Madam Wang was flabbergasted. Things had become chaotic just like that?
She did not doubt the authenticity of Xiao Baoxin’s words at all. She also did not look at the man’s current position in the court and knew that such a big matter was only natural.
However, what Xiao Baoxin said was reasonable. There was really no need to take such a big risk for the matter of entering the clan register.
If it really became chaotic, who knew what would happen? Even if they couldn’t hit Jiankang, they couldn’t guarantee that the news would spread and cause trouble everywhere.
“Thanks to Baoxin’s reminder.” She had lingering fears.” Otherwise, I would have to leave early tomorrow morning.”
“If I remember correctly, your elder brother was appointed by the Emperor as the governor of Jiang Prefecture.’”‘
With his political sense, he seemed to be locked up in the backyard all day long, but he actually knew everything.
Xiao Baoxin nodded. However, since he had yet to take office, there was no problem.”
“In addition, my father has received the emperor’s order to go out to quell the rebellion.”
“That’s right. Sikong Xiao is the ever-victorious general of Daliang. He should be the one to take credit for this.”Mother Xie praised. She turned around and instructed,” Although you’re pregnant and your body is inconvenient, it’s still a family matter after all. You have to send me off.” Moreover, accompany your mother more…It’s not easy for your mother. You should go today and stay at home for a few more days.”
Xiao Baoxin had the same intention. He was even more delighted when he heard Mother Xie’s instructions. Mother Xie was understanding and considerate of the younger generation. It was rare for her to be such a good old lady.
” I have the same intention. I want to apologize to the Grand Furen.”
“What do you mean by apologizing or not? We’re a family, so let’s not talk about the two families. If you don’t even care about your maternal family, how good can you be to your in-laws? It’s the right thing to do, child.”
Madam Yuan nodded.” Go ahead. Our family doesn’t have so many unreasonable rules.””
Xiao Baoxin wanted to go back to her mother’s house, but she never thought about staying for a few days.
If it was in the past, she would naturally gladly agree, but Xie Xian’s body was hot, and she really couldn’t feel at ease without her around.
She didn’t say anything in front of Mother Xie and Madam Yuan, but in her heart, she was thinking about coming back at night. At least she had to take care of Xie Xian. She had a feeling in her heart.
Who knew that after returning to the Xiao Mansion after greeting Mother Xie, he learned from Madam Xie that Sikong Xiao had left Jiankang in the morning to quell the chaos. He didn’t even see him.
“Why are you in such a hurry?” Xiao Baoxin sighed.
Madam Xie rolled her eyes. Her eyes were also a little green. She had been worried for the entire night and did not sleep well.
“Isn’t it so urgent? Forget about coming today, even if you heard the news and rushed over last night, you wouldn’t be able to see him. He didn’t even return to the residence and left directly.”
“The older you get, the more heartless you become. At least go home and explain.”
Madam Xie was complaining about Sikong Xiao’s lack of coordination. She didn’t hear from him personally that Xiao Baoshu had been brought back, so she felt uneasy.
However, before Xiao Baoxin could say anything about Mother Xie ordering him to stay at her maiden home for a few days, he was stopped by Madam Xie.
“I don’t need you. You’re pregnant now. The Xie family has all sorts of doctors and midwives for you. If you were to stay with me for three to five days, it wouldn’t be a problem. But now, I don’t need you to show off. I can’t afford to take responsibility for anything. Hurry back to your Xie family and take good care of yourself.”
“When did your father not go out to fight a few battles? I’m used to it.”
“You should leave quickly.”
.. He was clearly concerned, but he said it in such a fresh and refined manner. Xiao Baoxin didn’t know how to reply.
“You, remember that your health is the most important thing now. Take care of yourself.”Madam Xie warned,” Don’t go out if you have nothing to do. Since you know that the world is in chaos now, just stay in the Xie family. If the sky falls, the men will hold it up.””
“The Xie family has a big business.”
However, even though he said that he wanted to chase Xiao Baoxin away, he still pulled her along and chatted for half a day, at least an hour and a half.
Xiao Baoxin had already taken four or five cups of tea to moisten Madam Xie’s throat.
On the surface, Madam Xie looked confident and open-minded, but in fact, she had always been concerned about Xiao Baoshu. It was because she had thrown Xiao Baoshu to Jingling to guard the tomb that such a thing had happened. In her heart, she had already cursed Sikong Xiao to the heavens.
In the end, Xiao Baoxin couldn’t bear to listen anymore and forcefully pulled his hand away from Madam Xie.
Her ears were about to explode. As she spoke, she was thinking to herself. Her ears were overloaded.
“I’ll comfort myself. Good people don’t live long, and evil people live for a thousand years. It’s fine.”
Xiao Baoxin smacked his lips. Was his mother trying to show that he was magnanimous? How many good people had she killed with one pole? “Then are father and I good people or a scourge…”
Madam Xie rolled her eyes.”
Who did she think she was? How much trouble had she caused the Xiao family and how bad her reputation was, yet she still had the cheek to use words to stop her?
Xiao Baoxin was speechless. Alright, in his mother’s eyes, his entire family was a disaster.
They didn’t get along, so Xiao Baoxin returned to the Xie Family. Xie Xian didn’t return the entire night.
Fortunately, Xie Xian was still a little more careful. In the morning, he had Ming Yue send a message from the palace that Emperor Yong Ping had left him in Taiji Palace to recuperate. If there was an urgent report, it would be convenient to discuss it nearby.
If one were to say that Xie Xian was sick, other than Xiao Baoxin, the one who was most concerned was Emperor Yong Ping.
In the past, when he was still the Xin ‘an Prince, he would still treat Xie Xian’s delicate body as a joke. It was like tofu, and if others didn’t poke him, he would shatter. However, after becoming the Emperor, especially when there were rebellions, he became nervous. At this time, even if anyone fell, Xie Xian could not fall.
Every word hit his heart, and every idea was on point.
Thus, he left Xie Xian behind to show his favor.
Xie Xian didn’t mind, but when he thought of his wife’s pregnancy and his return to the residence, she inevitably came forward. If he were to get sick again, the gains would not make up for the losses.
It just so happened that Emperor Yong Ping was not afraid, so he would stay.
He stayed for two days.
The urgent report was sent to Jiankang one after another. Which state and county had been affected? What had the King of Jin ‘an done?
It had only been three to five days since the rumor of King Jin ‘an’s rebellion, but Lord Yiyang had fled to Jiaozhou and raised his flag to rebel in response to King Jin’ an.
On the same day, King Jin ‘an proclaimed himself emperor in Xunyang, and the emperor’s name was Guangchu.
He set up a hundred officials and sent out an army to attack Jiangxia County.
Xie Xian’s eyebrows were almost knitted together.
Now that the various regions had responded to King Jin ‘an, it was inevitable that the transmission of the news would be hindered. It was unknown how long the news had been in his hands.
Jingling was in Jiangxia County, and the Jin ‘an King had already sent out his troops. It was unknown what the situation was like today.
Jiangzhou was not far from Jiankang, but King Jin ‘an did not attack Jiankang directly…
He was afraid that the Jingzhou governor would play tricks behind him and form a pincer attack with the central army..
