Chapter 466 The abandoned wife who always accompanies Qingdeng (29)

Yan Heng rarely fell silent.

Xu Jingxiu's expression of joy clearly revealed his expectations for the new baby.

With a fetus still in his belly and a daughter who was already six years old, he would rather bear the sin of offending the emperor and hope that Yan Heng would give the so-called honor to the child who was not yet born.

This shows what kind of life Xu Qingshu lived in the Xu family.

After Xu Jingxiu finished speaking, he found that Yan Heng had not spoken for a long time and his expression gradually changed.

He cupped his hands and said, "I have offended you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

There was no emotion or anger in Yan Heng's tone: "Your daughter's position as the village head has been given by my imperial edict, and it cannot be taken back. If you want to give this honor to your other child, you must first figure it out. It’s a strategy that has the best of both worlds.”

Xu Jingxiu hardly stumbled and quickly stated his plan: "Your Majesty, you don't know that my daughter is docile on the surface, but is actually extremely rebellious. She always makes the old lady angry at home. If you are willing to give me this grace, then it would be better Destroy her position as village head, and wait until my child is born in a few months before issuing an order."

After finishing speaking, Xu Jingxiu seemed to realize that his request was a bit excessive, and he knelt down and stopped talking.

But apparently that's what he thought. ?.?????.???

Yan Heng was born in the palace and was an unpopular prince. He knew very well how much ups and downs an unpopular child had to go through growing up.

When Xu Jingxiu joined the team, he chose the right person and followed him. Yan Heng found that this person's mind was a little twisted, but he didn't take it to heart.

He knows people well and makes good use of them. As long as Xu Jingxiu can achieve his goals, Yan Heng will not ask him to be perfect.

However, even his own children can be abandoned like worn out shoes... Yan Heng's impression of Xu Jingxiu has changed somewhat.

He didn't speak, and Xu Jingxiu kept kneeling. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was stagnant for a while.

After a cup of tea, Yan Heng was finally willing to speak.

He did not mention Xu Jingxiu's two children, but simply asked him: "General Xu, is this the same at your border?"

Xu Jingxiu noticed something in Yan Heng's words, but for a moment he didn't understand what he meant, so he had to kowtow: "Go back to the emperor, I don't know what you are talking about."

Yan Heng's tone was calm, but frosty: "You were my right-hand man and accompanied me in my battles. I appreciated your ability, so I gave you the responsibility of guarding the border."

"You have rarely returned to the capital in recent years. You have worked hard and achieved great results. I naturally know it. But -"

Yan Heng's tone was a bit harsh: "I am the emperor and you are a minister. You can only obey the decree I promulgate. Not only did you not obey, but you bargained with me and even thought of other ways! "

"I can't help but wonder if you have become a local emperor while at the border. Everyone must respect you so that you forget your dignity when you return to the capital!"

As soon as the hat was pressed down, Xu Jingxiu immediately felt chilled all over.

"Back to the emperor, I have no such intention. I... I just got carried away and thought that my daughter is just a woman. My ex-wife also had bad conduct and divorced me. She is not worthy of the position of the head of the village. That's why I thought Letting a more outstanding child receive your reward is a lack of consideration, please forgive me!"

Xu Jingxiu knew how to adapt to the situation. When he saw that the emperor was angry, he did not hesitate to attribute the problem to his daughter's background.

The chill on Yan Heng's face became even worse. He slowly repeated a few words: "...the former wife had bad conduct?"
