Chapter 90 Beili Wolf King x Central Plains Prince 26
Xiao Jintian leisurely opened the door for their Third Prince.
Qianzhou felt it was too much to bear, so he put on a cotton cloak and walked to the gate of the courtyard, looking at the messenger without any expression.
When the messenger saw the Third Prince whom he had been thinking about, he fell to his knees with a thud and banged his head on the ground.
He spoke word by word: "Your Highness!"
The envoy, who looked like a middle-aged man with a respectable appearance, began to sob and cry. He raised his hand and wiped away his tears, "Your Highness, you have suffered..."
The envoy knelt and crawled to Qian Zhou, grabbing his clothes and crying, "I traveled for dozens of days from the Central Plains to Beili, and I finally felt relieved after seeing you! Your Highness, how come you have lost so much weight..."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince misses you every day and has tried every possible means to bring you back. Now that I see you are fine, I can explain..."
"My Highness! Hurry, bring the things to His Highness!"
A group of guards behind him unloaded three large boxes from the carriage. Each box required two strong men to lift it, as it was incredibly heavy.
Yin Wu and the other sword-wielding guards looked at each other, and saw shock in each other's eyes.
The people of Central Plains are really hardworking. They travel such a long distance and bring things for their Third Prince.
The messenger took out a cloth bag from his sleeve, opened the bag and took out the small box inside, then opened the small box and took out three keys.
He bowed and presented it with both hands, "This is all given to you by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Qian Zhou didn't take it, and pulled his clothes back from the messenger's hand, "What are you doing to me? Open it now."
Xiao Jintian looked at Qianzhou's fingers that were frozen white, took two steps forward, put his hand under his sleeve, and held it calmly.
The messenger and his entourage were busy opening the boxes.
Qian Zhou stood straight, without much emotion in his eyes, as if he had become the cold and aloof Third Prince in the rumors again.
The people of the Central Plains revered him as a respected prince, but they didn't know that his fingertips were also soft under his robes. Xiao Jintian pinched them.
The slender hand with thin calluses was quickly withdrawn, and Xiao Jintian curled the corners of his mouth, like a wolf who had received a secret reward.
Isolated behind thousands of boats, he made no sound, yet possessed an imposing aura.
When the box was opened, it was found to be filled with gorgeous and thick clothes. The messenger ordered people to move them back into the house.
When he came out again, he was holding a purple-gold fox fur coat with gold threads. The fur at the collar was soft and smooth, and it was shining.
"His Royal Highness was worried you'd be cold, so he had the best tailor in the capital make it for you. It's made of the finest fur and silk."
The messenger glanced at Xiao Jintian quietly and whispered, "Please take good care of yourself before returning to the Central Plains."
"Well, let's go back." Qian Zhou said.
Fox fur is nice, but cotton robes are too thick and heavy, making it inconvenient to wear, and are less beautiful than fox fur.
Qian Zhou told them to go back, and the envoy bowed respectfully and left the courtyard.
Only then did Qian Zhou notice the prime minister who had been following silently behind him. He only acted as a background behind the envoy, bowing and kowtowing without saying a word.
She kept her head down, as if afraid of attracting his attention.
Where can you find such a cowardly prime minister?
Qianzhou: Is he afraid of me?
[System 052: Normally, everyone in the palace is afraid of you. Although he is the Prime Minister, he was previously involved in the transportation of grain and fodder, which was the battle in which you were captured by Xiao Jintian.]
[System 052: His entire family is being targeted by the Crown Prince]
Lanzhi had said before that even if he had not been captured by Xiao Jintian, he would not have won this battle because the food supply in the rear had been cut off.
Qian Zhou: Why do I feel like the prince is a little too nice to me?
052 He didn’t understand the open and secret struggles in the palace. He just thought that he was popular, so it was natural for the prince to treat him well.
[System 052: I think everyone should be nice to you]
Qian Zhou: That's not what I meant. As the crown prince, it's strange that he's so obviously kind to someone who is also eligible to inherit the throne.
It was as if he was afraid that others didn't know that the third prince was close to him.
[Qian Zhou: How many princes are there in total?]
[System 052: 16, and 4 princesses.]
[Qianzhou: This is too fertile...]
System 052: Now that you've said that, I understand. The other 14 princes can't even rank in front of you two. The Crown Prince is in power, and you're on the battlefield. You truly possess both talent and talent.
Qian Zhou: But the soldiers are not under my control.
It is impossible for the emperor to give his son too much military power. Qian Zhou can mobilize a lot of people, but there are less than a thousand soldiers who can be used by him.
Qianzhou: Let’s look back.
The envoy's residence was not far from the Wolf King's Mansion. Xiao Jintian had been ignoring them for the past few days and had no intention of talking to them again.
Four days passed in a flash. The weather in Beili became colder, and street vendors began to appear again.
There was white mist between Qianzhou's breaths. He was wearing a fox fur coat, with a tall and slender figure, and Yinwu followed behind him.
I truly felt the prince's majestic nobility. Beili really couldn't raise someone with such temperament.
There are many stalls selling hot soup on Beili Street, as well as stalls cooking wontons in pots. There are a few low tables at the back, and many people stop by.
Qianzhou came out to buy snacks this time. He didn't want to admit that he had eaten all the six packs that Xiao Jintian bought for him.
There was a long line at the dim sum shop in the distance. Qian Zhou found the end of the line and stood behind a woman.
Many people looked at him along the way. Qian Zhou's appearance was unique, and with the extremely conspicuous fox fur coat, he attracted even more attention.
The woman in front looked back at him and said in a low voice, "It's you!"
Qian Zhou was counting the people in front of him. He thought he would have to wait a long time to buy something. His hands were a little cold, and he hummed when he heard this.
The woman greeted the people in the shop, and soon a woman in dark linen clothes came out and handed Qianzhou six square buns.
"Here, this is for you."
Qian Zhou didn't answer, and the people in the queue ahead looked over here with curiosity on their faces.
Qian Zhou asked, "Who bought it?"
After asking, he thought, who else except Xiao Jintian knows that he likes to eat snacks.
As expected, she said, "The king bought it at the shop the day before yesterday. He said he would give it to you when the young master arrives, so you don't have to wait in line."
Qianzhou felt a little amused. Was Xiao Jintian so sure that he would come and buy it himself?
Only then did he take the square bag. Yin Wu hesitated to speak and touched his nose with an unnatural expression.
The king is no longer the same king as before.
It made Yinwu feel unfamiliar.
Qianzhou handed the snacks to Yinwu and hid his hands in the fox fur.
Yin Wu: "...Going back?"
"Do you know why I'm wearing such a conspicuous fox fur coat today?" Qian Zhou raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
Yin Wu shook his head, "I don't know."
Maybe... fox fur is warmer than cotton robes?
Qian Zhou chuckled, "My injuries are almost healed, there's no need to follow so closely. If I really wanted to run away, you wouldn't be able to do anything to me, and there's also the sister on the roof."
Qian Zhou looked up at the brick roof of the shop and said, "Your name is Yin Chi, right?"
Yin Wu was shocked. Yin Chi was the fastest and lightest among them. She was silent and invisible when she was lurking, making her extremely difficult to detect.
If Qianzhou hadn't said this, Yinwu would have forgotten that the seemingly gentle and kind person in front of him was actually an invincible general on the battlefield and the meticulous third prince.
He is the strong man who can defeat Yan Hu even though he is injured.
"I take one step and you follow two. You have to stand behind me in the queue. Why don't you tie a rope around my hand?"
Qianzhou still had a faint smile on his face as he looked at Yinwu.
