Chapter 269 You're Looking for Death
Qi Junqi: "Okay, then you should have a good rest, but... Murong Heli, what are you going to do with him?"
"If you really don't like him, I will help you get rid of him. Although the Li Kingdom is powerful, the Dayi Kingdom is now capable of competing with it."
Qi Yue lowered his voice and said, "Brother, Dayi has only been stable for a short time, and the court and military are still very inexperienced. We should avoid unnecessary battles if possible."
Qi Junqi agreed with this and felt relieved, but also conflicted.
"My sister is right, but I don't want to let you down..."
She raised her eyebrows slightly, a hint of teasing appeared at the end of her eyes, and she chuckled, "Murong Heli wants to marry a princess of Dayi, so just give him one."
Qi Junqi's eyes lit up: "What the imperial sister means is..."
An hour later, Shao Siyan just came out of the next room.
The door of Qi Yue's room happened to open again, and Qi Junqi walked out.
"Your Majesty."
He said in a deep voice: "Take me to see the Imperial Master."
Shao Siyan pursed his lips and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
The remaining men watched the two of them go into the next room, and their eyes returned to the wide-open door. Even Murong Heli, who was hiding behind a tree, couldn't help but take a few steps forward.
He Xiang said in a clear voice: "The princess invites you, please come in one by one."
Hearing this, everyone's brows lit up with joy. Although everyone wanted to be alone with the princess, they respected her wishes more.
When it was Murong Heli's turn, He Xiang stopped him again and said with a smile, "Prince Murong, please stop. The princess will invite you later."
He originally wanted to force his way in, but he immediately gave up the idea when he heard the second half of the sentence. Xie Lao, who was half a step behind, also loosened his fist when he saw this.
About a cup of tea later, the door was opened again.
"Prince Murong, the princess invites you."
Murong Heli asked in confusion: "Should I go in now? They don't need to come out first?"
He Xiang smiled faintly: "The princess said that if the prince does not want to go in, then please go back."
He just felt a lump in his chest and suppressed his emotions.
"Of course I am very willing to go in!"
He Xiang and Leng Yue looked at each other, then stepped out of the house and closed the door.
Murong Heli walked over the screen, entered the house, and then went to the innermost room.
Qi Yue's upper body was lazily leaning in Gu Qingyu's arms, with his legs resting on Gui Ta'an Zhen's legs. Jiang Lin was sitting on the soft stool at the end of the couch holding a storybook. Xie Yun was half-kneeling in front of the couch, feeding Qi Yue candied fruits from time to time. Xie Lao was standing aside holding a bamboo whip, staring at him hungrily.
As soon as Murong Heli entered, he was stared at by everyone. He was like a white rabbit that had escaped from a wolf's den, and his whole body was covered with goose bumps.
"Yuer, this is..."
Xie Lao picked up the bamboo whip and swung it, making a sound of breaking through the air.
"Call me Princess."
Although the tone was light, the meaning that it could not be refused was obvious.
Murong Heli felt his scalp tighten, and gritted his teeth and said, "What? Are you planning to lynch me?"
Qi Yue didn't even glance at him, and said lightly: "If you can't stand it, just go away. I never force anyone to do anything."
"I am just worried about Yue'er's safety. I haven't seen Yue'er for such a long time and I miss her very much."
His eyes were slightly red, and his face was full of grievance, "Yuer is so defensive, I'm so sad..."
Qi Yue opened her lips and took another candied fruit, her eyes drifting across his face.
Then a light laugh escaped from the corner of his lips, "Men don't shed tears easily, but they do when they are sad."
After she finished speaking, she paused, and continued with a smile: "Since you are so sad, why don't you cry for me?"
After he finished speaking, everyone present looked at Murong Heli's face again.
Xie Yun put down the candied fruit and took Qi Yue's hand and placed it on his chest.
"Princess, I am also very sad and my heart aches. Please comfort me."
Jiang Lin frowned and scolded: "Xie Shidu, you are overstepping your authority."
Gu Qingyu, like Qi Yue, couldn't help but sneer out loud. Seeing this, he frowned and quickly took the jade hand back.
"Princess, don't touch him, he has no flesh on his body. Touch me, I have flesh."
This sentence instantly offended the other three men in the room.
Why didn't he include Murong Heli? Because he thought he still had some flesh on his body.
He even deliberately puffed out his chest like Xie Lao did.
Qi Yue pressed his chest muscles, then raised Xie Yun's chin and said with a smile, "You all have your own advantages and strengths, and I like them all, so there is no need to compete for first place in a small aspect."
Guita Anzhen, who was originally very self-conscious about his body shape, raised his head again upon hearing this, looked at Murong Heli with a slightly provocative look, and continued to massage Qi Yue's legs with his hands.
After receiving the look, Murong Heli instantly wanted to skin him alive.
How dare a useless foreigner challenge him?
Guita Anzhen leaned closer to her and said aggrievedly, "Princess, the way Prince Murong looks at me is so scary, does he want to kill me?"
Murong Heli hurriedly withdrew the resentment in his eyes and put on the misty light again.
"Yuer, I didn't. He is deliberately trying to alienate our relationship."
Qi Yue touched Guita Anzhen's face and said, "Be good, we are not afraid."
Then he turned around and looked at the puppy pretending to be pitiful.
"Murong Heli, tell me, what will it take for you to go back to your Li Kingdom?"
Seeing the coldness in her eyes, the grievance on his face became much more real.
But in front of so many rivals in love, he must fight for this title!
"As long as you agree to marry into my country of Li and become my crown princess and future queen mother of Li, I will go back."
"What if I say no?"
“Then…” Murong Heli tensed up, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth and said, “The friendship between Li and Dayi will be ruined. If the two countries go to war in the future, the people will suffer. With the strength of Li, the only ones who will suffer are the people of Dayi.”
"The eldest princess can tell which is more important."
"How outrageous!"
Xie Lao raised the bamboo whip and lashed at him, but Murong Heli was prepared and dodged quickly, and the sound of breaking air fell again.
"stop--"
Qi Yue pressed Gu Qingyu who was also agitated, "A Luo, step back."
Murong Heli curled his lips and smiled, "If something happens to me in Dayi, the war between the two countries will only be brought forward. Anyway, even if I am gone, there is still a prince in Li who can inherit the throne. My brother will definitely avenge me."
Jiang Lin knew very well that what he said was the truth, and his expression turned extremely bad.
"Prince Murong doesn't value his own life. He really is ashamed of the spirit of Queen Yue."
After he finished speaking, the smile on Murong Heli's lips suddenly disappeared and his expression changed.
"Jiang Lin, you're looking for death!"
Jiang Lin knew that Queen Yue was his Achilles' heel, but for now, he could only use this to provoke Murong Heli and force her to return to the Kingdom of Li.
