Originally, after Wei Jie refused to let him go to the Fengwang Mansion, he was a little worried about where to live. Although there was a specially arranged palace, he did not like living with so many people. Unexpectedly, when he met the emperor, he just mentioned it as a complaint, and this guy actually agreed.
The agreement came without warning, which made him feel a little uneasy when he saw him nod in agreement. How come he changed his mind in front of the emperor after he refused so readily before? Is there some conspiracy?
Therefore, when the two of them left the palace, Yu Hen still tilted his head to look at someone, as if he had a thousand words to say, but he didn't know where to start.
If he didn't mention it, Wei Jie naturally wouldn't ask. The two of them sat there awkwardly until they arrived at the gate of Fengwang Mansion. When Wei Jie was about to get off the car, Yu Hen suddenly said, "Why do I always feel like something is wrong? Would you be so kind to take me in?"
Wei Jie turned around, his tone was indifferent, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry: "You can also go back to the palace."
After saying this, he got out of the car and went straight into the mansion, completely ignoring Yu Hen who had come from afar, as if taking him in was not his original intention.
Being treated so coldly by the master, if it were someone else, they would definitely turn around and leave, but who is Yu Hen? He has always been famous for being thick-skinned. What's more, he knows his opponent very well. Wei Jie treats the emperor like this, so how can he be treated like this?
He immediately stopped hesitating and got off the carriage happily. However, when he arrived at the gate, he was stopped by Qing Ye with a cold face: "Prince Yu can go in with your guards and eunuchs. Please forgive me that the Fengwang Mansion will not accept others."
When Yu Hen heard this, he instantly knew what was wrong. He looked at his luxurious carriages and beauties behind him, and his eyes twitched uncontrollably: "You, say it again?"
"I believe Prince Yu is very clear about the situation in the Phoenix Palace. People and things that my master doesn't like will never be allowed in."
For example, women, those messy pets and actors, and even his luxurious guard of honor and royal guards, none of them could enter.
"What kind of talk is this? Your master doesn't like it, but my master is used to it. If you let him bring three people in, who will take care of my master's food and daily life?"
Xiao Jinzi was also shocked by the harsh conditions. He spoke his master's mind immediately, but he seemed to have forgotten one thing...
Qing Ye glanced at him and said indifferently, "My master said that if Prince Yu can't stand it, he can leave and go to the temporary palace. It's very big there, and it can accommodate all of Prince Yu's people. You can live however you want. If you need anything, my master can do his best to satisfy you. But this is the Fengwang Mansion, and my master is the owner here. All the rules are naturally his. If you are dissatisfied, you can leave on your own."
"You, what kind of hospitality is this?" Before Xiao Jinzi could finish her words, Yu Hen hit her on the head with a fan: "Go, arrange those people to the temporary palace. Qing Ye is right. Don't you understand the principle that guests should follow the host's wishes? Since you are here, you should make the best of it. This prince can live in the Phoenix Palace in his lifetime. This is a blessing that I have cultivated for several lifetimes. Can the Phoenix Palace be short of people to serve? Go, go, go and arrange it quickly."
Little Jinzi didn't expect that the master who was so picky would agree to it. After fully understanding his master's character of sticking to his word and knowing that it was useless to say more, the most caring little cotton-padded jacket beside Prince Yu could only leave with Black Fox and Black Panther in a huff even if he was unhappy. Before leaving, he did not forget to glare at Qingye fiercely: "Humph, what kind of master, what kind of servant!"
Qing Ye glanced over, and Xiao Jinzi was immediately frightened and left with a chill on his spine. From a distance, he could still hear him complaining non-stop. Qing Ye turned his head expresslessly and said to Yu Hen respectfully, "Prince Yu, please, my master is waiting."
Yu Hen raised his eyebrows in surprise, and the hand that was fanning him suddenly paused, "Oh, this Phoenix King is quite interesting. It seems that he has calculated that this prince will come to visit?"
Qing Ye said calmly, "As Prince Yu said, there are not many opportunities to spy on Prince Feng's Mansion."
Yu Hen's mouth twitched, and he looked at Qing Ye, "What Xiao Jinzi said is right, you are such an eyesore!"
