"Father do not worry." Xie Shu's expression did not change at his father's threat, "This son can handle it."
"An old fox is after all a fox while Eldest Brother is a tiger." Xie Wu scoffed, "Moreover if Eldest Brother really cannot do it, there is still me."
"You really dare to say it." Xie Jing Xing narrowed his eyes, "Eldest Brother, look after this brat for me."
Since young, Xie Shu did not need anyone to worry about him and was very calm at such a young age. It was Xie Wu who gave others a headache. One did not know how many mistakes he had made in Long Ye since young and he was just like another Xie Jing Xing. It was just that Xie Jing Xing had the Marquis of Lin An who was the same as him. Now Xie Wu's father was the Empress and if one was not careful, it would provoke the impeachment of the Imperial Censor.
Fortunately there was Xie Shu who would always clean up Xie Wu's mess and clean up many messes for him. It was just that as Xie Shu grew up, the Crown Prince's words and actions would be noticed by others, thus it was not good to help Xie Wu like when he was young. Xie Wu simply supported himself and what he needed to do every day was to make trouble, make up for it, make trouble again and make up again.
It could be said that in the younger generation of the Long Ye official's family, there was no one who did not suffer from Xie Wu's poison. Xie Wu's bad heart was better than the master.
Now that Xie Shu was appointed and Xie Jing Xing was about to bring Shen Miao out to travel, Xie Jing Xing could even close his eyes to know what Xie Wu was planning. Most likely Xie Wu was thinking that since the younger generation were more or less cleaned up, it was time to go and harm the old fellows of the Long Ye official's family.
Xie Wu said innocently, "Father, how can you not believe me? Am I that kind of person? If Eldest Brother really become the Emperor, if someone were to find trouble, there would be many things that would be inconvenient to appear and one would need to use some special means. Isn't that right, Eldest Brother? "He blinked his eyes at Xie Shu.
Xie Shu expressionlessly turned his head away and avoided Xie Wu's hint.
Xie Jing Xing's lips hooked up, "Since you said it like that, I feel that Tie Yi and Mo Qing should be watching you."
"Father, you cannot do this!" Xie Wu immediately said but after thinking about it, he felt relieved, "But if you want to do it then do it. Anyway Mo Qing and Tie Yi would not be able to beat me."
Xie Jing Xing slapped the table, "Little brat, are you thinking of rebelling?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone outside the door say, "Who wants to rebel?"
Shen Miao walked in from the door.
She really didn't look like the mother of two children. Instead, after so many years, it was as if a piece of jade had been polished to become smoother and glossier. She was a natural beauty, quiet and dignified, making people unable to take their eyes off her.
Xie Shu and Xie Wu hurriedly called out for their mother.
Shen Miao walked over and glared at Xie Jing Xing, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Xie Jing Xing said, "I am talking nonsense? Do you believe this brat? " Then he scolded Xie Wu, "You ingrate, I, your father, changed your diaper and fed you milk, it's like I fed a dog."
Xie Shu, Xie Wu, Shen Miao: "…"
Speaking of which, during the time when Shen Miao was in deep sleep, Xie Jing Xing indeed treated Xie Shu and Xie Wu very well. Personally taking care of the feces and urine, changing the wet nurse, and hugging her to sleep at night, it was simply everything important and trivial. Others said that with Xie Jing Xing's temperament, it was really inconceivable that he could be so gentle to a child. But Xie Jing Xing really did it.
What Xie Jing Xing displayed in that period of time was indeed a gentle and considerate father.
But ever since Shen Miao woke up, he found these two brats to be an eyesore no matter how he looked at them. He kept saying that the child must grow up to be a man earlier, and that kind of sharpening made outsiders feel heartache.
It was also because Xie Shu and Xie Wu had strong willpower that they did not grow crooked at such a young age, and in terms of talent and conduct, they were the best in the Great Liang. And both of their looks had inherited the advantages of their parents, being handsome and beautiful with a natural temperament. Xie Shu was cold and Xie Wu was romantic. Many young ladies from official families in Long Ye secretly admired them. But these two children also said in front of outsiders that they wanted to be like their parents in this lifetime, to only marry one female and be in love with her till their hair turns white.
Thus the parents of official families felt that it was too difficult, and the young ladies from official families or commoners admired this pair of brothers even more. Such an outstanding male that was affectionate and righteous was one of a kind in the world. For Xie Jing Xing and Shen Miao, this pair of Emperor and Empress, to have such a virtuous reputation in the Great Liang, other than being able to govern the country, it was also because Xie Shu and Xie Wu were very likeable.
Xie Shu and Xie Wu naturally did not treat this strict father as kindly as they treated their loving mother, thus Xie Jing Xing was often indignant, saying that these two little brats were not as tactful as that 'Jiao Jiao' that he raised.
Shen Miao said, "Ah Shu, Ah Wu, in the beginning, there will be many officials that will target you. It is not that they are not good, but at the very beginning, they will experience all these. There is no need to bother with them. Ah Shu, you only need to do what you should do. If there is really that stubborn, Ah Wu, you have always been smart and know what is the best to do. "
She actually encouraged Xie Wu to use some 'special means'.
Xie Wu indeed became excited, "Indeed there is no one who knows me better than Mother!"
"Furen!" Xie Jing Xing said, "You also want to play around with them?"
"Ah Wu's means are much gentler than yours in the past. Moreover one cannot be rigid in doing things in this world, it is naturally good to be tactful in moderation. Ah Shu, Mother is not worried about your ability and Mother also has nothing to instruct you. What to instruct … If you meet a young lady that you like, then do not hesitate. "
Xie Shu, "…"
Xie Wu said, "Correct. Eldest Brother should have long found a Eldest Sao for me."
"And you." Shen Miao stared at him, "You better restrain yourself for me. Do not think that I do not know how many young ladies in Long Ye have been teased by you. If one do not like, then do not go and tease, as one would waste one's life for no reason. " Speaking of this, Shen Miao was so angry that she glared at Xie Jing Xing. What kind of father would have what kind of son. All the same!
Xie Jing Xing innocently touched his nose.
When Xie Wu saw that the topic had turned to him, he quickly changed the topic, "Mother, do not say it like that. Speaking of which, how long are you going to travel for?"
"When your Mother has a Younger Sister, we will return." Xie Jing Xing interrupted.
"It cannot be?" Xie Wu exaggeratedly said, "You are already so old …" The rest of the words disappeared under Shen Miao's stern gaze.
"After seeing a good scenery and going to a good place, one will naturally return home." Shen Miao said.
That was the dream of one's youth and in the past days, due to various reasons, one had to put it on hold. Fortunately there was still a chance now and one's life was still very long, and it was so fulfilling and satisfying.
Xie Shu smiled gently, "Father and Mother rest assured that this son will not disappoint."
"One will also find a wife." Xie Wu added.
