"Did you hear that?"
"The prince kidnapped the general's daughter a few days ago and planned to do evil things, which caused a big fuss."
"His Majesty ordered him to apologize immediately."
"Huh, apologize?"
"The prince has always been a playboy and unruly. The last time he stayed in a brothel day and night, your majesty also punished him, but the prince threatened to die and refused to stop."
"But this time we have provoked General Ye's mansion. He has a high position and holds military power. If the prince does not apologize, I am afraid that a storm is about to come."
…
Baiguan stopped muttering and looked at the young man walking out of the middle of the hall in surprise.
Xia Lingxuan stood in the court hall.
Wearing a white robe with dragon patterns, he looked calm and handsome, showing his nobility and elegance.
When such a scene fell into the eyes of all the officials, they were all surprised. The prince actually lost the arrogance of the past, and his exaggerated and coquettish clothes made people feel deeply surprised.
"My son, I will meet my father."
He saluted Emperor Xia who was sitting on the throne.
Everyone's eyes widened instantly.
They looked at the prince in horror and almost recognized the wrong person.
Without thinking much, Xia Lingxuan turned to face the suffering master:
"I shouldn't have been greedy for pleasure and acted dissolutely. I almost smeared the innocent name of General Ye's daughter. I can't absolve myself of the blame."
"Please allow me to solemnly apologize. I don't ask for Ms. Ye's forgiveness. I just hope that this can prove your innocence."
Without waiting for Emperor Xia's response, he continued to look at the focus of the hall.
I saw a powerful general with an angry face standing on the side.
And next to him.
An eighteen-year-old girl, with a face like a peach blossom, eyes like autumn water, a plump figure, a slender waist and long legs that are astonishing, and she can be said to be alluring to the city.
Her pretty face was as cold as frost, her silver teeth were tightly clasped, and the veins on her tender hands were visible.
But just when she was about to accuse the prince of his crimes, he apologized abnormally. For a moment, his pupils were slightly dilated, his pretty face lost control like an avalanche, and his cherry mouth did not close for a long time.
Xia Lingxuan solemnly took out a half-palm-sized glass-shaped spiritual fruit, placed it on a tray, walked to the girl and said seriously:
"I heard that Miss Ye's cultivation has reached a bottleneck and she is about to build a foundation. This Nine Orifices Exquisite Fruit can wash away the qualifications before building a foundation. It can not only enhance the probability of foundation building, but also enhance the effect of foundation building."
"There is one in the royal treasury. Now I will give it to Miss Ye as an apology gift."
After saying that, he pushed the spiritual fruit to Ye Baizhi who was stunned.
After the words fell, the entire hall became extremely quiet.
Nine orifices exquisite fruit?
You actually gave away the Nine Apertures Exquisite Fruit so casually?
You must know that the most rare treasure in the world is a treasure that can improve your qualifications and enhance your potential. This spiritual fruit is so precious that the entire royal family only has this one.
All the officials were surprised and confused. Looking at the polite and considerate prince in front of him, they felt extremely mysterious.
Is this still the same prince as before?
Or is that the prince who doesn't even want to say sorry, let alone an apology?
Even Emperor Xia, who was sitting on the jade chair, was dumbfounded and even a little heartbroken.
The Nine-Aperture Exquisite Fruit is a treasure that even makes him moved.
This unfilial son was sent away by me with just one sentence?
Not to mention, this tyrannical traitor actually apologized?
Looking at the unfamiliar prince in front of him, Emperor Xia remembered that before going to court today, he promised the prince to ask for an apology from the court. He thought that this traitor would make a fool of himself and be punished severely.
But now, what kind of trouble will happen again?
Could this traitor be planning something?
In silence, everyone's eyes converged on the Ye family's father and daughter.
But neither of them was as angry as before, with tears in their eyes.
They all looked at Xia Lingxuan blankly, speaking clumsily. They actually forgot all about the words they wanted to accuse him of, and they couldn't remember it at all.
"My guilt will never go away."
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Xia Lingxuan took two steps forward and said again:
"I hope General Ye and Miss Ye can accept this gift as my sincere apology."
"This is all my fault. I shouldn't have acted drunkenly, and I shouldn't have ignored Miss Ye's innocence and slept on the same bed together when she was drunk and confused, causing everyone to criticize her."
"I just ask Miss Ye to forgive me for my mistakes."
At this moment, another thunder echoed through the hall.
All the officials looked at each other in disbelief, it was simply shocking.
Is this dandy prince really feeling guilty, and not because of the authority of the General's Mansion?
At this moment, Emperor Xia took advantage of the situation and said, "Ye Qing, although this rebellious son did something indecent, it did not lead to a big mistake. The daughter of Ai Qing happens to be building the foundation. You can accept this Nine Aperture Exquisite Fruit with peace of mind."
