581 Soul Transfer, This King is Really Tired

Do you complain? Maybe, but can complaining change what has happened?

Compared to resentment, she was more happy. If the Ninth Prince hid her in the dark in order to protect her, then she would really resent it. After all, no matter how much love there is, it will be worn away by continuous troubles. When the Ninth Prince only thinks about protecting her, it means that the Ninth Prince has given up on her.

Everyone understood all of this. Why would the Ninth Prince bring up these things after he was assassinated? Did something happen to him?

Although she was suspicious, Feng Qingchen did not ask any more questions. Instead, she followed the Ninth Uncle's words and answered: "If I say I'm resentful, will you stop?"

The Ninth Prince shook his head without even thinking: "No, if you want to stand by my side, you must bear all this." He wanted both the country and the beauty. He would not sacrifice the beauty for the country, nor would he abandon the country for the beauty.

"In that case, what's the point of asking these questions? My answer is not important to you." The Ninth Prince has always been strong and would never give her a chance to refuse.

Although your answer cannot change my decision, it is very important to me!

The words came to the Ninth Prince's lips but he didn't say them. What would it matter if he said them? As Feng Qingchen said, even if he said them, it wouldn't change anything. No one could change what he had decided.

"Yes. Your answer is not important, you have to accept it no matter what it is." The Ninth Prince said firmly, his tired eyes bright and firm. He met Feng Qingchen's gaze, and the faint majesty in his eyes warned Feng Qingchen not to retreat.

Why are you like a child? Feng Qingchen smiled bitterly, but the Ninth Prince was determined to get her answer. Only when Feng Qingchen nodded slightly did the Ninth Prince retract his gaze, relax his whole body, reach out his hand, and hold Feng Qingchen in his arms.

"Feng Qingchen, I am tired, let me rest for a while!"

He was really tired. He had never stopped since the moment he stepped into the Imperial City. After entering the palace, he had to deal with the Emperor many times. He came out of the Imperial City exhausted and encountered a series of ambushes and assassinations. He was used to such a life, but he would get tired eventually, especially today. His good brother stabbed him in the heart and made him cry blood in pain.

"Okay, you can rest assured, I'm here!" Feng Qingchen's eyes were filled with even more suspicion. She lowered her head and looked at the Ninth Prince who was lying in her arms with his eyes closed, and the confusion in her eyes deepened.

What on earth did the Ninth Prince encounter in the palace? Why did he become so tired? Feng Qingchen could sense that the Ninth Prince was tired mentally.

The two of them hugged each other quietly until the Ninth Prince's personal soldiers came to report that an assassin had been captured alive. Only then did the Ninth Prince let go of Feng Qingchen and straightened his collar. He was as cold and majestic as usual, with high morale, as if he had never shown any weakness.

"Please be careful during this period. I am very busy and do not have time to look after you. You do not need to worry about the affairs of Xuanxiao Palace. I will handle them as soon as possible." After saying this, the Ninth Prince strode away.

Xuanxiao Palace, if you have the courage to threaten him, you must have the courage to bear the consequences.

Feng Qingchen had no time to say anything except nodding. After the Ninth Uncle left, Feng Qingchen carefully thought about what the Ninth Uncle said today.

When the Ninth Prince first arrived, he was irritable and depressed. The last sentence shows that the conflict between him and Xuanxiao Palace seems to have escalated and is no longer caused by Xuan Fei.

Feng Qingchen thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what had happened. He pressed a button in the room and Tong Yao soon walked in.

"Miss?" Although Tong Yao didn't understand why Feng Qingchen was looking for her at this time, she just stood there respectfully without asking any more questions.

"Go check what happened in the palace today, the key is the conversation between the Ninth Prince and the Emperor." Feng Qingchen knew it would be difficult to find out, but...

The Ninth Prince only behaved abnormally after he came out of the palace. Something must have happened in the palace.

"Yes, Miss." Tong Yao did not dare to complain. It was difficult to find out the conversation between the emperor and the ninth uncle, so she turned around and arranged for someone to inquire.

Feng Qingchen originally thought that there would be no outsiders present when the Ninth Prince and the Emperor were talking, but Tong Yao found out the news the next day, which made Feng Qingchen wonder whether the Emperor did this on purpose.

The Ninth Prince entered the palace to discuss the matter of the Millennium Snow Lotus with the Emperor. However, the Emperor told the Ninth Prince that he was going to give the Millennium Snow Lotus to the Palace Master of Xuanxiao Palace.

The Lord of Xuanxiao Palace sent a letter a few days ago, saying that he was going to Dongling to select a group of disciples. He also hinted in the letter that his daughter was injured by the Ninth Uncle and was in desperate need of Millennium Snow Lotus to treat her.

