Chapter 42 Your Highness, do you want to see the wound?
"Thank you, sir. My prince is not available. Please go back."
The steward of the Prince's Mansion was quite polite to Xie's father, after all, he was the father of the Crown Princess.
But being rejected, Xie's father's expression, which was already not very good, became even uglier.
This incident caused quite a stir. He knew that Song Wenbo was a member of the Second Prince's party, and his eldest son-in-law was the Crown Prince.
He originally thought that he would be invincible no matter what, but it wasn't long before he was faced with such a big problem.
I'm afraid that what happened today was all the result of the Second Prince and his gang's scheme.
Watching...
I'm afraid Your Highness is fed up with him too.
Father Xie forced a smile, then turned and left with a heavy look on his face.
As soon as his carriage arrived at the Xie family's gate, the driver said, "Master, the second young lady is waiting for you at the gate..."
Father Xie did not hesitate and said directly: "Turn around and go to Tianshui Lane."
…
Prince's Mansion.
Xie Yao returned to the main house, took off her cloak, loosened her collar and checked.
It's really swollen and it hurts when I touch it.
She really didn't expect... Xiao Ji's chest was as hard as rock, and just a collision could hurt her.
Fortunately, she has a body that is good at conceiving and has a strong ability to recover. I believe she will get better in a while.
She was about to straighten her clothes when she heard footsteps at the door.
Xie Yao reacted quickly and immediately grabbed the cloak beside her to block in front of her, "Who?"
She looked up -
I saw Xiao Ji standing at the door, unable to go in or back out.
Although Xie Yao reacted quickly, he had excellent eyesight.
"Your Highness?"
Xie Yao took the initiative to speak, "Why are you here?"
Xiao Ji finally reacted and explained: "There is no one outside, so I am alone..."
Xie Yao smiled, "Zhu Qing went to send a letter to Ping An and Hong Dou, asking them not to speak up for the Prince's Mansion."
"The Crown Princess is very thoughtful." Xiao Ji took two steps forward, placed the porcelain bottle in his hand on the table, and said in a hoarse voice, "This medicine can reduce swelling and remove blood stasis."
Xie Yao smiled, "Your Highness, are you here to bring me medicine?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
"Yeah." Xiao Ji nodded, turned around and was about to leave. After hesitating for a moment, he asked again, "Does it still... hurt?"
"It hurts." Xie Yao answered honestly, and then teased him, "Your Highness, do you want to see the injury?"
"Stop making trouble." Xiao Ji's tone was somewhat helpless.
Xie Yao stopped talking and turned to the main business, "Your Highness, have you made all the arrangements?"
Xiao Ji nodded, "Sinan has gone to make arrangements."
"I will also tell Sister Ying when she comes back and ask her to help spread the word." Xie Yao suddenly thought of something and asked, "Your Highness, in a few days, it will be Princess Yongle's birthday, right?"
"Three days later." Xiao Ji remembered the date.
Princess Yongle is the eldest sister of His Majesty, ten years older than His Majesty, and is deeply respected by His Majesty.
Your Majesty ascended the throne at a young age, and Princess Yongle took charge of government affairs for a period of time. It was not until Your Majesty was eighteen years old that she returned power to Your Majesty.
Xiao Ji frowned, "My aunt is highly respected and a simple person. I respect her very much. Pei Chen, the Marquis of Zhenbei, will also return to the capital to celebrate my aunt's birthday. We must not cause any trouble on that day."
Xie Yao looked frank, "I won't cause any trouble."
She just remembered that in her previous life, Xiao Ning and Song Wenbo had secretly done something at Princess Yongle's banquet just for excitement.
This is not something she can calculate.
Yeah?
Xiao Ji was a little skeptical.
Xie Yao said again: "Your Highness, I seem to have heard that Xiao Ning was pestering the Zhenbei Marquis?"
Pei Chen, Marquis of Zhenbei, was the adopted son of Princess Yongle and a great general guarding a region.
Xiao Ji asked Xie Yao in return, "How much sincerity do you think there is in this, Princess?"
Xie Yao considered and said, "I heard that the Zhenbei Marquis is very handsome. Maybe he will be half sincere to me because of his appearance."
As Xie Yao spoke, she suddenly felt something was wrong.
The look His Highness gave her was... a little strange. "The Crown Princess does care about the Marquis of Zhenbei."