Qing Ye made a gesture of invitation with an expressionless face and was unwilling to say anything.
Yu Hen chuckled and walked leisurely into the main gate of the Phoenix Palace. As soon as he walked in, he was overwhelmed by the low-key and solemn atmosphere. Everyone says that the handwriting reflects the person, but in fact, he believes that the palace reflects the person.
Especially along the way, he didn't see even the shadow of a woman, all of them were men in black armor. The whole palace seemed to be filled with this masculine dark atmosphere. What made him even more speechless was that the expressions of these people were exactly the same as that of the paralyzed face. It was so deserted. No wonder all the pores on his body stood up when he walked in.
As for the plants and trees in the palace, there was nothing fancy or colorful. Everything was in order and rigid. As Yu Hen looked at them, he lost interest and felt extremely disappointed.
Even when he looked around, he didn't find anything special. He was originally very interested, but when he walked to the front of the restaurant, he was too tired to walk. He sat down on the stairs in front of the restaurant and waved to Qing Ye beside him: "Go, go, bring me some side dishes and a pot of wine. I will eat here."
Qing Ye looked at the crown prince who had no image at all, sitting in front of the door with his head hung like a beggar. There was nothing but admiration and speechlessness in his eyes. He subconsciously turned his head and looked at his master who was sitting in the main hall waiting for someone. To his surprise, his master actually nodded.
Agreed?
No way?
Over the years, this was the first time they had encountered a big shot like Prince Yu who didn't care about his own image at all. However, since his master had agreed, what else could he say? He waved his hand and a servant came forward to bring a small table and stools. Soon, more than a dozen dishes were served. Yu Hen took a quick look and saw that they were all specialties of Siyou Kingdom. to turn down the emperor's welcoming banquet and come here to eat.
Although he may be a little sloppy now, he did not forget to wash his face and hands before eating.
Looking at the height between the table and the ground, Yu Hen did not sit on the stool, but sat comfortably on the steps. Before taking the wine to his mouth, he suddenly remembered something, turned his head to look at Wei Jie who was sitting in the main seat and eating slowly, and couldn't help but frowned: "What's the point of you being there alone? Come on, come here quickly, let's raise a toast to the bright moon together, isn't it happy?"
Wei Jie glanced at the gloomy night sky without any expression. Yu Hen coughed awkwardly. Okay, he forgot that it was cloudy tonight. There was no moon, not even stars. But he just felt that it would be a special experience to have a meal on the steps of the Phoenix Palace. It was a pity that the host didn't seem to agree!
Yu Hen looked at Wei Jie who ignored him and rolled his eyes in annoyance: "Tsk~ You really don't know how to enjoy yourself. If you don't come, do I still ask you to do it?"
Wei Jie glanced at him calmly and said quietly, "I heard that Prince Yu has a serious mysophobia, but from what I can see now, it seems that he is just like this."
Yu Hen snorted, sipped the wine, smacked his lips, and squinted his eyes with an endless aftertaste, saying: "What do you know? Life is short, you have to enjoy when you should enjoy, be hypocritical when you should be hypocritical, and be hard-hearted when you should be cruel. If you just stick to the rules and do everything for others to see, what's the point?"
"This prince's life is his own, so he can live his life as he pleases. Look at the great view here. There are pavilions in front of me, and the great God of War is dining with me behind me. There are so many people standing guard around me. This trip to Siyou Country will surely bring this prince a lot of surprises, right?"
Looking at Yu Hen's natural, free and easy look, the impatience that had originally welled up in Wei Jie's eyes disappeared in an instant because of his muttering, and his cold heart seemed to show signs of gradually melting.
Yu Hen was indeed different from what he had imagined. How did he manage to control himself so easily?
"Oh my god, my Lord, why are you sitting here to eat? Is this how the Phoenix Palace treats guests? It's too cruel, too bad. No, no, I will report this to the emperor. Woo woo woo, my poor Lord!"
