Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 675

The impact was so great that Qin Chuyao was stunned for a long time, his head still spinning, and he looked at Qin Jianxi.

"The letter also said that if I don't want to, you can disguise yourself as a man and become the emperor."

Qin Jianxi was shocked: "Are my parents' ideas so progressive?"

Qin Chuyao: "Do you want to go?"

He couldn't make up his mind right away, but if Qin Jianxi wanted to go, it would save him the trouble of deciding.

Qin Jianxi immediately shook her head.

"I have no interest in being an emperor."

Although one holds a high position and wields great power, with great power comes great responsibility. If one does not want to become a tyrant, it means that one will have little freedom.

She only enjoys running her business and making money; it makes her happy, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't. In any case, over the past few years, she has become the richest woman in Kyoto, with more money than she could ever spend in several lifetimes.

She said she was just joking about becoming a princess, and she certainly didn't want to shoulder such a heavy responsibility as being an emperor. Besides, she really had no talent for politics.

Qin Chuyao frowned, "Then what should I do?...?"

Qin Jianxi urged him, "Of course you should go! Others fight for the throne, with nine princes vying for it, brothers fighting each other, and fathers and sons killing each other. Your own father has come all this way to deliver the throne to you, and you still don't want it? Be careful, or you'll be struck by lightning!"

Qin Chuyao: "......"

Qin Jianxi: "It's settled then! I'll go write back to my parents first, then tell my grandmother, and we'll set off together for Xiqi!"

He spoke with great enthusiasm.

"I'll first bestow the title of princess upon you. Once you ascend to the throne, you'll be the eldest princess, and later the grand eldest princess. Perfect!"

......

Xiqi Ancheng, East Palace.

Xue Qian was reading a local history of the Western Qi Dynasty at the table when Xue Kui walked in happily from outside.

"Sister, do you think my outfit looks good?"

She wore a light red embroidered peach petal summer shirt with a front opening, a willow green soft satin pleated skirt, a set of red coral beaded headdress, and a pair of red gold pendants inlaid with garnets.

Xue Qian looked up from her book and glanced at Xue Kui with a smile.

When Xue Kui was a palace maid, she had never worn such fine clothes. Now, her attire was quite splendid, and it was indeed a sight to behold at first glance.

However, upon closer inspection, one can sense that Xue Kui is rather petite and has only delicate features, making her unsuitable for this bright and glamorous style.

Xue Qian had always doted on her younger sister since they were in the palace. Ever since Xue Kui moved into the East Palace to live with Xue Qian, they had eaten and slept together, and Xue Qian let Xue Kui choose her clothes and jewelry without any distinction between them.

The jewelry Xue Kui is wearing now belongs to Xue Qian, and the clothes she wears are also altered from Xue Qian's.

Xue Qian naturally wouldn't directly say that this outfit didn't suit Xue Kui, but simply smiled and said, "It looks good. Kui'er didn't have this kind of appearance before, but now that she's dressed up, she looks absolutely stunning."

Xue Kui used to be a palace maid, and she was already grateful to get one or two new outfits each season. Naturally, she didn't have a sophisticated sense of style and didn't know anything about fashion matching.

But it doesn't matter, now that the two sisters are living a better life, they can slowly teach Xue Qian.
