The little Fubao in the deserted village made all the dignitaries in the court go crazy with envy

"Father, Mother, why is General Xiao suddenly angry with me?"

Yan Changqing frowned, confusion in his eyes.

The emperor and the empress looked at each other and laughed with delight.

Qing'er is precocious and has always looked mature beyond his years, much more mature than his peers.

It was a rare occasion that he encountered a problem that he couldn't solve.

Emperor Hong Jing patted his son on the shoulder and refused to explain his doubts. "Qing'er, you need to know that not everyone loves you."

Yan Changqing, "..."

The queen covered her lips and pretended to be sleepy, and left side by side with the emperor, "I have experienced great sorrow and joy today, and I am really tired of holding on until now. Come, return to Fengyi Palace!"

Yan Changqing, "...", holding his forehead.

His father and mother suddenly became so lively that he felt a little disconnected for a moment.

What inappropriate thing did he do today? Why did the elders change their attitude towards him?

Yan Changqing couldn't figure it out and had no idea that it was his intimacy with Bai Xiang that caused the trouble.

The young man has a good heart, but the adults have bad thoughts first.

General Xiao carried his granddaughter out of the palace with his face as dark as the night.

The sound of teeth grinding could be heard faintly.

Good job Yan Changqing, I really underestimated him.

How dare he boil his granddaughter like a frog in warm water.

If they, as the elders, are unaware of this, by the time Bai Xiang grows up, things will come naturally and they won't even have the chance to object.

Is that okay?

The daughter was lost that year, and when they were reunited, she was already married with a child. As parents, they were not allowed to participate in the entire process of their beloved daughter's marriage.

Xiao Birang frowned and held the baby tighter.

This kind of thing can never happen again.

Yan Changqing is dreaming!

Good women don’t enter the royal family!

Especially since the harem has always been full of blood and gore, and the people in their family are kind and simple in nature.

In a word, Yan Changqing is not suitable!

He went back to talk to Dashan and told him that he should be on guard against Yan Changqing in the future!

Quietly kidnapping his granddaughter?

snort!

"Lao Xiao, Lao Xiao, don't walk so fast. Wait for me. Our families are both in the East Market. Let's go back together. It's convenient for us." The old Duke Lan called from behind.

Xiao Birang immediately quickened his pace and quickly distanced himself from him.

After leaving the palace and getting on the carriage, he said in a moment, "Return home! Hurry!"

Duke Lan chased after them closely, but he only caught up with them in time to see the rear of the Xiao family's carriage.

"..."

Xiao Birang this guy, is he guarding against thieves?

When these two old ministers left the palace and returned home one after another, the residences of high-ranking officials in the court immediately received the news and began to make various plans in secret.

Minister Yan's mansion even directly ordered the housekeeper to wait in front of the Xiao family's door and pass on a message to General Xiao, asking Minister Yan to come to the mansion in person to visit the next day.

The news of the old Duke spread quickly in the imperial city, causing a stir everywhere.

On the other side, the Yuehui envoys were returning during the day and had already left the imperial city. After a brief stop at the nearby dock for supplies, the transport ship sailed into the Liangzhou Canal.

At midnight there was a sudden commotion on the deck.

Ji Yue was woken up by the disturbance and was filled with rage. The anger she felt from being repeatedly humiliated in the Da Rui Imperial City only made her even more violent.

Taking out the small whip from under the pillow, Ji Yue stormed out of the cabin, "You're making so much noise, are you looking for death?"

"Princess, please forgive me! There is an extra person on our transport ship. We don't know where he came from. We are preparing to interrogate him!" The guard commander bowed and explained.

There was a figure lying at his feet. The light on the boat was not bright, but one could still see that the man was small and thin.

He was wearing a grey cloth, which was what ordinary people in Da Rui wore. His face was delicate and pale, and he looked like a boy of about ten years old.

"But what did you find out?"

"Not yet. This man made no sound no matter how we dragged, kicked or hit him. I guess he is mute. He disturbed the princess' sleep and deserves death! I will get rid of him and throw him into the river!"

