Xin ‘an Prince did not want to create an illusion for Princess Xuancheng that everyone in the world was his mother. No one would treat them as well as his mother.
She was no longer a princess protected by her parents. Without her mother, her father could not run to the harem every day and stare at her with good eyes.
One day, she would grow up.
“Xuancheng, you and 1 are the closest relatives in this world. We have to stand up for ourselves so that we won’t be bullied. You have to know that the Crown Prince hates me to the bone. The better father treats us, the more he hates us.” “Take care of yourself in the harem. Don’t let anyone hurt you, okay?”
“Brother, you are the only one left…”
Princess Xuancheng cried and said,””We still have Abba.”
Prince Xin ‘an let out a long sigh.” There are 3,000 beauties in the harem. When Mother was still around, Father had never stopped taking care of the concubines. Now that Mother was dead, Father had lost his beloved, but no one could guarantee that Father would always miss Mother.”
“Father is in the prime of his life.”
In other words, it was not impossible for him to guard for a month or two, or even a year or two. However, no one else in his lifetime would be able to do so. Even ordinary people would not be able to do so, let alone the ruler of a country who was rich in the world.
When new people came, they forgot the old. This was the same since ancient times.
It was rare for the siblings to have the chance to sit together and chat for so long. After Emperor Yuheng intended to change the crown prince, his requirements for Xin ‘an King became even stricter. He sent someone to watch over his studies alone. Emperor Yuheng also made him acknowledge Chief Xi as his master. The daily schedule was already full, so Prince Xin ‘an did not hide anything and handed over all the gains and losses to Princess Xuancheng at once.
However, the more Princess Xuancheng listened, the more she cried. It was obvious that the Xin ‘an Prince’s words about the Emperor had deeply hurt her fragile little heart.
How could his father, who clearly loved his mother so deeply, not care about them?
Why was it just them?
However, if Abba no longer protected them…What were they going to do?
Lady Xiao was right. There was no evidence to prove that Empress Wang killed Ah Niang. Brother is right. Whether it was the Empress or not, they were already enemies. It was either you die or I die.

Emperor Epsilon’s plan for Xin An King was not only to marry Sikong Xiao and get Chief Justice Xi to be his master, he even had his eyes on Xie Xian.
To say that he was an honest and upright attendant, he really liked him.
In order to prevent the marriage with the Xiao Family, Second Master Xie and Third Master Xie had even joined forces with the Xie Family Patriarch to pressure Xie Xian. Xie Xian was stubborn to the end and did not even hesitate to ask him to leave the family.
Although the Xie Clan Leader and the other clansmen eventually compromised, it was inevitable that some people would be indignant.
After a period of time, the rumors gradually spread. There was no way for people not to believe them.
Xie Xian did not hesitate to offend the clan for the sake of a daughter of the Shu clan. In the eyes of the aristocratic families, this was undoubtedly shocking and treasonous.
However, Emperor Yu Heng, who had lost his beloved, sincerely admired Xie Xian’s spirit of disregarding everything for his beloved daughter. He did not rigidly adhere to the secular world and dared to think and do. He was like this in court politics and his love for his children remained the same.
“It is said that heroes are unable to resist the beauty. It turns out that Minister Xie is also unable to avoid it.”
Emperor Yu Heng had asked Xie Xian to stay for lunch, and he rarely had the mood to tease Xie Xian. “What day is it? Can the monks and Daoists calculate it?”
Xie Xian chewed slowly and swallowed the food in his mouth before slowly saying,”Your Majesty is making fun of me. How can 1 be considered a hero? However, it is true that I am unable to pass the beauty barrier.”
“Grandmother has already asked someone to take a look. The seventh day of the third month is a good day to get married.”
Xie Xian was quick, accurate, and ruthless. He was engaged in September last year and married in March this year.
However, when he thought about it, the bride and groom were not old enough to withstand the torment. It was actually reasonable.
“Now that your marriage is settled, Attendant Xie’s spirit in heaven can also be comforted. You really don’t let me worry. It’s rare for you to get married at the age of twenty in Daliang.”Emperor Yu Heng sighed and shook his head repeatedly. In the past, he had even followed along for a while and secretly wondered if his honest and upright Minister Xie was really as the rumors said. If not, he would not want the princess he was chasing and not marry at such an old age.
He could be considered an anomaly in the aristocratic families. He did not care about the reputation of the aristocratic families. He had offended almost all the aristocratic families.
As long as he was in charge, he would not give face to anyone and would not leave anyone’s favor.
He was clearly a good young master, but he had to take such a step that he did not recognize his family.
If it was that aspect of disharmony, it was reasonable to take revenge on society, right?
Now it seemed that it really wasn’t the case. She was about to get married, and she was furious because of a beauty. She rose up and just went up. This was enough to prove that the frank and upright Minister Xie was a man among men. Otherwise, he would not be so hot-blooded. His physique did not allow it, and his heart would not be so impetuous.
Now that he thought about it, it was good that Xiao Baoxin and his sister had fought with the young master of an aristocratic family. After that, when Zhou Weiniang poisoned him, Xie Xian had spoken up for him many times.
It seemed that some of the casual scenes were evidence of his crime.
Lady Xiao had just broken off the engagement with the Yuan family, and the Xie family immediately replaced her. Who would believe that you weren’t already by her side?
What a virgin who has been chaste for many years is simply a young girl who has been a big girl for many years.
Emperor Yu Heng looked at Xie Xian with an unfriendly gaze. For the sake of the Eldest Lady Xiao whom he had yearned for many years, he had put in enough effort to conceal this. He was such a narrow-minded person. He couldn’t stand the sour and rotten taste of Xie Xian’s love.
He was proud of his success. He did not know if the other party did not bother to hide it in front of him or if they could not hide it at all.
How could he, a person who had been sad all his life, handle this? It was so awkward.
“My dear minister, you hid it so well.” Emperor Yu Heng held it in for a long time before saying this.
Xie Xian was slightly startled, but he immediately came to a realization. “The emperor is joking, this official is frank and open in front of the emperor.”
He retorted with one sentence.
This wasn’t court politics. Could it be that he would drag the Emperor along every day to talk about indescribable feelings of love and admiration, all kinds of desires that he couldn’t get, or couldn’t get?
If the emperor dared to listen, he would have the face to say it.
” No matter what.” Emperor Yu Heng instantly adjusted his attitude. Envy, jealousy, and hatred were not the main point. “You are now the head of the Xie family, and your marriage has been decided. Over the past few years, she had probably worried Ling Ci to death. Fortunately, you have a certain way to go. In the future, you only need to worry about your daughter’s marriage.”
“As far as I know, Servant Xie only has one son and one daughter.”
As expected, what was supposed to come came.
The plot is at its end.
The Emperor’s initial plan was to marry into the Xie family to oppose the Wang family behind the Crown Prince and find a backer for the Xin ‘an Prince. After turning the corner for so long, he finally turned to the right path.
“Actually, my sister is already engaged.” Xie Xian said.
” What?!” Emperor Yu Heng’s expression changed..” Which family is it? Why
have 1 never heard of it?”
