Chapter 180: Continue to train the dog
Seeing that the villains had been almost tamed by her, Ye Xiaoman finally spoke with satisfaction, "I think it's necessary to strengthen the loyalty among our allies."
The people present nodded repeatedly, "Of course, of course."
Ye Xiaoman said, "Okay, Prince Teng, you now swear a blood oath. If you ever attack me again and threaten my life, you, Prince Teng, will be destroyed and disappear with me into the underworld."
Prince Teng was a single-line earth spiritual root, and was about to establish his foundation. He looked at his grandfather and mother helplessly, and Concubine Shu's face fell.
Ye Xiaoman took the teacup from the prince's hand and wiped the tea foam with the cup lid.
"I'll help you dethrone the prince, but what happens next?"
"Prince Teng ascended the throne, and Consort Shu became the Empress Dowager. You hold great power, and I, a useless pawn, know too many secrets. You can do whatever you want to me."
"After the emperor dies, the young concubines will be buried with him. You will definitely be happy to add me to the list of people to be buried with him and bury me in the imperial mausoleum."
"Even if you have a conscience, I have deceived Ji Wenyi's feelings. As long as he is still alive, he will not let me go. It is better to let Prince Teng protect me for life. If he lives, I live, and if he dies... well, I am still alive."
In short, she must capture Prince Teng. He is the only child left by Concubine Shu. If he dies, the ambition of the prince's uncle will not be realized.
Ye Xiaoman and Concubine Shu looked at each other, "Your Majesty, don't be angry with me. You want to protect yourself, and I want to protect myself too. People will try everything to survive."
"Open your eyes, we are doing business together."
"I am willing." Prince Teng took the initiative to say.
He was terrified of Ji Wenyi. If he couldn't seize the throne, he would be killed immediately. They just had to refrain from harming Ye Xiaoman.
"You are worthy of being respected by Imperial Preceptor Jiaying." Concubine Shu laughed and praised, "You have the charm of my daughter in her youth."
Whenever she thought of her short-lived daughter, she immediately shared the same hatred with Ye Xiaoman.
The king's uncle also showed his sincerity in cooperation.
"I also swear a blood oath with you. As long as you can make Ji Wenyi lose his position as crown prince, no, lose his position as priest, my family has some influence in Ximing country and will immediately help you return to your country and return to the pinnacle of power."
Ye Xiaoman nodded.
That’s good. She also helped Gong Xier find a way out.
"Don't worry. Although our Yuzhang Qi family's methods are not bright, we always keep our promises to others."
"It's a deal."
After Ye Xiaoman and the Shufei forces finished their plan, they were welcomed back to the palace.
She walked forward steadily until she reached an empty corner. Her legs felt a little weak, so she held onto the railing and sat down with an unfathomable look on her face.
Scared to death.
I have never been so pretentious in my two lifetimes.
She was essentially getting something for nothing, taking advantage of the conflicts between the two biggest forces in the Divine Realm, the imperial power and the aristocratic families, and playing with them in her hands.
If the car overturns, the entire divine realm will hunt you down, and the consequences will be severe.
I was so scared that my hair stood on end.
You must give me a raise when I go online!
In the evening, Ye Xiaoman took the initiative to step into the teleportation array and visit the Prince's Mansion.
Ji Wenyi has not returned home yet, and the mansion is still as magnificent as ever, but the guards are on high alert and the atmosphere is a little tense.
"Oh, I don't know what's wrong with Prince Teng. He has sent someone to assassinate the master again."
"The Left Censor suddenly impeached the master for forming a clique and plotting something illegal, and for misleading the emperor. This resulted in the master being urgently summoned to the palace by the emperor to face him."
"And the generals guarding the border suddenly launched an uprising because the food and fodder were not distributed in time..."
"Why are so many bad things happening suddenly?"
"Our master is incredibly busy. Sanqi said he didn't even have time for lunch..."
Ye Xiaoman was very satisfied after hearing this. Concubine Shu’s execution ability was perfect.
So much can be done in less than a day.
Ji Wenyi will have a headache next.
As for her, she only feels sorry for her brother.
Ye Xiaoman stayed in the garden. She wanted to play the role of a perfect girlfriend and go to the door to welcome Ji Wenyi home, but she thought better of it.
Xiao Chujing also lives in the Prince's Mansion. If she runs into him, she will have no way to defend herself.
She couldn't tell Xiao Chujing that she had found a summer job where her job was to help Ji Wenyi count his abdominal muscles.
She felt guilty and took the initiative to ask Xiao Chujing about his well-being:
[Senior Brother Xiao, are you okay?]
Xiao Chujing was repairing a damaged magic weapon in the room, and he felt warm in his heart when he received Ye Xiaoman's greetings.
[I'm fine. By the way, do you know Jiaying?]
Ye Xiaoman: He and I are just casual acquaintances, but he seems to have become suspicious of my identity and is paying extra attention to me.
Xiao Chujing: That's good... Senior Brother means that it's bad that he suspects you. I will enter the palace to accompany you as soon as possible.
【Sikong Qing: Where are the people?】
[Sikong Qing: Where did he die?]
Sikong Qing: You said you missed me, so why didn't you answer my calls?
[Sikong Qing: Are you addicted to pretending to be dead? Believe it or not, I will go to the Divine Realm to find you immediately?]
Ye Xiaoman: Brother Xiao, I'm going to eat first. We'll talk later. Bye.
Ye Xiaoman: Sikong Qing, I'm here. I was eating and didn't check the message.
…
Ye Xiaoman swung on the swing, dealt with Sikong Qing's bombardment of messages, and admired the magnificent sunset.
I saw the mermaid secret guard passing by carrying a food bucket.
He had prepared the dishes in the pavilion in the garden in advance, waiting for Ji Wenyi to come back and enjoy them.
Ye Xiaoman took the initiative to approach him and took out the wine and food she had prepared from her storage bag. "I made a few dishes myself, you can use mine."
The mermaid lowered her head, not daring to look at her master's woman.
Ji Wenyi had already ordered Ye Xiaoman to move freely, so he did not remove Ye Xiaoman's dishes. He just used the magic weapon carefully to check whether the things she brought were poisoned.
When Ji Wenyi returned home, he happened to see the chief secret guard Sanqi being blocked in a corner by Ye Xiaoman and being questioned.
Ji Wenyi stopped and listened to her questions for a while, which were nothing more than his preferences, including what he liked to eat and what hobbies he had.
Ji Wenyi was used to being pursued by many noble ladies, and he just took it as a sign that Ye Xiaoman was secretly in love with him.
He coughed.
When Sanqi saw Ji Wenyi coming back, he felt as if he had been pardoned. His face flushed red, and he didn't know how many times Ye Xiaoman had secretly touched his hand. He quickly saluted and retreated.
Palace lanterns rose like stars. With flowers as the background, Ye Xiaoman walked towards Ji Wenyi gracefully. Her snow-white gauze skirt relaxed as she walked at a slightly hurried pace, making her look like a flower in bud.
She stood timidly at a polite distance, looking frail and sickly. After only a few steps, she clutched her heart and gasped softly.
Ji Wenyi did not forget that he was playing the role of liking her and extended a hand to her.
Ye Xiaoman put her hand on his palm, and he grabbed her and pulled her slightly into his arms. She gasped and fell into his arms.
Ji Wenyi picked her up and walked towards the pavilion where the food table was already set up.
"Your Highness," Ye Xiaoman said in a pinched voice, "I can walk by myself."
Ji Wenyi said nonchalantly, "Yeah."
Still didn't let her go.
