Chapter 456: Full Firepower

Translator: 549690339

It was worth mentioning how powerful the Shangyi female official in the palace was. No matter what kind of flowers bloomed, she would fix them all up in the palace.

Xiao Ning was originally a dignified and magnanimous woman, but after being taught by the palace, she became the second empress.

However, Xiao Baoxin shouldn’t have questioned this. He held his stomach and sat next to Xiao Ning.

She didn’t like to be modest and half-seated. Not to mention that Xiao Ning wasn’t the empress yet, even if she was, she would still have to be full of herself. Did she want her old son to sit on her half butt?

“Sister-in-law’s stomach seems to have gotten bigger again.”

Xie Wan also had to go to Rong Antang every three to five days, but even so, she still felt that Xiao Baoxin’s stomach was always changing every few days.

Xiao Ning naturally heard that Xie Wan had heard that “Zhen” kicked her in the stomach, so she reached out to touch it. Unexpectedly, just as she touched it, she heard a woman in palace clothes standing behind Xiao Ning cough lightly.

Then, Xiao Ning moved her hand away.

Xiao Baoxin looked at the woman again. She was in her twenties and was not very eye-catching. She could be considered beautiful, but her eyes were as clear as water. He was expressionless, but judging from Xiao Ning’s every command and action, he wasn’t a good person.

This was Guo Shangyi, who had been appointed by the Empress Dowager to the Xie family. Xiao Ning had to serve by her side since she entered the harem.

Looking at this stance, it seemed like this Shang Yi had caught him.

Guo Shangyi seemed to have noticed Xiao Baoxin’s glance at her. She smiled faintly at her and nodded lightly as a greeting.

Xiao Baoxin nodded in response and did not say much.

There were some things that she couldn’t stand, but she wasn’t stupid enough to stand up for them. Even if she had any objections, she would talk to Xiao Ning in private. However, ever since Guo Shangyi was sent to the Xie Mansion to teach Xiao Ning the etiquette of the palace, Xiao Ning rarely appeared in front of others. She had already held her head high.

With Guo Shangyi watching, Xiao Ning’s words and actions were more conventional, and her attitude was friendly with a sense of distance.

In the Xie family, Xiao Ning’s status was already somewhat awkward. When she acted like this, the other ladies didn’t know what to do. His attitude was too close and he seemed to have lost his composure, but there was nothing to talk about if he was further away.

They weren’t very familiar with each other, and Xiao Ning would become the mother of a country in less than a month.

“It has been a few days since I last saw Cousin Ning. It seems…Have you lost weight?” Xie Wan smiled.”You seem to have grown taller too.”

Xiao Ning grinned and was eager to compete with Xie Wan.”I also feel that it has grown. My clothes are a little too small…” Suddenly, he came back to his senses and looked at Guo Shangyi.” The Ministry of Rites measured my height a few months ago. Now, I’ve grown again-”

“Don’t worry, Your Highness. The gown will only be made bigger, not smaller. However, he had to size his undergarments.”It was inevitable that there would be another round of torment.

“It’s just that there are many rules in the palace. The most important thing is to smile without showing your teeth, stand like a pine tree, and sit like like a bell.”It was better to teach than to persuade, no matter how gentle his tone was. “Grand Empress Dowager likes to be demure and calm.”

Xiao Ning’s smile disappeared.

Xie Wan also looked at Guo Shangyi at this time and was a little dissatisfied.”What does Shangyi mean? Be it the daughters of the Xie family or the daughters of the Xiao family, they don’t follow the rules, right?”

What kind of thing was this? How could he order them around?

Xiao Baoxin was shocked. He didn’t know when his aunt had become so hot-tempered.

She had to start reflecting on herself. Was it because she had become calm and peaceful after getting pregnant? She was still sitting there, but her aunt was already charging forward with all her might.

Shouldn’t she be the one bossing around in the martial world?

Why, did Aunt take the wrong script?

“Presumably, Shang Yi has never seen Princess Xuancheng?”

Xiao Baoxin’s words shut Guo Shangyi up. If one were to say who was the most unruly in the palace, it would definitely be the princess of Xuancheng. She was a proper and prideful daughter of the heavens, but who would say that she was unruly? Were they blind?

Or was flattery already shameless?

He couldn’t retort.

Moreover, the identity of the person who said this was obvious. She was a good friend of Princess Xuancheng, a fierce tiger wife that even Xie Pushe feared, and the arrogant and despotic eldest daughter of the Sikong family. No matter what identity she had, she was enough to challenge her.

“Was Guo Shangyi brought up by the plebeian Wang? I vaguely remember that the Wang family’s upbringing was the best and most particular. I think Shangyi’s rules are also very good. They are very orderly, as if they were carefully crafted by the most ingenious craftsmen in the world.”

Guo Shangyi’s face turned green. These words were said by others, and she could not refute them. It was not because of Xiao Baoxin’s status. No matter how high her status was, she was in charge of the rules in the palace and could also speak up. No matter how domineering Xiao Baoxin was, he would not dare to hit the people in the palace. Moreover, she had an official position. No matter how noble Xiao Baoxin was, he was only Madam Xiao. Other than the imperial family, there was no such thing as an imperial mandate in Daliang.

The main thing was that, as Xiao Baoxin said, she was really promoted by Empress Wang.

She had always been highly regarded by Empress Wang.

If it was an ordinary person in charge of the harem, they would have changed the old person. However, Empress Dowager Pan did not fight for fame and wealth. She was most impatient with these things, so the harem structure basically maintained the appearance of Empress Wang, so she did not change much.

Guo Shangyi could not argue with the plebeian Wang.

“I was ordered by the Grand Empress Dowager to teach the Empress the rules of the palace. I have never said that the Xie family’s rules are bad. It’s just that the palace is different. Perhaps Furen and Niangzi don’t understand and misunderstand.”

Guo Shangyi had been in the palace for twelve years and had been in Shangyi’s position for five to six years. He was not a freeloader. He was defeated by a few words.

The reason why she didn’t compete with them was because she was polite and knew shame.

If there was a reason, it was because of their relationship as father, brother, and husband.

“I remember that when Daliang was founded, all the etiquette in the palace was decided by the Xie and Wang families. When it came to Guo Shangyi, she actually said that the daughter of the Xie family did not know the rules and misunderstood?”

“Does Guo Shangyi know that the Empress of the Great Ancestor is surnamed Xiao?”

He could also say that women from aristocratic families could not afford to be hurt. As long as they did not use their fists, they could talk you to death with their mouths.

In terms of family background and rules, what was the imperial family?

In the past two years, the royal family had become arrogant. In terms of family background, they really could not compare to the aristocratic families. They had a history of hundreds of years. Just moving their ancestors would kill you. The descendants of the aristocratic families really did not look down on anyone.

Xiao Ning was deep in thought when she heard this.” We sisters can chat for a while. There’s no need for so many people to wait on us. You can all go out.””

Her words were directed at the maids in the room, including Guo Shangyi.”Shangyi, you should go and rest first. It’s not appropriate for you to come out and greet people at such an occasion..”
