Chapter 123 Love Rival? Urgent!
That's naturally... impossible!
Zhang said angrily, "How can you tell her about this?"
If Jiaojiao knew that she had suffered such a humiliation, she would not be able to survive. Not only could she not tell Jiaojiao about this, she even had to keep it hidden.
Don't let anyone find out.
As for Xie Yao...
A murderous intent flashed in Zhang's slightly lowered eyes.
But her excitement was somewhat calmed down. Zhang covered her chest and said with grief, "Jiaojiao is your biological sister!"
"It seems that Madam Xie has forgotten my previous reminder." Xie Yao sighed and shook her head slightly.
Zhang was slightly stiff, but she knew she couldn't give in at this moment. She clenched the armrest tightly, "Don't forget, Crown Princess. You are not innocent either."
Her eyes swept across Xie Yao's abdomen meaningfully.
Although Song Wenbo did it, Zhang hated Xie Yao more at this moment.
Xie Yao sneered in her heart, Zhang really doesn't remember being beaten.
She interrupted Zhang directly, "Thank you, Madam."
"Perhaps I am too easy to talk to, so you misunderstood what I meant."
Xie Yao turned her head lazily, her originally indifferent eyebrows suddenly became sharp, and her voice was cold, "This palace... is warning you to be more obedient."
"As for my affairs, you can talk about it." Xie Yao said indifferently: "Let's see who dies first."
Zhang's body stiffened slightly.
For this kind of thing, she only dared to threaten Xie Yao, and naturally did not dare to make it public.
If she spreads this matter...she will be the first to die.
Even if this were true, the royal family would never admit it.
The reputation of the royal family must not be tarnished.
Xiao Hong had to be punished because the incident in Nanzhou caused such a big fuss.
Xie Yao chuckled, "If you don't dare, just be good."
"Mrs. Xie, do you understand?"
Zhang opened her mouth, but was speechless for a moment. Xie Yao... was so calculating.
"Hmm?" Xie Yao raised her eyebrows, "Or, Mrs. Xie wants Xie Yujiao to know..."
"No, no!" Zhang suddenly reacted and nodded repeatedly, "I know, I know, I know..."
There was no need for Xie Yao to ask anyone to see the guest off; she just stood up and walked out.
The figure from behind seemed a little anxious, as if someone was chasing him.
"Crown Princess." Zhu Qing whispered, "I hope Madam Xie can stay quiet for a while this time."
Last time he was so shameless as to threaten her Crown Princess... He really doesn't know what he's talking about.
Xie Yao said casually: "If she wants to die, I won't stop her."
Zhu Qing thought for a moment and then said, "After being tortured by Zhang, those people were chopped into pieces and sent to a mass grave."
"But... there are only seven of us."
Um?
Zhang would never tell Xie Yujiao about this kind of scandal in her life. Now that it had to be dealt with, it should be dealt with now.
One missing?
Xie Yao raised her eyebrows slightly, "This is interesting."
Before Xie Yao could figure out how to send the clothes to Xiao Ji, she received an invitation from the Zhao family.
In August, Zhao Hao took the imperial examination, but he did not celebrate when he passed.
Now that Zhao Ying has returned from his business trip abroad, a family dinner was held to celebrate.
Xie Yao readily agreed and went to the study with the note.
Xiao Ji is not here, he must have gone out.
But everything in the study remained unchanged, including Xiao Ji's habits and the casual modifications she had made during her daily visits some time ago.
She sat down at Xiao Ji's desk and picked up a book to read.
…
Zhenbeihou Mansion.
Although Pei Chen has always lived in the Princess's Mansion with Princess Yongle, he also has his own special mansion.
Pei Chen had just received good news and walked in with a smile on his face.
Seeing Xiao Ji sitting beside his desk, his smile suddenly faded, "Your Highness, this is the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion."
He comes here every day. Is it his home or His Highness's home?
Xiao Ji raised his eyes and glanced at him, "Do you have any objection?"
Pei Chen had a look of "dissatisfaction" on his face, but he said, "I dare not."
"Yeah." Xiao Ji nodded, "That's good."
Pei Chen: “…”
He stood there for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and took a jade box that was casually placed on the table next to him.
"Your Highness, please bring this to the Crown Princess..."
Before Pei Chen finished speaking, Xiao Ji frowned and looked at the person in front of him with a warning and cautious look.
Send something to his princess?
And ask him to do it for you?
What a courage!
Pei Chen felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, and he coughed and explained, "This is a thank you gift for troubling the Crown Princess to answer my questions last time."
When talking about their last private chat, Xiao Ji's lips were pursed into a straight line.
He opened the brocade box and saw a jade hairpin inside. The jade was transparent and it was obvious that it was worth a lot of money.
Xiao Ji's face turned dark!
He gritted his teeth and asked word by word: "Thank you?"
Those who know think it is a thank you gift, while those who don’t think it is a promise of love!
"Yeah." Pei Chen nodded, expressing sincere doubt, "Is it not possible?"
He asked his friends what kind of thank-you gift to a woman should be, and everyone said jewelry...
"I bought it at the Zhenyu Pavilion. The shopkeeper there recommended it to me..."
"I think the Zhenyu Pavilion is about to close." Xiao Ji closed the brocade box and handed the things to the "stupid" Pei Chen in a bad mood.
"Save this kind of thing for your beloved Miss Zhao!" Give it to his Crown Princess?
See if he doesn’t break Pei Chen’s legs!
"ah?"
Pei Chen went to the battlefield when he was thirteen years old, so he really didn't know these things. Although he still didn't understand, he knew it was probably inappropriate. His face turned red and he was at a loss, "Your Highness..."
Xiao Ji didn't want to listen to him.
So he interrupted Pei Chen and asked, "Have those people who used the arrows of the Zhenbei Army last time been caught?"
Pei Chen shook his head and nodded, "We haven't caught him yet, but we have some clues..."
"Hurry up." Xiao Ji said, "I think you are too idle."
Xiao Ji stood up and walked out, but stopped at the door and turned to look at Pei Chen, "You are not allowed to give this kind of thing to my Crown Princess."
He emphasized the words "my princess consort", and his intention to declare his sovereignty was very obvious.
After receiving Pei Chen's affirmative answer, Xiao Ji turned around and left again, heading straight for Zhenyu Pavilion.
When Xiao Ji returned to the Prince's Mansion, he went to the main courtyard first, but there was no one there.
Then he rushed to the study.
The afterglow of the setting sun poured in through the window, dyeing the whole world golden, and Xie Yao sat in the afterglow.
Hearing the footsteps, she raised her eyes and smiled at him, then stood up and ran towards him...
"Your Highness."
Xie Yao ran into Xiao Ji's arms and hooked her arms around his waist.
Xiao Ji instantly felt his heart filled.
All the unhappiness disappeared.
It was just a birthday. He had never loved anyone, and no one cared.
His Crown Princess just forgot...
Just as he was thinking, he heard Xie Yao gasp, and her moist eyes were instantly filled with tears, "Your Highness... it hurts."
