Chapter 201 King Jing Admits His Mistake



Chapter 201 King Jing Admits His Mistake

Xie Run didn't expect that Jiang Baobao really felt that he was okay again.

As soon as she sent someone to find King Jing, Jiang Baobao sent someone to Fang Yuaner's yard.

It's not that I want to provoke Fang Yuaner, I just want to spread the message on purpose.

The disgusted Fang Yuaner didn't eat for the whole day.

He said he didn't care, but after a long time of agony, he sent someone to watch the road leading to the front yard.

When Fang Yuan'er learned that King Jing had agreed to have dinner at Chunshan Court in the evening, she was so angry that she smashed several sets of precious tea sets.

Even Qiuxiang, who never paid much attention to these things, felt pained.

But I didn't dare to go forward to comfort her.

Fang Yuaner cursed angrily: "Xie Run, that bitch, she just hit me in the face on purpose!"

"She used to act so gentle and harmless, but now that I'm down, she starts to get carried away!"

"Okay, okay, you all want to step on me, right?"

As she was talking, Fang Yuaner smashed a celadon vase on the Duobao Pavilion.

Qiuxiang saw it and hurried to stop him, "Master, you can't smash this, it's a gift from the emperor!"

"If you smash it and are discovered, you will be beheaded!"

Fang Yuan'er sneered, "Behead?! The emperor himself has no rules at all, yet he imposes these feudal rules on us. He wants my life for smashing a broken vase?!"

Having said that, Fang Yuaner didn't smash it.

All the maids in Songya Courtyard were so frightened by her words that they knelt on the ground with pale faces.

Qiuxiang tugged at Fang Yuaner's skirt, "Master, be careful with your words!"

Fang Yuaner also realized that she had spoken out of turn and waved her hand, "I just spoke out of turn."

Seeing that her anger had subsided, Qiuxiang quickly stood up, sent the maid out of the room, and gave her another round of persuasion.

But somehow this news reached King Jing's ears.

Upon hearing this, King Jing's face turned grim. "How audacious of the Fang family to defy the current emperor!"

Previously, Prince Jing only knew that Fang Yuan'er lacked reverence for the imperial power and always liked to discuss palace affairs with him. Now he realized that she lacked more than just reverence.

She even dares to criticize the current emperor!

No matter how much King Jing disliked the emperor, he would not dare to say anything bad about him. How could a mere concubine dare to speak so wildly!

At this moment, King Jing felt a little regretful about giving Fang Yuaner too much power and letting her know too much.

But it was just as Xie Run guessed.

King Jing cannot demote Fang Yuaner for the time being.

He was very concerned about his reputation. After scolding King An, he contradicted himself. If there were more rumors, King Jing would be furious to death.

Thinking of this, King Jing became angry.

He dropped the document in his hand and said to Eunuch Shi'an, "Didn't the palace give us a batch of jewelry as a reward?"

Eunuch Shi'an quickly said, "Yes. But didn't you ask the princess to keep it for now and distribute it to the various courtyards in a couple of days?"

King Jing waved his hand, "No need."

"Send two people to Chunshan Courtyard and let Concubine Xie choose first."

Although Eunuch Shi'an didn't understand why King Jing changed his mind, he still hurried to send someone.

King Jing had already stood up and said, "I will go and take a look too."

King Jing had agreed to let Xie Run visit her in the evening, but he went there early before it got dark, fearing that many people would be jealous.

But Eunuch Shi'an doesn't care about these things.

He just needs to serve the prince well.

As soon as Xie Run got the news that King Jing was coming, he heard that Fang Yuaner was throwing a tantrum in her own yard.

It wasn't that she was specifically targeting Fang Yuaner, it was just that the two courtyards were close to each other.

If there is any slight movement, people in the two yards can immediately pass the news on.

Xie Run shook his head regretfully: "I'm still too good-tempered."

"Fang Yuan'er plotted against me several times, but I could only use petty quarrels to irritate her..."

Sometimes, Xie Run would feel that he was not living up to his expectations.

But she couldn't take the initiative to plot against Fang Yuaner.

If anything is discovered, the good impression I have accumulated with King Jing may be completely destroyed.

It’s not worth it to deal with Fang Yuaner.

Dan Tao also comforted Xie Run: "Master, we won't do anything that would harm others."

"You've gotten what you deserved, but Concubine Fang got pissed off. This is the perfect retribution!"

Xie Run smiled and said, "That's what you said."

"It's boring to just bully the little ones. Why don't I teach you the big ones?"

The master and servant were originally talking when King Jing's deep voice suddenly interrupted them.

Dan Tao and Xie Run were both startled and quickly stood up.

Dan Tao's face turned pale. "Your Highness, the master was just joking with us servants..."

Xie Run raised his hand and pressed her, signaling her not to panic, then stood up on his own.

Isn't it just that someone heard you saying something bad about someone else?

After all, she was King Jing's favorite concubine. If she didn't even have the right to say a few words, her favor would be in vain.

King Jing lowered his eyes and said, "Concubine Xie, you are becoming more and more bold. You got up before I even told you to?"

Xie Run asked gently, "Then Your Majesty just doesn't want me to get up?"

King Jing raised his eyebrows, "Have you also learned to trick me into saying something?"

Xie Run slowly took two steps forward, raised his hand and grasped Prince Jing's arm, "What did you mean by what the prince just said?"

The beauty threw herself into his arms, so King Jing naturally would not refuse.

He smiled and said, "I heard that you were angry with Concubine Fang, so I came here to help you bully her."

Xie Run glanced at him with an interested expression: "Your Highness, please stop keeping me in suspense. Please speak quickly!"

King Jing paused.

Unexpectedly, Xie Run was not pretending at all and asked her for advice with great interest.

It was completely different from her usual gentle and harmless appearance.

However, King Jing also knew that Xie Run was not a gentle and harmless person.

She also has fangs, but she doesn't show them easily to bite people.

King Jing laughed and said, "Did she offend you so badly?"

Xie Run pursed his lips, glanced at Prince Jing, and said word by word: "Your Highness, she murdered your own son!"

"You don't feel bad, but you won't allow me to feel bad physically and mentally?"

As he spoke, Xie Run's eyes seemed to be a little watery, and his voice had a hint of tears.

King Jing felt a little soft in the heart when she glanced at him.

Seeing Xie Run turning to leave, King Jing took a few steps to catch up with her and held her hand, "This is my fault."

The maids nearby could not hide their astonishment when they saw King Jing admit his mistake.

Dan Tao quickly pulled the person out.

Xie Run was held in the arms of King Jing, who grabbed his clothes and said seriously, "Your Highness, you may think I am narrow-minded or vicious."

"I will never forgive Concubine Fang in my lifetime!"

"If I ever get the chance, I'll definitely give her a few hard kicks and make her swallow her words."

Although Xie Run was angry, he could still complain to King Jing in a gentle voice.

"She drugged Tao Tao that day, and the evidence is irrefutable. Yet, she still accuses me of not taking good care of the child?"

"How dare she call me a concubine?!"

"She took good care of the Third Young Master. He had diarrhea for a few days, and she had no idea."

"When something goes wrong, they only know how to punish the wet nurse..."

A crystal teardrop slid down from the corner of Xie Run's eye. "The Third Young Master is so unlucky to have a mother like her!"

It was also because Xie Run didn't want to offend King Jing.

Otherwise, she really wanted to ask, what is the difference between Fang Yuaner and Concubine An?
