Chapter 573 - 573: 573-Can’t Be Unconvinced
“I am afraid. Your Majesty is right to teach me a lesson. It’s just that the entire family is controlled by my mother, and I can’t say much. Father already knew his mistake and had taught his mother many times. Mother also knows that she was wrong and wants to make up for it by apologizing to the Xie family and the Xiao family…”
“Your Majesty, please forgive this lowly official for speaking too much. My mother is overbearing and domineering, but her heart is not vicious. Otherwise, she would not have allowed us, the sons of concubines, to grow up. The eldest daughter of the Xie family had no grudges with her mother…His mother was probably just angry…Yiyiyi, accident…”
Cai Qilang spoke in a hurry, and because of his eagerness, he stuttered a little, making him seem overly sincere.
Emperor Yong Ping sighed.
“Mother must have regretted it, so she wanted to find someone to make peace and apologize in private. Unexpectedly…After being rejected, she flew into a rage out of humiliation, and that was how things turned out.”
Cai Qilang didn’t want to say anything on behalf of his stepmother.
However, there was one sentence that came from the bottom of his heart.
Cai Yuanshi was indeed overbearing and tyrannical, but it was true that she did not lay a hand on these illegitimate children.
Of course, you can say that you don’t care about dirtying their hands, and you really don’t think they can threaten the legitimate children.
However, there was no lack of mothers in the aristocratic families who were overwhelmed by jealousy and competition, and then did evil things.
At least for this, he was grateful.
Other than constantly telling them to be Di brother’s right-hand men and to put Di brother first in everything, there was nothing else. In terms of life, they naturally could not be compared to their eldest brother, but they were not treated harshly. They were above the average of the sons of concubines in Jiankang City.
That was why he said that.
He knew that if he lost, he would lose, and if he lost, he would rise.
When he knocked his head on the ground, he knew that he would never be able to laugh and shout with Emperor Yong Ping again.
The person in front of him was no longer the son of a favored concubine, but the high and mighty emperor who could decide all life and death.
“Please forgive me, Your Majesty.”
“Alright, get up. It wasn’t for you.”Emperor Yong Ping frowned in frustration.” It’s mainly because your stepmother is too unreasonable. Can’t she just give in to her?””
“Yun Xiu, go back and tell your father not to make me unhappy during the new year.”
“As for you, our relationship is different from others. You only need to know this. I will not mistreat you.”
The ‘you guys’ naturally referred to the nickname that Emperor Yong Ping and the others jokingly came up with: Four Xian, other than the Emperor’s other three people.
However, Cai Qi didn’t know that when Cai Qilang brought the Emperor’s original words, he naturally thought that the word ‘you’ referred to the Cai family. Other than praising Cai Qilang, he also quickly and accurately stopped Cai Yuanshi from acting.
Cai Yuanshi was not ignorant of the ways of the world, but she was really angered by Lady Yuan, which made her sick for a moment.
When he turned around and heard the Emperor’s words, his heart immediately cleared up. He knew that his actions had already incurred the Emperor’s annoyance.
Cai Dalang was still an assistant minister in the Ministry of Personnel. She did not want to give up her son’s job.
Her Lao Cai had already been removed from his post, and there was only Dalang left. She still had to guard against Xie Xian’s secret attacks, so she couldn’t be a useless teammate. The anger in his heart grew, and his illness dragged on day by day.
“Don’t worry, it’s going to be the new year soon. This is the first year of the new emperor’s ascension, and there are many things waiting to be done. The emperor is waiting for people to sing praises of him, so it’s normal that he doesn’t want to hear the secrets of the aristocratic families.”
“We must take revenge for the Xie family, but we can’t rush it.”
“Otherwise, losing the Saint’s Heart is secondary. If we add fuel to Xie Xian’s fire and strike first to gain the upper hand, then the one who miscalculated would be us.”
Cai Qi was stunned.”At least after this period of time, everyone has a peaceful new year…” Xie Xian is not an ordinary person. If he attacks, he must hit it in one strike. Otherwise, I’m afraid we won’t even have the chance to breathe.”
Auntie Yuan’s defeated face lit up with fighting spirit.” I’ll make him wish he was dead!”
Cai Qi: I don’t think it’s possible to defeat Kai, the enemy?
F * ck your mother, who are you?

When the Cai family found Cai Mingzhu, Madam Xie still sent word to Xiao Baoxin.
Madam Xie’s words were always a little exaggerated, but it sounded a little interesting. Xie Xian had been on guard day and night to make her think less, but when he met Madam Xie, his efforts would always be broken.
Madam Xie was not only talkative and had no taboos, but her mind was also very active. Not going out for a month could not hinder her understanding of the entire Jiankang. A person who collected the complete collection of the Eight Trigrams.
“.. The Cai family was still dancing, how could they still have the face to dance? He had almost become the laughing stock of Jiankang City. This evil thing, pretending to be sick to gain sympathy, was simply too despicable!”Madam Xie mocked and mocked, completely ignoring Cai Mingzhu, who was laughing along at the side.
Mrs. Cai, on the other hand, was relaxed as if she was not talking about her family.
It had been a long time since Xiao Baoxin had seen such fiery sarcasm.
It had been so long that his mother seemed to have forgotten that she was still a so-called ‘laughingstock’ even now.
“It’s all thanks to son-in-law. There aren’t many people who treat their wives as well as he does. You have to cherish them. Don’t lose your temper.”
Which family’s husband would sit with their wife during the confinement period?
Even if he had the heart, he didn’t have the face to do so. However, Xie Xian did.
He couldn’t refuse.
Madam Xie was now completely convinced of Xie Xian.
After a while, Madam Xie was asked to leave by Madam Yuan.
When Xie Yan was one month old, the Xie family held a grand banquet with guests. The number of guests who came was no less than that of Lady Yuan’s birthday. Even if there were disagreements in the court, the aristocratic families still interacted with each other in private. The eldest branch didn’t leave, and the second branch left. In any case, most of the aristocratic families were prosperous, and relatives were connected. It was rare for the Xie and Cai families to have such a bad relationship.
Everyone saw through it but did not say anything because of Xiao Baoxin, this scourge.
Those who heard Madam Xie’s soft voice about the Cai family thought, Is she sure that the Cai family is the only laughing stock? Don’t be so self-deprecating, dear. Your Xiao family isn’t lacking in anything.
It was just that Sikong Xiao was like the sun in the sky, and the Xie family was the head of the aristocratic families. Under this double umbrella of protection, no one dared to find trouble with Xiao Baoxin.
Look, she was dressed up beautifully after giving birth. Her figure was even, and her skin was fair. How could she look like a pregnant woman?
Only Xiao Baoxin himself knew how many layers of silk wrapped around his stomach had produced such an effect. His face and limbs had returned to normal, and some parts had even developed very well.
It was just that her stomach and waist had not recovered to the standard of a prenatal doctor.
To be precise, it was the standard before pregnancy.
It wasn’t easy for her to get such an amazing effect today. She ate two or three kittens every day, but for the sake of her health, she had to eat them. She was concerned about the beauty and practicality.
Ahem, to be precise, it was health and beauty. She had put in a lot more effort and perseverance than others. She applied all kinds of fats and creams on her body every day to slim down. She had her mother massage her limbs and lower abdomen every day. She had gritted her teeth and perspired through it.
She had a son. She just used the limited time others had to take care of her son to improve her beauty..
