Chapter 313 Image Collapse
Yelu Haoran's drooping eyes instantly perked up: "Is this information accurate, my prince?"
"Every word my son said is true!"
No matter how tightly the Xuanyuan royal family keeps this news secret, there will always be some clues. Besides, things like this cannot be concealed even if they want to!
The Xuanyuan Dynasty today, without the war god Prince Xuanyuan Yi, is like a grasshopper in autumn, and will not be able to jump for long.
Yelu Qi wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make a contribution!
If he can make good use of this opportunity, he will stand out among the princes and become the prince with the greatest hope of inheriting the throne.
"I am willing to lead the troops to conquer Xuanyuan and expand the territory of Beidi. I sincerely ask your Majesty to grant me this favor!"
Yelu Qi said this, lifted his robe and knelt directly on the throne room!
Upon seeing this, Prince Yongyi quickly stepped forward and said, "Father, the battlefield is brutal and ruthless, and I've never been there before. Besides, I'm young and impatient, and I'm afraid I'm not up to the task. This matter is of grave importance, so let's hold it over until tomorrow morning!"
If this had happened in the past, Yelu Haoran would have definitely agreed. Perhaps it was because Xuanyuan Yi, a major worry in his heart, had been gone over the past six months, so he relaxed a bit.
In his eyes, the Xuanyuan Dynasty would sooner or later be in the hands of the Beidi people, so what did it matter whether it happened sooner or later?
Now listening to what Prince Yongyi Yelu Feng said, he felt that there was nothing wrong with it and it made sense. After all, his second son had been making mistakes time and again, which really made him uneasy.
Such an important matter cannot be decided hastily.
"I'll listen to your eldest brother. You two brothers are both thinking about the interests of Beidi. I'm very pleased. Second brother, you should go back and have a good rest today. As for other matters, we'll discuss them in the morning court tomorrow!"
After saying that, he waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.
Yelu Qi's face was extremely grim. He walked out of the palace like this. He called his confidant over and said, "Tell me everything that happened during my absence, no matter how big or small."
When the confidant saw Yelu Qi's expression, he knew that his master's entry into the palace was not very smooth, so he did not dare to hide it at all.
"Your Highness, during the time you were away from the Imperial City, Prince Yongyi came to the palace almost every day and presented His Majesty with many beauties, bluntly stating that all the beauties and treasures in the world should belong to His Majesty. This often made His Majesty very happy. In addition, since he was instrumental in suppressing the rebellion a while ago, the Emperor now trusts him even more!"
Upon hearing this, Yelu Qi stopped in his tracks, his eyes dark, "You said he was just sending beauties to the palace?"
He couldn't help but frown. His father was becoming more and more stupid.
However, I have to say that it is not impossible for me to imitate my royal brother's method!
The first person Yelu Qi thought of was Xing'er, whom he brought back home. With Xing'er's extraordinary beauty, he believed that no man in the world, or rather no king, could resist her.
If he offered Xing'er to the emperor, he believed that she would definitely be the most favored among the six palaces, and then the one favored by his father would no longer be Prince Yongyi.
Once this thought came up, it grew in my heart like wild weeds and was difficult to suppress.
Yelu Qi was still a little reluctant to give Xing'er up like this. He had coaxed her with great difficulty, and he felt a little unwilling in his heart. It was such a pity. She should clearly be his.
But he also knew in his heart that this was the fastest and simplest way to break the current situation.
His good father loves beautiful women, and Xing'er is his biggest trump card.
On the way back home, Yelu Qi's eyes flickered. After weighing the pros and cons, he finally made a decision.
After returning to his own house, he ignored Concubine Ye's men and went to Shuixieju.
As the lights come on, the waterside pavilion is peaceful.
Xing'er had a good sleep. After waking up, she asked the guards outside the door to go to the kitchen to order food. When Yelu Qi arrived at Shuixieju, the table was full of delicious food, all of which were Xing'er's favorites.
But she frowned after taking just one bite: "This sweet and sour fish is too sweet, too much sugar, and this braised pig's trotter is too salty, too much salt."
"Didn't Yelu Qi say that there would be delicious food after we returned home with him? Is this the delicious food you were talking about?"
She always felt that these two dishes were not right, they should not taste like this, and she was not satisfied with them.
Xiao Wen, who had been stunned by Xing'er's beauty for a long time, could not help but swallow his saliva at the table full of delicious food.
"Miss Xing'er, all the cooks in this mansion came from the palace."
She thought the food in this mansion was quite good, even the buns and millet porridge in the mansion tasted better than those outside.
Since Xing'er said it's not delicious, then it must be not delicious. I can only say that my requirements are too low.
Xiaowen looked at the girl Xing'er in front of him, who looked like a fairy who was not of this world. He wondered whether he should get up early tomorrow morning to collect some morning dew and nectar for Miss Xing'er.
Yelu Qi, who was outside the door, just happened to hear this. With a smile on his face, he patiently coaxed her, "Sister Xing'er, since it doesn't suit your taste, just take it away and let them make it again!"
Seeing Yelu Qi, Xiao Wen quickly stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Your Highness!"
Xing'er felt like she'd been tricked, cheated, but looking at the table full of food, she straightened her face and said, "Forget it, let's not waste food. It's shameful to waste it!"
She stared at Yelu Qi with sparkling eyes: "I can choose not to eat, but you can't. You have to eat them all!"
Yelu Qi: "..."
"Okay!"
If it were the old Yelu Qi, he would not eat it at all, but now he only wants to get closer to Xing'er, and it would be best if he could make her fall in love with him, so that he can use it to his advantage.
So he agreed to all her requests, no matter whether they were reasonable or not, and he almost always granted her requests. He was very indulgent.
He looked at Xing'er with deep affection, his face full of doting, as if he couldn't do anything to her.
Xing'er said sharply: "Stop making those eyes. There's mucus in the corner of your eye. Don't let it fall into the food. If you eat it with the food, wipe it off quickly."
Xing'er's words successfully froze Yeluqi's smile on his face, and his cheeks kept twitching and a little twisted.
Xiaowen took advantage of this moment to look up and secretly glance at the corner of Yelu Qi's eyes. Hey!
Miss Xing'er was right. There really was eye boogers in the corners of the Second Prince's eyes. It was really disgusting.
She used to think the second prince was quite handsome!
Now she only felt that the heroic and handsome image of the Second Prince was instantly shattered in her eyes!
