Died In Infancy! My Wife Is Actually A Villain

Yong'an Palace.

Inside the room, Mrs. Xiao raised her eyes slightly, looked at Nangong Jue across from her with curiosity, and asked in a cold voice: "How come the prime minister has time to come and sit here today?"

Nangong Jue smiled and said, "I want to talk to Concubine Xiao about something."

Mrs. Xiao sneered, "Prime Minister, there should be nothing to talk about between us!"

Faced with Xiao's cynicism, Nangong Jue was not angry and said calmly: "Concubine Xiao, I know that your family and I have some conflicts, and we have been secretly competing over the years. I admit, my Nangong family lost this time, so I came here specifically to apologize.”

"There's no need to apologize, I can't bear it," Madam Xiao said.

Back then, the Prime Minister's Office sent someone to assassinate the second eldest son of the Xiao family, who was actually her second brother. This kind of sworn blood feud was not something that the Xiao family could easily let go of.

Nangong Jue was not surprised and put a smile on his face, "Xiao Guifei, as the saying goes, it is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. Why should we keep fighting like this? I know that what happened back then was the fault of my Nangong family. , as long as you can let go of your past prejudices and try to meet any conditions you put forward, what do you think?"

"Then you first hand over the assassin who killed my second brother, so that I can count on you to be somewhat sincere." Madam Xiao said.

"If I hand over the person, Concubine Xiao will be willing to reconcile." Nangong Jue asked.

Killing the second son of the Xiao family was just a guard in his house. If the life of a guard could be used to ease the relationship between the two families, it would naturally be the best choice.

Madam Xiao said: "This is just your sincerity. If you don't even have this bit of sincerity, you can go back now." Madam Xiao said.

"Concubine Xiao, I came here today to make peace with you. I hope we can get along in harmony. There is no need to be so fussy." Nangong Jue said.

Mrs. Xiao said without giving any face, "Prime Minister, there is no need to be pretentious here. I have always disliked you, the Nangong family."

As soon as these words came out, the smile on Nangong Jue's face suddenly became much colder, "Concubine Xiao, you really want to make trouble with my Nangong family, what good will this do to you? On the contrary, if you and I can join forces, we can Our strength will definitely help Prince Zhuang ascend the throne in the future, and no prince will be his opponent."

Mrs. Xiao said: "Chen'er is now very valued by His Majesty. Even if there is no Prime Minister's Office, I believe he will still have a chance to sit in that position."

"Concubine Xiao! You really want to make a fight with my Nangong family to the death."

Nangong Jue's face became more angry, his voice was very low, and he was no longer as groveling and constantly trying to please as before.

"What? His expression changed immediately after I asked him a few questions." Madam Xiao asked.

Seeing that Concubine Xiao was still mocking him in a weird way, Nangong Jue tried hard to contain the anger in his heart, "Since Concubine Xiao is unwilling to talk, I won't say more about the truth. Let's say goodbye!"

After saying that, Nangong Jue left the palace in a swaggering manner.

...

Since the last time she told Jiang Heyan about stocking up on food, the other party has been buying food for her in the market during this period.

As long as it doesn't get wet, food can be stored for a long time, so if you store food now, you can still eat it next year.

One year old is eliminated amidst the sound of firecrackers.

Time flies by and it’s New Year’s Eve.

Kyoto is particularly lively today, with firecrackers going off, festive calligraphy posted everywhere, and children in every household wearing new clothes.

Inside Prince Zhuang's Mansion.

"Your Highness, there are fireworks tonight at the bridge in the east of the city. Can we go and watch them together?" Jiang Heyan walked through the wind and snow and came to the house. Her beautiful face was filled with joy. She looked very good.

"Okay." Gu Chen said with a smile.

Anyway, he has nothing to do now, so he might as well go out with this girl for a walk.

"Then let's set off now! Fireworks will be set off east of the city in half an hour. If it's too late, we won't be able to see them."

Seeing that Gu Chen agreed, Jiang Heyan smiled brightly and directly took Gu Chen's arm, urging him to go out like a little girl.

Not long after, the two went out together.

Tonight, Kyoto is dimly lit and colorful, and the bustling crowds are moving like a tide, with people coming and going. There are also activities such as setting off lanterns, guessing word puzzles, and comparing poems, which attracted the attention of countless people.

"Haha, Your Highness, it's so lively tonight!"

Looking at the bustling street, Jiang Heyan looked at Gu Chen with excitement on her face, her eyes shining.

"Would you like to guess lantern riddles or correct poems?" Gu Chen smiled and suggested.

Jiang Heyan immediately shook her head and said, "No, I'm so stupid. It won't be good if people see the joke later."

Every lady has learned poetry, calligraphy and etiquette since she was a child. This simple activity is actually not difficult for Jiang Heyan.

But even so, Jiang Heyan was still afraid that she would stink and lose His Highness's face.

"Haha. Sister-in-law, cousin!"

A voice of surprise came from behind, and then, Xiao Lexuan appeared in front of Gu Chen and Gu Chen like a flying bird, and said with a smile: "Cousin, sister-in-law, you guys come to watch the fireworks too!"

Jiang Heyan's eyes were startled, and she said happily: "Lexuan, you come to watch the fireworks too!"

Xiao Lexuan quickly walked to Jiang Heyan and said, "Yes! Sister-in-law, why don't we go watch it together. I'm bored alone."

"Where's Xiao Zuo? Why didn't he accompany you out?"

Gu Chen interjected and asked, his eyes a little more curious.

On weekdays, Xiao Zuo was the best to Xiao Lexuan and agreed to almost all her requests. Now when I go out to watch the fireworks, I should be looking at her too.

Xiao Lexuan pouted. His face was a little unhappy, "My brother is in a hurry to find a partner now?! He has abandoned me a long time ago."

Hearing this, Gu Chen subconsciously looked at Jiang Heyan, who also looked at Gu Chen with the same thought in mind.

My good boy.

Xiao Zuo went to find Jiang Anran again? !

This is all about looking at the other person!

You don’t really like each other anymore!

"Le Xuan, your brother won't accompany you, so why don't you come with us?"

Looking at Xiao Lexuan who was a little emotional, Jiang Heyan smiled slightly and comforted her in a low voice.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. My sister-in-law is the best to me."

Xiao Lexuan immediately turned from sadness to joy, then happily held Jiang Heyan's little hand, looked at Gu Chen on the other side and asked: "Cousin, you don't mind if I hold my sister-in-law's hand, right?!"

Gu Chen: .....

Are you sure you want to discuss this with me again? !
