Chapter 95 Hearing that Lu Yanshi loves his daughter
"What's going on with this family? Why are they making trouble every day?" Qi Xingran couldn't help but complain.
How could he, the crown prince of Beiyong, end up living next to such a person?
"When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Just pretend you can't hear." Qi Xingchen, the fifth prince of Beiyong, comforted his brother.
"The Emperor of Daxia clearly did it on purpose. He deliberately placed us in this damn place." Qi Xingyue, the Sixth Princess of Beiyong, stomped her feet in anger.
After they were brought back from Beiyong, Lu Yanshi only met with them once. He said that Beiyong had surrendered to Daxia and that they would be Daxia citizens from now on, and now they could just consider themselves returning home.
Let them stay as guests, and after they attend the first birthday banquet of the Ninth Princess of Daxia, they will be sent back.
From then on, they were never summoned or imprisoned again, and were allowed to come and go freely. However, they were followed by guards wherever they went, under the pretext of protecting them.
This made them feel like they were not here to be protons, and they actually felt a bit comfortable traveling.
But as the days passed, the Ninth Princess Lu Li's first birthday banquet was approaching, and the few people became more and more irritable.
"Brother Crown Prince, do you think the Emperor of Daxia will really let us leave?" Qi Xingyue said worriedly.
"How is that possible? The Emperor of Daxia has always been cruel and treacherous. He will never let us leave smoothly. He does this just to show his false kindness to other countries." Qi Xingran sneered.
Lu Yanshi said nice things to keep them to attend the banquet, but once the banquet was over, it would be a question whether they could return to Beiyong alive.
"Are we just going to sit here and wait for death?" Qi Xingyue became even more anxious.
She had been able to choose her husband, but unexpectedly, Beiyong was suddenly destroyed. She, the legitimate princess, was sent to Daxia together with the crown prince and the fifth prince.
She had heard a lot about the tragic plight of princesses who lost their country, so she was very nervous all the way. Even though Lu Yanshi didn't bother her now, she was still very worried.
"Of course not." Qi Xingran denied it flatly.
"We naturally have to strike first."
Hearing that he had a plan, Qi Xingyue's eyes lit up and she hurriedly asked, "How do we do it?"
"The breakthrough lies in the Ninth Princess." Qi Xingran said in a firm tone.
He stayed in the capital for some time and found out a lot of things. He thought he had found out Lu Yanshi's weak spot.
That is the ninth princess Lu Li.
"What should we do?" Qi Xingyue looked at him expectantly.
After all, my father once said that the Crown Prince is the smartest, so we will always be right to listen to him.
As everyone knows, sometimes, intelligence backfires, and agencies are too smart, and agencies are too smart, and they end up losing their lives.
"Take the Ninth Princess to command Emperor Xia." Qi Xingran's eyes were cold.
I heard that Lu Yanshi loves his daughter dearly.
If they had the Ninth Princess as a hostage, they would certainly be able to leave Daxia safely, and maybe even restore Beiyong.
"I think we should not act rashly. After all, the Emperor of Daxia doesn't seem to have any ill intentions at the moment." Qi Xingchen said weakly.
He felt very uneasy when he heard the Crown Prince and the Sixth Princess planning these things.
"He sent people to destroy Beiyong, and you still say he has no bad intentions?" Qi Xingran glared at him fiercely.
"Father has admitted his guilt, but I have not."
Qi Xingran was still upset about his father's surrender.
Originally, he was a high and mighty prince, but his father and his thirteenth uncle fought against each other, which led to chaos in Beiyong and gave the people of Daxia an opportunity to take advantage of it. As a result, he lost his position as the prince.
If he were the emperor, he would definitely not surrender easily.
He will definitely do better than his father.
Qi Xingchen was reprimanded by the prince and had to keep silent.
"From today on, you will go into the palace and try to get in touch with the Ninth Princess. It would be even better if you can make her like you." Qi Xingran gave his sister a task.
"After you become familiar with her, secretly apply this medicine on her lips during the birthday banquet." He took out a small porcelain bottle as white as jade and handed it to Qi Xingyue.
"Well, Prince brother, don't worry, I will definitely help you." Qi Xingyue nodded heavily.
Qi Xingchen opened his mouth, but ultimately failed to say what was in his heart. After all, neither the Crown Prince nor the Sixth Princess would listen to him.
That day, Qi Xingyue went to the palace and asked to see the empress.
"Why did the princess of Beiyong come to see me? Didn't the emperor ask them to stay outside the palace?" Xia Shuyi was a little confused, but still summoned her.
After all, the emperor wanted to win the hearts of the people of Beiyong, so she naturally couldn't hold him back.
"Xingyue pays homage to Her Majesty the Empress." Qi Xingyue bowed to Xia Shuyi.
She saw Lu Li sitting next to Xia Shuyi and smiled in surprise: "This must be the legendary Ninth Princess. She is indeed very pretty and makes people happy when they see her."
"hey-hey."
Hearing her praising herself, Lu Li gave a friendly smile.
"That's true. Everyone who sees her will compliment her on her good looks." Xia Shuyi smiled and touched her daughter's head.
Qi Xingyue didn't plan to take action right away this time, so she chatted with Xia Shuying about various topics, with the main purpose of making Lu Li get familiar with her.
Lu Li was a little impatient after hearing her talk for a long time without getting to the point. She kept repeating the same few compliments to her.
And after listening more, she found that the Sixth Princess of Beiyong didn't really like her at all. The compliments were so fake, without any emotion at all, it was all technique.
[What is the purpose of this Princess Beiyong coming to see the Queen Mother? She speaks in a roundabout way and I can't understand her.]
[Let me see what her purpose is.]
Lu Li directly opened the melon-eating system to find out the purpose of Qi Xingyue's visit.
Xia Shuyi immediately perked up when he heard this and looked at his daughter.
[Okay, I was wondering why she started praising me right away.]
[It turns out that the weasel is paying New Year's greetings to the chicken, and has no good intentions! ]
Lu Li didn't expect that this time, he would end up eating the melon and end up eating it on his head.
[Has the head of the Crown Prince of Beiyong been caught in a door? He actually wants to use me as a hostage to threaten my father.]
[He also sent Qi Xingyue to get close to me, so that he could poison me at my first birthday party.]
[What's going on? You guys are bullying me because I'm young, right?]
When Xia Shuying heard this, the look in his eyes when he looked at Qi Xingyue became fierce.
He actually set his sights on Xiao Jiutou. This is simply courting death.
Qi Xingyue noticed that the Queen looked at her with a strange expression, but she could not hear Lu Li's thoughts, and did not know that the Prince and her plan had been completely exposed.
A feeling of confusion flashed through her mind, but she forced a smile and wanted to continue chatting with Xia Shuying.
However, Xia Shuyi had no intention of dealing with her and simply drove her away.
"I'm tired, Princess Xingyue, please go back first." She closed her eyes and signaled Luwu to send the person off.
Qi Xingyue stood there in shock, feeling somewhat uneasy.
Did she just say something wrong to displease the Queen?
