Chapter 292: Thunderous Rumors



Xia Miaoyuan and Xiao Wanyin looked at each other in surprise for a moment.

"Why am I a little fool?" Xia Miaoyuan looked confused.

Call her naughty, call her rude, call her unruly, she admits all of these, but how is she associated with stupidity?

The Fifth Prince stood in front of Xia Miaoyuan and said righteously, "We are here, and you are not allowed to talk nonsense about Ninth Sister!"

After saying that, he looked at Xia Miaoyuan again, "Sister, don't worry, we are here, no matter what time, we will protect you."

Xia Miaoyuan scratched his head in confusion. "When did I ever need your protection? Aren't you all protected by me?"

At this moment, Feng Manman's arrogant voice rang out again: "Hey, Fifth Prince, Seventh Prince, your Ninth Sister, it seems that she doesn't even understand her own situation!"

"Your kindness has been wasted."

Hearing this, Xia Miaoyuan couldn't bear it anymore.

She stood up quickly, walked over to Feng Manman, and asked seriously, "Tell me, what's wrong with my current situation?"

Feng Manman glanced at Xia Miaoyuan and said nonchalantly, "You really don't know!"

"Then I will kindly tell you!"

"The one in Kunning Palace is about to lose his position."

After Feng Manman finished speaking, she also stood up and stared at Xia Miaoyuan closely and said, "As for you, it's hard to say whether you are in such a high position."

"If the pampered little princess were to suddenly fall into the mortal world and become a little weed that no one loves, do you know how you would live?"

After saying that, Feng Manman and Liang Zhirou exchanged a knowing look.

"That's enough! Stop provoking my ninth sister!" The seventh prince stood up and glared at the two of them.

After saying that, the fifth prince and the seventh prince cast distressed glances at Xia Miaoyuan again.

At this time, footsteps were heard and Mr. Xu walked in. It was time for class to start.

Several people returned to their seats obediently.

[No way, did a donkey kick your brain today? ]

Although Feng Manman said many offensive words to Xia Miaoyuan, she did not feel angry because she did not understand what Feng Manman and the others meant at all.

Xia Miaoyuan was completely confused.

What are you all talking about?

[My queen mother is fine, why is her position as queen unstable? ]

Xia Miaoyuan cast an inquiring look at Xiao Wanyin again. Xiao Wanyin spread out her hands and shook her head, indicating that she knew nothing either.

After waiting for the class to end, Xia Miaoyuan grabbed the corner of the fifth prince's robe and walked out.

Xia Miaoyuan stopped only when he reached a secluded corner.

"Fifth brother, tell me honestly, what happened?"

Xia Miaoyuan was much shorter than the Fifth Prince. She raised her head high and looked into the Fifth Prince's eyes seriously.

"Why are Feng Manman and the others saying that Mother's position as Queen is in jeopardy? And my position is in jeopardy too?"

The fifth prince moved his lips twice, but no sound came out, as if he was struggling internally.

"Just say it!" Xia Miaoyuan said in a cold voice.

The Fifth Prince seemed to have made a great decision. He grabbed Xia Miaoyuan's shoulders and said, "I told you to stay calm."

Xia Miaoyuan nodded.

The fifth prince poked his head out again, looked around, and made sure there were no ears. Then he said mysteriously, "Right now, the whole palace is saying that the Queen Mother has lost her majesty and is about to be deposed."

Xia Miaoyuan couldn't believe his ears.

"No way! When did this happen? How come I don't know anything about it?"

For a moment, Xia Miaoyuan felt a little confused.

After calming down, she asked again, "Then do you know how the news spread in the palace?"

"Did you tell me why the Queen Mother lost her holy heart?"

The Fifth Prince glanced around more cautiously, then stepped closer to Xia Miaoyuan and said, "The Kunning Palace was struck by lightning a while ago."

"They all said that this was because the queen of a country had lost her virtue and committed some heinous act, and the gods could no longer bear to watch, so they sent down thunderbolts."

"They said it was a punishment from heaven."

"Emperors and empresses throughout the dynasties, if they incurred divine punishment, would be deposed soon!"

The fifth prince spoke nervously.

[Wow!] Xia Miaoyuan's face was filled with black lines.

【This is a rumor! 】

"There's more!" The fifth prince tugged at Xia Miaoyuan's sleeve.

"They also said that the reason the Emperor made an exception and brought your grandmother into the palace to recuperate was to use her as a hostage."

[Mamma Mia!] When Xia Miaoyuan heard this, it was as if she had just heard an extremely bizarre joke.

【Thunder rumbles in the sky! What is this?】

However, she wanted the Fifth Prince to elaborate further, so she asked, "Why? Why is Grandmother a hostage?"

The Fifth Prince tapped Xia Miaoyuan's nose and said, "You are too young to understand the profound principles of power."

"The Xiao Lin tribe is now in the northern border, and has gathered most of the forces. As the ruler of Daxia, my father must be wary of the Xiao Lin tribe."

"So we put your grandmother in the palace as a hostage."

"To control Xiao Lin's tribe!"

"Miao'er, think about it, with the matter of the heavenly punishment and the matter of the Xiaolin tribe, the emperor will definitely be wary of the queen mother."

"They're all saying that sooner or later, the Emperor will depose the Empress Mother, or even..."

Xia Miaoyuan blinked her big, innocent eyes and asked, "Even what?"

The fifth prince said with difficulty: "Even the crown prince was deposed."

When Xia Miaoyuan heard this, he understood everything.

"So, Feng Manman said this morning that I would be crippled sooner or later."

The fifth prince nodded: "Yes."

"Hahahahahahahahahahaha..." Xia Miaoyuan suddenly burst into unbridled laughter.

[Oh my god! This is the most outrageous rumor I've heard this year!]

[Do you want to make me laugh to death and inherit my pet? ]

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" The fifth prince looked at Xia Miaoyuan in panic.

"Sister, are you scared? Don't scare me!"

But Xia Miaoyuan's laughter not only did not stop, but became more and more intense. At the end of her laughter, she squatted on the ground, holding her stomach.

"Ahh! Hahahaha...ah, I can't take it anymore, my stomach hurts..."

The expression on Xia Miaoyuan's face was twisted in pain, but his mouth was still open and he was still smiling.

The fifth prince also squatted down and hugged Xia Miaoyuan in his arms with heartache.

He murmured in a tearful voice, "Ninth sister, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have told you."

"You are too young to bear it."

"Don't even mention you. If it were me, I would be scared silly too."
