After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 138: Princess Wushuang, All-or-Nothing
After Lin Xun said this, even the distracted Emperor Yonghui looked at the Queen.
The queen never thought that she would shoot herself in the foot today. She gnashed her teeth in hatred, but she had to smile and said, "I discovered it by accident today."
"So that's it."
Lin Xun smiled faintly and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you send more people to Wenyuan Pavilion to take a look? Maybe you can find some unexpected treasures."
But Emperor Yonghui did not want to talk much about Concubine Xie, the woman who made him love and hate.
"That's all. Today's matter ends here. Queen, please don't make trouble in the palace in the future."
The queen's face turned pale.
The four words "making trouble out of nothing" spoken by Emperor Yonghui directly shattered the false illusion of harmony between the emperor and the empress that she had just carefully maintained, making her very embarrassed!
The uglier the queen's face looked, the more happy the King of Yue beside her was. He smiled and said, "Father, I heard that the Liyuan has recently composed a new piece of music. Why not let them come forward and perform it?"
Emperor Yonghui was in a bad mood, but he glanced at Lin Xun...
It seemed that Lin Xun was not as impatient as before. He showed up at the palace banquet and then disappeared. Emperor Yonghui was surprised.
Could it be that he really fell in love with a girl at the table today?
It's just that Emperor Yonghui didn't think of Xiao Xuetang for a moment. After all, her engagement with Lin Shaoshu was made when Emperor Huaimin was still alive. Lin Xun has always been steady and would never do such a ridiculous thing.
Thinking about the purpose of choosing a princess for Lin Xun today, Emperor Yonghui sat down again.
Following Emperor Yonghui's order, the singing and dancing continued, as if the incident with the secret box was just a small episode. Xiao Xuetang also quietly returned to his seat.
Xiao Xuetang didn't know that a pair of cold eyes were staring at her in the corridor...
"Hiss" Xiao Xuetang touched his neck and felt a chill on his back!
At this moment, she was holding the Buddhist beads that she had just picked from Lin Xun...
The Buddhist beads seemed to still carry Lin Xun's body temperature and were very hot. Xiao Xuetang wanted to hand them to Qi Yue who was standing beside her, but received an ambiguous glance from Lin Xun who was sitting on the main seat.
Xiao Xuetang instantly understood what Lin Xun meant...
This is a personal item of His Royal Highness the Regent. If she dares to give it to someone else, she will lose her head!
She put the Buddhist beads back into her sleeve.
"What's wrong with you? Do you have lice?"
At this time, Xiao Yunni looked at Xiao Xuetang and said with lingering fear: "I was really scared just now. Why did the Queen suddenly make a box with a mechanism? Fortunately, you have the Regent to help you. Otherwise, if you don't handle it well today, you will really be charged with deceiving the emperor."
At this point, Xiao Yunni stroked her chin, looked at the Buddhist beads Xiao Xuetang was holding thoughtfully, and suddenly said: "I think the Regent must like you!"
"Poof!" Xiao Xuetang almost spit out the tea in his mouth, looked at Xiao Yunni in disbelief, gritted his teeth and said, "You can't say that, if someone hears you, you'll be dead!"
Xiao Xuetang had been getting along with Lin Xun for these days and felt that he was not as cold and heartless as the rumors said, but...
In his past and present lives, Lin Xun was notoriously disgusted with those women who tried to get close to him and seduce him. Xiao Xuetang wanted to cling to Lin Xun's thighs, but she didn't dare to touch his reverse scale.
Seeing Xiao Xuetang's cautious look, Xiao Yunni snorted with an ambiguous tone and said, "Then tell me why the usually cold and ruthless Regent King helped you, and twice~"
Others thought that the Regent smashed the wine cup because he was dissatisfied with the Queen's interference in government affairs, but Xiao Yunni felt that he was clearly trying to help Xiao Xuetang out of trouble.
Sure enough, she was right, they must have done something fishy in their previous life!
"That's because I'm helping the old princess treat her illness..."
And Lin Xun now has to rely on her to detoxify!
But for some reason, Xiao Xuetang seemed a little lacking in confidence when he said this.
Xiao Yunni, however, had a look of disbelief on her face, and snorted, "Just keep talking tough..."
The two were talking in whispers, when suddenly a person walked up to them and looked at them with a smile.
Xiao Xuetang returned to his seat, and when Xiao Yunni was about to come over to talk, she was pushed away.
"The peach blossoms in June are still blooming so beautifully, it's worthy of being Kyoto..."
Xiao Xuetang came back to his senses and met a pair of glassy eyes that were filled with a hint of inquiry.
It was the Princess of Mu Palace who had just raised objections to the name of Wenyuan Pavilion at the gate of Wenyuan Pavilion!
What Xiao Xuetang didn't expect was that this princess, who always acted on her own accord, actually directly took Xiao Yunni's seat and sat next to Xiao Xuetang.
Suddenly, her eyes fell on Xiao Xuetang's eyebrows and she uttered a soft "eh"...
He seemed surprised, puzzled, and yet... suddenly realized!
"The princess?"
Hearing Xiao Xuetang's voice, Mu Yan seemed to wake up from a dream and asked abruptly, "Miss Xiao, have you ever been to Southern Xinjiang?"
Southern Xinjiang?!
Xiao Xuetang looked confused and was about to answer when Ye Jin suddenly came over with a pot of wine.
Ye Jin was full of confidence in the poetry competition just now, but he never expected that Xiao Xuetang would win the first place!
She was unwilling to accept the result, but Wang Yueying was even more unwilling than her.
Wang Yueying has admired Lin Xun for a long time. Now seeing that Lin Xun's personal belongings were given to Xiao Xuetang, if she hadn't taken her status into consideration, she would have wanted to snatch them away.
Seeing Wang Yueying's angry and unwilling expression, Ye Jin took the opportunity to offer a plan...
"If Miss Wang is willing to cooperate with me, we can not only take back the things that originally belonged to Miss Wang in the palace today, but also bring disgrace to Xiao Xuetang!"
Ye Jin lost the poetry competition. Her plan to gain a foothold in Kyoto with her talent and fame is no longer feasible. Now she must make a desperate bet...
"Sister, I toast you today..."
Originally, everyone at the palace banquet was talking to themselves, but Ye Jin's action of standing up instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Didn't they say before that Xiao Xuetang and this adopted daughter have a bad relationship?"
"Didn't they enter the palace together just now? This shows that this rumor is not credible."
Amid the discussion, Ye Jin held up the wine glass and said with a sweet smile: "Sister, this wine is to thank you for taking care of me these days. Tomorrow, I will move out of the Marquis' Mansion, so this wine can be regarded as a farewell party for me."
When Ye Jin finished speaking, the people below were very surprised.
Although Ye Jin had made a lot of jokes in Kyoto these days, she acted very high-profile when she first came to Kyoto, so her words attracted a lot of attention...
"Miss Jin is living well in the Marquis' Mansion, why would she suddenly want to leave?"
"I heard that Miss Jin moved into the mansion with a cart of gold. Her food, clothing and other expenses are all her own. It doesn't matter whether she lives in the mansion or not."
"You can't say that. After all, Ye Jin is the adopted daughter of the Yong'an Marquis and his wife, and they have a special bond. That day in Jingzhou, Ye Jin used the ancestral prescription to save the wife of the Yong'an Marquis. Is this how the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion repays her for saving her life?"
For a time, Xiao Xuetang became the target of attack by the Marquis' Mansion!
