Chapter 97 Xie Yao, make a fool of yourself!
Xiao Ji was furious.
Xie Yao's simple words were like an electric current that ran from his coccyx to the top of his head, making his entire scalp tingle.
"Yaoyao."
His fiery eyes were full of desire. He bit Xie Yao's neck gently and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't make trouble."
This is on a carriage.
No matter how much he desired it, his first reaction was to restrain himself. Some things were harmless to him, but frivolous to Xie Yao.
Xie Yao took advantage of his cherishment and teased him unscrupulously.
Xiao Ji took a deep breath and said to the outside world: "Hurry up."
The carriage suddenly accelerated.
The turbulence of the car's rapid speed could conceal many noises. Xiao Ji's big hand with thin calluses reached in, brushing across her delicate skin, causing Xie Yao to shudder.
The carriage stopped quickly.
Xie Yao was carried back to the house by Xiao Ji.
Xiao Ji's cloak covered her dishevelled appearance tightly. She buried her head in Xiao Ji's chest, pretending to be asleep.
Blue sky and broad daylight.
The sun is shining outside, the breeze is warm, and the house is full of spring.
Xie Yao flirted with him, but when she saw the real Zhang, she wanted to back off. She held Xiao Ji's hand with both hands softly, "Your Highness, it's daytime..."
Xiao Ji hummed and said seriously, "Good day."
"See more clearly..."
As Xie Yao's mood rose and fell, there was only one thought in her mind: to cure His Highness. She was quite happy.
…
Just as Xiao Ji said, Xie Yao was very worried about Wei Chan's fate that day.
But there was no further news after that day.
Until the Wanshou Festival.
The whole country celebrates.
All officials above the fifth rank in the court are qualified to enter the palace to congratulate His Majesty.
Xie Yujiao was dressed in gorgeous clothes, looking very fancy. When she followed Song Wenbo into the palace, she looked very proud and proud.
In the previous life, Xie Yao was not qualified to attend the Wanshou Festival this time.
She knew that she was better than Xie Yao!
Xie Yujiao's eyes swept across all the powerful ladies today, with a hidden sense of satisfaction and pride in her heart.
These people don’t know that she will be the Prime Minister’s wife in the future!
After all the court officials and their families were seated, the princes and princesses entered the hall to the eunuchs' singing.
"Crown Prince, the Crown Princess is here!"
Xie Yujiao looked out along the crowd and saw a perfect couple walking together.
Xiao Ji was tall and wore a black dragon robe embroidered with gold thread, which made him look extremely noble.
Xie Yao was wearing a red dress embroidered with gold thread. The styles of their clothes were not much different. The gold thread seemed to flash as they walked. From a distance, the two of them looked very well matched.
Xiao Ji held Xie Yao's hand, and showed his protective attitude as he walked.
Xie Yujiao could clearly hear the low compliments from the people around her. She unconsciously clenched her hands into fists under her sleeves, not even feeling any pain when her fingertips pressed against her palms.
Thank you!
Damn Xie Yao!
Why can she attract everyone's attention just by appearing?
And Xiao Ji...
A superficial man with no vision who only looks at appearance.
You deserve to die early!
The resentment in Xie Yujiao's eyes was not concealed at all, and even her scheming could not hide it.
Xie Yao naturally noticed it.
Her eyes swept over Xie Yujiao, who had an unhappy expression on her face, and the corners of her lips rose slightly.
Damn damn damn!
Xie Yujiao felt that Xie Yao was provoking her, and she cursed out loud in her heart.
Why is Xie Yao so arrogant?
The prince is about to die. Let’s see how long she can remain so arrogant.
She wanted to see what would happen to Xie Yao after the prince died.
Thinking of this, Xie Yujiao finally felt better.
When she regained her senses, Xie Yujiao felt a burning and dangerous gaze on her. She followed the gaze and looked -
Wei Chan?
She snorted coldly and turned her head away.
Xiao Ji had just helped Xie Yao sit down when he saw Princess He Yi, who was sitting opposite them, approaching them with a glass of wine in her hand.
"Royal brother." Xiao Ning raised the wine glass in his hand, "I wonder what you think about the last incident?"
Even now, Xiao Ning is very confident.
Apart from her, Xiao Ji had no better choice, which was why she was not in a hurry these days.
She glanced suggestively in Xiao Hong's direction, "I'm afraid...some people can't wait."
At this moment, the eunuchs' singing could be heard again from outside the palace, "Your Majesty has arrived, Princess Yongle has arrived, Concubine Shu has arrived, Concubine Li has arrived—"
Everyone stood up and saluted.
Before Xiao Ning returned to her seat, she smiled and said to Xiao Ji, "Wait for good news from my brother."
Xiao Ji didn't have a single word to say. He used his wide sleeves to gently squeeze Xie Yao's hand, as if to reassure her.
Xie Yao also gently pinched his fingers, turned around and gave him a faint smile.
The appearance of Concubine Li was completely within her expectations. Having been the most favored concubine in the harem for many years, she must have some ability.
Zhu Qing had followed Xie Yao into the palace for such a long time and had made great progress. He whispered in Xie Yao's ear, "Early this morning, Concubine Li flew a kite she made in Weiyang Palace."
Xie Yao smiled and said it didn’t matter.
Old feelings are something that become less with each use.
After everyone arrived, it was time to give gifts.
The emperor said, "Whoever brings me the most delightful gift today, I will grant him one request."
Xiao Hong's heart was burning with anger, and he felt that his father's words were meant for him.
He had been preparing for this birthday gift for a long time. He was very sure about it and had even thought about what he wanted to ask for.
He asked for the marriage in public, spending so much time and effort on it, and he had done the most kind thing for Wei Chan!
He ignored Xiao Ji and stepped forward and said loudly: "I wish you a long life. I have specially found a rare Taihu stone to present to you as a birthday gift!"
Xiao Hong waved his hand and signaled his subordinates to deliver the Taihu stones.
Taihu stone is nothing rare, but this piece of Taihu stone looks like a real dragon!
Concubine Li smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Hong'er has been preparing for your birthday gift a year in advance."
The emperor was in a very good mood, "Hong'er is very thoughtful."
As expected, the third prince presented a painting he had drawn himself, and the fourth prince's gift was also ordinary.
However, it was the young fifth prince who wrote a birthday message that was not even neatly written and made the emperor smile.
"Father."
Next came the princesses, led by Xiao Ning, and everyone tacitly ignored the Crown Prince Xiao Ji.
Xie Yujiao watched this scene and finally calmed down.
In her previous life, she went to this birthday banquet alone and lost so much face. Now it’s Xie Yao’s turn to taste the same suffering that she had endured!
She spoke in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft but could be heard by everyone in the room, "Your Highness the Crown Prince has not presented the gift yet."
