Chapter 1136 - The Position of Grand Preceptor
Chapter 1136: The Position of Grand Preceptor
Xie Qiao’s words were the truth, but Sang You was touched when he heard it.
Eldest senior sister was good-looking, and she was right about everything.
“Teacher said that Eldest Senior Sister is weak and sick, so she needs us to take care of her.” Sang You looked infatuated.
This look was really pleasing to the eye.
Her skin was fair and flawless, absolutely perfect…
Jiang Jinlu looked at Senior Brother Sang in disbelief and noticed the cold look on His Highness’ face. He hurriedly reminded Sang You, “Eldest Senior Sister and His Highness are really a match made in heaven. They are really a good match.”
“Yes, they are both born beautiful.” Sang You nodded.
Of course, the latter was naturally the better choice between a beautiful man and a beautiful woman. He liked beautiful women more.
Xie Pinggang coughed dryly. “What are your plans for the future?”
He thought that since she was already married, it would be inappropriate for her to deal with ghouls. If His Highness felt uncomfortable, his sister would definitely fall out of favor.
For now, it would be better to have a child as soon as possible…
However, Xie Qiao was afraid that the child would not survive.
She felt conflicted in her heart.
“I don’t have any plans. It’s fine just like this.” Xie Qiao braced herself and said, “Eldest Brother, look, there are no outsiders here…”
Halfway through her words, she looked at Ms. Cai.
“This Meng Jifang is an outsider, but Ms. Cai has possessed him now. He doesn’t know anything. The people around His Highness are all far away, except for Imperial Guard Zhou. They won’t ask any more questions. I’ll redo my makeup in a while. No one else will find out…” Xie Qiao added, “As long as you don’t say anything.”
“That won’t do. You have to ask His Highness what he wants. If I marry a wife who is out all day, I won’t be happy either.” Xie Pinggang was implying something.
Zhao Xuanjing did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Everyone said that Xie Pinggang was a martial artist who did not have any shrewdness.
In fact, this kid was more shrewd than anyone else. It was just hidden by his fierce appearance.
At this moment, how was he reminding Xie Qiao?
He was clearly testing her intentions.
The status of the Princess Consort was different from the others. Logically speaking, she should be dignified enough not to wander around like a Taoist master. If she agreed today, regardless of whether or not the status of the Princess Consort would be pointed out by others in the future, he had to bear the responsibility with Xie Qiao. He could not bully her and abandon her. He could not use the matter of the Taoist master to oppress Xie Qiao.
This kid was asking for a decree in advance.
However, the Xie family was small in number, and Xie Qiao only had two brothers. Xie Niushan’s reputation as a bandit was too great, and it was impossible for him to be placed in an important position in his life. At most, he could rely on Xie Qiao, the Princess Consort, or even the Empress. In the future, he could obtain a title of nobility.
The only person the Xie family could use was Xie Pinggang.
It was a good thing that he was smart.
“I married Mo Chusheng, also Xie Qiao. Although she is the Princess Consort, she is someone that I love. Whatever she wants to do, it’s up to her. I will help her,” Zhao Xuanjing thought for a while and said, “Also, I have another idea.”
Xie Qiao looked at him suspiciously.
“The current grand preceptor Peng Tianyin is already old. I intend to recommend Mo Chusheng to my father as the next grand preceptor,” Zhao Xuanjing said.
Xie Qiao’s heart skipped a beat. “Not yet. I’m not capable enough at my age.”
That was the truth.
She was good at fortune-telling and soul-catching, but she was not proficient in other things. She still had to focus on learning more.
Just like yesterday, if it was her teacher, Mo Lingzi, she would be able to tell the difference even if it was obscure.
She was confident enough in herself, but if she wanted to become the grand preceptor, she would have to be more capable.
