Chapter 227: Striving for favor, trouble lies ahead
When the imperial guards came in the Xiao Wangfu, many people saw it. Many of these people crouch on the ground to see what was happening.
But as a result, later on, they saw... ...
“Xiao, Xiao Wangye?” There were few people couldn’t calm down, when they saw Xiao Tianyao came out. Some people even fell to the ground in shock.
And again, a person who just calmed down himself was frightened: “Xiao Wangye’s legs were cured?”
“Is this real? The imperial guards came to invite Xiao Wangye into the palace, now that his legs were cured?” Some people who were hiding in the corner, near outside the Xiao Wangfu said. They couldn’t believe in the scene they just saw. Even if the facts were already in front of them.
“Hurry, let’s go and tell this news to the old master. Xiao Wangye’s legs are really cured.” There were really some well-informed people, but when they received the gush of wind, they didn’t believe in it at once. So to be sure, these people arranged some spies to watch over the Xiao Wangfu.
historical
This move really frightened many groups of people.
The news came out one after another. Many pigeons fly outside the capital. All of them fluttered and flew in the sky. But, they didn’t go too far. Because they were killed one by one.
“One, two... ... ten pigeons. This one is a roasted pigeon, steamed pigeon, braised pigeon... How many days do I need before I could eat them all?” On a tree, a youngster with a fat drum like face looked sadly at the lined up pigeons.
It’s too much, I can’t finish it!
“Little Chichi, when are you coming back? I’m really bored killing the pigeons here.”
*Pa-*
The youngster pulled the string of his slingshot once again and shot the pigeon.
This youngster named Tang Tang was the younger brother of the first rank assassin, Jing Chi. Tang Tang has red lips and white teeth. He looked like a 16 or 17-year-old boy, but he was actually 25 years old. He only looked soft and tender. And of course, his IQ was comparable to his appearance. So, Jing Chi arranged him to this ‘very important’ task called pigeons killing.
The moment Xiao Tianyao walked out from the Xiao Wangfu, the news that the God of War can now walk with his legs spread quietly throughout the capital. All the capable people now learned that Xiao Tianyao can walk.
Meng Family was very happy when they heard the news: “Fortunately, my son, your legs got hurt. Otherwise, if you were on the battlefield this time. And this news spread, you will encounter more unnecessary trouble.”
“It is because mother was considerate and thoughtful.” Meng Shi convinced Meng Laofuren.
Cui Family was also very happy, the Cui Family Master and second son shared their thoughts: “Father’s eyes are outstanding, this son can’t even compare enough.”
Cui Family Master said in modesty: “No, no, it’s not that I have outstanding eyes. It’s because of our family’s ancestral teachings. Our Cui Family never participated in power struggles. So, no matter who wins or lose. No matter who dominated or fall. Our family never fall. When our family was not despised by any side, we can continue to develop.”
“This son will remember grandfather’s teaching.” Cui Erzhu busily gets up and cupped his hands.
Some people were happy, but some people were not. Naturally, those unhappy people were, Left Prime Minister Lin Xiang and Right Prime Minister You. Both of them instigated against Xiao Tianyao at that time. If Xiao Tianyao takes revenge, they can’t hide.
Xiao Wangye, this person, if he wants to take revenge, he doesn’t beat around the bush. He will directly slap or clean up their face. Just like how cleaned up the Tiancang Pavilion.
Lin Furen and Lin Wanting were even more regretful. Lin Furen regretting miscalculating things. She even offended her brothers just to marry off Lin Chujiu to Xiao Wangfu.
No need to mention about Lin Wanting. She fell in love with the crippled Xiao Tianyao, so what more now that he could walk. How can she not regret it?
Originally, because she took the initiative to enter Xiao Wangfu, she provoked Lin Furen’s anger. She was punished, so she stayed honestly inside the house. But now, she was very dissatisfied with her mother: “Why? Why didn’t you let me marry Xiao Wangye?”
“Mother, this is all your fault, you ruined my future.”
“I hate you, I hate you...”
Lin Furen was hit hard with her daughter words, and she almost fainted.
This was her daughter, her daughter that she took good care for 15 years!
No need to mention other families. Because even the palace people fly like a chicken and bark like a dog.
When the Empress heard that Third Prince Xiao Zian was in danger, and Divine Doctor Mo was absent from the palace. The situation becomes urgent. As a mother of the country, she should come and visit. But in order to express her concerned and care to the third prince more, she took the Crown Prince and the seventh prince with her.
Originally, the Empress, the Crown Prince and the Seventh Prince were so shocked when they heard the unbelievable news that Lin Chujiu will cure Xiao Zian. But now, they even heard that Xiao Wangye will accompany her in the palace. The mother and sons face was naturally full of shocked.
In the end, the Crown Prince couldn’t absorb the news, he asks: “Imperial Uncle’s legs were cured?”
The Crown Prince didn’t receive any news about Xiao Tianyao before. But it seems, the Empress and the Seventh Prince were aware. Because they were less shocked than him.
Even after his words fell, the imperial hall stayed silent. No one answered his question. The Crown Prince felt embarrassed, but he stood silently in the same place. Only the Seventh Prince bother to show care to him: “Imperial Brother, if Imperial Uncle’s legs were not good, can he enter the palace?”
“Little Seven is right.” The Crown Prince said to escape his embarrassing situation.
But, when his words just fell, he heard the emperor said: “Your Imperial Uncle’s legs were cured by his Wangfei.”
Everyone can’t understand what the emperor was saying. But once they heard it, the Empress, the Seventh Prince, particularly the Crown Prince was obviously shocked: “Lin Chujiu? How could she... ...” Words with full of disdain come out, one after another from his mouth.
The Seventh Prince was also shocked, but he didn’t show it on the surface of his face. Because he was still young. However, right after the Crown Prince finished his words, he kneels on the floor and said: “Imperial Father, please forgive Imperial Brother’s nasty words. Imperial brother didn’t mean to call Imperial Aunt’s name directly.”
When the Crown Prince heard this, his face became pale and he busily kneels down for his crime.
“Get up, zhen knows you have a clean heart.” The Emperor generously forgave the Crown Prince. In just one glance, it could be seen that the Emperor loves and value him. But, even with his little brain, he can be a bit smarter. He knows that he doesn’t really exist in his father’s eyes.
The Empress lowered her eyes to cover her bitterness. The Emperor could not only see the Crown Prince but also rejected her little seven.
The Seventh Prince knew that the Emperor didn’t like him, but he doesn’t care. So, after he stood up, he said: “Imperial Father, Imperial Aunt can heal Imperial Uncle’s legs. She’ll definitely be able to cure third brother’s legs. Imperial Father doesn’t need to worry about anything, Third Brother will definitely get better.”
In order to prove his words, the Seventh Prince said those words with a serious face and his small hands were clenched into a fist. He looked like trying to cheer the Emperor.
The Emperor’s heart soften. He waved his hand toward the Seventh Prince and lovingly said: “Little Seven, come closer to Imperial Father.”
This was a big favor from heaven!
At this moment, although she looked calm like the Empress. Imperial Concubine Zhou was gritting her white teeth. The Crown Prince was also bitterly looking at the Seventh Prince. Were they being used by the Seventh Prince?
