Chapter 224 Prove it to her with your own actions
She spoke softly, but Xiao Jinxuan still heard every word clearly.
He frowned, clenched his cheeks, and almost gritted his teeth, "How did you know that I can't have children?"
Xie Zhuoning thought he had touched a sore spot, which made him frown, and he quickly comforted him, "Actually, it's not a big deal. As long as you actively treat it, there is still a possibility of recovery..."
With Ah Yu's medical skills, he can even bring the dead back to life, so restoring humanity shouldn't be a big problem, right?
She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't notice the man approaching and pulling her into his arms.
The burning temperature on her body brought her back to her senses abruptly, and she felt that even the air around her was filled with danger.
Xiao Jinxuan's voice was low and full of desire, "It seems that I should personally prove to Miss Xie that I am still not capable enough!"
Xie Zhuoning's head felt like it had been hit by a heavy hammer.
What do you mean?
Is Xiao Jinxuan in good health?
But that day, the two of them were drunk and entangled, and the arrow was on the string that had to be shot, but he suddenly pulled away. Even a saint could not do this, right?
Or is it that the reason he left was not because he was not good enough, but because he was too unattractive?
Just when her mind was in a mess, a childish voice rang out, "Mom, what are you doing?"
Just then he remembered that there was a child in the house. Xie Zhuoning quickly pushed the child away and explained in a serious tone, "Well, we were discussing the good weather today."
Cui Yu: “…”
He is already five years old, he is not as easy to fool as a three-year-old child!
Xie Zhuoning felt guilty for being looked at by a child, so he quickly picked up a piece of cake and said, "Here, eat this."
Finally succeeded in diverting Xiao Cuishu's attention.
But Xiao Jinxuan's eyes were still staring at her without blinking, as if he wanted to ask her for an explanation.
She restrained her expression and put her fist to her lips, "I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."
"I'll take you there." Without waiting for her to reply, Xiao Jinxuan's robe moved, and he took a few steps with his long legs and came to her side.
Xie Zhuoning raised the corner of his mouth, "Your Highness Prince Xuan is so busy, it's not necessary, right?"
Her mind was now filled with his words that he would prove it to her with his own actions, and her heart was in a mess.
This was clearly the only way she could think of to get the most benefit at the lowest cost.
But when she really reached the door, she began to hesitate again.
It's not like her to procrastinate.
So she had to take the time to sort out her innermost thoughts.
As if he could see through her, Xiao Jinxuan reached out and tapped her forehead, "What are you thinking about? I need your help."
The force wasn't too strong. Xie Zhuoning frowned and then immediately relaxed his brows. He looked up at him and asked, "Hmm?"
Xiao Jinxuan explained slowly, "The traitor in Jingzhao Prefecture has been found out. Instead of letting Hongxiu stay in Jingzhao Prefecture and confront Yang Fangwen, it is better for you to take her back."
Since Jian Liang left Hongxiu clues about the transaction before his death, he should have also left her clues about the list.
It’s just that Hongxiu didn’t understand, or didn’t care, so she ignored it.
And Xie Zhuoning is a very smart and attentive person, so maybe she can find some clues from Hongxiu.
"No problem." Xie Zhuoning curled the corners of his lips, with an expression that showed he was obsessed with her.
Xiao Jinxuan looked at her smiling face and curled his lips slightly. Then he remembered something and asked, "By the way, have you dealt with the Xie family's affairs?"
Hearing him ask this, Xie Zhuoning actually had a sense of gloating, "Even His Royal Highness Prince Xuan, who is devoted to investigating the case, knows what happened at the Xie family's wedding banquet. It seems that my uncle has lost face!"
It was a coincidence that Xiao Jinxuan knew about this. "Jiang Yao's father asked him to collect Jiang Wu's body, but the boy was not happy about it and came to complain to me."
After complaining for a long time, I still had to get things done.
Xie Zhuoning was a little curious, "Jiang Wubi is a member of the Jiang family after all. The prince just killed him like that, and the Jiang family didn't pursue the matter?"
Xiao Jinxuan explained, "Jiang Wu is a bastard of the Jiang family, and his reputation was not very good to begin with. If he were not the half brother of Duke Zhao, he would have been kicked out of the Jiang family long ago."
In addition, after Duke Zhao Jiang He injured his leg, he withdrew from the battlefield and handed over his military power. From then on, he and Princess Jing'an lived their own lives without worrying about state affairs.
For him to challenge the Crown Prince for a half-brother who is full of evil deeds must mean that he thinks his current life of wealth and leisure is enough.
"No wonder."
No wonder Xiao Bicheng ordered the shooting of Master Jiang Wu. Perhaps he felt that there was no need to control the Jiang family anymore?
But Duke Zhao was made a marquis for his military achievements. Even if he retired due to injuries, how could he not have some family assets with him?
Just when she was thinking about whether to recruit Duke Zhao into the alliance, she suddenly remembered that Princess Jing'an seemed to have an inexplicable hostility towards her.
But she remembered that she had never offended Princess Jing'an!
I can't figure it out, and I'm too lazy to think about it anymore.
Xie Zhuoning went to Jingzhao Prefecture to pick up Hongxiu, and then returned to Zhenyang Marquis Mansion.
After asking Fuling to arrange a place for Hongxiu to stay, and asking Hongxiu to come find her when she remembered any details, she took off her clothes and took a nice bath.
While I was enjoying the bath, a vague thought suddenly came to my mind: "I seem to have forgotten something."
What did you forget?
At this moment, Yu Fusi.
The resentment in Song Yuqiu can breed ten thousand evil spirits.
"Sister Zhuo Ning doesn't want me anymore...Sister Zhuo Ning doesn't want me anymore..."
…
When Ling Xiao brought Song Yuqiu back, the little girl's face was as black as a piece of charcoal.
"I will never talk to Sister Zhuo Ning again!"
Before she finished her words, she saw Xie Zhuoning coming out of the house. When he saw her, he immediately waved with a smile, "Ah Yu, are you back? I left a small cake for you. It's your favorite grape flavor."
The dark face suddenly turned bright, Song Yuqiu smiled as if he didn't need any money, and immediately ran over, "I'm coming!"
Ling Xiao, who witnessed the whole process, almost dropped his jaw to the ground.
"Are all women so good at changing their expressions?"
No, there is one exception.
Xia Ju's stinky face has never changed in a hundred years.
Seeing her at the door, he raised the corner of his mouth and was about to raise his hand to greet her.
As a result, she didn't even look at him, turned around and followed Xie Zhuoning into the house.
Ling Xiao took his hand back and touched his nose, "Why do everyone like to hang around Miss Xie?"
Xia Ju is, Miss Song is, and even my own grandfather is.
It seems I have to find an opportunity to ask Miss Xie for advice someday on how to please others.
In the guest room.
Murong Yan was sorting out the list of people attending the Xie Mansion's wedding banquet that Xie Zhuoning had written down silently.
"Yan'er, have a bowl of soup. Mother just made it." Murong Yan's mother placed the soup on the table in front of him.
Without even looking at it, Murong Yan picked it up and drank it all in one gulp, without even raising his eyes from the list.
His mother stood in front of him, hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong, mother?" Murong Yan raised his head when he noticed that something was wrong with her mood.
"It's about your marriage with Ning Ning. You two are already grown up, isn't it time to get it done as soon as possible?"
