Chapter 207: Doubts

Translator: 549690339

Taking Yang Shao’s path was already quite a deviant move.

However, it wasn’t that Xie Xian couldn’t understand.

Although Yang Shao was engaged to the Second Lady of the Xiao Family, Second Master Xiao was chased out of the Xiao Family by Sikong Xiao. The future son-in-law and son-in-law were not very happy. Other than Yuan Zheng’s visit, the two families did not interact.

Second Lady Xiao took the initiative to throw herself into his arms and even caused a ruckus in front of Emperor Yu Heng. As a result, Emperor Yu Heng’s impression of her was not good. He and Pan Shuo tried their best to recommend her, but they were unable to move her. It was almost conceivable that it would be difficult for Yang Shao to advance even an inch in the future.

Anyone around the Emperor could be promoted, only Yang Shao had no hope. This was the weakest link.

Yin Qing chose to start from this weakest link, which was the most appropriate. As long as Yang Shao had ambition and wanted to achieve something.

“.. He didn’t say anything else, but his words were filled with pity that he had a good future, but he destroyed his own great wall because of the private affairs of a man and a woman. Moreover, he hinted that the Crown Prince had the ability to recognize people and would transfer me out of Jiankang at the right time to fill the vacancy.”

“After that, if you have many achievements outside, you can return to Jiankang and have a bright future.”Yang Shao lowered his voice. He was a martial artist with sharp ears and eyes, so he was very cautious about these secret words, afraid that they would fall into the ears of others.

Wasn’t this the exact description of his past life?

However, in his previous life, he had never stayed by Emperor Yu Heng’s side. To avoid rumors, he had Sikong Xiao pack up and move to Jiang Prefecture. After that, he started his career during the chaotic times of Daliang, and it was in line with the saying that his future was limitless.

How would you know that you were an emperor in your previous life when you bragged to him?

Yang Shao’s heart felt sour.

If he didn’t know about his previous life, perhaps…However, perhaps he would be tempted. After all, people strive for the higher ground, and water flows downward.

However, he knew that even if the Crown Prince ascended the throne as he wished, he wouldn’t be able to last long. It was life that determined fate. With a good hand of cards played to pieces, why would he want to get on the Crown Prince’s broken ship?

Speaking of which, he was not going to board the ship.

There were benefits to boarding the ship, and even if he didn’t board, he had to get some benefits. He couldn’t just silently stop boarding. What was that called? If he did a good deed without leaving his name, would his loyalty be recognized by the heavens?

He didn’t need Heaven to verify it, as long as Emperor Yu Heng could verify it.

Xie Xian was Emperor Yu Heng’s trusted aide, so informing him was definitely not wrong.

Xie Xian nodded after listening to his words. It was Yin Qing’s usual way of doing things, which was basically to lure him.

He was a person who believed that human nature was evil, so any righteousness could be swayed and bribed in his eyes. It just depended on whether the price was appropriate.

“Why don’t Brother Yang agree with him first?”

Yang Shao was startled. Immediately after, he saw Xie Xian smile. It was genial and bright, and even the slightly raised corners of his eyes were filled with warmth.

It was a face full of success.

How could he not be proud? The officialdom was smooth, the love scene was even smoother, the official position was high, and the beauty was married. “Brother Xie, what do you mean?”

Xie Xian pretended not to see the bitterness that flashed in his eyes.”Sooner or later, the Crown Prince and Xin ‘an Prince will blow up. In the worst case scenario, the Crown Prince will make a move against the Emperor.”

It was not that he had never killed his father and deposed an emperor before.

The Crown Prince did not have good intentions when he attacked Emperor Yu Heng’s guards.

However, these words were meaningless to Emperor Yu Heng. There was no evidence, so he could not hide beside the Crown Prince. Once there was any movement, he would be able to receive feedback immediately.

She broke the words apart and crushed them.