A sudden sharp voice broke the temporary silence between the two. Yu Hen slowly raised his eyes, glared at the crying eunuch with dissatisfaction, and slammed his chopsticks on the table: "Shut up, what are you arguing about? Can't you see that I'm having a meal? You disturbed my appetite, so you have to sleep in the stable tonight."
Xiao Jinzi's voice stopped abruptly because of this sentence. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and rubbed his eyes. When he was sure that his grandfather was really sitting at the door, eating pitifully, his nose, which was already sour, could no longer be controlled. Seeing that the flood was about to burst the dam, Yu Hen threw a cold knife at him in annoyance: "This is a good place chosen by your grandfather himself. How is it? Not bad, right?"
Xiao Jinzi opened his mouth wide, letting the tears hang on his fair face, staring at his somewhat unreliable master in astonishment: "You, you chose the place yourself? This, this," he said for a long time without uttering another word. He looked up and Qingye glared at him with contempt. Xiao Jinzi's heart tightened and he subconsciously shrank his neck.
He said, how could such a big country like Siyou and such a famous prince not know how to entertain guests?
But, isn't their master too casual? When will this unreliable character be changed? The servants are really worried about him.
Well, since it was the place chosen by his master, what else could he say?
Just as he was about to kneel down to serve his master, Yu Hen waved his hand and pushed him away impatiently: "Go, stay where you want to be. If you can't do that, go eat something. The atmosphere here is just right, but you can't mess with it. Get out of here!"
Xiao Jinzi pursed his lips and looked at Yuhen aggrievedly. How long has it been since he was despised? Where is the sweet and caring girl? Where is the promise of sharing happiness and hardships?
Before he could complain more, Black Fox and Black Panther dragged him away. “Meal is a big deal, but the grievance of gold is a small matter!”
Maybe it was because he was currently in the Fengwang Mansion of Siyou Country and didn't have as many concerns as in Yan Country, but Yu Hen rarely held the wine gourd and complained and complained to Wei Jie one sentence after another. Although Wei Jie didn't say much from beginning to end, he would occasionally respond with "hmm" or "hum" to cooperate with the fact that there was someone listening behind him.
"You said you are already an adult, how can you keep going out with a virgin? I said if you are bad, you should pick a few smart and lovely girls to stay by your side. Look at your Fengwang Mansion, from beginning to end, it is full of men, it's uncomfortable to look at it, how can people not say you are a homosexual?"
Yu Hen's earnest words fell into Qing Chen's ears, and he was very unhappy. He immediately muttered in dissatisfaction: "You are still talking about my master, aren't you the same? Compared to my master, you are bisexual, even more dirty, capital dirty!"
Yu Hen didn't mind. It was so hard for someone to talk to him. How could he give them a cold shoulder? He put down his chopsticks immediately and said with the look of a seasoned lover: "You don't understand this, do you? Why do they say this to me and not to your master? It shows that I am better than your master in these aspects! Look at him. Although he looks a little ugly, his status is still there after all. The country of Siyou is so big, how could he not be able to find a good woman?"
"You're the one who's ugly!" Qing Chen was furious, wishing he could slap him to death, "What do you know? You don't know anything, why are you making such a fuss here?"
“Qingchen!” Seeing that Qingchen was about to jump up, Wei Jie suddenly spoke to stop him. Yu Hen looked at Qingchen, then at Wei Jie, his eyes moving back and forth between the two. That weird look made Qingchen's whole body creepy. “You, why are you looking at me like that?”
Yu Hen's mouth suddenly raised a wicked smile, and then he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, "Tsk tsk, interesting, really interesting, this trip to the Phoenix Palace really did not disappoint me."
As soon as he finished speaking, a muffled thunder suddenly sounded in the already overcast night sky. Yu Hen's hand holding the wine glass trembled, and he frowned slightly in dissatisfaction: "There are so many thunderstorms in this summer. It seems that I am destined to not be able to eat this meal!"
Probably to prove his words, the wind started to blow soon, accompanied by lightning and thunder. In the midst of the wind and leaves, Yu Hen looked even more miserable sitting at the small dining table. Seeing this, Wei Jie spoke up, "Let's retreat!"
Yu Hen did not insist, which made Qing Chen feel very disappointed. "Prince Yu, don't you think it's a special experience to have a meal in this storm?"
