The Crown Princess Has a Deadly Destiny
Chapter 15
“Truly embarrassing.”
But Qin Zhi could not say it. When she started to watch over this young lady earlier, she looked at Miss Xie with disdain for her extremely slow pace.
Moreover, he really thought it was impossible.
How could he not be his father's son? Her father loved her very much.
But he could not say that the young master was stupid and had been deceived. So he shook his head strongly.
“No, wait and see, I'm sure I'll be fine. At that time, young master will know how great this beautiful woman is in deceiving people.” He believed in his father! He looks so much like his father!
The Zhou Imperial Guards were so angry that he decided to ignore Qin Zhi. He rushed after Miss Xie.
“Nona Xie.. ” She called him twice, but Miss Xie did not look back. Imperial Guard Zhou anxiously called out to him again, “Grand Immortal, wait for me.”
Xie Qiao turned around.
“What's the problem?”
“…”
The brows of the Zhou Imperial Guards were raised, and he immediately said, “This is about my friend, Qin Zhi, the person whose fortune was read by you yesterday. Can you help her? He was young, and his wife was. If something bad happens to her, her whole family will have a hard time.”
Xie Qiao stared elsewhere.
It just so happened that he saw Madam Lu's pouting face. There was something on his mind, and he didn't want to say more. He pulled out a safety talisman.
“Begging him to be this close to his body. He could hold it for a while, but not for the rest of his life. Different situation. If he does not solve the fundamental problem, sooner or later he will have to face death.”
“Yes, yes, I will persuade him,” said Imperial Guard Zhou immediately.
‘I'd rather believe it's true than the other way around.’
Regardless of whether this girl was a fraud or immortal, it was better to seek peace of mind first.
The Zhou Imperial Guards knew the rules. He had to pay for the prophecy. He paid about twenty copper coins.
As soon as he delivered the goods, Xie Qiao went to look for Madam Lu and her daughter.
Aside from having a large rooster by his side, he also carried a large bamboo box on his back and held a pack in his hand. His attitude made him look like a refugee.
Madam Lu turned his head and glanced at her, and she instantly became furious.
“Had my luck been that bad today. Look at that woman! Everyone would think that I tortured him! He had a carriage to ride but chose to walk on both feet and sleep in the wilderness all night without caring for his own reputation. What if he gets you into trouble in the future?! ” Lady Lu grunted furiously.
He lost his money today! He felt very angry.
“Mother, don't say that. She will be my oldest sister in the future. If you are too fierce, others will think you love me and hate him.” Pei Wanyue hurriedly calmed Madam Lu down. “We are losing a lot of money now. I'm afraid it's not easy to explain after we get back.”.
Madam Lu's face became increasingly pale. It is so much more than just losing money.
When they came out early in the morning, they immediately went to the market selling jade. They never expected to lose their wallet after going around the market and buying two small stones. The purse contained two hundred silver banknotes, along with a small pendant.
The jade pendant was given by her husband, who asked someone to send it. There were originally two pendants, one for his daughter and the other for Xie Qiao.
The little jade pendant meant for Xie Qiao looked like white jade. It had been carved into the shape of a Pixiu, a mythical animal with two horns and wings. He didn't know what that implied meaning was.
The locket wasn't big, but it looked quite expensive.
The pendant given to her daughter was just as good, and it was ivory white.
The carvings on it were simple little peaches, which were incomparable to those given to Xie Qiao. It made him even more furious as he started making comparisons.
He thought about keeping the locket for a few days. When she arrived at the imperial city, she would say that she kept it for this girl and would return it on the spot only if her husband mentioned it. But if he doesn't mention it…
Then he'll keep it.
‘Who knows that it has been stolen!’
