Reborn to overthrow the throne, I became the new emperor's dark moonlight
Chapter 40 Asking Qiao Xi for Compensation
"Your Majesty."
Ji Yao's eyes and eyebrows were full of pride, but she suddenly heard Qiao Xi's voice and turned her head abruptly.
Qiao Xi was wearing a plain white dress and walked towards her slowly.
But today she was more charming than ever. Ji Yao couldn't tell whether it was due to Qiao Xi's exquisite makeup or her seemingly simple yet low-key and luxurious headdress and dress.
In short, she was unwilling to admit that it was Qiao Xi, and she deliberately ignored the unique charm of a woman after she had sex with him.
When she first grew up, she heard about the intoxicating pleasures of men and women, so she secretly found some handsome boys to raise.
She is the only daughter of the Ji family and a princess of southern Xinjiang. She has no need to compromise herself.
Therefore, she was not unfamiliar with that kind of style, and she knew the taste of joy even better. This was also the reason why she fell in love with Su Heting at first sight.
After experiencing a lot, you will naturally know what kind of man is strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and what kind of man can make people want to die.
She did not doubt what Qiao Xi said, that Su Heting was very strong.
These words made her have a beautiful dream last night, in which she and Su Heting were present.
But the fact is that Qiao Xicheng loves Su Heting.
She secretly clenched her fingers. When she won Su Heting's heart, she would make Qiao Xi wish she were dead. No one could take away the person that Ji Yao liked, and it would be an unforgivable sin to get involved with him.
Qiao Xi walked up to the two of them.
Ji Yao glanced at Su Heting and saw that he looked calm. She tentatively gave him a shallow bow and said, "Ji Yao greets the princess."
Su Heting was not displeased by this.
Ji Yao had a clue in her mind. Either Su Heting didn't care about Qiao Xi at all, or there was really a gap between them.
Not long after getting married, he was already being rejected.
What happened last night must have been Qiao Xi climbing into bed to please Su Heting, otherwise Su Heting would not be so cold to Qiao Xi today.
There was contempt in Ji Yao's eyes.
What a useless thing.
Qiao Xixu supported her, "Miss Ji, there's no need to be so polite. I haven't been feeling well lately and have neglected Miss Ji. I wonder if there's anything Miss Ji needs, and I'll make it up to her myself."
Ji Yao proudly raised her hand and stroked the hairpin on her head, "Thank you for your kindness, Princess. However, the prince has already bought it for me."
Qiao Xi's expression froze.
After a long pause, she forced a smile and said to Su Heting, "If Your Majesty is busy with official business, I will come to accompany Miss Ji."
Ji Yao was angry. What did Qiao Xi mean? Did she want to urge Su Heting to leave?
Su Heting ignored Qiao Xi and only looked at Ji Yao, "Is there anyone else you like?"
Ji Yao almost got cocky and shook her head, "I like these things that the prince gave me. These are enough for me."
She heard that all the money in the King's Palace of Jiangbei was used to help those untouchables, and she was afraid that Su Heting was not well off either.
What she lacked the least was money. She had as much gold and silver jewelry as she wanted when she returned home. What made Su Heting feel most important at the moment was that she was sensible.
Upon hearing this, Su Heting asked again, "It's already noon, is there anything you would like to eat?"
Su Heting was still looking at Ji Yao.
Ji Yao was delighted and said, "I will listen to your Majesty."
When he turned around, he showed a hint of smugness towards Qiao Xi.
Su Heting seemed to be in deep thought for a few breaths, then walked towards the restaurant opposite.
Ji Yao hurried to catch up, and so did Qiao Xi.
"Although you and I both serve His Majesty, I hope you will remember the distinction between primary and secondary."
On the way, Qiao Xi whispered a warning.
Ji Yao almost laughed out loud.
It turned out that Qiao Xi wanted to use her, but was worried that she would steal her limelight.
Unfortunately, it's too late.
"Your Majesty, wait for me."
Ji Yao said in a delicate voice.
Su Heting actually stopped and waited for Ji Yao to catch up and then walked into the restaurant side by side with her.
Qiao Xi seemed a little aggrieved. She bit her lip and followed silently behind, looking around inconspicuously with her eyes lowered.
Su Heting and Ji Yao had just sat down in the private room of the restaurant when people on the street started talking about the fact that the King of Jiangbei had a new love and neglected his old love.
The people were making loud noises, and Ji Yao was sitting by the window so she could hear them clearly.
She was happy in her heart, but with a look of trepidation on her face, she said to Qiao Xi, "Princess, Ji Yao has admired the prince for a long time, but she never meant to embarrass you. Ji Yao, go down and explain to them."