Yu Hen immediately smiled and said, "How about you accompany me to experience it?"
Qingchen choked, snorted, and turned his face away.
Yu Hen stretched lazily and yawned indecently: "Oh, this meal is really late, Your Highness Feng Wang, I'm sorry to bother you today."
Wei Jie nodded slightly and said, "Qingchen, send Prince Yu to rest." After he finished speaking, as if he had already become impatient, he turned around and left the restaurant, heading towards Youyue Lake.
Yu Hen watched Wei Jie leave, then glanced at Qing Chen who looked unhappy. He suddenly lowered his voice, moved closer to Qing Chen, and frowned slyly: "Hey, what's the relationship between you two? Why does it seem like Wei Jie treats you differently?"
Qingchen frowned slightly, obviously not expecting Yuhen to ask this. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Could it be that he already knew? This shouldn't be the case. Apart from the seventh brother, no one else knew about this matter. Even the person in the palace didn't know much about it. How could Yuhen know?
But Qingchen's expression fell into Yuhen's eyes bit by bit. Not surprisingly, he misinterpreted it into another meaning. He immediately opened his eyes wide and patted his thigh in disbelief: "Hey, this is a good thing, you don't have to be embarrassed, don't worry, this kind of thing is not uncommon in the four countries nowadays, not to mention your master's, ahem, such a bad temper, I'm afraid most people can't stand it? And that face, tut tut, what a pity, what a pity!"
Qingchen blinked his eyes and after being stunned for a full minute, he finally understood what Yuhen wanted to express. As someone on the side spoke more and more happily, clearly and excitedly, Qingchen's fists shrank again and again. When passing by the lotus pond, he finally couldn't hold back his foot and accidentally kicked the dignified and unparalleled Prince Yuhen into the lotus pond.
My goodness! Before Prince Yu could float out of the water, the sky seemed to be clapping and dancing, and heavy rain poured down. When Yu Hen climbed out of the lotus pond, there was a pitiful little frog with bulging cheeks on his forehead. Along with his howling, the baby frog joined in happily, and Qingchen was so happy to see it!
"Put away the filth in your head. The relationship between the prince and I is just an ordinary master-servant relationship. How can it be as dirty as you think? Today you insulted the prince, and I only gave you a small punishment. If you do it again, I don't care if you are a prince of a country. I will kill you by surprise, hum!"
Qingchen left, leaving the disheveled Prince Yu lying on the edge of the muddy lotus pond, gasping for breath. His bulging cheeks somehow complemented the pet frog on his head, which was very funny!
Although Qingchen kicked him into a tumble, Yuhen's mouth inexplicably raised an arc of interest. Just ask, how dare a small palace guard kick the prince of a country into the water? How could it be possible if there was no one behind it? Do you think he is stupid?
It seems that the secrets of the Phoenix Palace are really quite numerous!
Qingchen, right? I will remember you today!
The next morning, in the deep seclusion of the bamboo forest, Wei Jie, wearing a simple black gown and holding a long sword, drew afterimages among the flying bamboo leaves. The sword energy was so sharp that although it cut through the bamboo leaves, it did not damage the bamboo body. Every time he used just the right amount of force, the four guards watched in amazement.
In the lush green forest, no one noticed that a stranger suddenly sneaked into the bamboo forest. Wei Jie glanced over with a cold look, and dozens of fallen leaves suddenly turned into weapons, shooting towards the carotid artery on the man's neck with powerful force.
Before the intruder could stand still, he felt a strong murderous aura sweeping towards him. His reflexes immediately warned him, but by the time he reacted quickly, he was still a step too late. The last bamboo leaf lightly brushed across his arm. The seemingly soft and weak blow left a mark on his clothes, and his skin felt a tingling pain. In the blink of an eye, blood was already flowing out.
A trace of annoyance flashed across the jade-like face of the visitor. When he looked in the direction of Wei Jie, he even had a hint of resentment in his eyes: "Your Highness the Phoenix King is really not polite at all. Seeing you act like this, this prince is relieved. What about His Highness the Phoenix King being seriously injured? In my opinion, it's all nonsense!"
