Chapter 178: Chapter 178-Unpredictable Waves

Translator: 549690339

Everyone knew that Yu Heng doted on Imperial Concubine Liu, and his love for her had not diminished for many years.

However, everyone knew that there were as many concubines as dogs in the harem. Even when Imperial Concubine Liu was being favored, Emperor Yu Heng did not stop having people by his side. It was just that Imperial Concubine Liu had been favored for a longer period of time.

Wei Desheng had been by the Emperor’s side for so many years and had not noticed it. He reckoned that even the Emperor himself did not know about it.

In the end, when she died, all sorts of emotions surged up. To put it bluntly, it was worse than the death of her own mother. Everyone could tell that Emperor Yu Heng was truly sad. In just half a month, he had already become so thin that he was almost a dry man. Originally, the Emperor loved to smile, but there were already a bunch of wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. Now that he had lost weight, his face was haggard, and his wrinkles had increased. It was as if he had aged three or four years.

Emperor Yu Heng wasn’t stupid, but sometimes, he really couldn’t think about the things in front of him. He understood when Wei Desheng reminded him.

He told Noble Consort Liu that he would come back tonight and then went to Taiji Palace.

This casual sentence made Wei Desheng’s hair stand on end.

It felt like the Emperor was going crazy and was talking to Noble Consort Liu like she was a living person.

But he knew that Noble Consort Liu was dead, and that he and the Empress had not fallen out on the surface, but in private, who in the Palace did not know that the relationship between the Emperor and Empress was as cold as ice?

The shopkeeper of the cake shop had already been executed, and all the waiters had been killed. The Prince of Huaiyang found out that it was manslaughter. The shopkeeper had recently contracted some strange disease, and his skin was gradually festering. He heard that he needed to use arsenium to treat it, so he bought some from his brother-in-law’s pharmacy. Who knew that the waiter would mix it with the flour. As a result, the Prince of Huaiyang captured the person and news of him being poisoned kept coming.

It was a cake shop that had only opened half a year ago. Jiankang City was very popular, and a batch of cakes could be sold out in less than fifteen minutes.

Some families of six or seven people who bought those pancakes that morning died overnight. It was calculated that more than 20 people had died because of the poisoned pancakes. Some of the lucky ones bought the cake but didn’t have time to eat it. When they heard about this, they sold their property and donated it to the temple to become monks.

No matter how one looked at it, this was an accident.

Everyone thought so, but Emperor Yu Heng’s heart was still twisted. There were always conspiracy theories, and he suspected that the Empress was behind it.

He had a falling out with Empress Wang, reprimanded the Crown Prince for not being sad enough when Noble Consort Liu died, and blamed the King of Xin ‘an for not changing his ways and not listening to his words.

In any case, the Emperor had already blamed those who could not be blamed. Only Princess Xuancheng could still come to him. When the father and daughter met, they hugged each other and cried.

Wei Desheng looked on coldly. If Emperor Yu Heng continued to act, he would probably be deserted by everyone.

However, the strange thing was that Emperor Yu Heng could still handle the government affairs of the imperial court normally, but other than these, he was abnormal. He would either go to the Eternal Harmony Palace to chat with Noble Consort Liu; Or they would get themselves drunk. Or she would get drunk and chat with Concubine Liu…

When Emperor Yu Heng arrived at Taiji Palace, his eyes burned when he saw Xie Xian.

He remembered that he had talked to Noble Consort Liu about Xie Xian a few days ago. Although he and Xiao Baoxin were not considered heroes who had overcome the barrier of beauty, they were still considered talented scholars and beautiful women. He wondered how beautiful their children would be.

The Imperial Consort’s intention was to marry into the Xiao family. From Xiao Baoxin to Xiao Baoshu, they had their eyes on the Xiao family.

He understood that he wanted to find someone to rely on for his son.

After the Xiao family and the Xie family were married, the imperial concubine’s heart was not much worse than the Xiao family.

