Chapter 129.
by Jessie@AFNCCXu Qi’an felt very Kam!
When I received the jade pendant of the second princess yesterday, I thought that I might face this situation one day. I just didn’t expect retribution to come so quickly.
If this had happened in a previous life, the top line would have been: kids do multiple choice only!
Brace yourself for two slaps.
In this ancient time, it might have been exchanged for a bowl-sized scar.
“My humble servant is here is to ask the Eldest Princess a question about the Sang Po case.” Xu Qi’an turned around and cupped his fists towards the framing, implying that he was on official business.
But he overestimated the Second Princess’s intelligence, or underestimated her capriciousness and sassiness, as she crossed her arms and grunted coldly, “You won’t come and ask me for advice!”
When Princess Huaiqing heard this, she was a sneer on the spot, “Lin’an’s greatest strength is confidence.”
The irony is obvious to any fool.
The eldest princess has taken over the fire for me …. Xu Qi An sighed in relief, You guys argue, just treat me as a little transparent.
The second princess and her sister are at odds, fighting as children, to the present day, with all sorts of clear-cut disagreements.
“Huaiqing, Xu Qi’an is my man, he received my waist jade and has promised to serve me.” The Second Princess pinched her waist as she spoke, letting out a cold laugh:
“A good bird chooses a tree, who let some of them be petty. They want the horse to run, but they don’t give the horse grass. I’m much more generous.”
Seeing that the eldest princess didn’t say anything, she walked over to Xu Qi’an’s side, her beautiful eyes first cut a hard glance at Xu Qi’an, then declared her sovereignty: “You want to use my people, you can, you have to have me promise first. Today, this palace is in a bad mood and does not want you to use my people.”
Princess Huaiqing drank a mouthful of tea, smiled and did not say anything, the bottom line is very strong.
The Second Princess hated this gesture of hers the most, and her black and white eyes glared at her before she said to Xu Qi’an, “Don’t go with this palace yet!”
Xu Qi’an didn’t move, not looking at the Second Princess nor the Eldest Princess, “Your Highnesses, my humble servant is a night watchman, and my allegiance is to His Majesty.”
“Shut up!” The two princesses spoke out at the same time.
“….”
Xu Qi’an saw that the two royal daughters were so conflicted, not unilaterally, the framed Second Princess liked to pick fights, and the strong and domineering Eldest Princess welcomed all challenges.
He’s just a sandwiched, humble little lickspittle.
It’s like two millennials grabbing a toy and then letting the toy choose who to follow.
Meeting the gazes of the two princesses, Xu Qi’an exhaled a breath and looked toward Lin’an, “Forgive me, Second Princess, my humble servant still has official business to discuss with the Eldest Princess.”
The words were said euphemistically, but in fact, the attitude had already been given, he chose the Rapunzel.
The Second Princess suddenly bit her lip, her peach blossom eyes flickering with watery light as she looked deeply at Xu Qi’an and twisted her head away.
She’d lost again, disgraced herself once more in front of Wyvern as her opponent sat tall and had a small gong chipped in her face.
The high-minded Princess Lin’an had never been so aggrieved or frustrated.
She left without a word.
Xu Qi’an turned a blind eye to the Second Princess’s departure, exchanging a few words with the Eldest Princess in a calm tone before suddenly touching his chest as if he had remembered something and laughed helplessly:
“Aiya, the jade pendant hasn’t been returned to the Second Princess yet, then humble servant will leave first?”
Rapunzel’s voice was pleasing to the ear as she let out a “hmmm” in a good mood.
Xu Qi’an left the elegant garden slowly and methodically, catching the guards at the door and saying, “Where did the second princess go?”
The guard pointed him in a direction.
Xu Qi’an was like a wild dog off the leash, quickly chasing after her, and a few minutes later, he saw the fiery red figure of the Second Princess, leading two palace maids, walking briskly, her fragrant shoulders vaguely trembling.
“Second Princess, please stay.” Xu Qi’an shouted as he chased after her.
Princess Lin An heard it and ignored it, instead she walked faster, her small waist twisting and twisting, her skirt flying.
Xu Qi’an quickly caught up, stopped in front of Princess Lin’an, before she could speak, first a froth: “Your Highness cried?”
The heart is too weak to bear it ….
Princess Lin’an immediately turned her head away, giving him a beautiful sideways look, and coldly said, “Dog slave, what are you following this palace for, do you want to plot against it.”
