C16 The Chaos of the Situation

Xie Chengtian glanced at Xie Yuchen and Xie Chaosheng a few times. Sure enough, it was very interesting... Xie Chaosheng, who had always been at ease, would stand up for a little girl. Interesting, but wasn't he the same? For a woman.

Xie Chengtian coughed lightly a few times and said, "Chaosheng is right. This man and woman are not married, but they are not easy to get along with. Chaosheng has known her since she was young, like an older brother. This way, it's more appropriate to be with Chaosheng. "

Xie Yuchen's hands, which were covered by his sleeves, slowly tightened. Xie Chengtian, don't you think it's too much to watch a show? You really don't want him to have anything to do with the Jiang family...

"Chaosheng, why don't you take her around? My beloved concubine is pregnant, so it won't be convenient for her." Xie Chengtian was about to chase her away.

Jiang Xinci wanted to say something, but was stopped by Xie Chengtian.

"Don't worry, Chaosheng is not someone who doesn't know his limits." So she left him behind...

His words seemed soft, but there was an undeniable meaning in them. Jiang Xinci could only accept the order. If she refuted, she might be imprisoned. The person in front of her was the emperor. He could do whatever he wanted. Fortunately, the other party was someone she knew about character.

Xie Chaosheng bowed and left with Jiang Xinman. After walking a distance, Jiang Xinman turned her head and found that Xie Chengtian was still holding Jiang Xinci.

Although they looked lovey-dovey, Jiang Xinman felt that he was threatening her. Xie Chengtian held Jiang Xinci's arm. She didn't use any strength at all. It was more like she was afraid that she would escape.

Xie Chaosheng stopped and waited for Jiang Xinman. Following her gaze, Xie Chaosheng also saw the situation on the other side.

"Xinman, don't make a deal with the Emperor. It's not without reason that he became the winner."

Xie Chaosheng looked at Xie Chengtian and spoke slowly. Out of all his brothers, he was the only one who showed off his abilities and was doted on. He loved to borrow the hands of others to achieve his goals without spending any effort. If it wasn't for his mother protecting him and him being far away from the Imperial City, he probably wouldn't have lived to this age.

Xie Yuchen, it was just an accident, a robber who appeared out of nowhere...

Jiang Xinman felt very stifled when she heard Xie Chaosheng's words... What had he experienced to say such words?

"I know... I just... It's not worth it for Xinci. Although I went to the Magic Pen Pavilion that I missed, I lost more important things."

"Let's go."

Xie Chaosheng recalled his bad experiences in the past. He did not want to recall them anymore, so he called out to Jiang Xinman and left.

On the other side, Xie Yuchen asked Xie Chengtian in an unfriendly tone, "Brother, what do you mean?"

Xie Chengtian replied perfunctorily, "I don't mean anything by it. It's just that... if I let her go with you, the prime minister will probably come looking for trouble with me."

"What does this have to do with the Prime Minister?" Xie Yuchen frowned. Why did the Prime Minister want to get involved in this matter? Wasn't he always only concerned with state affairs? Could it be...?!

The Prime Minister wanted to pave the way for his son, but he was too optimistic!

When Xie Chengtian saw Xie Yuchen's expression of sudden enlightenment, the words he was about to say were dispelled. Fortunately, Xie Yuchen was not too stupid.

The Jiang family was one of the richest merchants in the East District. Their connections and wealth could not be underestimated. Moreover, Jiang Yuexiu had trade dealings with the border region. If it wasn't for the fact that they had been paying tribute to the imperial family, the Jiang family would have had the ability to control the entire country's trade.

Xie Yuchen's thoughts were clear to Xie Chengtian. Who didn't want the throne? If it weren't for the part of military power that the late emperor had given him, he wouldn't have lived until now. He would have died a long time ago!

Xie Yuchen wanted to know Xie Chengtian's plan: "Then who do you think Miss Jiang will agree to?"

Humph! He kicked the ball to him again.

"Who Miss Jiang will agree to depends on her. I won't interfere in the matters of the young."

Xie Chengtian laughed and left with Jiang Xinci. Jiang Xinci could only lower her head and remain silent at the side. She could not speak on this occasion.

Xie Yuchen looked at Xie Chengtian's back as he walked away and cursed him in his heart. Old fox. If it wasn't for your appearance that deceived the late emperor, how could the late emperor change his decree before he died?

And Xie Chaosheng, everything about him was caused by you. He should know everything by now. Even if I don't cause trouble for you, he will come.

Jiang Xinci could see the situation very clearly in the palace. The Jiang family was special to them. These people did not lack power, but they lacked money. Whoever got the Jiang family could break this deadlock...

Xie Chengtian saw that Jiang Xinci had her head lowered and did not speak. He guessed that she was worried about her sister's marriage...

"Beloved concubine?"

"Hmm? Emperor... What's wrong?"

"I called you for a long time, but you didn't respond. Are you worried about your sister's marriage?"

Jiang Xinci lowered her eyes and nodded lightly.

"Then according to what my dear concubine saw, who does your sister like more?"

Jiang Xinci's heart turned cold. Was he testing her?

"I would rather have my sister be with the young master of the prime minister. The two of them have been in love with each other for many years, and they only treat Xie Chaosheng's prince like their elder brother. As for the other prince, he only met him in a hurry, and it's even more impossible. I hope that the Emperor can help my sister and Young Master An..."

Xie Chengtian quickly helped her up.

"What are you doing? It doesn't matter who she likes. It's her own business. What matters is your health."

Jiang Xinci felt even more worried in her heart. It was probably all because of this child that she was able to obtain the favor she had today. The Emperor's feelings and care for her were almost all thanks to him.

It didn't matter who Jiang Xinman liked. Yes, it didn't matter. What mattered was Xie Chengtian's words. The Jiang family didn't have the ability to make the Emperor agree to a marriage.

Xie Chengtian sighed. How could Jiang Xinci be so careless? This child was his, and it was very important.

The marriage of the second young lady of the Jiang family... Sigh... As long as Xie Yuchen didn't get it, it was fine. He could choose the rest.

Although he wanted Xie Chaosheng and Jiang Xinman to be together, Xie Chaosheng was easy to deal with, and there was that kind of thing. Even if he got the help of the Jiang family, he wouldn't be able to do anything. Wasn't there still Xie Yuchen guarding here?

Xie Yuchen, oh, Xie Yuchen, he thought he was smart and had always eliminated the threat of his position, but why didn't he just eliminate the threat for Xie Chengtian? He worked so hard to set up the plan to protect himself. He wondered what Xie Yuchen would think when he found out the truth one day...

But if he let Second Miss Jiang be together with Xie Chaosheng, then the Prime Minister would come and pressure him. There were a lot of politics in the court, and if he was the only one to deal with it, then he wouldn't be able to rest for a year. The Prime Minister only cared about the country and didn't have any partisan disputes. If he didn't handle it well, he would be unhappy and mess up the situation.

Ann Xiangheng, a general, was out all year round, so he might be a good choice? Hmm... Feasible.

Three days later, the imperial order was passed down, ordering Jiang Xinman and Ann Xiangheng to officially get married two years later.
