"I know you have some opinions about me. To show my sincerity, I won't hide it from you. Zhuang Jiu is another identity of mine. Xiao Qilang and I were classmates in the same courtyard. We spent those few months in a very relaxed and comfortable manner. That's why I feel he is different. I appreciate his kindness, sunshine, and good qualities. So, as long as he doesn't agree sincerely, no one can force him to agree to the marriage. This can't be regarded as you two asking me for help. As Xiao Qilang's close friend and confidant, I took the initiative to plan for him." Ying Huaiji said bluntly.
"Your Highness!" Xiao Jingyun was really shocked.
When the guess coincides with the fact, it's shocking!
That Zhuang Jiu, that Zhuang Jiu! That person even said a lot of outrageous things to him at that time!
In other words, the prince really had other thoughts about his brother... Pah! His sister, and he thought she was a man? What is this?
"Your Highness's identity...it's better not to tell anyone else, otherwise...if it gets out, the emperor will definitely be wary of you!" Xiao Jingyun held it in for a long time before adding.
Zhuang Jiulang went to the academy when the prince was ordered to reflect on his actions.
This is disobeying the imperial order.
"You are members of the Xiao family, Guxin." Ying Huaiji looked relaxed.
However, the father and son felt extremely heavy at this moment.
They had something hidden in their hearts, and suddenly they heard the prince's secret. Under the double attack, they really felt like their brains were about to explode.
"Your Highness... you, you really think that my seventh brother is a good man... a good person who is worth protecting, right? Then... then may I ask for a mercy?" Xiao Jingyun asked with courage and backbone.
Ying Huaiji looked at him.
"My seventh brother is careless by nature and is likely to offend people. I am worried that he might accidentally lose his head in the future, so I would like to ask Your Highness to promise that as long as my seventh brother does not commit the crime of treason in the future, you will spare his life. He... always speaks without thinking, and sometimes he would lie and brag for a corpse. If he has deceived you, I hope you will not care at all in the future..." Xiao Jingyun said cautiously.
Minister Xiao secretly wiped his sweat.
This is... a lie to Your Highness.
"You can say that... It seems that Mr. Xiao Qi is hiding something important from me now, right?" Ying Huaiji smiled casually. Thinking of Xiao Qi's honest look after killing someone that day in the dungeon, he didn't feel angry at all. "Okay."
Xiao Jingyun's heart was in his throat, but he didn't expect that the prince would change the subject and agree.
Just agree to it?
It's a bit unreal.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Xiao Jingyun hurriedly thanked him.
"You are Xiao Qi's relatives. There are some things that I am not in a position to ask in detail. You should care about him more in your daily life. I know that your Xiao family will not do anything that will harm the country, but I am afraid that Xiao Qilang will be used and framed by others. You are also his weak point. I hope you will also take care of yourselves and not let others catch you and let him be controlled by others." Ying Huaiji said again.
The only people who can make Xiao Cunyu draw his sword and kill people are the people of the Xiao family.
The father and son were confused: "Your Highness, where do you start from?"
Seeing this, Ying Huaiji was also startled, "You just asked for mercy, wasn't it because of the matter between Xiao Qilang and that fake prince consort?"
“…” Really not!
What could be going on between them?!
Ying Huaiji was helpless: "It seems that there are still many things that I have been kept in the dark about."
"You can go home and ask Xiao Qilang what he did in my dungeon and you will know. This is your Xiao family's business, and I don't want to know too much." Ying Huaiji said again.
