Chapter 933: 933-Collapse
My Ferocious Tigress Wife
Ever since Jin Jin entered the Xie residence, he had not heard of anything in the world. He only knew how to eat. Why did he suddenly become interested in Fifteen Wang? And how did he find out about the marriage between the Wang and Chu families that had caused a sensation back then, but was now a thing of the past?
Jin Jin said that he was trying to climb up the social ladder. Perhaps he had been set up by someone to climb up the social ladder.
Xie Xian found it a little funny. This kid, Chu An, was indeed a promising one. He was only a few years old, yet he was already scheming against his stepfather.
Actually, whether it was Wang Shiwuâs mother or Chu An, they were not at ease staying in the Xie family.
However, the Xie familyâs Grand Madam was here, and with her pressuring, even if Thirteenth Madam Wang wanted to move out of the residence, the old lady would not be willing.
The Xie family didnât have those bad habits of supporting the high and stepping on the low. However, no matter what, there would definitely be distractions if there were too many people. It wouldnât be obvious on the surface, but in private, it would definitely be the main family.
The few rooms in the Xie family were not equal to a bowl of water, not to mention that Wang Shiwuâs mother lived in the Xie family. Although all the tools and dowry were spent by Wang Shiwuâs mother, she was not surnamed Xie, after all, so it was inevitable to be treated differently.
Chu An probably saw it and hid it in his heart. He wanted to find a person to rely on for Wang Shiwuâs mother.
He was adopted as the fourth son of the Chu family, but his father had died when he reached the fourth branch. He had always lived with Thirteenth Wangâs mother.
Although Wang Shiwuâs mother didnât give birth to him, she raised him as her own, and provided him with the best food and clothing. Whatever the Xie familyâs young masters used, his would only be better and not worse. He did not want to feel disappointed.
Chu An was young, but he was not stupid. In fact, he was far smarter than his peers.
Wang Shiwuâs mother treated him well, how could he not know?
He only knew how to treat his mother well. He had only obtained some vague images of Chu Silang from the memories of Wang Shiwuâs mother. Moreover, Shisu âniang Wang did not have much of an impression of Chu Silang. After all, they had only met when they were young and did not actually live together. There was not much practical content left for her to reminisce about, and it was unknown how much of it had been embellished by her memories.
..
âChu An picked it?â
After Jin Jin left, Xiao Baoxin could not help but sigh. He could not blame Xie Yan for always looking at Chu An with such an attitude. He was only a few years old, yet he was already so scheming. Xie Yan had no place in him.
âLooks like it.â Xie Xian looked at Xiao Baoxin. Since he was not involved in this matter, it was not his turn to get involved.
However, Xiao Baoxin had always focused on whether Wang Shiwuâs mother had not forgotten about Chu Silang and whether she was in the mood to accept a new relationship. He did not take Wang Shiwuâs awkward position in the Xie residence into consideration at all.
He hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he didnât say anything.
Xiao Baoxin had her own way of doing things, and it was precisely because of this that she had no lack of close friends around her. Those were really straight to the point, and everything could be said directly.
This might be the so-called aura.
What kind of aura attracted what kind of person.
Xie Xian thought that he was meticulous and calculative, so it was inevitable that he wasnât sincere enough and couldnât compare to Xiao Baoxin.
She didnât consider Wang Shiwuâs intention of living under someone elseâs roof. If she opened her mouth, would Wang Shiwuâs mother think that she was implying something? This was Xiao Baoxinâs style. He was careless and didnât care.
Xiao Baoxin and Wang Shiwuâs mother were two people with different temperaments. They had known each other for seven or eight years. Even if Wang Shiwuâs mother felt awkward when she heard it, she would definitely come back to her senses after a while and know what kind of person Xiao Baoxin was.
Xie Xian had taken all of this into account. Seeing Xiao Baoxin sighing and not knowing how to say this, he could not help but laugh.
He really couldnât stop worrying.
âYouâre still laughing!â Xiao Baoxin rolled his eyes.
In fact, Jin Jin was indeed a good person. If he did not count on everything, she would not have to be so troubled and reject him directly.
âDonât worry. Did Chu An pick this for you? Just go ahead and say it. Whether it works or not, the mother and son will decide.âXie Xianâs words hit the nail on the head.
Thatâs right, she had already passed Chu Anâs test, so why was her head so big?
Xiao Baoxin slapped his thigh and his eyes lit up. He got up and was about to leave when he bumped into the people outside.
Xie Xian didnât get a good look at the person who had just arrived, and his face fell.
âWho is so reckless and impudent?â His voice was filled with ice.
He didnât see it, but Xiao Baoxin saw it clearly. He was a little eunuch with delicate skin and tender flesh. His small face was so tender that water could be squeezed out of it.
Not only did he see it clearly, but he could also feel the endless fear just by standing beside him. His body trembled.
Immediately, Xiao Baoxin felt bad. Bad memories surfaced in his mind again.
She turned her head to look at Xie Xian. The two of them exchanged a look. Xie Xian immediately understood and dismissed the steward following behind the young eunuch.
When the young eunuch saw that there were no outsiders in the room, he threw himself into Xie Xianâs arms. He hugged Xie Xianâs thigh and fell to his knees with a plop. He sobbed,
âGeneral Wei, Pushe, save me!â
âThe Emperor has passed away!â
It wasnât just the young eunuch. Xiao Baoxin and Xie Xianâs heads buzzed when they heard this, feeling as if it had happened again yesterday.
Six years!
âEmperor, whatâs wrong?â Xiao Baoxin stepped forward and picked up the young eunuch.
The little eunuch cried so hard that his snot came out.âFuren, the emperor is dead!â
âThe emperor did not call any of the concubines last night. He drank the mind-calming soup and went to sleep. This morning, he was supposed to not go to court, so Eunuch Duo Fu did not wake him up. He did not see the emperor up until the next morning, so Eunuch Duo Fu mustered up his courage and went to the dragon bed. In the end⦠He realized that the emperor was bleeding from his seven orifices and had long stopped breathingâ¦Wuwuwuâ¦â She cried miserably.
âEunuch Duo Fu didnât dare to delay any longer, so he told this lowly one to quickly report to General Wei. In addition, the Emperor and Empress had originally invited the Imperial Family to a banquet today. The Empress had already sent people over to urge them twice. Eunuch Duo Fu did not know what to do and was at a loss. He hoped that General Wei could enter the palace to uphold justice!â
Xie Xianâs face was pale, and his eyebrows were tightly knitted. Xiao Baoxin rarely saw such a shape.
âHusbandâ¦â
âIâm going to the palace. Wait for my news.â
Xiao Baoxin did not dare to delay any further and only told him to bring Jin Jin along.
The two of them knew that this trip was dangerous. It was probably another former emperor who had died suddenly.
If someone suddenly attacked, they should at least have a backup plan.
Xie Xian didnât have time to change into his court clothes, so he only called Liu Yun to take out the court residence. He could only squeeze time to change in the car on the road. In addition, he transferred Mu Jin from Xiao Baoxinâs side and changed into menâs clothes to enter the palace with him.
âIn addition, send my letter to Protector Chu. Burn it after reading it.â
As they neared the palace gates, Xie Xian quickly handed the letter he had written out of the window to Fei Shuang.âSpeed! You must hand it over to him personally.â
