In the carriage, Meng Ying was holding a whip, looking murderous and ready to fight.
Seeing her like this, Xihe suddenly got a headache. Ever since she told the girl last night that her brother was not going to study but became the emperor, she had been clamoring to get him back.
Xihe tried to reason with him: "Xier, Huaiyu is now the emperor, and his status is noble. You can't be like before..."
"Why not!"
The little girl's black eyes were bright and she was very confident: "Since I was born, he has held me, coaxed me, bought me candy, and combed my hair! He is my brother! My brother must live with me!"
"Either he moves back! Or our whole family moves to the palace!"
"We can't separate anyway."
Xihe: “…”
Damn it, that doesn't make any sense.
Forget it, she thought, although this girl is a little bit naughty, she knows her limits. After a while, she will accept the reality.
But this time, Xihe underestimated Meng Xi's persistence.
She just went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager and asked her to go out for a walk, but not to run around or cause trouble. As a result, before she and the Empress Dowager had finished their cup of tea, trouble broke out.
Xihe couldn't sit still any longer: "Your Majesty, I will take my leave now."
The Queen Mother, remembering that she was the new emperor's sister, quickly stood up and said, "I will go with you."
The group left the palace and hurried towards the Imperial Garden. Before they even got close, Xihe heard the arrogant voice of her own rebellious daughter: "Who the hell are you? How dare you pull my brother's sleeve and call him 'brother'? I'll beat you to death today!"
Then there was a noise, the screams of girls, and the voices of palace maids trying to dissuade them.
The girl was furious: "I am a princess! The emperor is naturally my brother. But you, a wild girl, dare to claim to be related to me. I will definitely complain to the emperor and kick you out of the palace!"
Meng Xian was instantly furious: "Who are you calling a wild girl? Who are you calling brother?"
She rushed forward with a whip, and the palace maid failed to stop her, and the two little girls started fighting each other in an instant.
You pull my hair and I pull your clothes, but she was small and the palace maids reacted quickly and stepped forward to stop her. The little girl suffered immediately and was beaten up by the Eighth Princess when she got the chance.
Xihe was standing far away, and when he saw the Eighth Princess raising her hand to slap her daughter in the face, he narrowed his eyes and was about to take action.
"stop!"
Everyone turned around and saw a group of people standing on the other side of the bridge.
Seeing the young emperor in the lead, the two little girls who were fighting immediately let go, and the eighth princess flew over like a beautiful butterfly: "Brother!"
He ran closer, raised his head, and showed a bright smile: "Brother, are you leaving the court?"
Meng Huaiyu nodded, and the Eighth Princess was instantly happy. Then she pouted and pointed at Meng Xi, who was not far away, and began to complain: "Brother, I don't know whose family that girl is from. Not only did she not let me call you brother, she also hit me. Look at this, it's all red."
Meng Huaiyu glanced at it and said casually, "Let the imperial physician take a look later." He looked at Meng Xi.
Among the palace maids who were kneeling with their heads bowed, the little girl stood straight in the sunlight, but her hair was messy and her clothes were torn.
With a stern face, he looked at them and walked closer step by step.
The hearts of the onlookers couldn't help but rise.
Even Xihe was a little nervous at this moment, wondering what the little girl was going to do?
Meng Xian walked up to the young emperor, gave him a steady look, then raised her hand and slapped the Eighth Princess across the face. She ignored the Eighth Princess's face-covering in shock and raised her chin. "What's wrong with hitting you? Not only am I hitting you today, I'm telling you, if I hear you call him brother again, I'll hit you!"
She grabbed the young emperor's hand and declared, "This is my brother. Anyone who dares to steal my brother is against me, Meng Xi!"
The onlookers gasped instantly, because that was the eighth princess that the late emperor loved the most during his reign!
The eighth princess was furious and yelled, "Are you crazy? How dare you hit me! Brother, look, she bullied me--" She covered her face and cried.
Meng Xian rolled her eyes and dragged Meng Huaiyu away: "Brother, don't worry about her, let's go!"
Meng Huaiyu smiled slightly and was dragged away by her.
Leaving everyone looking at each other in bewilderment.
The Eighth Princess was shocked and angry, and was about to follow him, but her father-in-law stopped her with a smile: "Princess, you can't do that. His Majesty doesn't like people following him."
The Eighth Princess pointed at Meng Xi and asked, "Then why should she follow me?"
The eunuch glanced at His Majesty, who was letting the girl vent her anger, and smiled: "Of course that one is different."
Here, Xihe looked at the Queen Mother and smoothed the hair by her ear: "This girl has always been domineering. Please ask the Queen Mother to be more lenient with the Eighth Princess."
The Queen Mother's mind was turning over in a flurry. She smiled and said, "Xier is fine. It's the Eighth Princess who is ignorant. Madam, please don't take it to heart."
The two chatted and laughed and returned to the Queen Mother's palace to continue chatting about family matters.
The Queen Mother's son was imprisoned, so she didn't care who was on the throne. Besides, Meng Huaiyu was raised by the Meng family and was Qiang Wan's adopted son.
Her daughter-in-law and Qiang Wan are sisters, so they can be considered close. She would rather help Meng Xi.
There was laughter and joy here, and over there, Meng Ying dragged Meng Huaiyu for a while. After no one saw her, she immediately shook off his hand and walked forward angrily.
Meng Huaiyu chased after her, feeling both amused and helpless: "What's wrong with Xian'er? Are you angry with your brother..."
Meng Xian immediately exploded: "You are not my brother! Your name is Xiao Huaiyu now, not Meng Huaiyu. You are someone else's brother!" She pushed him hard, tears streaming down her face. "Go, go find your Eighth Princess. She is your sister! Comb her hair, wipe her mouth, and let her pull your sleeve!"
