Chapter 386 - 386: That Heartache
Xie Xian saw that Xiao Baoxin was about to go crazy, so he realized the seriousness of the matter. Or rather, he had the extra thoughts to realize the seriousness of the matter. Previously, he had been busy dealing with government affairs and military affairs, as well as thinking about those unspeakable things with Xiao Baoxin.
He didn’t have any extra energy to think about it.
On the other hand, the old imperial physician who was questioned by him had a rough idea in his heart. This was because the four sides were optimistic about the war. Otherwise, he would not have the mood to think about these things at this time.
He told Madam when he got home. Don’t worry, the war will be over in minutes. Don’t talk to those people outside and make it sound like the war will be over in minutes.
If they really fought to Jiankang, Pushe would definitely not have the leisure to ask him about his life during pregnancy and how much he had learned.
Moreover, Pushe was not one to be blinded by lust-if Xie Xian knew that the Imperial Physician was thinking this way, he would definitely refute him. He was a lustful person. He was so lustful that he almost smelled like sauce. It was very rich.
This matter was quietly spread by word of mouth from the woman in the back house. No one really put it on the table.
However, there was one advantage. If there were any more rumors about Xie Xian and the Emperor, there would be people who would refute them. Xie Pushe’s wife was still thinking about that matter during her pregnancy. The two of them were still warm, so it was impossible for her to be involved with the Emperor.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything.” Xie Xian had a headache. The most important thing now was to appease his wife.
What could he do now? He could no longer take care of everything. He decided to put on the ultimate plan, the handsome man trap!
He was already hugging Xiao Baoxin and was furious. Xiao Baoxin was so angry and embarrassed that he forgot to push him away and let him hug him. He took advantage of the fact that he was in her ear and whispered,”
“I was wrong, I was really wrong. I was blinded by lust and blackened my heart…” You’ve been watching me for so long, I love you so much, but I can’t touch you. I miss you so much that my heart hurts. Not only does my heart ache, but my flesh and eyes also hurt…”
“Just take pity on me. I’m too uncomfortable.”
“But I don’t dare to act on my own and hurt you and the child again…”
“Wifey, Qingqing, lovely flesh…”
However, Xiao Baoxin was so happy that he was on cloud nine. It was also because his mouth was not idle. As he spoke, he bit her neck. Pan Shuo had not given her the painting for nothing. He had already memorized it by heart.
In just a few moments, Xiao Baoxin’s body softened like a puddle of water.
He was shouting in his heart that it was embarrassing, but his body was too honest. He quickly surrendered.
The two of them blew out the lamp and went to bed. In the blink of an eye, it was the next morning.
Before Xie Xian went to court, he even exhorted Xiao Baoxin,\'”‘You’re tired from last night. Don’t go to mother-in-law’s place today. Have a good rest. It’s not too late to go tomorrow.”
After all, it was a period of national mourning. It would not be so fast to settle the marriage. He was not afraid that others would beat him to it.
Moreover, he didn’t believe that Sikong hadn’t told Madam Xie that Xiao Baoshu’s marriage would be discussed again and that Princess Xuancheng would be caught sooner or later. It was just that the Emperor had mentioned it, and he and the Yue Clan were just confirming it.
Xiao Baoxin pretended not to hear it.
After all, he had practiced martial arts for more than ten years. Did he really think that she was a porcelain that would shatter just by knocking and touching?
She was only motivated by the tense atmosphere in the Xie family. In addition, there were too many things that her first child did not know. Her health was really good. Even Doctor Xue said that her physical fitness was good, so it must not be bad.
She packed up and went to visit Mother Xie. After having breakfast with Mother Xie and the whole family, she hurried back to Xiao Mansion.
These days, Madam Xie was in high spirits. If it wasn’t for the fact that entertainment was strictly prohibited during the national funeral, she would have played gongs and drums to entertain guests from all over the country and tell them about her family’s Baoshu.
However, the current situation did not allow it, so she held it in and felt uncomfortable.
Xiao Baoxin had arrived, but someone had already started talking. They had been talking for more than an hour. During this period, he didn’t leave any tea, snacks, or fruits behind. He recalled the past and the extraordinary years. His saliva flew everywhere as he praised his son.
When he was a child, he was still in chaos and hated by people and ghosts. Who would have thought that Baoshu would have such a day? You’ve really grown up.”
Although Xiao Baoxin was honored, he was still speechless after hearing this.
All the complaints and curses that she had made in the past had turned into evidence that her son was different from others since he was young.
” Speaking of which, Baoshu is already so big.” Xiao Baoxin quickly dismissed Madam Xie’s words. He couldn’t let this continue. An entire afternoon wouldn’t be enough for her to listen to.
“Yesterday, the emperor also mentioned the marriage with the princess of Xuancheng to Xuanhui.”
Madam Xie’s eyes lit up when she heard that. This was something the new emperor wanted!
Ever since the incident with Xu Liu Niangzi, Madam Xie and Sikong Xiao had privately said that no matter what, Princess Xuancheng was still a dignified princess. No matter what, she wouldn’t be someone else’s second wife.
Even if it was given to someone, it had to be done by an outstanding person.
At least at that time, the two of them did not see any outstanding aspects of Xiao Baoshu. It was not considered that he was different from the others, but it should not be considered that he had many masters…
At that time, she was still worried about Xiao Baoshu’s marriage. Which noble daughter was willing to be someone else’s second wife?
If they looked for people who were not as good as them, they would not approve of them in their hearts. In the end, people were selfish. They still wanted to go higher.
Madam Xie was so happy that her snot was bubbling. Her son had become a hot commodity.
“I understand.” She smiled and agreed.” So it’s settled?”
Xiao Baoxin nodded.” Of course. However, there was no national mourning yet, so the Emperor could not directly issue an edict. It would be almost done after the national mourning. No matter how late it was, it would not be past the end of the year.”
Madam Xie was smiling so widely that her teeth could not be seen. Her mouth was so wide that her tongue could be seen. If she continued to speak, the sky would turn dark.
Xiao Baoxin quickly asked Cai Shi.
” I brought some tonics over. Grand Madam also asked me to bring two ginseng and my mother-in-law-”
“Don’t pour things into the house. There’s nothing at home!”Madam Xie frowned.” This is just a superficial matter. It’s true that the Xie family is a big family, but you can’t always be like this. It makes people think that you’re petty. After marrying over, she still kept thinking about her maternal family.”
She was thinking about her daughter and didn’t want the Xie family to look down on her.
“The Emperor knew that your sister-in-law had returned to Jiankang and specially rewarded her with something to let her take good care of herself. Even if the emperor didn’t reward her, are you afraid that I will mistreat her?”
Xiao Baoxin smiled. Ah Niang was a kind person, not a wicked mother-in-law. No matter what, she would not think like this.
“The Emperor’s intentions and the Xie family’s intentions are to walk on good terms with our family. At most, we can return more of our favors in the future. There’s no reason for us not to..”
