Chapter 875: 875-Lost in Mind

And Yongzhou, where Linchuan King was located, would be attacked by Yang Shao and Jiangxia King.

After defending for more than a month, the interior of Yongzhou was already in chaos.

If it was just a civil war in Daliang, they could still fight. However, there was an invasion from the foreign enemy, Northern Wu.

There was a disagreement within King Linchuan. Some people thought that it was better to join forces with North Wu and attack. They would directly break through the opening of Jingzhou and take Jiankang. However, there were also those who were unwilling to collude with foreign countries, so they thought that it would be better to surrender to the imperial court at this time and gain a reputation for loyalty.

If Sikong Xiao really destroyed the enemy and turned around to surround King Jiang Xia, how could they resist?

After several days of stalemate, King Linchuan killed two generals who had been advocating surrender to the imperial court. Unfortunately, a few nights later, his head was cut off by someone close to him. He opened the city gate and surrendered to King Jiang Xia.

Finally, there was good news.

..

However, two days after the news came back, before Jiankang City had even reached boiling point, there was news of Xiao Baoshu being injured.

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng could not take it anymore. She ran directly to Taiji Palace and asked the Emperor to order King Jiangxia to meet Sikong Xiao and attack the enemy. It sounded nice, but he actually wanted the Emperor to send someone to protect Xiao Baoshu.

The argument in Taiji Palace didn’t come to a conclusion, so the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng left the palace and went straight to the Xie residence.

Her husband was in danger. She even dared to barge into Taiji Palace, let alone the Xie Manor. She did not care about mourning and not socializing. She was not going to socialize, she was going to ask for help!

She, the Eldest Princess, couldn’t make a decision with the Emperor, but wasn’t there someone who could?

She had a belly full of thoughts and was about to tell Xiao Baoxin all her grievances. However, when she saw Xiao Baoxin, she could not hold back her tears. She cried out and rushed into Xiao Baoxin’s arms.

Xie Yan and Xie Qi were so scared that they shivered.

The eldest princess of Xuancheng was a true person. She cried so hard that her voice shook the sky.

Xie Qi had a more genuine personality. She had never seen such an elder before, so she immediately suppressed him. She cried out loud, her nose and tears flowing. She was in sync with the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng.

The eldest princess of Xuancheng was not embarrassed, but Xiao Baoxin was embarrassed for her.

She thought that this person was here for Xiao Baoshu’s matter, but Xie Xian had already informed her, so she knew what was going on. He wanted to bring the children to meet the Eldest Princess, but who would have thought that the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng would be so inexperienced and start howling in front of the children.

Xiao Baoxin quickly ordered the nanny and said to Xie Yan,””You can leave too. Continue practicing your calligraphy.”

In between, he went to support the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng without any delay.

“Big lady…Treasure tree…”

If he didn’t know what was going on, he would have been scared to death by the eldest princess of Xuancheng.

“I know, don’t worry.”Xiao Baoxin gave Cai Wei a look and invited the four palace maids that the Eldest Princess of Xuan City had brought over.

“How can I not worry? “Imperial Brother didn’t listen to me–” Xuan Cheng cried so hard that his makeup was smudged.

“Big lady, have you heard that Baoshu is injured? Why didn’t Jiang Xia King go meet Abba and Boshu? Did he want to be the second King Linchuan? Didn’t he know that Northern Wu had sent 100,000 troops south?”

Because Xiao Baoshu had been sent to Jingzhou to quell the rebellion, the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng wished she could get someone to dig out the Jingzhou Annals.

He paid more attention to it every day and went to the palace frequently to inquire about the situation in Jingzhou.

Unfortunately, Emperor Yong Ping was busy and the Empress Dowager had just died, so he had no time to pay attention to her.

Empress Xiao was enthusiastic, but she did not know about the previous dynasty. Asking was the same as not asking. At most, she would say some empty words to comfort the people, but it could not soothe the fragile little heart of the eldest princess of Xuancheng.

Although Xie Furen was the matriarch of a manor, she did not have many eyes and ears. She was just following others ‘advice and passing on some personal words.

There was no reliable source of information to be found.

Xiao Baoshu did not have Sikong Xiao’s legacy, but he did not like to write letters to his family when he went out to fight. Don’t look at how he was so close to the eldest princess of Xuancheng in the fu that even his own mother was annoyed to see him, but when he left the fu, he didn’t even have a decent letter.

Other than the letter he received when he first arrived at Jing State, there was no other news from the Xiao father and son.

Now, what scared Madam Xie and the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng out of their wits was the rumor from Jiankang City that King Jiangxia had the intention to rebel and wanted to drag Sikong Xiao to death. He wanted to push the father and son of the Xiao family to the front line to fight while he enjoyed the fruits of his labor.

Then, there was the news of Xiao Baoshu falling off his horse.

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was furious after hearing this.

“Big lady, my royal brother will listen to brother-in-law’s words. Let brother-in-law talk to my royal brother and ask Jiang Xia King to quickly go and support Boshu…If he didn’t go, then let Yang Shao go. Boshu, Boshu, if anything happened to him…Woah-”

“I don’t want to live anymore!”

The last sentence was hidden in the heart of the eldest princess of Xuancheng. Xiao Baoxin was shocked when he heard it. He could see how much Xuancheng loved his younger brother.

“Don’t cry first. Listen to me. Baoshu is fine.”

“How did you know?” The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng did not believe it. ” I said I was injured and fell off my horse-”

“Who saw it?” Xiao Baoxin asked.

“The person who sent this message saw it.”

“..”You can be more naive.

Xiao Baoxin took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears of the eldest princess of Xuancheng.” Listen to me first. None of us are on the frontlines, so we don’t know what happened. Do you know which of those rumors is true and which is false?”

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng sniffed, her beautiful cat eyes bloodshot.

“Why would anyone lie? Who didn’t know that the entire world was staring at the Jing and Yong Prefectures?”

“Who knows who is behind this? Think about it, how did these words spread so far away from Jiankang? Why didn’t Jiang Xia King go to support them? If he wanted to rebel, he could just raise his troops and rebel. Was there a need to be passive? Aren’t you afraid that the Emperor will punish him when he returns to Jiankang?”

“But Boshu is injured?””Eldest Lady, why are you so sure that Baoshu is not injured?””

Xiao Baoshu sighed. How did she know?

How could she know?

Even if Xie Xian had news to send back, it would be limited. After all, they were separated by mountains and rivers.

“I believe in Boshu and Abba. They will definitely come back victorious.”

“Just because I believe you.”

“It’s light.”

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was unhappy. If her Xie Xian went to the battlefield, she didn’t know if the Eldest Lady would be able to keep her cool.

Xiao Baoxin did not blame the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng for cursing in her heart. This was human nature. The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng valued Xiao Baoshu more than anything else. That was why she was punished for every action she made. She could not tolerate others not taking Xiao Baoshu’s matter seriously at all.

She believed that Xiao Baoshu was injured, and the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was probably in more pain than him.
