Chapter 161: Chapter 161: The Heart Is Evil
Translator: 549690339
Without giving Xie Xian a chance to retort, Xiao Baoxin didn’t even look at him. He only smiled at Pan Shuo and said,”Attendant Xie is going to Kuaiji to quell the chaos. I’m here to send him off.”
These words were of a certain standard. What kind of relationship they had, you can guess for yourself.
As expected, Pan Shuo laughed dryly.
“Brother Xie, you really hid it well.”
Xie Xian was speechless.
What else could he say?
In front of an honest person, he was already blocked by others. If he tried to explain, it would seem useless. It seemed like Lady Xiao was taking the initiative, despite the fact that…Yes, that was indeed the case.
Only he knew that he had ulterior motives.
“Brother Pan, Brother Yang, why didn’t you invite me to drink with you?”Xie Xianxiao was clearly changing the topic.
Otherwise, how could he respond? If it wasn’t his own face, it was Lady Xiao’s face.
If Yang Shao didn’t say anything, he would feel awkward. He smiled and said,”It’s Brother Pan. Originally, he wanted to recommend me to Kuaiji Prefecture to quell the chaos, but in the end… The emperor has long planned, brother Pan is worried that I’ll be disappointed, so he pulled me here and insisted on comforting me.”
“Actually, it’s nothing. We all have the heart to serve the Imperial Court. Daliang was full of talents, which was a good thing for the country and the people.”
It was one thing to be so obvious, but it was another to be able to say it so frankly.
At least he was broad-minded and not a petty person.

“That’s right. Brother Xie also recommended you to the emperor and specifically asked you to go to Kuaiji with him. However…After a while.” Pan Shuo wanted to point out that it was the Second Lady of the Xiao family who did it. Even the Emperor did not have a good opinion of Yang Shao. He had personally promoted him to be a direct general. Speaking of which, even the Emperor doubted his judgment at that time. The Second Lady of the Xiao family could be said to be tireless. A great opportunity had been missed just like that.
However, no matter how stunned Pan Shuo was, he couldn’t say it out loud in front of Lady Xiao. After all, they shared the same surname, Xiao. No matter how hard they fought, their bones were still connected. It wasn’t worth it for them to retort.
He did not say it too clearly, but everyone present was not a fool. Everyone could hear it.
Yang Shao was rather touched. He had not expected Xie Xian to actually recommend him to the Emperor, and his admiration for him grew.
In the past, he had thought that the two of them were interested in Lady Xiao and would only have the intention of showing each other. In the end, it seemed that he was the only one who thought this way. Xie Xian was upright and upright, and absolutely did not hide anything.
“Thank you, brother.””
“No, it’s because I think Brother Yang is competent, not because of our friendship.”Xie Xian said. “Brother Yang has talent, so don’t let it affect you. When the time comes, you will definitely be able to display your ambition.”
Yang Shao let him say heart surging, said really can let love rival so praise, he was proud.
Although he seemed to be the only one who thought so.
“Alright, stop praising each other. I’m an adult standing here. Can you praise me?”Pan Shuo didn’t want to do it anymore. He thought that Yang Shao didn’t have a good job, so he must be uncomfortable. He had promised him but didn’t do it. He was also embarrassed and guilty. What could he do? He had no weight in front of the Emperor, and he had shown off too early…
Only good wine could relieve her worries, so she pulled Yang Shao along to drown her sorrows in wine.
In the end, when Yang Shao and Xie Xian chatted, they were so deep and meaningful, making him seem a little too vulgar.
He had to reflect on himself!
With Pan Shuo’s ruckus, the atmosphere relaxed. Xie Xian was originally undistracted, but when Yang Shao learned that Xie Xian had recommended him to the Emperor, the last bit of knot in his heart dissipated.
His only regret was not that he did not marry Lady Xiao. His biggest regret in this life and in his previous life was that he had gotten involved with Xiao Jing ‘ai.
In his previous life, he had achieved success and fame, which was why he had ’true love’ with Xiao Jing ‘ai.
Oh my god, just thinking about the word ‘true love’ made him want to vomit.
This life was even worse. Before he could even show his face, Xiao Jing ‘ai had already ruined his reputation.
The Emperor of Daliang, Emperor Yuheng, was a well-known ruler who listened to advice. His favorite minister, Xie Xian, and his royal relative, Pan Shao, had both tried their best but failed to recommend him into the Emperor’s eyes.
As he was by the Emperor’s side, how could he know how much the Emperor valued Xie Xian? As long as Xie Xian recommended him, he would rarely reject him.
This fully demonstrated Xiao Jing’s ability to love plague people. She even changed dynasties and became the founding emperor. God knew that she wanted to be the mother of a country, but even his capital was destroyed! Where could he complain about his grievances?
Xiao Baoxin just stood there and didn’t feel awkward at all.
She glanced at Xie Xian without leaving a trace. She remembered that in Xiao Jing ‘ai’s memory, the reason why Yang Shao was able to succeed was all thanks to Xie Xian’s care in court.
As expected, it was not only in his previous life, but also in this life.
He was really ambitious.
Pan Shuo was speechless. Brother Xie, after you send Lady Xiao off, you can drink with us. I won’t send you off tomorrow, but today I’ll send you off.”
[Xiao Baoxin: I’m thanking you.]
However, she still rejected him politely.” No need. The car is waiting outside. I’ll go back myself.” Attendant Xie will set off tomorrow to quell the chaos. Today, I won’t delay your good friend’s reunion.”
After saying that, she smiled at Xie Xian.” Have a safe journey. 1’11 wait for you to come back.””
Xie Xian choked. Don’t smile at me like that. How can I break if I want to hug her tightly?
Perhaps she had said similar things too many times, but his first reaction was not to ruin Lady Xiao’s reputation in public, but to be led astray by Xiao Baoxin.
Knowing that Xie Xian’s heart was like a volcano erupting, and his face was calm and composed, Xiao Baoxin didn’t wait for Xie Xian’s response. He cupped his fists at the three of them and turned to leave.
“Cool! Great!” Pan Shuo’s eyes were as wide as a copper bell as he shook his head in praise.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith parting imminent, which girl didn’t want to stick together at all times? However, Lady Xiao was different and didn’t stick to others at all. She took the initiative to give them time to reunite.
It’s a capital word.
However, how would he know that Xiao Baoxin was also taking advantage of the situation to break the donkey? If he wanted to stick to her, he had to be willing to stick to her.
Instead of letting him lose face on the spot, it was better to seize the initiative herself.
Moreover, she was after this person. In this life, how could she be here every day?
“Thank you for your good fortune, brother.” Pan Shuo said sincerely. Lady Xiao was not only beautiful, but also had martial arts. It seemed that she was very tactful.
For a moment, Xie Xian was speechless.
“Let’s go to the second floor-”
Before he could finish speaking, Mu Jin hurriedly brought in a certain amount of silver and stuffed it into the shopkeeper’s hand.””My wife accidentally broke the window upstairs…! broke it, so this is your compensation–is that enough?”
Pan Shuo and Yang Shao looked at each other silently. Could it be that this was not a private meeting, but purely the two of them settling their personal grudges? And Brother Xie was the one who got someone to deal with him?
However, Lady Xiao’s tone was wrong.
‘Wait for him to
return’—————————————————————
The fat shopkeeper wiped his sweat.”…”
Don’t look at him. This has nothing to do with him. He has never seen Lady
Xiao before!
He had promised Attendant Xie. Trust him!
Who was that person who had just walked out? He did not know him.. He had never seen him before!
