Chapter 57 Your Highness, I'm Hungry

The emperor came down from the throne when he saw it and looked carefully at the so-called blood phoenix. It had three red whiskers on its forehead and blood-red areas around its eyes. Its body was much smaller than that of a phoenix, and was very similar to the description in ancient books.

"Brother, you are amazing. You actually found the Blood Phoenix." Xiao Jinyu also looked at the Blood Phoenix curiously. "Father, how are you going to reward my brother?"

The emperor never thought at first that he would catch the legendary Blood Phoenix, but he didn't expect that the prince would catch it. How could he not be happy?

"Prince, what kind of reward do you need? Just tell me and I can satisfy you."

Everything the emperor says can be satisfied, but in fact not everything will be satisfied for you, it depends on what you ask for.

Excessive demands or those that touch the emperor's bottom line would cause dissatisfaction among the emperor.

Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger, this is the truth.

Xiao Jinyan knew this very well. He lowered his head and said, "Serving my father is what I should do. I don't need any reward."

Xiao Jinyu was anxious, "Brother, such a good opportunity, you don't want a reward?"

The emperor laughed heartily: "Yes, the prince's ability is getting stronger and stronger. I was not wrong about you."

Xiao Jinyan: "Thank you, Father, for the compliment."

Xiao Jinyu is almost feeling sorry for Xiao Jinyan. If he doesn't make a request now, when will he make it?

The emperor was in a good mood and ordered his men to put the Blood Phoenix in a cage and bring it back to the capital.

When it was time to light the lanterns, the other princes came back one after another, and without exception they returned empty-handed.

When they learned that the prince had found the Blood Phoenix, everyone showed a look of surprise.

Xiao Che said: "The prince's luck is really extraordinary. He can even find such a precious blood phoenix."

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "That's right. There are ten of us brothers, but we didn't even see the shadow of the Blood Phoenix. The prince is really amazing."

Xiao Yunxuan listened to his brothers praising Xiao Jinyan with disdain in his eyes. He thought, the Blood Phoenix is ​​such a rare bird, who knows how he found it?

Most importantly, the assassin he sent failed.

He was very disappointed.

Xiao Jinyan heard what was in Xiao Yunxuan's mind. He tried to harm him again and again, causing Shen Chuwei to be injured. A hint of murderous intent flashed in his cold eyes.

When Wei Chi came back, he reported to Xiao Jinyan.

"Your Highness, I have found that the eldest prince's behavior is a little strange. The other princes are looking for the Blood Phoenix, but the eldest prince is not in a hurry to find the Blood Phoenix."

Xiao Jinyan already knew that it was the eldest prince who sent the killer, so he was not surprised. It was just that there was no evidence, and his father only believed in evidence, otherwise he would not believe what he said.

He pondered for a moment, "Wei Chi, spread the word that I have been seriously injured."

"Yes, sir." Wei Chi took the order and strode out.

Xiao Jinyan got up and went to Shen Chuwei's tent. Seeing that she hadn't woken up yet, he frowned and asked, "Where's the military doctor? Why hasn't she woken up yet?"

Qin Xiao said: "Your Highness, the military doctor just came and checked the wound. He said that the poison has been resolved."

Xiao Jinyan's voice was a little deep: "Why hasn't he woken up after the poison was removed?"

"Maybe he fell asleep?" Qin Xiao replied cautiously.

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes and looked at her, his face still very pale. He reached out his hand to her forehead, and there was no sign of fever.

At this time, Shen Chuwei slowly opened her eyes and met a pair of sparkling eyes. She blinked her beautiful eyes.

Xiao Jinyan saw her open her eyes and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally you woke up. Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere? You can tell me."

Shen Chuwei touched her stomach and was too hungry to speak. "Your Highness, I'm so hungry."