It turned out that this person was none other than the Prince Yuhenyu who was staying at the Phoenix Palace. Today, he was still wearing a golden brocade robe. In the green bamboo forest, the mottled sunlight fell on his clothes, reflecting with the dazzling gold lines, emitting a dazzling light. Coupled with his enchantingly beautiful face, it was hard to ignore him.
When he slowly tidied his clothes and walked out of the bamboo forest, although his arm was injured, he did not look the least bit embarrassed, nor did he feel any sense of embarrassment of being caught. I'm afraid there is no one else who is so thick-skinned.
"Prince Yu, why are you not sleeping so early in the morning and running to Youyue Lake? Don't you know that this is a forbidden area in the entire palace?"
As soon as Qingchen saw Yuhen, his inner universe instantly burned up. Especially since he came in this way, it would be strange if he could have a good face.
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
"Forbidden land? Are the guards in the forbidden land so lax? This prince has long heard that the Black Feather Guards of your Phoenix Palace are elusive, can kill people without being seen, and can fight a hundred with one. Why didn't I see them today? No, no, no, I guess this prince hasn't seen them since I came in. Where are they? Could it be that you have hidden them?"
Hide? Tsk, is that necessary? Why hide? With your temper, Prince Yu, you insist on going wherever you are not allowed to go. My master has long expected that you will appear here this morning. Since I can't stop your curiosity, why should I stop you? Of course I have to let you in. Otherwise, why do you think you can get to the island so easily?
Cut~
It’s terrible to be uneducated!
While the two were bickering, Wei Jie had already thrown away his sword, washed up, and sat on a bamboo chair beside him, drinking the refreshing and natural Bamboo Leaf Green tea as if Yu Hen was a non-existent person.
This is the rhythm of being despised by the master. If it were someone else, how could they have the face to stay? But Yu Hen is not someone else. He is thick-skinned and can make a bowl of oil. The master did not invite him, but he took the initiative to sit down. It was just that when he saw the tea that Wei Jie drank, he showed a look of disdain.
"Is your Fengwang Mansion so poor? Bamboo Leaf Green, what's so good about it? I have top-grade Yunshan Maojian, Changshan Tieguanyin, and..." Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, Qingchen interrupted him speechlessly: "Prince Yu, tea is a personal preference. You can't impose your preferences on my master. You are forcing him to do something! Also, why is this Bamboo Leaf Green bad? This is the Bamboo Leaf Green produced in Mount Emei. Don't pretend to know something you don't."
Yu Hen glared at Qing Chen with dissatisfaction, then looked at Wei Jie: "I say, aren't your subordinates too unruly? When the master is talking, how can a servant interrupt? You are good or bad, and you are still in charge. If this continues, won't you be in trouble?"
Wei Jie glanced at Yu Hen calmly, and did not respond to his words. He shook the yellow-green tea leaves in the cup indifferently and asked nonchalantly, "What can I do for you?"
The color of Bamboo Leaf Green is tender green and moist, the soup is bright yellow-green, the leaves are light green and tender, the taste is mellow and refreshing, and the fragrance lingers after drinking. Over the years, he has loved this taste alone.
"Why can't you come if you have nothing to do? Your Youyue Lake is really a great place. Not only is it surrounded by water, but from the height of this building, I'm afraid you can see the entire Fengwang Mansion, right?"
Maybe because he talked too much and didn't drink water early in the morning, Yu Hen felt his mouth was a little dry and wanted to drink some water to moisten his throat. But when he raised his hand, he found that there was only a pot of tea and a cup on the huge table. He immediately slapped the table towards Wei Jie with some dissatisfaction: "You, you are too stingy. You won't even give me water to drink?"
Wei Jie glanced at Qingchen without any expression. Qingchen was furious. Could it be that this guy was planning to stay for a long time? But he couldn't disobey the order of his seventh brother. He could only reluctantly go down to get the teapot and teacup and perfunctorily placed them in front of Yuhen: "Prince Yu, please enjoy."
Yu Hen sniffed and looked at Qing Chen in surprise, "Oh, not bad, it's actually Yunshan Maojian?"
