Chapter 877: Impulse is the Devil

“Then when will this battle be over?”The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng asked.

“The battlefield is ever-changing, and there is no fixed date. However, I believe in Abba and Boshu’s abilities. They will definitely lead the Daliang soldiers to victory.”

This was the truth.

“Xuan Cheng, since you’re married to Boshu, you have to have confidence in him.”

“He is a citizen of Daliang, and Daliang belongs to Your Majesty, your royal brother. If he protects Daliang, isn’t that protecting your royal brother’s kingdom and protecting you?”

“There may be all kinds of rumors in the future. It may be misinformation, or it may be deliberately bewitched by people with ill intentions. You should stick to your beliefs and not let Boshu worry about you during the war, okay?”

After he finished speaking, he patted the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng’s head.

“My royal brother has so many subjects, Daliang has so many citizens, and he doesn’t lack a single treasure tree.”The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was completely focused on Xiao Baoshu and did not care about anything else.

Xiao Baoxin let out a long sigh of relief.

Anyway, it was most important to appease the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng. As for the rest… He would wait for her to grow up.

If he could really grow by relying on someone else’s mouth, that would not be life. That would be a dream. Everyone would live.

“At least don’t be rash in the future. If you have anything to ask me first. The emperor is now worried about the country’s affairs, internal and external, don’t go up and add to the chaos.”Xiao Baoxin’s advice to her meant that he really treated her as a sister. Otherwise, she really didn’t have to worry about her royal brother and sister.

However, the Emperor was narrow-minded and had paranoia. The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was also a quick-witted person who spoke without thinking.

She was also worried that Emperor Yong Ping would commit a taboo again after a long period of time. After all, he was married into the Xiao family and had great power.

That was why he reminded her cautiously,”The emperor is the emperor after all, it’s true that he’s your elder brother, but in front of the officials, the emperor is supreme. You can’t say anything that will make others say things, right?”

The eldest princess of Xuancheng nodded. She was not stupid, she was just impulsive.

Impulse was the devil.

She also knew that Emperor Yong Ping’s royal brother treated her really well. He was really petty. No one could say anything about him.

“I will go to the palace to apologize to Imperial Older Brother.”

Xiao Baoxin reminded him,”Don’t say that the Xie family has sent men of sacrifice to follow Baoshu. I’m worried that someone will make a fuss about this. If the Emperor believes it, what will he think?””

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng could understand this point.”My royal brother is so petty. I know.”

For the sake of her Baoshu, she would rather let it rot in her stomach.

She didn’t think much of it. Which aristocratic family didn’t have thousands of men of sacrifice? Even if the Xiao family had military power, they had a group of trusted generals even if they didn’t have men of sacrifice. It was all on the surface.

However, she also knew that the wind in Jiankang City was blowing towards the Xie family. Even if there was a war, it could not stop others from joining the Xie family.

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng understood Xiao Baoxin’s worries.

He thought that they had a tacit understanding.

“Actually, if you had told me earlier, I wouldn’t have been worried. He didn’t need to go to the Imperial Palace, and his mother was worried sick.”The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng carefully complained.

Xiao Baoxin rolled his eyes,”Who knew you would believe everything?””

“Besides, I can’t leave the residence, so I don’t know what’s going on outside.”

The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng only realized it later. That’s right, Eldest Lady Xiao was still in the mourning period. She usually did not go out or interact with others.

It was her fault again.

“Big Niangzi, don’t take it to heart. I’m just worried that my mother will get sick or something. You don’t know, my mother’s mouth has been bubbling recently. I didn’t tell you because I was afraid you would worry.”

Xiao Bao Xin: So now, who is in the heart, she said, not afraid of her worry, again?

“Father has been on the battlefield for so many years, mother is used to it. This time I’m worried about Baoshu. It’s not convenient for me to move around during my filial piety period, so I’ll have to trouble you to take care of mother. Wait for me for a few days. I’ll go back to my mother’s house.”

“No need, no need. I’ll take care of Mother, what are you afraid of? Don’t let others gossip about you because of this.”

The Eldest Princess Princess of Xuancheng stopped him, afraid that Xiao Baoxin wouldn’t be able to see Madam Xie’s mouth full of bubbles when he returned.

She was indeed on fire and could eat anything, but it was a little exaggerated to have a mouth full of fire bubbles.

After saying that, he didn’t dare to stay any longer and left.”I have good news. I have to tell Mother about it. You don’t have to send me off. You said that you didn’t see many children. Next time I come, I’ll bring them gifts.”

Wasn’t the one who chased her into the house and howled at her a ‘child’?

Xiao Baoxin wanted to send her out, but the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng had already walked away in small steps, as if there were wild dogs chasing after her.

His legs were still in the air. Xiao Baoxin shook his head, withdrew it, and sat back down on the couch.

She couldn’t help but sigh. After a while, Xie Xian walked in from the outer room.”The Eldest Princess left?”

Xiao Baoxin nodded and shook his head helplessly.

“It wasn’t easy to lure her away.”

In fact, there were some men of sacrifice, but they were all protecting Xiao Baoshu and protecting the country. How could they have the leisure to worry about the rear and send news back daily?

It wasn’t like thunder and lightning would arrive in the blink of an eye from thousands of miles away.

It was a waste of manpower and resources. Unless it was important and urgent information, how could they use the 800-mile express?

“My heart is tired.” Xiao Baoxin plunged into Xie Xian’s arms.

“Who do you think is spreading this news?”

“There are many possibilities, but now is not the time to worry about this.””

What he valued most was that Sikong Xiao had been blocking North Wu for more than two months and still had no intention of leaving.

That was, the previous assumption that Northern Wu would chase after the rabbit with grass and run away after hitting the rake was wrong. Northern Wu was coming aggressively. It seemed that the King of Eastern Wu-no, it should be called the King of Wu now. The King of Wu was a combative and competitive person.

“The emperor is high and mighty, so many gossips don’t reach his ears. At least with the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng causing such a ruckus, the Emperor should know what kind of chaos it was outside. If he had the heart, he should investigate the person who spread the gossip.”

“Let’s wait and see.”

“Is the Emperor a man of heart?””

“Not only that, but there are many.” Xie Xian said with a smile.

Xiao Baoxin also laughed. Indeed, he was too scheming and paid attention to many things, so sometimes he couldn’t tell the priority. He felt more and more that Xie Xian didn’t want to hide his disdain for Emperor Yong Ping anymore.

He patted Xiao Baoxin’s head.

His Bao Xin was different from the rest, he had a strong heart.

Perhaps it was because she grew up in a family like Sikong Xiao’s, she had learned to be strong and to believe at a young age.

“In fact, we can only be strong and believe, right?”Xiao Baoxin shrugged. After all, they were so far away and could not do anything. “Father told me that he didn’t want him to come back victorious one day. Mother and I were already scared to death on his triumphant return.”
