Chapter 89 Beili Wolf King x Central Plains Prince 25
Yin Chi walked in from the doorway and asked, "Do you have any porridge?"
"Yes, yes. This was just made this morning. The king and the others haven't eaten it yet." The cook brought it to Yin Chi.
Yin Wu's expression was dull. He slowly turned his head to look at Yin Chi, "You know the king and the third prince..."
"I know." Yin Chi was busy eating and left after finishing his meal without saying much to Yin Wu.
She had to keep an eye on Lanyu Tower. The king had ordered that the third prince not be allowed to enter again.
Yinwu didn't digest this matter until the afternoon. He saw Qianzhou push open the window and his legs couldn't stand straight when he got out of bed.
He coughed several times, his wrists were red, and there were bruises on his neck and collarbone.
Yinwu remembered Xiao Jintian's instructions in the morning and brought the stewed beef, two plates of side dishes, and two peeled hot eggs on the white rice.
Yinwu kept his hands on the side to prevent Qianzhou from overturning the table.
"..." Qian Zhou was in low spirits today. He glanced at him, then sat on the stool and started eating in small bites.
His throat was a little sore and he felt uncomfortable all over, which made the beef stew taste bland.
It’s all thanks to Xiao Jintian.
[System 052: Inside, inside...]
Qian Zhou remained silent and ignored 052.
[System 052: I thought you would like him. After all, they are the same person...]
Qian Zhou: Let’s break up.
[System 052: It's not my fault! It's that I can't jump every time I run into him. He's poisonous!]
Qianzhou: ...
He only ate half a bowl of rice, then went back to the couch and closed his eyes to sleep, then realized that this was Xiao Jintian's room and Xiao Jintian's bed.
With a gloomy face, he walked back to his room step by step. The stove was burning, and it was warmer than Xiao Jintian's room.
Qian Zhou originally wanted to take a short nap and then get up, but he didn't expect that a whole day would pass as soon as he closed his eyes.
The envoy from Central Plains has arrived in Beili, and Xiao Jintian is going to negotiate with him today.
Four carriages from the Central Plains arrived, and there were a total of 15 people in the group. In addition to the envoys, the prime minister also came to show his sincerity.
On the day they arrived, a cold wind blew in Beili.
The biting cold swept across the horse hoof prints on the road. From the moment they stepped into the Beili border, they were stared at by countless pairs of eyes.
Xiao Jintian sat in a high position, looking down at them with his chin propped up. His tall stature and murderous aura carried the domineering aura that only belonged to a wolf king.
The first thing the envoy wanted to do was to see their third prince.
He was blocked by Xiao Jintian.
He glanced at the three large boxes on the ground and asked, "What are these?"
It's not a big deal to take such great pains to bring it from Central Plains to Beili.
The messenger smiled and said meaningfully, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Third Prince have been like brothers since childhood. Before leaving for the battle, he even told His Royal Highness the Third Prince to be extremely careful."
"These are all for His Majesty the Third Prince."
Xiao Jintian's expression was indifferent, "Are you saying that Qian Zhou has a good relationship with your prince?"
The envoy nodded calmly, "Of course. The Third Prince is his younger brother, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely take him back."
Xiao Jintian put the wine glass aside and put down the chopsticks in his hand.
The messenger was a smart guy, so how could he not hear the intimacy in Xiao Jintian's tone.
I couldn't help but wonder, why did the Third Prince have such a good relationship with the Wolf King? Could it be that, as the Crown Prince worried, he was unwilling to release the person?
There were simple dishes arranged on the table, and Xiao Jintian didn't spend much time on them.
Although sitting here, my heart has already flown back to the Wolf King's Palace following a certain name.
If you look closely at Xiao Jintian's right face, you can actually see a very faint slap mark, which was caused by their third prince slapping him that morning.
Xiao Jintian rubbed his chin with his fingertips, "Yuan Hao, arrange accommodation for them."
Yuan Hao clasped his fists and said, "Yes."
"Hey, Wolf King, are you leaving now? Let's see the Third Prince. Is he well?"
"I'm fine." Xiao Jintian stepped out of the door and handed the messenger to Yuan Hao.
