Emperor Mu narrowed his eyes and slowly sat up straight: "Use?"
Princess Qixia nodded, with a sad look on her face: "I'm betting, using my reputation to bet on whether God will be kind enough to give me a child after that madness."
Emperor Mu turned to look at Rong Cang and Qi Jin, and seemed to have understood Princess Qixia's true intention.
"God seems to have heard my request and really gave me a child." Princess Qixia raised a smile on her lips, but it revealed a desperate determination. "With this child, I will be involved with the Prince Qi of the Chu Kingdom." , I can bring my children to recognize my ancestors and return to my clan. As long as I can successfully set foot on the territory of Chu State, I will have the opportunity to negotiate with His Majesty the Emperor and use the power of Chu State to take revenge."
Qi Jin is the son of Marquis Zhongyi and the eldest princess, and he is also the only son. His status is extremely valuable. The couple had military power in their hands and could not turn a blind eye to their grandson.
Princess Qixia had saved Qi Jin's life. Even if they knew that she had other intentions, they would not feel resentful. If Emperor Mu valued Zhongyi Hou and his wife, he would value Qi Jin, and Qi Jin's children would also love the house and the bird.
There was also the incident where King Zhan saved Qi Jin three years ago, which made Princess Qixia see the prince's affection, and she would not sit idly by either.
As long as she comes to Chu State smoothly and allows them to see Qi Jin's child, she will have a powerful ally.
So it's not love at first sight, nor is it blind sacrifice, nor is it the so-called lust.
She had a plan, and she took advantage of Dugu Yinyun's opportunity to drug Qi Jin, and suddenly came up with a revenge plan, and she really saved Qi Jin's life and gave birth to a child.
Emperor Mu nodded slowly, as expected this was only reasonable.
If the noble princess really made such a big sacrifice for a man because she fell in love at first sight, he would never believe it.
If Princess Qixia insists on such an explanation, he will become more suspicious of the other party's intentions.
But in this case, even if she had a plan for Qi Jin, her purpose was no longer simple. What should they do in the future?
Let Princess Qixia marry Qi Jin?
Emperor Mu raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, unable to make up his mind for a moment.
Qi Jin's mood was much more complicated now.
He actually doesn't hate Princess Qixia. Although he has never met her before, from the time she entered the palace to now, he has always felt that she is a brave and resourceful woman, and he is grateful for the fact that he was saved by her, but... Did she actually have some scheming intentions and deliberately take advantage of him?
It can't be said that he was angry, because if she hadn't calculated it, he might have been killed by that villain Dugu Yinyun. He could only blame himself for his incompetence, which not only put him in danger, but also almost caused Rong Cang to have an accident.
Now that the truth was revealed, he himself was a little unsure about how to treat Princess Qixia and the child.
The relationship between them is not a simple relationship between a man and a woman, nor is it a matter between two people, but involves the positions of the two countries. If you are not careful, it may lay hidden dangers for the future.
"So the princess wants to cooperate with the Chu State?" Emperor Mu smiled faintly, and the emperor's majesty was faintly revealed. "Since it is cooperation, we must show sincerity and attitude. In addition to this child, I wonder if Princess Qixia can also show other things. A more powerful bargaining chip?”
Princess Qixia slowly looked around at the officials on the opposite table: "I have the chips and the sincerity, but is His Majesty the Emperor sure that he wants to talk here?"
Emperor Mu understood what she meant and quickly stood up: "Everyone, please leave. No one is allowed to leak a single word of my conversation with Princess Qixia today, otherwise I will punish her nine tribes!"
"I don't dare!" The officials stood up and knelt down, shouting that they didn't dare.
"Rong Cang, please bring Princess Qixia to the Qinzheng Hall. Qi Jin will come too."
"Best regards, Your Majesty, long live my Emperor!"
Emperor Mu walked in front, followed by Rong Cang, and finally Qi Jin and Princess Qixia.
The long and winding palace corridor seems to have no end. Princess Qixia's figure is slender and straight, looking calmly ahead: "Prince Qi will not be angry, right?"
"I don't seem to have any reason to be angry." Qi Jin said truthfully, "It's just that I suddenly have a son, so I feel a little complicated."
"If you don't like this child, I won't force you to accept it." Princess Qixia said, "But for the sake of your father and son, please do your best to find an antidote for him."
"I didn't say I didn't like him." Qi Jin looked confused, "I'm just...a little disappointed."
"A little disappointed?" Princess Qixia turned her head to look at him, seemingly puzzled, "Why are you disappointed?"
Qi Jin pouted: "I thought you fell in love with me at first sight, so you saved me from danger."
Princess Qixia was silent for a moment: "As the son of Marquis Zhongyi, are you so simple?"
"What do you mean?" Qi Jin was displeased, "You said I have no brain?"
Princess Qixia stared at the anger on his face, thinking of her first impression of him three years ago, and slightly raised her lips: "During the days when you were imprisoned by Dugu Yinyun, I actually saw you several times."
Qi Jin frowned and blurted out: "Then why don't you let me out?"
Princess Qixia raised her eyebrows, half smiling.
Qi Jinze instantly realized that he had asked a stupid question. Dugu Yinyun was a prince after all, and the outside of the courtyard was heavily guarded. Even if she let him go, he would have no chance to escape.
However, not long after he took the traditional Chinese medicine, Dugu Yinyun took him to the border military camp to threaten the border troops of Chu State. He also deliberately sent the news to Rong Cang in an attempt to lure him into a trap.
Qi Jin's heart sank slightly: "I want to ask you, was it your idea that Prince Dugu used me to lure Prince Zhan to rescue him?"
"What do you think?" Princess Qixia looked at him again as if she were looking at an idiot. "What good will it do me to kill the King of War? In the plan I made, the person who can help me the most is him. If he There are three long and two shortcomings, how can I take revenge?"
Just as Qi Jin was about to say something else, Emperor Mu, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and said, "You two are getting along well?"
Qi Jin looked up and realized that they had arrived outside Qinzheng Hall.
Emperor Mu's eyes seemed to see through everything, which made Qi Jin feel guilty.