"Wait." Ji Yue stopped the guard leader and looked at the young man with a dark light in her eyes. After a moment, she chuckled happily, "A mute with unknown origins... Let's keep him here. He's just the right person to entertain this princess!"

Origin is not important. There is one thing Ji Yue can be sure of, that the mute in front of him is from Dalui.

Just right, I can use him to have fun and vent my anger!

She had sworn that if the people of Da Rui fell into her hands, she would ride them like horses and raise them like dogs!

There were voices and laughter mixed together in his ears, noisy and chaotic. Yan Yuan lay there motionless, his eyes empty and numb.

He didn't know why he was here, nor what he was about to face.

But it doesn't matter.

Live or die.

Worse than dogs.

Imperial city, expedition to the Earl's Mansion.

The light in the study was on all night. Yuan Zhengbo sat in front of the desk in a daze. When the candlelight on the table flickered a few times, he came to his senses and looked out the window.

It will be dawn.

It's almost dawn.

"How's the matter?" he asked the man in black who appeared out of nowhere in front of the desk.

The man in black bowed his head and said, "We have already sent the Second Prince onto the ship... Lord, do you really want to do this?"

"The person has already been sent up, why are you asking this?" Yuanzheng Earl retracted his gaze, his eyes dark, "He is obviously a prince, but he has no desire to fight for it. He only hopes that others will show mercy. What can mercy get? Let him suffer enough, maybe he can change his mind. The emperor has reduced the power of the Earl's Mansion and cut off the branches of the Yao family, forcing me to this point. Everyone thinks that I, Yuanzheng Earl's Mansion, have accepted my fate!"

He closed his eyes, suppressed the grief and hatred in his heart, and then opened his eyes. "My own mother died at the hands of Lan Zhirong. As a son, I should avenge my mother!"

The man in black remained silent and accepted what the expeditionary lord said.

"Have you explained other things?"

"Yes, according to Lord Earl's orders, I have bribed the people on the transport ship and will constantly whisper in the Second Prince's ear to stir up his hatred."

"Let him stay out there for a few years and bide his time. As long as he works hard, I will take care of other things for him."

After saying this, Yuanzhengbo waved his hand, and the man in black disappeared from the study.

Yuanzheng Bo blew out the candle that was about to burn out, stood up and left the study.

When the door was opened, a few rays of gray light from the morning sun shone through the mansion.

The once prosperous Bo Mansion has fallen into decline since the "sudden death" of Concubine Yao.

Like a lifeless dead tree, it cannot survive the long cold winter and eventually rots in the mud and snow.

How could he, the expeditionary officer, accept his fate!

……

Not long after dawn, Xiao Birang took his family to the government office in the capital.

In addition to worshipping ancestors and relatives, another thing to do this time is to re-register my daughter's name.

According to the Dari law, if a person has been missing for more than ten years, the government will erase his or her name from the household register.

He wanted to put his daughter's name back on the Xiao family's household registration.

Tang Jizong personally supervised the handling of the matter. He returned the Xiao family's household registration to the old general respectfully and touched Baixiang's little head kindly when no one was paying attention.

Get some good luck.

"Xiao Xingwei... my daughter's name is back, hahaha!" The old general held the household registration in his hands, feeling extremely happy, and pretended not to see Tang Jizong's little movements. "Wei'er, you should use your real name when you are outside in the future, right?"

Li Sulan... Xiao Xing smiled slightly and nodded, "Okay."

Lin Dashan also smiled, "Xingwei...Xingwei, Xingwei."

"What are you doing?"

"I shouted a few more times and soon I got used to it."

"puff!"

Bai Xiang stared at his parents with his bright eyes, then covered his eyes with his hands after a while, "Father and mother, shame on you!"

It made my parents very embarrassed.

The old general picked up his granddaughter and walked out with a big smile, "Now that we're done, let's go back to Yuxi Village! The boat has been booked, we'll set off today!"

"!!!" Upon hearing this, Tang Jizong didn't care about anything else and quickly sent people to each household to inform the news.

Mr. Xiao is going to take Xiao Fuxing away!