It was the Central Plains that was seeking peace. Xiao Jintian was in an advantageous position, so he wanted to leave without even discussing business.
The messenger hurriedly caught up, "Well, let's talk about it the day after tomorrow. We can take a few days off. Come on!"
He pointed to three large boxes on the ground and said, "Send these to His Majesty the Third Prince."
Xiao Jintian didn't even pause, "Send it to the Wolf King's Mansion, there will be servants to pick it up."
"Yes." The messenger just responded and was stunned, "The Third Prince lives with you?!"
Xiao Jintian rode on horseback, facing the fierce wind, and raised his eyebrows. "He lives in my courtyard now, what's going on?"
The messenger rubbed his hands and said, "No, no..."
Xiao Jintian and Zhuifeng were galloping on the streets of Beili. When they passed by a pastry shop, Xiao Jintian pulled the reins and dismounted.
He came out with several bags of snacks, all of which were the shop's signature dishes.
The cooks were carrying freshly washed dishes and saw Xiao Jintian coming in with not a sword or a bow, nor the silver armor or wrist guards he had worn in the past.
Instead, it was a glutinous rice cake wrapped in yellow oil paper and tied with a thin string into a nice square bun. There were six in total.
Yin Wu stepped forward, "My Lord."
"Well, where are the people?" Xiao Jintian looked at Qianzhou and saw that the doors and windows were closed again.
Yin Wu said, "He's not at your place anymore. He came out this morning and didn't look too happy. He didn't eat much. I went to check on him this afternoon and he wasn't awake."
Xiao Jintian changed his clothes and went to Qianzhou's house with some snacks.
Qianzhou was still sleeping, lying in the quilt with his hands stretched out and curled up slightly.
Xiao Jintian climbed onto the bed and hugged Qian Zhou. He wrapped his arms around Qian Zhou's waist, pulled him out of the quilt, and held him in his arms. "I've been serving you all morning, and you're so tired you've been sleeping all day. Get up now."
I've slept all day, I must have slept enough.
Qianzhou frowned and pushed his arm away. It took him a few seconds to wake up from his sleep and open his eyes slightly.
Xiao Jintian frowned. People who practiced martial arts were extremely alert, but Qian Zhou stayed awake longer than others.
Just as the doctor said, the damaged vitality has never been recovered.
"...Let go." Qian Zhou's voice was hoarse.
As the sky gradually darkened, the wind outside the window roared in gusts, while a gentle tranquility came into the house.
Qianzhou was wearing a loose white robe, and his long black hair fell on his fingertips, feeling smooth to the touch.
This man took off his weapons and light armor and lay in the bedding very obediently, liking to rest his wrists on the piled bedding.
Xiao Jintian touched his forehead and felt a rare sense of regret. If it weren't for those serious injuries, Qian Zhou would have been able to accompany him on horseback riding in the strong wind with high spirits.
Even if he torments me, I probably won't be able to sleep the whole day.
"The envoy from Central Plains has arrived." Xiao Jintian let him go.
Qian Zhou rubbed his brows and sat up. He coughed twice and put on his cotton robe. "I'm a little tired. See you tomorrow."
Xiao Jintian lit the candle, Qianzhou held his forehead against the candle, and caught a glimpse of several exquisite square buns on the table.
"What's this?"
"Try some snacks." Xiao Jintian opened one for him.
It was a lotus cake, but Qian Zhou only took a glance at it before looking away. "Even if you bring me some snacks, I won't be nice to you."
Xiao Jintian was a little surprised. He sat at the table, propping up his chin and looking at him, "So fierce."
At this time, Yin Wu's voice came from outside the door:
"Your Majesty, the envoy from the Central Plains requests an audience. He wants to see the Third Prince."
Yin Wu said with a headache: "It must be urgent..."
The yard was filled with the messenger's screams, as if if they were any later, their third prince would be eaten by Xiao Jintian.
"Third Prince! Third Prince—!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince has been so worried that he hasn't been able to eat or sleep well all day! If you're okay, please come out and see me!"
"I have to give an explanation to the Crown Prince!"
He put his hands to his mouth and shouted: "Three! Your Highness——!"
