Chapter 473 Xie Tingsheng X Wen Xi Side Story (End)
Wenxi felt that he was just acting out of common sense. He clutched his blanket tightly and looked at the person warily. In Xie Tingsheng's eyes, this only made him look cute.
The knocking outside the dark room drew their attention. Xie Tingsheng got dressed and left, but he didn't intend to let Wenxi go.
"Xie Tingsheng, just let me go!"
"Vice Pavilion Master, stop shouting. No one will come to save you no matter how much you shout."
"His Highness said that he will release you when you are willing to be his Crown Princess."
"Vice Pavilion Master, please don't take offense at our bluntness, but the way you looked at His Highness just now was anything but innocent. If you really disliked His Highness, you would have already made a huge scene. Why would you have taken the initiative to do that kind of thing?"
Wen Xi looked at the two of them with murderous intent. "How much did you both hear?"
The two shook their heads and then nodded.
"What's the meaning?"
"What I should have heard, I didn't hear; but what I shouldn't have heard, I heard perfectly clearly."
Wenxi: "..."
If he could choose how to die, he would prefer not to die in a social setting.
"Vice Pavilion Master, please think this through carefully. Do you even have His Highness in your heart?"
The two left those words and closed the door to the dark room, leaving Wenxi alone to play with the chain on her ankle.
He carefully recalled every moment he had shared with Xie Tingsheng over the years. It would be a lie to say he wasn't moved. No one understood him or doted on him more than Xie Tingsheng.
In this respect, even his parents were no match for Xie Tingsheng.
Xie Tingsheng will do anything to make himself happy, as long as it's something he likes; and when it comes to things he doesn't want to do, he'll do the opposite to help him.
No matter what she wanted to do, Xie Tingsheng was always the first person to stand by her side.
Wenxi thought the two men were right. If he really had no feelings for Xie Tingsheng, then given his personality, he would never let Xie Tingsheng tie him up in the dark room, let him do this and that, and it would even be his initiative.
******
Over the course of several days, Wenxi's initial dissatisfaction and resistance have given way to her current acceptance of it as the norm.
"Ah Wen, it seems that Ah Wen does have some feelings for me after all."
Wenxi nestled in someone's arms and instructed that person, "My back hurts, rub it for me."
"Yes, madam!"
Wenxi glared at him angrily, but didn't correct him.
But I let out a heavy sigh in my heart.
I wonder if his father would faint from anger if he found out that he and Xie Tingsheng were together.
One day, during the morning court session, Xie Tingsheng and Wenxi's affair was unexpectedly exposed.
The general was shocked by the news and even doubted that he had heard correctly. He repeatedly asked Xie Tingsheng for confirmation, "Your Highness, this old minister still did not hear what Your Highness said clearly. Please repeat it."
Xie Tingsheng said in a low voice, feeling a little guilty, "Wenxi... is my wife."
Immediately afterwards, he was brutally beaten.
He was punched so hard by General Wen that he vomited blood, and he felt a dense, throbbing pain in his chest.
Fortunately, a group of military officers stopped him, otherwise he would have been beaten to death by Wenxi's father.
You can beat him up, but don't kill him. How can he be with Wenxi if you kill him?
"Can't hit him? Why can't I hit him? That's my son, born when I was old, and he got kidnapped by another man. Wouldn't you be angry?"
"Don't even mention that he's a prince; even if he were a prince, it wouldn't matter!"
Wen Zi plopped down on the ground and cried to Xie Hanzhou, instantly throwing the court into chaos.
"Your Majesty, this old minister cannot live any longer—"
A colleague advised him, "Try to think positively. You should have had two more sons back then, wouldn't that have been great!"
"You think it's good, right? Then why don't you let your grandson find a male wife?"
That colleague dared not offer any further advice.
Xie Tingsheng sighed, "Uncle Wen, I, Xie Tingsheng, will marry no one but Wenxi in this life. Wenxi is also sincere towards me, and we love each other..."
"Heh, what, are you trying to say that I'm the villain who broke you up?"
"Uncle Wen, that's not what I meant."
Wen Zi snorted coldly, "Fine, fine, there's already a pair, you'll get used to it, it'll be fine once it's fixed..."
Wen Xiang, standing to the side, awkwardly touched his nose.
Xie Tingsheng's eyes lit up immediately. "Then Uncle Wen, do you agree to me being with Wen Xi?"
Wen Zi snorted coldly, too lazy to pay him any more attention.
After the morning court session, Wenxi could hardly believe that his father had surprisingly agreed to let him be with Xie Tingsheng, contrary to his usual behavior.
"Uncle Wen isn't such a rigid person. As long as we are in love, he naturally won't make things difficult for us. Besides, His Majesty and the Grand Preceptor are going to a neighboring country, and I will be overseeing the country for him. After they return, they will bestow a marriage upon us."
Wenxi shook the chain on her ankle. "When are you going to take it off for me?"
"Waiting for the imperial decree to grant the marriage..."
"Xie Tingsheng! I want you to untie it now. I've already agreed to be with you, so what are you still suspicious about?"
After hesitating for a moment, Xie Tingsheng still untied it for him.
The two returned to the general's mansion together. After Wenxi was scolded, the general and his wife did nothing to him, but they found fault with Xie Tingsheng in every way.
Xie Tingsheng kept agreeing with them and didn't dare to resist at all.
If he displeases the two elders, he can forget about his relationship with Wenxi.
When Xie Hanzhou and Yu Sheng returned from the neighboring country, Xie Tingsheng's first thing to do was to drag Wen Xi to block people outside the palace gates, or more accurately, to block the imperial decree of marriage.
"Huh? Tingsheng, what are you going to do?"
"Your Majesty, your younger brother has brought Wenxi here to request the imperial decree for the marriage. Your Majesty should not have forgotten, should you?"
Xie Hanzhou expressed shock and disbelief at this.
No, are they in such a hurry?
Is there anything that can't be said after entering the palace, and you have to block him at the palace gate?
"No, are you in such a hurry?"
Xie Tingsheng narrowed his eyes. "In a hurry? Does His Majesty not have changed his mind and no longer want to give it to us?"
Xie Hanzhou: "..."
Xie Hanzhou cursed under his breath, "What a spineless piece of trash!"
Xie Tingsheng retorted, "Yes, yes, yes, your humble brother is useless, but Your Majesty is truly capable. You're so capable that you can't wait to return and prepare to marry the Grand Preceptor!"
Let's not talk about who's more anxious. You say I'm anxious, but I think you're much more anxious than I am.
Xie Hanzhou irritably pulled out an imperial edict and shoved it at him, saying, "Here, here, here! This is so annoying!"
Upon receiving the imperial edict, Xie Tingsheng eagerly waved it in front of General Wen and exclaimed, "Father, from now on we are family..."
Wen Zi: If it weren't for that rebellious son liking you, who would be your family?
Before leaving, Wen Zi gave her good-for-nothing youngest son a glare.
Wenxi immediately complained, "Xie Tingsheng, look, he's glaring at me!"
"Ah Wen, let's glare back."
Wenxi was utterly speechless.
"Are you that afraid of my dad? What will you do after we get married?"
"Of course it's because...my Ah Wen protects me!"
