Chapter 863: 863-Cheap Sell
My Ferocious Tigress Wife
Apart from Sikong Xiao, Xie Xian had not told anyone about the poisoning of Xie Xian on the way to Xiapi from Fuling. Naturally, Mother Xie was also unaware of it.
It was just his grandmotherâs daily worry, so Xie Xian silently accepted it.
Although he had left Jiankang City, the news from the city had never stopped sending him. In fact, he knew more than most people about their inner secrets.
However, the person who had poisoned him had not made any further moves after the first mistake. If it were not for the evidence, he would have thought that he was being paranoid.
âI think the emperor is just asking and will not carry it out.â
Xie Xian did not take it to heart. It was obviously impossible to implement it.
And now, the louder the voices against his return to the court, the more advantageous it would be for his future rise. He knew this very well.
How many people could not see Emperor Yong Pingâs actions?

Xiao Baoxin stayed in Yi An Hall for confinement while Xie Xian returned to Rong An Hall.
After two days of torment, in the blink of an eye, it was the day of the third washing. When Madam Xie saw Xie Xian, it was as if she had seen a ghost. He didnât even hear any news. Why did he come back? Other than hugging the child in her arms tightly, she was amazed at her son-in-lawâs thoughtfulness. His daughter, who had traveled a long way to give birth, had actually rushed back.
She was so excited that her eyes welled up with tears. She was so touched that she couldnât help it.
Old Xiao and Little Xiao of the Assassins Organization would have written a letter to their families, but there was no letter on the battlefield.
Fortunately, there was still the eldest princess of Xuancheng and her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. They were worried and denounced together. Fortunately, they had a companion.
Then, he looked at his son-in-law. He was really his son-in-law.
Her daughter had accumulated eight generations of virtue to find such a considerate person.
.. The only flaw was that it was too strong.
However, compared to other people, this was simply too much to count. Xiao Baoxin was happy and excited for his daughter. Then, he felt all kinds of envy and jealousy.
Xiao Baoxin: â I donât work at this time. Why canât I work with my mother? Itâs like a barrage of comments. Iâm useless.â
Because the Xie familyâs eldest son was still in mourning, the two families gathered together to hold a simple ceremony.
There was nothing else.
Madam Xie and the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng stayed in Yi âan Hall for a while longer. They did not get to see each other often, but they were always chased away by someone behind them.
Xie Xian, on the other hand, died halfway through the process and was dragged to Rong An Hall by Butler Qi.
Emperor Yong Ping was dressed in casual clothes and sat at the top of the main hall, sipping his tea. Yang Shao, who was also dressed in casual clothes, stood beside him. He had a sword by his waist. After seeing Xie Xian enter the room, he nodded slightly to indicate his intention.
âXie Qing, why did you come back in such a hurry? Zhen just received the news today and immediately came to see you. Are you alright?â
Why did he come back in such a hurry? Did he not know why today was? He must be worried about his wife. The sour water in Yang Shaoâs heart was about to stink.
The Emperor didnât know if he really didnât know or if he was pretending not to know.
Xie Xian hurriedly bowed.
âMy wife was about to give birth. Because she was pregnant with twins, she couldnât help but be worried, so I rushed back early.âHe was also honest and straightforward.
Yang Shao had no choice but to admit that Xie Xian had this kind of bearing, daring to say anything. Even if people knew that he was scheming, they still felt that this person was honest enough and worthy of trust. This was also a type of magic.
Emperor Yong Ping raised his eyebrows and nodded.
As expected.
One could imagine what kind of public opinion Xie Xian would receive after the news spread. Xie Xian was a smart person. He understood, and Xie Xian would understand. However, he still came back.
He was truly a hero who was short of breath and had long feelings for his daughter.
âZhen has heard that your wife and daughter are safe. Congratulations, Qing, for having both children.âHis eyes were filled with envy. Even if he had children now, he would still be terrified. He was afraid that he would not be able to raise them.
Now that the prince and princess had made a move, he was already paranoid. He was afraid that someone would do it behind his back again. He was already sick.
âAs long as you give birth safely, you can rest assured.â
Emperor Yong Ping didnât talk much and even stopped Xie Xian from asking for more tea. He didnât come to the Xie residence to drink tea.âI originally wanted the situation in Daliang to change and wanted to invite you back to the court to preside over the overall situation, but⦠The opposition was too loud. Even Xie Jiulang was worried that you wouldnât be able to handle the overwhelming opposition.âAfter saying that, he sighed.
Yang Shaoâs heart tightened inexplicably. The Emperor was too unkind. He was sold out just like that.
Fortunately, the Emperor was afraid of death and brought him along, so he didnât give the Emperor the chance to sell him off at a low price.
âAll the officials are right. Originally, the act of seizing emotions was helpless. Only generals would seize emotions and go to the battlefield to kill enemies for the country, replacing filial piety for their parents with the righteousness of the country.ââ Besides, the situation in Daliang isnât critical,â Xie Xian said calmly.â I believe in Sikong Xiaoâs ability and will be able to defeat the enemy.ââ
No matter who Emperor Yong Ping heard it from, it would not be as convincing as Xie Xian saying it once.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âFortunately, you are here.â
Yang Shao: What did Xie Xian say?!
Emperor Yong Ping had obviously gone all the way. At first, Sikong Xiao and Xie Xian stood on his side and helped him ascend the throne. After that, no one could surpass them. Although the Emperor was suspicious, timid, and afraid of death, he had a reliance on Xie Xian that far exceeded others.
â Back then, I was glad that you were here.â Emperor Yong Ping pulled Xie Xian to sit down beside him and poured out his grievances.â Ever since I ascended the throne, I have never been able to sit firmly on this dragon throne. If itâs not this rebellion, itâs that rebellion. Look at King Lin Chuan. Do you remember what you said back then? Heâs loyal to the emperor and patriotic. The honest and dull bookworm actually rebelled against meâ¦â
âWhy is Zhen so bitter?â
âHave you caught Yuan Chen and Yuan Balang?â Xie Xian suddenly asked.
Emperor Yong Ping hated Prince Huaiyang to the core. Yuan Chen, who had plotted a rebellion with Prince Huaiyang, was not any better. He wished he could tear him apart alive. Unfortunatelyâ¦
âI didnât catch him.â
âYour Majesty, have you ever wondered how Prince Linchuan knew that Prince Huaiyang was killed so quickly? How could he be so sure that His Majesty would attack the Imperial Family?â
Emperor Yong Pingâs brain was also not for nothing.
â Are you saying that this is all because of Yuan Chen?!âHe gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter. What a sissy! But why didnât Prince Huaiyang sit on him to death?
âHow did you know?â he asked. Whatâs the source of the news?â
âIâm just making a reasonable guess. I donât have any source of information.â
What a joke. Back then, he had sent the Xie Clanâs men of sacrifice to help Xiao Baoshu fight in the Jing State for half a year. In the end, he had hidden several spies in the Jing State. How could he say that?
âAfter all, this is a very reasonable explanation, isnât it?â
âThatâs trueâ¦â Emperor Yongping was skeptical.
âIf the Yuan family has already been beheaded by me, Yuan Chenâs entire family will be considered dead. No one in Jiankang City will be able to restrain him.âAlthough it solved his doubts, it really didnât have any substantial effect. In any case, King Linchuan had rebelled.
