Xie Niushan was extremely excited. His eyes lit up as he looked at the imperial edict.
The royal family must be blind to actually wanting to be in-laws with him. When they had entered the capital, the Emperor disliked him! They had changed so quickly!
However, it was great news to them!
His daughter’s future was bright. She would be married to the Crown Prince!
Outsiders said that the Crown Prince was cold and heartless, and that he was a cripple who would go into exile sooner or later. He had heard of that before, but he did not believe them. Outsiders even said that he, a bandit, was terrible?! Did he admit that?!
For the Crown Prince to take a liking to his daughter, it seemed he had excellent taste!
Back then, since he dared to come to the capital, he had asked around in advance. The Emperor and the Crown Prince were both good, and they were reasonable. Otherwise, it would be crazy for him to dare appear in front of the royal family!
Hence, the Crown Prince wanting to marry his daughter was definitely not a joke. His eldest son followed the Crown Prince around to run errands. He knew that the Crown Prince was a good person and could be trusted.
No matter how he looked at it, his daughter was the lucky one.
“My dear wife, our daughter has really found a treasure!” Xie Niushan muttered as he wiped away his tears.
The eunuch who passed the imperial edict sat for a while before returning. Along the way, he was thinking about what to report.
Was the Xie family happy or upset?! Why did Xie Niushan seem to be angry?!
It was strange!
After pondering for a while, the eunuch came to a realization.
The royal family was overjoyed. He could not jinx it, especially the Crown Prince. This was the first time he had requested for an imperial edict to bestow a marriage. If he knew that the Xie family was upset, what would happen?
Therefore, after returning, the eunuch tried his best to rationalize all of Xie Niushan’s actions.
He was so happy that he lost himself and almost fainted!
The Xie family was indeed filled with joy. After the eunuch left, Xie Pinggang took the initiative to reward the entire family with silver. It was rare for Xie Xi to not be stingy and generously give out silver.
‘Looking at this useless girl.’
Xie Pinggang sighed. “Your luck is really not bad. The Crown Prince is such a good person, yet you got him. However, there are some things that I want to remind you about…”
Xie Qiao sat obediently.
Xie Pinggang said with a serious expression, “You are close to Master Mo, so you’ll find out about this sooner or later. It’s better for me to tell you so that you won’t have a knot in your heart in the future.”
Hearing that, Xie Qiao knew what he was going to say.
She just pretended to be ignorant.
“This Master Mo and the Crown Prince are from the same sect. I heard that Old Master Li was a busybody to have arranged a marriage for the two of them. The Crown Prince initially wanted to marry someone else, but Master Mo refused to marry. That’s why the Crown Prince chose you. However, the senior sister and brother are close, so it’s inevitable that they will spend time together in the future. When it happens, don’t be jealous. Understand?” Xie Pinggang advised.
He was not standing on Master Mo’s side, but he wanted his sister to be more open-minded.
Master Mo had a good character, and the Crown Prince was also reliable. There was no way he would do anything behind her back.
Therefore, he could not let his sister be in unnecessary pain on her own.
Xie Qiao nodded in all seriousness. “I got it, Eldest Brother.”
Xie Pinggang snorted in satisfaction, and then an image flashed through his mind.
“Speaking of which, this Master Mo… seems to have called me Eldest Brother before…” Xie Pinggang frowned and thought for a while, but he was not sure.
When he was in the suburbs of Xun County, he seemed to have heard that. It was soft, but it was not clear.
He did not know whether she said ‘eldest brother’ or she called his name…
It was the imperial bodyguard around the Crown Prince who reminded him when they had nothing to do at night.