"No need."
Su Heting spoke first, "Eat."
He looked very dignified when he was serious, and Ji Yao was just pretending, so he dropped the topic and didn't mention it again.
Qiao Xi consumed too much last night, and when she woke up in the morning, she was in a hurry to come back and hadn't eaten anything, so she was really hungry.
Then he concentrated on eating.
Su Heting noticed that she ate foods that were easily digestible, and a dark light flashed across his eyes.
Qiao Xi has a bad spleen and stomach.
No wonder she stopped eating glutinous rice cakes last time.
Ji Yao noticed Su Heting's gaze, and her heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to say something to attract Su Heting's attention, she heard someone downstairs say, "The King of Jiangbei can't be with Miss Ji.
You forgot that Xu An rebelled against Ji Chuan and seized two states in southern Xinjiang. Xu An and Ji Chuan were enemies.
In order to please the prince and seek his protection, Xu An deliberately opened up a water source to the north of the border. If the prince marries into the Ji family, won't he turn against Xu An? "
Ji Yao paused, "Your Highness, is what they said true? My father lost two states to Xu An?"
Su Heting nodded.
"Then...then Your Majesty is going to help Xu An deal with my father?"
Ji Yao was suddenly panicked. She could never have imagined that while she was imprisoned, her father had lost two states.
Su Heting looked at Qiao Xi indifferently.
It is no secret that Ji Chuan lost two cities in a row. As long as Ji Yao is released, she will know sooner or later.
He wanted to see how Qiao Xi would respond.
At this moment, someone downstairs was heard saying, "The rebellion was started by Xu An and Qiu Bayue, what does it have to do with the King of Xinjiang North?
There is a drought in northern Xinjiang, and Xu An has offered water on his own initiative. How could Your Highness refuse it?
If you ask me, it was really unfair that time. They knew there was a drought in northern Xinjiang, but they still refused to release the water source.
The water belongs to Dayou, and we are all Dayou's people, but Ji Chuan regards the water source as his Ji family's."
Ji Yao suddenly remembered Qiao Xi's words.
Yes, if her father really wanted her to marry Su Heting, why didn’t he give Su Heting water before?
Could it be that her father really wanted Su Heting's life from the beginning, so Su Heting imprisoned her?
Someone downstairs said, "I think you are all wrong. I heard that Xu An recruited many powerful people and took over the two states and Yanzhou as if it were an empty land.
His next stop will definitely be Ji Chuan's old nest, Yincheng. Ji Chuan definitely needs help at this time. The Xinjiang North Army is approaching Xinjiang South. If Ji Chuan is not stupid, he will just win over the King of Xinjiang North. Marrying his daughter is the best way to achieve this."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Our prince is a hero who stands tall and proud. How can he be chosen by the Ji family?
However, you are right about one thing. If Ji Chuan wants to win over power, marrying his daughter is indeed the best way.
If she doesn’t marry our prince, she will marry someone else…”
Ji Yao clenched the chopsticks tightly between her fingers.
My father is the emperor's man. If there's trouble in southern Xinjiang, my father will first seek help from the emperor...
The emperor is older than his father, but he is not even half as good as Su Heting.
But her father might not choose Su Heting. No, she doesn't want to go back. She wants to take Su Heting down first.
Once Su Heting is willing to help Jiangnan for her, her father will naturally not let her enter the palace.
Feeling that she had figured it out, she became more attentive to Su Heting, but Su Heting's brows were always furrowed, and she felt that Qiao Xi was being an eyesore.
After finishing the meal and leaving the restaurant, she followed Su Heting closely, trying to get rid of Qiao Xi.
Su Heting in front stopped, and Ji Yao looked down and saw that it was Qiao Xi who grabbed Su Heting's sleeve.
shameless.
Ji Yao cursed in her heart.
Qiao Xi said softly, "Your Majesty, I have something to tell you. Could you please take my carriage?"
Su Heting remained silent.
Qiao Xi took a step forward, took Su Heting's hand, and got into her carriage.
Ji Yao was furious, and her competitive spirit made her determined to find a way to win favor.
He had no idea that he was not related to Su Heting.
Meanwhile, Qiao Xi led someone onto the carriage and was about to let go of Su Heting's hand, but Su Heting grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms. "Who did you learn this habit of changing after taking advantage of others, Princess?"
Before Qiao Xi could think of how to respond, she was showered with kisses.
Su Heting was disgusted by Ji Yao, and he had to find Qiao Xi to please him and make amends.
Qiao Xi subconsciously resisted, but thinking that she needed to let the emperor know that Su Heting still cared about her, she had no choice but to let Su Heting kiss her until the end of time...
