Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 2052

Chapter 2052

Compared to letting his sister go to Liang State to marry, he would rather sit in the court every day, defend the capital, and not go anywhere.

Xiao Jiu raised his eyes and said firmly, "Then I will go to court with peace of mind. I, the eldest princess of the Northern Wing, must not marry."

Shi Anxia looked at Xiao Jiu's serious expression, and somewhere in her heart seemed to be gently hit, with a subtle sourness rising up.

She and Xiao Jiu were not familiar with each other in past and present lives, but it was this young man who stood in front of her without hesitation and protected her stubbornly.

She was used to protecting others, but now she was being protected by a half-grown boy. The unfamiliar warmth made her stunned for a moment.

My heart suddenly melted, and my hard shell also shattered quietly at this moment.

I didn't want to tease him anymore, so I told him frankly and shared my joy, "The prince consort has ascended the throne in Liang State."

Xiao Jiu: "???"

Wei Pingting: “???”

The two looked at each other, neither of them understood. What did it mean that the prince consort ascended the throne in Liang State?

I understand each word, but I can't understand them together.

Are we really stupid?

In fact, there were two other people who were dumbfounded, namely Eunuch Qi and Madam Zhong, who were carrying fresh fruits, melon seeds and pastries in.

The two of them did not allow anyone else to enter the hall to serve, and did the entire process themselves.

As soon as I came in, I heard these words: "The prince consort has ascended the throne in Liang State."

The two men were petrified, but the reason why they were frozen in place was different.

As Xiao Yunde's close attendant, Eunuch Qi was brought with him all day long. It's not accurate to say that he was completely unaware of the situation.

He had always known that the Prince Consort was alive and well, and that his identity was not simple. But how could he know that his identity was so complicated?

As for Nanny Zhong, she was completely clueless and knew nothing. When she heard the news, she was completely confused and didn't even understand what the phrase "the prince consort ascended the throne in Liang State" meant.

Shi Anxia no longer avoided anyone. After all, everything was over. "The prince consort was originally Emperor Heng of Liang. Now that he has regained the throne, he will naturally take me and the children with him. So I am considered a peace marriage."

The princess' marriage will ensure a century of friendship between the two countries. This is just a side thing.

There was thunder in Xiao Jiu's mind, but he still didn't quite understand. His heart was beating wildly, even more nervous than when he got married and ascended the throne. He spoke incoherently, "The charcoal seller, is he still alive?"

Shi Anxia smiled and nodded, "Yes, she's still alive."

As soon as the three words "still alive" came out firmly, Xiao Jiu burst into tears. The half-grown boy suddenly knelt on the ground, wrapped his arms around his head, and sobbed.

Like a wounded little animal, he whimpered. The charcoal seller was still alive! The light in his heart seemed to light up again, illuminating the end of the darkness.

When Wei Pingting saw him crying, she also cried and patted her husband's back with her little hands.

Shi Anxia stood up and walked over, squatting on the ground, and touched Xiao Jiu's head like an older sister. "I didn't mean to hide it from you, but it's a serious matter. The fewer people who know about the fake death of the prince consort, the safer he will be. He faked his death to get away in order to eliminate spies and dissidents..."

The young emperor raised his tearful face, his fair face filled with persistence and passion, "Imperial sister, there is no need to explain. I just want to know that he is still alive. He... wuwuwu... the charcoal seller is still alive..."

Xiao Yunde looked at his youngest son with mixed feelings, "What a shame for a man to cry like that! Get up and wipe your tears. I have a job for you."

Wei Pingting quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears from her husband's face, and then pulled him hard, "Get up quickly, stop crying, or you'll get scolded."

Xiao Jiu felt a little embarrassed for crying like this in front of the little queen. He wiped his face with his sleeves, got up from the ground, and sobbed, "Please give me instructions, father."

Hey! Suddenly I was happy, the charcoal seller was still alive, and I had energy to do anything.
