377. Xiao Xing’er, someone wants to kill your mother, you still laugh(1/2)
As night fell, Qin Zheng left the inn and got on the carriage. He stood at the entrance of the inn. He watched the carriage head towards the city lord's mansion, shook his head slightly, sighed, withdrew his gaze, turned around and went back.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince." 6 Li knocked on the door.
"Come in." Ye Minghua's voice came from the room.
6 When he pushed the door open, he saw Ye Minghua sitting there as usual, with an empty tea cup in front of him.
"Is there anything wrong?" Ye Minghua looked at 6 Li and asked.
"What are the plans for the Crown Prince?" 6 Li looked at Ye Minghua and asked. 6 Li was Ye Zhao's confidant, so what Ye Minghua encountered after coming to the Divine Soldier City was not hidden from 6 Li. 6 Li already knew the biggest secret of the Divine Soldier City, that is, the husband of the Lord Ajiu City is the missing Prince Ming Xiu of the Heavenly Ming Kingdom.
This will lead to great changes in the next cooperation between Divine Soldier City and Xuanye Kingdom. Xuanye Kingdom must consider the possibility that Divine Soldier City and Tianming Kingdom will unite in the future. The cooperation between Xuanye Kingdom and the Divine Soldier City may become meaningless, and may even be secretly plotted by Divine Soldier City. After all, Divine Soldier City is no longer just a city. If Ming Cultivator returns to Tianming Kingdom, then Divine Soldier City and Tianming Kingdom will be one.
Ye Minghua laughed at himself: "The people of Shenbing City dare to admit their relationship with the royal family of Tianming Kingdom so clearly, which means that cooperation with Xuanye Kingdom is unnecessary."
"Since Prince Ming has not returned to the Kingdom of Heaven and Nether, it means they do not want to reveal their identity for the time being. Aren't they afraid that we will reveal this secret?" 6 Li frowned.
Ye Minghua sighed: "Of course they are not afraid, what's there to be afraid of? So what if they leak it out? Let the people of the world know that Ming Xiu is in the Divine Weapon City, Ming Yufeng is afraid that he will die of pleasure. As for Qing Yu, she kept saying that Ming Xiu is her grandson. She wanted Baili Qing to marry Ming Xiu, and her attitude towards Ming Xiu was elusive. Baili Xun's Qisha City originally seemed very strong, but after the rise of the Divine Weapon City, Qisha City was no longer in its current state. Only our Xuanye Kingdom, how can we treat the Divine Weapon City?"
"I don't know where Ming Xiu has gone now?" 6 Li said.
"Is it important? The city lord of this Divine Weapon City is not even Ming Xiu, but his wife." Ye Minghua laughed at himself, "Before Ming Xiu returns, everyone in Tianyuan Da 6 knows that there is still a big 6 existence. They all think that there is a barren and backward there, and the people over there are low strength, but then look at that Ajiu, you will know how outrageous we are. I can understand why Ming Xiu refused to marry Baili Qing. With a wife like Ajiu, no man looks down on Baili Qing."
6 Li nodded slightly: "The Lord of Ajiu City is indeed extremely strong, with a group of minds and many experts around him."
"The brother of Ming Xiu, Qin Yue, they must have no blood relationship, but that person's strength is also unfathomable. The most terrifying thing is that whether it is Ming Xiu, Ajiu, or Qin Yue, they are not only very skilled in martial arts, nor are they just superb. They have too many abilities. The three of them have reached the pinnacle of the medical skills and poison skills. Ajiu is also a descendant of the Cang clan, a weapon design genius, and Mo Qingchen's abilities are much stronger than those of the ministers of our Xuanye Kingdom, let alone those old guys Shangguan Min, and they have no place to use their skills. They have begun to enjoy Sun An's old age." Ye Minghua's tone was quite a bit sighing, "Justice and Ming Xiu's adopted son, at a young age, are probably stronger than you."
6 Li nodded: "This Divine Weapon City is indeed a hidden dragon and a creeping tiger."
"If the Divine Soldier City has nothing to do with the Ming royal family, I must cooperate with them no matter what. Xuanye Kingdom is closest to the Divine Soldier City, and we have a natural geographical advantage." Ye Minghua said with regret, "But now, things have become much more complicated. I cannot make a decision without authorization. I need to go back and ask my father for instructions. Let all of us prepare. I will set off to return to China tomorrow morning. You will continue to stay here. Without the instructions from my father or my palace, don't do anything."
"Yes." 6 Li looked a little uncertain and said to Ye Minghua, "Watching me, the people in Shenbing City do not seem to want to recognize relatives from the royal family of Tianming Kingdom."
