Chapter 63: Poor Guy and Fool
Upon hearing this, Ji Ying just sneered disdainfully.
Lu Qiong was dumbfounded. He pointed at Ji Ying with a round mouth and said, "He he he he he he he he he is——"
"How is that possible!"
Lu Qiongshuang walked up to Ji Ying and looked her up and down. Ji Ying leaned against the big locust tree impatiently, and his dark eyes under the silver mask just stared at Jiang Xue motionlessly.
Lu Qiongshuang said: "Isn't King Ruichong called Jingye? How could it be this person?"
Jiang Xue sneered and said, "Ji Ying, Ji Ying——"
"Ji Ying-Jing?!" Lu Qiongshuang exclaimed.
She looked at Ji Ying and said, "Are you really Jingye, the King of Ruichong from the Gan Kingdom?"
"Not too stupid." Ji Ying - should be called Jing Ye, seemed to be answering Lu Qiongshuang's question, but in fact his eyes never left Jiang Xue.
Jiang Xue felt confused and terrified when he stared at her.
Lu Qiongshuang was overjoyed and reached out to pull his sleeve.
"You are Jing Ye?! You are my senior brother!!!" Lu Qiongshuang introduced herself in a shrill voice, "My master is Feng Ruoxu!!!"
Seeing that he didn't react, she thought for a moment, could it be that the master's real name wasn't famous enough? Then she said, "It's the famous Feng Ruoxu, the fairy lady in the martial arts world!!! Senior Brother!!!"
Jing Ye finally made a move. He stretched out his fingers and gently touched the outside of Lu Qiong's neck. He said, "It's too noisy."
Lu Qiongshuang was struck mute and could only continue to gesture with her hands and feet.
Jing Ye seemed annoyed and reached out his hand to touch her chest again.
Now, Lu Qiongshuang couldn't even move, his face was filled with anger, and he just stared at him with his big eyes.
Jiang Xue's eyes twitched, and she said, "She is your junior sister, dear."
Jing Ye slowly approached Jiang Xue. He was wearing a crimson purple brocade robe with dark gold cloud patterns, which made him look very noble, but he was surrounded by a very cold aura.
Xiaochun and Fudong immediately came to Jiang Xue's side. Xiaochun frowned and said confidently, "As a distinguished guest from the country of Gan, you should be meeting the emperor in the Xuanzheng Hall. You broke into the queen's bedroom without notifying her and were rude to her and my cousin - is this the etiquette of your royal family?"
Jing Ye ignored Xiaochun and said to Jiang Xue calmly, "Miss Jiang, you still owe me a set of clothes."
His voice was like broken jade, low and a little hoarse.
Jiang Xue raised her eyes to meet his gaze and smiled: "I didn't know the prince's identity that day, so I only asked the maid to leave some money. You can choose the treasures in Wanbao Tower. I think it is not enough."
"Wanbao Tower doesn't have what I want." Jing Ye said.
Jiang Xue stared at his mask, as if trying to see the true face hidden under the mask.
"I wonder what the prince wants?" Jiang Xue asked.
"I haven't made up my mind yet. When I have made up my mind in the future, I will ask Miss Jiang for it."
Fu Dong was a little annoyed and said, "This is Princess Changle of our Daji. Please be more respectful, Your Majesty, and stop calling her Miss Jiang all the time!"
Jiang Xue reached out and patted Fu Dong and Xiao Chun on the back, signaling them to move aside.
She walked straight to Jing Ye, looked up into his dark eyes, and said, "There is something I don't understand."
Jing Ye didn't say anything, motioning for her to continue.
"Is this really the first time that Your Majesty has come to Ji State? How come you seem to be very familiar with the Imperial Palace of Ji State and came directly to me?" Jiang Xue clenched her fists and stared into his eyes tentatively, afraid of missing any emotion.
Jing Ye just pulled the corner of his mouth slightly and sneered: "Your Highness may not think too much. The Ji Palace is majestic. I was just strolling around and saw that the scenery of this palace was nice, so I stopped to rest."
"As for looking for you? Your Highness is a married woman after all. Even if Your Highness is not afraid of damaging your reputation by saying such things, I am still afraid."
