Long Live the Empress

Chapter 114 Xu's Position

Xu Xinghuai had been waiting impatiently in the government hall. Whenever he went out these days, he could hear people talking about how shameless Yue Jinghao was. Just yesterday, the prince broke off the engagement with Yue Jinghao, which was a great shame for a woman! So he asked Xu Lingcan to send an invitation to Yue Jinghao, wanting those people to see the position of their Xu Mansion!

The two brothers of the Xu family were also waiting in the hall, especially Xu Zhanbo. Whenever he thought of Yue Jinghao's current situation, he wanted to kill those who were gossiping about her.

"Father, Sister Jing is here!" Xu Lingcan shouted happily before he even entered the door.

The three people in the mansion hall quickly looked towards the door and saw Yue Jinghao wearing a goose yellow brocade pleated skirt, with a low-key bun, and a little makeup on her face, looking cool and elegant.

"Jing'er greets Uncle Xu~, and greets two brothers~" Yue Jinghao bowed slightly to the three of them.

Xu Xinghuai quickly asked Yue Jinghao to sit down, "Don't be polite in the future, it seems awkward!"

Yue Jinghao smiled slightly and said, "This is not a strange thing. It is the courtesy that Jing'er should follow as a junior!"

Xu Xinghuai looked at Yue Jinghao, who was chatting and laughing, and seemed not to be affected by the broken engagement, so he felt relieved. "Jing'er, have you been okay this month?"

Yue Jinghao covered her lips and smiled, "Uncle Xu, just look at Jing'er's size and you will know!"

Xu Zhanbo secretly glanced at Yue Jinghao and found that she had grown a lot taller than a month ago and had some flesh on her face.

Xu Xinghuai was a smart man. He knew what his eldest son was thinking when he saw his appearance! "I feel relieved to see that you are fine!"

Yue Jing understood Xu Xinghuai's meaning very well. This kind of warmth was something she had never felt before or in this life. "Jing'er has never seen Uncle Xu's skills. Can you let Jing'er see his vision today?"

There is no general who is not proud of his kung fu! Xu Xinghuai was even more proud. When he heard Yue Jing wanted to see him practice martial arts, he wanted to show off his skills. Just as he was about to stand up, he heard his second son Xu Zhanqi cough. Xu Xinghuai immediately understood what he meant and rubbed his lower back, "Hey, I hurt my waist recently and it hurts a lot. Let Zhanbo show off a few moves!"

When Yue Jinghao heard that Xu Xinghuai was injured, she became a little nervous, "Have you asked a doctor to come and see him?"

Xu Xinghuai was lying in the first place, and at this moment, facing Yue Jinghao's questioning, he could only nod randomly, "I've seen it, I've seen it, it's okay! Zhanbo, go out and show us your skills!"

When Xu Zhanbo heard his father call his name, he glanced at Yue Jinghao again and felt inexplicably nervous. "Yes!"

The courtyard was filled with weapons, so Xu Zhanbo picked out a spear and started practicing.

Everyone says that men who practice martial arts are the most attractive, and men who wield spears are even more free and easy.

Yue Jinghao watched Xu Zhanbo's movements as smooth as flowing water, and she recalled the scene in her previous life when the entire Xu family was beheaded. All she saw was blood...

Xu Xinghuai was extremely happy as he looked at Yue Jinghao who was in a trance. In the past, Yue Jinghao was engaged to the prince and he could not do anything about it. But now their engagement was cancelled, and his sons were so outstanding, one was good at literature and the other at martial arts, one was active and the other was quiet... they were such a perfect match!

Just as Xu Zhanbo was finishing his move and before he could say a word to Yue Jinghao, a servant came to report: "Master, someone is here to see Miss Yue."

Yue Jinghao was confused, wondering who was looking for her, when she saw Wang Yi coming in. "Greetings, Lord Xu."

Xu Xinghuai knew Wang Yi, "I wonder if Guard Wang is really too rude to welcome you here. What instructions does the Ninth Prince have?"

Wang Yi bowed and said, "It's the Ninth Prince who wants to discuss something important with Miss Yue."

Xu Xinghuai was slightly stunned. What did Jiu Qiansui want to do with Yue Jinghao? "Did Jing'er offend Jiu Qiansui?"

Without waiting for Wang Yi to answer, Yue Jinghao spoke up, "No, Uncle Xu, don't worry! Since the Ninth Thousand Years Old said it's important, Jing'er will take her leave!"

Wang Yi curled his lips in his heart. What did Xu Xinghuai call Miss Yue? Jing'er? Miss Yue is so smart, can't she see the intentions of the Xu family?

Seeing that Yue Jinghao had said this, Xu Xinghuai didn't want to keep her anymore. He gave Yue Jing a few more instructions and asked Xu Lingcan to send her out.
