C136 Arent You Afraid of the Regent (1/2)
Regeneration Palace
Xiao Chengyan who was seated on the dragon throne frowned, his graceful face frowning, he lowered his head and started flipping through the books.
Xiao Roujia stood in front of him angrily, and upon seeing that Xiao Chengyan had yet to make a sound, he shook Xiao Chengyan's arm in anger.
”Royal Brother, I've told you so much. Are you listening or not?”
Xiao Chengyan was so dizzy that he could only put down the book in his hand, and asked: ”Why are you protecting Prince Regent's Consort like this?”
Royal Brother doesn't know how repulsive Division of Punishments are, and even private meals are taken from cousin sister-in-law. If cousin sister-in-law really has something good to say, how are we going to explain it to Prince Regent? In the entire Yan Kingdom, who doesn't know how much Prince Regent favors cousin sister-in-law? ”
”Right now, the life and death of Prince Regent is uncertain, so the matters at hand in this palace have nothing to do with us.”
Xiao Roujia opened her eyes wide, her cheeks bulging with anger, ”Royal Brother, if not for Prince Regent's support, you would not be able to sit here peacefully. Now that something has happened to him, are you not afraid of Prince Regent's cold heart?”
”What do you know about children?”
”You are only one year older than me, how can I not understand? I only know that our Yan Kingdom relies on the Prince Regent, the Great General has always harbored evil intentions, and only the Prince Regent can suppress him.”
Xiao Chengyan carelessly flipped open the book, and seemingly said it unintentionally, ”Prince Regent isn't harboring evil intentions!”
”Prince Regent is a member of our royal family, it is impossible for him to betray us, do you not believe him?”
Xiao Feimo had once publicly promised that after Xiao Chengyan performed the coronation ceremony, he would resign and return the power of the imperial court to Xiao Chengyan. This would also mean that he was hinting to Yang Yuanzhi that once he returned the authority, Yang Yuanzhi would have to hand over the troops.
There were still four years until Xiao Feimo's promise.
Xiao Chengyan didn't explain anything to Xiao Roujia and only sighed, ”Rou Jia, you're really pure. Fortunately, you're a girl so you don't have to worry so much.
”I only know that Prince Regent is someone who will keep his word.”
Xiao Roujia had always admired Xiao Feimo since he was young, and felt that he was the most outstanding person in the entire imperial family. If he was the son of the late emperor, then he was the best candidate to succeed the throne.
It was not good for her to mention these words to Xiao Chengyan.
”Alright, alright. Why do you need to say all this? You went to the Division of Punishments, the people there won't dare to make things difficult for Princess Hua-Yang anymore. In two days, we'll have someone release Princess Hua-Yang.”
”It's true!” Xiao Roujia's eyes instantly lit up, she was extremely excited, and was waiting for Xiao Chengyan to say those words.
Xiao Chengyan was grinded over by Xiao Roujia, so he reached out and flicked her head, ”Little girl, you didn't dare to grind our mother, so you ran over here to grind our mother. I'm really afraid of you, if I don't agree, we won't even have to do today's homework.”
”Royal Brother is the best.” Xiao Roujia smiled sweetly, as if she suddenly thought of something. ”Royal Brother, if I say something that shouldn't be said, I feel that Yue Ying's mental cultivation isn't right. Don't be too charmed by Yue Ying's promise, there are so many good girls in the world!”
”Where did you hear that?”
”I have eyes of my own.” Xiao Roujia stuck out his tongue, ”Royal Brother, you continue with your homework, then I will leave first, at that time I will personally bring cousin sister-in-law out.”
With that, Xiao Roujia skipped away.
Seeing his younger sister being so innocent, Xiao Chengyan helplessly shook his head, and his gaze quickly sank again. There were some things that he could not say, that the world would understand one day.
On the second day, Yang Xue made a private appointment with Xiao Yan.
In order to not be noticed, Yang Xue had specially covered his face with a veil to meet Xiao Yan. The two had arranged to meet at a teahouse.
Yang Xue's wrist was wrapped in a white bandage, and when she took off her veil, she coincidentally revealed the bandage on her wrist. Xiao Yan immediately grabbed her hand, ”Xue'er, what's going on?”
”I went to the Division of Punishments to see the wangfei. I never thought that the wangfei would bite me like this in public, and even said that I was the one who had taken the initiative to bite me. I really haven't seen such a woman before.”
