My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 841: Chapter 841-Furious

“Get lost!” Madam Xie glared at Xiao Baoshu and finally turned around to leave.

The eldest princess of Xuancheng was also a martial artist, so it was difficult to pretend that she did not hear it. After all, Madam Xie’s temper had flared up, so she didn’t really hold her voice back.

“Mother has misunderstood.” She blushed and glared at Xiao Baoshu coquettishly.

She was never even willing to glare at him. Wasn’t it a form of flirting?

“Mother, you misunderstood. We didn’t do anything just now! “Xiao Baoshu stood up for his wife and tried to explain to the outside.

The palace maid outside thought,”What exactly is going on inside?”

Madam Xie came back and lifted the curtain to reveal her brain. Xiao Baoshu was shocked.”What are you doing? How scary is that? I’m not lying-”

“Don’t tell anyone. Neither of you can tell anyone!”After saying that, he looked at the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng.

The eldest princess of Xuancheng quickly said,” I will listen to Mother. If Mother doesn’t allow me to say it, I will keep it to myself. I won’t mention it to anyone.” Mother can rest assured, but Mother really misunderstood just now… We really didn’t do anything- ”

“Alright, alright.” Mrs. Xie expressed that she believed him.

If that was the case, she would believe him. There was no need to hold on to it. “You can’t do that in the future. You should recuperate first.”

Madam Xie hurried back to her own courtyard after giving her instructions. She then talked to Sikong Xiao about Xie Xian’s personal safety.

“You don’t have to say that. I sent fifty more men to chase after them in the afternoon.”By the time she realized it, it was already too late. “Alright, take a rest. I’m just watching you wander around.”

“Fifty people?” Madam Xie sat down. Is it enough?”

Sikong Xiao said that she was his mother-in-law.

He had already sent the best of his personal guards over, and it was still not enough? If it wasn’t enough, there would be no one by his side!

###

Under Sikong Xiao’s repeated orders, Madam Xie had not been to the Xie residence for a long time. She was afraid that she would not be able to hold her mouth shut, while Sikong Xiao was afraid that his daughter would find out that he was an accomplice if she touched him.

Xiao Baoxin, on the other hand, was in Yi An Hall, paying no attention to what was going on outside the window and focusing on his pregnancy.

She had to concentrate. The older she was, the more her stomach swelled up like a balloon. She even stopped her usual practice. This was not a joke. She only walked in circles for half an hour every day.

After Xie Xian arrived at Xiapi, he sent a letter to the Xie Residence to inform his family that he had arrived safely.

There were no more words.

Until the end of the year, the Xie family had been very peaceful, and nothing out of the ordinary had happened.

Xie Qing was promoted to the third rank of the casual attendant at the beginning of December, and the second branch was finally able to hold their heads high for once.

Empress Xiao had been recuperating in Jiaofang Palace for more than two months after the death of her Di son. Finally, she came out and took charge of the six palaces. On the other hand, the Empress Dowager had been bedridden for a few months and her body was getting worse.

Everyone in and out of the palace was guessing whether the Empress Dowager would be able to survive the new year. Emperor Yong Ping had privately ordered his subordinates to prepare for the Empress Dowager’s funeral.

Jiankang City was still the same Jiankang City. There was no change because of who was missing and who was dead.

The sun rose in the east and set in the west. There was always news that updated the old news. The days that should be passed were still as usual.

The only thing that bothered Emperor Yong Ping was that Qin Er Ya that the eldest princess of Xuan City had brought back. He could not ignore her. That county magistrate was too lawless. After listening to the princess of Xuancheng finish talking to him, he sent the censor, Yan Dong, to urge and supervise the Linchuan King to investigate and punish the county magistrate involved.

In the end, less than half a month after Yan Dong left, the signing officer sent to Jingzhou returned to Jiankang to report. In front of Emperor Yongping, he bluntly said that King Linchuan was not being considerate and criticized the emperor many times in front of his subordinates.

Moreover, by writing books and biographies, there are many words that insult the former emperor and today’s emperor.

Emperor Yong Ping was stunned after hearing this. He had thought that he had killed all those who should be killed and only a few young ones who should not be killed. Although Prince Lin Chuan was old, he had always been obedient. Even during the rebellion of the kings, he did not collude with them. He trusted Prince Lin Chuan.

In the end, how did this happen?

The signing officer cried bitterly. In the territory of King Linchuan of the Jing state, he did not dare to make a move. He had all kinds of humble behavior. Otherwise, in his words, it was uncertain whether he could even leave the Jing state. Everything was for Liang, everything was for the emperor. Anyway, it was a fancy way to show his loyalty.

According to the Daliang system, the imperial court would send a signature officer from a poor family to every prince or high official who went out to guard a place.

When a young prince was not capable, the signing officer could help him handle government affairs. However, when a prince was older or the person guarding the pass was a high official of the court, these signing officers would become spies. The Emperor would openly place spies beside them.

It was a monitoring system.

All of the officials were from poor families, which also determined that they were in opposition to the guards, which was extremely beneficial to the emperor.

Normally, the signing officer would return to the central court once every three years. He only needed to record and report to the court.

There was still half a year to go, but he came back so early. In his words, he saw Prince Linchuan’s disloyal heart. He had packed up and left in advance. He did not even say goodbye and sneakily ran back from Jingzhou.

Emperor Yong Ping was furious and called the ministers to Taiji Palace for a meeting.

The ministers were instantly divided into two factions. One faction suggested waiting for the Censor Zhongcheng to reply to the letter to confirm the local situation in Jingzhou. The second faction did not believe what the signing officer said at all- -or suspected that there were many false accusations.

Liu Dianqian was also a man of courage. He expressed that he would rather die to prove his innocence. He could tolerate people saying that he had a despicable background, a vulgar personality, and ordinary talent. However, if they said that he was not loyal to the country and deliberately provoked the relationship between the royal family, he would never admit it.

He crashed into the pillar of Taiji Palace. Fortunately, the general of the pavilion was quick and saved him. Just like that, his head was bleeding.

With this collision, one-third of the courtiers immediately changed sides.

Emperor Yong Ping immediately sent an imperial edict to transfer Prince Linchuan to the capital. This time, it was not the Imperial Censor who personally went on the road, but the imperial edict that was sent directly to the door.

However, he had to wait for another half a month for this reply. It was not until the twelfth lunar month that a memorial from Jingzhou was sent to the court. King Linchuan was sick.

If he was sick, he would not be able to rush to the court.

He directly rejected her.

Emperor Yong Ping was completely furious this time. If he had only believed half of Liu Dian’s words before, he was now trustworthy. Otherwise, why would Prince Linchuan be afraid of the imperial court and not come out?

He didn’t believe that he was sick.

It was such a coincidence that he was sick when he came to Shang Kang?

At the same time, the Imperial Censor, Yan Dong, had not sent back any news, which was also a knot in Emperor Yong Ping’s heart.

Yan Dong had always been a smart and capable person. It was impossible for him to do things so carelessly. After leaving for three to four months, there was no news at all. He was afraid that he had either defected to King Linchuan or died an unnatural death.
