The fourth prince of Xirong left in a hurry, not giving Luo Xing a chance to refuse, but he met Qingyi who came to see Luo Xing in the corridor at the door and saw how beautiful Qingyi was.
The fourth prince Xinga couldn't help but tease him.
Qingyi didn't know the fourth prince, but she recognized that the other prince had an unusual identity from his clothes, especially the unique Xirong hairstyle with dreadlocks.
Just one word in reply: Get out!
If this were on the street, Qingyi would have slapped him with a big slap.
The fourth prince of Xirong seems to know that this is not his own territory. If he really gets entangled, he is probably the one who will suffer. The person in the room can easily win even the second-grade martial arts master, and he himself is only a second-grade martial arts master.
"Xiao Qi, who was that person who went out just now, so rude?" Qingyi always called her by name in the yamen. Calling "husband" is a little too inappropriate.
"Fourth Prince of Xirong, did he harass you just now?" Luo Xing's six senses were sharp. Although he didn't see what happened outside the door with his own eyes, he heard it, so he naturally understood what was going on, and of course he was angry.
"It's okay, it's just a bed bug."
"Haha, it does stink." Luo Xing was amused by Qingyi's metaphor. The smell of Xirong people was indeed a bit strong.
"Is this a gift from him?" Qingyi saw a gift list on the desk, took it out curiously, and exclaimed in surprise, "Why are there four little girls from Xirong?"
"What?" Luo Xing didn't take the gift list seriously. Anyway, he wouldn't accept the things the fourth prince gave him, let alone take them back.
Unexpectedly, this guy actually sent four people over to him.
This Xirong man’s gift-giving is too...
"Quick, Chanjuan, chase the fourth prince of Xirong and return all the gifts here to me!" Luo Xing hurriedly called Xu Chanjuan.
If it is ordinary property, he will not accept it and leave it to the Grand Governor to deal with. Whether to return or keep it is none of his business. But this person is different. He must not accept the little girl from Xirong. If he accepts it, he can still Can't you keep it at home?
After a while, Xu Chanjuan came in and reported that the person had gone far and could not catch up.
"No one else touches these gifts. Send them all to the Xirong Envoy Court. Just say that it is my duty to save him. I dare not accept such a heavy gift!" Luo Xing ordered.
"No!" Xu Chanjuan took the order and left.
"What does the fourth prince of Xirong want to do?" Qingyi asked curiously, "This is soliciting, threatening, and giving you away. Is his brain broken?"
"Xirong is not like us. The battle for the throne is more bloody and cruel. This fourth prince can stand out among many princes. He is by no means an ordinary person. His move must have deep meaning, but we can't figure it out yet." Luo Xingdao .
"Uncle Meng said, are you going to the ghost market tonight?"
"Yes, let's go meet the mysterious hag and buy some maids and servants. The inner courtyard is separated from the outer courtyard. We must cultivate some caring people!" Luo Xing said.
"Well, shall I go with you?" Qingyi's eyes flickered a few times.
"Okay, I wanted to call Brother Tieniu. Since you want to go, let's come together." Naturally, Luo Xing didn't mind bringing Qingyi with him. He probably had little control over this servant in the mansion.
"Call Hongying?"
"also."
Hong Ying is bored at home and really needs to go out to relax, and he will practice cultivation after he comes back. This is called hard work. Haste makes waste, so he has to combine work and rest. He might as well go to the ghost market to relax together.
"Qingfan and the others won't go. It's a memory they can't bear to look back on." Luo Xing said.
…
"Your Majesty, early this morning, the fourth prince of Xirong went to Nanya to meet Luo Xing with gifts."
"Oh, is he going to thank Luo Xing for saving his life at Anyangdu Post House?" Emperor Yongxi on the throne put down the scroll in his hand and asked with interest.
"It should be, but the gifts were all returned by Mr. Luo. Now they are piled at the entrance of the Xirong Envoy Courtyard, along with four young ladies from Xirong."
"Xirong people are still as barbaric and uncivilized as ever, and they even use people to give gifts?" Emperor Yongxi chuckled.
"Your Majesty, the things given by the Xirong people will not be taken back. But Mr. Luo returned the gifts. Those belongings are just that, easy to deal with. But what to do with the four young ladies from Xirong? You can't just ignore them. Starving to death or freezing to death, wouldn’t it harm my great Zhou’s benevolence?”
"Toothless, what do you think should be done?"
"I think it's not a bad idea to let Mr. Luo accept this gift. After all, doesn't he also have a woman named Hong Ying by his side?"
