Chapter 390 - 390-False Alarms
Duo Fu knew that he had to be rewarded, but he never dreamed that he would get a manor on this trip.
Oh my god, I’ve never seen such a generous reward in my life. Looking at King Jiang Xia again, his entire body was shining with golden light. The 50-year-old looked like a benevolent and kind person, just like the God of Fortune in the paintings.
There was no need for King Jiang Xia to ask who had sent the words into the palace, how long Emperor Yong Ping had sat in the room, and what tone he had used to say them. He had left out all the details.
“Does Zong Zheng still have any questions?” Duo Fu smiled, his teeth showing off.
King Jiang Xia was holding two walnuts in his hands and smiling. The young eunuch had just been by the Emperor’s side. He had been around for a long time and had received a lot of things. He had seen a lot of the world and was not so easy to fool.
“Thank you for your guidance, Eunuch Fu.”
He didn’t ask anything else.
There was no need to ask.
Saying these words to Duo Fu was just to pave the way for future dealings.
Princess Anji could turn the tables on whoever became the emperor. Only Emperor Yong Ping, the former King of Xin ‘an, would not let Princess An Ji have a good time. What was there to ask?
Who in Jiankang City who had a bit of face didn’t know why Princess Anji was chased out of Jiankang by Emperor Yuheng?
Noble Consort Liu’s mother and her two sons had already formed a death feud with Princess Anji. Now that King Xin ‘an had become the emperor, what good would Princess Anji have?
Moreover, Xie Xian, who feared his wife like a tiger, was still in court. If he did not do anything, he reckoned that he would not be able to get past his fierce tiger wife.
“If you only reply to the emperor, this official knows what to do.”

Xie Xian didn’t even use the next day. He found out at night and was so angry that his face turned green.
The main reason was that Youmei had caused too much trouble. Before Xiao Baoxin got out of the car, she had already made a fuss and caused a ruckus that the entire residence knew about.
Xie Xian had returned to the manor early that day and was resting. When he heard the words sent back by Ming Yue, he was so frightened that his soul almost flew out. He even ran around in circles. At that time, he was also close to the manor door. He saw Xiao Baoxin early, or else his own heartbeat would have shocked him.
His heart almost jumped out of his chest.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
If it wasn’t for his heavy body, Xiao Baoxin would have directly jumped to Xie Xian’s side. This person’s face was too scary. It was as white as a piece of paper, and his eyes were almost straight.
“Don’t listen to Youmei’s nonsense. It’s fine.”Xiao Baoxin stepped forward and held Xie Xian’s hand.
His heartbeat was so loud that she could hear it from the side.
“Are you really fine?” Xie Xian calmed his mind.
Youmei felt wronged.” Madam almost got hit by the carriage just now. She complained that her stomach hurts…”
“Carriage?” Xie Xian frowned. Seeing that Xiao Baoxin was safe and sound, his intelligence instantly returned to normal. There was no one in Jiankang City who rode in a carriage. The aristocratic families and nobles had always respected riding in ox carts. Horses were things that were priceless on the battlefield.
There were only two or three horses in the palace, and they were raised to be extremely expensive.
“Do you know who it is?”
“Princess Angie.” A plum tree rushed to answer. “She called herself.”
Xie Xian and Xiao Baoxin looked at each other, and Xiao Baoxin nodded lightly. The two of them did not say anything else. After returning to Rong An Hall, before they could sit down, Madam Yuan rushed over.
Seeing that Xiao Baoxin was fine, he felt relieved. She was in such a hurry that her face turned red.
Before he could finish explaining, Mother Xie sent Zhilan over to ask, followed by Madam Wang. Even the pregnant Mrs. Cai and Wang Shiwu’s mother rushed over, and a few young ladies followed behind them like they were skewers of candied haws.
“..”Xiao Baoxin didn’t expect it to be so big, and he was a little shocked.
There was a little warmth in her heart. No matter how tight the family was, there were still feelings. At this time, let her think on the bright side!
In less than a cup of tea’s time, Mother Xie came over herself, afraid that she would hurt her great-grandson.
“Princess Angie?” Mother Xie touched her face. This matter had blown up.
Xiao Baoxin blushed.” I was also thinking about the unpleasant past and didn’t want to go down and kowtow to her, so I complained that my stomach hurt and asked the coachman to drive the carriage back.””
“It was these servants making a fuss over nothing and not understanding Furen’s intentions.”Hibiscus hurriedly came out to explain, afraid that Youmei’s wife would take the blame and turn the entire mansion upside down. She had to say what she had to say.
“You did the right thing. You’re pregnant, so it’s fine even if it’s a small matter.”Mrs. Yuan stood up for her daughter-in-law.” Didn’t you say that you almost bumped into her? Wouldn’t you be shocked?”
“Coincidentally, the doctor is here. Let her feel your pulse.”
After Xie Xian ran out without even putting on his shoes, Ming Yue had already called her over and waited outside.
As soon as Madam Yuan said this, the whole family agreed.
It was not until the doctor confirmed that she was fine that Madam Wang slowly said,
“There are some things about the royal family that shouldn’t be spread randomly, but Princess Anji… “I heard that it’s not very peaceful outside the city. How can that be considered cultivating? In the past, there was a madam who went there to offer incense. After hearing that Princess Anji went there, it was simply a mess…” Princess Anji has a lot of hunters from the nearby villages…”
“A good nunnery has been ruined by her. It’s like a silver nest.”
Madam Wang had more ears and eyes than Madam Yuan, so she heard more of all kinds of things. After all, socializing had its benefits. She was well-informed. In the past, it was just a pastime after a meal, but now it had provoked their own family.
Mrs. Cai wanted to cover her stomach tightly, afraid that the baby in her stomach would hear it. It was too dirty.
“Aiyo, why is it like this…”
“How can she have the face to come back?”
Mother Xie:” It’s so chaotic now. It’s hard outside.”So he thought of taking advantage of the chaos to return to Jiankang.
Everyone chatted for a while. Seeing that Xiao Baoxin was fine, they did not stay any longer and left one after another.
Only then did Xie Xian tell Xiao Baoxin,” I heard that Princess Anji was making a fuss a while ago. She wrote to the Eldest Princess of Kuaiji and also to the King of Jiangxia. She said that the world was difficult and she was seriously ill. She wanted to return to Jiankang to treat her illness.”
The letter was filled with the words ” poor” and ” suffering”. After all, she was the princess of the Song family and had the blood of the old Song family flowing in her veins. She wanted to return to Jiankang no matter what.
However, the Xu family did not pass the letter to the Eldest Princess at all. Even the Jiangxia Prince’s mansion did not take it seriously when they received the letter.
At this time, no one wanted to offend the new emperor and cause him trouble.
However, he never dreamed that Princess Anji would find a reckless man and force her way back to Jiankang City.
Xie Xian was narrow-minded to begin with. He had always been thinking about how Princess Anji had used underhanded methods to frame Xiao Baoxin. Back then, Emperor Yu Heng had stopped him from doing so. At that time, he and Xiao Baoxin had no name, so it was not good for him to stand up and fight.
He actually left her to run into his wife when she returned to Jiankang.
She was her nemesis in her previous life and her enemy in this life. Nothing good would come out of meeting her.
Fortunately, Youmei was alert and had great strength. She kicked the horse to death. Otherwise, it would not be a false alarm today.. It was a real shock!