Ye Minghua shook his head: "The relationship between Ming Xiu and the royal family of Ming clan is not that simple. He will not really go back to be the son Ming Yufeng wants. Because he has enough strength, he has the willful capital. His surname is Ming. As long as he wants it, Tianming Kingdom is his."
"I understand. Will the Crown Prince say goodbye to Lord Ajiu?" 6 Li asked Ye Minghua.
"I haven't seen Ajiu when I came to this palace this time, and I have never seen the real Ming Cultivation. Now the matter of the Divine Soldier City is that Mr. Qin is in charge of it. I still can't believe that he was pretending to be Ming Cultivation in Qisha City. Now, thinking about Li Yue brought back a fake Ming Cultivation from afar, it's so stupid. Even Ming Yufeng was deceived, let alone outsiders. Tomorrow, you go to the city lord's mansion and inform them." Ye Minghua said.
"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." 6 Li nodded.
But on the other side, Qin Zheng arrived at the foot of Xuanming Mountain, got off the carriage, and politely refused Ye Minghua's kindness to escort her up the mountain, and walked towards the mountain alone.
Xuanming Mountain is the territory of the Lord’s Mansion of the Divine Weapon City. Outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission. There are guards at several entrances at the foot of the mountain, so it is usually very safe.
It’s already night, the breeze is cool on the summer night, and the fragrance of flowers and fruits wafts in the air.
Qin Zheng walked up, not fast, and frowned while thinking about something. As soon as she reached a corner, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of her, which scared her.
"Brother Ao? Why are you here?" Qin Zheng looked at Dugu Ao with a look of surprise.
"I'm worried about you, so I'm waiting for you to come back here." Dugu Ao grabbed Qin Zheng's hand with Weiliang.
Qin Zheng smiled slightly: "I'm fine." Years of waiting and expectation finally received a response. Dugu Ao, who has always been unfamiliar with expression, is trying hard to learn how to treat Qin Zheng well, and Qin Zheng can feel it.
"A Zheng, what did Ye Minghua tell you?" Dugu Ao pulled Qin Zheng up and asked inadvertently as he walked.
"It's nothing. We are friends, and he won't make things difficult for me." Qin Zheng said with a smile.
Dugu Ao frowned and asked again: "Do you seem to know him very well?"
Qin Zheng was stunned for a moment, and heard the unpredictable jealousy in Dugu Ao's words. She stopped and looked at Dugu Ao and asked, "Did you just followed me to the inn? Are you still eavesdropping outside?"
Dugu Ao nodded and admitted readily: "Well, I'm going."
"Don't you believe me?" Qin Zheng frowned and looked at Dugu Ao and asked.
"Of course not. I just don't believe in Ye Minghua, I'm afraid he will be unfavorable to you." Dugu Ao reached out and hugged Qin Zheng in his arms, and said in a low voice, "And I'm very unconfident. I used to be a bastard, He De could have you wait for me for so long, I'm afraid you don't want me."
Qin Zheng was amused and crying: "Brother Ao, don't think too much, I won't leave you."
"You swear." Dugu Ao said.
Qin Zheng nodded: "Okay, I swear."
"Let's get married." Dugu Ao looked at Qin Zheng with a bright look.
Qin Zheng's face turned slightly red: "This... I will find an opportunity to mention it to my parents..." When they get married, it mainly depends on the meaning of Rong Qian and Qingye. On Dugu Ao's side, Mu Yan had long said that she would not interfere with anything and let them go with the flow.
When the two returned to the city lord's mansion, Qin Zheng wanted to go to find Xiao Yuesheng and told Xiao Yuesheng that Ye Minghua had asked her and did not mention the cooperation between Xuan Yeguo and Shenbing City. She felt that the cooperation between the two parties might change, but when she went there, Xiao Yuesheng had already gone to bed with Qi Yuchan early, so she did not disturb her.
Early the next morning, Liu Li came to the city lord's mansion and said that Ye Minghua was leaving.
Mo Qingchen was a little surprised and hurriedly went to find Xiao Yuesheng.
Xiao Yuesheng was originally having breakfast with Qi Yuchan, but when he heard that Ye Minghua was leaving, he said calmly: "I understand."
"Just let him leave like this? What should I do next?" Mo Qingchen asked Xiao Yuesheng.
"Don't let him leave, should he be kept as a hostage?" Xiao Yuesheng gave Qi Yuchan good soup, handed it to Qi Yuchan, and looked at Mo Qingchen and said, "Since he knows where we came from, it is definitely not that simple to cooperate with us now, and it is not something that the prince can decide. If he wants to leave, it has nothing to do with Qin Zheng, and his next behavior will not be related to Qin Zheng. As for whether to cooperate or not, how to cooperate, he must go back and ask his father."
