The Crown Princess Has a Deadly Destiny
Chapter 10

He pursed his lips, looking like he had been persecuted, and no one knew what was on his mind.

Now that he was in such a miserable state, it had left the men of today looking at each other awkwardly, confused as to what they should do. The seductive face from before disappeared in an instant.

“I said I would read the luck of three people. There are still two left.” Xie Qiao calmed himself down as he continued.

Zhao Xuanjing found this woman quite attractive.

Especially when he was acting so pitiful. He looked a bit seductive at the time.

For some reason that he could not understand, he casually reached out and pushed his own imperial bodyguard aside.

He keeps reading luck.

“You have the appearance of someone who will help the emperor. But somehow this trait is not too prominent. There is only a slight tendency towards that look. This may be a hidden gift, but there will come a day where you will shine brightly.” Xie Qiao said briefly.

It is obvious that this man is quite rich. It was not enough for him to just say that he was rich and smart.

Just when Xie Qiao said this, the imperial bodyguard immediately turned around and looked at Zhao Xuanjing.

Zhao Xuanjing was slightly surprised.

“This is the last. I'll see if your trip will be smooth, okay?” Said Xie Qiao.

As he said this, Xie Qiao took out a turtle shell and three copper coins. “About, clang, clang.” He shook the coins. After a few rounds, he tapped his fingers and muttered while counting.

It seemed like he was scaring people with that action.

“You will not understand if I explore this topic.” After a while, Xie Qiao packed his things and said, “You guys are forbidden to leave the forest before 11am. Otherwise, misfortune will befall you all. ”

Zhao Xuanjing's eyes were dark. No one knows what he's thinking.

“Send him to court tomorrow morning.” His words rang, simple and clear.

It doesn't matter if he's accurate or not. It is too dangerous for a woman to be in the wild at ungodly times. He needs to be taught a lesson.

Xie Qiao was speechless as he raised an eyebrow.

This was definitely not the first time someone had threatened him to send him to court. He's not scared at all.

Since he will only be sent to court tomorrow, then he should rest well tonight. After digging the ground for so long, all of his limbs were aching now.

Xie Qiao was easily satisfied with what he had. He headed and curled up in a random corner in the tent. Soon she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Outside, the captain of the imperial guard looked at Qin Zhi and asked, “Do you want to write a letter home to ask this?”

“Bapak. Zhou, do you really believe this girl's words?” Qin Zhi laughed. “For so many years, have I not known my own father enough? Would it be more believable to say that I would die from falling into a river, but falling into a well? We've been in the wild all day lately. Where can we find the well?”

This girl was very young, but she lied like she was breathing. He didn't look half bad, but how could he declare himself to be half immortal?

“Don't you think .. that when he said about helping the emperor.” Imperial Guard Zhou lightly frowned.

“It sounds a bit scary.” Qin Zhi nodded. “But most likely because this girl has not seen the world. Just think. In our ranks, except for the young master, you are the most fearsome. Of course he will say pleasant words to flatter you.”

Now when he said it like that, it made a lot of sense. Zhao Xuanjing did not care if he spat on nonsense.

Seeing that Xie Qiao was young, he did not tie her up. After they send him to court tomorrow, he will study and become a good person. He will know that in the wild, there are many “predator” like him hiding out there.

The next morning, before sunrise, they got up and left. Xie Qiao did not stop them either. What will happen, will happen. It was not that he could rush to the person and hug his feet to stop him from taking another step.

This forest used to be quite large, but after they found the jade mine, it began to shrink bit by bit. It's just that this section has a slightly nicer view, but after the forest…

There are bare hills everywhere.

If their party wanted to advance, then they would have to pass through the mound in front which was that abandoned mine.

There were only patches of withered greenery, and the ground was covered in rocks. Hill after hill appeared one after another like rolling waves. Although it was not tempestuous, the scene remained melancholic to behold.
