After marrying the heirless prince, I gave birth to three children

Xie Yao acted like the Crown Princess and the Emperor's sister-in-law.

Xiao Hong was surprised and even more angry.

But no matter how angry he was inside, he did not show it on his face. Instead, he bowed gently and politely, "Thank you for your guidance, sister-in-law."

It's quite bearable.

Xie Yao nodded slightly and sat back down, "Let's go."

Xie Yao's carriage slowly drove away, but Xiao Hong did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he stood there and stared at the carriage from the Prince's Mansion.

There was a cold glint in his eyes.

Xie Yao...

South city gate.

Xie Yao's carriage stopped at the city gate.

"Crown Princess, it's the Zhao family's caravan! It must be my cousin!" Zhu Qing's excited voice rang out, and Xie Yao lifted the carriage curtain to look -

From a distance, I could see a girl with her hair tied up high and dressed in red riding a horse.

"Yaoyao!"

When the girl in red saw Xie Yao from afar, her eyes lit up. She kicked the horse's belly, and the horse went faster, finally stopping steadily beside the carriage of the prince's mansion.

Zhao Ying dismounted and felt a little restrained when looking at his cousin who was so close to him.

My cousin still looks as well behaved as she did when she was a child.

"Sister Ying." Xie Yao smiled and spoke first.

Zhao Ying's heart instantly fell back to where it was.

The Zhao family has a house in the capital, but at this moment they followed Xie Yao back to the Prince's Mansion.

As soon as she got off the carriage, the steward came forward and said respectfully with a smile, "Crown Princess, His Highness learned that the cousin was coming, so he specially ordered the servant to clean the Qingya Pavilion."

After all, Zhao Ying was a woman, and Xiao Ji was not in a position to see her often. The manager's words at this moment were simply to express his welcome.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Please take care of it." Zhao Ying's voice was refreshing, and she felt more relaxed. She gestured to the dozen or so carriages parked in front of the Crown Prince's Mansion and said, "These are gifts for the Crown Princess. Please take the steward to register them and put them into storage."

The manager turned around and was stunned.

Even though he was the manager of the Prince's Mansion and claimed to have seen the world, he was shocked at this moment.

The Zhao family...what a big deal!

Qingyaxuan is very close to the main courtyard and is spacious and quiet.

The servants left, leaving only the two cousins. Zhao Ying looked around and said, "Yaoyao, is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treating you well?"

Xie Yao nodded and hugged Zhao Ying, "I'm fine, Sister Ying, don't worry about me."

"Didn't the message say before that your betrothal was to be to a scholar? How did it suddenly become the Crown Prince?"

The identities of these two people are very different. Can the Xie family be so kind?

"This is fate." Xie Yao smiled.

"Yaoyao." Zhao Ying held her hand. "Brother Hao passed the imperial examination last year. He is very confident about taking the imperial examination in the autumn next year. Don't be afraid."

The Zhao family has a small family. Zhao Hao is Zhao Ying's younger brother and the only male in this generation of the Zhao family.

Zhao Hao took the path of imperial examination, and Zhao Ying is now in charge of the Zhao family's business.

"In the future, our family business will be transferred to Beijing. I am here to expand the market." Every word Zhao Ying said was conveying one message to Xie Yao: her family members are here.

"Sister Ying is so amazing." Xie Yao praised sincerely.

Being praised by her sweet and soft little cousin, Zhao Ying felt a little embarrassed and said, "Although the Prince's Mansion is nice, it is not convenient for me to stay there for a long time. Seeing that everything is fine with you this time, I am relieved."

"Sister Ying." Xie Yao took Zhao Ying's arm and said, "Would you please stay in the Prince's Mansion for a few more days? Just consider it as a favor to me."

Who would be willing to refuse this?

Zhao Ying agreed immediately.

A dark light flashed in Xie Yao's eyes, and she said, "Sister Ying, could you please help me ask the company to find a world-famous doctor?"

"Are you feeling unwell?" Zhao Ying looked worried.

Xie Yao shook her head, "It's not me. Sister Ying, please keep this a secret for me."

Meanwhile, the study.

"Your Highness, when the Crown Princess was leaving the house today, her carriage was hit by the Second Prince's carriage." Si Nan reported in a low voice, "Guess what the Crown Princess did?"

Xiao Ji paused turning the pages of the book and looked at Si Nan with cold eyes.

Si Nan didn't dare to make trouble again and immediately said, "The Crown Princess scolded the Second Prince. You didn't see the Second Prince's expression."

Xiao Ji lowered his eyes, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "That's what she would do."

The three of us had dinner together.

Although Zhao Ying was a girl, she had been in charge of business since she was young. She traveled all over the country and told Xie Yao about the interesting things she had experienced on the road. Even the prince listened very attentively.

At the same time, Zhao Ying was also observing how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Xie Yao got along.

Seeing that the two were too polite but not close enough, suspicions began to arise in his heart.

After dinner, they chatted for a while. As dusk fell, Zhao Ying took the initiative to leave the main courtyard. She had just left.

Xiao Ji also wanted to get up and leave.

"Your Highness."

Xie Yao called out to Xiao Ji, "Your Highness, aren't you staying tonight?"

"My cousin lives in the mansion. Please, Your Highness..."

"Okay." Xiao Ji interrupted Xie Yao's request and agreed to it immediately.

But as soon as he agreed, he felt a little regretful. He didn't live here, so how could Zhao Ying, a guest, find out?

"Thank you, Your Highness." Xie Yao replied with a smile, not giving Xiao Ji a chance to regret.

The house is warm with candlelight.

Xie Yao took a bath first, and Xiao Ji didn't dare to look at her too long when she came out.

But when he came out of the bathroom, he saw Xie Yao lying on the couch. She was wearing a rose-colored underdress, and her wrists and neck were dazzlingly white!

Zhu Qing was wiping her black hair, but now he hurried out and closed the door carefully.

There were only two people left in the house.

Xie Yao sat up, her soft black hair hanging behind her head. She sat there a little stiffly, as if tempting him to pick it.

Xiao Ji once again felt that nodding and staying... was a bad idea.

"Your Highness."

Xie Yao sat for a while and then stood up and walked towards the bed, "Go to bed."

The two lay side by side on the bed.

Xie Yao suddenly turned her head to look at the man beside her, "Your Highness, do you like children?"

Xiao Ji's body stiffened slightly, and he lowered his eyelashes. "Where's the Crown Princess?"

"If Your Highness likes it, I like it. If Your Highness doesn't like it, I don't like it either." Xie Yao's answer was quite rogue, but Xiao Ji's originally stiff expression relaxed a little.

"Go to sleep." Xiao Ji closed his eyes, but was thinking about this in his heart.

Out of the blue, the Crown Princess suddenly mentioned children... She must like children.

But he couldn't give her a child.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Ji heard the person beside him breathing evenly. He turned his head to look—

The light moonlight shines through the window lattice.

He used the moonlight to see Xie Yao's appearance clearly. It was the first time he looked at her like this.

She is extremely beautiful and has a very good personality. It is his luck to marry such a princess.

If it weren't for his body...

Sadness and regret flashed in Xiao Ji's eyes.

As he was thinking, he suddenly felt something heavy on his body. It turned out that Xie Yao, who was sleeping, restlessly pressed her legs on his waist again.

Her arm passed through her neck and rested on her other shoulder.

Warm breath sprayed on the neck and earlobes, and Xie Yao's mumbling sounded in her ears, "Your Highness..."
