The Crown Prince picking a consort was a big deal. In the past few days, the ordinary students from the Royal Academy had already gone to the academy, but the girls had longer holidays, so they had to wait.
With Xie Pinggang as a shield, the Crown Prince ordered Young Lady Xie to go to the Crown Prince’s mansion on the 8th of October directly.
The invitation was sent directly to the family.
Many people saw that, and the news quickly spread among the officials.
On this day, Xie Qiao wore a smoky purple robe with blue clouds and embroidered patterns. She wore a red cloak and boarded the sedan chair.
The more she wore, the more things she could hide.
She was going to see the feng shui layout of the Crown Prince’s mansion, so she had to bring many things with her.
The compass could not be missing. It was secretly hidden in her embrace. In addition, the newly inscribed talismans and the gift of gratitude carved for the Crown Prince were all hidden.
She was initially thin. Even though she had packed a lot of things at this moment, she did not appear fat. Not only that, this fiery red cloak made her look even more delicate and pleasant.
As soon as she entered the Imperial City, Xie Qiao felt that the bottle that she carried with her moved slightly.
Inside the bottle was the female ghoul in the palace dress. She thought that this ghoul had lived in the palace before. If she returned to her previous residence, she might be able to think of something. Therefore, Xie Qiao decided to bring this ghoul here.
She did not expect the effect to be so great. She had just entered the Imperial City and this ghoul was already restless.
She let the ghoul out.
“The atmosphere here is very familiar…” The female ghoul in the palace dress floated obediently in her sedan chair and muttered.
This female ghoul was quite good-looking and her face was as fair as jade. She was a little too outstanding to be a maidservant. She might even be a concubine.
“Don’t stay too far away from me. If you float away, I won’t come looking for you,” Xie Qiao said indifferently.
Xie Qiao lifted the curtain and looked outside.
Other than the walls, there were only the officers and soldiers. It was quiet and solemn.
It looked like it would make one’s chest feel stuffy. Xie Qiao covered the curtain with disdain again.
After they arrived at the Crown Prince’s mansion in the East Palace, they got off the sedan chair and were taken to the back garden of the Crown Prince’s mansion by the palace maids.
There were many beauties.
Hmm…
There were living ones and dead ones as well.
At that moment, Xie Qiao felt her eyes were stimulated and immediately lowered her head.
She looked at her feet casually and did not move closer to the crowd.
“Sister Dong, look, Xie Qiao is really here,” Xia Yayun pointed in the direction of Xie Qiao, “A bandit’s daughter thinks she deserves to have any relations with the Royal Family?”
Young Lady Dong was calm and gentle, “Sister Yayun, you will offend people if you say that.”
“I have offended her a long time ago. Why should I be afraid of her? Besides, you don’t know that even though she doesn’t come from a good family background, she’s capable of coaxing people. Even Sister Mu Xue is on her side!”
After the Winter Clothes Festival, nobody talked to her anymore!
Not to mention Fang Mu Xue, even Meng Shuxiang and Feng Shuangshuang ignored her invitation!
When the Crown Prince chose his consort, not every woman from every household had to come.
For those who were already engaged or prepared to be engaged, they were naturally exempted.
For others, unless they were feeling unwell, they would come for a visit. Of course, it was not for the sake of being chosen. It was because today, the Empress and a few imperial concubines would also be coming, so they naturally had to leave a good impression.
The Crown Prince was crippled. In the eyes of the people, no matter how much they favored him, he would definitely not become a great treasure in the future.
Hence, they definitely would not throw these flirtatious glances casually. It would be disastrous if they brought disaster to their family.
At a glance, almost all the beauties present were dressed in plain colors.
Xie Qiao’s fiery red fur cloak was especially eye-catching.
She was sincerely not trying to steal the limelight. Instead, she thought the white cloak was bad luck. Apart from the white cloak, the red cloak was the only one that looked better.
