The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 1022 - Without Worries

Chapter 1022 Without Worries

Zhao Xuanjing did not care about these things. He just hoped that Xie Pinggang, that stupid cow, would understand what he meant. He did not want him to enjoy the good things alone. He wanted to leave some for this poor and weak girl.

Xie Qiao did not know what kind of case the criminal division had, so she only listened to Zhao Xuanjing and did not reply.

The carriage was swaying. Her head was already spinning, so she fell asleep in a short while.

Zhao Xuanjing’s gaze fell on her face.

He took off his yellow dragon jade token and placed it in the bamboo basket by Xie Qiao’s feet. He covered her with his cloak and told the coachman to go slower.

When Xie Qiao woke up, it was already dark.

Zhao Xuanjing had left at some point. The cloak on her body smelled of ambergris, which was quite nice.

She opened the curtain and saw that she was at the entrance of the Fortune Pavilion.

She had used up a lot of energy today. Although she had slept well just now, her body was still weak and tense. When she got off the carriage and the cold wind blew, she could not help but cough twice.

It was extremely warm inside the Fortune Pavilion.

Xie Qiao was afraid that Baili Ji would be worried, so she did not dare to slow down. After she went upstairs, she immediately released the ghouls that she caught today.

She casted a spell on these bottles containing the ghouls, so she did not have to worry about these ghouls escaping.

She did not even have the time to ask about their ident.i.ties, so she did not know if there were people from the Baili family inside.

Her eyes were solemn and worried.

“Patriarch!” When a few of the ghouls came out and saw Baili Ji, they immediately knelt down.

Xie Qiao heaved a sigh of relief.

Baili Ji was also much more relieved. He did not chat with the descendants and looked at Xie Qiao. “Little girl, it’s been hard on you. This old man also saw that it wasn’t easy for you because of this matter.”

For several days in a row, she did not eat well or sleep well. Not only did she go out to search for the ghouls, even in the Fortune Pavilion, she was also refining things like the soul incense.

Moreover, this child’s health was not good.

Even if she only spent two to three hours every day searching, she would not say much. However, she was even more attentive than him, the old ancestor of the Baili family. She was afraid that if she was one step late in searching, his descendants would be gone. “I’ve complied with Senior’s request. I’ll definitely do my best to accomplish it.” Xie Qiao said seriously, “Senior, do you see if anyone is still missing?”

What was this?

It was all for the sake of survival.

“They’re all here.” Baili Ji was very satisfied, and the way he looked at her was somewhat doting. “Didn’t I tell you the location of a treasure chest a few days ago? I reckon you haven’t gone to look for it yet, right? When you’ve rested well, you can keep that treasure chest. Don’t be shy.”

“Senior, don’t worry, I didn’t forget.” Xie Qiao was quite looking forward to it, and she did not know how big the treasure chest was.

This time, she was completing a big task. It was okay to get more benefits.

Of course, a part of it was used to acc.u.mulate good karma and to burn incense for them. Good things could not only be enjoyed by one person.

“I have many descendants. It won’t be long before the gate of h.e.l.l opens, right? By then, besides me, six of them will be left behind. The rest can be sent away,” Baili Ji said.

Xie Qiao nodded. Those who stayed behind were naturally the most knowledgeable and capable.

He had already thought it through. He would have to trouble Xie Qiao again.

Firstly, it was to teach her. Secondly, it was to dictate for Xie Qiao to help record the contents of the books. It would not be a waste of his life when he was alive. “Winter Clothes Day is just around the corner. If you have any wishes, I will do my best to fulfill them. If I really can’t fulfill them, I will wait until the Qingming Festival next year. There is no need to be in such a rush.” Xie Qiao was still human.

Although sending away the ghouls could acc.u.mulate good karma, she still hoped that she could do her best to let them leave without any worries.
