Chapter 107: I'm Willing to Do Anything for Your Highness
"yes."
A deep and hoarse voice sounded in front of him.
Xie Yao raised her eyes and met those dark and deep eyes, which seemed to suck her in like a whirlpool.
His Highness...he admitted it?
"Yaoyao." Xiao Ji approached Xie Yao, looking a little aggrieved, "You don't trust me like this."
Xie Yao felt guilty for a moment, but soon realized that she had been led astray by His Highness.
She said, "He..." He doesn't have that brain.
But before she could finish her words, Xiao Ji covered her lips.
They all say they are jealous.
And mentioned other men in front of him.
It should be punished.
"Your Highness, the Crown Princess."
At this moment, a maid's voice came from the courtyard, "Miss Xie jumped into the lake!"
The daughters of other families all left, but Xie Yuru did not leave.
Xiao Ji directly ordered Si Nan to lead people to send her back, but he didn't expect that such a thing would happen!
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji looked at each other, then immediately stood up and walked out. "How is the person?"
After all, she is Xie's daughter. If something really happened in the Prince's Mansion, then...
"We were all there when the Third Miss jumped into the lake. She is fine, but she insisted on seeing His Highness and the Crown Princess."
Xie Yuru lived in the guest house of the prince's mansion.
When Xie Yao arrived, she heard a sharp shout from inside, "Xie Yao, I want to see Xie Yao!"
Xie Yao stepped into the room.
Xie Yuru immediately looked over with hatred and hostility, "Xie Yao, you want to send me away? No way!"
She had become accustomed to the wealth of the Prince's Mansion in recent days, so how could she be willing to leave just like that?
"We are all our father's daughters. Why can you be the Crown Princess?" It is obvious that she is the daughter his father loves the most!
Xie Yao signaled everyone in the room to go out.
Then she said, "It was Zhang who asked you to come to the Prince's Mansion, right?" Her words were not a question, but a firm statement.
Just as Xie Yuru was about to retort, she heard Xie Yao continue, "When you arrived at the Xie family, people kept telling you how great and wealthy the Prince's Mansion is..."
Xie Yuru's rebuttal was stuck in her throat. After thinking about it carefully...it was true.
Xie Yao chuckled, "Did you know that the one who was originally going to marry into the Prince's Mansion was Xie Yujiao? She is Zhang's biological daughter."
"But three days before the wedding, she was determined to remarry, and Zhang actually agreed. Guess why?"
Xie Yuru's expression kept changing.
The matter of the marriage exchange...she knew that it was a hot topic in the capital at that time.
"What do you mean?" Xie Yuru looked at Xie Yao with a defensive and suspicious look.
Xie Yao did not answer but asked: "You don't really think that Zhang doesn't know the identities of you and Xie Jing?"
Xie Yao stopped talking and stood up to walk out, "Someone, send Miss Xie back to the Xie family."
"If Miss Third doesn't cooperate, just tie her up and send her back."
Is she still afraid of Xie Yuru?
I said these words just now because I was annoyed by Xie Yuru, so I just wanted to provoke her.
Xie Yuru was tied up tightly, stuffed into a carriage, and sent back to the Xie family overnight. Zhu Qing personally sent her there.
"Please help me tell Madam Zhang a message." Xie Yao ordered, "If you have time to stare at me, you might as well pay more attention to her daughter."
She knows more about Xie Yujiao's situation than Mrs. Zhang.
After sending everyone away, Xie Yao felt that the air in the Prince's Mansion was much fresher.
Xiao Ning was stripped of his title, and the case of corruption and epidemic in Nanzhou will be handled by the three departments in the future.
At Xiao Ji's suggestion, it was not handled too cleanly.
Xiao Ning wanted to intervene, but the emperor warned her so she had to give up and stop for the time being.
The capital city calmed down for a while.
It was a hot summer day. Perhaps because of her pregnancy, Xie Yao was more afraid of heat than before. She seldom went out and stayed in the house with ice all day.
Xiao Ji's "study" was also moved to the main house.
