Chapter 197 Xie Yujiao is missing?
Xie Yao's birthday is in three days.
The next morning.
Xie Yao then ordered the arrangements, "Zhu Xin, the outer courtyard of the Prince's Mansion and even the banquet venue can be appropriately relaxed."
"But don't make it too obvious. You have to find the right balance yourself."
Zhuxin and Zhuqing have been with her since they were young, and she has been training them in the Prince's Mansion over the past year.
Now things are done very thoroughly.
Zhu Xin and Yu Yan were always in charge of the internal affairs of the Crown Prince's Mansion. At this moment, they responded, "Yes, Crown Princess."
Xie Yao looked at Lin Xia again, "Master Lin, I will leave Zhao Zhao and Sui Sui to you. They are of utmost importance and nothing can go wrong with them."
"Don't worry, Princess." Lin Xia also agreed.
Lin Xia and Zhu Xin stepped back.
Si Nan stepped forward and said, "Crown Princess, I received news from Si Xi early this morning that someone pretended to be a thief and attacked Lord Li Shuo last night."
"But he has solved it."
"He really can't wait." Xie Yao sighed, "It seems that Xiao Ning has doubted the authenticity of the national teacher."
So he was anxious to verify it, and he acted in a hurry without even caring about the fact that Li Shuo had just left the capital for one day and was still within the capital's sphere of influence.
Xie Yao looked at Xiao Ji, "Your Highness, this matter..."
Xiao Ji said: "I have a guess, today... I will go meet him again."
“…”
By the time Xie Yao had dealt with all the messages, the morning had passed.
Watch Sinan leave.
Xie Yao subconsciously turned her head to look at Xiao Ji...
Xiao Ji sat upright, looking at her with a smile, his eyes full of admiration.
His Crown Princess is simply amazing!
Xiao Ji's gaze was so straightforward that even Xie Yao felt a little embarrassed.
Her cheeks flushed, and her voice softened unconsciously, "Your Highness."
Xiao Ji stood up, poured a cup of tea for Xie Yao himself, and placed it beside Xie Yao with both hands, "Thank you for your hard work, Crown Princess. Please have some tea."
Xie Yao: “…”
She seemed, perhaps, to understand Xiao Ning a little bit.
Holding power, and with such a handsome man by her side...
Xie Yao took the teacup from Xiao Ji's hand, brushed her fingertips across his fingers, and said, "Well done."
"What reward do you want?"
"It is my honor to serve the Crown Princess." Xiao Ji looked ready to take whatever he wanted, and quickly said, "Tonight, Crown Princess..."
Xie Yao couldn't help laughing.
At this moment, the voice of the steward of the Crown Prince's Mansion sounded outside, "Your Highness, Crown Princess, Madam Xie requests to see you!"
Zhang?
She was here yesterday, why is she here again today?
Xie Yao frowned, "Did she say why she came?"
The steward said, "It is said to be... a matter of great urgency."
"Let her in." Xie Yao was already a little impatient with Zhang.
Zhang came very quickly and didn't even have time to check the situation in the study of the Crown Prince's Mansion. As soon as she entered the door, she said with red eyes: "Crown Princess, please give Jiaojiao back to me!"
Xie Yao's eyes darkened. "What do you mean, Madam?"
Zhang's voice was choked with sobs. "Crown Princess, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have schemed against you in order to find a support for Jiaojiao in the future."
"I shouldn't have thought of entrusting Jiaojiao to you, but Jiaojiao is innocent. She has no mind and knows nothing about anything."
"Crown Princess, this is my only life. Please give Jiaojiao back to me. I will never dare to have such random thoughts again..."
"Please, please."
Zhang cried and was about to kneel down.
Bang!
Xie Yao laughed angrily and slapped the desk, "Madam Zhang, you said these things as soon as you entered the Prince's Mansion...Are you spreading rumors and slandering me?"
"Let me ask you, what happened to Xie Yujiao?"
Xie Yao's aura was fully revealed, and the slap was loud and clear.
Zhang was so frightened that she even forgot to cry and said, "Jiaojiao is missing."
"I have always asked people to follow Jiaojiao, but this morning Jiaojiao...suddenly disappeared."
Xie Yao sneered, looking at Zhang with a terrifyingly cold gaze, "So, Madam Zhang thinks that this was my fault?"
Besides the Crown Princess, who else...
