Chapter 48: Not Good

Translator: 549690339

After being entangled with Yang Shao for more than ten years, Xiao Jing ‘ai could see the determination in his eyes.

He was fully focused, and his eyes only had what he wanted.

The situation that she didn’t want to see the most happened. Their first encounter was so ridiculous, but Yang Shao still fell in love with Xiao Baoxin at first sight.

Xiao Jing ‘ai quickly stepped forward and called out,”Sister, wait for me.””

She could vaguely hear Pan Shuo ‘er’s furious voice behind her.”

“As expected of the emperor who praised Lady Xiao as a ‘tiger father, no dog daughter.’ She’s definitely different from those nagging and bashful little girls! She’s the tiger daughter of the family of generals!”

Was this a compliment or a curse?

Xiao Baoshu was unhappy.” Brother Pan, you’ll have to rush to talk to my sister in the future. If others see you, it won’t be nice. It’ll ruin my sister’s reputation.””

If it was in the past, he wouldn’t have dared to speak to Pan Shuo like this.

After all, he was the assistant minister of the Yellow Family, the emperor’s close minister, and he was much older than him. However, things were different now. Pan Shuo’s official position had been stripped by the Emperor. His new sworn brother was a third-grade general, a close minister of the Emperor. He wasn’t afraid of his adopted brother.

Xiao Baoshu did not rely on his father. After all, there was a difference in seniority. Yang Shao was different. He was his adopted brother, of the same generation!

“You little brat, what do you know? I’m praising your sister.”Pan Shuo was furious. Besides, what reputation did his sister have? If he didn’t talk to her, would her reputation be good?

“That won’t do!” Xiao Baoshu did not give in.

Yang Shao laughed.” Brother Pan, what Baoshu said makes sense. The mouths of these young ladies…We are men, and we still care about the opinions of others and cherish our reputation, let alone young ladies.”

Pan Shuo snorted. You people…I was just admiring it, understand?”

As he spoke, his eyes slanted to Xie Xian, wanting to find a sense of recognition from him.

Who knew that Xie Xian would laugh and say,” A straight body is indeed not afraid of a slanted shadow. However, one, two, or three people all say that the shadow is slanted. Everyone’s mouth is like gold. If there are many people who say it, there will always be people who believe it, or are willing to believe it.”

“Moreover, if Ling Zheng heard the rumors and misunderstood, that would be even worse.”

Everything else was nonsense. When he heard Xie Xian mention his wife, Pan Shuo finally stopped.

Yang Shao and Xiao Baoshu looked at each other and smiled. After all, it was Xie Xian who knew what Pan Shuo was afraid of.

After chatting, the four of them strolled to the main hall to pay their respects to Old Madam Xie. The atmosphere in the room was lively, and there were not as many people as in previous years. Those who could come to gather were all people with connections and affection. A few women surrounded Old Xie Furcn, and the atmosphere made them excited. On the contrary, Xie Xian’s mother, Madam Yuan, was pushed to the side. She only had a faint smile on her face when she saw Xie Xian enter.

Yuan Jiuniang, who had rushed in angrily to complain, sat quietly beside Lady Cai. Her nose was red, and she forced a smile on her apple-like face.

Pan Shuo had never visited the Xie residence before, but he was able to coax Old Madam Xie to the point that she couldn’t see her teeth. He was so happy that she almost lost her breath. When Pan Shuo saw that Old Madam Xie had no intention of looking down on him like the other aristocratic families, he worked even harder. The entire house listened to him play alone. Although the women despised him, they couldn’t help but laugh at him.

Yang Shao was much quieter. After delivering the congratulatory gifts to Old Xie Furen, he sat at the lower seat. It was completely the etiquette of a junior.

He and Xie Xian weren’t close and hadn’t even spoken to each other, but Pan Shuo was someone who came to be close. Although he had been dismissed by the Emperor, he still came to the Palace every two or three days.