Her eyes were red and swollen, and her snow-white cheeks still retained some tear marks, having clearly cried in aggravation just now.
However, instead, it set off those peach blossom eyes more and more charming.
When Xu Qi’an saw that Princess Lin’an didn’t leave and didn’t call out to anyone, he was delighted and felt that he could still be salvaged, and solemnly said:
“My humble servant is loyal to His Highness and has no second thoughts.”
Princess Lin’an jerked her head around and sneered, “Xu Qi’an, do you think this palace is a good tease?”
This loyal dog of Huaiqing, who is two-faced and even wants to have his feet in two boats, is simply detestable.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he writes good poems and has Huaiqing’s fancy, he wouldn’t bother with this kind of smelly man.
Princess Lin’an’s opinion of Xu Qi’an dropped to the bottom.
“Perhaps, in the eyes of the Second Princess, my humble servant is a shameless man who is swaying from side to side.” Xu Qi’an sighed:
“I can’t refute it, this jade pendant please princess take it back, such a good jade pendant, don’t follow me to the funeral.”
The Second Princess already hated Xu Qi’an and was about to take back her jade pendant when she heard the last sentence and froze, “What did you say?”
Xu Qi’an did not answer, lowered his head and rubbed the jade pendant, saying, “The second princess is generous, there has never been any great man willing to bestow his personal waist jade to me, I am touched by this, the second princess treats people with sincerity, and I am not a person who doesn’t know how to be good or bad.”
He sighed despondently and re-passed the jade pendant over, “Perhaps I am not destined to be with the Second Princess, please take it back.”
The second princess was slightly moved, but did not forgive him, after all, as Emperor Yuan Jing’s favorite princess, she had heard a lot of flattery.
It’s just that this man’s eyes were quite sincere and his tone was also sincere, the second princess was willing to listen to his explanation again, saying:
“What did you mean earlier about being buried with them?”
Xu Qi An smiled bitterly, “I originally thought that the Second Princess should have checked my ….”
This is really not …. Princess Lin’an was vain for a moment, then remembered something, surprised, “The crime of waifu?”
Lin An was also present when Huai Qing recommended him that day.
I heard Huaiqing say that he was sentenced to waist beheading because of the knife beheading of his superiors …. Princess Lin’an pursed her red lips, took the opportunity to wipe away the tearstains in the corner of her eyes, her tone turned slightly softer, but her little temper was still there, humming, “What does this have to do with Huaiqing?”
“The Eldest Princess is very curious about the Sangpo case and wishes to keep abreast of the latest case, and she said that as long as I report regularly, she promised that when the case is over, she can plead with His Majesty on my behalf, regardless of whether or not I can take the blame for my crimes.” Xu Qi’an gazed sincerely at the Second Princess:
“My humble servant then thought that the Second Princess treated me sincerely, but I am a sinner, ah, unable to repay the Second Princess’s appreciation of her favor, so I wanted to promise the Eldest Princess that after I was freed from my crime, I would then serve Your Highness with the service of a dog and horse.”
If sincerity could be quantified, the sincerity in Xu Qi’an’s eyes was like an ocean tide, softening the second princess’s heart considerably.
She said angrily, “Why didn’t you speak with me? Father favors me the most, so wouldn’t it be more prudent for me to plead on your behalf than Huaiqing.”
When he finished speaking, he saw violent mood swings appear on Xu Qi’an’s face, seemingly moved and shocked.
Then, this small gong’s trembling voice was heard, “Your Highness …. is willing to plead with His Majesty for me, a gong I just met?!”
It turned out that he felt that he would not help, so he took Huaiqing as a life-saving straw …. Princess Lin’an was angry and funny, in fact, just now it was just a word of anger, but the words rushed to this point, she was a little bit hard to ride the tiger, nodded her head:
“Naturally! This palace never treats its own people poorly.”
Xu Qi’an gazed at her for a long time, clasped his fists, and said in a deep voice, “Your Highness, my humble servant only wants to buy a piece of land now.”
Lin An didn’t understand and said in dismay, “Buy land?”
Xu Qi’an solemnly said, “Its name is Deadly Heart!”
Princess Lin An froze, slightly touched, this was something she hadn’t heard before.
All of a sudden, the loathing for Xu Qi’an dissipated, and if before he was thinking of competing with Huaiqing for toys, now he genuinely felt that it was not bad to have such a subordinate.
But remembering that this little gong had just made herself cry with anger, she grunted and cursed in a soft tone, “Dog slave!”
…. Done!