"That woman has been abandoned by Xirong, what do you want to say?" Emperor Yongxi asked.
"These four young ladies from Xirong will be trained by this Hongying. If they can be put to good use in the future, it will be a good move for the imperial court." Wei Wuya said.
"Well, it makes sense. Let me think about it. Luo Qing has his own reasons for not accepting the gift from the fourth prince of Xirong, but it is different if I ask him to accept it." Emperor Yongxi nodded.
"Qixi, deliver the message..."
…
"Eunuch Xi, is this really what your Majesty said?" Luo Xing was confused after receiving the imperial edict. Emperor Yongxi had nothing to do all day long, so he still cares about this matter?
Isn't it child's play to take back all the gifts and then take them back? What is this?
However, since the emperor had given a verbal order, he had to accept the gift, but those four little Xirong girls were clearly the spies of the Xirong people.
Although they are young, their parents and family are all in Xirong. They only need to control it a little bit, but they still have to be obedient?
This is an immature female wolf cub.
"Which son of a bitch came up with this bad idea?"
"Xu, Brother Qi, you have to keep your voice down. It was Eunuch Wei of the Imperial City who suggested it." Qixi hurriedly covered her mouth and whispered.
"Wei Wuya, I give him no grievances, why should he harm me?"
Qixi didn't know what to say. Luo Xing was from Nanya, and he had this kind of relationship with him. Behind him was Wang Haifeng, and his relationship with Wei Wuya was quite subtle. If several things were added together, wouldn't it be related?
"Happy father-in-law..."
"Brother Qi, you and I are still so different from each other. I can call you Qixi or Xiaoxizi." Qixi said with a resentful look.
"Brother Qixi, although His Majesty's holy will is unpredictable, as the person closest to His Majesty, you can somewhat see it. What is the deep meaning of Your Majesty asking me to accept the gift from the Fourth Prince of Xirong this time?" Luo Xingxing said humbly. Ask for advice.
"Seventh Brother, I don't dare to guess what His Majesty is thinking, but right now it's the case of the mastermind behind the assassination of the Fourth Prince of Xirong. Do you understand?"
"Does Your Majesty want the truth, or do you want His Majesty's truth?"
Qixi chuckled and did not answer.
Can Luo Xing still understand that Emperor Yongxi just wants to pin the charge of mastermind on Ye Liuli? When the time comes, she will have to accept the marriage.
Trading a former prince's daughter for a few years or decades of peace on the northwest border, so that he could free up his hands to deal with Nanchu, was a good deal.
…
"Your Majesty wants to exchange His Highness's life's happiness for the tranquility of the northwest border." Luo Xing sent Qixi away. After returning, he sighed and said to Qingyi.
"Then what should I do? Even if you find out the truth, I'm afraid His Majesty won't accept it and won't let you announce it." Qingyi said anxiously.
"Yes, this is the will of the superior. If you don't obey, you can only find someone who obeys." Luo Xing said.
The truth is not worth mentioning in the face of the so-called overall situation.
Unless he can change Emperor Yongxi's mind or have a stronger force that can change the overall situation, even if the truth is found out, he will not be able to change anything.
"Women are just bargaining chips, and interests are the most important." Luo Xing continued, "Your Majesty now needs a stable Xirong and a business path that can bring wealth, and Your Highness is a key chess piece."
"Then what should we do, really let Your Highness marry the Wolf Lord of Xirong, a man older than Your Majesty, and ruin her life?"
"I also want to help, but what can you and I do?" Don't blame Luo Xing for being selfish. In fact, he is not from this world and does not have a strong sense of belonging to this world.
Even if he had a relationship with Ye Liuli when they were children, he didn't owe Ye Liuli that, let alone a brief encounter in childhood.
Yes, Ye Liuli helped him a lot, and he should indeed help, but he had to help within his ability. His current power and status were given by Emperor Yongxi.
Yes, he doesn't care about this, but this is his current identity. Can he just get rid of it?
A person can be carefree when he is alone, but when he has a lover and relatives, he can no longer be carefree.
This world may not necessarily progress because of his presence, but it will definitely leave his traces and unique splendor.
He has always wanted to leave Nanya and live the free life he wanted, but reality has connected him more and more closely with Nanya.
Even if he has accumulated enough merit points to leave Nanya now, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to just slap his butt and leave.
When a person lives, in addition to survival, he also has responsibilities.
As for what he is pursuing, he does not have a clear goal in his heart. He can only say that at this stage, what he wants to do and what he wants to get, as for the further things, he cannot imagine it yet.
Too far.