Of course, the Ninth Prince Uncle did not confront the Emperor head-on. When he heard about Xuanxiao Palace, he just sneered. But the Emperor went even further and asked the Ninth Prince Uncle to apologize to the Palace Master of Xuanxiao Palace in person.

That day, the two most noble brothers in Dongling quarreled fiercely over this matter. Of course, only the emperor was quarreling. The ninth uncle just sat on the side, venting his anger. He simply disdained to have such a meaningless quarrel with the emperor.

The emperor kept preaching, and when he saw that the Ninth Prince neither agreed nor objected, he became even more furious and ordered directly: "Ninth brother, no matter what, you are wrong in this matter. I want you to apologize to the Palace Master of Xuanxiao Palace."

"Apologize? Your Majesty, is this the first day you've known me? When have you ever seen me apologize like a human being?" The Ninth Prince raised his eyes and stared at the Emperor with cold eyes, almost shocking the Emperor.

Anyone who dares to ask him to apologize is dead.

"Ninth brother, stop messing around. I have already made the decision on this matter. You were in the wrong first, and you won't lose your status by apologizing." The emperor said firmly.

"If you want my apology, then you can. When the Palace Master of Xuanxiao Palace dies, I will say to his corpse that I am sorry for killing him." The Ninth Prince was too lazy to say anything more to the Emperor. He threw up his sleeves and prepared to leave the palace.

When he reached the threshold and was about to step over, he heard the emperor's threat: "Ninth brother, if you dare to step out, I will immediately order the remains of Empress Shengmin to be removed from the imperial mausoleum."

Empress Shengmin was the title of the Ninth Prince's mother. After the Ninth Prince's mother died, the late emperor posthumously conferred her the title of Empress Shengmin and buried her with the late emperor.

These words stopped the Ninth Prince in his tracks. He retracted his raised leg. No one saw how stiff and angry his movement was. The Emperor only saw that after hearing these words, the Ninth Prince turned around calmly with a mocking smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, what do you want to do to me?" This is the Ninth Prince. When he was extremely angry, he directly asked the key question and was too lazy to say a single unnecessary word.

He really couldn't do it and just stand there and do nothing while the emperor dug up his mother's bones.

"I want you to send Feng Qingchen's body to Xuanxiao Palace, and you must go to Xuanxiao Palace in person to apologize to the Palace Master." The Emperor looked down at the Ninth Uncle and gave a strong order, feeling more relieved than ever before.

Hahaha, my high and mighty ninth brother, you have come to this day too. There will also be a day when you will have to bow your head like me.

But the result disappointed the emperor. The Ninth Prince just looked at the emperor deeply, said, "It will never be possible," and strode away.

The emperor was left alone in the palace. He was extremely shocked and in a rage, he smashed the imperial study to pieces.

Next, as soon as the Ninth Prince left the palace, he encountered an assassin. No one would believe that the emperor had no hand in this.

With this happening, the superficial peace between the Ninth Prince and the Emperor was torn apart. The Emperor was so tough, he must have received the support of Xuanxiao Palace...

The Ninth Prince will indeed be very busy.

Feng Qingchen took a deep breath, stood up, and walked out with big strides.

She wanted to have a good talk with Cui Haoting. After leaving Cui Haoting alone for so long, she was the one who finally compromised. It has to be said that the young master of the Cui family is really amazing!

A word to the readers: I cannot understand what everyone is talking about. Emotionally, the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen are like this. Besides, the Ninth Prince has to use Feng Qingchen. After all, the Ninth Prince is the only woman who is visible to the outside world. There are many people eyeing Feng Qingchen. It's like the first lady of a country. While enjoying the halo, she also has to take responsibilities.

The Ninth Prince can never love without distraction, let alone sit idly by for Qingchen. If the Ninth Prince is really written like that, I will be the first to vomit. Regarding the troubles around Qingchen, are there any problems that have not been solved one by one? I just want to say that the people around Qingchen are not only troubles, but also represent power and influence. Su Wan is easy to deal with, but there is not only one person behind Su Wan. Besides, is it worthwhile to break your bones for Su Wan?

The best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their troops, and the worst is to attack their cities. The Ninth Prince does have troops, but can 500,000 troops destroy a country? If he doesn't have enough strength to destroy the four countries at the same time, exposing his strength in advance would be courting death. By that time, not to mention the Emperor of Dongling, even Nanling, Xiling, and Beiling would not let him go. The four countries would join forces with the Ninth Prince and he would have nothing to do.
