Chapter 1089 Looks Human
The three princesses were also present. They were all sisters-in-law, so she had to recognize them roughly. Xie Qiao did not forget to take a second look.
The eldest daughter of the Emperor was already eighteen years old. The concubines gave birth to beautiful children, so this child was not too bad either. Moreover, although the current emperor was already in his forties, he looked like a handsome old man. With such parents, these few heirs of the imperial family were all beautiful.
Of course, the Crown Prince was the most beautiful.
However, Xie Qiao discovered that this eldest daughter had a romantic fate on her face and was slightly worried. There was a red blotch at the end of her eye. It was not big, but the position was not very good.
She was going to the palace to meet her in-laws today, so it was not appropriate to talk about this.
It was a women’s occasion, so it was not suitable for the Crown Prince to stay any longer. After a while, she was the only one left.
However, Xie Qiao was quite confident and did not have stage fright.
Especially recently, the Gu family had visited her and she solved a major disaster. It was also thanks to Xie Qiao’s reminder, so the Empress was very satisfied with her.
It was a pity that her body was not in a good condition. She was only worried about what the Crown Prince would do if he did not have a legitimate son in the future. “The Empress’ daughter-in-law has really opened my eyes today. She’s so pretty. I heard that her father was actually a bandit who was recruited? She really doesn’t look like one!” Suddenly, a teasing voice came from the side.
These words were said gently, but it did not seem like much.
Xie Qiao did not care either. Her father was initially a bandit. In the past, he was indeed an unpresentable person, but now that he had been walking on the correct path and became an official.
To put it bluntly, the first emperor of this dynasty was the traitor.
“Princess Consort, this is Concubine Rong. She has only recently followed Prince Rong into the capital. She isn’t very familiar with the matters in the capital,” the Empress briefly introduced.
When Xie Qiao heard the word “Prince Rong,” she could not help but glance at this person a few more times.
Her facial features… were not the type that Xie Qiao liked.
After taking a few glances, she felt that it was too eye-piercing. She did not want to look at her anymore and sat down obediently.
“Your Highness, although I have just entered the capital, I have not heard much about the matters of the Xie family. I am really curious about this Young Lady Xie. Earlier, I begged the Royal Highness to give more gifts to this Young Lady Xie. Who knew that this bandit knew very well of the etiquette? He gave the gift to the Emperor just like that.” Concubine Rong kept smiling, it looked like she was saying something very simple.
However, yesterday, Xie Qiao had just gotten married. Today, in front of her, she was trying to show her off.
Xie Qiao smiled gently, it was very pleasing to the ear.
“Why are you smiling, Princess Consort? Do you agree with what I said?” Concubine Rong asked again.
The Empress did not speak.
Xie Qiao was no longer the young lady of the Xie family, she was the Princess Consort.
With such a status, if she could not even handle such a small matter, then it would not be good for her to go out in the future. It would be more appropriate for her to lock herself up at home and hide.
“Concubine Rong is right. Nowadays, even bandits can become officials. What is impossible? My father knows the etiquette. In Concubine Rong’s eyes, it’s funny and rare for a monster to eat with chopsticks. And if you’ve given a gift that oversteps, it might be like… a living person who does not care about human affairs and learns to bite people like animals. It is a rare sight.
“Fortunately, my father looks human. I wonder when Concubine Rong will be willing to take off the animal skin on her body,” Xie Qiao said gently.
“Princess Consort!” Concubine Rong was so angry that she stood up. “You dare to humiliate me and the Royal Highness like this?!”
“Did I?” Xie Qiao looked at her innocently. “Didn’t I just respond to Concubine Rong’s statement? I didn’t refute you.”
