Chapter 636: Lift Their Heads High Again
Thinking of this, Master Dong thought it was feasible, so he agreed.
However, the Dong family was not the only one who had come to inquire.
In the capital, there were actually quite a number of official families who wanted to inquire about Xie Pinggang’s intentions.
Xie Pinggang was very annoyed by this, so he simply told the steward to reject all those people directly.
The people sent by the Dong family did not even enter the house.
Dong Yiyun naturally did not receive any good news either. All that was left was disappointment.
Xie Qiao’s marriage was not completely concluded with an imperial edict.
None of the three letters and six etiquettes were missed. Even the Crown Prince had to choose an auspicious day to come and visit his future father-in-law. Of course, this visit was different from an ordinary family’s son-in-law meeting his father-in-law. Xie Niushan could not put on airs.
On the second day after the marriage decree was issued, a few female officials were sent to the family.
The main goal was to teach some palace rules and various titles of the royalty. It was very complicated.
However, Xie Qiao learned quickly, which was a relief.
She even went to the academy as usual and only allowed the female officials to quickly explain for an hour every day.
Initially, they were upset, but there was nothing that they could do since Xie Qiao learned fast. Naturally, they dared not stir trouble with the future Princess Consort, so they agreed obediently.
The atmosphere in the Orchid Courtyard where Xie Qiao was also changed.
The dignified Princess Consort came from the Orchid Courtyard and not the Peony Courtyard. This news undoubtedly made everyone failed to hold back their excitement once again.
The enthusiasm for learning was unprecedented. Master Lu could not stop smiling!
Xie Qiao felt that with the enthusiasm in learning, by the time the academy’s major examination was held in June, the Orchid Courtyard might really be able to suppress the Peony Courtyard!
She was afraid that she would not be able to study in the academy for long. She hoped that she could see Qin Liu and Fang Muxue lift their heads up high again!
As for the books in the academy…
Once she became the Princess Consort, she was not worried that she would not be able to read them in the future!
Zhao Xuanjing even had an exclusive residence in the academy. She could move in with him!
She could also openly enjoy the Yang energy!
However, the only thing that made her unhappy was…
The imperial edict had been issued, but Zhao Xuanjing was nowhere to be found!
Did he not agree with Mo Chusheng that he would ask her opinion even if the Emperor wanted to arrange a marriage?!
He did not!
Zhao Xuanjing did not come, and Xie Qiao did not look for him either. Her carefree days were limited now, so naturally she had to enjoy them. After changing into Mo Chusheng’s clothes, Xie Qiao walked around the streets of the capital. Perhaps she might meet a few “people” that she was fated to meet.
There were many ghouls, but she did not see any powerful ones.
Xie Qiao instructed them to queue at the Fortune Pavilion.
“Brother! There’s a sill under your feet! Be careful!
“Brother, are you moving the goods? Let me help you! Oh my, this thing is heavy! Let me help you!”
Xie Qiao sat by the street and saw a thin and weak figure running around.
When he saw that someone needed help, he ran over to help. Most of the time, they would only thank him. Occasionally, some generous people would reward him with a few copper coins.
There were many people who worked as hard as him, but this person was different. Something was wrong with his appearance.
Xie Qiao suspected that this person was the same as her. Both of them had disguised themselves. That voice… Although she deliberately lowered her voice, she could still hear the sharp pitch of a woman.
It was a woman disguised as a man.
Xie Qiao observed carefully.
Her clothes were dusty, and her shoes were worn out. However, her eyes were full of vigor. She was different from many people that Xie Qiao had met before, and her interest was instantly piqued.
