BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1098 - Greedy
Chapter 1098: Greedy
When Xie Qiao heard the steward’s words, she almost understood what this courtyard was for immediately.
She did not have many guests.
If it was really so luxurious that she needed to use this largest and best guest courtyard, it would be for none other than Mo Lingzi.
In the future, she would have to support Mo Lingzi in his old age.
Perhaps when Mo Lingzi could not manage the Water Moon Temple well anymore, he would come looking for her eagerly. At that time, he would need a place to stay.
Xie Qiao asked the steward to leave and someone to fetch a basin of water to take care of her Crown Prince.
However…
A man who was drunk and was flirty should not be touched.
…
Xie Qiao’s life in this residence was quite smooth. However, Zhao Xuanjing was busy with errands. Within two days after returning home, he started to leave early and return home late. He also had to go to the imperial court and handle some government affairs.
Xie Qiao also found that there were some mementos in the study occasionally.
The Crown Prince’s father was really something. He probably already planned to get his son to ascend the throne early.
With the Emperor’s love for the Crown Prince, Xie Qiao suspected that she might not be the Princess Consort for long. Perhaps one day, the Emperor would directly give in!
Perhaps... She should find time to observe the weather.
The Crown Prince was busy, and she was bored guarding the Crown Prince’s residence, so she went to the Fortune Pavilion.
A guest visited.
It was Meng Jifang.
Xie Qiao turned into Mo Chusheng to meet him. She only saw that his eyes were black and blue. He should not have rested well and was listless. Moreover, when he went out today, he did not have a group of boys with him. It was quite strange that he was alone.
When Meng Jifang saw Mo Chusheng, he also felt a little awkward.
Mo Chusheng was the Crown Prince’s senior sister. To put it bluntly, she was not on the same side as him and could be considered half an enemy.
However, considering his recent experiences, Meng Jifang still gritted his teeth and asked, “I heard that you can capture souls. How much does it cost?”
“Did something happen to you?” Xie Qiao asked with a look of certainty.
Meng Jifang nodded uneasily. “It’s just a little weird. It’s not a big problem. I came to see if you, the so-called master, are accurate.”
He did not like Mo Chusheng. An old woman like Mo Chusheng seduced the Crown Prince. She could not be compared to Xie Qiao.
Only the Crown Prince was blind to care so much about this person.
Others said that the Crown Prince respected his senior sister, but he thought it was nonsense. The Crown Prince had a senior brother, but was not his attitude toward Xiao Yurong the same as usual? He was not cold, but he was not overly enthusiastic!
How could it be so different when it was his senior sister?
He had even seen the Crown Prince’s attitude toward Old Master Li. It was respectful, but not cordial!
He initially wanted to go to Yuxu Temple outside the city, but he wanted to see what kind of ability this witch had, so he changed his mind and came here.
“Your situation...” Xie Qiao took a look and then said, “A hundred taels of silver for divination and 500 taels of silver for removing the disaster. If there are other requirements, I will ask for more.”
“You are quite greedy.” Meng Jifang smiled sarcastically.
She asked for a hundred taels of silver. Did she know that an ordinary family could survive for a year with three to five taels of silver?
“It’s up to you whether you spend this silver on yourself or not. However, I advise you not to save it.” Xie Qiao saw that he was full of bad luck and said.
Meng Jifang simply took out a hundred taels of silver and placed it in front of Xie Qiao. “Let’s do the divination first and see if you are right. If you are not, I will have someone destroy your shop. Don’t argue with this young master and say that you are wronged!”
Xie Qiao accepted the silver happily.
She took out a few copper coins and tossed them. After two rounds, she counted with her fingers and asked, “Have you been to a place like the wild forest recently? More importantly... Did you lose your way?”