He held a book in one hand and a folding fan in the other and gently fanned Xie Yao.
The breeze blew Xie Yao's hair, and the unique body fragrance of Xie Yao flowed into Xiao Ji's nose.
Fortunately, after three months of Xie Yao's pregnancy, Xiao Ji's morning sickness eased a lot and he was not feeling uncomfortable at the moment.
"I heard that Concubine Li has been released from house arrest?"
Because of the Wanshou Festival, Xie Yao was also able to learn some news from the palace. "Wasn't Father very angry during the last Wanshou Festival?"
Xiao Ji continued to fan Xie Yao, and with his other hand he put down the book, put his arm around her round and slender shoulders and said, "As expected."
After all, she is the one who has been with the emperor for many years. If she didn't have any sincerity towards him, how could she have been favored for so many years?
Besides...
"Your Majesty only knows that Concubine Li and the Imperial Preceptor are old acquaintances. To him, perhaps only the Imperial Preceptor has a problem with my fortune-telling."
For the emperor.
This son who had been disliked for many years and who in his heart "killed his first wife" was really not as good as Concubine Li who had been doted on for many years.
Xiao Ji lowered his eyes slightly, his cold voice full of sarcasm, "He is unreliable."
Times have changed.
His mother had passed away for more than 20 years. Although the emperor still showed deep affection, Xiao Ji didn't dare to believe it.
He did not dare to take a gamble and place his hopes of revenge on the emperor.
Besides, he hasn't found enough evidence yet.
Concubine Li has been in charge of the harem for many years, and what needed to be dealt with had already been dealt with. Even for him, it would be difficult to find any clues.
perhaps……
Xiao Ji thought of something and his eyes flashed slightly.
Xie Yao rested her head on Xiao Ji's shoulder, hugged him tightly with both hands, and said in a soft voice, "Your Highness, there are still me and the children."
That's right.
Some time ago, the court doctor checked Xie Yao's pulse and told them a very accurate piece of news.
The Crown Princess is pregnant with twins!
Hearing this, Xiao Ji retracted his wandering thoughts and placed his hand on Xie Yao's bulging belly. "Yaoyao, thank you for your hard work."
Thanks to the Holy Eucharist, Xie Yao did not find the pregnancy difficult at all.
Moreover, both children are very well behaved. The pregnancy is not too severe now. Except for the slight increase in breast size and belly size, Xie Yao has not changed much in other aspects.
But she didn't say it.
She leaned in Xiao Ji's arms and said softly, "For Your Highness, I am willing."
Xiao Ji hugged Xie Yao tighter, as if he was hugging the whole world. He leaned on her shoulder, closed his eyes slightly, and whispered her name, "Yaoyao."
August 12.
The day of Xiao Ning and Hu Yanyuan’s wedding has arrived.
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji didn't go out often these days because of her pregnancy, but they had to attend Xiao Ning's wedding.
The place is in the princess's mansion.
When Xie Yao was helped out of the carriage by Xiao Ji, she felt eyes staring at her from all directions.
One of them was particularly sharp.
Xie Yao looked over——
It’s Xie Yuru!
Next to Xie Yuru... was Xie Yujiao, and the two of them were very intimate at the moment, like real sisters.
And the look in his eyes at this moment was filled with hatred and unconcealable jealousy.
Noticing her gaze, Xie Yujiao proudly stuck out her slightly bulging belly.
Seems to be showing off.
Xie Yao glanced at him and got off the carriage holding Xiao Ji's hand.
Zhu Qing followed and whispered, "Starting from this month, the second young lady will often return to the Xie family."
"But every time I go back, Master Song accompanies me."
Xie Yao didn't look away and walked towards the main hall, "Let's go, it's time to pay respects to my aunt."
The person she was talking about was naturally Princess Yongle.
But before she took a few steps, Xie Yao noticed another sight, and she turned her head to look -
Although it was only a fleeting moment, she was sure it was that person.
Xie Yao raised the corners of her lips slightly, "It's going to be exciting."
