Chapter 380 Betting

Qin Qixuan's attitude was very cold now, as if he didn't take Jinnan Palace seriously, or maybe he understood the power of Jinnan Palace, but he would rather die with Wen Yanya.

Zhao Shuoer couldn't help but say angrily.

"I didn't expect that even if I brought out the emperor's edict, you would still be so stubborn. Do you know that if the edict I read out in public is ignored, then you will be considered as disobeying the order!"

How could Qin Qixuan not understand this, but he couldn't let Zhao Shuoer slaughter him, even though Zhao Shuoer had helped him.

Qin Qixuan sneered and looked at Zhao Shuoer firmly.

"Do you think I'm a weak person who can be bullied? If you really read the imperial edict, I will be ready to disobey it. At worst, I will become a desperate pair with Yan Ya rather than let you succeed."

Qin Qixuan knew that Zhao Shuo'er wanted to marry him very strongly, but if he didn't refuse like this, Zhao Shuo'er would definitely be worried in his heart, which would be bad for all three of them.

This was a decision Qin Qixuan made after careful consideration. He believed that compared to marrying Zhao Shuo'er in exchange for Wen Yan Ya's safety, a lifelong couple was what Wen Yan Ya wanted more.

Moreover, Zhao Shuo'er read the imperial edict in public, and if he disobeyed it, it would have nothing to do with Wen Yan Ya.

Zhao Shuo'er really didn't expect that even if Qin Qixuan would sacrifice himself, he would not be willing to accept her proposal.

"You, do you hate me so much?"

"It's child's play! Don't you understand that the consequence of disobeying the order is death? Would you rather die than marry me? What will happen to your family if you die? Just for a Wen Yanya?"

Zhao Shuo'er looked ugly, and Qin Qixuan did not give in at all.

"What our Qin family lacks the least is children, especially my brothers and sisters are all very outstanding, the Qin family will not be without successors. I, Qin Qixuan, will die and it's not worth mentioning." "

The children of the Qin family are all very competitive, and mother is also very good at business. I don't need to worry about the future of the Qin family."

Zhao Shuo'er was almost laughed at by Qin Qixuan.

"You are just threatening me with your own life. Do you think I will really give up reading the imperial edict because of you? You think too highly of yourself!"

Qin Qixuan just smiled and shook his head.

"I am not a threat, but I can't change anything now. Since disobeying the imperial edict means death, then this is my own choice."

What a good choice! She would rather die than get married with her, Zhao Shuoer.

Zhao Shuoer was furious. She didn't expect Qin Qixuan to be so desperate and not care about the cost.

"Okay, okay, you two are really in love."

Zhao Shuoer was also unwilling to let Qin Qixuan abandon her so easily.

"In that case, I'll make a bet with you."

"How naive! If you can successfully rescue Wen Yanya from the banquet at Jinnan Palace, I promise not to bother you anymore and I'll help you. Even my brother, I can guarantee that he will never cause trouble for Wen Yanya again."

Qin Qixuan was slightly stunned when he heard this. He looked at Zhao Shuoer with some uncertainty in his eyes, but this was undoubtedly a blessing from heaven for him.

However, Zhao Shuoer would naturally not be so kind as to help him and Wen Yanya directly. If he failed to successfully rescue Wen Yanya, he would face even more stringent conditions.

As expected, Zhao Shuoer changed the subject and said, "If you fail to rescue Wen Yanya successfully, then you should cut off all ties with Wen Yanya, and never contact her again, and you must marry me peacefully." From Zhao Shuoer's

expression, it can be seen that she did not believe that Qin Qixuan could rescue Wen Yanya at the banquet, which shows how strong the military force of Jinnan Palace is.

But if Qin Qixuan fails to rescue Wen Yanya by then, he will definitely not survive alone. So whether to agree to Zhao Shuoer or not, the result is actually the same. It is better to agree. If the action is really successful, it will be once and for all.

After Qin Qixuan thought about it carefully, he nodded. Zhao Shuoer sneered.

"Okay, since you are so confident, let's see who is the final winner."

Qin Qixuan didn't want to argue with her, so he turned around and left.

But Zhao Shuoer's originally confident expression gradually turned into solemnity. Although she appeared very confident, she was also uneasy in her heart. After all, Qin Qixuan has such an upright character and likes Wen Yanya so much. If Wen Yanya is really left in the Jinnan Palace, Qin Qixuan's reaction is unpredictable. She still needs to think of some other strategies.

Zhao Shuoer pondered for a while, called her personal maid in, and whispered something in her ear.

The maid's face suddenly changed when she heard this, and she wanted to refuse: "Miss, this... I'm afraid it's not good."

The maid didn't think it was bad for Qin Qixuan, but she felt that her mistress's behavior was really damaging her reputation.

"Miss, Qin Qixuan is not worth it, he is a bastard."

Zhao Shuoer understood the maid's worries, and seeing the maid's worried expression, Zhao Shuoer's expression eased a little, but she still shook her head and just told the maid to do it, not to think too much, and not to say too much.

"Don't persuade me, Qin Qixuan is the one I've chosen, so I must marry him now, just do it."

The maid went out with a complicated look, leaving Zhao Shuo'er lying on the bed, looking out the window, wondering what he was thinking.

"So, if I really had a relationship with Qin Qixuan, I don't believe that a gentleman with Qin Qixuan's character would abandon me calmly and choose Wen Yanya, or abandon me without caring about his own life."

That's right, what Zhao Shuo'er asked the maid to do was to drug Qin Qixuan at the party. If this happened to other young ladies from official families, it would be considered shameless and unruly, but Zhao Shuo'er was a young lady who was pampered by the Jinnan Palace since she was a child. She was a character favored by the emperor. How could she be afraid of these false reputations?

Zhao Shuo'er figured this out, and couldn't help muttering to herself, as if trying to convince herself.

"Qin Qixuan, Qin Qixuan, I tried to persuade you but you didn't listen. Don't blame me for being so cruel..."

...

Qin Qixuan naturally didn't know Zhao Shuo'er's plan. At this time, he was still wandering around the Jinnan Palace, trying to find the place where Wen Yanya was imprisoned.

Too many things happened on this day, and the dinner at the Jinnan Palace started when the sun set.

The entire Jinnan Palace was decorated with lights and the atmosphere was warm.

Everyone was laughing and talking for a moment, except Qin Qixuan, who was looking at the scene in front of him with mixed feelings.

He and Wen Yanya had been through so many things, and now, behind these high walls, he and Wen Yanya were together, yet so far apart...

The confusion in Qin Qixuan's eyes gradually dissipated, but after pausing for a while, he walked towards the banquet hall again.
