Zhao Xuanjing knew the severity of the matter. Although Zhao Jialing was arrogant and even a little vicious, this matter was also related to the dignity of Prince Yong Lin.
‘There was another Commandery Princess in Prince Yong Lin’s family. She was quite obedient. If something happened to her biological sister, her reputation would be tarnished. After all, she was his cousin and a member of the imperial family. It would not be good to be too ruthless.
“Tl tell Uncle Yong Lin about the matter later. He will decide how to deal with it.” Zhao Xuanjing would not offend people so openly anymore.

In the past, he was alone and crippled. He had even resigned from the position of Crown Prince, but he did not get the permission to do so.
Seeing those people targeting him all day long, he felt unhappy. He became a little heartless when he did things.
However, in the future, Xie Qiao was going to marry into the family.
He should be a little more restrained and not make enemies for no reason.
Yu Xian was still following her. She was very quiet along the way. She only looked at Xie Qiao with admiration in her eyes.
Now that the matter was settled, she also heaved a sigh of relief. She could not help but interject, “Master, did you not say that the Commandery Princess was looking for a master? This master is definitely not as upright as you, right?
“After all… he gave pointers to people like Bao Yi and made a small fortune. It can be seen that he has no principles in doing things. Presumably… he’s not a good person,” Yu Xian added.
“He must have his own reason.” Zhao Xuanjing nodded.
“Lhave never heard of this Taoist Master Liuming before. Next time, if I meet Yuan Changzi of the Yuxu Temple, I will ask him about it. He must know many of his peers in the capital. He should know a thing or two,” Xie Qiao replied.
Xie Qiao thought if things did not go well, she would spend the night outside. However, looking at it now, the city gates should not be closed when she returned to the city.
She immediately set off.
After returning to the city, Zhao Xuanjing returned to the Royal Academy.
Xie Qiao was a little envious of him.
‘As the Crown Prince, he usually had to live in the Imperial City to prevent accidents from happening that would crush the foundation of the country.
However, Zhao Xuanjing… was really indulged to the point of “lawlessness.” He could find something to do at the criminal division to pa.s.s time and settle down in the Royal Academy. He was really at ease.
Just based on the emperor’s indulgence and love for him, if he could not become the emperor in the end, it was probably because he did not want to advance.
Everyone left, but Xie Qiao still could not sleep peacefully.
She still had to deal with serious matters.
The Baili family members were still waiting for her at the Fortune Pavilion. It was also an important matter, so she did not dare to delay.
Since she came back from Mengjiabao, she had not had the time to go home to see her brothers and sister. Life was really difficult, and it was hard for her to survive.
Baili Ji really treated her place as his home.
‘When she left early in the morning, she specially burned a few books for him. This person was sitting in her armchair, sipping tea and reading at the same time, leisurely and carefree. He really did not look like he had lost his descendants.
“Master, you’re back?” Bai Liji did not forget to greet her when he saw her. “Do you have any other good books to read? These books aren’t very good. The people who wrote these books can’t be compared to those young kids in my family.”
Xie Qiao was dumbfounded.
It was only natural that they could not be compared!
‘The Baili family was a big family in the past. They had acc.u.mulated wealth and knowledge for many years. Therefore, even if the people in their family were good-for-nothings, they were definitely good-for-nothings who were better at reading than ordinary people!
Even in the imperial court, there were many Baili family members at that time!
This was also why, after the Baili family was wiped out, there were people who began to rebel!
“Don’t you have a few masterpieces that have been pa.s.sed down for generations? Burn them and let me broaden my horizons, okay?” Baili Ji said again..
