Chapter 647: Full of Vitality
As soon as Xie Qiao said that, Zhao Xuanjing’s expression immediately became more serious. He immediately called Zhou Weizong and gathered his men to leave the city.
“As early as an hour ago, the people at the criminal division went out on a task. They also received news that the eldest daughter of the Hou family of Nan’an’s concubine was kidnapped in East City. In addition, there was also the second daughter of the Dong family. It matches the people you mentioned,” Zhao Xuanjing added.
However, the missing person case was not under the jurisdiction of the criminal division. The administrative office had already sent people to search for them.
However, now that Xie Qiao had come personally, it was fine for the administrative office to intervene in this matter.
Soon, all the people were gathered.
Although Xie Qiao could ride a horse, her body was not in good condition. She did not wish to go through bumpy roads, so she got Zhou Weizong lead the way.
Since they had already set off, it was futile to be anxious. Xie Qiao asked about the Crown Prince’s thoughts.
“I heard from Young Lady Xie that you haven’t seen her in the past few days? Why is that?” Xie Qiao was very direct.
When she asked this question, the corner of Zhao Xuanjing’s lips twitched.
H-He was accused by his fiancee personally. How should he respond?
“I’m afraid that Young Lady Xie will be shy when she sees me and wouldn’t dare to speak.” Zhao Xuanjing was full of nonsense.
“Hehe”, Xie Qiao sneered. “Could it be that Junior Brother feels regretful about the marriage? This sounds like an excuse.”
With that said, Zhao Xuanjing immediately said, “Senior Sister Mo isn’t an outsider, so I’ll tell you the truth. It’s true… that I haven’t had any thoughts of getting married all these years. Now that the marriage has been set, I’m a little confused. I don’t know how to treat Young Lady Xie to make her think that I’m a good man.”
He did not want her to think that…
He was only good-looking.
With that said, Xie Qiao looked at him in surprise. “So, you mean… it’s not Young Lady Xie who is shy, but you?”
Xie Qiao had Mo Chusheng’s disguise on at the moment, so she was thick-skinned enough.
Zhao Xuanjing smiled calmly. “Indeed.”
Xie Qiao pursed her lips and smiled. “Don’t worry, Junior Brother. Young Lady Xie is not a monster who eats people.”
Zhao Xuanjing glanced at her with a faint smile, then he shook his head silently.
Once she had this face in disguise, she really did not care about what she said. Was she not afraid that she would be exposed one day?
“Most women need to be coaxed. Your Highness should pay more attention. Otherwise, even if this girl gets married, it won’t be any different from a rock.” Xie Qiao looked like she had been through this before, “But don’t follow Xie Pinggang’s behavior of not caring about women. He’s destined to be alone throughout his life.”
“Junior Brother will definitely remember Senior Sister’s words.” Zhao Xuanjing was as obedient as if he was really her junior brother. “Senior Sister, do you know what Young Lady Xie Likes?”
“Silver?” Xie Qiao replied subconsciously. Then, she smiled awkwardly and made a move with an unfathomable expression. “Forget about worldly possession like silver. Women love flowers and plants.”
“I see.” Zhao Xuanjing acted very well. “That’s not bad. I heard that Young Lady Xie saved all of Mr. Sang’s flowers and plants in the Royal Academy. Ordinary people don’t have this ability.”
Xie Qiao raised her head slightly.
Of course.
How could ordinary people compare to a master’s capability?
“It’s nothing. She only knows a little.” Xie Qiao smiled.
She was in good spirits and talked a lot.
Zhao Xuanjing also thought Xie Qiao was full of vitality these few months.
Unlike when they met on the way to the capital, she was panting every three steps and coughing every five steps. She did not like to talk, worried that she would die if she spoke.
“There will be a palace banquet in a few days. She’ll be conferred the title of Princess Consort, so she’ll definitely go to the palace to thank the Emperor. I initially thought that I would go and take her there personally on that day. Now that I have met Senior Sister, I’ll have to trouble you to tell her that.”
