Chapter 394 - 394: 394-Be More Heartful
“I didn’t ask him to barge in. It was Er Niu who heard the wrong sound, so he barged into the city.”
Princess Anji didn’t dare to be stubborn and pushed the blame to Erniu. She was as pure as a white lotus. “He’s a fool. He only has strength. Who knew that he could cause such a big trouble…”
The Eldest Princess did not even look at her.
” Anji’s mistake is naturally punished by Zongzheng Temple. This old woman doesn’t want to interfere-”
“Aunt!” Angie screamed. Her sallow face was so thin that she looked like a human, and her eyes were especially big. “I know what I did wrong in the past. I won’t do it again. Auntie, save me!”
Originally, she still had a glimmer of hope. However, due to their relationship, the Emperor did not dare to really attack her.
It was all an old matter. It was fine if she apologized, but with the Eldest Princess by the side to smooth things over, it was just a matter of time before she returned to Jiankang.
Who knew that Er Niu would mess it up when he came back. With such a big piece of evidence in the hands of the Emperor, it would be strange if he didn’t add insult to injury. When she heard Prince Jiang Xia’s words and the look of disdain in his eyes, she knew that this matter was not going to end well.
That was why she came to the Eldest Princess. In the past, it was the Eldest Princess who protected her.
Princess Anji knelt on the ground and cried bitterly. Did they think that she had never thought of defecting to King Jin ‘an? From King Jin ‘an, she knew that she would be set up as a model of being persecuted by the new emperor and receive good treatment.
However, the problem was that she had to be able to reach Jiang Prefecture safely if she wanted to go. Now that it was such a mess, who knew what would happen on the way?
However, she could not delay her illness any longer. Otherwise, she would not have returned so suddenly.
“If Auntie doesn’t save me, I’ll die!”
She cried so hard that she didn’t care about her image.
The Eldest Princess only felt desolation when she saw this. She pointed to Prince Jiang Xia and said,””This is our child. She has the blood of our Song family flowing in her veins. How can you call her glorious?”
“The Xiao family and the Xie family have contributed from the dragon, but the credit lies with the new emperor. I don’t know the inside story, I don’t know which one of them is true, but since things have come to this, I can’t watch my Song family’s descendants be forced into a corner by the Xiao and Xie families!”
They could punish him, but they couldn’t kick him when he was down.
What was the problem?
Would Would it count?
It was true that King Jiang Xia respected the Eldest Princess of Kuaiji, but his reputation, honor, and even his life were in the hands of the new Emperor. If he wanted to side with Emperor Yong Ping, he would.
What descendants of the Song family? He was too embarrassed to tell the Eldest Princess what illness Anji had and what the outside world was saying about her.
For the royal family’s face, you should at least cover it up, right?
He had thrown his face on the ground and stepped on it. What face did he still want?
It was a tug-of-war. The Eldest Princess could also see that Prince Jiang Xia was not someone who could make decisions. She got up and was about to go to the palace to find Emperor Yong Ping to personally speak to him, but she was persuaded back by Minister Xu who had rushed over.
Minister Xu had always been on the same side as the Xiao family and Emperor Yong Ping. Naturally, he could not let the Eldest Princess and the Emperor fall out over this matter.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t break it, but it depended on the reason.
Because Princess Angie was not worth it!
Then, things came to a standstill.
The Eldest Princess was stopped, but she insisted on not letting him go. King Jiang Xia could not snatch him away.
“I’m not an unreasonable old woman. Angie hurt someone, so it’s definitely her fault. I’ll pay for the treatment, and I’ll bear the responsibility. I only have one rule. Anji is sick, and this illness has to be treated. Also, even if I punish her, she has to find a place in Jiankang. Even if she’s surrounded, she can’t be driven out of the city.”
The Eldest Princess did not care about her son’s twists and turns. It was impossible for him to tear down her son’s stage.
However, Princess Anji was also a member of the Song family, so she could not ignore her.’Tm already in my seventies this year. I don’t have many years left to live. I can’t watch you force Angie to her death. If it was peaceful, I wouldn’t interfere in this matter. To be honest, I don’t like how she handles things. However, it was one thing to dislike her, and another to help her do evil. Now that the world was so chaotic, once you threw her out, it was no different from killing her.”
“I’ll say it here. This is the bottom line.”

After the court session, the whole matter exploded and quickly fermented.
Not long after, everyone knew that the Eldest Princess was involved in this matter. Jiankang City, which had been quiet for a long time and had been shrouded in the dark clouds of war, was instantly diluted by gossip.
Other people were just watching the show, but the Xiao family was different. This matter involved Xiao Baoxin and he was pregnant. Madam Xie rushed to the Xie family as soon as she heard the news.
Looking at Xiao Baoxin, whose teeth were white and lips were red, and whose face was full of joy, Madam Xie’s heart finally calmed down.
“He’s too arrogant. He’s actually running amok on the streets. Even a princess can’t be so lawless.”Madam Xie let go of the anger in her heart, but it suddenly came up. This was because her daughter’s maid was good at fighting and had quick reflexes. If she really bumped into her, who could afford to pay for it?
Killing Princess Anji would be enough to appease his hatred!
“If it wasn’t for your uncle sending a letter home, I would still be in the dark. Why are you so unreliable? Don’t you know how to send a message home?” After Madam Xie finished scolding Princess Anji, she started blaming Xiao Baoxin.
“You don’t know what kind of person you are. How can you spread such a small matter to everyone?”
She did not even have the face to say it. The news that Xie Xian had asked the imperial physician about it could spread all over. She was so embarrassed that her old face was about to die. Although she was secretly glad for her daughter, she was still thinking about this at this time. Her son-in-law’s body…Not bad!
“I didn’t expect it to be so big.”Xiao Baoxin apologized earnestly, pretending not to ‘hear’ Madam Xie’s gratified voice.
Xiao Baoxin:
As expected, she was fooled by Xie’s male scheme and was greatly embarrassed. Since her mother knew, the circle probably knew everything they needed to know.
“In the future, if there’s any movement, you must immediately send someone to inform me so that I won’t worry. You said that your father and brother are both outside, and you’re the only one in the city.”
“You, I can rest assured. You’re the only one who can bully others. However, things are different now. You are pregnant now. What if you hurt my grandson again?”
Xiao Baoxin thought,[She’s overthinking things. Ah Niang’s anxious face turned red because of the little grandson in her stomach.]
“Mother-”
Madam Xie did not allow her to argue. She rolled her eyes at her.” Don’t act coquettishly with me. Be more careful in the future..””
