The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 172 - Imperious To Her Family

Chapter 172 - Imperious To Her Family

Almost all of the people who were leading were from the Peony Courtyard.
It made sense that they came in such an overbearing manner.
Some people from the Orchid Courtyard were scared, but most of them showed angry expressions in their eyes.
"Isn't the Peony Courtyard crossing the line to be stirring troubles at our Orchid Courtyard?"
Fang Muxue and the rest stood up. They had a rather complicated attitude toward Xie Qiao. Although they despised the Xie family's reputation, Xie Qiao was really sensible at the academy. Master Lu doted on her. Indeed, she was the most focused in class…
Although nobody knew whether she understood the teachings or not, they could feel her respect for the teachers.
Regarding the gift….
Naturally, they were rather upset.
However, that did not mean that they would tolerate people from the Peony Courtyard coming to bully her in their courtyard.
"Young Lady Fang, I'm sure you don't want a person without integrity staying in the academy?" said someone. It was uncertain whether he was smiling.
Xie Qiao knew none of them.
"If Xie Qiao forged the painting, the teacher would definitely punish her. What does that have to do with you guys?" asked Fang Muxue.
"Who knows how her eldest brother threatened the teacher?" A man stood out. "He bullied Young Lady Dong earlier. How's the sister of such a person anything good?"
When the man said that, Xie Qiao saw a strange hint of shame and anger on the young lady's face who spoke earlier.
Can it be that…
She was Young Lady Dong who had rejected her eldest brother?
However, it was not the time for her to satisfy her curiosity.
"Guys..." Xie Qiao said, "There has got to be proof to accuse me of forgery, right?"
"It was your sister who said it herself," a young lady said immediately.
Xie Qiao could not help but smile. "I only have one sister, her name's Xie Xi. Did she tell you that?"
"No, it was Young Lady Pei…" That young lady responded immediately. The crowd pushed Pei Wanyue out as soon as she was done speaking. "This is your sister, right? She saw it herself that you showed off the forged painting. You were arrogant!"
Arrogant?
Xie Qiao thought she had always been reserved.
"You guys say it yourself that her family name is Pei, so how is she my sister? Did you make a mistake?" Xie Qiao sounded casual, and there was even a faint smile on her face. She exuded a slow and relaxed vibe as she glanced at Pei Wanyue. "She's a young lady from the Pei family, and she has nothing to do with my Xie family. No matter what she does, it's terrible to smear her filthy doings onto my family."
The onlookers could not help but smirk when they heard that.
"Young Lady Xie, it was you who did something shameless, is it not? You even bullied Young Lady Pei to the point that she was chased out of the house. Are you proud of that?" said someone as if seeking justice.
Pei Wanyue held her head low. She looked very humble.
"Our Xie family can't afford to raise a person whose character is flawed and imperious to her family," Xie Qiao said in sarcasm. "You guys have crossed the line. I want the teacher to claim my innocence."
She would be a fool to fight 100 people on her own. It was useless to say so much. It would be better to get the teacher to claim her innocence.
"Eldest Sister, I think you should leave the academy yourself. Why are you doing this? Everyone will be even angrier if you do this," Pei Wanyue said immediately.
"I guess you've been struck by lightning to be saying something so foolish." Xie Qiao glanced at her with disgust.
Pei Wanyue was stunned. She felt embarrassed and furious a moment later. "Eldest Sister, I know I shouldn't have spilled this. But it'd be exposed sooner or later! You're at fault. How about this? I'll get Father to send some silver… We'll make it right!"
Xie Qiao was irritated upon hearing that.
She was eager to burn this young lady together with incense.
