In her past life, she defied her father and brothers and exhausted all her efforts to support that scum of a man to the throne, only to have him slaughter her entire family in return.
Reborn ...
Upon hearing that he was to be given a fine steed, the Eighth Prince's slightly bruised eyes lit up instantly. "Is it a thoroughbred like mine and Sixth Brother's?"
Wei Huan said, "The horse of the Prince of Ling is one in a million. My Wei family only has this one. It is no less than the horse sent to the Eighth Prince.
He can't compare to Sixth Brother, but he's no worse than the Prince of Yanping and the others. The Eighth Prince is content.
The Eighth Prince looked at Xie Jingyan, "Sixth Brother..."
Although he really wanted it, the Eighth Prince dared not accept it unless Xie Jingyan gave the order.
Xie Jingyan said, "This was given to you by Young Master Wei, so please accept it."
The Fourth Young Master Wei and the Eighth Prince got into a fight, and the brothers said they wouldn't feel at ease if the Eighth Prince didn't accept the horse.
The Eighth Prince was immediately pleased and found the Fourth Young Master Wei much more agreeable.
Xie Jingyan was to escort the Eighth Prince back to the palace. As for the horse, it could only be kept at the Ling Prince's residence for the time being. Young Master Wei also took Young Master Wei the Fourth and left.
None of them took the parrot with them.
Tang Ze asked, "What about the parrot? You don't want it anymore?"
Young Master Wei really wanted it, but his father had sold the parrot, so it was no longer his parrot.
Xie Jingyan had been wanting to get rid of the parrot for a long time. Could he take the parrot back and continue to speak rudely to him?
Xie Jingyan said, "A gentleman does not take what others cherish. This parrot will be taken away by the Fourth Young Master."
Wei Huan said, "How can this be? My father has already sold the parrot. It was a parrot from the Ling Prince's residence."
My own father finally managed to sell the parrot, how could I bring it back?
Xie Jingyan couldn't refuse, since the Wei family had already received money from selling the parrot, and he had also spent money to buy it. However, he really didn't want to take the parrot back, so he found a place to throw it away.
Um.
It was thrown to the Emperor.
Xie Jingyan escorted the Eighth Prince back to the palace. The Eighth Prince had fought with the Fourth Young Master Wei, and had bruises on his face. He had to explain a few things on their behalf so that the Emperor wouldn't punish the Eighth Prince or take his anger out on the Wei family.
The Emperor, seated on his dragon throne, saw the Eighth Prince's bruised and swollen face and his expression darkened. "You got into a fight and ended up like this?!"
The Eighth Prince whispered, "Fourth Young Master Wei's injuries are no less severe than mine..."
The Emperor said with a dark face, "Should I praise you for being a good fighter?!"
The Eighth Prince shook his head repeatedly, "Your subject dares not, Your subject knows he was wrong."
The Emperor glanced at Xie Jingyan, who said, "Father, please calm down. There is some misunderstanding in this matter. Eighth Prince did not intentionally fight with anyone."
The emperor was stunned by the words "Father, please calm down," and his anger indeed subsided. He did not reprimand the Eighth Prince again.
Xie Jingyan presented the parrot, saying, "This parrot is quite clever. Father Emperor can play with it to relieve his fatigue from reviewing memorials."
He actually presented the parrot to his father, the emperor.
Did the sun rise in the west today?
The Emperor glanced at Eunuch Yuan, who then went over to take the parrot.
With nothing else to say, Xie Jingyan took his leave.
After he and the Eighth Prince withdrew, Eunuch Yuan said, "This parrot is very clever. Prince Ling is actually willing to offer it as a tribute to Your Majesty."
The Emperor glanced at Eunuch Yuan and asked, "Are you sure Yan'er didn't use this parrot to insult me on his behalf?"
Eunuch Yuan, "..."
Eunuch Yuan fell silent. "Then Your Majesty, will you still accept it?"
The emperor remained silent.
This was the first time Xie Jingyan had given him something from his father since Consort Chen's incident. How could he refuse it?
The emperor felt heartbroken just thinking about it.
The Emperor looked at the parrot and said, "If you dare to insult me, I will pluck one of your feathers, do you hear me?"
The parrot ignored him.
The emperor tapped the parrot on the head.
The parrot grumbled, "You should be a good person!"
emperor,"……"
Eunuch Yuan, "..."
