1646 Opportunity, Losing Both the Lady and the Army
The Ninth Prince and Ling Tian looked into each other's eyes. There was no flame or smoke. Their calm and deep eyes revealed information that only they understood.
Apart from Doudou's voice, the only other sounds in the room were very light breathing. The atmosphere became increasingly solemn, and the air seemed to be solidifying. Even Doudou noticed that something was wrong.
Doudou looked at the Ninth Uncle, then at Ling Tian, and found that he had no idea what was going on. Everything was fine just now, and he was forcing Ling Tian to apologize to Qingchen. Why did the atmosphere suddenly become wrong?
Is he out of touch? Or are these two people out of touch?
Following the principle of looking for Feng Qingchen if he didn't understand something, Doudou walked behind Feng Qingchen and asked in a low voice: "Qingchen, when I was talking just now, did something happen that I don't know about?" Otherwise, how could he be out of control in an instant.
"No." Because it wasn't what happened when Doudou was talking, but the contest between the Ninth Prince and Ling Tian had already begun as soon as Ling Tian came in, and now it was just the climax.
"What's going on with these two people?" Doudou pointed at the unfathomable Ninth Uncle and Ling Tian, and felt that Ling Tian was more and more annoying.
If he wanted to establish a relationship with Feng Qingchen and get to know the Ninth Prince better, he could just use Xuan Shaoqi's relationship to enter the Feng Mansion. Feng Qingchen would also help Ling Tian for Xuan Shaoqi's sake. But he had to ask for something from others and put on airs. He deserved to offend Qingchen.
If you have something to say, just say it directly. Why play deep and pretend to be so classy? It's really annoying when people can't understand you.
"They are competing. It's a competition between men." Feng Qingchen was also playing tricks, and Doudou got furious: "Feng Qingchen, I'm a man too." So if there is to be a competition, he must also be included.
"No one doubts this." Feng Qingchen gently uttered the word "Oiran", which made Doudou blush: "At the beginning, I was not sensible at the beginning, and I just said it casually. But I haven't touched an Oiran until now." He is very self-disciplined, really...
"What does that have to do with me? Don't worry, if you get syphilis, I will let Sixing treat you." Feng Qingchen spread his hands in confusion, and while the two of them were chatting, the confrontation between the Ninth Prince and Ling Tian also came to an end.
Feng Qingchen didn’t know what the Ninth Prince and Ling Tian had “communicated” about. She only heard the Ninth Prince ordering the servants to take Hong Xiu out of the cell and return her to Ling Tian, and then he served tea to the person.
Ling Tian's face showed no emotion. Before leaving, he invited Feng Qingchen and Doudou to go to the villa tomorrow. Feng Qingchen glanced at the Ninth Prince and nodded in agreement after getting his tacit approval.
Doudou had no idea what was going on and just followed Feng Qingchen. He would go wherever Qingchen was told to go. He wanted to protect Qingchen, lest some people would take advantage of their status to bully Qingchen and then pretend to be innocent.
As expected, Ling Tian's expression changed slightly because of Doudou's words, and he looked at Doudou with a more critical look: Is the young master of the Killer Alliance really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?
If Ouyang Doudou hadn't interfered, his talks with the Ninth Uncle would have gone more smoothly, and many things could have been said more directly. But with such a troublemaker around, he couldn't say anything.
This Ouyang Doudou is truly Ling Tian's nemesis.
This meeting seemed to have no meaning. After Ling Tian left, Feng Qingchen looked at the Ninth Uncle in confusion: "Can I know what's going on?"
Pound the ground!
It was obvious that Doudou was not the only one who was not in the right state. Feng Qingchen was also completely out of shape.
"Ling Tian has something to ask of me. I will give him a chance." The Ninth Prince said indifferently.
If the recent troubles in the martial arts world were really the work of Nanling Jinfan, the Ninth Prince would definitely have to intervene and could not allow Nanling Jinfan to become more powerful. But after all, this has crossed the line, so he needs to think carefully about what to do about this matter.
The most important thing is that he can use more than just Ling Tian.
"What opportunity?" Did you say anything? Well... I think I said something, which was to let Hongxiu go.
