"Second Miss Xu, ... your sister has been found."
Xiao Jingming's difficulty in speaking made Xu Wanyan think of something.
But as long as the person is found, it's fine.
"Thank you, Your Highness. Where is she?"
"I have found a side hall and placed her there, but once the effect of the medicine wears off, I'm afraid..."
Xiao Jingming didn't say anything else, Xu Wanyan already knew what he meant.
Once Xu Wanqing wakes up, it will surely become known to everyone. At that time, as long as the prince comes out to acknowledge her, it will be natural for Xu Wanqing to enter the Eastern Palace.
No, she doesn't accept it.
Xu Wanqing must be sent out of the palace as soon as possible.
"Your Highness Prince Chen, please do me one more favor."
Xiao Jingming looked at the little girl in front of him in surprise. Logically speaking, she was just a young woman who had just come of age. How could...
"What can I do for you, my king?"
Just consider it as paying her back for saving the Crown Princess' life.
Xu Wanyan looked into Xiao Jingming's eyes and said word by word: "Send her to Lu Mingxuan's bed."
Xiao Jingming looked at Xu Wanyan in disbelief. She was indeed not simple.
"Please help me, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Jingming nodded, left for a while, and soon came back.
"Can you tell me why you did this?"
Xu Wanyan shook her head. "Your Highness, this is not the time to talk. I must return to the palace, otherwise, it will arouse suspicion from others."
After saying this, she bent her knees slightly, bowed, and then returned to the hall.
Xiao Jingming looked at her back, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"Wanyan, why did you take so long?"
Xu Wanyan couldn't help laughing as she looked at Xiao Kexin, who was chattering non-stop with her mouth full of food.
"I stayed outside for a while to get some fresh air."
"Oh, I'll come to your house to find you in two days."
"Okay, I'll prepare something delicious for you then."
"real?"
Xu Wanyan nodded seriously. Xiao Kexin was a good child and she was willing to be nice to her.
"Great! I love delicious food the most."
It turns out he is a foodie, but people like him are generally simple-minded and easier to get along with.
Xu Wanyan watched the performance for a while. Since Xu Wanqing was not around, no one found fault with her.
Xu Wanyan sneered. In her previous life, she was so stupid that she always made a fool of herself in important occasions. She thought Xu Wanqing was protecting her and was very grateful to her.
Now, after experiencing such a tragic life, she realized that all of this was caused by Xu Wanqing herself.
"Master Xu, it's been a while since we last met. I didn't expect you to be so energetic."
The one who spoke was the Censor, with full of energy.
Xu Wanyan turned her head and took a look, with a hint of gloating.
The Censor usually wouldn't speak like this on his own initiative, unless... he wanted to find fault.
Xu Wanyan took a sip of sake, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
"Hahaha, Your Excellency the Censor, you're joking. Our two families are only a stone's throw away. If we want to meet, it shouldn't be difficult."
Grand Tutor Xu's face was flushed, but he cursed the censor a thousand times in his heart.
Could it be that he was going to impeach him on such an occasion?
Seeing that everyone else had expressions of anticipation for the show, a gloomy look flashed across Grand Tutor Xu's eyes.
"I have tried many times to go to the Grand Tutor's Mansion to seek advice, but..."
"Lord Chen, what interesting things did you and Grand Tutor Xu say? Let me hear them."
The emperor looked at them with a smile on his face, which frightened Master Xu so much that his heart was pounding.
Censor Chen didn't shy away. He turned and saluted the emperor, then said, "Your Majesty, I live next door to the Grand Tutor's Mansion, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances."
"Oh, what did you see? Tell me about it, so I can hear it too, and let everyone have fun."
Xu Wanyan couldn't help laughing out loud. The emperor was funny and cheerful, but it might cost her grandfather's life.
"Your Majesty, a few days ago, black smoke suddenly billowed over the side courtyard of the Grand Tutor's Mansion. I thought his house was on fire and was about to send people to rescue him."
"Who would have thought that upon inquiry, it turned out that it was Madam Xu who used inferior charcoal for her stepdaughter, which led to this situation."
"What? Is this true?"
"What's so strange about that? Have you ever seen the daughter left behind by the Su family before?"
"No, no."
"So, the Xu family is actually like this..."
“…”
The discussions of the crowd not only made Grand Tutor Xu angry, but also made the emperor angry.
Such a family scandal was actually brought to the main hall. No matter who it was, they would feel uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty, the Su family is guarding the border for the imperial court, and the second daughter of the Xu family is the only granddaughter of General Su. If this gets out, alas, there is no way to tell, no way to tell."
Censor Chen suddenly changed his tone and looked extremely distressed.
Now, the emperor glared at Master Xu with dissatisfaction.
If the Su family knew about this, wouldn’t it chill their hearts?
How could they still have the heart to guard the border for him when their only granddaughter was suffering in the capital?
Thinking of this, the emperor became furious.
Upon seeing this, Grand Tutor Xu quickly knelt down tremblingly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was away from the capital, which is why I allowed that evil woman to treat Wanyan like this."
"Now, the old minister is back. Wanyan, Wanyan has already moved out. Everything is of the highest standard in the mansion. If you don't believe it, the emperor can ask her."
Xu Wanyan sneered. This was the highest standard, and only he would believe it.
"Where is Xu Wanyan? Is what your grandfather said true?"
Facing the imperial might, Xu Wanyan did not dare to be careless. She quickly walked to the side and knelt down, "What grandpa said... is true."
After these words were spoken, how could others not understand that Master Xu was only doing it for his own face?
The emperor gave the man a few mild reprimands and the matter was over.
"Your Majesty, I have something else to report."
"explain!"
"There's a family on Pingjiang Road named Lu. I heard that the son of the Lu family and the eldest daughter of the Xu family were in love. Unexpectedly, Master Xu beat the child half to death."
"Is this true?"
"this......"
Grand Tutor Xu hated Censor Chen so much that he could actually talk about such matters concerning children in front of the emperor.
"Your Majesty, people from Shuntian Prefecture went to the Xu family two days ago."
"Shuntian Prefecture Governor, is this true?"
Shuntian Prefecture Governor quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it is indeed so."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this old minister, this old minister..."
Why hasn’t Maocai come yet? Are Wanqing and the prince together?
Grand Tutor Xu was extremely anxious and was hoping that Xu Maocai would come quickly.
The Emperor looked at Grand Tutor Xu coldly and said, "Grand Tutor, for so many years, I have respected you as Grand Tutor out of respect for you. I never expected that you... would fail to manage your household properly."
He took a deep breath and said, "Since that's the case, I will revoke your title of Grand Tutor. From now on, the name of Grand Tutor's Mansion will no longer be used."
"emperor......"
Grand Tutor Xu looked at the emperor in disbelief.
Unfortunately, the emperor didn't even look at him the whole time.
Until the end of the banquet, Grand Tutor Xu, oh no, Old Master Xu did not see Xu Maocai.
