Chapter 106 Yaoyao, as long as you
The emperor's punishment of Xiao Hong and Xiao Ning soon spread throughout the capital.
Everyone in Beijing was shocked.
What came randomly was praise, praising the emperor for his selflessness and being a wise ruler!
But Concubine Li went crazy.
Crazy.
She was still under house arrest, so it was naturally Concubine Shu's intention for her to learn such news.
"Xiao Ning, I want to see Xiao Ning! Let Xiao Ning come to see me immediately!"
When Xiao Ning stepped into the Weiyang Palace, she heard Concubine Li's sharp and hoarse cry.
The palace has always been a place where people leave and the tea is cold.
Concubine Li had been under house arrest for some time, the Second Prince had gotten into trouble again, and the Weiyang Palace quickly fell into decline. At the moment, it actually felt a bit cold and eerie.
Princess Li is ill.
Xiao Ning was also shocked when he saw her.
The imperial concubine, who used to be plump, beautiful and graceful, now looked like a collapsed woman, with thin cheeks and a pale face, and she looked a little scary.
"Mother."
As soon as Xiao Ning spoke, Concubine Li raised her hand and slapped her in the face.
"That's your brother, your own brother. Why would you want to harm him?" Concubine Li's eyes were stubborn and crazy, and the hatred in them was shocking.
Xiao Ning's face was tilted to one side after being hit. She looked at Concubine Li again and said, "I didn't frame him."
Princess Li was furious and wanted to fight again.
The raised hand was stopped by the people around Xiao Ning.
Concubine Li struggled but failed to break free. "How dare you! How dare you!"
"What? Are you going to attack me and your mother now?"
Xiao Ning signaled the maid to let go, then calmly looked at Concubine Li and said, "Mother, you have loved Xiao Hong more since he was a child. Even though I am smarter and more obedient than him, I am better than him in riding, shooting, and policy."
"But I have to give in to him. He has to show off my policy proposals in front of our father, just because he is a prince." Xiao Ning said sarcastically.
"But mother forgot that I am also father's child."
Xiao Ning raised her chin slightly, "If he can do it, I can do it too."
"I am stronger than he is."
Concubine Li was completely stunned. She couldn't believe what she heard, "You, you, you..."
"Mother only has two children, and one of them has been disabled." Xiao Ning looked at Concubine Li, "Mother, you have no choice."
"So, give me the person you have."
…
Xie Yao originally thought that the daughters of the rich families would stay in the Prince's Mansion for a long time, until Xiao Ji took a fancy to one of them, or until the Emperor appointed one of them as the Prince's concubine.
But unexpectedly, a few days later, people from each family came to take their daughters back.
Except the Xie family.
Wei Chan and others came to say goodbye to Xie Yao, and Wei Chan whispered, "It was His Majesty's intention."
"I heard that His Highness went to the palace to meet His Majesty a few days ago." Wei Chan said this with a smile in her eyes.
Xie Yao was stunned.
This matter...she really doesn't know.
Wei Chan left after she finished speaking, and the entire Prince's Mansion suddenly became much quieter.
Xie Yao stood up and walked towards the study.
The summer sun was scorching, and she was already sweating when she walked into the study. She put some ice cubes in the study to drive away the heat.
His Highness is not in the study.
"Where is His Highness?" Xie Yao asked Si Nan.
Si Nan looked innocent, "Your Highness was here just now."
Xie Yao looked at the endgame on the table and the hot tea on the chess table.
His Highness is avoiding her.
"Since Your Highness does not want to see me, then I will go back--"
Before Xie Yao could finish her words, a figure appeared at the study door.
It was Xiao Ji.
Seeing this, Sinan pulled Zhuqing away and disappeared quickly, leaving only the couple behind.
The two of you froze in place, you looked at me, I looked at you, and no one spoke for a while.
Just when Xie Yao was about to speak.
Suddenly I fell into a warm embrace.
His Highness's embrace was warm and generous, with the power to calm people's hearts, and the familiar breath wrapped Xie Yao tightly.
Xie Yao subconsciously reached out and hugged Xiao Ji.
She seemed to... miss His Highness more than she thought, both in her beating heart and in her currently weak body.
She reached up, hooked her hands around Xiao Ji's neck, and raised her head to kiss him...
Perhaps because of her pregnancy, she was more aroused than usual.
She had already taken the initiative, how could Xiao Ji possibly hold back?
These days, he quietly went to sleep with his Crown Princess in his arms at night, and took a cold shower every morning when he woke up.
I can't hold it anymore.
The two of them were so close that they didn't say a word and were inseparable.
By the time the noise in the study died down, it was already time for dinner. The room was littered with torn clothes, looking charming and gorgeous.
Xie Yao was wrapped in Xiao Ji's cloak, and her neck and shoulders were covered with ambiguous marks.
Her face was rosy and her eyes and eyebrows were full of satisfaction.
Xiao Ji's big hand moved from Xie Yao's waist to her bulging belly, and then he felt the slight movement under her delicate belly.
It's fetal movement.
The corners of Xiao Ji's lips curled up slightly, and he leaned over and kissed her gently.
“Your Highness…”
Xie Yao's hoarse voice was a little lazy.
As soon as she opened her mouth, her lips were blocked. Xiao Ji kissed her again and again before saying, "That day I went to the palace to see His Majesty and told him that I was going to die—"
This time it was Xie Yao who raised her head and blocked Xiao Ji's lips.
Xiao Ji gently stroked her head with his big hand and ran his fingers through her hair. "Yaoyao, I don't want anyone else."
"Except you."
During these days, he had already forgiven his Crown Princess in his heart time and time again.
He was completely defeated by her.
Being able to have Xie Yao with him was the only happiness he had in his few remaining days.
Every word Xiao Ji said hit Xie Yao's heart hard, making him dizzy and as if in a dream.
She never thought of it that way.
But His Highness didn't just talk, he really did it.
Without her knowing, His Highness had done so much behind her back, and she...
Xie Yao hugged Xiao Ji tightly, her voice choked with sobs, "Your Highness..."
The two of them packed up and had dinner together, then they talked about what had happened in the capital in recent days.
"Xiao Hong handed in the account book, so His Majesty warned Xiao Ning." Xie Yao said.
Revoking the title and bringing forward the wedding date were both warnings to Xiao Ning.
But even with the warning, the emperor still concealed the matter, which shows that he truly loves Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ji nodded, "It was the Jinwu Guards who imprisoned Xiao Hong."
Directly under His Majesty.
Xie Yao responded quickly, "Is it protection?"
Even though he was expelled from the clan and demoted to a commoner, he still kept his life.
According to the emperor's attitude, as long as Xiao Hong behaves himself from now on, he will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life.
Xiao Ji chuckled, "I'm afraid that your majesty's fatherly love will be let down."
With Xiao Hong's personality, how could he be willing to be imprisoned obediently?
He doesn't do evil, Xiao Ji's name is written backwards.
But that's just right.
Xiao Hong would be a nuisance if he stayed here.
"Your Highness." Xie Yao put down her bowl and chopsticks. "Why don't we help Xiao Hong?" It would be inappropriate to call him the second prince now.
"As for the epidemic, I don't think it was done by Xiao Hong."
Xiao Ji's eyes darkened slightly, and his tone was a bit strange, "Yaoyao actually believes in him..."
Xie Yao's eyebrows curved, and her voice was full of laughter. "Your Highness, are you jealous?"
