Chapter 800 I am the butcher and you are the meat, I have the final say
Mother Wang, who came from afar, was stuffed back into the caravan traveling to and from Kyoto by Sang Zhixia, and was sent back as a messenger the next day.
As for whether what is said is what people want to hear, that is not important.
The important thing is that Sang Zhixia wants these people to know that such means are useless to her.
As for the fake death of Madam Xie and Sang Yanyou, what if people knew about it?
Sang Zhixia leaned on Xu Yu's shoulder and said lazily, "Times have changed. Now I am the butcher and the meat. I have the final say."
dissatisfied?
Just bear with it.
When Sang Zhixia and his party arrived safely at the Lingnan Royal City, someone came to greet them before they even entered the city.
Noticing that the person who came was someone Xu Minghui always brought with him, Xu Yu said with a smile, "Didn't he send the news home and arrive the day after tomorrow? Why are you guarding here now?"
The visitor explained with a smile, "The Second Young Master said that the time estimated by the Young Master and the Master might not be correct, so he instructed me to wait outside the city a few days in advance."
"The one who's going home to report the news has already gone. We can just go slowly. When the young master and the boss get home, they'll be able to have a hot meal."
Xu Yu dismounted and loosened the reins. He looked at the food box that was delivered to him with some surprise: "Is it so well prepared?"
"This is Miss Nan's special order."
The man who took the reins said cheerfully, "Knowing that I was here to await the return of the young master and the boss, Miss Nan arranged for someone to deliver some easy-to-eat snacks every day. She said she was worried that the boss would be hungry after traveling all the way here, so she wanted to eat something first."
"Don't worry, young master. These snacks were delivered just half an hour ago. They are very fresh."
Xu Yu was so amused that he couldn't help laughing. He turned around and walked towards the carriage with the food box in his hand. "Okay, I understand."
"Let's go into the city."
Xu Yu had said in advance that the matter should not be made public, and the people who came to pick him up also understood the situation. The three followers who were waiting there mounted their horses and led the way, with the carriage following behind.
As Xu Yu got into the car with his lunch box, he kept muttering, "I haven't been home for such a long time. Do Nuonuo and Yuanbao still recognize me?"
"Yuanbao has never been as brave as his sister. What if he starts crying when he sees me?"
"besides……"
"And you kept nagging all the way."
Sang Zhixia couldn't stand it any longer and reached out to pinch Xu Yu's mouth, saying helplessly, "Is this how you feel when you're close to home?"
"Everyone says you're quiet and steady, how come I didn't see that?"
It was fine at first, as Xu Yu was preoccupied with the Sang family's affairs and couldn't spare any attention.
But after he and Sang Zhixia revealed the truth to each other, Xu Yu completely let go.
When talking about the two little kids who I haven't seen at home for a long time, he can't sit still as if there are nails under his butt. He goes out to run eight horses a day, and when he comes back, he still talks about these things.
Sang Zhixia was really exhausted by his annoyance. She grabbed Xu Yu's forced pouting mouth and gritted her teeth: "If you keep nagging, I'll kick you out."
"I've collected the horse for you, and you can walk home."
Xu Yu shook his head to free his mouth from the clamp, then rested his forehead on Sang Zhixia's shoulder and said sullenly, "Zhizhi, I'm panicking."
"If Nuonuo asks me who I am, I..."
"She knows you."
Sang Zhixia said with a smile: "Haven't I told you several times?"
"know."
Xu Yu said gloomily, "I think you are just trying to coax me."
"People say that kids can't remember things. They forget the people they met in the morning by the afternoon. I haven't been home for a year, and they..."
"Yes, you are right."
Unable to bear the annoyance, Sang Zhixia pinched Xu Yu's mouth again and said unhappily, "Your daughter and son have long forgotten you. Are you satisfied now?"
Xu Yu hummed a few times and reached out to hook Sang Zhixia's waist.
Just as Sang Zhixia was about to push the person away, a strange male voice suddenly rang out from outside the carriage: "Excuse me, is this the Xu family's carriage?"
Xu Yu lifted the car curtain with his fingertips and took a look outside, breathing lightly.
The person outside the carriage suppressed his anxiety and said softly, "I am from the palace. I am here to greet you on the orders of the prince. I would like to invite General Huoqi and Mr. Qi into the palace to discuss matters."
Xu Yu rubbed the back of Sang Zhixia's neck soothingly and got out of the car. He looked at the token that verified her identity and his eyes were deep. "Did the prince send you here?"
"yes."
The man lowered his head and said in a voice that only Xu Yu could hear, "The prince has urgent instructions. General, please come with me first. And Mr. Qi, what do you think, General?"
"Wait a moment."
Xu Yu motioned the visitor to wait for a moment, walked to Qi Lao's carriage and whispered a few words.
Mr. Qi sighed in an ambiguous tone, closed his eyes and said, "Let's go."
"Let's go to the palace first."
Normally, Xu Yu's first thing after entering the city was to report to the palace, but no one expected it to be so hasty.
As soon as they entered the city gate, the carriages and horses went their separate ways, and Xu Yu and Qi Lao rushed to the palace.
Sang Zhixia took the rest of the people and went straight back to the Xu family.
It was not until she entered the house that Sang Zhixia realized that the old man had also gone to the palace.
Xu Wenxiu didn't know what was going on outside. She first pulled Xu Yanran to sigh and then became more stable. She explained with a smile on her face: "The prince likes to play chess with others, and playing chess with the old man is the best."
"Sometimes when the old man goes over to play chess and it's late, it's not uncommon for him to stay at the palace for a few days. It's not surprising."
Sang Zhixia smiled knowingly: "Grandfather, have you been here often recently? Do you often stay overnight?"
"Of course not."
"I spend three to five days out of ten staying at the palace."
Xu Wenxiu couldn't help laughing as she spoke: "Not only your grandfather, but even our children Nuonuo and Yuanbao are taken away by the prince to play with him every now and then."
"I recently learned that you and Yu'er were coming home, and I was worried that you and your wife would be eager to see the children as soon as you got home. The two little ones have been staying at home for a few days. Otherwise, I would have had a hard time seeing them sometimes."
It is one thing for the two little guys to be likable, but it is another thing for them to be pampered by the prince.
Everyone knows that the King of Lingnan is a hidden dragon in the abyss and will ascend to the throne soon.
A child who is favored by the emperor will definitely have a bright future.
Xu Wenxiu was so happy when she talked about her precious child that she couldn't stop smiling. Then she took Sang Zhixia's hand and couldn't help frowning: "It's only been a short time since we went out. I see you've lost a few pounds."
"The child is growing up fair and tender at home, how come you, as a mother, don't know how to take care of yourself?"
Sang Zhixia was afraid that if she disagreed, she would have to drink a bunch of endless tonic soup, so she quickly said, "I'm not thin, it's just that this dress is a little loose, so..."
"Sister-in-law, don't listen to her nonsense!"
Second Aunt Xu got the news and came back. She started talking from the other end of the flower corridor: "I run a satin shop and sell clothes. I can tell at a glance whether someone has gained weight or lost weight. You are still not being honest, girl?"
Sang Zhixia gave a weak smile.
Second Aunt Xu walked over quickly and patted Sang Zhixia on the shoulder, breathing heavily: "You still dare to say that you haven't lost weight."
"Touch it yourself, these bones are painful!"
Facing the disapproving looks of Xu Wenxiu and Second Aunt Xu, Sang Zhixia raised her hands as if begging for mercy and abruptly changed the subject: "What about the others?"
"Why don't I see my mother, Nuonuo and the others?"
"And Jinxi and Yuner, where are they?"