Qingchen rolled his eyes at him, "Yunshan Maojian is not a rare thing."
If your Prince's Mansion has it, why can't we have it in Phoenix Palace?
"The tea is good, but it's a pity that the person who made it is so poor. I have to do it reluctantly."
Qingchen would not tell him on his own initiative that he had not even washed the first cup of tea. Seeing that the two seemed to have something to say, he tactfully retreated.
Yu Hen drank some tea to moisten his throat and felt much better. He looked in the direction where Qingchen left and asked curiously, "Qingchen's identity is not simple, right?"
"Are you here just to find out this?" Wei Jie glanced at him, his eyes as indifferent as water.
Yu Hen curled her lips, "Have you found out the identity of that woman yesterday?"
Wei Jie raised his eyebrows, and Yu Hen gritted his teeth and put down the tea bowl: "This little girl is as slippery as a loach. My people lost track of her. As for the identity on those clearance documents, she is just a purchaser of a Jianghu organization. Do you believe this? It's obviously fake, fake!"
Wei Jie raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile: "Oh? Just a martial arts organization? Prince Yu, are you sure that this martial arts organization is just an ordinary martial arts organization?"
"You have indeed found it out, haven't you?"
Wei Jie's expression did not change at all, and he turned his eyes to him: "Aren't you the same?"
If he could find out something, how could Yu Hen not find out? He just wanted to come to him to confirm it.
At this point, Yu Hen was completely speechless. He looked at Wei Jie for a long while before he said quietly, "You are indeed different from others."
The corners of Wei Jie's lips slightly raised, but his eyes were calm. He shook the teacup in his hand slowly: "Bamboo Leaf Green has a mellow and sweet taste, and the fragrance is refreshing. It can make people feel relaxed and refreshed, and fatigue is instantly relieved. The aroma of Maojian is long-lasting, elegant and fresh. The taste of the tea soup is very fresh, sweet and unique, and the color is fresh, clean and free of impurities. Although they are different types, they are all good teas, so naturally they are favored by different people."
At this point, he paused, then put down the tea bowl and said calmly: "You like Maojian, but you can't belittle the value of Zhuyeqing. Similarly, I don't like Maojian, but I can't stop its fame."
Yu Hen frowned slightly, looking at the tea bowl in his hand, carefully savoring the meaning of his words. After a long time, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes: "It is indeed her, isn't it?"
Apart from that man who was both valuable and famous, he couldn't think of anyone else who could have such amazing skills and yet remain unknown in the world.
Wei Jie gently picked up the tea bowl and raised it towards Yu Hen without saying a word. Everything seemed to be implied.
Yu Hen suddenly remembered something and looked at Wei Jie meaningfully: "It seems that the water of this Four Nations Grand Meeting is going to be completely muddied. Even the Fengchi Villa, which has always been low-key, has participated. What unexpected people will appear next?"
The corners of Wei Jie's mouth slowly raised in an arc that made Yu Hen's hair stand on end. "I heard that Master Lianhua from Tianyahaige has also come to the capital. Do you think that if these two meet, will they exchange ideas? As the first descendant of Mei Yuan, a generation of medical saint who is as famous as Yaowang Valley's master Ling Wuya, Master Lianhua's medical skills must be good, right?"
Yu Hen was shocked, and the smile on his face could no longer be maintained. As it gradually faded, a sharp look flashed across his eyes: "Are you so sure that woman knows medical skills?"
"Medicine and poison have been inseparable since ancient times, right?" Wei Jie's slow words made Yu Hen frown even deeper, as if he hadn't figured out something. Seeing Wei Jie concentrating on thinking for a long time, he finally shook his head in denial: "I heard that Feng Yan is only fifteen years old. Why do I feel that this is not very reliable? Even if she can use poison, she may not be able to treat it. What's more, Fengchi Villa is a place where wealth is overwhelming, which has nothing to do with medicine and poison at all?"
Wei Jie was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Yu Hen to say that. He looked at him thoughtfully, and he didn't know what he was thinking of, but the corner of his mouth curled up in an even more intriguing arc.
