Chapter 184 Xiao Jinxuan, she can't take him away

Looking at the little girl's aggrieved and sad expression, Xiao Jinxuan felt distressed, but also strangely felt a sense of joy.

"Are you jealous?"

She still cares about herself, right?

Otherwise, why would he get so angry because of Princess Qingyi?

Xie Zhuoning stiffened his neck and stared at him stubbornly, "No way!"

She looks like a little girl with a bad temper, with lively and agile eyes and eyebrows.

Xiao Jinxuan laughed and explained, "She lost her father when she was young and was taken in by the Empress Dowager to be taken care of. She is also close to my age, so the first word she learned when she was learning to speak was 'brother'."

She was in poor health at that time, and she burst into tears when she was told to change her words. The Empress Dowager felt so distressed that she let her keep shouting like that.

"If you don't like her calling me that, I'll just stop calling her that."

Xie Zhuoning wrinkled his nose, still dissatisfied, "Don't let her call you Brother Heng, and don't let her call you His Royal Highness Prince Xuan. Aren't you her cousin? Let her call you cousin!"

Doesn’t Zhuang Qingyi like to annoy people?

I would like to see if she feels uncomfortable every time she calls Xiao Jinxuan "cousin"!

Xiao Jinxuan chuckled and nodded, "Okay."

Xie Zhuoning asked again, "What if we let her live in Prince Xuan's mansion?"

"It was the Empress Dowager's decision to let her live in Prince Xuan's Palace. She said she had reached marriageable age and asked me to choose a suitable husband for her."

He pulled up the corner of his mouth and sneered, Xie Zhuoning saw through it but didn't say anything.

Everyone in the capital knew that the Empress Dowager was going to arrange a marriage for them, so Zhuang Qingyi moved directly into Prince Xuan's mansion when she returned.

To outsiders, they have already been a couple for a long time. Who would be willing to marry Zhuang Qingyi?

Xiao Jinxuan is a man of many tricks, could it be that he doesn't even understand such a simple truth?

As if knowing what she was thinking, Xiao Jinxuan said, "The emperor recently asked me to investigate a major case, so I have moved to the Yufu Division."

The attitude of avoiding suspicion is clearly displayed.

Xie Zhuoning opened his mouth, but couldn't find anything to complain about. "Then..."

"Those maids are prepared for you," said Xiao Jinxuan.

At first, her life was hanging by a thread, and she was recuperating in Prince Xuan's mansion, but she didn't even have a maid to take care of her.

Although he can take care of it throughout the whole process, there will always be times when he is not there or it is inconvenient.

He was used to living alone and could do without anyone to serve him, but she couldn't.

Her body was so delicate and her skin so tender that he didn't even dare to use too much force when he held her in his arms.

After realizing this, he immediately asked people to prepare doctors, maids, cooks, etc.

I always thought that if she entered Prince Xuan's palace one day, I would never treat her unfairly.

Xie Zhuoning: "..."

Well, now she is in a dilemma.

She pulled the corners of her mouth awkwardly, "Ah, that's it."

Xiao Jinxuan looked at her with a smile, "Are you still angry?"

"No, I'm not angry anymore." At this moment, Xie Zhuoning even wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

After hearing what he said, it seemed as if I was being unreasonable.

He raised his hand and rubbed her head. "Then I'll take you home?"

"good."

As soon as she returned to the banquet, Princess Yunheng came hurriedly to her, holding up the hem of her skirt.

"Sister Ning, are you okay? I heard that Zhuang Qingyi came to see you. Did she do anything to you?"

Xie Zhuoning touched his nose guiltily, "I'm fine, but Princess Qingyi is about to faint."

Princess Yunheng curled her lips and said, "She is still the same. She gets dizzy and starts crying when someone speaks louder, as if someone has bullied her."

Judging from her tone, she seemed to have suffered a lot from Zhuang Qingyi.

Xie Zhuoning put his fist to his lips and coughed twice to indicate that there were others around.

Princess Yunheng then noticed Xiao Jinxuan beside her and was a little dumbfounded, "Little...little uncle, you are here too? What a coincidence!"

Glancing at her with a half-smile, Xiao Jinxuan said to Xie Zhuoning, "Then I'll get busy first."

"good."

When the people had gone far away, Princess Yunheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why is the little uncle here? I was scared to death!"

Xie Zhuoning thought for a moment and said, "There's an assassin in the palace, and he's trying to catch the assassin."

Princess Yunheng was a little disappointed. "Ah? I thought the little uncle came here specifically to explain Zhuang Qingyi's matter to you!"

Xie Zhuoning: "..."

I have to say, she guessed it right!

"Zhuang Qingyi has been making a lot of noise since she came back. She moved into Prince Xuan's mansion and the Empress Dowager arranged her marriage. She's afraid that others don't know that she has a relationship with the young emperor's uncle. Sister Ning, if you don't work harder, the young emperor's uncle will be snatched away by someone!"

Hearing Princess Yunheng's complaints, Xie Zhuoning found it funny, "She can't take it away."

Zhuang Qingyi and Xiao Jinxuan had already reached the marriageable age, not to mention the Empress Dowager's matchmaking. If they wanted to be together, they would have been together a long time ago.

But she clearly remembered that in her previous life, Xiao Jinxuan had never married until her death.

In other words, Xiao Jinxuan really has no interest in Zhuang Qingyi.

It was useless for the Empress Dowager to force him to do something he was unwilling to do.

So when she heard those rumors just now, she just thought it was funny and didn't take it to heart.

Even if Zhuang Qingyi didn't take the initiative to provoke her, she would never pay any attention to her.

As for being jealous, sad and having a bad temper?

However, she saw that the time was almost up and the people arranged by Mr. Murong were about to enter the palace, so she thought of delaying him for a while.

After all, this guy is specifically trying to catch me, and I can't let him find out the clues and ruin the great gift I'm giving to the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess!

…

East Palace.

The palace servants were drawing Bai Yingxue's eyebrows, painting her eyebrows, and combing her hair.

A young eunuch hurried over and whispered in her ear, "Reporting to the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince has gone to see Miss Xie."

Bai Yingxue's heart ached, "Am I seeing this correctly?"

"You are not mistaken. I saw it clearly."

"What did they say?"

"It's far away, so I didn't hear some of what he said clearly. I only heard His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say that today's wedding should have belonged to him and Miss Xie..."

“Bang!”

Bai Yingxue smashed the rouge box onto the ground, staining the ground bright red.

The maids were startled and knelt on the ground hurriedly, "Please forgive me, Crown Princess!"

Bai Yingxue frowned impatiently, "What are you kneeling for? Am I such an unreasonable person? Hurry up and clean these up. If you delay the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony for a while, you will be in trouble!"

A group of maids hurriedly stood up, some tidied up, some drew their eyebrows, and some combed their hair.

Bai Yingxue was upset, "Then He Jinyun is really useless."

She went through so many twists and turns to ask for help from her connections and said that she was willing to do anything for her husband.

I just wanted her to find a "good husband" for Xie Zhuoning, and let Miss Xie bear the rumors and gossips all over the capital.

As a result, even such a small matter couldn't be handled by He Jinyun!

"Where's the prince?"

"I was just summoned by His Majesty."

Bai Yingxue's eyes moved, "Go and tell Xie Zhuoning to come to the East Palace right away, and tell her that I want to see her."

She is now the Crown Princess, and she doesn't even need any reason to summon anyone.

If Xie Zhuoning refused, she would punish her for her contempt!

This is the advantage of being in a high position and holding power!

But I didn't expect that Xie Zhuoning would actually come soon...
