After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official

Chapter 226 I can’t help myself

As soon as the imperial edict came out, Master Xie almost fainted and hurriedly ran to find Old Madam Huo to plead for mercy.

He thought his good days had just begun, but who would have thought that they were already over.

"Mother, you watched Miaorong grow up, you can't just watch her go to the imperial mausoleum and waste her life!"

He thought clearly that since Prince Heng was having an affair and the two had not yet had their wedding night, although Xie Miaorong's reputation was completely ruined, even if she could not become the legitimate wife of a famous family in the future, she could at least be a second wife or a concubine, which was always more useful than going to the imperial mausoleum.

Although Mrs. Huo was annoyed with Xie Miaorong, she was her own granddaughter after all, so how could she not feel sorry for her?

"I have asked someone to send her some money from my own pocket. I will not let her go hungry or cold."

However, Master Xie Er still said dissatisfiedly: "Mother, Miaorong is spoiled and can't stand the misery of the imperial mausoleum. Why don't you ask His Majesty for mercy and let Miaorong return home!"

Mrs. Huo looked at Mr. Xie steadily and suddenly sneered, "Now you feel sorry for Miaorong? But wasn't this the destination you personally chose for her?"

"I... I didn't know Prince Heng was so absurd at that time." Second Master Xie felt uneasy and his voice became smaller and smaller.

"No matter what the situation is, Prince Heng is still your Majesty's biological son. It is not our turn to despise him as a minister!

Husband and wife share honor and disgrace, are you only allowed to follow King Heng and enjoy honor? Now that he has fallen from grace, are you going to abandon him?"

Your Majesty is magnanimous. If she were to risk her dignity to plead for mercy, His Majesty might agree.

But in the future, all the children of the Xie family will be branded as ungrateful and flattering the powerful and bullying the weak. She is not just Xie Miaorong's grandmother, she also has to take care of the entire Xie family.

Mrs. Huo looked at Mr. Xie coldly, "As a descendant of the Yongchang Marquisate, don't think about taking shortcuts all day long. Instead of thinking about these things, you'd better do your job well. There will always be a day when you will stand out."

It is nice to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade, but if the tree falls one day, the first person to die will be the person under the tree!

After being scolded, the second master Xie left dejectedly. Before Xie Miaorong could wait for a chance to change, she was dragged and squeezed into the carriage by the palace servants.

She couldn't believe that this would be her ending. If she had known this would happen, she would have listened to her grandmother and married someone of equal status.

She covered her face and cried. The wind lifted a corner of the car curtain and she saw a familiar figure on the street.

She quickly lifted the curtain of the car. Jiang Fengqi was taking a few little girls to buy candy figures.

She was wearing a plain dress without any makeup, but her whole body was gleaming. There was a smile in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, and she was even more dazzling than Jiang Fengqi in the past.

At this moment, Xie Miaorong suddenly understood Jiang Fengqi's choice. Although he seemed to be in a high position with great power, in fact, everything could be changed in a blink of an eye. Their lives were not under their control at all, but Jiang Fengqi had his own life.

At this moment, Xie Miaorong was filled with mixed feelings. She regretted her decision and felt how ridiculous and pathetic she was for ridiculing Jiang Fengqi that day.

"Feng Qi, what are you looking at?"

Jiang Fengqi smiled and shook his head, "Nothing, I just felt like someone was looking at me just now."

Gu Jin chuckled and said, "A beauty like you who looks like a fairy would be worth a second look!"

"You're teasing me again. You're so old but you're still so unserious." Jiang Fengqi glared at her and said coquettishly.

Gu Jin smiled, "Okay, okay, then I won't be annoying anymore. I'll go treat Aunt Zhao's eyes and I'll be back soon."

In the small courtyard, Gu Jin removed the layers of gauze wrapped around Zhao Su'e's eyes.

The glaring light made it difficult for her to open her eyes.

"Mom! Can you see me?" Huo Sichen leaned closer and almost put his face against Zhao Su'e's.

"It's still a little blurry." She could vaguely see the general outline of the person, but couldn't make out his exact face.

She shifted her gaze to look at Gu Jin who was sitting next to her. She looked like a very dignified and bright beauty. She had an indescribable noble temperament just sitting there quietly.

The figure looked strangely familiar, but it was a pity that she couldn't see the facial features clearly.

Gu Jin took out the eye drops from the ring, applied the medicine, and then re-bandaged her.

"Sister, when will my mother's eyes be healed?"

Gu Jin looked at him with a smile, "Next time."

"Really! That's great!" Huo Sichen threw himself on Zhao Su'e and smiled with tears in his eyes, "Mom, your eyes are finally going to heal.

In the future, I will take you to see famous rivers and waterfalls, to see flowers and stars, and I will take you to many places to see all the beautiful scenery in the world."

Zhao Su'e touched Huo Sichen's head lovingly and said with a satisfied smile: "Okay, then mother will wait until you grow up."

Gu Jin couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips as she looked at the happy scene of mother and son. It was precisely because she had never experienced family love in her previous life that she felt more and more how lucky it was to have parents around her.

But she didn't expect that the beauty before her eyes was so short-lived and fragile, and when they met again, everything was in pieces and people had changed...
