Chapter 399: Heartfelt
"You're here." Xuan Shaoqing smiled at Ji Huaixuan and poured himself another glass of wine.
Ji Huaixuan couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to snatch the wine glass from Xuan Shaoqing's hand.
However, it was all in vain. Xuan Shaoqing dodged it easily, raised his eyebrows slightly, opened his drunken eyes, and said softly: "If you come here to drink with me today, then sit there. If not, leave."
"Xuan Shaoqing!" Ji Huaixuan couldn't bear it any longer: "For a woman, are you really that bad?"
"It has nothing to do with Miss Yuan Er, so stop talking about her." Xuan Shaoqing filled a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.
"Humph." Ji Huaixuan sneered, "Did I mention Miss Yuan Er? I was only talking about a woman, Xuan Shaoqing, you're admitting your guilt!"
Xuan Shaoqing paused for a moment while holding the wine glass. Without responding to Ji Huaixuan's words, he simply took another wine glass, filled it with wine, and placed it in front of Ji Huaixuan: "Since you are here, have a drink with me. I don't know when we will get together next time."
Ji Huaixuan was so angry at Xuan Shaoqing's appearance that he fumed. He gulped down the wine in front of him and said angrily, "Xuan Shaoqing, don't think I don't know why you personally requested permission to garrison at the border."
"The reason doesn't matter, I just want to go!" Xuan Shaoqing said lightly.
"You..." Ji Huaixuan stood up in anger and paced back and forth in the study: "Do you know how noble your status is? Huh? Do you know? You even went to ask the emperor for permission to go to the border. Don't you know how dangerous it is there?"
"So what?" Xuan Shaoqing said nonchalantly, "Tuoba Hun is a prince of the Chi-Le tribe. Didn't he fight on the battlefield just as well? Why can't I?"
"You..." Ji Huaixuan was choked by Xuan Shaoqing and continued, "Chi Le has five princes, but Prince Su only has you as his son. Do you understand?"
"I know." Xuan Shaoqing said after a pause.
"The prince agrees to let you go." Ji Huaixuan asked.
"This is my own business, I make my own decision, and the imperial decree has been issued, so your words are not to be trifled with." Xuan Shaoqing drank another glass of wine and said.
Ji Huaixuan gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and sat down again. "Xuan Shaoqing, I understand what you're thinking. Don't hide it from me. I know you're going to the border for Miss Yuan Er. Tell me why? Don't tell me you're trying to avoid her and Huo Xifei. Turn a blind eye."
Xuan Shaoqing glanced at Ji Huaixuan, lowered his head and remained silent for a while. Just when Ji Huaixuan thought he would not answer, Xuan Shaoqing said, "If I don't go to the border this time, the emperor will order Huo Xifei to stay there permanently."
"Then let Huo Xifei be stationed at the border permanently. It's not like he doesn't have the ability to do it." Ji Huaixuan glared at Xuan Shaoqing. What a good opportunity. Since he likes Miss Yuan Er, if Huo Xifei is stationed at the border permanently, as long as he works hard, maybe he can still have some chances.
"Nothing can happen to Huo Xifei." Xuan Shaoqing said lightly.
"Alright!" Ji Huaixuan laughed in anger when he heard this: "Xuan Shaoqing, you are truly great."
"This time, Huo Xifei was ordered to go to the frontier, and Miss Yuan Er secretly left the capital to follow him." Xuan Shaoqing ignored Ji Huaixuan's ridicule and said softly, "As soon as she arrived in Harlan City, she heard the news of Huo Xifei's death. You didn't see Miss Yuan Er's expression at the time. I can be sure that if Huo Xifei really died this time, Miss Yuan Er would not be able to survive either. But at that time, I was unable to do anything. I had no right to do anything for her."
"What did you say?" Ji Huaixuan had no idea about this matter: "What you said is true."
Xuan Shaoqing smiled faintly and nodded, a tear welling up in the corner of his eye: "Huaixuan, no matter if you laugh at me being stupid or call me crazy, all I want is her safety."
