Without saying a word, He Zheng leaned over, reached his hand through Xie Qingyao's knees, and picked her up sideways.
He didn't even look at the people around him and left the Dengxian Tower.
Everyone around him lowered their heads and no one dared to look him in the eye.
After He Zheng walked away with Xie Qingyao in his arms, everyone started talking at once.
"Everyone says that the Marquis of Anguo has a cold temperament, but he is clearly very considerate to his wife."
"Could it be that this is done for the Xie clan to see?"
"The Marquis of Anguo is so powerful that he can turn clouds into rain with a flip of his hand. There's no need for drama."
Xie Linqian felt complicated for a moment.
In the past, he probably would not want his daughter to marry the Marquis of Anguo, as he was a cunning and unpredictable man. But today, it seems that he has different ideas.
Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could not be as confident as Marquis Anguo, who was indifferent to the power of the Xie family and bluntly said that he did not need them at all.
Since he doesn't want the family behind his daughter, nor her money, he simply likes her as a person.
Thinking about it this way, there is indeed no one in the world who is more suitable for Qingyao than Marquis Anguo.
He was weak and unable to protect her.
Marquis Anguo is just the right person, with profound power and strong tactics, enough to protect her.
He Zheng carried Xie Qingyao onto the carriage, held her head with one hand, and gently stroked her chin with his thumb.
"Drunk?"
Xie Qingyao's face flushed slightly, and her half-closed eyes slowly opened, "Yes, yes, I'm a little drunk."
She smiled happily and pretended to snuggle into his arms.
He Zheng's cold brows softened, and he supported her waist with his big hands, letting her sit on his lap.
Xie Qingyao played with the black jade on his waist and muttered, "Those rumors in Shangjing City must have been caused by Concubine Li."
He Zheng opened his thin lips slightly, "Well, what does Yaoyao want? Should we teach her a lesson?"
Xie Qingyao's face flushed and she nodded happily, "Yes!"
"We must...fight fire with fire."
Xie Qingyao suddenly raised her head and bit his face.
"..." He Zheng's body stiffened noticeably, his Adam's apple rolled, and he raised his hand to twist her chin.
"Yaoyao, don't bite randomly."
His voice was slightly deep and hoarse.
"What's wrong?" Xie Qingyao wiped his face with her sleeve. "Are you worried that going to court with the teeth marks on your face will affect your dignity as the Marquis?"
"By then, all the civil and military officials in the court will know that the Marquis has a fierce wife..."
He Zheng stared at her somewhat mischievous face, grabbed her wrist and pressed it somewhere.
"Yaoyao bites me...it hurts."
Xie Qingyao stared at him blankly until she felt something strange under her palm.
He immediately withdrew his hand, "You!"
My heart was trembling and I sobered up a little.
But his face became even redder, like a boiled shrimp.
A dark light flashed across He Zheng's eyes.
Xie Qingyao turned around and tried to break free from his arms, leaning against the other side of the car wall.
He Zheng leaned over and pulled her back into his arms, held the back of her head, and kissed her lips.
"Mmm." Xie Qingyao couldn't move, her watery eyes widened.
He kissed her fiercely and violently, as if he wanted to tear her apart and eat her.
The two people's auras were entangled together.
After kissing for a while, He Zheng rubbed the corner of her mouth with his fingertips, "Now Yaoyao knows the consequences of biting."
When Xie Qingyao heard this, she glared at him with red eyes. She still hadn't recovered.
For a moment, she turned her head away and didn't look at him.
At this time, He Zheng took out a small brown box and opened it with a "click". Inside was a red jade earring, only one.
Xie Qingyao's attention was immediately drawn to her and she leaned over. "Where did the earrings come from?"
He Zheng said calmly, "Your father gave it to me. It's useful against Li Qianluan."
"Click", he closed the box.
…
Concubine Li fell ill again, and this time she vomited blood. She was bedridden and looked haggard.
How could I not be angry when I suddenly found out that Jiang Qingyao was actually Xie Linqian's biological daughter?!
No, now her name is Xie Qingyao, and she has become the daughter of the Xie family, which is so glorious.
The rumors she painstakingly spread not only did not harm Xie Qingyao, but also attracted the attention of everyone in the capital. Now everyone knew that Xie Qingyao was the daughter of the head of the Xie family.
She is definitely a favored daughter of heaven and a daughter of a prominent family.
“Damn it!”
"To oppose me."
Concubine Li pounded the bed in anger, making it pound loudly.
The nanny came over hurriedly, "Your Majesty, Concubine Qi is here to visit you."
Concubine Li frowned, then found it funny. She calmed down and said, "Let her in."
Concubine Qi was originally just a minor noble lady, insignificant in appearance.
It happened that Concubine Qiao died unexpectedly, leaving one vacancy among the four concubines. Concubine Qi, who came from an ordinary family, became pregnant. With the help of the child in her belly, she became one of the four concubines and became the current Concubine Qi.
What a lucky guy!
Concubine Qi came over gracefully and said, "Sister Concubine Li, I heard you were ill. This is the nourishing soup I made myself. Try it, maybe it will make you feel better."
She had a pair of autumn eyes, bright and watery, and her complexion was gorgeous, like Concubine Li when she was young.
Concubine Li's heart sank.
Concubine Qi is somewhat similar to her, but much younger than her!
Her skin is so white and flawless, so tight, no matter how hard she takes care of it, it still cannot resist the aging process.
Concubine Li felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
The corners of her lips raised greatly, "You're too polite, sister. Put it aside for now. I'll try it later."
Concubine Qi pursed her lips and said, "I've only been in this palace for a short time, and I haven't made any close friends. But I felt a strong connection with Concubine Li from the moment I met her. I feel a special affinity with her. Could Wanying come and visit me more often in the future?"
