I'll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law Chapter 497

Chapter 497

Senior General Xu was worried when he thought about this, “King Dongdan and Ye Luyan are uncle and nephew, so they are not close to each other. I’m afraid Ye Luyan may not be restrained with just this.”

“The purpose of arresting Ye Luji was not to threaten him,” Xie Xuanchen didn’t care about the comparison and slowly twirled the wine in his gla.s.s, “The Empress Dowager Xiao loves her youngest son the most. I heard that the Empress Dowager Xiao even intended to let Ye Luji inherit the throne. If Ye Luji can’t make Ye Luyan scram, then Empress Dowager Xiao and the Emperor definitely could.”

After Xie Xuanchen finished speaking, he wanted to drink all the wine in the gla.s.s, but was stopped by a slender and soft hand midway. Mu Mingtang looked at him seriously and said, “You are injured, so you are not allowed to drink.”

Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang looked at each other for a moment before he put down his drink obediently. Everyone at the table was surprised when they saw this scene. Xie Xuanchen dared to break into the enemy camp of 20,000 people alone, dared to point a sword at the Emperor’s imperial envoy and yell out, but he actually obeyed the Princess in private?

Xie Xuanchen was calm about these looks. He never felt that his reputation needed to be proved by wine and found it nonsensical that being harsh to his wife in front of outsiders meant that he was capable. He wished he could let the whole world know that his beloved could not be messed with, not even by himself.

Xu Dalang and his Second Brother looked at each other and both felt that Princess Mu was probably a little more powerful than they thought. Xie Xuanchen was more than smitten with her at this point.

Senior General Xu and Senior Madam Xu pretended not to notice that youngsters nowadays were becoming less and less restrained. At the dinner table, they avoided court affairs and gradually talked about lighter topics. As everyone talked, they gradually realised that Xie Xuanchen was not doing anything while Mu Mingtang picked up food for him and asked him in a low voice as to what he wanted to eat. Mu Mingtang noticed everyone’s attention and explained,  “He was injured when he caught Ye Luji. His arms can’t hold heavy objects and it’s not convenient for him to pick up the food he wants. I’m worried that his wound won’t heal if he continues aggravating it, so I’ll do it.”

Xie Xuanchen stared at the people at the table with an unchanging expression, looking calm, as if the person who was injured and couldn’t lift chopsticks was really him. Senior General Xu felt that he couldn’t stand it even at his age. He thought that King Qiyang was just pretending to have some fun with the Princess yesterday and it would be over. But in the end, he was still keeping up the act today?

Xie Xuanchen pretended to be very calm, so the others could only cooperate. Xu Dalang looked at King Qiyang, who was so lively yesterday and could easily carry the bear-like Ye Luji with one hand, plummet to a state where he was weak to the point of being incapable of holding a pair of chopsticks.

Xie Xuanchen was famous for many years. They have all heard of Xie Xuanchen’s name as far away as they were in the north. After getting in touch with him in the past few days, everyone was sincerely convinced by Xie Xuanchen’s martial arts and courage. Everyone said privately that he was worthy of the name of the G.o.d of War and was actually a natural-born general who was born only once in a thousand years. In the end, they ended up seeing this side of Xie Xuanchen today.

Xu Dalang felt disillusioned and somewhat old at the same time.