Some people aspire to be the best in the world, some want to be the richest man, others want to create a sect of their own, etc.
As for Luo Xing, he just wants to be able to be free with his beloved one day and live unfettered under the blue sky until the day when dust returns to dust and dust returns to earth.
All the king's plans for hegemony are empty and illusory. In the end, they are nothing more than a handful of loess.
Who in this world has ever heard of a spirit beast that can live forever, as powerful as the Dragon Mother of the South China Sea, but it also has a lifespan limit. As for the legendary spirit master, it seems that he has finally passed away.
"Actually, Your Majesty has also entered into a misunderstanding. This marriage is not necessarily the best way. On the contrary, it may be the worst." Luo Xing said.
"ah?"
"Think about it, Your Highness is the daughter of the former Crown Prince. Yes, the former Crown Prince committed suicide because of rebellion, but no one is a fool. The body of the late Emperor may fly to the west at any time. The Crown Prince is the Crown Prince, so he has the necessary Rebellion to seize the throne? Besides, he is still young, and it’s not like he can’t afford to wait. It will only happen in three to five years. But if he is not charged with this crime, then it would be unfair for His Majesty to take the throne immediately. People in the future may not understand it. But none of the ministers in the court understood, and they all pretended to be confused. He suppressed it and sent His Highness to Xirong for marriage. It seemed that he was blind, but in fact, it was a stupid move, and His Highness was forced to marry. Xirong left with hatred, and Xirong and Zhou Dynasty will really coexist peacefully because of this, is it possible?" Luo Xing laughed, "I don't believe it anyway, and His Highness enters Xirong, then once the wolf lord of Xirong rises to attack Zhou , then there is an excuse, maybe, this great Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed by your Majesty’s hands!”
Qingyi's heart skipped a beat after hearing this. This was not impossible. Based on her understanding of Ye Liuli, this princess was by no means the kind of woman who would submit to others and would avenge her. She would never do that. Let Emperor Yongxi force him to have a feud with his relatives.
"Also, if His Highness is forced to marry the Wolf Lord of Xirong, and he decides to give birth to a son for the Wolf Lord of Xirong, then this son will be the crown prince. By then, civil strife in Xirong will definitely be inevitable. This must be what our Majesty wants to see. What we arrived is not what the Wolf Lord of Xirong wanted to see. Behind His Highness is the Tianlan Sect. If the Tianlan Sect really wants to march into Xirong, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This is not just a game between two parties, but also a game between three parties or even four parties." Luo Xing continued.
"Actually, if His Highness is really the instigator behind the assassination of the fourth prince, then if the Wolf Lord of Xirong knew about it, he might not necessarily marry her, right?"
"The ability of the Wolf Lord of Xirong is considered to be at the top among the previous monarchs of Xirong. A king like this has a problem, that is, he is very confident. With his cultivation and control ability, he feels that he can control everything. This competition is bloody and cruel. Yes, as long as it is within the controllable range, he will not think there is any problem. Moreover, this type of men also have a common problem, that is, the more they can't get, they want to get it. Conquest is a belief in Xirong's bones! "Luo Xing said, "If His Highness succeeds in arousing the desire to conquer the Xirong Wolf Lord, it will be troublesome."
"can you?"
"Qingyi, if you study what Xirong Wolf Lord Xin Li has done over the years, you will understand. There are many women in his harem, many of whom were snatched from other tribes, or even killed directly. Make other people’s women your own.”
"But this is the tradition of their Xirong tribe's attacks. The winner gets the loser's women and wealth?" Qingyi said.
"This is indeed their tradition, but once this practice penetrates into their blood, Xin Li, as the wolf master, will unconsciously take this behavior as a matter of course. This is why we always feel that the Xirong people are barbaric and uncivilized. The reason for aggression." Luo Xing said, "Of course, this is just our discussion and speculation. How we will choose will depend on the development of the situation. Your Highness is not completely hopeless. Until the last moment, there will be no choice at any time. You can make a comeback.”
Qingyi nodded.
In fact, everything has value. As long as the benefits are great enough, it is not impossible for the Xirong Wolf Lord to give up his proposal to marry Ye Liuli.
After all, Ye Liuli is just a woman, so what if she is a princess. In the eyes of the Xirong Wolf Lord, she may be nothing more than a fertility tool. At most, it can only give him a descendant with better blood, and he has to pay for this. Quite a few.
Liuli Temple didn't know what it was thinking. Why did it not worry that Tianlan Sect would replace it if it allowed Tianlan Sect to extend its hand into Xirong?
