"And, I heard he eats children!"
"That's terrifying! Aren't you afraid of being around him? Aren't you afraid he'll make soup out of you?"
Her Majesty the Empress: ...This little girl is so bold.
Yuchi Xi burst out laughing, "Hahahaha, no way!"
"My dad looks just like us!"
"He also has two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. My dad is super handsome!!"
"Besides, Daddy doesn't chop off people's heads every day. Who said that?"
"My father is a wise ruler!"
"My father loves the people very much!!"
Yuchi Xi worked hard to clear the name of Emperor Dewu!
Her Majesty the Empress: ...Although Emperor Dewu should not be that cruel, he is not as bad as the little princess said, right?
"Ah? Really?" Liu Wenya's eyes widened. "So Emperor Dewu is such a good person. Everyone must have misunderstood him."
"That's not the case."
Yuchi Xi praised Emperor Dewu so much that Liu Wenya wanted to meet this legendary emperor.
"I'll go to Yuan Kingdom to visit you in a while!" Liu Wenya thought about it and she would be free in a while.
Yuchi Xi responded with a smile, "Okay, okay."
She was just thinking about whether she could keep her in Yuan State and let her contribute to its development! !
Her Majesty the Empress, who was unaware of the seriousness of the problem, looked at them with a look of relief. Children are just good. They seemed to be about to quarrel just now, but they made up in the blink of an eye.
After the banquet, Yuchi Xi returned to her room. As soon as she washed up and lay down, she noticed something was wrong.
Um?
Is someone coming?
It seems that someone at this banquet conveyed the exact news that she had come to Wuqi Country.
Yuchi Xi closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, slowly slowing down her breathing. A breeze came and she could feel someone coming to her bedside.
"Is this the little princess of Yuan Kingdom?"
"Wow, she's quite cute."
"Is this the time to talk about this? What should we do now? Should we just take her away? They say Emperor Dewu dotes on this little princess, but I don't think so. He'd send her all the way here alone and only arrange for her to be escorted by such a guard."
"Take the person away, where to take him?" another person asked.
"How should I know? Why are we here to capture her?"
"Huh? You're asking me? Didn't you say you were coming? You said yourself that if the little princess of Yuan Kingdom disappeared in Wuqi Kingdom, it would definitely cause trouble for the Empress of Wuqi Kingdom!"
"I also want to ask you, why do you do this?"
"Why... Of course it's to start a war!! As long as there's a war, we'll have the opportunity to make a fortune!!"
"But war is still a bit bad, isn't it? If we get rich, others will suffer."
"You can't even eat enough yourself, and you still care about so many things? Are you a bandit or not? Why would a bandit care so much?"
Seeing that they were about to quarrel, Yuchi Xi said: ...
Are you going to arrest anyone or not?
Why are you guys arguing here?
Aren’t you afraid of waking people up?
Yuchi Xi hummed. They were still arguing with their own thoughts and didn't notice her.
"So, we must have other ways to get money, like capturing her and threatening Emperor Dewu..."
"I think you're desperate. You captured her and threatened Emperor Dewu? Aren't you just leaning over and saying to Emperor Dewu, 'Come and chop off my head!'?"
"But……"
“Don’t say but!!”
Yuchi Xi: ...
You make me seem like I don't exist!
Yuchi Xi suddenly let out a loud "Ah——" and turned over. "Pay attention to me!"
You are here to arrest me! !
Catch me quickly!!
What are you still hesitating about!!
The two were frightened by the sound and hugged each other directly, "Who who who who——"
"Oh no, has someone discovered us?"
"That's why I told you long ago, stop arguing here and take the person away first."
Yuchi Xi: I testify that you didn’t say such a thing!
"So what do we do now? Go out and see if anyone is coming?"
"How dare I?"
"Then let's...hide under the bed first?"
"I think this is a good idea."
Yuchi Xi: ...I think you two are really smart!
There was a rustling sound under the bed. They actually crawled in.
Yuchi Xi's mouth twitched slightly. No wonder Brother Jing let them in. It turned out they were not a threat at all.
Jing Huaian was on her roof, keeping an eye on the two men's actions. He thought they were going to do something, but...
Yuchi Xi closed her eyes and waited to see when they would come out to take her away, then she heard them chatting in low voices under the bed.
"When are we going out?"
"Shh, don't talk yet. Count to ten in your mind. If no one comes in, we'll go out!"
"Okay, one, two, three, four, five..."
"I told you to recite it silently in your heart!!"
"Okay, count to yourself one, two, three, four, five..."
"I'm not reading it out loud!! I'm counting secretly in my mind!! Have you ever been to school?!"
The man felt very aggrieved, "I don't have any... I don't know how to count secretly in my mind, no one taught me..."
The other person was silent. He took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in his heart. "Alright, I'll count. When I say it's okay, you can go out!"
