Reborn Lady's Scheming

Chapter 219 Ask Mrs. Xie for Help

But not long after the founding of the country, the southwestern frontier was often threatened by the Nanman. If the southwest lost the Cui family, it was likely to suffer heavy losses.

On the one hand, the country needs the Cui family, on the other hand, the emperor is afraid of the Cui family!
"Brother, then... how about cousin Wen Xiao's marriage?" Xie Wanqing asked.

"This matter is really tricky, and I'm afraid that Wen Xiao will hate you and me because of it!" Xie Zi'an also looked worried.

When Xie Wanqing heard this, her heart ached. The last thing she wanted was to have a estrangement with the Cui family, and Cui Wenxiao was the one with the most compatible temperament among the Cui family sisters!
Xie Wanqing sighed and said, "Then... is there any way to resolve this matter?"

"Don't let grandma know about this in advance, otherwise she will definitely object, which will only hurt Wen Xiao's heart. Why don't you start with the Prince of Wu'an!" Xie Zi'an said.

Xie Wanqing asked suspiciously: "What should I do?"

"The King of Wu'an County must have tried his best to assist the prince. The Cui family and the prince are now in such a quarrel that it is impossible for him to ask Wen Xiao to marry him. Wen Xiao understands it and will naturally give up!" Xie Zi'an said.

Xie Wanqing shook her head, and said: "Cousin Wen Xiao is a sweetheart, enthusiastic and straightforward, and at the same time she has no scheming, she is afraid that she will not see the true meaning of this, and will instead get into the wrong place, and something will happen then." Come on, I will be even more to blame!"

Xie Zian also fell into a dilemma for a while, so he could only say: "Then wait for the incident with the prince!"

"Alright, it's time to speed up, if we continue to let him have fun, we will be hindered everywhere!" Xie Wanqing gritted her teeth.

Xie Zi'an nodded, and the eyes of the brother and sister were equally firm.

But here, Xie Siru has already got the exact news that Xuanyuan Ming raised a singer outside.

Such news made Xie Siru furious, but Xie Siru did not act rashly, because she still couldn't figure out the origin of this singer!

"Haitang, you have to find out the origin of this singer before the prince returns to Beijing, Yingying... Huh, no matter if she is Yingying or Queque, I can't let her take away the favor of the prince!" Xie Siru Gritting his teeth authentically.

Haitang nodded, and said: "I heard that the crown prince sent people there to protect her, for fear that she would be harmed, empress, you have to think twice, don't act recklessly!"

Xie Siru frowned, and said: "If she doesn't have any background, it's easy to deal with. It's fine to solve it secretly. What are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid that after the crown prince finds out, he will feel resentment toward your empress!" Haitang reminded.

Xie Siru was silent for a moment, and said: "As long as we do it cleanly, the crown prince may not know who did it!"

Haitang thought for a while, and said: "Find out the details of the other party first, but she is a singer, her status is low, and she is not enough to threaten you, empress!"

"Hmph, that's not necessarily the case... The hero doesn't ask where he came from, what is the identity of His Highness the Crown Prince? If he insists on pampering this singer, who knows what will happen in the future?" Xie Siru inherited Liu's temperament, the most jealous and vicious, Naturally, he would not easily let go of this woman who dared to compete with her when she first entered the East Palace!
Haitang said: "Why don't you tell Uncle about this?"

"Uncle? I don't dare to trust uncle easily now. He has his own selfishness, so he probably wouldn't do such a thing for me!" Xie Siru's heart has been chilled since the last time he asked Liu Shangshu for help and was rejected.

But Haitang said: "But you still have to rely on your uncle..."

"Who said that? Don't I have a father? Daddy loves me the most, and because of my mother's affairs, he feels guilty towards me. I decided to go back and tell my father about this!" Of course, Xie Siru still got closer to Xie Chongguang in his heart.

Haitang is from the Liu family and also from the Liu family, so naturally she prefers the Liu family, and when she heard Xie Siru say this, she felt a little hesitant in her heart.

This hesitation was quickly understood by Xie Siru, Xie Siru said: "Hai Tang, you used to follow my mother, how did my mother treat you?"

"Of course the kindness is as heavy as a mountain!" Haitang replied, not knowing why Xie Siru asked her like that.

Xie Siru nodded and said: "But you will always be a girl by my mother's side, even if you help my mother become the prime minister's wife, you are still a girl, right?"

Haitang was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly knelt down, and said: "Your Majesty, a servant is a servant, I dare not think anything wrong!"

Xie Siru helped her up, and said in a gentle voice: "Haitang, you don't have to be afraid, I didn't mean to threaten you, I just want to tell you that if you follow me now, you are closely related to me. If I am favored, you Then you will be able to flourish, and if I become a concubine in the future, you will be more than just a little slave!"

"Being a slave depends on whose slave you are. Haitang, you are a smart person, you should understand what I mean!"

Xie Siru's words hit Haitang's heart hard, and she suddenly realized that although she was a girl of the Liu family, since she followed Xie Siru, she could no longer call herself a servant of the Liu family.

