Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy

Xie Qingyao is actually destined to be a phoenix, so isn't she the future queen?!

The Third Prince was full of doubts. Although he only believed Xie Qingyao's words to some extent, it was related to the great cause after all and could not afford to make any mistakes. Therefore, he had long given up the idea of ​​seeking pleasure and no longer dared to tease Xie Qingyao as an ordinary woman.

In his mind, he quickly calculated the pros and cons of marrying Xie Qingyao as the prince's consort. If Xie Qingyao really had the fate of a phoenix, marrying her would add an extra guarantee for ascending the throne. The disadvantage was that Marquis Jing'an was only a fourth-rank official, his status was too low, and he would not be of much help to his cause. Moreover, having such a father-in-law would easily make people laugh at him.

Fortunately, Xie Qingyao still has the Jiang family, his maternal grandfather. Although Miss Xie is favored, she will definitely not marry into the royal family according to the rules of the Jiang family. So if he marries Xie Qingyao, who is related to the Jiang family by blood, the Jiang family will be completely tied to him. The Jiang family probably has no other choice but to support him to ascend to the throne!

The Third Prince's lips curled slightly. Calculating this way, marrying Xie Qingyao was a sure win. The only thing he needed to confirm now was whether Xie Qingyao's words were true or not...

Thinking of this, the Third Prince pulled out an exquisite white brocade handkerchief from his bosom and gently wiped away the tears from Xie Qingyao's eyes. He said softly, "Don't cry, Yao'er. Since that Taoist priest was able to predict Yao'er's calamity, he must have left behind a way to break it."

The light in Xie Qingyao's eyes gradually dimmed. She frowned slightly, shook her head slightly, and sighed softly: "He did leave behind a method to crack it, but his method is not feasible."

The Third Prince raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked in confusion, "Oh? What method is that? Why is it not feasible?"

Xie Qingyao's eyes were filled with struggle and helplessness. After hesitating for a moment, she whispered, "He said that although I and my sister are born of the same mother, our fates are incompatible. We will compete with each other for luck, and one will gain while the other loses."

"So, if I grow up healthy and well, my sisters will be weak and sickly. If I achieve the fate of a phoenix, my sisters will die..."

A trace of surprise flashed across the Third Prince's eyes, and he asked doubtfully, "How could such a thing be possible? But I saw your sister today. Although she is frail, she doesn't look like someone who has been ill for a long time."

Xie Qingyao's eyes flickered as she whispered, "I grew up healthy and at first I didn't believe it, but then Sister Li'er suddenly returned home. I heard that she had always been weak in the countryside. But after she returned home, her health gradually improved, while I, on the other hand, had troubles. So, I had to believe it."

"But I do not wish to harm Sister Li'er. It is not easy for her to survive, and she has suffered so much in the countryside. I do not want her to suffer any harm because of me."

The Third Prince's pupils shrank slightly. Could such a strange thing really exist in the world? His distinct black and white eyes rolled around, and he said softly, "In that case, Yao'er, why don't you give me your birth date and time? I know some experts who can help you find a solution that will achieve the best of both worlds."

Of course, he was not really helping, he just wanted to obtain Xie Qingyao's birth date and time to verify whether she had the fate of a phoenix.

Xie Qingyao instantly understood the Third Prince's intentions. However, as she hadn't yet received Xie Qingli's Phoenix Fate, nor did she know Xie Qingli's birth date, she could only express gratitude and said excitedly, "If Your Highness is willing to help, that would be great! As for my birth date, I will send a maid to deliver it to Your Highness's residence tomorrow."

The Third Prince didn't suspect anything, and the two of them continued chatting all the way, each with their own thoughts. However, after a while, the atmosphere became somewhat ambiguous. When the carriage arrived at the gate of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion, they both felt a little reluctant to say goodbye!

Xie Qingyao gracefully got off the carriage, and Xiaotao hurried forward to support her. The two stood in front of the Marquis's mansion, watching the Third Prince's carriage leave before entering the mansion.

As soon as she entered the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, she almost bumped into a hurried servant. Xiao Tao quickly pulled Xie Qingyao away and shouted angrily, "Are you looking at the road with your head? You almost bumped into the young lady!"

The servant finally saw Xie Qingyao and her servant clearly, and his eyes widened as he exclaimed in surprise, "It's the Second Young Lady! You're finally back! That's great! Because you didn't come back with the other young ladies, the mansion was in turmoil!"

He bowed and said, "I'll go and tell you the good news right away." After that, he ran quickly towards the second gate.

Xie Qingyao was in a cheerful mood, the excitement of meeting the Third Prince still lingering. She walked towards the inner courtyard at a leisurely pace, secretly pondering how to report today's events to her grandmother. What price should Xie Qingqi pay for secretly taking away all the carriages...

……

In Songhe Hall, Xie Jingyuan and Xie Jingliang accompanied Old Lady Xie. Old Lady Xie was worried, but she finally felt relieved when she saw Xie Qingyao returning safely.

She waved at Xie Qingyao and said lovingly, "Yao'er, come to Grandma quickly. You're finally back. Grandma was almost scared to death."

Xie Qingyao's nose felt slightly sore, and two tears welled up in the corners of her eyes. She quickly stepped forward and held Madam Xie's hand, saying aggrievedly, "Grandmother, Yao'er is also scared! Because of Sister Man'er's matter, the eldest princess ordered Sister Qi'er to take Sister Man'er back home first. Unexpectedly, Sister Qi'er actually asked for both carriages to return."

"After the banquet, Yaoer stood alone at the entrance of Juyuan, not knowing how to return to Shengjing City. Yaoer was so scared..."

Old Madam Xie's face darkened slightly as she said in a cold voice, "Qi'er seemed like a good girl and had always been respectful to you. I never thought she would do such a bad thing today. Don't worry, Yao'er, Grandmother has punished her by making her kneel in the ancestral hall."

As she spoke, she glared at Xie Jingliang. The daughter of An's Education Department was so vicious. She was afraid that Xuan'er had also been corrupted by her.

Xie Qingyao opened her red lips slightly upon hearing this, a flicker of surprise flashing through her eyes, but she quickly composed herself. She took out the bottle of Ningxiang Shuzhen Cream and respectfully handed it to Old Madam Xie, saying softly, "Grandmother, this is the Ningxiang Shuzhen Cream that the eldest princess gave to Sister Man'er to treat her face. It's said to be made by the imperial court and is extremely precious. Please keep it for Sister Man'er."

Madam Xie's expression grew even colder as she said coldly, "Man'er has done something so shameful that it has brought shame upon our family. How can we afford to give her such a valuable gift? Just ask a doctor to take a look."

She reached out to take the bottle of Condensed Fragrance Scar Relief Cream and sniffed it carefully, saying in surprise, "As expected, royal items are extraordinary. Such a good thing is meant for a beauty like Yao'er. Yao'er, keep it!"

Madam Xie stuffed the bottle of Ningxiang Shuhen Cream back into Xie Qingyao's hands. Xie Qingyao was delighted and hurriedly thanked her. Xie Jingliang, however, was filled with anger. This was something Man'er had earned with her face, and her mother was so partial to giving it to this imposter? But he dared not speak out!

Suddenly, a maid ran in hurriedly, knelt on the ground with a plop, and anxiously reported: "Old Madam, Marquis, Second Master, Concubine Luo has hanged herself..."
