After the heroine was robbed, save the paranoid villain

Xiao Chengji looked indifferent.

In fact, he really didn't care. Over the years, everyone knew that he didn't regard Queen Dowager Zheng as his grandmother, and Queen Dowager Zheng didn't regard him as her grandson.

The relationship between the two is more like enemies than grandparents and grandchildren.

Emperor Jianxing looked at Xiao Chengji deeply.

He couldn't be as decisive as Xiao Chengji. There were some emotions that he could never give up in his life.

Xiao Chengji curled his lips and said, "Father, you and I both know that the Ma family has suffered a great injustice in this matter. Ma Gong has fought for the Wei Dynasty for many years. Once there is any war on the front line, he will be called on to fight and die. But his daughter was unfairly killed by someone like him!"

Emperor Jianxing took a deep breath.

Xiao Chengji said: "Of course, whether you punish Old Seven or punish the Zheng family, I have no opinion. After all, what happened has nothing to do with me."

Emperor Jianxing knew it very well.

What the Zheng family did during this period offended the entire military group.

At the same time, Xiao Chengji did nothing, but was the biggest winner.

Before what happened to General Weiyuan's Mansion, there was also a daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo who had her engagement broken off by the Fifth Prince.

The contribution that the Duke of Zhenguo made to the entire Wei Dynasty was much greater than that of General Weiyuan. It was even he who promoted General Weiyuan.

The Fifth Prince slapped the Duke of Zhenguo's only daughter hard in the face, and also slapped all the generals who had fought and died for the Wei Dynasty hard.

Many soldiers died in trenches in the autumn, and the generals did not return from burning wasteland in October. The number of military generals who died in office during the Wei Dynasty was several times more than the number of civil officials who died in office.

A famous general like the Duke of Zhenguo who had made great contributions would be humiliated and despised if his descendants lost their protection after his death, let alone ordinary generals like them?

The Fifth Prince was mean and ungrateful. From the moment he broke off the engagement with the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, most of the military commanders felt disheartened and despised him.

That was why Queen Mother Zheng was so anxious to meet General Weiyuan's daughter, hoping to win the support of the military for the Fifth Prince through this marriage.

It’s a pity that the Fifth Prince cannot establish himself, and the Ma family doesn’t want this marriage at all.

After being rejected, Queen Mother Zheng became furious and wanted to teach the Ma family a lesson, but this lesson was too great!

In a split second, Emperor Jianxing suddenly realized that something was wrong. The first half of this time's behavior was similar to that of Empress Dowager Zheng, but the second half was not.

Queen Mother Zheng would not deliberately throw dirty water on Miss Ma and make this matter a big deal. After all, she still wanted Miss Ma to marry the Seventh Prince as a concubine.

He met Xiao Chengji's eyes, and then Xiao Chengji nodded.

Emperor Jianxing patted Xiao Chengji on the shoulder and said, "Ma Gong is coming back. You should comfort him. I heard that he treats his daughter like a treasure."

Since the investigation on the Empress Dowager's side was not going anywhere, the Emperor ordered an investigation on the Empress' side.

This time it was easy to find out the whole story.

It was indeed the Queen Mother who arranged the order for the Seventh Prince to offend Miss Ma, and she had someone put a sleeping pill in Miss Ma's tea.

But the news spread everywhere, and even the rumor that Miss Ma was no longer innocent was spread by the Queen.

Emperor Jianxing didn't know what the queen was thinking, but it was not the first time that the queen had done such brainless things. She could not be regarded as a normal person.

The situation in the court is now turbulent and the atmosphere in the entire Shoukang Palace is dead.

Xiao Qirui knew that he had done something wrong, and he was nervous and scared.

It was Nanny Zhao, who served the Empress Dowager, who told him to offend Miss Ma.

Nanny Zhao said that he should have a concubine of good status, and the opportunity should not be missed. With the empress dowager backing him up, he should just do it boldly.

That's how men act when they get angry, and since Miss Ma was indeed beautiful, Xiao Qirui did it in a fit of rage.

But he didn't expect that this matter would become so widespread. When the emperor heard that Miss Ma had died, he was furious. Xiao Qirui had to hide in the empress dowager's palace and wait until the emperor calmed down before coming out.

These days the old empress has been eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures, as if all the evil deeds she has done could be offset by eating vegetarian meals for two days and saying "Amitabha" a few times.

The Fifth Prince's residence was as joyous as ever.

Xiao Jiashan felt quite at ease and gossiped about Miss Ma with people around him.

"I didn't expect this woman to be so fickle that she dared to seduce Old Seven in the Empress Dowager's Palace." Xiao Jiashan said with a smile, "It's a pity that she has slept with someone else a long time ago. If she hadn't slept with someone else, Old Seven would be blessed!"

Wei Ruxuan glanced at Xiao Jiashan in a reproachful manner: "Are you still thinking about that Miss Ma?"

"How could I possibly miss her?" Xiao Jiashan was now feeling thankful, "Fortunately, the Empress Dowager didn't really assign her to me. If I had married such a slut as my principal wife, our Xiao family would have lost face for eight lifetimes!"

Xiao Jiashan said this sincerely. He was really lucky! He felt that he had to be cautious in choosing a wife. He couldn't just marry anyone and make them his wife!

Wei Ruxuan couldn't help but pout and act coquettishly: "What about me? Fifth Master, you promised to marry me as your principal wife. When are you going to tell the Queen to make me your principal wife?"

"this--"

Xiao Jiashan glanced at Wei Ruxuan.

Whenever Wei Ruxuan entered the palace to accompany the queen, she would dress simply and elegantly.

But when she was at home, she dressed up gorgeously, wearing bright and colorful dresses, and her body was covered with rouge and powder with a strong fragrance, which reminded Xiao Jiashan of the last scene in the brothel.

It was obvious that Xiao Jiashan felt very excited to have the same treatment as outside at home, and he enjoyed the other party's service very much.

But he knew very well in his heart that his wife should not behave like this. If people knew that his wife behaved like this at home all day, he would be finished!

Xiao Jiashan stammered in response: "I can't make the decision on this matter... I have to let the Queen Mother make the decision!"

Wei Ruxuan's face suddenly twisted: "Empress Dowager! Empress Dowager! Is the Empress Dowager the only one in your eyes? Xiao Jiashan, what about what you promised me?"

"Then I have no choice." Xiao Jiashan was a little annoyed. "Inside and outside the palace, everything is decided by the Queen Mother. Of course I have to listen to her!"

Wei Ruxuan really began to doubt her dream and suspected that the book she read in the dream was fake.

Can such an untrustworthy man really become emperor?

But thinking about the cruel and indifferent King Qin... Wei Ruxuan bit her lip.

Compared to villains like the King of Qin who don't touch women, Xiao Jiashan is at least a good person.

When you think about it this way, there's nothing wrong with being indecisive.

"Then you must promise me that when you become emperor in the future, you must make me your queen."

Xiao Jiashan nodded: "Xuan'er, don't worry, I will definitely do it."
