Chapter 809: Chapter 809-Making an Enemy
809
As for the Zhou family’s actions in Jiang Prefecture and Xiao Baoshan, they did not mention anything at all. It was as if nothing had happened.
The external situation was like this.
Otherwise, why would the emperors of Daliang think of ways to curb the power of the aristocratic families?
In the previous dynasty, it wasn’t that he didn’t leave Jiankang.
Do you have any great ambitions as an emperor? If the aristocratic families below do not support you, it is useless for you to do anything to benefit the people every day. Not only do you not follow them, but you are also smeared.
In the end, your family didn’t get any benefits, and the people below scolded
you.
Was it good to be an emperor?
If you don’t want to make a difference and only want to eat, drink, and have fun, it’s definitely good to be a yes-man of an aristocratic family to ensure that you live to death. As long as you had a bit of free will and wanted to do something, it would not be easy to be a leader. You might even be scolded from
a young age.
Daliang had just experienced war and needed time to recover.
It really wasn’t that the world would be at peace if the war stopped. Who knew how many people still couldn’t eat and starved to death? Who knew how many people still refused to starve to death and were still occupying the mountains and becoming kings?
This required time.
If a noble family does not provoke you at this time and does not take the lead in rebelling against you, what higher requirements can you have?
In fact, he did not expect such a situation in Jiang Zhou, but Xie Xian knew. After listening to Xie Xian’s explanation and the on-site investigation of the Eldest Princess of Xuan City, Emperor Yong Ping knew that Xie Xiancheng did not lie to him.

That was the case.
If he wanted to rebuild the mountains and rivers and create glory, he would have to take it slow.
There was no need to tell the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng all this. She needed to suppress the pressure of the aristocratic family, but she could not be too ruthless. The Zhou Clan was easy to deal with, but if all the clans banded together to resist, it would be disastrous.
Every time Emperor Yong Ping couldn’t sleep, he would feel that his throne was unstable.
His father had four legs on his throne, but he felt that his throne only had two legs, and they were not of average length. They would sway from time to time, reminding him, It’s not stable.
It was really annoying.
Originally, he wanted to call the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng into the palace to teach her a good lesson, but she made him even more annoyed. She even said a few words to Xiao Baoshu to take good care of his sister. She didn’t even bother to reprimand Xiao Yushu and sent the couple away.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng said,”
“I haven’t seen sister-in-law for a long time. It’s rare for sister-in-law to have good news, so I have to congratulate her personally. I’ll go see my sister-in- law first, then I’ll leave the palace.”
Emperor Yong Ping thought that it made sense. Empress Xiao said that she wanted to recuperate and stabilize her pregnancy, but Xuancheng had good intentions and had no reason to refuse, so he agreed.
Coincidentally, he also had something to tell Xiao Baoshu.
It would have been fine if the eldest princess of Xuancheng hadn’t gone, but she was almost frightened when she saw Empress Xiao. Her yellow face was even darker than the color of her clothes.
Other people gained weight during pregnancy, but Empress Xiao had lost weight instead. If she wasn’t four or five months pregnant, one wouldn’t be able to tell that she was pregnant and would think that she had been raped by the Emperor.
However, her stomach was only slightly protruding. If one didn’t look closely, one wouldn’t be able to see it.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was terrified, afraid that she would scare her stomach if she spoke too loudly.
On the contrary, Empress Xiao knew that the Eldest Princess of Xuancheng was pregnant and congratulated her repeatedly. She also grabbed her and told her to be careful of this and that…The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng didn’t even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that she would lose her child if she breathed too heavily.
It could be seen that Empress Xiao had good intentions, but such a nervous style did not suit the eldest princess of Xuancheng.
She was so frightened that she quickly retreated after sitting for a while. She was afraid that she would be assimilated and would not even dare to walk in the future.
Speaking of which, it was true that Empress Xiao even needed a palace maid to support her when she walked.
The Eldest Princess of Xuancheng could not help much other than telling the Emperor to take care of the Empress. Empress Xiao had miscarried twice and her body was weak, so she couldn’t help. It was better not to cause trouble in front of her.
The eldest princess of Xuancheng knew that Empress Xiao would only see her when she went. Ordinary people would not see anyone and would close their doors to welcome guests.
The dignified empress, in order to give birth to a child, even the power of the palace was thrown to the back of her head. She was quite desperate.

The next day was the ninth day of the ninth month.
The Double Ninth Festival was a very grand festival in Daliang. In the past, the palace would always invite the wives of the officials inside and outside, and the Emperor would bring his ministers to drink together.
However, Empress Xiao was pregnant this year and was fully focused on taking care of her child. Although Consort Pan Xian wanted to help the Empress Dowager, she was powerless.
Although Emperor Yong Ping had paranoia and didn’t want to go outside the palace again, feeling unsafe and full of conspiracies, the palace wasn’t safe either.
The imperial court of Daliang still needed cohesion, so they braced themselves and organized a banquet.
This time, they abandoned Waguan Temple and chose Qingliang Temple, which was the closest to Stone City. Yang Shao was in charge of the guards and mobilized a large number of royal guards, as well as the city guards. They stood guard at every three steps and five steps. They were stacked in layers. Even if a fly flew in, they would have to investigate their ancestors first. They were despised by the aristocratic families and courtiers.
How was this a pleasure? It was like being in prison, and drinking was limited. When he climbed up, he saw that the ground was densely packed with guards. Were they here to see the scenery or the people?
However, with the Emperor around, no one was able to dampen their spirits and say anything. Even Xie Xian was able to sit down and accompany them, drinking wine for once, so what could they say?
They had forcefully taken down Xie Feng. He didn’t waste any effort, and after a long time, the matter would be settled. The Emperor was like a protective talisman attached to Xie Xian, and they had nothing to say.
On the other hand, Prince Huaiyang had learned his lesson from the last family banquet. He was afraid that he had drunk too much and lost his composure. This time, he did not drink a single drop.
The Double Ninth Banquet was extremely boring until the end.
Instead, it was better for each family to come out on their own and take a boat ride on the river.
Xiao Baoxin still let himself go with his big belly, and the entire Xie family came out in full force.
The old man couldn’t climb high, so he got on a boat and went to Yansheng Lake for half a day. Because the elders of the various families were present, Langjun and Lil ‘Miss gathered together.
Xiao Baoxin’s three-month-old belly was much bigger than the average person’s. It was like a huge basin, and he was like the moon surrounded by stars in the Xie family.
Across the boat, Xiao Baoxin could feel the deep malice from the Princess Consort of Huaiyang.
She was already used to it. Every time she was pregnant, her five senses would be extremely sensitive.
She was just a little curious as to why she had become enemies with the Wen family again. At least in her memory, Princess Consort Wen had always been kind to others. She did not like to be in the limelight and was extremely…Such a lowly person, but he was focused on pleasing the Prince of Huaiyang.
Could it be that the last time Xiao Baoshu exposed the ugly relationship between Prince Huaiyang and Yuan Chen in front of everyone, Consort Wen took the opportunity to hold this grudge against her?
It seemed that Consort Wen did not have any ill intentions in the palace last time. Her anger was directed at Yuan Chen.
Such a dough-like person made Yuan Chen feel ashamed.