Xie Xian knew that Yang Shao wasn’t a muddle-headed person. He didn’t understand what he was saying. This was asking for his promise.

He didn’t want to let this matter go quietly.

“Brother Yang’s loyalty, the emperor will know sooner or later.”

” Then I thank Brother Xie for your guidance.” Yang Shao cupped his fists.” I am a martial artist, not as smart as Brother Xie.””

Xie Xian smiled and said nothing.

Yang Shao drank the tea in one gulp and stood up to bid farewell. He walked high and low again, not taking the usual route, afraid of attracting attention when entering and leaving the Xie family.

Just from this point alone, he had actually already planned it out before coming to the Xie residence. Otherwise, he really wouldn’t have to hide from the eyes and ears of others.

Just as he had expected, Yang Shao was ambitious and intelligent. However, time and tide waited for no man. The Second Lady Xiao had caused him to have a bad reputation and even hindered his future. Otherwise, with Emperor Yu Heng’s personality of cherishing talent, Yang Shao would have been placed in an important position naturally. No one had expected Second Lady Xiao to cut the canal in half.

Xie Xian had always been generous in helping promising people, as long as they could be used by the Imperial Court.

Yang Shao’s move can be used to attack and retreat.

If the Crown Prince had the upper hand, he would have the merit of following the dragon and would have made outstanding contributions. If the situation wasn’t good, he could also turn the tables and sell the Crown Prince to the Emperor. After all, he had already made a name for himself here to show his loyalty. He was trying to please both sides, and he didn’t know which side he would take until the last moment. Whichever side he succeeded in, there would be no lack of merit points.

This kind of scheming, this kind of plan, given time, it would definitely become something big–of course, the premise was that Xiao Second Lady would not drag him down.

Although Xie Xian and Yin Qing weren’t friendly, and were even faintly opposing each other.

However, Xie Xian also held the attitude that human nature was evil. It was just that he believed that knowledge, etiquette, and the influence of the people around him could make people better, or even better.

In this world, interests were alluring, but there were also many people who would not be driven by interests.

Inevitably, Xie Qing drew a question mark over Yang Shao’s head in the small notebook in his heart.

Xiao Baoxin stayed in the palace for seven days. He only returned home on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

Although Princess Xuancheng wanted to keep Xiao Baoxin in the harem, she saw that he was about to get married and still had to prepare for the wedding.

It was enough for her to leave her family and enter the palace for a few days, so she did not stay any longer.

As her mother had just passed away, it was inconvenient for her to go to Xiao Baoxin’s place to get his makeup done. Thus, she gave Xiao Baoxin a small wooden box that Imperial Consort Liu and Emperor Yuheng had given her over the years.

“It’s a pity that 1 couldn’t watch the big lady get married that day. In the future, if Xie Xian lets you down and makes you angry, you can just beat him up. I will take responsibility for you.”It was all because of the thin cloud.

Princess Xuancheng was a lot calmer. It was rare to see her so arrogant and despotic. How could Xiao Baoxin not appreciate her kindness? Who knew that the next sentence would make her so angry that she almost laughed.

“In the future, you will be my eldest aunt, so you have to side with me. 1 heard that Xiao Baoshu provoked a dog teaser. Big lady, you have to watch him. Don’t let him play tricks.”

He was waiting for her here.

There was a saying that one could not talk about people during the day and ghosts at night. It was noon when Xiao Baoxin returned to the manor. The Xiao manor was in a mess. Xiao Baoshu’s face was bruised and purple, and he was crying out.

As she ran, she shouted,” Am I your biological son? How could he hit someone like this? Ever since father came back, the wound on my face has not gone away. If father continues to be like this, I will run away from home!”

When Sikong Xiao heard that he still dared to clamor about running away from home, he became even angrier. He snatched the sweeping broom from the servant’s arms and chased after Xiao Baoshu to beat him up.

It was so familiar. The smell of home. Xiao Baoxin took a deep breath..
