Chapter 279: Heartfelt Reveal
When Anyueya sat down, Pei Xuanyi noticed that Anyueya glared at Qin Xixi.
Others did not know Anyueya's true face, but Pei Xuanyi knew it very well.
Since Anyueya did not hide her malice towards Qin Xixi, he did not have to worry about anything.
Pei Xuanyi glanced at Anyueya with cold eyes.
This glance made her feel cold all over.
How to describe these eyes?
Anyueya felt that Pei Xuanyi was young, but his eyes seemed to see through everything. There was no emotion in his dark pupils, but he combined divinity and humanity in one.
Yes, divinity.
She didn't know why she thought of such a word, but this was how she felt.
A huge sense of crisis lingered in Anyueya's heart. She turned her head stiffly and shouted at her system frantically.
Just after Anyueya finished her performance, the palace music had not started yet, and the Taifu finally found a chance to appeal.
He suddenly came forward, knelt in front of the emperor, and immediately began his performance.
The Taifu cried and told about the grievances of his family.
"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for us! On New Year's Eve, Chuanqiong was still lying in bed, and he can't get out of bed until now. How sad it is!"
"I have a son in my old age, and Chuanqiong is the only child in the family. If he has any problems, I really want to hit my head and die. I don't want to live alone!"
The Taifu was about to hit the pillar, and the emperor quickly asked someone to stop him.
He was really having a headache. He believed that if he didn't send someone to hold him back, the Grand Tutor would definitely not really hit the pillar.
But if he didn't let anyone hold him back, it would probably make the Grand Tutor even more disappointed and angry.
The emperor couldn't help but hold his head helplessly.
"What do you think, Grand Tutor?"
The Grand Tutor acted out this scene, just waiting for the emperor to say this.
He immediately pointed in the direction of Qin Shu with a gloomy face.
"It's all because of the Qin family! The reason why Chuanqiong has become like this is because of that bastard from the Qin family! Your Majesty must make the decision for us! That bully from the Qin family must be severely punished!"
The ministers below were all well-informed, and they had all heard about what happened in the palace a few days ago.
Their expressions were all quite interesting.
Everyone in the capital knew about Tong Chuanqiong's bad reputation.
Even some of the concubines' daughters in the families of ministers in the court had been bullied by Tong Chuanqiong, but they dared not retaliate. Although
there is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, they are their own children after all, and it is also related to the reputation of their own family. Some ministers have long had opinions about Tong Chuanqiong. Seeing Tong Chuanqiong suffer this time, they are naturally happy to see it happen.
And the Taifu dared to call the fourth son of the Qin family a little bully. I don't know that his own son has the title of "little devil"!
The emperor also knew that the Taifu just wanted the Qin family to give them an explanation.
But Tong Chuanqiong's behavior was improper, and he should be taught a lesson.
The emperor had a headache. Now it was the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, and the Taifu kept holding on to this matter during the New Year's Day, which was so inappropriate.
He couldn't help but blame the fourth son of the Qin family in his heart.
A palace maid was dismissed. Even if he couldn't stand Tong Chuanqiong's domineering behavior, he shouldn't have hurt him so seriously.
Now, the trouble caused by the fourth son of the Qin family is still giving him a headache.
The emperor was depressed and didn't want to talk. At this time, he thought of Concubine An.
Concubine An has always been eloquent and good at comforting others. Why not let her handle this matter.
The emperor only gave a look, and Concubine An understood what the emperor meant.
It has to be said that as a pillow person, Concubine An is impeccable on the surface.
"Master Taifu, don't worry. The emperor has already sent a doctor to treat Master Tong's injury. I believe he will be well soon."
The Taifu snorted coldly and didn't fall for her.
"The wound may be healed, but how can the pain my son is in be eliminated so easily? In my opinion, at least let that little bastard from the Qin family suffer several times more pain than my son!"
Concubine An was embarrassed.
"After all, today is New Year's Eve, and the Grand Tutor doesn't want to make a scene, right? Why don't we just have a good time and talk about the rest later?"
The Grand Tutor hesitated. He knew that the Emperor would be resentful of him for disrupting the palace banquet.
But it was too late to say these things now. After all, the Grand Tutor had already said them impulsively, and there was no turning back.
He still insisted on asking for an explanation, and he didn't want to give in.
The status of the Grand Tutor is special, and even the emperor has to give him face, so at this palace banquet, the Grand Tutor is risking his old face to ask for an explanation for his son.
The emperor is a little helpless with him.
Perhaps because the quarrel was too loud, unlike the soothing music, Xiao Xixi was awakened and fell into a brief lucidity.
She listened to the Grand Tutor's quarreling voice, and heard that he was insulting the Qin family and the fourth brother in his words, and Xiao Xixi couldn't help but feel more irritated.
What are you arguing about?
No one saw that Xiao Xixi's eyes showed a hint of dark red, and the air pressure around her was very low, like the tranquility before a storm.
[What's there to argue about? How could the Grand Tutor have a child in his old age? The child isn't even his own. It's really funny that the Grand Tutor has to raise other people's children to such an extent.]
The whole place suddenly fell silent.
Even the Grand Tutor's eyes widened, still in shock.
"Who, who is talking?"
Qin Shu was startled.
Others might not be able to tell who was talking, but those of them who often heard Xiao Xixi's inner voice naturally knew at once that this was Xiao Xixi's inner voice.
And judging from the Grand Tutor's expression, it was obvious that he had also heard these words.
Qin Shu couldn't help but frown.
What should I do? If others knew the secret of little Xixi's inner thoughts, I'm afraid Xixi would not be able to rest in peace!
In fact, everyone present heard Qin Xixi's inner thoughts vaguely.
But they didn't know who said this. They all looked around, but shook their heads to indicate that it was not them.
The princess could also hear Xixi's inner thoughts, but unlike Qin Shu and the others, she could sometimes hear it and sometimes couldn't.
This time, Xixi's inner thoughts were probably heard by everyone.
She looked at little Xixi, but found that Xixi still had her eyes closed, as if she was sleeping, and there was no sign of opening her eyes to speak.
The princess secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Xixi had the identity of a child to cover it up, and ordinary people would never think that it was her inner voice.
Pei Xuanyi noticed Xiao Xixi's abnormality immediately. He couldn't help but frown and sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, Xixi's ability was leaked.
