Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2025

Everything happened too suddenly.

Not only was Wei Pingting not prepared, even Shi Yunqi and Wei Cailing were unable to react for a while.

I feel like a good cabbage in my garden hasn't even grown yet, but it's about to be eaten by a pig?

Wei Pingting blushed and glared at Xiao Jiu in shame and anger, "Who wants to marry you? I'm not even grown up yet!"

Xiao Jiu scratched his head, realizing that this was indeed abrupt. He remembered that when his father forced him to marry, he also shouted "I'm still a child"?

So I quickly made up for it, "I mean, I want to take a seat first..."

Shi Anxia stroked his forehead and said, "If you can't speak, then shut up!"

She was afraid that if she didn't ask for help, the good situation would be ruined by this kid.

......

At night, Wei Pingting returned to her room, washed up, turned off the lights early, and curled up in her quilt.

Mrs. Wei was outside the courtyard when she saw her daughter's room was dark. She wondered in her heart: This child usually reads a storybook before going to bed. Why is she going to bed so early today? Is she not feeling well?

She tiptoed to the door, pushed it with her fingertips, and found that the bolt was still locked.

He raised his hand and knocked, "Pingting? Open the door, why is it still bolted? Are you feeling unwell?"

There was a rustling noise in the room, and the daughter's muffled voice came out from under the quilt, "Mom, I'm going to sleep. There's nothing wrong with me, I'm just tired."

Mother Wei withdrew her hand, stood still for a moment, turned around and went outside the courtyard to call the maid who had accompanied her to the Duke's Mansion today, and asked in a low voice, "What happened to the Second Miss over there today? Why did you come back like this?"

The maid hesitated for a moment and answered in a low voice, "Madam, the Second Miss had a little temper with the Ninth Prince at the Duke's Mansion. She was fine afterwards, but for some reason she became so quiet when she came back that she ignored me."

Mother Wei frowned slightly, "What did His Highness the Ninth Prince say?"

The maid thought for a moment, "Later, the eldest lady and her husband, as well as the princess and the ninth prince, went into the hall with the second lady to talk. I was far away and couldn't hear them."

When Wei's mother heard this, she smiled and felt relieved.

As long as Xia'er is here, everything will be fine.

The next day, Shi Anxia deliberately chose the beginning of the evening hour to visit the Wei residence. This was the time when the government office was closing.

When she arrived at Wei's mansion in a blue silk sedan chair, she saw Wei Zhongshi's official sedan chair just stopped at the corner gate.

The curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, and Wei Zhongshi walked out of the sedan chair, rubbing his brow. He had not changed into his official robe, and there was still a hint of fatigue from the hard work of paperwork between his brows.

"Hello, Uncle Wei." Shi Anxia bowed gracefully, with a faint fragrance floating between her sleeves.

Wei Zhongshi looked up when he heard the voice and saw that it was An Xia. He quickly straightened his clothes and returned the greeting. Finally, he asked, "Princess, are you waiting for me to finish my shift? Is there anything you want to tell me?"

The court has been in turmoil recently, and Shi Anxia represents the position of the emperor. That's why Wei Zhongshi asked this question.

Shi Anxia pursed her lips and smiled, "Uncle Wei, I am sorry to come to your house today because I have something important to discuss with you."

Wei Zhongshi quickly stepped aside and said, "Princess, please come in."

As dusk deepened, the stone lions in front of the Wei Mansion cast long shadows in the setting sun. Two servants holding lanterns hurriedly led the two into the main hall.

When Mrs. Wei saw the princess coming to her house in person, she knew that she must have something important to tell her. She thought of her little daughter's abnormal behavior last night and felt worried.

After some pleasantries, Shi Anxia got down to business and explained in detail the causes and consequences of the secret change of imperial power.
