My Ferocious Tigress Wife

Chapter 204 - 204: Catching Shadows



The only thing that was confusing was that although Tingwei Xi was talented and knowledgeable, he was really ugly. He looked better than when he was young. He married a virtuous wife, but the children of the Xi family all looked like Tingwei Xi…

This was also the reason why Imperial Concubine Liu had been poking around in the circle of the Shi family and skipped over the Xi family when she was born.

Emperor Yuheng still remembered that Imperial Consort Liu had said in his arms with a look of disdain,” The Xi family’s daughter is really nothing special. You’ve clearly seen this person before, but you look away in a blink of an eye. When you turn back, you won’t be able to recognize her.”

If they wore the same clothes, one would not be able to tell which was the palace maid and which was her.

The only one in the Xi family who could be considered elegant was too tall. He was even taller than the Xin ‘an Prince and was almost two years older than him.

Noble Consort Liu was fussy, weighing, and conflicted. In the end, she immediately decided on the Eldest Princess’s granddaughter, Xu Liuniang. Who knew that Princess Anji would do all kinds of tricks, and Eldest Lady Xiao would be unharmed. This made the Empress Dowager and Noble ConConsort Liu have a lot of complaints about the Eldest Princess. The marriage was left unsettled.

However, the present was different from the past. Back then, Emperor Yu Heng had not made up his mind to change the Crown Prince, so the Princess Consort could just call him the head.

What he needed now was not just to find a prestigious family to put on a show. Little Six needed the support of a powerful family.

Those who achieved great things did not care about trifles. Little Six could not stand it anymore. At most, he would add more beauties in the future. The support of the Xi family was the most important.

Thus, Emperor Epsilon gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and sent people to inquire about the Xi family’s young lady.

In less than half a day, the news he received made Emperor Yu Heng grit his teeth so hard that they almost shattered.

Even the Third Aunt of the Xi Family, who was not even as beautiful as the palace maid, was engaged to the Sixth Prince of the Wang Family. The tall Fifth Aunt of the Xi family was even more prepared to get married. She would get married as soon as the first lunar month was over. She would get married a month earlier than Xie Xian. She was so anxious that her butt was on fire.

His imperial consort had died not long ago, but it did not stop these aristocratic families from marrying their daughters! Each family was more lively than the other, and the Xi family was even more lively.

He fell.

After a lot of pushing and pulling, the one closest to the Xin ‘an King was nine and a half years old. The little Xin’ an King was four years old, still wet behind the ears, and his teeth had yet to be replaced. There was a leak in the middle.

Emperor Yu Heng’s first reaction was whether Xie Xian knew or not.

If he knew the inside story, it was obvious that he did not want to offend anyone. He had given the idea, but he could not carry it out. No matter how crazy he was to help his son, he could not afford to wait for an underage girl.

But when he thought about it again, he couldn’t blame Xie Xian. After all, he was a Langjun, and it was normal for him to be careless. He would always stare at the age of the young lady in other people’s residence and when she would get married. That was a hooligan.

It was obvious that he had not been blinded by anger.

The Xi family had no chance, but Emperor Yu Heng still favored the Sixth Lady of the Xu family the most.

It’s not that she’s so outstanding that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so famous that she’s so far away.

The Eldest Princess was 73 years old and was the eldest daughter of Emperor Taizu. She had always played an important role in the royal family, including among the courtiers and the various aristocratic families, as well as the poor families.

The Minister of Revenue, Xu Yaozu, was the eldest princess ‘second son and held real power.

It was just that Princess Xuancheng’s actions were inappropriate and the Empress Dowager was angry because of it. In the end, it was all a dispute of personal feelings. In Emperor Yu Heng’s opinion, other than losing Xuan City’s reputation, the main responsibility was still Princess Xuan City. It was understandable that the Eldest Princess did not want to make a big fuss at the birthday banquet. It wasn’t that she had maliciously wronged Princess Xuancheng, and before this, the Eldest Princess had always been close to the children of Imperial Consort Liu.

Since the Xi family had failed, Emperor Epsilon turned to the Xu family.

The Eldest Princess had lived for more than seventy years and was used to the wind and rain. With a glance, she knew what Emperor Yu Heng was up to. At that time, she was stunned and did not respond.

“The Crown Prince is the foundation of the country. Emperor, our Old Song family…It’s not like you don’t know that they love to kill each other.”

“Let’s not talk about how much blood you shed in the upper position, even Emperor Xian De had always been suspicious of Peng Cheng Wang. Even so, he was demoted to a commoner early on. Later, he died of illness in Ancheng County…However, who could say for sure if he died of illness or not?”

Emperor Yu Heng only listened to the Eldest Princess and did not interrupt her.

He knew that even if these words were not said, they would still be in the Eldest Princess ‘heart, in the hearts of all the officials. However, no one told him, and no one dared to say it.

“If the Crown Prince were to ascend the throne, Little Six might still have a chance of survival. However, if Little Six ascended the throne, the Crown Prince would be in an awkward position. Moreover, he has the Langya Wang family behind him. Do you think he would let the Crown Prince off and give him a way out?”

Emperor Yu Heng was speechless for a moment.

“Aunt, do you think the Empress was the one who killed Madam Liu?”

Without waiting for the Eldest Princess to speak, he continued. He did not want to hear the Eldest Princess’s answer.

“After burying Lady Liu, the Prince of Huaiyang went to the Jiaofang Palace. Three days later, the Empress summoned the Crown Prince and had a fierce argument. Three days later, it was said that a guard beside the Crown Prince drank too much and drowned in the river.”

Did the Emperor mean that the one who killed him was the Crown Prince?

The Eldest Princess found it hard to believe. No matter what, he was just a teenager. She would believe it if Empress Wang did it, but the Crown Prince… “These are all groundless accusations. Do you have evidence?”

“It’s normal for one or two people to die in the residence. If you ask me about the residence, I don’t know when someone will die. As for the Prince of Huaiyang going to see the Empress, they are his uncles and sisters-in-law. They are not comparable to those concubines in your harem. It’s not like they haven’t seen them before.”

Emperor Yu Heng indeed had no evidence. If there was, did he think he was a bun?

“The damn ones are all dead. It’s not that I haven’t sent people to investigate, but… He died too cleanly. It’s also my fault. In a fit of anger, 1 killed everyone…”

“I only told Aunt about this. I didn’t tell anyone else.”

The Eldest Princess Princess let out a long sigh of relief. With Emperor Yu Heng’s interference, she couldn’t bear to look at the Crown Prince’s face.

“Since it’s just groundless accusations, don’t treat it as a real letter.”After a pause, she waved her hand and lost interest. “Forget it. I’m old and can’t argue with you anymore. I won’t get involved in the marriage of my children.”

The Eldest Princess had said that the family did not care.

Emperor Yu Heng didn’t feel like he had been slapped in the face and went to look for Minister Liu. Minister Liu was loyal and patriotic, so he naturally did not disagree. Originally, this marriage was just about to be completed, but it was ruined by Princess Anji. Not only did Minister Liu secretly hate her, but even Xu Liu Niangzi secretly promised Xin ‘an Prince. She secretly cried a few times.

The two of them hit it off, and the marriage between Xin ‘an King and Xu Liuniang was officially set..
