Admiration?
Qiao Xiaomai rolled her eyes inwardly, she didn’t appreciate this admiration at all.
“Your Highness, I, as a citizen, deeply appreciate your affection. However, this humble girl has no intention of traveling to the Capital City, and I hope you don’t take it personally,” she respectfully replied.
“Huh,” Yang Wang said, standing. “Don’t rush to reject just yet. I will co again in three days.”
Qiao Xiaomai’s rejection of Yang Ye had been expected. Thus, he didn’t grow too upset over her fiery attitude.
However, since he had co this far, he felt it was better to clarify particulars.
“What I’m offering is to make you a consort,” he said.
Qiao Xiaomai was…
She also stood up, looking at the arrogance in Yang Wang’s eyes. She stifled a sigh and continued to reject him, “Regardless of how long I consider it, my answer will remain the sa. I hope you don’t take it personally.”
Upon hearing her words, Yang Wang arched an eyebrow, asking, “Do you know what being a consort ans?”
“It implies that this humble girl has ascended to the heavens.”
Yang Wang watched her, “Can you imagine what that entails?”
“Eating well, dressing well, living well, not needing to work, and always having soone to serve .”
Yang Wang laughed lightly, “All of that can beco your reality, as long as you agree.”
“This humble girl has already made those things a reality.”
Yang Wang chuckled again, a trace of mockery danced in his eyes, “With those two nieces of yours?”
“Does Your Highness know about that?”
“Of course. As you are the one to whom I have offered the position of consort, I naturally need to look into your affairs,” Yang Wang replied.
“I’ve caused Your Highness so trouble.”
Yang Wang gazed at her. His eyes lingered on her petite face for a mont, and he then reached out, pointed at her, and laughed, “Three days later, I will co again.”
After leaving these words, he turned and left the courtyard.
Qiao Xiaomai pulled Qiao Dami along and went after him, politely saying,
“Have a safe journey, Your Highness.”
With Emperor Yongan and the “Daqi Law”, she had to uphold the law and show courtesy so Yang Wang wouldn’t find any fault with her.
Watching Yang Wang’s carriage depart, she led Qiao Dami back ho.
“Sister, what does consort an?” Qiao Dami asked, looking up.
Although Yang Wang was laughing before, his appearance was quite ferocious, so he didn’t dare to make a peep.
Now that he was gone, he hurriedly asked his question.
“A consort is a prince’s concubine, who is kept in the backyard, she has to abide by proper behavior, like a bird in a cage. Even though everything is fed by others, there is absolutely no freedom.”
“Wow, that’s so pitiful!”
“Yes, it is really pitiful,” Qiao Xiaomai said, smiling, as she rubbed his little head.
Only a self-righteous freak like Yang Wang would think the position of a consort was impressive.
She was asking if she could imagine the treatnt of a consort. Heck no!
In her previous life, she had lived the life of a queen!
The people in this dinsion, they’re all peasants compared to her!
Humph, it’s just a consort. Whatever a consort could have, she could earn it quickly with her own hands!
“Then what about these things?” Qiao Dami pointed at the items Yang Wang had brought.
“Leave them be.” They certainly couldn’t keep his gifts, lest Yang Wang think she was playing hard to get.
She would need to find Yang Ye about this. Her status as a commoner was far too weak, she would need soone who could stand up to Yang Wang.
However, it was almost noon and Qiao Changshun would be back from the fields soon. She would have to wait until the afternoon to go.
After reminding Qiao Dami not to tell Qiao Changshun about this just yet, she moved the items into her room. Then she went to the garden to pick so vegetables and began to prepare lunch.
After lunch, when Qiao Changshun went back to the fields, she asked Qiao Dami to follow him. Then, she gave Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi sisters so tasks, locked the courtyard gate, and planned to go to the town.
With all the carts, both cattle and donkey, being used, she had no choice but to walk.
But just as she reached the village, she saw a parade of vehicles approaching from afar.
Yes, there were cattle carts, donkey carts, and horse carts, more than twenty total.
A horrendous premonition sprouted in her heart.
