Chapter 389: Fooling the Third Prince

There are no secrets in Mobei. The Fifth Prince had actually heard about this matter, but the Third Prince said it so carelessly, which made him look unhappy.

However, he is an extremely patient person. In order to protect him, the King of Mobei could not be too nice to him openly over the years, but he only took care of him a little in secret.

In fact, if he had not shown that he was more capable than all of King Mobei's descendants, King Mobei would not have gone to such great lengths to pave the way for him.

So he has survived until now entirely on his own.

After realizing that the Third Prince was deliberately trying to provoke him, he quickly suppressed his anger, clutched his chest and coughed a few times before saying with a pale face, "I was just worried about Third Prince's health, so I came to check on him. Why did you say these words to provoke me, Brother? I already knew about my humble background, and I don't need Third Prince to remind me specifically."

The Third Prince sneered, "You say it nicely, but I don't think you really mean it. Otherwise, you wouldn't be coveting something that will never belong to you."

The Fifth Prince remained calm and said, "I don't know what nonsense Third Prince heard from whom that led him to misunderstand me, but I can swear to heaven that I have never coveted anything that doesn't belong to me."

What he worked hard for is what belongs to him.

The third prince did not change his mind for a while. The people on the grassland believed in Changshengtian, and swearing an oath to the sky was a very serious matter.

For a moment, he suspected that it was the people of Daxia who were instigating discord.

Thinking this in his heart, he snorted uncomfortably: "What are you doing here? To laugh at me?"

His eyes fell on his legs. The external injuries had healed, but he was still unable to move. This made him angry and a little panicked.

So many days have passed, and all the doctors have said that his leg will never heal, but he still can't accept this fact.

Seeing his expression darken, the Fifth Prince knew what he was thinking and whispered, "I heard that the prince of the Changxing Marquisate in Great Xia also broke his leg after falling off a horse and was crippled for over a decade. However, last year he met a miracle doctor who healed his leg, and now he looks just like a normal person. I was wondering if you should visit him and ask that miracle doctor about it."

The Third Prince said without much interest, "I've heard about this, but the doctor said that if his leg had really been broken for ten years, not only a miracle doctor, but even a god wouldn't be able to heal it."

The fifth prince was not surprised by his words, as he knew how much the third prince wanted to heal his leg.

Zhao Shen's news was so widely circulated that almost everyone knew about it. However, the Third Prince had not taken any action, obviously not believing it.

His eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke in a tone that seemed to be doing the Third Prince good: "I've inquired about it. It's true that his leg was broken, and it's also true that the doctors at the time said it couldn't be cured. It's also true that he can move freely now. I think he must have met some great doctor. Brother Third Prince, instead of just dragging it on day after day with no improvement, why don't you ask him? If you ask him, wouldn't there be hope for your leg?"

The Third Prince thought what he said made a lot of sense and felt hopeful. Zhao Shen's broken leg took ten years to heal, so his leg would surely be healed in just over a month.

Thinking of this, he looked at the person in front of him warily again: "Are you so kind?"

He was not really stupid. He had doubts in his heart. No matter how eloquently the Fifth Prince spoke, he would not believe that he had no such thoughts at all.

The fifth prince lowered his head sadly and said, "I went with you on the diplomatic mission to Daxia. I was fine, but you became like this. How can I explain to my father when I return? Queen Suhe will not let me go."

The Third Prince heard his sincere tone and a look of guilt and uneasiness. He knew that he was being so humble because he was really afraid of being punished by his mother when he returned, so he didn't want to make things difficult for him.

He reluctantly said, "I understand. I will go find that prince when I have time."

The Fifth Prince finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I hope that Brother Wang can find out the whereabouts of the miracle doctor. If only our legs were healed, then our trip to Daxia would be perfect."

The Third Prince nodded and said, "That's right. Wujina herself is willing to stay in Daxia and marry. This really saves us a lot of trouble."

He was really shocked when the King of Mobei said that Wujina would not be allowed to return to Mobei.

Although he had killed many people, his own sister was not one of them.

Now he is very satisfied with the result.

The fifth prince glanced at him and smiled, "Yes, I never thought that Wujina would be willing to marry."

The third prince was somewhat disinterested: "Although she is spoiled, she has always been a kind and sensible girl."

The fifth prince was a little surprised. Queen Suhe was specially chosen by the King of Mobei to fight against the Queen. Over the years, the two of them and the tribes behind them had been fighting each other to the death.

The relationship between the third prince and Wujina is not good.

I didn’t expect that the third prince actually felt some pity for his sister.

The Fifth Prince thought about this in his heart, but his expression remained calm: "Yes, she is a good girl, what a pity."

The fifth prince achieved his goal, chatted with the third prince for a few words, then said goodbye and returned to his own room.

However, they didn't expect that their conversation would soon be known to Wujina.

When Wujina received the news, she was lying in the shade of a tree in Ji Yunshu's yard to enjoy the cool air.

She used a small silver skewer to eat bites of the melon from the white porcelain plate, praising it over and over again, "This is really delicious. It's a pity we don't have it in Mobei."

Ji Yunshu teased, "Eat less. Eating too much can upset your stomach. In fact, you can really marry a foreigner and stay in Daxia, where you will have plenty of these things."

Fruits are very scarce these days, so she asked the people on the farm to collect a lot of seeds for planting. Some fruit trees will have to wait for a few years, but melons don't need to.

There is plenty of sunshine this year, and the melons are sweeter than in previous years. After being soaked in ice water, they taste cool.

In such a hot day, no one can resist this bite.

Wujina rolled her eyes at her and said hatefully, "When I become the Queen of Mobei, I'll have people plant this in Mobei too."

It seems that this cannot be grown in Mobei.

Ji Yunshu thought silently, but she did not discourage the princess's enthusiasm.

She actually didn't know what could be grown in Mobei.

What if?

At this time, someone sent a message to Wujina, and Wujina opened the letter and read it in front of Ji Yunshu without any hesitation.

Ji Yunshu was used to it. Ever since the princess had made an agreement with the emperor, she was too lazy to pretend in front of her.

Sometimes he would even ask her to analyze intelligence.

Ji Yunshu was quite flattered by this.

For example, now, after Wujina finished reading the letter in her hand, she handed it to Ji Yunshu.

Ji Yunshu was still hesitating whether to read it or not when he heard Wu Rina say, "I don't know what my fifth brother is up to. He actually encouraged the third brother to come to your prince."

Ji Yunshu took the letter decisively.

Wujina's eyes lit up with a smile as she snorted, "You're pretending well enough. I'm afraid that idiot Third Prince really believed it."

Ji Yunshu read the letter at a glance and wanted to say that the Third Prince was not as stupid as people thought.

This guy is a bit hard to judge though.

Killing his concubine for no apparent reason shows that he is a cruel person.

But he seemed to know a little about his sister Wujina.