Jiang Xue saw the look in his eyes, which contained nothing but sarcasm, and loosened her clenched fists a little.
Hearing this, Jiang Xue was not angry, but just straightened her face and said, "According to etiquette, Your Highness should not trespass into the harem and disturb the women; according to law, Your Highness should be accompanied by the welcoming envoy in charge of receiving guests and go to Xuanzheng Hall to pay respect to our Ji State Saint."
"When the prince first arrived in Ji, he disregarded etiquette and Ji laws? Then can I think that Gan country has no intention of making friends with Ji country, so it allows the prince to be so disrespectful to our Ji country?!"
Jiang Xue spoke sternly, but Jing Ye suddenly laughed.
"Your Highness, you have such a clever tongue."
He walked to the corridor, lifted the corner of his robe and sat on the edge of the corridor, leaning against the pillar with his hands folded across his chest, and said, "The receptionist from Ji State mistook my guard for me. If I hadn't followed him into the palace, I'm afraid the receptionist would have been charged with dereliction of duty."
He looked at Jiang Xue and said sarcastically, "Why, Ji State really doesn't value the Gan State delegation so much that it sent such an incompetent and derelict person to serve as the welcoming envoy?"
Jiang Xue was angry and said, "Why don't you ask the envoys brought by the prince himself - even the introducer did not do his job well, causing the welcoming envoy to make a mistake. Is this the sincerity of your country to come to congratulate our emperor on his birthday?"
"Why is Princess Changle so angry and excited? Oh——" Jing Ye sneered, "I forgot that the chief envoy to welcome guests is your brother, and the deputy envoy is your husband. I must have offended the person closest to your heart. I am really, rude."
Seeing that Jiang Xue did not answer, Jing Ye asked again: "I wonder if the short-lived prince before the King of Gan Kingdom - in case Your Highness has forgotten, he was the one who was sent to Ji Kingdom as a hostage, Xiao Qi."
He stared at Jiang Xue's face, which had lost all color, and said word by word, "I wonder if he was often protected and loved by Your Highness when he was in Ji State?"
Jiang Xue's hands in her sleeves began to tremble slightly. She clenched her teeth and tried hard not to lose her composure.
After hearing this, Xiaochun immediately stepped forward to support Jiang Xue and said, "Your Highness, Prince Ruichong, trespassing into the harem is already disrespectful. Furthermore, according to etiquette, you cannot meet and chat with my prince in private. Please do not stay in the Queen's bedroom again, and please do not pester His Highness any more."
"How come it's only been a short time, has the princess already forgotten her old friend?" Jing Ye spoke coldly, "Princess Changle is so cold and heartless. It's a pity that the lonely ghost has no one to care for him and no one to worship him. I wonder if he can enter reincarnation after death."
Jiang Xue suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of sarcasm.
She chuckled and said, "Reincarnation? Your Highness, you may not know this. There is a legend in Ji State that people who have committed too many sins will have their souls torn apart by hundreds of ghosts after death, and will disappear between heaven and earth. How can there be any reincarnation?"
"I would like to ask the prince a question. From what he said, it seems that he feels very sorry for Xiao Qi. But Xiao Qi has been a hostage in Ji State for many years. When did he climb to such a high position as yours?"
"We are just people who share the same suffering." Jing Ye said coldly, "We are all unpopular royal children. Is it wrong for me to feel sorry for this poor insect?"
He stood up, put his hands behind his back and slowly walked to Jiang Xue. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Princess Changle, do you want to know how Xiao Qi died? What did he do and say before he died? Do you want to know?"
Jiang Xue frowned, turned her head slightly, and said to Jing Ye: "I am not interested."
Jing Ye suddenly laughed, "Hahahaha, it seems that Xiao Qi is not only a poor guy, but also a fool."
He walked over and said to Jiang Xue, "But there is still a long way to go. Princess, you may not be interested today, but you never know when she will be interested again."
"I'm waiting for the princess to ask."
He walked up to Lu Qiongshuang, raised his hand to untie her vagina, and said to the stunned Lu Qiongshuang: "I don't know what that old woman was thinking, accepting such a-"
He looked at Lu Qiongshuang with disdain, and said, "Tsk, don't let others know that I have a junior sister like you."
After saying that, he flew away.
