Chapter 877 Can’t Beat
At the same time, Xie Shang and Jiang Fenghua dealt with the matter of Concubine Shu's injury and then met with Princess Kang Yueshi.
Xie Minmin and Xie Yun were also sent back to Princess Kang, who almost couldn't recognize her own children.
The two of them had suffered a lot in the past few months. When they saw Xie Shang and Jiang Fenghua, they no longer dared to be arrogant. They even hid behind Yue Shi, with four eyes staring at Xie Shang and Jiang Fenghua in front of them.
Yuezhi was furious to see that her two lively and cheerful children had become so timid.
The daughter was also a pretty young lady, and the son was a sunny young man. Now, their bodies are covered with bruises here and there, and their hands do not look like hands of people of their age. How much suffering must they have endured to become like this!
Yue Shi stared at King Kang coldly and said in a deep voice, "Bring Minmin and Yun'er back. How could they end up like this?"
Xie Kang had never expected that Xie Shang would punish them in this way. After all, they were members of the Xie family, and Xie Shang showed no mercy at all.
He also didn't know how to answer the Yuezhi.
Now Yueshi doesn't know about the existence of Concubine Chang and Shuyan. If she knew, who knows how she would make a fuss.
The Yuezhi tribe is the indigenous people of the northwest. He had his own agenda in marrying a Yuezhi woman. He needed the support of the Yuezhi people in the northwest so that it would be more convenient for him to be in the northwest.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yue Shi directly said to Xie Shang: "Why does the emperor treat them like this? They are also the emperor's brothers and sisters, but you make my daughter suffer so much."
Yueshi's eyes were red. She was a strong person, but she was soft-hearted towards her daughter and son.
Xie Shang didn't expect them to become like this. It seemed they had suffered a lot.
He said calmly, "Xie Yun committed a capital crime. Didn't Uncle Kang make it clear to Aunt Wang? I am only punishing them, which is already an extra mercy."
Of course Xie Kang said it, but he would never say that he wanted to seize the Xie family's kingdom.
The Yue clan didn't care about the rules of the Great Zhou. "Yun'er and Minmin grew up in the northwest. They have never been to Shengjing, and your royal family has never recognized their identities. What crime did they commit that you should behead them? You have no right to behead them. We, the Yue clan, have never left the northwest. We have lived there for generations. Your Majesty should know that your royal family and our Yue clan have nothing to do with each other."
Princess Kang meant that they were an indigenous ethnic group in the northwest and the royal family of the Great Zhou had no control over them.
Jiang Fenghua remembered that Xie Minmin often went to the Hengyang Palace to accompany the Empress Dowager. It was impossible for her to stay in the Hengyang Palace all the time. I'm afraid she has visited every corner of the Great Zhou!
Princess Kang's attitude made Xie Shang clench his fists slightly. At this time, the northwest border defense was closely related to the natives there, and he could not offend them.
He said, "Aunt Wang, some of your words are wrong. Uncle Kang is the prince of the Great Zhou. Although he has gone to live in the northwest, his identity and throne still exist. Since Aunt Wang married Uncle Wang, you belong to the Xie family, the Princess Kang, and your children are also descendants of the Xie family. No matter what mistakes they make, Minmin is still a princess, and Xie Yun is still a prince."
He never mentioned the fact that King Kang was banished to the northwest, and he had not even returned to Shengjing for decades.
No one can clearly explain the grudge between Xie Kang and the late emperor. The late emperor has already passed away. If one wants to get it clearly, perhaps the only way is to go to the underworld to ask.
After hearing this, Yuezhi wanted to retort that since Xie Kang went to the northwest, he was not a noble prince at all. He was supported by the Yuezhi clan, and Yuezhi also married her to Xie Kang.
Thinking of this, Yue Shi's attitude softened a little. She was attracted by Xie Kang's good looks back then. He was more handsome than all the men in the northwest.
She said: "Since the emperor regards Minmin and Yun'er as members of the Xie family, he should not torture them like this."
"Sister Wang, you have misunderstood. I am not torturing them. It is because Ayun stole a huge amount of disaster relief money. Because of his corruption, the people of Qingzhou are in dire straits. I can consider his young age and not bother with him."
Xie Shang never mentioned Xie Yun's plan to let the vassal state pass through the southern country. It would be a capital crime to tell others about his treason. He even wanted to disrupt Qingzhou and put the entire Great Zhou into a desperate situation. How could such a person be worthy of being a descendant of the Xie family?
Moreover, the envoys of the vassal state are also in Shengjing. If the true intentions of the vassal state are really revealed, it will be difficult for the two countries to get along well.
Yue Shi had already learned about this from Xie Kang. At this moment, she was speechless and asked, "But Minmin is a girl. Why do you treat her like this? What did you ask her to do?"
Xie Shang looked in the direction of Xie Minmin. She was no longer as arrogant as before. He didn't know what Mr. Gongsun asked her to do. She was indeed not as dignified as before.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yue Shi thought Xie Shang was in the wrong, so she said to Xie Minmin, "Minmin, tell me, what did they do to you? Don't be afraid, mother is here, and mother will take care of it for you."
When Xie Minmin thought of the grievances she had suffered during this period, her eyes couldn't stop tearing up and she burst into tears.
Seeing this, Yue Shi thought her daughter had been wronged, and hurried to comfort her: "Minmin, don't cry, mother will take care of it for you. Who has bullied you in front of the emperor?"
Yuezhi blinked and said, "In front of your cousin, he is the emperor and will definitely make the decision for you."
Xie Minmin cried out of grievance only when she was in front of her mother. Normally, she would not dare to cry no matter how hard or tired she was.
Jiang Fenghua looked at Xie Minmin calmly, thinking back to how she looked when she was in the Hengyang Palace, beside the Empress Dowager. She was indeed spoiled and noble. She also wanted to know how Xie Shang had punished her in the past few months.
In fact, Xie Shang didn’t know either, but if they were taken to the Shenyin Camp, they would definitely have to do all the hard work in the Shenyin Camp, such as digging the ground.
Xie Minmin cried and complained: "They made me dig the soil and plant vegetables every day, clean all the yards and houses, and wash clothes and dry them. They made my daughter wash a bunch of stinky men's clothes. They treated my daughter like a slave and bullied her."
Jiang Fenghua almost couldn't help laughing after hearing this. Isn't this just making her a maid?
Yue Shi was extremely distressed when she heard this. Her daughter had always been well-dressed and well-fed, with people serving her. She said, "You know martial arts, but you don't know how to resist!"
Xie Minmin added: "I can't beat him, wuwuwu..."
Xie Minmin's mediocre kung fu is no match for the people from the Hidden Camp.
Yuezhi was so upset that she asked again, "Does Yun'er also do these things?"
Xie Yun's face looked very unhappy. He no longer looked like a gentleman at this moment, and he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
What he did most was...
"Brother Yun was punished by them to carry manure." Whenever Xie Minmin thought of that smell, she wanted to stay away from her brother.