"Let him apologize to you." The Ninth Prince said calmly, but Feng Qingchen was puzzled: "Did you say that?"
The Ninth Prince glanced at Feng Qingchen, as if to say that he had become stupid. Seeing that Feng Qingchen still didn't understand, the Ninth Prince added, "I released his maid."
This shows that insulting Feng Qingchen in the street cannot be settled by just punishing a maid. The maid relied on Ling Tian's power and the power of Tianqiong Castle, so naturally Ling Tian had to step in.
Feng Qingchen nodded in understanding, but...
"Although I just met Ling Tian, I also know that he is very arrogant. Will he agree?" If they fall out, it will not be so convenient for them to interfere in the affairs of the martial arts world.
"That is his business. It has nothing to do with me." He certainly understood how arrogant Ling Tian was, and that was why he wanted to break Ling Tian's arrogance.
When asking for help, one must have the attitude of asking for help. No matter how powerful Ling Tian is, he is only the young master of Tianqiong Castle. Whether he can sit on the position of the castle master remains to be seen...
"So, we will have a good show to watch tomorrow?" Feng Qingchen raised the corners of his lips slightly, in a very good mood.
Even though she knew in her heart that she was just a pawn in the contest between Ling Tian and the Ninth Prince, Feng Qingchen still smiled happily and did not hide anything.
Anyway, she didn't suffer any loss. She might even become famous in the martial arts world because of it, making people in the martial arts world wary of her and making it easier for her to act.
She likes to take advantage of the power of others the most. It would be best if no one in the world dared to provoke her so that she could seize territory and manage the power of the Fengli clan.
"I hope he is smart enough." The Ninth Prince's eyes were slightly cold as he looked outside the door, but his eyes were unfocused.
Doudou continued to scratch his head, saying that he didn't understand anything. What was going on? Why did he become more confused the more he listened? Could it be that he could only understand what Snow Wolf said?
As soon as Ling Tian walked out of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, the smile on his face froze. As soon as he got on the carriage, his face darkened. Lu Qing glanced at Ling Tian quietly, poured a glass of water gently, and carefully held it in front of Ling Tian: "Sir, please have some tea."
It was only then that Ling Tian realized that he had been sitting in the Ninth Prince's Mansion for a quarter of an hour, but the Ninth Prince had not even given him a cup of tea.
"He is indeed arrogant and doesn't take anyone seriously. No wonder Xuan Shaoqi refused to help." Ling Tian drank the tea in the cup and closed his eyes tightly.
Lu Qing was a smart person. She knew at a glance that things were not going well. After Ling Tian's brows were relieved, she whispered, "Sir, is Princess Xiling going to give her a response?"
Although the Ninth Prince is a good candidate for cooperation, he is not their only partner. There are many other external aids that Tianqiong Castle can borrow, but Ling Tian has chosen the Ninth Prince.
"Let's delay it for now. Princess Xiling is a thing of the past. Instead of looking for a woman with no army and no power, I would rather contact Beiling." Ling Tian was still angry.
No matter which country or city he went to, he was always a guest of honor, and the other party would never give him a cold shoulder. Only Dong Lingjiu did not take him seriously at all, but Ling Tian also understood that Dong Lingjiu had the confidence.
"Young Master, the Third Young Master has also gone out. His target seems to be Dong Ling as well." Lu Qing's voice was very low, but loud enough for Ling Tian to hear. Ling Tian's brows, which had finally relaxed, tensed up again, and his tone was extremely disdainful: "That bastard wants to compete too? Naive!"
Lu Qing lowered her head, not daring to speak, feeling quite uneasy. She always felt that this trip to Dong Ling would not be smooth. The Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen were not like the people they had dealt with before. These two were very difficult to deal with.
Yesterday, the young master listened to Hongxiu's suggestion and on impulse, he rammed Feng Qingchen's carriage as a prank. Lu Qing felt that things would develop in a direction that they could not control. The young master's tricks that had always worked for him would definitely not work on Feng Qingchen.
How could the woman that Palace Master Xuan praised be like an ordinary woman? She was impressed by the gentleman's elegance as soon as she saw him, and she took advantage of the fact that she crashed into his car and then took advantage of him. If things go wrong this time, they will lose not only the lady but also the army...