Xu Qi’an breathed a sigh of relief in her heart as if she was relieved.
When it comes to this kind of either/or situation, never think about solving the problem, but think about how to solve the person who created the problem.
The core element: divide them, one by one.
The Rapunzel is a woman with a strong and domineering personality and is intelligent, so it is important to favor her and give her face in more public situations.
The second princess is barbaric and capricious, both as a sufferer and a framed, provocative and troublesome demonic jian goods. But she is shallow, is a spoiled princess, a lot of small nature, but easy to coax.
With your skillful tongue, you can turn her into a woman who needs sweet words.
Based on the different personalities of the two princesses, Xu Qi’an, who was in the Cultivation Ground, quickly thought of a perfect response.
Not only did it turn out to be a disaster, but it also got the second princess to agree to intercede on his behalf and buy a business insurance policy for the future.
And it didn’t cost a dime.
Xu Qi’an carefully took the jade pendant back into his arms in front of the Second Princess, as if it wasn’t a jade pendant, but a treasure.
The Second Princess’ eyes immediately softened a lot.
“Then, humble servant will leave first?” Xu Qi’an intended to slip away.
“What’s the hurry!” Princess Lin’an glared at him, “You are the subordinate of this palace, and this palace still has to dispatch you.”
She had pried Wyvern’s corner, so of course she had to show all her other siblings, so that she could save face and make Wyvern lose face.
“Your Highness, please command.” Xu Qi’an said helplessly.
The carefree Second Princess realized that she had nothing to ask him to do, cocked her head, and said, “Well, today’s weather is nice, and without that nuisance Huaiqing, this palace is going to go and play with Spirit Dragon. If you follow this palace, this palace will not be serving the guards.”
….
Emperor Yuan Jing stood at the edge of the high platform, scrutinizing the Spirit Dragon sprawled on the bank and meeting those black button eyes.
“What’s wrong with you? Lin An has been playing with you since she was a child, why did you lift her off the water for no reason the day before yesterday.” Emperor Yuan Jing reprimanded Ling Long.
Spirit dragon this ancient beast, eat purple gas and born, and the demon race is not in the same column, if you have to find a “kindred spirit”, that is the same as the ancient beast of the compulsion God.
Spirit dragons are extremely few in number and have a long lifespan, and have traditionally existed as companion divine beasts of the royal family.
Whether it was Da Bong or the former dynasty, the palace kept this exotic beast.
“Sneeze…”
The Spirit Dragon snorted lazily and lay listlessly on the shore, ignoring Emperor Yuan Jing’s chiding.
The black button-like eyes looked down at Emperor Yuan Jing.
Are you riding or not?
The Prince next to him observed the Spirit Dragon, he remembered that the Spirit Dragon was also lying on the shore like this at that time, but it seemed to be even more respectful and trembling than now?
At that time, he was too far away to see the expression of the Spirit Dragon’s demeanor, and only had a rough impression, so the Crown Prince wasn’t sure.
Spirit dragons were the water mounts of successive emperors, and it is rumored that in ancient times, the domains of the demon race and the human race were not as distinct as they are now, and were in a relatively mixed state.
So from time to time, the human race would be devoured by the demon race, or the demon race would encounter the human race hunting them.
Humans were not good at water, and there was nothing they could do against the demons in the river. Only the Human Emperor could easily enter the water to fight the demons.
Relying on the Spirit Dragon, an amphibious beast.
To this day, the Emperor of the Great Bong certainly does not need to enter the water to fight the demons, and the water mounts become ornamental creatures.
Since his cultivation, Emperor Yuan Jing hadn’t visited the Spirit Dragon for many years and couldn’t help but remember the scenery of when he ascended the throne and rode the Spirit Dragon on a parade in the capital river.
“I haven’t been close to you for many years, I guess you’re lonely too.” Emperor Yuan Jing sighed with emotion, lightly leaping onto the armor of the Spirit Dragon’s backbone and holding the horns with both hands.
The Spirit Dragon let out a long, joyful whistle, its limbs paddling and its body twisting lightly as it carried Emperor Yuan Jing around the lake.
…. How envious! The Crown Prince looked at the scene and imagined himself riding a spirit dragon one day in the future, with his royal sons and daughters standing on the shore, eagerly watching.
Just then, the Spirit Dragon that was happily swimming in the lake suddenly roared, and as if it had been stimulated in some way, it raised its head high, and while letting out a deafening roar, it shook its neck and threw Emperor Yuan Jing out.