This thought flashed through Zhang's mind subconsciously, but she stopped halfway through.
Besides the Crown Princess, there are indeed people who are eyeing her Jiaojiao!
but……
Zhang couldn't help but look up at Xie Yao again, her eyes seemed to be asking: Is it really not you?
Xie Yao sneered.
How did she feel that Zhang was quite smart in the past?
Now it seems...
Clearly a fool!
Mother Liu, on the other hand, reacted more quickly and said, "Please understand, Crown Princess. Madam is too concerned and confused. Please forgive me, Crown Princess."
Zhang then spoke awkwardly, "Yes, I was anxious at the moment and misunderstood the Crown Princess... But Jiaojiao has been talking about the Crown Princess these past few days, so this is... this is my fault."
"Your Highness, I have another unwelcome request. I would like to ask you, Crown Princess... to help me find Jiaojiao."
Song Wenbo is now the director of the Imperial Observatory. If she goes there alone, Song Wenbo may not let her go.
Xie Yao was too lazy to pay attention to them and said, "Sinan, Zhuqing, take the guards from the Prince's Mansion and go to the Song family."
Zhang was overjoyed. She didn't expect that Xie Yao was willing to let the prince's personal guards help!
"Thank you, Princess. Thank you, Princess." Zhang thanked him twice perfunctorily and turned away quickly.
She was worried that if she went there too late, Jiaojiao would be bullied by Song Wenbo again.
Xie Yao looked at Zhang's back with coldness in her eyes.
Zhang...
Can't use it anymore!
Xiao Ji watched the whole process from the side and was very dissatisfied with Zhang's attitude. He frowned and said, "She must have been used to bullying you over the years."
Yaoyao has been the Crown Princess for more than a year, but Zhang still can't learn to respect her?
If Zhang wasn't inherently disrespectful, how could he dare to do this?
"Your Highness." Xie Yao explained, "I asked Zhu Qing to go to the Song family because I was afraid there might be some problems."
"I never believed that Xie Yujiao was really stupid."
Xie Yujiao is determined. No matter what happens, she will never blame herself. She will only resent others and put all the problems on others.
Would such a person become stupid just because he was humiliated by Song Wenbo?
Xiao Ji naturally understood.
As soon as Xie Yao gave the order, he understood what she meant, "The Crown Princess is wise and brave."
Sinan and Zhuqing came back quickly.
"Replying to the Crown Princess, Madam Song was indeed taken back to the Song family by Song Wenbo."
"When I arrived, Madam Song was tied up in the room, and Song Wenbo was whipping her with a whip in his hand."
Si Nan was quite disdainful of Song Wenbo in his words, "Song Wenbo is also cruel. He beat me so hard that I was sweating all over. The room smelled of blood..."
Not a man at all!
He actually hit a woman!
Xie Yao looked at Zhu Qing again.
Zhu Qing started from the moment she entered the Song family. "The servants of the Song family panicked when they saw us... Madam Zhang hugged Madam Song and started crying as soon as she entered the house."
"Mrs. Song hugged Mrs. Zhang and cried while shouting...Crown Princess."
"So it was really an accident?" Xie Yao raised her eyebrows.
"The servants of the Song family all said that it was indeed Lord Song who asked them to watch near the Xie family, and if they found Madam Song, they would bring her back to the Song family."
"Early this morning, Madam Song ran out of the Xie family's gate, calling her sister as she ran."
"She ran fast, and the maid behind her didn't catch up when she turned the corner. They took this opportunity to kidnap Madam Song."
Very reasonable.
But Xie Yao still felt that something was wrong because of her suspicion towards Xie Yujiao.
"We are keeping an eye on the Xie family. Didn't they say there is any problem?"
Zhu Qing shook his head, "They all said everything was normal."
Xie Yao couldn't figure it out, so she could only put the matter aside for the time being and asked Sinan and Zhuqing to do other things.
The two had just gone out.
Xie Yao fell into a warm embrace.
Xiao Ji was obviously not in a good mood, and his actions of hugging her were very gentle. He had already guessed about the Crown Princess's "past".
Hearing about how Xie Yujiao was treated by Song Wenbo, he was filled with anger!
He was too soft last time.
Xie Yao hugged Xiao Ji back, and then her body suddenly stiffened.
She suddenly raised her eyes, "Your Highness, I know what's wrong!"
