Pei Wanyue’s face turned pale. After a moment, she shook her head.
“Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You’re lying to me, aren’t you? Xie Qiao is a short-lived person! Even the imperial physician checked her pulse and said that she wouldn’t live long, no? With such health, how could she become the Princess Consort?! How could the Emperor and Empress be willing?!”
As the Princess Consort, her health was not in good condition, so she definitely could not give birth!
She might just marry and die, and the Crown Prince would become a widower!
The royal family was not a fool, so how could they be willing to do this?!
That was the Crown Prince!
“The Crown Prince is in love with Young Lady Xie, and he wouldn’t marry if not for her. How could he mind such a small matter?” Wen Lancheng saw Pei Wanyue’s shocked and upset look and felt much better.
Young Lady Xie’s short life?
So what if it was short? If it was him, he would rather spend a year with Young Lady Xie and accompany her to her death than spend the rest of his life with a woman like Pei Wanyue. Even if Pei Wanyue could bear children, with such a character, she would bring disaster to three generations. He did not want to bring disaster to his children.
“It cannot be. You’re lying… You’re lying!” Pei Wanyue took a few steps back and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Xie Qiao had become the Princess Consort?
What was she, then?
She had become a concubine? An unloved concubine?!
She had once joined the Xie family and became Xie Qiao’s sister. The difference was too big. She could not accept it, she could not accept it!
“If we’re talking about Young Lady Xie’s marriage, the Crown Prince had personally requested it. His Highness holds Master Xie Pinggang in high regard. In the future, he will definitely not treat Young Lady Xie lightly. Moreover, Young Lady Xie is a kind and generous person. She has a dignified and gentle temperament. The husband and wife will definitely live a harmoniously life and treat each other with respect.” Wen Lancheng continued to agitate her.
“Nonsense! You don’t know anything about Xie Qiao! She doesn’t deserve it!
“Xie Qiao is clearly a strange person. I came to the capital with her. At that time, she even hid someone else’s bones in her bag! She’s very good at lying. Maybe the bones belonged to the person she killed! All of you are so bewitched by her that you can’t tell right from wrong!
“The Crown Prince is also bewitched. Xie Qiao is very aggressive. She even used a crossbow to shoot someone in the house. She even used a fake painting to enrol the academy. All of you have been deceived by her!”
Even now, she still did not believe that Xie Qiao really had Master Yun Wei’s painting.
It was all because Xie Qiao had conspired with others to plot against her!
Pei Wanyue squatted on the ground and cried, “How can a short-lived devil like Xie Qiao be the Princess Consort?!”
Wen Lancheng saw that the excitement was almost over, so he did not want to stay here and watch her cry.
“Lady Yue, I don’t want to hear you talking about the Crown Prince and the Princess Consort in the future. Otherwise, I’ll have to teach you a lesson,” Wen Lancheng said before he left.
However, Pei Wanyue could not hear anything at that moment.
She only knew that Xie Qiao had become the Princess Consort.
She could not help but have the image of her and Xie Qiao standing together in the past in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more she felt indignant.
Why was she always the one being outcla.s.sed?!
Xie Qiao was from a Taoist Temple. Who did she think she was?
Suddenly, Pei Wanyue stood up from the ground with her pair of almond eyes.
“Taoist temple… Yes, Taoist temple…” Pei Wanyue mumbled. She looked like she was possessed. Even the maidservant was shocked.
She remembered that her mother had once said that the Xie family… was very strange. Something was very wrong! At that time, she did not pay much attention to it, but now that she thought about it… Her mother was right!
Xie Niushan had said that his life and his daughter’s character were incompatible, so he had sent Xie Qiao to the Taoist temple…
However, why had he specially given Xie Qiao a pendant to ward off evil spirits when they had gone to pick her up? Also, after Xie Qiao returned home, she was not close to anyone in the family, and it was the same for his biological siblings!
Xie Niushan clearly loved Xie Qiao very much, but he arranged for her to live in the furthest courtyard!
Why?! Something was wrong with Xie Qiao. Something must be wrong with her!
