Chapter 187 I agree, right?
Ye Qingyu's heartfelt words hit the mark of what the King of the Northwest was most unwilling to face. It was an indisputable fact that Qingyi saved Qingyu. When Li Qingting proposed the method of saving people, Qingyi escaped, and it was she who captured him and even forced Qingyi to do so.
"Are you doing this for this favor? I promised him that no matter what he wants, as long as I can afford it, I will satisfy him!"
"Father, I know you love and dote on me. Do you know why Qing Yi accepted your one million taels of silver? He said that by doing so, the bond between us would no longer be one of life-saving grace, but pure affection."
"What's so good about him? I really can't see it at all!"
"Father, why do you still hold a prejudice against him? You fought him the first time you saw him three years ago, and now you're doing this again. You are both the most important people in my life. Each of your swords doesn't pierce each other's bodies, but pierces my heart."
"..." The King of the Northwest felt so distressed after hearing this that he was speechless for a moment.
"Father, I don't ask you to acknowledge him. I just want him to be my friend, someone who stays by my side to protect me. I have already declined my marriage with my uncle, the emperor. At least he won't mention the matter of arranged marriage again in the next few years." Ye Qingyu persuaded the King of the Northwest step by step.
"But...this matter will definitely be reported to him. What should I do..." The King of the Northwest felt that this matter was quite tricky and frowned.
"Father, this time in the capital, my uncle may have noticed the relationship between me and Qing Yi, but he has not expressed his opinion."
"What?!" The King of Northwest was shocked when he heard this.
"This son is just a guess. If you know about this matter here, how could the emperor's uncle not know about it? Moreover, Qing Yi is a member of the Demonic Cult and has a special status."
"In that case, let's just go and see. Take care of yourselves. Especially you, Qingyu, your father must remind you again that Qingyi is unreliable. Although he seems easy to get along with, he will definitely be a heartless person once his interests are touched. Your father is really worried that you will be hurt." The King of the Northwest warned again solemnly.
"Father, do you think my son is a three-year-old? I'm quite capable, so how could I let him bully me?" Ye Qingyu smiled calmly. He certainly understood his father's concerns. Qing Yi had already shown his heartless side in this matter. But what did it matter? So Ye Qingyu pretended not to understand and responded in a different way.
"Oh, forget it, your father doesn't care anymore. You can take care of yourself." The King of the Northwest sighed and felt secretly in his heart that it is unchanging that a son cannot be kept when he grows up.
"Father, I'm sorry to have caused you so much worry." Ye Qingyu knelt down again after saying this. He understood that his father was finally no longer an obstacle between him and Qing Yi.
"Qingyu, regarding the drugging matter...father..." King of the Northwest said, reaching out to support Ye Qingyu.
"Father, this matter has passed. I don't blame you, but Ruyi lost his life in vain..."
"Well, give her a proper burial." said the King of the Northwest.
For these dignitaries, Ruyi was ultimately just a maid and a servant in the palace. Although they felt regretful, they were not too sad.
Only Ye Qingyu felt guilty towards Ruyi. If it weren't for him, Ruyi wouldn't have lost her life. But he was afraid that Qingyi would be jealous, so he didn't dare to show his guilt.
After Ruyi was buried, Ye Qingyu went to pay tribute alone, which was considered an honor for Ruyi. After all, in the royal family with strict status hierarchy, how could a master pay tribute to a maid?
It is said that under the face of the Martial Saint and the Demon Lord, the King of the Northwest had the rare opportunity to sit down and have dinner with Qing Yi.
Qing Yi was very clever. He found an opportunity, stood up, and respectfully bowed to the King of the Northwest, saying, "Your Majesty, Qing Yi is young and ignorant. I have offended you. Please forgive me."
The King of the Northwest couldn't ignore Qing Yi's politeness, but he couldn't find the polite words to forgive him, so he said, "I heard that you drank a lot of my Feixia. Go pick some ingredients for me tomorrow. When you have enough, you can drink Feixia again."
"Ah? There are plenty of people in the palace, why do you have to let me pick them?" Qing Yi was dissatisfied. What's wrong with drinking some wine? Is the King of the Northwest so stingy?
"There are plenty of people in the palace, but you are the only one who drinks Feixia like this." The King of the Northwest snorted coldly.
"As a prince..." Qing Yi was about to complain when he felt the corner of his clothes being pulled. He looked up and saw Xiao Ye.
"I'll help you." Ye Qingyu said in a low voice.
"Oh!" Qing Yi fell silent.
Everyone present was a martial arts expert, so naturally they all heard it, but everyone pretended not to hear. Isn't that great?
"Master, are you and Senior Demon Lord coming to Wangcheng for tourism or for some business?" The King of the Northwest was too lazy to look at the two men, and then looked at his own master respectfully.
"What could it be? I just came back from the Western Regions and was just taking a walk. I thought I hadn't seen you in years, so I came to see you."
"Then Master, you have to stay here for a few more days." The King of the Northwest looked earnest, and his words were full of the intention to keep him.
Wu Sheng nodded slightly, a gentle smile appearing on his face: "Well, I will stay for a while longer."
The Martial Saint felt that he was getting old and might pass away at any time. Because of this, he missed his disciple more and more, so he was willing to stay in this Northwest Wangcheng for a while and enjoy this rare time together as a master and disciple.
Why did the Demon Lord come to Xibeiwang City? He didn't have any disciples here. It turned out that Li Qingting's master, Li Zuo, had once saved the Demon Lord's life. When the Demon Lord heard that the Martial Saint was coming to Xibeiwang City to visit his disciple, he joined them to pay tribute to his deceased friend.
When the two arrived in Wangcheng, they met Mu Bai and Qingfeng one after another. After chatting, they found out that they were old seniors. They returned to the mansion together, and then an unexpected scene happened: the King of the Northwest wanted to kill Qing Yi.
Because the Martial Saint was present, the meal was quite peaceful. The King of the Northwest nodded in agreement to everything the Master said. Everyone in the palace had never seen their own prince so good-tempered. They were all secretly amazed: "The prince can actually be so well-behaved and obedient at times. It's truly eye-opening!"
After the meal, the King of the Northwest chatted with the Martial Saint, while the Demon Lord went to pay homage to the genius doctor Li Zuo under the guidance of Doctor Lin.
