Pan Ziluâs mouth twitched when he heard that. He hadnât even met the emperor yet. Could he think of something better? Why did he have to drag this into an accident? He was just a clean kid. It wouldnât be that bad.
But Second Uncleâs heart, he was grateful.
His father did not value him and did not take him seriously. If not for Second Uncleâs help, he would have been a useless bastard son who lived under others for the rest of his life. No one would recommend him to stand in front of the emperor.
âSecond Uncle, donât worry. Zilu will never forget his original intentions and work for the common people. I will let Abba look at me seriously. âIn addition,â he raised his hands and bowed to the ground, first to Pan Shuo, then to Xie Xian.âI donât dare to express my gratitude, but I will remember this kindness in my heart. Zilu never failed his second uncle and Shangshuâs recommendation.â
âThatâs good.â Xie Xian stood up and was about to leave.
Pan Shuo followed behind, full of interest.ââDidnât you say that you would only see my nephew in two days? Fortunately, heâs here today. Otherwise, wouldnât you have come for nothing? Donât go, stay and letâs have a drink-Iâll drink, you drink tea?â
âNo, itâs rare for me to take a break. Iâll go home and rest.âXie Xian didnât even turn his head and didnât hesitate at all.
Pan Shuo nudged Xie Xian with his shoulders.â You must miss your wife. Youâre much more diligent when you go back to the residence nowâ¦â No, you used to be quite diligent. You have too little social connections.â
âHowever, your own family is already in a mess, and youâre still thinking about whatâs happening here. Iâm really grateful.â
Silently following behind, Panzi Lu covered his face. Second Uncle couldnât speak.
Since he knew that the other partyâs house was already in a mess, he should not mention it anymore. Wasnât this sprinkling salt on his wounds?
However, Xie Xian seemed to be saying that he was not and remained unmoved.
âAre you going into the palace later?â he asked.
Pan Shuo was stunned for a moment.â No, I want to rest at home.ââ
âShangshu may have a confessionâ Pan Zilu said softly. If it wasnât for the fact that he was afraid that their actions would be too obvious and give others a bad impression, he would have leaned over and bit Pan Shuoâs ear.
Xie Xian glanced at Pan Zilu and smiled without saying anything.
âIf you have anything to say, just say it. What do you want to do?âPan Shuo was also straightforward. If there was anything, just give him the order. Donât play games with him. The main thing was that he didnât understand and messed up again.
âJust go to the palace and take a walk. Then, send your personal servant to my residence.âThere were some things that Xie Xian couldnât say too clearly. How could he admit in front of everyone that he was purely bluffing Third Uncle?
It was one thing for everyone to have a tacit understanding, but if he said it in person, wouldnât it seem like he wasnât kind?
Pan Shuo patted him on the shoulder.â Alright, wait for my news!â
Pan Zilu sent the two of them out of the mansion and waited until they got into the car. After the car slowly moved, he turned around and returned to the mansion.

When Xie Xian returned to Rong An Hall, Xie Wan had already left. Xiao Baoxin was looking through the accounts of Rong An Hall. She had nothing to do during the day, so she called the two nannies that Xie Xian had invited from Madam Yuan over. One was to train the four maids, and the other was to make it convenient for her to ask if she did not understand.
The four maids learned from the two nannies.
âAre you busy?â Xie Xian walked in and shocked the maids and nannies in the room. They hurriedly bowed and greeted him.
Xiao Baoxin closed the account book and walked forward.âIâm just looking around. You left in a hurry this morning. Have you had lunch outside?â
âI want to come back and eat with you.â Xie Xian said with a smile.
The four maids were used to seeing these two people being lovey-dovey, but Granny Fang and Granny Zhao had only heard of them and had never seen them in person. Now that he had seen it today, he knew the rumorsâ¦There was no mistake. This young couple had always created a feeling that no one else existed and that there were only the two of them in the world.
It was suffocating envy.
Xiao Baoxin saw that it was almost noon, so he asked the maids to prepare the meal. The two nannies knew when to advance and when to retreat. Without waiting for instructions, they took the initiative to leave.
When only the two of them were left in the room, Xiao Baoxin asked,ââWhy did you suddenly leave the residence? Did something happen to Third Uncle?â
âItâs nothing serious.â Xie Xian smiled.â I told you yesterday, and today Iâll agree to it. Third Uncle has been removed from his post. He didnât come to find me and want me to give him a chance.â
Xiao Baoxinâs eyes widened. What should she say? The Emperor acted so quickly?
âThen go outâ¦Are you going to the palace to meet the Saint?â
âAm I that stupid?â The emperor just gave the order, and 1 went into the palace to plead for mercyâ¦Even if the emperor doesnât remember it, the officials will know. Wouldnât those with ill intentions use this to attack me?â
âDo you think Iâm your third uncle?â
Xie Xian didnât keep her in suspense and told her that he had gone to the Pan residence to meet Pan Shuoâs nephew.
âHis nephew is much more reliable than him. His brain works quickly and he is also very radical. I think the emperor will like him.â
The Pan family was a relative of the royal family, and they were naturally hostile to the decaying aristocrats. They were the talents that Emperor Yu Heng urgently needed.
Xie Xian was obviously letting himself go in front of her. He was starting to pay less and less attention to his image. Whatever was in his heart would directly come out. If she didnât hide it, she would seal his little poisonous mouth.
It was not easy to hide oneâs true nature around the person who accompanied one day and night.
This was also the result of his slight modification. Otherwise, his words would only be sharper.
As the two of them chatted, the maids brought more food to the table.
It was unknown whether it was because he was too tired, or because he walked circles every day, or because he was forced to eat more by Xiao Baoxin every day, Xie Xianâs appetite had clearly increased. In the past, he could eat one pancake, but now he could eat two.
It was half of Xiao Baoxinâs.
Xie Xian didnât know if he should say that his wife was good at eating, but he gave up on this question after asking himself for some time. Even if he hesitated for a moment, the answer was no.
âHave another bowl of soup.â
Xie Xian subconsciously took the bowl of soup that Xiao Baoxin handed over and drank the fish soup in small mouthfuls.
When he raised his head, Xiao Baoxin had already finished eating and had asked the maid to bring water up to wash his hands and rinse his mouth. His wife was like this. She was straightforward and agile in everything she did, like a gust of wind.
âI want to sleep after eating.â Xie Xian was in a daze.â Qingqing, letâs go to bed and take a nap.â
âWhat are you doing? Youâre sleeping right after eating.âXiao Baoxin was still in high spirits. Fie pulled Xie Xian and walked out. âTake a walk in the courtyard to digest your food.â
Xie Xian wanted to cry but had no tears. He wanted to sleep.
âYouâre in poor health because of this. Youâre not diligent in your limbs and canât differentiate between five grains.âXiao Baoxin said ruthlessly.
Xie Xian thought,âYouâre ruthless!â
Iâll endure it.
He hated that he had walked in circles for an hour in the morning. Who knew that he would still have to walk after eating.
â Qing Qing-â Before Xie Xian could finish his sentence, he felt a hard push on his back. He lost his balance and staggered two steps forward. He almost fell to the ground and was pulled back by someone..