Seeing this scene, Yu Hen was really anxious. But when he asked, Wei Jie said, "Some things can't just rely on others to say, you have to use your own eyes to judge. Okay, I still have to go to the palace. Come on, send the guests away."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left without giving Yu Hen a chance to say anything.
Yu Hen was left sitting alone in the bamboo forest, his head full of thoughts tangled into a knot that he couldn't untie no matter how hard he tried.
After that, the two of them had no time to get together. Not only was Wei Jie busy welcoming envoys from various countries, but even Yu Hen was also busy and nowhere to be seen. It was already August when the Four-Nation Grand Meeting was about to begin. In addition to Yan State, which was headed by Prince Yu and attended on behalf of the old emperor of Yan State, the monarchs of Tiandu State and Mei State both attended in person. The arrival of the two monarchs instantly raised the level of the Four-Nation Grand Meeting to several levels.
In addition to the two emperors and one prince, many key ministers from various countries were also present. The political arena was full of talents. On the other hand, although the underworld was not as intimidating as the officialdom, it was also eye-opening. Many underworld organizations that did not like to participate in the imperial affairs were also present this time.
For example, Young Master Lianhua, who has always been a loner, Yaowang Valley and Lingjia Manor, who have never liked having any connection with the royal family, and Fengchi Villa, a symbol of wealth, have all attracted the attention of countless people.
If the power of the four countries was already dazzling, then the news that the Dragon Empire was about to send people to congratulate had set off a hurricane in the four countries. People were frightened, but more importantly, they were skeptical.
After all, in their memory, the Dragon Empire, which has always been high and mighty, has never taken their countries seriously. Not only that, it has even suppressed them everywhere. Now that it suddenly sends people here, no one can really tell whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.
Others may be in chaos, but the emperors of the four countries cannot. Even though they had many dissatisfactions with each other before, under the pressure of the Dragon Empire, the emperors of the four countries were wise for once and chose to stick together to welcome the arrival of the envoys of the Dragon Empire.
Not only that, even Wei Yuchen, who usually treated Wei Jie with indifference, took the rare opportunity to sit down with his good brother and discuss the next countermeasures.
Wei Jie saw such a reaction with disdain and more of contempt. It was rare for a king to be able to do this. When he was bullied on weekdays, he was quite capable and cunning, but why did he give in so quickly when it came to serious matters?
As expected, people always like to pick on the weak. Does he look so easy to bully?
"You don't need to be so nervous. Since this is a four-nation gathering, the Dragon Empire's presence this time may not necessarily be a bad thing."
"How can it not be a bad thing? The Dragon Empire has not participated in the major events of our four countries for many years. This time it suddenly came, maybe because they are afraid of our four countries' alliance and are here to divide us."
Wei Jie sneered coldly: "Do you think they can't control it without the four countries coming together? Do they need to be divided? Our every move may have been under the control of the Dragon Empire. Don't forget, how many shops in the business world of the four countries are owned by the major families of the Dragon Empire? If this is the case in the business world, what about the officials?"
Wei Yuchen's expression froze instantly, the corners of his mouth trembled, and his throat suddenly felt bitter and astringent: "Then how should we deal with it?"
Wei Jie said expressionlessly: "Just deal with it as you should. It's not like the sky is falling. Why are you so scared?"
Wei Yuchen was touched by his words and immediately shouted: "Don't be so careless when you are standing there. What do you mean by fear? Do you think this world belongs to me alone?"
Wei Jie snorted coldly, "Isn't it just you? Even if the Dragon Empire really has some ideas, it is just a change of imperial power. What does it have to do with the common people? How stupid!"
But he was too lazy to say these words. In recent times, he had wasted a lot of time on Wei Yuchen's stupidity. Since he had his own ideas, why did he need to waste his words here?
Perhaps because the topic was too awkward, Wei Yuchen suddenly changed the subject: "The Seventh Princess of Prince Kang's Mansion had an emergency and didn't come this time. Have you gone to Prince Kang to express your condolences?"
Wei Jie frowned and looked at Wei Yuchen expresslessly: "He's not here again, who should I comfort?"
