Chapter 477 - 477: Power Is a Good Thing
The princess of Xuancheng looked at Xiao Baoxin’s belly as if she was a rare treasure.”It’s only been half a month, but you seem to have grown up again.”
“Yeah, we’re together every day, and we feel different every day.””
“It’s said that those who have bodies will become ugly. Why aren’t you ugly at all?”Xuan Cheng shook his head and praised. The next sentence made the other three laugh until they cried,
“If only I were like you in the future.”
Zhen: ‘Mother, where did you hand over these idiots??’
Thinking back to his previous life, Ah Niang’s friends were all extremely normal noble ladies. Why was it that after being reborn, there were not many normal people around him?
Or was it that when he saw it in his previous life, the butcher knife of time had already killed most of the pigs, and the edges had been smoothed out, becoming normal?
Two days before the marriage of Princess Xuancheng and Xiao Baoshu, Emperor Yong Ping had already informed the Ministry of Rites that Xiao Baoshu would be transferred back to Jiankang for the marriage after the wedding of the Emperor and Empress. This was no different from announcing it to the world.
Emperor Yong Ping and Xie Xian talked about everything. Whether they had any plans or wanted to probe, their mouths were still loose, but they were very tight-lipped with Princess Xuan Cheng.
Basically, whenever the Ministry of Rites found out, the Princess of Xuancheng would find out. It would only take about four hours.
After Emperor Yu Heng died, Emperor Yong Ping ascended the throne. Princess Xuan Cheng was his only family member, and he was considerate of his sister.
This marriage was essentially a political marriage. The good thing was that the young man and young lady of both families were quite satisfied. However, after the Wang Clan intervened, the originally good situation had taken a turn for the worse.
Now that there were no obstacles, how could he not know what Xuan Cheng was thinking?
He was really afraid that there would be any more trouble and make Princess Xuancheng happy for nothing.
He was also afraid that the princess of Xuancheng would be too happy and reveal herself early, making others laugh at her.
As expected, ever since Princess Xuancheng found out, she had not gone back. She had a bad habit of laughing in the wind. She was so beautiful that she could not even look at the capital of Eternal Peace.
She was counting on Xiao Baoshu to come back safely. Even if he came back to wreak havoc, he had to complete the marriage of Princess Xuancheng.
Ever since the marriage was settled, Princess Xuancheng’s heart was at ease and her state of mind was also broadened.
She and Emperor Yong Ping were brother and sister, and no matter how close they were, they could not be more intimate than the two of them. In the inner palace, no one dared to provoke them, even more so than Emperor Yu Heng.
Even the Empress Dowager was closer to her than before.
It wasn’t that the Empress Dowager had treated her badly in the past. She had always been good to her. Even after Noble Consort Liu’s death, she hadn’t distanced herself from her like others. But now, it was even better. She doted on her so much that she could do anything she wanted. This was something that she had never done before.
Not even when Emperor Yu Heng was alive.
Princess Xuancheng vaguely felt that power was a good thing. Even if it was his own family, with these blessings, it was much more effective than the golden light protection of Buddha and Bodhisattva.
“.. You all know that my marriage with Xiao Baoshu is set, right?”
The sudden appearance of such a sentence stunned Xiao Baoxin and the others.
This was something that could be said so openly, right?
“It’s easy to handle if you all know. Otherwise, if I ask you about Xiao Baoshu, you might laugh at me.”What she meant was that since they were all insiders, she would not hide anything.
It was actually a very reasonable sentence. The few of them were actually speechless.
Princess Xuancheng was definitely the only one who could make Xiao Baoxin speak his mind and make her speechless. Every time he choked, he could not speak. When he came back to his senses, he could swallow half a pot of water.
“Big lady, tell me about Xiao Baoshu. How did he become a general and quell the chaos outside? Why is he so powerful?” The princess of Xuancheng seemed to have already married someone she could play with in the future. She had leveled up and turned into a deep admiration.
When his thoughts changed, his vision also changed.
It was only hearsay in the palace. Moreover, her marriage had not been decided yet. Which palace maid or eunuch dared to gossip about an outsider in front of her? She had occasionally heard the empress dowager and the nanny beside her mention a few words, and it was comforting to her old age.
Of course, he was consoled by the state of Daliang. At such a young age, Jiankang City was actually so useful in wartime. A stubborn stone had turned into unpolished jade.
Not to mention that Sikong Xiao’s father was like a dog, but Daliang Heaven should not be cut off.
Not to mention that there were many talents in the court. This was a sign that it should be prosperous.
The Empress Dowager said a few superstitious words, but Emperor Yong Ping actually heard it in his heart and pondered that it was indeed the case. It was all fate. Otherwise, would the throne be his?
Xue Mu had died. Considering that he was loyal to the country and the king, the title of nobility was directly passed on to his son. He could not let such a loyal minister and good general die with his eyes closed. He could not let outsiders see the emperor being heartless and become the governor of Nangun Prefecture.
It was just the friendship between monarch and minister, but unexpectedly his son Xue Quan was a silent gourd, after taking office he actually won two battles. Later on, Xie Xian had planned out strategies and dispatched his troops to coordinate with the other local armies, frequently reporting victories.
In the history of the Epsilon Empire, Xue Mu and Xiao Yun were the two great wargod level figures. Xue Mu had experienced defeat when he was a fledgling, but Xiao Yun had killed gods and buddhas along the way, known as the ever-victorious general.
After Xue Mu’s death, the imperial court was worried that there was insufficient combat strength, but…Look!
On the left was Xue Quan, and on the right was Xiao Baoshu. They were all rising stars, and the recovery of the country was just around the corner.
He liked Xue Quan and Xiao Baoshu more and more, especially Xiao Baoshu, his future brother-in-law.
If Xue Quan had not married a wife long ago and his father had just died, the Imperial Capital of Yong Ping would have found a princess from the Imperial Family to arrange a marriage for him.
Princess Xuancheng’s heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat. This was her future husband. How did he suddenly rise up? She had to know.
Xiao Ning covered her face with her hand and smiled.
Wang Qiong only looked at Xiao Baoxin. No one knew better than her.
[I wonder if my uncle is so brave?]
In his previous life, the Xiao family fell. When his maternal grandfather died, the Xiao family fell apart. His uncle was also implicated and died in prison. That was the pain in mother’s heart for the rest of her life. In this life, all these had changed. He never thought that he would actually go to the battlefield and be conferred the title of general.
He was actually a hero.
It was just that he had found an idiot princess to be his wife. This was obviously not in line with the usual routine of heroes.
However, living was better than dying. Having a wife was better than not having a wife at all.
Xiao Baoxin rubbed her belly. She had never asked about Xiao Baoshu’s fate. To her, it was not true. As long as she reversed the current situation, she could change the future that was predetermined. As expected, she did it.
But now that she suddenly found out from her old son, she felt sour in her heart..