General Ye is tall and powerful, and is invulnerable to all enemies, but at this moment, he has to give face to Emperor Xia.
Not to mention that although Xia Lingxuan was drunk and slept in the same bed as Bai Zhi, they were not a man and a woman.
Now my apology is sincere, and I am even more willing to give up such a precious treasure.
He glanced at his daughter for the last time and saw that although she frowned, she had no intention of going into details. He put his hands together and bowed:
"I thank your majesty and the prince for the gift."
After that, let her daughter put away the spiritual fruit.
Although there was no word of apology in his words, accepting the spiritual fruit did not imply that he would no longer pursue the matter.
In the middle of the hall, Xia Lingxuan's eyes flashed with hidden surprise.
【drop! The apology was successful and the system is activated! 】
[Listen to advice system: As long as you listen to advice, you can get various rewards. 】
Is the persuasion system really activated?
Can you get rewards just by following advice?
Oh, I have been a waste for so many years, and I can finally turn around.
Xia Lingxuan didn't need to think too much before he started testing.
"Father, I have apologized to Miss Ye and General Ye today. If my father has any other instructions, I will do my best to fulfill them."
He suddenly stepped forward, again unexpectedly.
All officials are numb, really numb.
They looked at the prince blankly, and all of them were in confusion.
When did the prince become so humble and polite?
Ever since the prince started to interact with officials, he has been extremely rebellious. When His Majesty asked him to go east, he would go west. The two have never dealt with each other.
Moreover, the prince has always been accustomed to talking back and has never had a good word with his majesty.
The sun comes out in the west today?
I actually saw the prince admitting his mistake and asking for advice from your majesty.
Everyone's expressions were gloomy and uncertain, but they didn't say much. Whoever gets involved in royal affairs will die.
The spiritual energy in Emperor Xia's body was in chaos.
He looked down at Nizi, who was waiting for a reply, with a confused look on his face.
For a moment, I didn’t know if the other person was really asking for advice, or was he just being weird and blaming himself for accusing him in the past?
Emperor Xia has been in charge of the government for many years. What storms and waves have he not seen?
Soon, he regained his composure and immediately sneered.
Oh, it is easy to change a country, but it is difficult to change one's nature.
What kind of traitor is this? How can he escape from his own eyes?
This time he listened to the advice, apologized when asked, and was so well-behaved. There must be something bigger waiting for him. In this case, it is better to take action in advance.
"Hmph, a dignified prince of a country who has no knowledge or skills and spends his days just having fun and having fun. How can he take up such a big responsibility and live up to the expectations of the people of the world at dawn?"
As soon as Emperor Xia spoke, all the officials bowed their heads.
"Since you asked for advice."
"Then voluntarily go to the ancestral temple to think about your mistakes and copy the Great Virtue Sutra every day. When will you break through the Qi practice and when will you be able to leave the ancestral temple? Otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences."
The brilliant words are like the sound of bells and drums, firm and unchangeable.
Not only the officials were shocked.
Even Ye Baizhi and General Ye, who originally had resentment towards Xia Lingxuan, were dumbfounded with complicated expressions. They looked at each other's thin figures and remained silent for a long time.
In the past, when the prince made a mistake, although he was punished, it was not so serious. This shows how serious the matter was, and even the suffering master Ye Baizhi felt that it was a bit too much.
After all, no one in the whole court knew that the prince was born with a mortal body.
Not to mention Qi training, even the slightest bit of cultivation is impossible.
He was required to face the wall and reflect on his faults and practice his Qi before he could leave. This was an ordinary requirement for everyone.
For the prince, it is extremely difficult to ascend to heaven.
I'm afraid I won't be able to get out for the rest of my life.
Your Majesty, this is to put the prince under house arrest in disguise!
But this is fine, as this dude will cause trouble all the time and ruin the reputation of our Xia Dynasty.
At this time, Xia Lingxuan was not as depressed as everyone thought, but instead was extremely excited.
He silently checked the information that stayed in his mind after his father spoke out.
[Hey, go to the ancestral temple and face the wall for three days and think about it]
[Task Difficulty: Extremely Easy]
[Reward: Unknown (white)]
[Reward levels: white, yellow, green, blue, purple, red, gold]
White reward?
What I thought was right, as long as others make suggestions, there will be corresponding rewards.
I don’t know what good things this white reward will have.
He resisted the thought of continuing to explore, looked at the smiling Emperor Xia, bowed, and said solemnly:
"Thank you for your teaching. I will go to the ancestral temple right away, face the wall, think about my mistakes, and copy scriptures. I will never take a step forward without practicing Qi."
After finishing speaking, Xia Lingxuan left the hall happily.
Look at the other person's impatient behavior.
All the officials in the palace were full of questions, their hearts were filled with absurd thoughts, and they couldn't help but think wildly.
Prince, are you so obedient today?
