Venomous Empress Reborn

564 Alliance (5)
“Pay me?” Xie Jingxing said indifferently, “The Shen family offered ten thousand taels of gold for your whereabouts, but I didn’t care. There’s a lot of money in the treasury of the Daliang Dynasty. What can you pay me with?”

Shen Miao gritted her teeth. “As long as you don’t ask me to marry you, everything is fine.”

Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows at her and sighed. “So that’s what’s on your mind? Are you reminding me of the fact that you want to marry me? Women have to be reserved. It’s not good for you to be like this.”

Shen Miao looked away.

“Forget it.” Xie Jingxing said, “Saving someone is just a small matter to me. I won’t make things difficult for you. What I want is simple.” He stared at Shen Miao and said with a faint smile, “Writing poetry, playing the Guqin, making pastries and clothes for me. That’s all for now.”

Shen Miao was speechless.

She said, “Change to something else.”

“I only want these.” Xie Jingxing rejected Shen Miao. As if feeling that the ground was a little cold, he pulled Shen Miao up.

“I can’t send you back to the Shen mansion now. You’ve been missing for a total of three days. Rumors are spreading outside. If you go back now, people will inevitably suspect you.” Xie Jingxing said, “I’ll get someone to send you to the princess’s mansion. Auntie Rong will help you.”

Shen Miao was stunned. She looked at Xie Jingxing and asked, “Princess Rong Xin also knows your identity?”

Xie Jingxing shook his head. “In Ming Qi, you’re the only one who knows.”

Shen Miao fell silent. Xie Jingxing looked at Xie Changchao’s corpse on the ground, and a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes. He suddenly said, “However, in order to save you today, I killed someone and inevitably caused trouble. This all started because of you. From now on, we’re on the same boat. You’re my ally, understand?”

“I don’t think I’ve agreed.” Shen Miao was angry.

“As long as I agree, it’s enough.” Xie Jingxing snapped his fingers and two men in black walked in.

“Move it back.” Xie Jingxing kicked Xie Changchao’s corpse with his foot.

Shen Miao was surprised. “Why do you want his corpse?”

Xie Jingxing raised an eyebrow. “It’s still useful.”

…

It had been a long time since a guest came to the princess’s mansion.

Ever since the news of Xie Jingxing dying on the battlefield two years ago, Princess Rong Xin had been seriously ill. Later, after she recovered from her illness, she seemed to have her spirits and rarely attended even the royal family’s banquets. She left the princess’s mansion less and less often and even refused to see anyone who came to visit. Everyone knew that this was because of Xie Jingxing’s death. Princess Rong Xin had no children and treated her nephew as her son. When Xie Jingxing was alive, he would go to the princess’s mansion every few days. Later, when Xie Jingxing died in battle, Princess Rong Xin hadn’t had any guests.

Today, a guest dropped in on Princess Rong Xin.

The maid who was sweeping the floor outside was an old servant of the princess’s mansion. She could tell at a glance that the girl sitting in the carriage had come to the princess’s mansion two years ago. At that time, Princess Rong Xin even treated her very warmly. Shen, Shen, what was her name again? The maid couldn’t remember. However, not long after, Princess Rong Xin’s personal maid rushed out and welcomed the female guest and the guard in.

Seeing this, the remaining maids gathered together and whispered, “Which family is that girl from? Princess hasn’t seen any guests in the past two years. It’s weird that someone suddenly came.”

“From the looks of it, Princess seems to be very eager to see this guest. This female guest probably has some friendship with the princess in the past.”