After a few times, he had gotten to know Yang Shao. Yang Shao had grown up in the marketplace since he was young and had seen a lot of the world by King Jiang Xia’s side. He had friends from all walks of life.

Pan Shuo was carefree, but he wasn’t bad. The two hit it off and took each other as conficonfidants after a drink.

This time, it was Pan Shuo who had urged him to come to the Xie residence to pay his birthday visit. Yang Shao had heard many rumors about this young master of the Xie family when he was by Prince Jiang Xia’s side. Since he was fortunate enough to be acquainted with him, he naturally would not fall behind.

He was not as good at talking as Pan Shuo. He had a sweet mouth that was trained in the Empress Dowager’s palace. He was originally sitting quietly, but Pan Shuo talked about him with great fanfare. He publicized the battle between him and the three generals. It was so brilliant that Yang Shao even suspected that he had fought a fake battle.

Xiao Baoshu single-handedly challenged the young masters of the aristocratic families. The aristocratic families suffered heavy losses. Some were beaten, some were dismissed. Only one person benefited from this matter, and that was Yang Shao. How could the aristocratic families not be shocked?

Yang Shao was the one who helped the Xiao siblings fight. The emperor only promoted him, which meant that he was obviously biased towards the Xiao family.

Although they were all well aware of it, the Emperor had slapped the face of a noble family without hiding it after conferring the title of a commoner who had beaten up the young master of a noble family.

The aristocratic families did not have a good impression of Yang Shao.

Thanks to Pan Shuo, Yang Shao instantly became the center of attention in the room, especially Yuan Jiuniang, whose eyes were so bright that Yang Zhuo almost saw a hole in them.

Yang Shao was listening to Pan Shuo’s flattery with a heated face. Suddenly, someone outside sent an imperial edict, which ended his torment.

“.. He is conscientious and conscientious, and I commend him for his kindness. I hereby grant you the title of casual rider’s constant attendant.”

The one who announced the decree was Wei Desheng, who was beside Emperor Yu Heng. It was enough to show how much the Emperor valued Xie Xian.

The moment the imperial edict was issued, everyone in the room was shocked. They were just thinking that the Emperor promoting Yang Shao to an official position was enough to slap the faces of the aristocratic families. Who knew that there would be even more slaps to the face behind—

What kind of official was a casual attendant?

Third Grade, the upgraded version of the Yellow Sect Assistant Minister!

Was the so-called victory of the aristocratic families of love actually a ladder that the emperor used to promote others?

This face…The madams of the aristocratic families who were kneeling on the ground and listening to the imperial edict were all flustered for their husbands. They were almost played by the Emperor!

Back then, the Emperor had forced the Emperor to remove Xie Xian’s official position. The aristocratic families had won, and they were so happy that they had held banquets to celebrate. In the end, in less than half a month, before the banquet was over, the delivery room had sent good news-they had been promoted!

.. The madams of the aristocratic families had mixed feelings.

Xie Xian accepted the decree without being shocked by the favor or disgrace, but Old Xie Furen was extremely excited.

What kind of concept was a third rank official? His son had died in the service of a third rank official for his entire life, and his grandson had already reached the height of his father’s entire life at the age of twenty!

He thanked Wei Desheng personally and handed over a huge red packet. Wei Desheng accepted it with a smile and left after saying a few words of congratulations to the old lady on her birthday. A few days ago, the reward from the Palace for Old Lady Xie’s birthday came down, and it was not the same as his.

“Congratulations, Brother Xie. I knew the emperor wouldn’t dismiss you. You’re so talented, and sooner or later, he’ll use you again.”Pan Shuo’s face flushed red, as if he had just been promoted.

“As the saying goes, being promoted, getting rich, and getting married arc the three great pleasures of life. You have the first two, so there’s only one important thing left!”

Madam Xie clapped her hands and smiled.” That’s right. Xuanhui is already twenty years old. Shouldn’t he get married and start a family?””

Xie Xian had a bad feeling. Immediately after, all the madams in the room looked at him in unison, their eyes shining. A layer of white sweat immediately stood on his back..
