Play Speak
Chapter 920: Chapter 920-Heartbreaking
Emperor Yong Ping had such intentions. Although it was Xie Xian’s idea, it was like a worm that had crawled into the Emperor’s stomach.
However, Sikong Xiao had outstanding military achievements. Wasn’t it good for him to enjoy his retirement in Jiankang City? He had to go to the border of Xuzhou.
He had the intention, but he was also afraid that Sikong Xiao would be oversensitive and chill the heart of the meritorious minister.
Xie Xiandi was different. He was Sikong Xiao’s son-in-law. If they wanted to cheat Sikong Xiao, then it was their own family.
“.. Was this alright? Sikong was getting older and had a high position and power…I can’t bear it.”
Xie Xian,[If your eyes weren’t so bright that they almost blinded me, I would have believed you.]
“Daliang is currently in a troubled period. Although it is difficult, I believe that Sikong is a righteous person who is duty-bound for the country and the people.”
“All these years, Sikong has risked his life for Daliang. His loyalty is evident.”
Although he had blown up his father-in-law Tai Shan’s rainbow-like fart, what he said was true. It was also true that Emperor Yong Ping still trusted Sikong Xiao very much.
There was no need for him to compete, fight, or play politics. He had never disappointed him or even the previous emperor.
“Daliang needs Sikong, and I need Sikong.”Emperor Yong Ping sighed. “In that case, Zhen will agree to my beloved minister’s recommendation. However, once the situation in Northern Wu stabilized, he would definitely ask Sikong to return to the court to take charge of the overall situation.”
Xie Xian smiled.
It was really not something that could be done overnight to stabilize the situation.
However, it was inconvenient for Sikong Xiao to return now. It was not that Xu Prefecture could not do without Sikong Xiao, but Xie Xian felt that it was imperative for him to stay in Xu Prefecture at this time.
The imperial edict was sent out the next day. At the same time, Chu Yan’s transfer order was issued. Once the personnel were deployed, they would bring the army back to the capital.
After Madam Xie received news that Sikong Xiao was going to stay in Xuzhou, she tossed and turned for several nights after thinking about it. After all, Sikong Xiao was old and had a headache. He said that he would return once the situation in Xu Prefecture stabilized. Who knew when it would stabilize?
However, she could not bear to part with that child, Dingbang.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was like a child who had not grown up. She only knew how to play and make a scene when she was with Xiao Baoshu. If not for the recent war in Daliang and the heavy atmosphere, the two of them would have flown into the sky.
When Xuzhou was at its most lively, the two of them even secretly went out of the city to play. They either rode horses or went on a boat. They also went to temples and Taoist temples with Xiao Lingyu. In any case, they were not idle.
The child was like someone else’s child. He hugged her for a while and threw her away for a while. When he was addicted to playing, he acted like he was a three-year-old child.
Although Xiao Dingbang was watched over by the nannies in the palace, he was brought up by Madam Xie, who was even more attentive than when he was in Andu.
Dingbang clung to her even more than Xuancheng Eldest Princess.
On one hand, she couldn’t bear to part with Sikong Xiao, and on the other hand, she couldn’t bear to part with her own grandson. Moreover, she was too comfortable in Jiankang City. She didn’t seem to be able to adapt to the sudden change of location.
In the end, she finally made up her mind. Xiao Baoxin came to her door. Before she could say what was on her mind, Xiao Baoxin persuaded her to go to Xuzhou first.
This made Madam Xie very passive, as if she was the one who abandoned her daughter.
“Originally, I wanted to go as well. However, I was reluctant to part with Dingbang…” Letting her take away the Eldest Princess ‘first child, the Emperor’s nephew, was unrealistic.
Even if she was asked to lead, she could not. Xuzhou and Jiankang were different. It would be different when they fought.
“Father is old, it’s impossible for him to not have someone to take care of him. Mother, are you at ease?” Xiao Baoxin didn’t need to say anything. Would he take care of his father personally, or would his father find someone to take care of him?
In Sikong Xiao’s position, not to mention a little widow who knew her own pain and warmth, even a young lady in her teens would chase after her.
Xie Xian asked her to persuade him, so she came over to persuade him. He definitely had his own plans.
Otherwise, she actually didn’t want to get involved in the matters of her parents. They were all elders. If she went, her mother would suffer. If she didn’t go, her father would suffer. Who else could she let suffer?
It was better to let them decide for themselves. They were not children anymore.
Madam Xie snorted.” Your father is still in pain. Are you afraid that no one will take care of him?””
If he let himself go, he could bring back a whole bunch of them when things were over. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
It wasn’t like he hadn’t had a dark history in the past, but he didn’t know what it meant to keep his body as pure as jade. He didn’t have the self-awareness of a son-in-law.
However, Sikong Xiao had always been ordered around by various emperors. He was either going to fight here or there, so he didn’t have the time.
“You don’t have to tell me this. When have you ever cared about this? It must be son-in-law who asked you to come, right?”
Xiao Baoxin was stunned. He was surprised.
Since when did his mother’s intelligence go online?
“He has his own plans. You don’t have to tell me-even if you did, you might not know. I’ll just listen. I don’t care about anything else. When do you want me to leave? Do you have a day?”
Madam Xie expressed that she shouldn’t always think of her as a fool. It was just that she didn’t like to scheme or use her brain.
She didn’t know the current situation in Jiankang, so how could she not hear it from the rumors?
Her son-in-law was shrewd and calculative. He never spoke without reason. If he wanted her to leave, there must be a reason for her to leave.
She had originally wanted to stay for half a year and at least raise Dingbang, but since her son-in-law was urging her, she would get lost as soon as possible.
Xiao Baoxin didn’t feel embarrassed that his mother had exposed him.”I think so too. Whatever he says goes. My brain can’t keep up.”
“I believe you.”
Xiao Baoxin,”My dear mother, it hurts my heart.”
This side effortlessly settled Madam Xie. When the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng rushed over, the date of departure had already been set. The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng suddenly became anxious.
Who would take care of the child when Mother left?
What else could she play with?
“Isn’t it great that we’re in Jiankang? Why go to Xuzhou to suffer? Mother had lived in Jiankang for so many years and was pampered. How could she be as comfortable as Jiankang in Xuzhou? How many years had it been? Mother’s good friends and old friends were all here. If they suddenly changed places, wouldn’t there be no one to talk to?”
Xiao Baoxin smiled.
“I also said yes, but after persuading him for a long time, Ah Niang insisted on following him. Her heart ached for Ah Father because no one would take care of him.”
After removing Xie Xian cleanly, Madam Xie rolled her eyes at her daughter.
However, she also knew that this was inevitable. After all, the eldest princess of Xuancheng was the emperor’s biological brother and sister. It was impossible for her to tell her everything. Moreover, the emperor’s personality was one of a kind in Jiankang City. Everyone knew that he was delusional. If you looked at him more, he would suspect that you were trying to assassinate the emperor. If you dragged out your voice when you spoke, he would think that you were sending a secret signal for someone to pick you up and make a move. Just look at King Jiang Xia’s current situation. He was too narrow-minded.
“None of you need to persuade me. I have to go no matter what. I don’t feel at ease with your father in Xuzhou. Last year, he had a few barehead attacks. He’s getting old, and he’s not like before.”
