Chapter 913 We are childhood sweethearts
Seeing that she had calmed down a bit, Jiang Fenghua continued, "So what's the point of Aunt Wang making trouble with Uncle Wang? Do you want to go back to the Northwest to make room for another woman? The more Aunt Wang thinks so, the happier they are. If you leave, they will become even more unscrupulous. Are you willing to accept that?"
Yuezhi likes Xie Kang. It is true that he is handsome. No man in the northwest is as handsome as him. She fell in love with him at first sight. She definitely doesn't want to give Xie Kang to someone else. She is his legally married wife.
Yueshi said, "I will definitely take him back with me."
Jiang Fenghua said, "Shengjing City is Uncle Kang's home. He is a prince of the royal family. Where is Aunt Wang going to take Uncle Kang? The Emperor values family ties very much. I haven't seen Uncle Wang for a long time, so the Emperor asked Uncle Wang to return to the capital. He must be handing over an important task to him. The Emperor also needs Uncle Wang's help in governing the Great Zhou. Shengjing City is so prosperous. Doesn't Aunt Wang want to live in Shengjing City?"
Yuezhi frowned, his eyes full of disdain. "If the royal family really valued Xie Kang, how could they be so cruel as to send him to the northwest to suffer? He was banished to the northwest by your emperor back then."
If we look at the living environment, Northwest China is definitely not as good as Shengjing, but Northwest China is free!
It would be their dream to occupy Shengjing. Living here, they would not have to suffer from the yellow sand or the freezing ice and snow. The weather would be pleasant with spring flowers blooming. Her skin became better after she came here.
Jiang Fenghua had a face like a little white rabbit and a pair of innocent eyes. "Uncle Kang was driven to the northwest by the late emperor. The emperor was not even born at that time. The emperor also wanted to repair his relationship with Uncle Kang!"
Yue Shi scoffed, "Anyway, the Xie family has hurt the prince's heart."
Jiang Fenghua spoke softly, more sincerely than when she coaxed Xie Shang. She began to chatter incessantly, "When I married the Emperor, he was still a prince. He had never met Uncle Kang, and I had even less. Even the Empress Dowager didn't show up at our wedding banquet. Alas! I don't know much about the grudges between the elders, but I did hear the Emperor say that Prince Kang is our elder no matter what. Uncle and Aunt Wang only have two children, Princess Minmin and Prince Yun. The Emperor wants to promote them and train everyone in the Xie family into talents. The grudges and entanglements of the elders have nothing to do with us, the younger generation. Everything is in the past, and the late Emperor has passed away. Uncle Kang also wants to write off the grudge with the late Emperor. Aunt Wang should support him."
Yue Shi thought to herself: So Xie Shang wants to mend his relationship with Xie Kang! But the damage has already been done, and it's not something they can repair just by wanting to.
Yue Shi continued, "When he treated Minmin and Yun'er like that, I was also very angry. He really treated them as family, so how could he humiliate them like this?"
Jiang Fenghua smiled and said, "Aunt Wang really misunderstood. I and Aunt Wang also explained it to you at the time. Prince Yun and Princess Minmin committed capital crimes. If the Emperor doesn't punish them, how can he explain to the people and the world? The Emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The Emperor has no choice but to punish them, and he is in a very difficult position."
The Yuezhi had questioned their son and daughter, and knew that they had captured the official's family and blackmailed them into embezzling the disaster relief money. If this happened to the Yuezhi, Minmin and Yun'er would also be severely punished.
Seeing that she had nothing to say, Jiang Fenghua began to offer advice, "Aunt Wang, why don't you go back to the palace first? I'll go and test that woman's words. Is it true that she and Prince Kang have been in a relationship for over thirty years?"
"She is nothing but a lowly wet nurse." Yue Shi said coldly, "I don't believe Xie Kang really likes her that much. I can't cure her."
How could she let that woman go at this moment?
Jiang Fenghua sighed, "Aunt Wang, don't underestimate a wet nurse. As long as a man likes her, Aunt Wang really can't do anything to her. A merchant's daughter can also win the emperor's heart, and I can't do anything to her. If I dare to hurt that merchant's daughter, the emperor will definitely be alienated from me when he finds out. It's not worth it to hurt the relationship between me and the emperor for a lowly woman."
Yue Zhi asked, "What would the Queen do if something like this happened?"
Jiang Fenghua was full of helplessness. "Since the emperor likes her, I naturally have to be magnanimous and marry her into the palace and keep her under my nose for safety. It's easy to get rid of a merchant's daughter, but there's no guarantee that another woman will come to seduce the emperor. I don't want to anger the emperor, so I just follow his wishes. If other women want to get close to the emperor, I can't stop them! A woman who marries into the royal family must not only learn how to be a queen, but also how to please her husband."
Yuezhi had never suffered such injustice. She was the daughter of the Northwest natives, and others acted according to her mood. Why should she have to care about others' moods?
She said, "Life is so hard for you women in the Great Zhou! Xie Kang wouldn't dare treat me like this. He is supported by us Yue Clan. Without us Yue Clan, he wouldn't be where he is today."
The Yuezhi still have some sense of superiority and arrogance, and it is not without reason that Xie Kang prefers the gentle Chang Mingxiu.
After arriving in Shengjing, she discovered that the men of the Great Zhou would marry many women into their homes, and the women would only fight with each other and become jealous, making the harem a mess.
Princess Kang still listened to the advice. When she sat calmly in front of Chang Mingxiu, she raised her eyes very high and said in a deep voice, "How long have you known the prince?"
Chang Mingxiu was the concubine of the previous emperor. In terms of status, she should have been the Princess Kang who was receiving instructions from her. But now she has become Xie Kang's concubine, and her status is much lower.
Chang Mingxiu's arrogance in the palace disappeared in an instant. She glanced at Xie Kang. According to Xie Kang's instructions, she had to be humble in front of Princess Kang.
Xie Kang winked at her, and Chang Mingxiu said, "We are childhood sweethearts. We have known each other since we were young."
She didn't want to suffer this kind of humiliation.
When these words were spoken, Jiang Fenghua was dumbfounded. How could Chang Mingxiu have the nerve to say such a thing?
Yuezhi's face turned green with anger.
No one present heard a word Chang Mingxiu said because they didn't want to listen.
Chang Mingxiu was still chattering about his past with Xie Kang.
She seemed unaware that no one present wanted to hear her talk about how much she loved Xie Kang and how deeply they were connected.
Xie Yang felt ashamed, and he suddenly smashed a wine glass to the ground. The glass turned over, and the movement was not loud, but it attracted everyone's attention.
