No Time to Play Along
Chapter 822: No Time to Play Along
Zhao Jialing thought it was quite obvious what she meant.
The Empress loved her very much. As the future wife of the Crown Prince, she should at least curry favor with her sister-in-law, right?
Even if she did not bother to curry favor, she should at least want to inquire about the Crown Prince’s preferences.
She liked Wen Lancheng. Since the Xie family had such a good relationship with the Wen family, then Xie Qiao should help her even more. They were family, so it was not good for her to be on Feng Yingying’s side, a person who knew nothing.
Xie Qiao saw the fake smile on the young lady’s face and really did not want to waste her time.
"I’m not familiar with you, so I don’t have time to play along," Xie Qiao said concisely.
Zhao Jialing was stunned for a moment, then she thought about what Xie Qiao was talking about!
No time… to play along?
Suddenly, her face turned red. It was not known whether she was embarrassed or angry.
"Young Lady Xie, you and Young Lady Feng have only known each other for a short time, right? Are you looking down on me?" Zhao Jialing said proudly.
She was more polite to her given that she was the future Princess Consort. Did she really think that she was someone important?
Everyone knew that although Xie Qiao was the Princess Consort, she would not last long. If she was unlucky, she might die of illness before she married the Crown Prince!
Even if she married the Crown Prince, how many years could she live?
Three to five years, what could she do with that?
With her current body, she might not even be able to give birth to a child. She might not even be able to give the royal family any descendants. The Xie family would only have a better life in these two years. Once the
She did not even have this bit of self-awareness, yet she was still so indifferent to her?
Xie Qiao had always not bothered about others since a long time ago. When she heard Zhao Jialing’s words, she only said very calmly, "It’s good that the Princess is aware. Since you know your own limits, don’t be disrespectful to others again."
With her current status, there was no need for her to lower her voice to a daughter of the imperial family.
If she was to name one good thing about the Crown Prince, this was it.
She was favored. There was no need for her to feel wronged.
When Xie Qiao said that, the two people behind Zhao Jialing became nervous.
Zhao Jialing was also very upset, but… she really could not do anything to Xie Qiao!
She could only watch Xie Qiao leave with Feng Yingying without even turning back to look at her!
"Princess, don’t be angry. I’ve long heard that Young Lady Xie has a cold personality and rarely interacts with others." Young Lady Zhou who was behind her said carefully.
Zhao Jialing heard it and snorted. "You don’t have to comfort me. I’ve more or less heard about her. She’s very popular in the academy. How is she like an introvert who doesn’t like to talk?"
To put it bluntly, as the future Princess Consort, she looked down on her.
"I don’t want to be angry with her. I don’t know what will happen in the future. But Feng Yingying…" Zhao Jialing was a little anxious. "I heard that the wedding is happening in August…"
It was only more than a month to go…
If it was really decided, what would happen to her?
"But we can’t make the decision on this marriage… Why didn’t you get His Highness…"
"Do you think I haven’t mentioned it to my father?" Zhao Jialing rolled her eyes at Young Lady Zhou.
The first time she saw Wen Lancheng was when he wandered the streets as the top scorer. She really took a fancy to him with that one glance, but at that time, she did not know what his character was like, so she did not dare to ask her parents to make the decision rashly.
Later, she secretly asked around.
Everyone in the industry said that he was great. She had created a chance encounter with him twice and he was indeed a gentleman.
She thought they were both single, but she did not expect that Wen Lancheng actually had a future wife in his hometown!
No matter how powerful her father was, he could not forcefully break people up…
Therefore, even if she mentioned it to her father, his father ignored her completely.. He even told her to give up this idea long ago!
