Chapter 209 You Will Change Your Mind
Prince Xuan's Mansion
The moon hid behind the clouds, and the lights in all the courtyards of the palace were turned off. The entire palace was silent, except for Xiao Lingche's study, which was still brightly lit by candlelight.
Xiao Lingche sat at the desk, his eyes filled with frost, his fingers tapping the tabletop.
"Now that the Emperor has sent the Crown Prince south and entrusted him with an important task, his intentions are clear."
Qingshi answered while holding the sword
"Your Majesty, you have accumulated many years of military exploits. Even if the Crown Prince can successfully return this time, he cannot be compared with you."
Xiao Lingche glanced at him
"What do you know? Just because he's the Crown Prince, he's enough to put me above him. My father sent him on this trip simply to silence the ministers and make it easier for him to secure his position. For years, I've worked hard to get to where I am today, just to get him to look at me more. I didn't expect him to be so partial to me!"
Xiao Lingche clenched his fists and slammed them hard on the table. He had thought the prince's legs would never heal, so this was his chance. Unexpectedly, they were healed! Actually, they were healed! Hahahahahaha…
Even the woman he loved was snatched away from him. He was unwilling to accept this. Why could the prince be born with nothing to gain everything he had fought so hard for?
No! He wants to take them all back!
He was not interested in the country originally, but now he is full of fighting spirit. He wants both the country and the beauty.
Qingshi looked at the prince, his face suddenly became stern, and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
In fact, he felt sorry for the prince. If the prince also had a powerful mother, he would not have worked so hard for so many years and finally got nothing.
However, Miss Ye was killed by the prince himself, this cannot be refuted, and it has caused him to not be able to see Qingxia, and he has no place to complain about his suffering.
But he didn't dare to say it in front of the prince, so he could only think about it silently in his heart.
He asked cautiously
"So what does the prince plan to do?"
Xiao Lingche narrowed his eyes. He always felt that Qingge and the prince's acquaintance was too strange.
Maybe it was him who killed the tiger and saved Qingge at the hunting ground, so they knew each other so early?
At that time he also asked Qingge who saved her, but she fooled him. Now it seems that everything has a clue.
So how did they meet? He sorted out all the events in his mind. When Qingge was taken away by Hua Manlou, she returned safely after a period of time.
She was captured by Hua Man Lou's men. Logically, there was no chance of her surviving. Moreover, they later created a fake corpse to deceive him. He chased after Hua Man Lou. Although the owner of the building was wearing a mask, his figure...
He suddenly thought of something and immediately stood up and slammed the table. Isn't Hua Manlou's location near Lingyun Mountain? And the prince has been recuperating in Lingyun Mountain, so there is only one possibility.
The prince is the owner of Huamanlou!
He laughed as if he had discovered some shocking secret, and Qingshi shuddered.
The imperial court and Hua Man Lou have always kept their distance from each other and maintained an invisible balance for many years.
However, the imperial court absolutely does not allow court officials to have any contact with Hua Manlou. Now the prince is actually the owner of Hua Manlou. I wonder if my father will be furious when he knows the news?
His beloved son turned out to be a gang leader. Wasn't this a blatant provocation to the imperial court? How was this different from treason?
Humph, with this important secret, let's see how he can sit in that position
But this is not enough, he has to add fuel to the fire, and when he is unable to take care of himself, he will give him a fatal blow. By then, the entire country and Qingge will be his, all his!
Qingshi looked at the prince's gloomy face, wondering what he was thinking. Sometimes he looked sad, and sometimes he smiled horribly.
"My lord, are you okay?"
"Hmph, what could possibly happen to this prince? But the prince might be in trouble."
"What's wrong with the prince?"
"What do you think will happen if I tell my father that I am the owner of Hua Man Lou?"
Qingshi stared at Xiao Lingche with wide eyes
"Your Highness, you mean, the Crown Prince..."
Impossible, Qingshi was a little bit unconvinced. The prince has been in a wheelchair for many years and can hardly take care of himself, so how could he be the owner of Hua Manlou?
"That's right, I finally understand why Qingge suddenly married him. It turns out that at that time, I personally sent her to him, and they knew each other at that time."
Xiao Lingche regretted it at this moment, but now was not the time to regret. He had to hurry up so that he could bring Qingge back to his side as soon as possible.
Qingshi was confused. What was the prince saying? He didn't understand a word.
Xiao Lingche took out a letter from the secret compartment
"bluestone"
"exist"
"You should personally deliver this letter to Qi State. It has been a long time since I last met with the Emperor of Qi State."
I originally wanted to ask the Regent for help, but now it is of little use, and he doesn't care about Shen Qingqing at all.
If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't break up now, he would have divorced her long ago. When he unified the world, he would divorce her immediately. Only Qingge could be his only wife.
"Your Highness, the Emperor of Qi, formerly the Crown Prince, fought alongside you on the battlefield and later became your sworn brother. All these years have passed, and you haven't contacted them. Why are you suddenly contacting them now?"
Xiao Lingche looked at the bluestone pig-like head and couldn't help wanting to twist it off and kick it out.
He held his forehead and kicked him on the leg. Qingshi stumbled forward, but luckily he managed to stabilize himself in time.
"Although Qi State hasn't been at war with Dongling, it hasn't expressed friendship either. The two countries share a common enemy, and they only maintain a superficial peace. If I, with my status, were to frequently exchange letters with the Emperor of Qi, wouldn't I be accused of treason if this were to get out?"
After hearing this, Qingshi suddenly realized
"So what does the prince want now?"
"I just want him to do me a favor."
"Oh"
Qingshi seemed to understand, but he didn't quite understand. He took the letter and carefully placed it inside his clothes. Although he didn't know what the prince wanted Qi Guo to do for him, he was still cautious. After all, if he was discovered, it would be a serious crime punishable by the death of nine generations of his family.
"Also, send secret guards to investigate Hua Manlou. We need sufficient evidence to convince Father. Proceed with caution!"
"As you command, my lord. I will go right away."
Qingshi took the order and went down. It seemed that the prince was going to take the initiative this time. Does that mean that he would see Qingxia again soon? Thinking of this, Qingshi did not dare to delay for a moment and rushed to deliver the letter.
Xiao Lingche stepped out of the study, looked up at the bright moon emerging from the clouds in the sky, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.
Wait till the clouds clear and the moon appears, he will soon have his bright moon
Qingge, no matter how you treat me now, I will take you back. I will let you beat and scold me as long as you stay by my side. We have experienced so much together and have so many beautiful memories together.
I believe that you will change your mind!
