Chapter 94: Uncle is not in good health, so I won’t bother you anymore
"Hahaha..." Emperor Ming laughed. He usually disliked everyone, but it was rare for him to be in such a good mood. "Even so, we can't give up because of choking. If you don't want to marry, you can find a concubine to go back and have children."
People all say that Prince Bac Ninh has lost his humanity since he was injured by a female assassin. Even his mother said so. However, Emperor Ming was a suspicious person and always felt that something was amiss and questionable.
Maybe all this was fake news released by Xiao Mingzhe in order to confuse me and make me let down my guard against him.
After all, since ancient times, there has been no eunuch fighting for the throne, and even if he succeeded, there would be no one to inherit it.
Emperor Ming had indeed relaxed his control over Mobei in recent years, and it was only recently that he discovered that the power of the Beining Palace seemed terrifyingly strong.
"Your Highness," Yang Shijun bowed to Xiao Mingzhe and said, "The maid just now was my sister Yang Yunwan. She is the most beautiful woman in the capital."
Empress Dowager Liu and the eldest princess exchanged glances, and both could see displeasure in each other's eyes.
The Yang family wants to put the woman next to Nineteen, and their intention is obvious. That woman is definitely not an easy person to deal with.
But there is no need to disobey the emperor on this matter. After all, she is just a woman. When she arrives at the Beining Palace, just find a way to kill her.
So Empress Dowager Liu continued to stroke her long nails calmly while Xiao Mingjie was fanning her.
Before Xiao Mingzhe could speak, he heard Emperor Ming say, "Nineteen, don't refuse. I can't bear to part with such a beauty. I will give her to you as a concubine."
He had to send a woman today to test Xiao Mingzhe to see if he was really incapable.
Xiao Mingzhe frowned, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Lin Baoyue tug at his sleeve and said, "Uncle, thank you quickly!"
This is a reward from His Majesty, who dares to refuse?
Xiao Mingzhe clenched his fists and said nothing.
Lin Xingchen hurried out, pretending to be cynical, kowtowed to Emperor Ming, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I thank you on behalf of my uncle!"
Everyone laughed, but their laughter was meaningful.
Your Majesty, what you did was very unkind. You forced the King of Beining to take a woman back with him. You were really rubbing salt into his wounds!
If after a few months, the woman is not pregnant, wouldn't it be tantamount to announcing to the world that the King of Beining is not capable?
Tsk tsk, it’s murderous and heartbreaking.
"Your Highness." The little maid appeared beside King Beining again and bowed gently, saying, "My daughter Yunwan, beg Your Highness to have mercy on me."
Xiao Mingzhe glanced at the little palace maid, then winked at Xuelang: "In that case, thank you, my brother, and Prime Minister Yang for your kindness. Xuelang, take her down and settle her down."
"Yes!" Xuelang instantly understood what the prince meant by "kill him", but he still tried to use a kind tone and said to Yang Yunwan, "Concubine Yang, please follow me."
"You are wrong," Xiao Mingzhe corrected him, "She is not a concubine, but a slave."
Yang Yunwan looked up unexpectedly and met a pair of calm and dark eagle eyes.
"Since you want to follow me, you should start as a servant. You wouldn't be unwilling, would you?" Xiao Mingzhe said as he glanced at Yang Shijun not far away, who was desperately winking at Yang Yunwan.
"No, I'm willing!" Yang Yunwan looked flattered.
As long as King Beining accepts her, the most important thing now is to stay with Xiao Mingzhe, and the rest can be done slowly.
Her cousins all thought that she was only beautiful, but in fact she was not stupid at all. She knew that as long as the Yang family was there, she would never be able to win Xiao Mingzhe's heart.
Even if Xiao Mingzhe was a normal man, he would be cautious against her, because she is the daughter of a political enemy.
It didn't matter. She had the patience to wait until King Beining died, or until the Yang family fell. If it was the former, she would immediately find a way out for herself. If it was the latter, she would try to win the favor of King Beining. With her beauty and forbearance, she would surely have a chance to succeed in this life.
The Spring Banquet continued, and while people were drinking and chatting, Xiao Mingzhe suddenly realized that Jiang Xu was missing.
He knew that Fang Qianxue had taken Qilin away. He wanted to follow, but Qilin was too hostile to him, so he gave up. But now that Jiang Xu was missing, Xiao Mingzhe suddenly became alert.
"Qingcong, you stay here and I'll go get some fresh air."
After he said that, he put down his wine cup, borrowed a lantern from the eunuch next to him, and stood up and walked towards the back mountain.
The sun had already set, and the back of the mountain was pitch black. The waterfall made a huge roar, which sounded a little scary.
"Where have you been hanging out with that beast so late at night?" Xiao Mingzhe said displeasedly.
Suddenly, I saw a pair of sparkling lantern eyes appear on the mountain road ahead. It was undoubtedly a Qilin.
Looking more closely, there were actually two people in front of Qilin, Jiang Xu carrying Fang Qianxue.
"What are you doing?!" Xiao Mingzhe's face darkened, and anger and a sense of oppression instantly spread over an area of a hundred feet.
Jiang Xu was panicked for a moment when he saw the Prince of Beining, but he quickly regained his composure: "It was dark and the road was slippery. Lord Fang fell and hurt his foot. Why is the prince here?"
This man once wanted to kill him, and he still doesn't understand why.
But he was not so scared now, because he felt the warmth from Fang Qianxue on his back, and behind him was the entire Liaoyuan Marquis Mansion, the largest force in the southern border.
"Fang Qianxue!" Xiao Mingzhe's eyes swept past Jiang Xu and looked at the woman on his back, "Get down!"
Fang Qianxue was startled by his roar, and Qilin also began to bare its teeth and roar at him.
Fang Qianxue turned back to comfort Qilin, and said to Xiao Mingzhe in embarrassment: "I really fell and hurt myself. Now I can't walk."
"If you can't walk, I'll carry you!"
"I dare not trouble you, Your Majesty." Fang Qianxue said, "Let the young marquis carry me on his back."
"I'm your uncle, why do you let outsiders carry you but not me?" If the Qilin beast hadn't been there, Xiao Mingzhe would have thrown away the lantern in his hand and rushed over to snatch the person.
"My uncle is not in good health, so I'd better not trouble you." Fang Qianxue hugged Jiang Xu's neck tightly.
Compared to Xiao Mingzhe, Jiang Xu is kinder after all.
"..." This time Xiao Mingzhe didn't care about so much. He just stretched out his arms, pulled Fang Qianxue off Jiang Xu's back, and held her horizontally.
"???" Fang Qianxue looked at the almost devilishly handsome face approaching, heard his violent heartbeat in his chest, and was so shocked that she forgot to speak.
"Your Highness!" Jiang Xu wanted to stop him but he was no match for him.
Instead, Qilin followed angrily and blocked the front of the mountain road, meaning that if Xiao Mingzhe didn't put Fang Qianxue down, he would have no chance of passing.
"You...should put me down and let me walk by myself." Fang Qianxue said.
"Tell it to get out of the way," Xiao Mingzhe hugged her tighter, lowered his head and breathed a warm breath into her ear, but threatened her, "Otherwise I will kill Jiang Xu."
Fang Qianxue saw the serious killing intent in his eyes and immediately waved her hand at Qilin: "Back off."
Qilin let out a low roar, unwilling but still giving way obediently.
"Your Highness!" Jiang Xu chased after him a few steps, but was driven back by a murderous look from King Beining.
