Chapter 1088 Worried About Gains and Losses
Even Xie Qiao had no idea where to start.
“Eat some of everything. It will be like this every day in the future. Your health is not good, and your bones are too thin. Also, every two days, the imperial physician will take your pulse.
“I also told Father that your body is weak. Unless it’s necessary, you will go to the palace to visit Father and Mother. If I’m not here, you don’t have to greet them.
“I don’t like living in the palace. After you return, you can stay in the Crown Prince’s residence outside the palace,” Zhao Xuanjing added.
“His Majesty…” After Xie Qiao spoke, she thought that this title was inappropriate, so she changed her words. “Isn’t Father being too indulgent with you? It’s understandable that you live in the Royal Academy, but you actually set up the Crown Prince’s residence outside the palace? You’re already married, yet he still agreed and let us live outside together?”
It was safer in the palace, and there were many guards.
If someone wanted to assassinate him outside, the possibility of an accident would be higher.
“Father is used to indulging me. If he doesn’t indulge me for a day, he’ll be worried about gains and losses,” Zhao Xuanjing said seriously.
Why did Xie Qiao feel that he deserved a beating?
“You should be clear about the situation in the palace. It’s just that a few princes have come to the capital recently, so it’s a little noisy. If you run into them on a normal day, you don’t need to say anything when I’m around. If I’m not around, you can say whatever you want. It doesn’t matter if you say harsh things.”
“Okay.” Xie Qiao nodded.
“There are stewards in the Crown Prince’s residence to manage the accounts. They are all trustworthy. You can leave the trivial matters to them. It’s okay to go out and take a look when you have time,” Zhao Xuanjing said with hidden meaning, “From now on, you and I only have one common goal…”
He stared at Xie Qiao. Xie Qiao thought for a moment and tried to get the hint from the Crown Prince.
She hesitated and asked suspiciously, “Live a long life?”
“That’s right.” Zhao Xuanjing nodded. “You and I have to fight for our lives. If we live longer, we can be together for a longer time.”
Xie Qiao felt that she did not have enough confidence.
It seemed that Zhao Xuanjing was serious. He wanted her to live a long life first.
“You’re the Crown Prince of the country. Isn’t this goal a little too easy? I’ll work hard on my own. You’d better make a promise to the sea, the river, and the peace of the world…” Xie Qiao did not want to be tied to him.
Look at the food today. It was too sumptuous. She could not afford it!
How much money did a meal cost…
It would not be good if such a luxury lifestyle spread out!
“I’m not a fool. The peace of the world is my responsibility. I’ll try my best, but my grand wish is to let you live for a long time.” Zhao Xuanjing had made up his mind yesterday. He liked to see her bright and arrogant appearance. Whether it was by pinching his waist or staring at him to slow down, it was only when she was full of life that he felt happy.
He did not want to see her half-dead and gasping for breath.
Xie Qiao now felt that her life did not belong to her anymore.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you.” Xie Qiao nodded solemnly.
“Also, there’s no need to worry about the matter of bearing a child. You and I can accumulate more good karma, and our health can become better. Our fates will be the same. We can definitely change,” Zhao Xuanjing added.
Xie Qiao nodded obediently.
Alright, alright.
Xie Qiao was good at pretending to be honest. She nodded no matter what Zhao Xuanjing said. Although she felt the pressure of risking her life, she still had some expectations in her heart.
After eating and drinking, she changed into her court attire and went to pay her respects to the Emperor and Empress.
The Emperor was busy with administrative affairs. He went to the imperial study after seeing her, but there were many wives of the officials here on the Empress’ side.
“Your Highness is already married. This year, there will be many happy events. The palace will be more and more lively in the future,” said one of the Emperor’s concubines.
Xie Qiao had an impression that this person was Concubine Ruan who was by the Emperor’s side. She was the mother of the Emperor’s eldest daughter.
The marriage of the eldest daughter had already been decided. She should be married in a few months.
