The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 171 - Forced To Do So

Chapter 171 - Forced To Do So

Everyone knew too well about the Xie family.

Xie Pinggang had beaten up a Royal Academy teacher as soon as he had arrived at the Imperial City. Xie Pinghuai and Xie Xi were still at the Begonia Courtyard after enrolling in the academy for two years. They had not improved at all.

Although Xie Qiao was considered good, apart from her stunning performance in swordsmans.h.i.+p cla.s.s, she hardly showed in other cla.s.ses ever since she had enrolled in the academy.

None of them were serious about education.

Such a family was a fan of Master Yun Wei?

The doubtful voices were getting louder.

Xie Qiao could not help but be surprised when she heard those things.

"Who spread this rumor?" Xie Qiao asked Qin Liu.

Qin Liu was more concerned about her. "That… sister of yours? Young Lady Pei from Cla.s.s D, Chrysanthemum Courtyard. She said she accidentally spilled it, and she looked very troubled when many asked her about it now. I observed her. Judging by her att.i.tude, everyone thinks that the rumor is the truth."

Xie Qiao frowned slightly.

As she thought about it carefully, she did not seem to have done anything over the line to Pei Wanyue, right?

Why did Pei Wanyue insist on stirring trouble?

"Xie Qiao was that painting—" Qin Liu was hesitating. She slapped her own head when she was in the middle of her sentence. "I'm such an idiot. You're not a fool. Why would you destroy your future?"

It was not the first day she knew Xie Qiao. Xie Qiao did not have to do that at all. She was very different from what she was rumored to be. She was smart and understood everything that Master Lu said!

Xie Qiaol even taught Qin Liu a couple of times!

She was sensible. It was impossible that her family did not have 5,000 taels of silver for her. There was no need for her to forge the painting at all.

"It's not me who's destroying my future." Xie Qiao looked cold now. "If this rumor goes on, even if I don't ask for it, I'm sure Mr. Xu will stand up for me, right?"

"Of course. Some said that your eldest brother threatened Mr. Xu…" Even Qin Lu found it difficult to tell her that. "Mr. Xu was still criticizing you the day before you enrolled, but he sent you to the Orchid Courtyard the next day. Everyone thinks that he was forced to do so."

Xie Qiao could not help it as her interest was piqued.

'He was forced to do so? Some people have wild imaginations.'

Her eldest brother was not a ferocious beast!

As the duo was chatting, an uproar was suddenly stirred outside.

A bunch of people entered the Orchid Courtyard. They looked scary and unfriendly. They started making noise as soon as they arrived at the Orchid Courtyard.

"Which one of you is Young Lady Xie, Xie Qiao?" As the person spoke, many eyes in the Orchid Courtyard looked at Xie Qiao by instinct.

There were men and ladies among the crowd. All of them were students of the academy. They were young and impulsive.

When they noticed Xie Qiao, they approached her in an intimidating manner.

Qin Liu's expression changed, and she shook Xie Qiao nervously. "Let's run from the back door…"

What if they started to hit her? Xie Qiao was so weak she might die after being pushed a few times!

"I can't run," Xie Qiao told the truth.

Qin Liu's face paled. "Ah…"

Xie Qiao's health was just too pitiful.

"What are you guys doing?" Qin Liu said immediately, "Sister Xie is weak. You guys will scare her from doing this!"

Xie Qiao lifted her eyes to glance at Qin Liu. She was never too helpless in the presence of Qin Liu, right?

"Go home to rest if you're weak, Young Lady Xie. Our academy isn't for you," said one of the people who came.

Xie Qiao took a glance at them.

There were quite many people in the crowd. At first glance, there were at least 100 of them. Naturally, many of them were just here to watch. The leading ones were the few before her. They dressed rather differently, and most of them had dark peony patterns on their clothes.
