Chapter 378 How dare you threaten me
Chapter 378 How dare you threaten me
Yao Jia was puzzled and asked someone to open the box.
There was a whole box of baby clothes in it.
The fabric is soft and delicate, and every piece of clothing is embroidered with exquisite patterns.
The tiny lotus, the lively carp, the pure white cute rabbit, the butterfly spreading its wings to fly, as well as the auspicious lotus and auspicious clouds, with fine stitching and colorful colors, all reveal the craftsman's care and blessings.
"There are embroidery pieces for babies from newborn to one-year-old. The workmanship and patterns are better than those of our Baiji embroiderers." Bai Huahua admired as she flipped through the clothes.
"Hey, why is there another letter?" Before I turned to the bottom, I found a letter between the clothes.
Yao Jia's eyes moved away from the clothes and fell on the letter.
The signature on the envelope made her heart tremble slightly.
Xuanyuan Wenyuan...
There was a glimmer of joy in his eyes. These children's clothes were actually made by him.
He took the letter from Bai Huahua's hand and opened it impatiently.
Lines of beautiful and powerful handwriting came into view. At first, the words were full of warmth and care, but gradually they began to change.
Yao Jia's expression also changed from initial joy to confusion, and then to anger.
"Sister Nangong, what did His Majesty say in the letter? Has he already promised you that I will break off the engagement?"
“No!” Yao Jia frowned slightly, put her hands on her hips, and kicked a large wooden box. “How dare you, Xuanyuan Wenyuan, threaten me. How dare I, Nangong Jiayao, be afraid of you!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yao Jia's body stiffened and she covered her seven-month-old belly.
Little Star actually learned from her to kick things.
"What's wrong?" Bai Huahua immediately helped her sit down and reached out to take the letter from her hand. "What's in the letter that makes you so angry?"
Yao Jia naturally couldn't let him read the content, so she used her inner strength to turn the letter into scraps.
"Hey... why did you destroy the letter?"
"I'm angry, no."
Bai Huahua looked at the flying confetti. No matter how curious she was, she didn't dare to ask any more questions. She just comforted her softly, "Don't be angry, Yaoyao. For the sake of the child, you have to take care of yourself. If there is anything, we can discuss and solve it together."
Yao Jia wasn't really angry, she just felt guilty and was threatened, so she felt very upset.
Xuanyuan Wenyuan, this bastard, actually used courtesy before force against her.
The first half of the letter talked about how hard it was for him to make these children's clothes by hand, and the second half was all about persuading her to marry Xi Zhihuan.
No matter what he said, he couldn't always be with Yao Jia, and he felt at ease having someone of his by her side.
Shit!
Just want to monitor her.
He actually dared to threaten her that if she didn't marry Zhihuan, he would make the matter of the hot spring bamboo house known to all three kingdoms.
What a despicable thing!
Although Gu Xiyan did not see the content of the letter, he could roughly guess what it meant from Yao Jia's reaction.
I couldn't help but tease her in her ear, "Are you scared now? You deserve it for letting me lust overwhelm you."
Yao Jia wasn't really afraid, she just wanted to leave Kyoto and didn't want to be caught by anyone.
He stole a glance at the others, then grabbed his sleeve and shook it.
"Hey, why are you still saying these sarcastic words now? Why don't you think of a solution for me?"
Although Gu Xiyan felt resentful, he couldn't get angry because Yao Jia was pregnant at the time, not to mention that it was all in the past.
He lifted Yao Jia's chin and gazed into her affectionate peach blossom eyes, almost falling into them again.
"Beauty is a disaster, a living Daji, making every man crazy about you, and even thinking of sending beauties to you."
After saying that, he sighed, "Xuanyuan Wenyuan did this, but he still couldn't get your favor. It's really pitiful."
Only then did Yao Jia realize the meaning behind Gu Xiyan's words.
She pushed his hand away, stroked her hair, and smiled charmingly.
"That's right. This Pavilion Master is extremely charming and has attracted countless handsome men. If Emperor Xuanyuan doesn't mind being embarrassed, then just publicize it. This will help me become famous."
By then, she will just be shooting herself in the foot and be branded as a woman who has abandoned her husband.
To her, it was just another juicy addition to her romantic affairs.
It's quite cool to think about it.
