Li Guanwen's forehead was dripping with cold sweat.
Your Majesty's thoughts couldn't be guessed randomly. However, Li Guanwen had been by Li Qitian's side all the time. He had some understanding of Li Qitian's thoughts and decisions.
Li Guanwen knew that Li Qitian was on guard against Pang Xiao. He also knew that finding Madam Pang and sending her to Pang Xiao was not necessarily out of good intentions.
He had no right to comment on this matter.
However, he knew that Your Majesty wouldn't want Madam Pang to be driven out of the Wang Mansion.
Even if she was to be driven out, it couldn't be when he was present! Otherwise, Your Majesty would be in a bad mood. What if she took her anger out on him?
Li Guanwen said with a smile, "This servant understands Wang Ye's filial piety. Presumably, Madam Pang can also understand your feelings. However, even if you understand, the people outside may not understand. If someone slandered Wang Ye's good intentions as not serving his official mother, what should we do? "
Madam Pang heard this and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She said in agreement, "Wang Ye, if you are angry, you can be angry. However, you can't ignore the Pang Family's reputation. In any case, I am your official mother. Don't tell me you don't want to serve your official mother! If these words were to spread, wouldn't others slander our Pang Family? "
Li Guanwen had already felt that Pang Xiao seemed to be wavering after saying those words. However, who would have thought that Madam Pang would suddenly interrupt and say such unpleasant words!
It wasn't like she was talking to a three-year-old child. How could she threaten and reprimand her? With such words, which man with a bit of courage would yield? What's more, Pang Xiao wasn't even born in the Pang Family. Her mother was even persecuted by Madam Pang. Pang Xiao didn't kill Madam Pang. Instead, she followed the imperial edict and brought her back to support her. This was already very unexpected.
Sure enough, Pang Xiao's face turned even uglier. He ignored Madam Huo and pretended not to hear her. He turned to Li Guanwen and said,
"Thank you for your kind intentions, Chief Steward Li. However, This King is sincere and wholeheartedly wants the best for Madame Feng, so he doesn't care what others say or think. As long as Madam Feng could have a good life, it would be fine. This King is worried that Madam Pang will be angered to death if things go on like this. "
After saying that, Pang Xiao shot a cold glance at Madam Pang.
Madam Pang felt as if her heart had been stabbed a few times with an awl. She could even feel the coldness in Pang Xiao's eyes, which were like that of a ferocious beast staring at its prey.
She actually felt that if she didn't obediently walk out "upright" this time, Pang Xiao would have the ability to carry her out "horizontally".
Why didn't she realize that this person was actually a wolf cub a while ago?!
His filial piety and obedience to her even made her feel that it was not bad to raise a son like Pang Xiao.
She didn't know much about Pang Xiao, and because she let down her guard, she changed from observing him from the beginning to the current situation.
If she had known that this person's true nature was so difficult to get along with, she wouldn't have spoken like this.
If she was really moved out of the mansion because of this, who knew how furious Your Majesty would be. How could she bear the consequences?
Madam Pang frowned, and the creases between her eyebrows became deeper. Her fingers tightly grasped the sleeves of her gown, and her lips opened and closed, but she couldn't say anything softly because of her face.
She felt that even if she softened her words, Pang Xiao wouldn't let her go, given his temperament. The result would be the same, so why should she make a pointless struggle?
Li Guanwen looked on coldly and couldn't help but shake his head at this moment.
He didn't know if Your Majesty had contacted Madam Pang in private.
If Madam Pang was really someone arranged by Your Majesty, he could only say that Your Majesty didn't choose a good person this time. She couldn't see the opportunity, didn't know how to judge the situation, and didn't know how to be flexible. Madam Pang only knew how to be rude and unreasonable and put on the airs of a mistress. Not to mention that Pang Xiao saw this woman every day, even he, who saw her for the first time, was disgusted with Madam Pang.
At this time, Pang Xiao had ordered Huzi to prepare the horse. He turned back and said to Li Guanwen, "I'll have to trouble Eunuch Li to be a witness in front of Your Majesty. Otherwise, This King will speak unilaterally and someone will slander him behind his back. "
Things had already come to this. Even if Li Guanwen resisted in his heart, what could he do? If he refused Pang Xiao face to face, he would be in an environment where he had to be on guard against Pang Xiao's revenge all the time in the future.
Rather than that, it was better to make a good relationship.
"Prince Zhongshun is really too polite. Although this servant is slow-witted, I can still distinguish between right and wrong. If Your Majesty asks, this servant will tell you the truth. "
"In that case, I'll have to trouble Eunuch Li." Pang Xiao politely walked out with Li Guanwen. Under the cover of the cloak, he slipped an exquisite brocade bag into Li Guanwen's sleeve.
Li Guanwen was stunned. He first touched the bag. The things in the bag were not gold or silver. Looking at the shape of the grains, it should be a bag of gems.
Li Guanwen knew that a person like Pang Xiao would not be stingy. He couldn't help but feel happy in his heart. He carefully put the bag of gems into his sleeve pocket.
Madam Pang stood stiffly in the same place. Seeing Pang Xiao and Li Guanwen talking and laughing as they left the inner residence, she gritted her teeth and squeezed out a word from between her teeth, "Ungrateful wretch!"
But no matter what Madam Pang thought in her heart, Pang Xiao still complained to Li Qitian.
His arm was bandaged. When he saw Li Qitian, he knelt straight down with a thud. He first complained that Ji Zeyu had hurt him carelessly, shouting, "I have never been injured like this on the battlefield."
Li Qitian wanted to see this scene the most in his heart. But in front of Pang Xiao, Li Qitian only comforted him with a few words and did not say much.
Pang Xiao sighed softly and changed the topic. He said that he wanted to move Madam Pang out of the mansion.
Li Qitian was quite surprised, "Wasn't it fine before? Why did you suddenly say this?"
Pang Xiao reported to Li Qitian what had happened in the mansion just now and asked Li Guanwen to be the witness.
Li Guanwen did not dare to speak for Pang Xiao, but he also did not dare to do nothing. Therefore, when Li Qitian asked about the situation at that time, Li Guanwen cleverly told the truth and showed Pang Xiao's helplessness incisively and vividly. He restrained himself from expressing any emotion and did not affect Your Majesty's judgment.
For a moment, the imperial study was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
After a long time, Li Qitian weighed the pros and cons and nodded in agreement.
"You should choose a good house. After all, she was officially married to General Zeyu. It is not good to neglect her."
"Yes. I will respect Your Majesty's teachings. Although I will live in another mansion, I will not treat Madam Pang unfairly. "
"Well, that's good." Li Qitian comforted Pang Xiao again and asked him to leave.
