The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 607 - Your Relative is Here to See You

Chapter 607: Your Relative is Here to See You

A group of guards were trembling as if the Crown Prince was going to eat them. Xie Qiao glanced at Zhao Xuanjing at the side of her eye and could not help but mutter, “Are you more terrifying than a vengeful spirit in their eyes?”

“I’ve always been kind. They’re just too obedient,” Zhao Xuanjing said indifferently.

The guards were very obedient.

Yes, the Crown Prince was kind. He had given his kindness to Master Mo.

When the guards followed the him, they were treated well, but his demands were high.

The Crown Prince was not the kind of person who would kill his subordinates. However, when Master Mo was not around, he would not smile or speak. He would give people the chill. They could not help but follow the rules and never dared to cross the line.

“Get up. Don’t scare Senior Sister Mo.” Zhao Xuanjing’s lips even curled into a smile.

The guards felt their scalps go numb. Why did His Highness suddenly smile like that?

However, they still did it obediently as they were told.

“Master Zhou, the man who followed you asked you to take care of his daughter. He said that his daughter was wronged and no one helped her,” Xie Qiao said to Zhou Weizong.

Zhou Weizong was the commander of the guards in the East Palace. He only seemed more obedient and humble in front of the Crown Prince. He was someone that no one dared to provoke.

“Is there really a ghoul?” Zhou Weizong initially thought Master Mo was joking.

Xie Qiao nodded. “It’s Qingming Festival now… Your relative is here to see you.”

Everyone’s hearts turned cold.

At that moment, Xie Qiao no longer needed to put on an act. As a master, it was normal for her to be able to see these things.

Zhou Weizong thought for a moment and quickly thanked her. “What… does he look like?”

“Hmm…” Xie Qiao locked eyes with the ghoul. After looking at it, she said helplessly, “He’s more good looking than my Eldest… Xie Pinggang, but he’s also very fierce.”

With that said, Zhou Weizong immediately understood.

“He must be my uncle… When he was alive, he was a general of the Dong’an navy. A few years ago, he disappeared, leaving only my cousin in this world. My family is complicated, so it’d be difficult to take care of my cousin. She has been living with her grandparents in Dong’an…”

When Zhou Weizong finished explaining, he frowned again. “Master, may I ask what happened to my cousin? Why did my uncle come all the way to the capital?”

Was she wronged?

“He had a hard time traveling and didn’t have the strength. He went back down after saying that,” Xie Qiao said.

Zhou Weizong was in a difficult position.

How could he call the shots for his cousin from so far away?

Xie Qiao was only responsible for pa.s.sing on the message, and it was enough. Seeing that there were too many ghouls outside, she was worried that she would be too conspicuous when she saw the ghouls, so she quickly went into the Fortune Pavilion to start a ceremony.

Zhao Xuanjing led his men and left.

Xie Qiao chanted the incantation for the spirits to be released. This time, there were more ghouls than during the Winter Clothes Day. She was also nervous, afraid that the formation in the Fortune Pavilion would not be able to stop those ghouls for too long.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly for the souls of the dead.

Her const.i.tution was special. The spirits would not disturb the living if they possessed her, so they would not harm her good karma at all. That was why the spirits wanted to look for her.

Layers upon layers of talismans would eventually be torn.

However, this time, she was especially well prepared.

The reason being in the past few months, her body and energy were stronger than before. When she had time, she would inscribe talismans. She had acc.u.mulated so many regular talismans that she could not count them. Nothing should happen again.

Moreover, this time, her body was better and her spirit was slightly more stable. An ordinary spirit probably would not be able to enter.

Thinking back to the great loss she had suffered during the Winter Clothes Day, Xie Qiao thought she had to be more careful.

The talismans were placed under her clothes. Her clothes were bulging, she looked like she had gained weight.
