The harem is full of gossip, Your Majesty, you are being cheated Ch. 97
Duke's Mansion.
Duke Xie Cheng was pretending to be sick, but when he saw the token sent in by the guard, he broke out in a cold sweat and sat up instantly.
"Where is the person who gave the token?" Xie Cheng's voice trembled.
"Still waiting at the door." The guard said.
"What? Still waiting at the door? Hurry up and invite the person in!" Xie Cheng said as he got out of bed, "Forget it, I'll go by myself!"
He threw on a piece of clothing and rushed out.
When he arrived at the door, Xie Cheng saw the familiar face. His face changed slightly and he was about to salute.
Yue Lin said with a smile, "Duke, don't you invite us in?"
Xie Cheng wiped the cold sweat from his sweat and said quickly, "Of course, of course."
He didn't dare to expose Yue Lin's identity, but just followed carefully.
It was not until they reached the empty reception room that Xie Cheng knelt down with some trepidation, "I didn't know that the Emperor and the Empress were coming. I failed to welcome you. Please punish me, Your Majesty."
Yue Lin raised his hand, "Duke, please stand up. I heard that the Duke was seriously ill, so I brought the Empress and the second princess to visit him."
Xie Cheng's cold sweat broke out all of a sudden.
Jiang Zhimiao asked maliciously, "Is the Duke's illness cured?"
Xie Cheng wiped his sweat, "I... I just caught a cold occasionally. I rested for a day and I'm almost well."
"Oh? I thought the Duke was pretending to be sick." Yue Lin smiled.
Xie Cheng's knees softened and he knelt down again, "Your Majesty, I have always been loyal to you and would never dare to commit such a crime of deceiving the emperor."
Yue Lin just looked at him with a half-smile.
Xie Cheng complained in his heart.
This Emperor could really kill people when he got impulsive.
He was living a good life, and didn't want to lose his head suddenly.
Xie Cheng pretended to be sick this time, and everyone with a discerning eye knew that he was just avoiding Yue Hua.
The Emperor should also know this.
Xie Cheng thought that Yue Lin would be happy to see this happen, but he didn't expect that he would personally bring the Empress to visit him.
What did this mean?
Was he going to attack the Xie family?
No, no, no, this shouldn't be.
In Xie Cheng's mind, he suddenly remembered what his wife said after returning from the palace.
"My Lord, you have always been thinking of being neutral and not helping either side. It is right to be prudent and protect yourself, but think about it, can we still be neutral now? Qiu'er means that she must not marry Prince An He. Based on your understanding of Prince An He, is he a tolerant and generous person? He is only a prince now, and he is under pressure from the Emperor. If he really succeeds, what will happen to Qiu'er and the Xie family!"
"From the moment we rejected the marriage, we have no room for neutrality."
Xie Cheng thought, and cold sweat dripped down.
Of course he knew that the Xie family no longer had a neutral position.
But—
Before the death of the late Emperor, he met him and told him one thing.
The late Emperor said, Yue Lin would not live long. And there was no way to leave offspring.
He was chosen to ascend the throne only because of the rules set by the ancestors.
And Prince An He was smart and wise, and he was the heir he really valued.
The late Emperor told him that he intended to have the first lady from the Xie family.
It was difficult for Xie Cheng to describe his feelings at that moment.
It was not joy.
But fear.
Everyone said that the late Emperor paid attention to etiquette and law, and he really valued the eldest son.
But he saw the indifference in the late Emperor's eyes.
When he mentioned the current emperor, there was no warmth in his eyes.
To the late Emperor, the Emperor was just a stepping stone for Prince An He.
Xie Cheng also knew the intention of the late Emperor to tell him this.
The late Emperor wanted him to protect Prince An He.
