Chapter 31: Five years, rapid changes

Xie Jiajia was thinking about Xie Zhaozhao's sudden change.

Xie Zhaozhao was thinking about solving the problem of summer heat.

The two of them had their own thoughts and were very quiet.

The happiest person is Yu.

No matter how restless those people's eyes are, if you don't pay attention to them, they will be boring.

The more you can't break up with them, the more you seem to care about the things they talk about, and they will only get worse.

Sure enough, the ladies looked at Xie Zhaozhao and the other two people who were so quiet and didn't notice anything, and they all looked away in boredom.

After all, today's birthday party is so grand.

Men naturally come here to communicate with colleagues and make plans for their career.

Women are thinking about marriage and seeing if there are any well-matched unmarried men and women.

Today, there is a gathering of wealth and wealth. Madam Jiangninghou is sitting in a corner, staring at Yu, mother and daughter with very unkind eyes.

She has been feuding with Yu for a long time, and they probably won't be able to get along with each other for the rest of their lives.

Yu stared back at her fearlessly, raised her eyebrows provocatively, and said silently: Bite me if you can!

Marquis Jiangning was trembling with anger, but she didn't do anything, so she could only look away angrily.

Suddenly, a burst of hearty laughter came from the male guest: "Your Majesty, I am late, don't blame me!"

The person who arrived late was Xie Wei.

The eyes of all the female guests here fell on Yu and her daughter, and an idea suddenly occurred to them.

Everyone in the Xie family really knows how to take care of Qiao. The female relatives arrived late, and the head of the family, Duke Liang, also arrived late.

It is inevitable that His Highness the Crown Prince will not be taken seriously.

"Thank you for coming."

Then the prince's rich and majestic voice sounded: "Just in time, take a seat quickly."

Xie Zhaozhao looked down at the tea cup.

Compared to the good-natured face that Crown Princess Wang puts on, this prince is truly tolerant and virtuous, treating capable ministers with courtesy.

He is capable of fighting when mounted and capable of planning when dismounted, and his prestige is extremely high.

There were many founding fathers in the DPRK, but they all followed the lead of the prince.

Such a talented person has a son like Yun Qi, a devil in the world. It is no wonder that he has been suffering from headaches in recent years and the relationship between father and son has been bad.

It's a pity that he died too early in his previous life.

In the previous life, the prince died of a sudden illness, and it took three days to die from the illness, which was really strange.

After his death, Emperor Xuanwu's hair turned gray overnight and he was in mourning, which allowed other ambitious vassal kings to take advantage of him.

The sudden death of the prince was one of the reasons why the Xie family ended up in such a miserable state.

Thinking of this matter, Xie Zhaozhao frowned.

You should remind Yun Qi about this.

There was a faint sound of the prince and Xie Wei exchanging greetings.

When men see more of Xie Wei's current status, they naturally want to please him more.

Xie Wei has been in the court for more than 20 years, and he has a good way of dealing with it. He is also good at pretending to be confused. In a few words, he brought the topic to the prince's inspection of Jiangning.

Naturally, the courtiers praised him repeatedly and claimed that the prince was wise.

Sitting on the throne of the birthday star, His Highness the Crown Prince's eyes were calm and he was not at all overwhelmed by these compliments.

He faced the ministers with a faint smile, his eyes slowly swept over Xie Wei, and he chuckled in his heart, "Old fox."

But then he thought about the entanglement between Yun Qi, Xie Zhaozhao and Chu Nanxuan.

The prince's face darkened slightly and he looked at Yun Qi, who was sitting not far from him.

Yun Qi is wearing a black brocade dress with a vertical collar and sloping shoulder sleeves.

His eyes were half-closed, and his posture was a little relaxed.

He was half-leaning back in the armchair, resting his elbows on the armrests. His calloused index and middle fingers pointed at his forehead, while the other fingers were slightly curled, as if he was thinking about something.

However, this casual and uninhibited sitting posture makes people feel that the edge hidden under his relaxed appearance may be revealed at any time.

The air around him became condensed and cold, causing the officials sitting on the left and right to subconsciously evade to a safe area.In five years, everything has changed rapidly.

This demon king who was chasing after Xie Zhaozhao in a noisy way and doing everything possible to marry her is now like a peerless magic weapon that is about to be unsheathed at any time.

Intimidating.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince narrowed his eyes, slowly looked away, and spoke to the officials beside him.

Ever since Yun Qi came in, he just cupped his hands and sat there.

The father and son, the prince and Yun Qi, did not say a word.

Many people speculated that the prince did not want to reprimand his son on such a good day, so as to save some face for himself and his son.

Everyone also tacitly understood it and restrained their eyes and thoughts.

There were many people talking, but no one's topic guided Yun Qi.

……

Xie Jiajia, who was at the female guest table, said lightly: "Sure enough, being superior to others is different."

"What?" Yu turned around and asked, "Who is superior?"

"I think His Highness the Crown Prince is awesome." Xie Jiajia replied to Yu with a smile.

Yu smiled and said, "That's right."

Xie Zhaozhao's eyes moved, but he understood Xie Jiajia's words.

The prince is the leader of tens of thousands of people, and he himself has both ability and political integrity.

Even if Yun Qi is not good, others would not dare to say anything bad about Yun Qi.

Not to mention in person, there were very few discussions behind the scenes.

But the Xie family is different.

No matter how distinguished Xie Wei is in military affairs, he is still a minister.

Regarding the matter involving Xie Zhaozhao, Yun Qi and Chu Nanxuan, we cannot blame Yun Qi. We can only blame Xie Zhaozhao and Chu Nanxuan for their mistakes.

Chu Nanxuan is also the son of General Chu Pengcheng. Chu Pengcheng saved Emperor Xuanwu's life on the battlefield, so he was very popular with Emperor Xuanwu. He was one of the top young talents in the Holy Capital City.

And Xie Zhaozhao is incompatible with the quiet and gentle ladies of the Holy Capital.

She followed her parents through famous mountains, rivers and lakes.

She doesn't stick to embroidering and drinking tea in her boudoir. She often takes her maids under her command to whip up and run horses, and she is free and wanton.

This kind of maverickness attracted the admiration of young talents in the capital, and also attracted the disgust and disdain of the female relatives in the boudoir.

Women have always liked to chew their tongues.

So all the faults of the three of them fell on Xie Zhaozhao.

In her previous life, her reputation had not improved since she was 15 years old.

In her previous life, she also blamed all of this on Yun Qi.

But now—

Yun Qi was just provoked by Xie Xingchen. She knew who the culprit was and she would have to pay a heavy price!
"what happened to you?"

Xie Jiajia, who was sitting aside, frowned and said, "Suddenly you have a cold face. You don't like to sit with me?"

"No."

Xie Zhaozhao lowered his eyes, and the cold air around him instantly subsided, and sighed: "I just thought about my bad reputation."

Xie Jiajia said "Oh", "Go beat him up and tell him to deal with it!"

Then of course he was talking about Yun Qi.

Xie Zhaozhao shook his head and said nothing.

"What?" Xie Jiajia was curious, "You didn't do this often before, but now you don't dare?"

"Ah."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded, "Can't beat him."

Xie Jiajia raised her eyebrows and looked at her suspiciously, "Have you not been able to beat me before?"

"Yes, but he has grown up in the Western Region in the past two years, and I have become lazy in the capital."