Xie Yao was filled with joy and looked at Xiao Ji with burning eyes, "Is Your Highness jealous?"
Xiao Ji: “…”
Talkative.
Fortunately, at this moment, Zhu Qing's voice came from outside, "Crown Princess, the cousin is here."
Zhao Ying came, and Xiao Ji was not convenient to be present, so he coughed with relief and said, "You guys chat."
As soon as Xiao Ji left, Zhao Ying was led in. "Yaoyao, I heard something happened at the Song family today. Are you okay?"
Zhao Ying walked in quickly, his heroic eyes full of worry.
"Don't worry, Sister Ying, I'm fine." Xie Yao smiled obediently, "I asked Sister Ying to come back because I have something to ask you... Let Sister Ying arrange it."
Under Zhao Ying's gaze, Xie Yao abruptly changed her words.
"Just speak." Zhao Ying said neatly.
Xie Yao leaned close to Zhao Ying and whispered something in her ear.
A cold light flashed across Zhao Ying's eyes. He patted his chest and said confidently, "Leave it to me. Yaoyao, just rest assured."
Zhao Ying left quickly.
Before long, a rumor quickly spread in the capital: Princess Heyi liked to have handsome men as her male lovers.
The reason why Song Li spoke so arrogantly was because she knew that Song Wenbo was trying to get close to Princess Heyi.
There was no mention of any relationship with the Crown Prince, only talk about Princess He Yi's various romantic affairs.
What people are always more concerned about are romantic stories. As for the dispute between the crown prince and the second prince...what does it have to do with them?
According to the version fabricated by Xie Yao, Xiao Ning's "harem" had expanded to a hundred people.
It is widely circulated among the people.
Song Wenbo was not pardoned until dusk. His legs were weak and he held onto the wall as he walked step by step towards the Song family's home.
Passersby on the street pointed at him and talked about him.
"Is this the scholar surnamed Song?"
"Don't mention it, she's really good looking..."
"What's the point of a good-looking man? He also needs a good body... hehehe..."
"Look, he can't even walk. I'm afraid...tsk tsk tsk"
“…”
The more Song Wenbo listened, the darker his face became. He looked at the passers-by with cold eyes, "Get lost!"
Who dares to laugh at his joke?
Passersby stepped back a few steps, but the various discussions continued and reached Song Wenbo's ears one after another.
Song Wenbo quickened his pace, his anger growing stronger...
Bang!
Song Wenbo fell down at the doorstep.
"Husband!"
Xie Yujiao waited at Xie's house for a whole day but didn't see Xie's father, so she had to go back to Song's house. At this moment, she hurried forward to help Song Wenbo up.
But when Song Wenbo looked at her, the anger in his heart seemed to have found an outlet instantly.
He grabbed Xie Yujiao's throat and said, "Why are you holding a party for no reason?"
Xie Yujiao was startled and looked at Song Wenbo with tears in her eyes, "I, I want to clarify for my husband..."
Song Wenbo was helped up and finally regained some of his senses.
He was helped into the door, and Xie Yujiao followed him closely, with only confusion and puzzlement in her mind at this moment.
What is going on?
Clearly everything went smoothly for my husband in his previous life, so what happened now?
Is it Xie Yao?
No, that's not right. Xie Yao was not reborn at all.
“Jiaojiao.”
Song Wenbo's voice interrupted Xie Yujiao's thoughts, "I heard that you went to Xie's house today? Your father-in-law refused to see you?"
"Yes!" Xie Yujiao thought of what her father did today, and she felt angry. "Husband, they don't understand you. Only I understand you."
"I know that my husband will be the top scorer in the imperial examination and become an important official in the future." Xie Yujiao's eyes were full of longing and expectation.
Song Wenbo's eyes flickered, and his heart surged, "Really? Jiaojiao really believes me?"
Xie Yujiao nodded confidently, "My husband will definitely become the Prime Minister in the future."
"But now I have angered Princess Heyi..." Song Wenbo said, and Xie Yujiao also frowned.
Song Wenbo changed the subject and said, "Jiaojiao, I have a way to please Princess Heyi, but I need your help. Are you willing?"
Xie Yujiao's eyes lit up and she nodded immediately, "My husband, please let me know if I can help you."
Song Wenbo's hand stroked Xie Yujiao's cheek, with a grim smile on his lips, "Jiaojiao, you are so nice."