Even though she used to be Liu's confidant, but now she has followed Xie Siru, no matter what purpose Liu Shangshu and Liu put her by Xie Siru's side, now Xie Siru is her only master.

If Xie Siru is honored and favored, she will rise to the top, but if Xie Siru is downcast, she will naturally not get any benefits.

"Your servant understands, Madam... Haitang is willing to swear to die to follow Madam!" Haitang bowed heavily and finally strengthened her belief.

Xie Siru nodded in satisfaction, helped Haitang up from the ground again, patted her hand and said, "I used to have Bihe, Xiaolian, and Luluo by my side, but they are not as smart and capable as you, let alone you understand me." That's why I'm more willing to get close to you, Haitang, I hope you don't let go of my trust, okay?"

Xie Siru's "sincere" confession moved Haitang too.

Haitang immediately said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Haitang is willing to go through fire and water for your Majesty, even if it is a sea of ​​swords and swords, I will accompany you there!"

"Okay, with your words, I will never forget your contribution in the future!" Xie Siru said with a smile.

Xie Siru pulled off her most beloved jade hairpin from her head, and put it on for Haitang. Haitang wanted to decline, but Xie Siru held her down, and said: "Take the one that rewards you, you have to remember, our master and servant , if you can't be prosperous and rich in the future, you will only have a dead end!"

Haitang was even more alarmed when she heard this. The second young lady is no longer the old second young lady. In the short time since entering the East Palace, she has grown rapidly. Without the protection of Mrs. Liu, she is in danger everywhere. In the East Palace, she learned to be alone!
Since then, Haitang has been more determined to help Xie Siru win favor!
Xie Siru found an excuse to return to Xie's house, and first told her grandmother about her predicament, because she knew that Mrs. Xie could only hope that she would be favored in the East Palace in order to bring greater glory to Xie's family, so she was bound to will help myself.

"You mean, the prince is so absurd that he raises a singer outside?" Mrs. Xie was shocked.

"Yes, this matter is related to the reputation of the crown prince. If people know that the crown prince is so absurd and immoral, the courtiers will be dissatisfied, so I ask grandma to make the decision!" Xie Siru raised the matter of the crown prince raising a singer to the level of "personal virtue." I hope to find a reasonable explanation for my jealousy.

After Mrs. Xie heard this, she was also very worried, and said: "The turmoil of retiring has just subsided, and the crown prince will probably attract criticism for doing such a thing!"

"That's right, the granddaughter is also worried about this, so she came to ask grandma to find a way!" Xie Siru said.

Mrs. Xie pondered for a moment and thought for a long time before she said: "The prince is out of Beijing now, and he will not be able to return for at least three or two months, is it?"

"Well, that's right!" Xie Siru said.

Mrs. Xie smiled slightly and said: "Since that's the case, then it's easy to handle. You can go back at ease. Grandma will take care of this for you!"

"Really?" Xie Siru asked in surprise.

Mrs. Xie nodded and said: "I know you are having a hard time in the East Palace, but for the sake of Xie's family and yourself, you have to endure it. In the future, you will surely have inexhaustible glory and wealth!"

"Granddaughter saves, and granddaughter is not doing it for glory and wealth. She just hopes to keep our Xie family safe and prevent father's years of hard work from being wasted!" Xie Siru really understands Mrs. Xie's thoughts deeply, so what she said, Naturally, Mrs. Xie was extremely pleased.

Mrs. Xie nodded, and said: "You can think like this, it is really the blessing of the Xie family. Speaking of it... If your sister can be half as well-behaved and sensible as you, your father and I won't have to be so upset!"

When Xie Siru heard her mentioning Xie Wanqing, she was really upset, but she still said face-saving: "My sister is probably a demon, and she does such foolish things one after another that hurt relatives and enemies, it really hurts my heart!"

"Forget it, don't mention it, she has nothing to do with our Xie family anymore!" Mrs. Xie waved her hand irritably. Xie Wanqing was a good chess game that she had carefully cultivated, but she broke it abruptly, which is really shocking. She is angry and helpless!

Xie Siru persuaded: "Grandma doesn't need to worry about her anymore, now that I have entered the East Palace, I believe that one day, our Xie family will become the most prominent family in the capital!"

"Well, you can go back with peace of mind, I will send someone to settle the singer's matter!" Mrs. Xie said.

Xie Siru naturally left with gratitude, and left this matter to Mrs. Xie, she didn't have to do it herself, even if the prince had doubts in the future, she could evade it, she didn't send someone to do it!
After leaving Xie's house, Xie Siru deliberately took a detour, and the carriage stopped far in front of Yingying's courtyard door. Although the courtyard door was closed, she couldn't see anything, but Xie Siru's heart felt like a needle prick pain.

"Your Majesty, let's go back, why bother me here?" Knowing her mood, Haitang persuaded her a few words.

Xie Siru said: "Hmph, I really want to know what kind of peerless beauty can make His Royal Highness so fascinated!"

"What do you mean?" Haitang asked.

Xie Siru said: "I want to meet her for a while!"

"This is unavoidable, if someone finds out...His Royal Highness will definitely take his anger out on you!" Haitang hastily stopped her, fearing that Xie Siru would do something impulsive and reckless.