"But Sister Nangong, will my father be implicated?" Xizhi asked worriedly.
His father is still under house arrest in Liang State.
Yao Jia stood up, holding her pregnant belly, patted his shoulder, and comforted him with a smile.
"Don't worry, since Xuanyuan Wenyuan didn't punish your father before, he will definitely not implicate him because of this matter."
Otherwise, she wouldn't use such a good handle. She just mentioned the matter of the hot spring bamboo house because she felt that she didn't have a chess piece here and she was just throwing a tantrum.
Still so childish.
He also wants to use Xiao Fengyi to put pressure on her. This is really underestimating her.
Let Ye Sinan arrange someone as soon as possible to transport the box of clothes and his attitude back to Liang State.
She would never accept Xuanyuan Wenyuan's conditions and had to make him give up.
"Prepare a carriage for me. I will go to the palace."
"Why?"
"To avoid any more trouble, I must go and ask for a marriage decree for An He and Xi Zhi Huan in person."
Yuzhi also expressed his gratitude to Yaojia profusely.
Yao Jia smiled and waved his hands, saying that he also wanted to avoid Xuanyuan Wenyuan using him to threaten him.
She took precautions with a few people and told them not to take any rumors about her and Xuanyuan Wenyuan seriously.
When Yao Jia arrived at the palace, Xiao Fengyi was discussing state affairs with ministers. It was not convenient to disturb them, so he had to wait outside the palace.
The autumn wind was bleak, and she was pregnant. Sihe went in to report, and then came out and said with a smile, "Your Majesty will be well for a while. Pavilion Master Nangong, please follow me to the side hall to wait for a while. It's warmer there, so you won't get cold outside."
Yao Jia nodded in agreement.
The hall is decorated in a warm and elegant style, with flames jumping in the charcoal basin, dispelling the autumn chill.
Yao Jia found a comfortable chair and sat down.
Sihe also had someone bring a pot of hot tea and some exquisite snacks.
"Pavilion Master Nangong, please have some refreshments. I will come over as soon as His Majesty finishes his visit."
After finishing his instructions, he walked out.
I slept a lot during pregnancy, and my waist couldn't bear sitting for a long time, so I simply leaned on the cushion. Unexpectedly, I fell asleep after just a few moments.
When he woke up again, he was lying in the inner hall, on the bed where Xiao Fengyi usually rested. He was covered with a blanket, and his brocade shoes had been taken off at some point and placed on a footstool.
It was dark inside and the sun was setting outside the window.
I was shocked and secretly regretted how I could fall asleep at this time and sleep so unconsciously.
The eunuch didn't even come in to wake her up.
He hurriedly got up, straightened his clothes, and walked out to the hall.
It was very quiet outside. Xiao Fengyi sat at his desk, writing something. Beside him, a beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes had her sleeves fluttering and was grinding ink for him with her brows lowered. The scene was harmonious and peaceful, as if the troubles in the outside world had nothing to do with them.
Yao Jia's footsteps echoed in the empty palace, breaking the silence.
Xiao Fengyi looked up when he heard the voice, his eyes gently swept across her slightly flustered face, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The woman in gorgeous clothes also turned around, and it was Mrs. Makeup...Song Wei.
Since the incident with Xiao Fengli ended, the late emperor conferred the title of Lady Qianhua on Jiang Sirong, now Song Wei, in order to appease the Jiang family, with the same title as Duke Jiang.
Song Wei bowed slightly to Yao Jia, supported Xiao Fengyi, and left gracefully, leaving the room filled with a faint scent of ink and unfinished tranquility.
"Why is she gone?"
Although Yao Jia had some doubts in her heart, she had more subtle feelings about Song Wei's appearance here.
Looking at Xiao Fengyi, trying to find the answer from him, she found that the tenderness in his eyes did not seem to diminish because of Song Wei's departure. Instead, it had a bit more indescribable depth.
Xiao Fengyi put down the wolf-hair brush in his hand, slowly stood up and walked in front of her.
"She is no longer needed here."
Yao Jia felt even more confused, but she did not forget why she came here today. She was about to bow and greet, but was gently supported by Xiao Fengyi.
"There's no need for formalities between you and me, but are you here for that box?"
Yao Jia nodded, "Your Majesty, I have come here to ask for a marriage decree for Princess Anhe and Prince Jing."
