Chapter 436 Meat and Bones
There were also storytellers in the community who adapted this incident into a story and told it to people in teahouses, restaurants and other places.
This matter spread from one person to ten people, and then to a hundred people, and became more and more outrageous.
There were even rumors that Xie Chuxue and King Ying were already married, and some people even lied that they saw the maidservant beside Xie Chuxue buy pregnancy-preserving medicine...
When it finally reached the ears of King Xiling and Xie Chuxue, the plot had become unbearable to hear.
Xie Chuxue was so angry that she burst into tears on the spot.
She ran back into the room, locked the door, and refused to go out to see anyone again.
King Xiling was so angry that he went straight to Luo Yechen to settle the score and gave him a severe lesson.
Luo Yechen didn't react at first and thought he was being wronged. Later, he asked the servant beside him and realized that he had said a lot of nonsense to his friends after getting drunk.
When he said it, he was just trying to have a good time, he didn't expect things would develop to this point.
Facing the aggressive King of Xiling, Luo Yechen simply made up his mind and spoke directly.
"Now that things have come to this, uncle, please marry Miss Xie to me. I promise to treat her well!"
When King Xiling heard this, his expression became strange.
"I really underestimated you. I originally thought you were just a simple-minded person, but I didn't expect you to be so naive. You talked nonsense outside and damaged Hatsuyuki's reputation. Not only did you not repent, you even wanted to marry her? What do you think of my Hatsuyuki?"
Luo Yechen stiffened his neck and said, "I admit that I did say some nonsense before. I can apologize to you and Chuxue, but I really like Chuxue. As long as the uncle is willing to let me marry Chuxue, I will definitely treat Chuxue well!"
King Xiling did not speak.
Luo Yechen made up his mind, knelt down directly, and begged: "Uncle, please help us!"
King Xiling stared at him for a long while, then sighed helplessly.
"It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that you're a step too late."
Luo Yechen was startled and looked up suddenly: "What do you mean by that?"
Prince Xiling: "To be honest, the reason why I brought Chuxue to the capital this time was to find a good marriage for her in Shengjing."
Luo Yechen became excited and was about to recommend himself when he was interrupted by King Xiling with a gesture.
King Xiling: "Listen to me first."
Luo Yechen shut up obediently and signaled him to speak quickly.
King Xiling: "Xiling County is located in a remote area, and the living environment is quite difficult, especially in autumn and winter, when the wind and sand are terrifying. For a rough man like me, it doesn't matter, I'm used to it anyway.
But Chuxue couldn't do it. She had asthma since childhood and had taken many medicines but there was no improvement.
Later, she invited a famous doctor, who said that she could not live in Xiling County for long in her condition.
It happened that I was going to Shengjing, so I brought her along. Sure enough, her health condition is much better now than when she was in Xiling County.
I can't leave my fiefdom for too long. I will have to go back sooner or later, so I want to find a marriage for Chuxue as soon as possible before leaving Shengjing.
In this way, she could stay in Shengjing with peace of mind and no longer have to go back to Xiling County to suffer from asthma.
You are my nephew, and we know each other well. I am naturally confident in your character. As long as Chuxue is willing, I will fully support you two getting married.
It's a pity that you came a step too late. I have asked the Queen Mother for help and asked her to help Chuxue find a suitable husband.
The Queen Mother has already agreed. This morning, she even called Chuxue into the palace, saying that she wanted to find a man for her."
The more Luo Yechen listened, the more anxious he became. By the end he could no longer sit still and jumped up, speaking anxiously.
"Then what are you waiting for? Go to the palace and tell the Queen Mother that you have promised Chuxue to me, and Chuxue will not marry anyone else except me!"
Prince Xiling comforted him, "Don't worry, it's just a meeting, it may not be successful. Besides, the Queen Mother is willing to choose a marriage for Chuxue, it is an honor for Chuxue, if I rush into the palace to obstruct it, wouldn't it seem that I am too ungrateful?"
How could Luo Yechen not be anxious?
He is so anxious now!
"What if the Queen Mother insists on a random matchmaking? What if Miss Xie is blind and falls in love with someone else? What do you want me to do? No, I can't watch Miss Xie marry someone else. I have to enter the palace now!"
He ignored King Xiling's obstruction and ran towards the palace in a hurry.
…
Xiao Xixi has been staying at Qingge Palace every day recently. Apart from eating and sleeping, she also teases Luo Xiaoxi when she has nothing to do. Her life is so comfortable.
She didn't know what was happening outside the palace.
But she couldn't stop people from coming to her house and spreading gossip.
Yao Zhaoxun, an expert at gossiping, sat opposite her and talked a lot, telling her everything that happened between King Ying and Xie Chuxue.
"You don't know, madam, that Xie Chuxue is now completely famous. People outside praise her like a fairy. Many young men from noble families are lining up to marry her, but she has not agreed to any of them.
I originally thought that she was still obsessed with the King of England, but this morning the Queen Mother suddenly summoned the Crown Prince to Changle Palace.
Although I don't know what the Queen Mother said to the Crown Prince, I heard that in addition to the Queen Mother and the Crown Prince, Xie Tianxian was also present in Changle Palace at that time.
Such an arrangement... Tsk tsk, please taste it! Please taste it carefully!"
Xiao Xixi was stunned when she heard this.
She felt as if she was watching a live version of an entertainment gossip show.
With Yao Zhaoxun's gossiping skills, it would be a shame if he didn't become an entertainment reporter!
After seeing off Yao Zhaoxun, Baoqin couldn't wait to speak to Concubine Xiao.
"My queen, could it be that Xie Chuxue has taken a fancy to our Crown Prince?"
Xiao Xixi gently poked Luo Xiaoxi's turtle back and said nonchalantly, "I don't know, maybe."
Baoqin was so anxious that she jumped up and down: "Madam, they are coming to snatch me away, why are you not anxious at all?!"
Xiao Xixi said lazily: "Look at what you said, it's as if the prince is a piece of meat and bone that can be taken away easily by others."
The prince, who had just stepped into the house, said: "......"
Luo Qinghan: "Who do you say is the meat bone?"
The prince's voice was so unique, cold and low, Xiao Xixi knew who he was without even turning her head.
She was immediately startled.
Why the hell is the prince here?!
Come if you want, why don't you let someone know in advance? !
Baoqin was also startled and knelt down hurriedly to salute.
Xiao Xixi jumped up and knelt to greet him.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Luo Qinghan sneered: "Say it again, who is the meat bone?"
Xiao Xixi immediately gave in: "I am just a piece of meat!"
Luo Qinghan: "Who can take away such a big bone of yours?"
Xiao Xixi blurted out: "You."
Luo Qinghan: “…”
Baoqin: “…”
She wanted to rush over and cover Concubine Xiao's mouth.
Look at what you are saying?!
What kind of meat bone is the prince holding in his mouth? He is not a dog!
