The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 711: Dishonest Means

The steward was only passing on the message according to Xie Qiao’s instructions.

It was impossible for Xie Qiao to do things without accepting money. It was just that she did not know what kind of situation the Yan family was in, so it would be inappropriate to accept too much money. Moreover, he owed Young Lady Yan such a big favor, so she only accepted one tael of silver.

One had to know that Prince Ning Bei had already given her a reward of five thousand taels of silver. There was also the Li family. As the matter was more troublesome, they gave even more money.

The Li family was not as rich as Prince Ning Bei’s family, yet they had already given her so much silver.

The Yan family was a family of clear flow, and the family behind them was not very powerful. Their family background was not much better than the Xie family’s, so the price Xie Qiao charged was very affordable.

Master Yan thought it was strange. “I’m clean. I don’t believe in this dishonest means!”

“My First Young Lady said that it’s better to believe in something than not. Aren’t you curious about the Fortune Pavilion? You can also use this tablet to satisfy your curiosity,” the steward said honestly.

With that said, Master Yan thought it was quite reasonable.

So he asked the steward to leave.

After a while, Young Lady Yan arrived at the main hall and saw her father with a sad face. She said, “Father, I entered the palace yesterday. I admire Young Lady Xie.”

“I know that Young Lady Xie is different from Xie Niushan. She’s a scholar and has a good reputation in the academy. But… she is not in good health. Rumor has it that she has a lethal fate. How can such a person be suitable for the Crown Prince of a country?” Master Yan sighed.

“Father, I heard that you told the Xie family’s steward that you don’t believe in that dishonest means. Why do you believe in Young Lady Xie’s lethal fate now?” Young Lady Yan smiled. “Young Lady Xie’s health is indeed lacking, but this person’s bearing is really extraordinary. At the very least… It’s not something that Young Lady Dong can compare to.

“In addition, I saw the imperial concubine and the Fourth Prince yesterday. They were very respectful toward the Empress and the Crown Prince… The Fourth Prince doesn’t seem to be someone who would seize power. I remember that you once said that it was mostly the Meng family who made a move to rope you in…I don’t think it’s… appropriate. The Meng family is overstepping their master in their doings. It’s inappropriate in the first place,” Young Lady Yan added.

“Do you think I don’t know? But look at the Crown Prince…” Master Yan knew better than anyone else!

The Fourth Prince was a peaceful and happy person. He loved to study poetry and songs, but he knew nothing about the skills of an Emperor.

In fact, the Fourth Prince did not know much about the people. He was really a person who grew up in the clouds, and his feet had never touched the ground!

Unlike the Crown Prince who understood the hearts of the people from a young age. Even when he was in the Royal Academy back then, he would often pay attention to important matters in the world, and he was smart from a young age!

To put it bluntly, if the current emperor were to die, the Crown Prince would immediately take over the throne. With his current ability, he would be able to control the politics of the imperial court properly, and there was no need for the courtiers to worry at all!

The Crown Prince was a good Crown Prince!

“Father, it’s just an arm. Is it really that important? I can see that the Crown Prince could hold a glass of water properly with his arm. As long as he doesn’t use force, one shouldn’t be able to see any disabilities, right?” Young Lady Yan asked.

Master Yan thought for a moment. “Back then when that big bug bit directly on his arm, fresh blood splattered everywhere. I wonder how many imperial physicians were assigned to treat him. The side-effects… My dear daughter, you must know that the injury was very painful and has caused so much blood to flow. How can it not use up one’s lifespan? Moreover, I heard that the Crown Prince’s arm would occasionally be in severe pain. Therefore, even if he’s fine on a normal day, it doesn’t mean that he’s really like an ordinary person, right? Not only that… The Crown Prince has had many accidents these past few years. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to live for long.”
