The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny

Chapter 479 - Coward



Chapter 479: Coward

To Xie Pinggang, he did not care too much about this man going to a brothel. Moreover, in his opinion, this man was not married, and he did not do anything out of the ordinary. That was good enough.

Of course, if he continued to do this after marriage, then he would have to break his legs.

He really could not find a better candidate at the moment.

The news of Xie Qiao’s short life had long spread. How could such a decent family marry a person who would not live long?

This man only had some shortcomings in terms of wealth. He was really good in other aspects. Whether it was his character, literary talent, or even his looks, there was nothing wrong with him.

He thought that if he really took a fancy to him, the Xie family would help take care of him in the future.

If he worked hard, he might even be able to become the top scorer in the examination in the future.

“How is it? Do you want to meet him?” Xie Pinggang looked expectant.

Xie Qiao looked at the person’s face and thought about what her Eldest Brother said. She nodded solemnly and said, “Alright, I’ll go with Eldest Brother’s arrangements.”

She did not understand how a person with such a face could be poor!

She had to understand it!

Xie Pinggang was overjoyed.

Finally, there was someone decent that Xie Qiao did not reject!

As long as Xie Qiao took a liking to him, he would wait for the old man to come home and immediately organize the wedding. After the wedding was done, he would think of ways to kill that old biddy. In this way, the other two children in the family would have to mourn for three years!

Xie Pinggang was in an extremely good mood. Xie Qiao kept the portrait. When she saw her eldest brother’s smug look, she could not help but say, “Eldest Brother, is there a rat in our house? This rat even stole wine. More than half of the wine I brewed is gone!”

Xie Pinggang’s face stiffened.

He dug out the wine and sent them to the Crown Prince.

There was no other way. The Crown Prince liked it. As his subordinate, he naturally wanted to satisfy the Crown Prince’s appetite as much as possible…

“Eldest Brother, do you know how much silver my jar of wine is worth?” Xie Qiao asked again.

“Silver?” Xie Pinggang said guiltily, then he said, “Eldest Sister, we’re siblings of the same mother, why do we have to divide it so clearly? Dividing our belongings… is going to create a distance between us! Alright, I’ve drunk all of the wine. If you really want to drink it, I will buy it for you.”

After saying that, Xie Pinggang immediately got up and hurriedly walked away.

This mischievous girl was shrewd. His stupid father had offended her before, and then he was cursed with bad luck.

He estimated that this girl had some means of bringing her relatives bad luck. If he stayed here now, he might have to follow in his father’s footsteps.

It was better to hide for a while!

Xie Qiao wanted to vent her anger, but Xie Pinggang was such a coward.

She and her brother were from the same mother and were both smart people. It seemed that… he had inherited his mother, Ms. Peng’s intelligence. However, he looked like his father.

Xie Pinggang had always paid attention to what Xie Qiao said.

After receiving her instructions, he went to investigate Xie Mangshan’s work the next day.

This investigation made him furious.

He thought Xie Mangshan might not be a total fool, but he did not expect this man to be so greedy to the point of courting death!

He was mainly responsible for supervising the people’s military service. The people under his supervision were actually suffering terribly. Xie Mangshan would arrange for those who could offer him benefits to be in a more relaxed station. If the people’s family was poor and could not afford to give any benefits… it was inevitable that they would be oppressed by him.

Xie Pinggang initially thought Xie Mangshan should know the severity of the situation.

He never expected that he would actually dare to do such a thing.

Fortunately, Xie Mangshan did not have the courage to do so earlier. He only started to collect bribes this year, so the number of victims was not particularly high.

Xie Pinggang immediately spoke to someone and got Xie Mangshan fired from his position.