Emperor Yu Heng felt his heart ache. He might as well have agreed to her request at that time, so that she wouldn’t die in peace.

“Emperor, my condolences.” Xie Xian’s heart tightened. The Emperor’s shoulders trembled, the corners of his eyes were moist, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He better not cry in front of him again. After all, he was the ruler of a country and was even older than him by a generation. He had never seen this before.

Without further ado, he copied the poem he had written on the road onto a piece of paper. At this moment, he took it out from the sleeves of his wide robe and presented it.

.. I look up to Haotian and don’t want to report, and 1 resent those who are arrogant and arrogant. In ignorance and kindness, in solitude and happiness Emperor Yu Heng couldn’t continue reading until this point. It was as if he had taken a pen and dug it out of his heart. He actually began to cry in front of Xie Xian, tears flowing down his face.

Xie Xian wished that he could find a hole in the ground and hide in it. Even if he was not an emperor, he was still a generation older than him. He had never seen an elder lose his composure like this before. Even when his father had passed away, his mother had been heartbroken, but she had never lost her composure in front of him.

He gave Wei Desheng a look, turned around, and left.

Xie Xian pretended not to see Wei Desheng’s resentful gaze, which was like that of an abandoned woman, and closed the door behind him. Emperor Yu Heng’s cries became even louder.

Xie Xian sighed. He did not view Emperor Yu Heng as someone who was not involved, but he had never thought that Emperor Yu Heng would have such deep feelings for Noble Consort Liu. How heartbroken would an emperor be to cry in front of his courtiers and attendants without regard for his dignity?

When the emperor was angry, millions of people died. As for Tian Zi’s Heart Pain, its power was not much weaker than his anger.

And the queen husband and wife separation, vowed to break up with; And prince father and son discord, resentment; Even Xin ‘an King, Emperor Yu Heng, was probably resentful. Xin’ an King had asked to see Eternal He Palace several times, but he was blocked outside by the Emperor.

The ministers who had been jumping up and down a while ago had all hung up their war cards and stopped quite a bit.

It seemed that the entire political balance had been disrupted because of the death of Imperial ConConcubine Liu.

Xie Xian could clearly see that Emperor Yu Heng had brought the entire court into a state of chaos and turmoil.

###

Xie Xian did not go to see Xiao Baoxin, even though his heart had already flown to her. His entire heart was filled with her, and he desperately wanted to see her.

Perhaps she should tell her that he was not that resistant to her.

Perhaps she should tell him the truth about his feelings for her.

However, now that he had returned to Jiankang, he did not know how many pairs of eyes were watching him from behind. In this troubled autumn, he had to be careful. He could be accused and impeached, but he could not tire Xiao Baoxin out.

But he really missed her.

Xie Xian didn’t even lift the curtain on the car back to the Xie residence. He discovered that ever since he confirmed his feelings, he was even more unable to control his heart.

Long before Xie Xian entered the palace to report, Qing Feng had already returned to the Xie residence to report his safety to Mother Xie. When Xie Xian returned to the Xie residence from the palace, the residence had already made thorough preparations. Mother Xie instructed Xie Xian not to go see her first when he returned to the residence, and let him bathe and change his clothes before having dinner with her.

When Xie Xian arrived, Chancellor Xie was walking out with a gloomy expression. It was obvious that he was chased out by Mother Xie.

“Third Uncle.” Xie Xian stepped forward to greet him.

Chancellor Xie raised his eyelids, he wanted to say something but hesitated before lowering his voice,”

“You just came back from the palace and spoke to the emperor? Do you know what the emperor means? The people in the court were in a state of panic. This was the third time in ten days that the Crown Prince had been publicly reprimanded by the Emperor. Could it be that the emperor…You want to change the Crown Prince?”

The poem written by Xie Xian in the article was taken from Xie Zhuang’s “Song Xiaowu Xuan Guifei Lei” in the Northern and Southern Dynasties..
