The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 106 - A Plan

Chapter 106 - A Plan

Zhou Weizong was in a daze as he listened to Xie Qiao. He thought that his underlying meaning was obvious. He was asking Young Lady Xie to get the Crown Prince to be her master, no?
Although he had no idea why the Crown Prince had such a sudden idea, he had irrefutable talent. He could definitely be a teacher.
His talent aside…
His Highness' identity… was a great reliance, no?
Naturally, Zhou Weizong felt rather guilty.
Ever since His Highness' arm had been crippled, he had been in the teeth of the storm. Since the beginning of time, no cripple could take the place of the emperor…
Even he had to admit that His Highness… might become an abandoned Crown Prince in the future.
However, His Highness was still shining bright now.. Especially because he had solved such a big case, nobody could surpass the Crown Prince's reputation, no?
"Young Lady Xie, you shouldn't trade this jade with silver." It was inappropriate for Zhou Weizong to insist, or it would make His Highness seem less valuable. He advised, "There are only a few of such pieces of jade in the world. Now that you have it, you should keep it if you really don't want to get a master. With this, everyone in the imperial city will know that Young Lady Xie possesses this. When you marry one day, it'll be nice to include it in your dowry."
The unique meaning of the jade aside, its value was high!
"Think about it. The dean isn't a fool. How would he trade a one-in-a-million treasure for this jade? Those that can be traded are actually the gifts the students gave the academy," Zhou Weizong explained.
Naturally, those gifts were expensive and unique. However, compared to the jade, they were lacking.
Xie Qiao was dumbstruck.
"How can the dean not stick to his promise?" Xie Qiao frowned. "He said we could pick anything we want."
Imperial Bodyguard Zhou could not help but smile. "You can pick whatever you want. There are a few treasuries in the academy."
Xie Qiao was inwardly raging.
'So it's just a piece of useless jade!'
"Can I give this to someone else?" asked Xie Qiao.
"Why not? Oh yeah, you can give this jade to people outside the academy. If you have any relatives who are interested in being enrolled in the academy, this jade will make that happen," Zhou Weizong said immediately.
"No." Xie Qiao shook her head immediately.
She was only willing to give her things to people that she wanted to give.
Not relatives, only family members.
She had a pair of younger siblings.
Now that she thought about it, it seemed to be great to get her brother and sister a reliable master.
She was weak, so she could not learn. However, her siblings could, right?
They would definitely be happy to learn more!
Xie Qiao put away the jade. "Please tell His Highness that he can't take back the thing that he gave me. I already have a plan."
"His Highness doesn't mean that…" The side of Zhou Weizong's lips twitched.
Xie Qiao ignored him and turned around to enter the library with Qin Liu.
The library had clear divisions. Each room had a book attendant who was responsible for taking care of the books and a teacher in charge.
"Most of the librarians in the academy are talented people. They come here for the love of books, so we have to be respectful when we talk to them. If we anger them, it'll be difficult for us to get them to look for books for us," reminded Qin Liu.
Xie Qiao nodded. "Got it."
There were rules everywhere.
The Taoist temple was way laxer.
Qin Liu took Xie Qiao to the place to copy books.
The space was ample, and there were seats in the room with great light. Some teachers were attending to the ink aside. There were girls and boys copying books at the moment. The division was not as strict.
Naturally, people had to keep their silence here. Since it was a public place, they did not have to worry even if girls and boys sat together.
"Sir, we'd like to copy books." Qin Liu dragged Xie Qiao and sat at the front seat.
