Chapter 164 (1/2)
Chapter 164: Oil Jar advances on the ene to happen, but for the sake of playing along, he asked, ”Your Majesty, why did you su deal,” Ning Xiaoyao said cheerfully, ”I'his ties to his clan”
”……” said the officials Isn't that a huge deal?!
Having been born and raised in the apocalypse, Ning Xiaoyao naturally had no idea how customs worked in this world Those anted to leave their clans not only had to open the ancestral halls and burn incense in respect to the deceased, but also assemble all the elders in the family and leave the record of separation in the hall as a formal farewell to the ancestors They also needed to make a record with the local authorities and other trivial details to make the severance official
”Grand Preceptor, ah,” Ning Xiaoyao said carelessly ”Fourth uncle will be his own man from now all I'll have someone pick up my fourth aunt later”
Xie Anwu only have one wife and no concubines The couple had yet to bear any children, which hy Xie Anwu dared to sneak his wife out of the estate and hide her away before leaving the clan on his own
Grand Preceptor Xie said, ”His wife isn't at the Grand Preceptor's estate”
”Oh, that saves tiet fourth uncle's possessions from the estate I'll have someone pick them up”
”Possessions?” Grand Preceptor Xie sht, he's still your son Grand Preceptor, could you bear to letXiaoyao asked ”That doesn't sound very good”
Grand Preceptor Xie replied, ”Isn't Your Majesty on best relations with hi Xiaoyao's eyes widened ”Grand Preceptor, do you mean to say that I should raise your son for you? Sure, we're on good terh to be pals, but does thathim alive?”
”……” said Grand Preceptor Xie None of the other officials could understand it either Why does Grand Preceptor still try to talk back against His Majesty? It's obvious he's no match for the emperor
Grand Preceptor Xie looked towards Xie Anwu next, who had already stood up and lowered his head after he didn't catch his father's glance the first ti yourself off frorew a little nervous But Xie Anwu only nodded once and said, ”Yes, your son is unfilial”
”Grand Preceptor doesn't want you to be filial,” Ning Xiaoyao interrupted ”He'll be less vexed once you're gone and he can't see you anymore Fourth uncle, ah, where e ever find a son as filial as you under the Heavens?”
Xie Anwu's face turned red at Ning Xiaoyao's words His Majesty's too good at spewing nonsense
Grand Preceptor Xie looked at Ning Xiaoyao and said, ”How did Your Majesty know that this subject found the sight of his son weary?”
”H Xiaoyao said ”Did I misunderstand the situation? Didn't Grand Preceptor planned for fourth uncle to do business in the south? And send him as far away as possible?”
None of the officials in the hall found this strange Concubine-born sons only existed to support the sons of the proper wives For Grand Preceptor Xie to send his concubine's son to the south wasn't wrong at all But the fact that Xie Anas abandoning the clan over so like this earned their sneers and disdainful looks A concubine's son with too ui coughed again and lightly shook his head at Ning Xiaoyao, indicating that she should quit while she was still ahead Ning Xiaoyao saw Xie Anwu clenching his fists and realized she'd hurt him instead of Grand Preceptor Xie with her words After soood terhly, yet you chased hi me in the face, oh”
Grand Preceptor Xie held back the blood in his throat and bowed towards Ning Xiaoyao ”This subject doesn't dare”
At Ning Xiaoyao's words, the various officials' thoughts shi+fted again It looks like it wasn't the problem of the concubine son's ambitions, but another conflict between His Majesty and Grand Preceptor Xie again
”This subject definitely wasn't…”
”Let's just leave it at that,” Ning Xiaoyao didn't let Grand Preceptor Xie finish One of the tenets of et a chance to refute your words ”Fourth uncle, ah,” Ning Xiaoyao said next ”Take a trip to Jiangnan for ot how to say ietting tongue-tied and hastened to salvage the conversation Your Majesty, this subject believes that Xie Anwu could act as your imperial envoy”
Grand Preceptor Xie said coldly, ”This son has never taken the imperial examinations nor done any overnment post befits hies fro Xiayoao si as my personal representative andXiaoyao ”This co Xiaoyao rose to her feet ”Then that's that Everyone's dismissed”
Grand Preceptor Xie raised his voice ”Your Majesty, the Nine Gate…”
”As for Tao Chen's replace Xiaoyao wrested back the topic to her side ”Everyone can et into the details with the nextasseoodbye Grand Preceptor” She slipped off the throne and ran like mad Grand Preceptor Xie only saw a flash before his eyes before His Majesty Ning disappeared froht All of the officials couldn't help but think, His Majesty certainly runs fast…
Grand Preceptor Xie looked back at Xie Anas still kneeling on the ground Lou Zigui approached thein the service of His Majesty, so there's no need to mind how others see you”
Xie Anwu rose to his feet before giving a lo to Grand Preceptor Xie, who tossed his sleeves and stalked off By the ti around hi Xiaoyao had ran back in a rush to stop in front of hiot, Grand Preceptor,” she said, ”Is Xie Anshi+ dead yet?”