Mo Qingchen looked inexplicably: "I understand the truth, but what I don't understand is, do you and your master plan to continue to cooperate with Xuan Yeguo? Why did you choose to tell Ye Minghua the secret at this time?"
"In the original plan, we sincerely wanted to cooperate with Xuan Yeguo, but later because of Qin Zheng's affairs, the plan must be changed. Ye Minghua is very smart. Unless we keep hiding Qin Zheng and don't let him know, he can guess where we came from when he sees Qin Zheng." Xiao Yuesheng said with a faint expression, "It is not impossible to deceive him again, and it is not even difficult for us. But on the one hand, it is unnecessary. On the other hand, if we don't tell it now, there will only be more and more lies. When the truth in the future is revealed, the Ye royal family will really turn against us."
"Now, cooperation is probably difficult to achieve," Mo Qingchen said.
"The cooperation that Xuanye Kingdom wants is not those small businesses, but weapons." Xiao Yuesheng said, "In fact, it is a good thing if it fails. If it happens, we will strengthen the national strength of Xuanye Kingdom, but in the future Xing'er becomes the emperor of Tianming Kingdom and fights Xuanye Kingdom, wouldn't he cause trouble?"
"Why do I feel that you and your master have no clear plans for the future?" Mo Qingchen frowned.
Xiao Yuesheng nodded: "Where will we go in the future? One of the keys is whether Xing'er wants to return to Tianming Kingdom as the prince. If he wants to go back, how to go and when to go back, only he can decide on this matter, but he is not here now. We guard the Divine Soldier City and slowly accumulate strength. In this way, no matter what we want to do in the future, the chances of winning will be greater. It is beneficial to have a good relationship with Xuanye Kingdom, but even if Xuanye Kingdom cuts off contact with us, we will not be affected too much, because in the past six months, the Divine Soldier City has established a foothold and all aspects of business have also been on track. Now, the merchants of Tianyuan Great 6 Three Kingdoms are asking to do business with us. Even if the Xuanye Kingdom is cut off, it doesn't matter."
"What if Ye Minghua decides to continue to cooperate with us after returning to China to discuss with Ye Zhao?" Mo Qingchen asked Xiao Yuesheng.
"Cooperation is possible, and the initiative is in our hands." Xiao Yuesheng said, "It is not a bad thing to make a relatively credible ally within a limited and controllable range."
"It is also possible that Ye Zhao was annoyed, and then he used Rong's family to coerce us." Mo Qingchen frowned.
"This is a bad strategy that is not up to standard. Ye Zhao is very smart and can't use it." Xiao Yuesheng shook his head and said.
"Oh! Things suddenly became so complicated. Ye Minghua was leaving, and I didn't know what to say to him. In fact, our relationship was pretty good." Mo Qingchen sighed.
"Don't think so much. He probably doesn't know what to say to you now. Go and give him a gift. Just be a friend and say goodbye." Xiao Yuesheng said to Mo Qingchen.
"Okay, since you don't plan to come forward, I'll go and send it off." Mo Qingchen nodded and left.
Qi Yuchan asked Xiao Yuesheng: "Brother Yue'er, will we fight against Xuanye Kingdom?"
Xiao Yuesheng smiled and shook his head: "At least not for the time being. The Three Kingdoms are the largest, but the Divine Soldier City is independent on the sea. Although the area is small, it has a natural geographical advantage. It is difficult for us to fight others because there are too few people and no army. But it is also difficult for them to fight us because naval battles require ships and long-range weapons, but now the most powerful ships and weapons in Tianyuan Da 6 are in our hands."
"That's it, that's good." Qi Yuchan nodded slightly.
On the coast of the south city of Shenbing City, Yang Fan was ready to go to sea.
The weather was clear. Ye Minghua stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the majestic and solemn gate of the Divine Soldier City and the ships coming and going by the sea. He remembered that when he first came to Divine Soldier City, the walls of Divine Soldier City were still under construction. There were no outsiders in the city. There were in short supply of supplies in all aspects, far less prosperous and lively than now. The expansion of Divine Soldier City was too fast.
6 Li stood on the shore and heard the sound of horse hooves. He turned his head and looked at Ye Minghua, "Young Master Mo is here to send His Royal Highness to the Crown Prince."
Mo Qingchen rode his horse, rolled over and dismounted at the beach, flew up, boarded the ship of Xuanye Kingdom, and landed beside Ye Minghua.
With eyes facing each other, Mo Qingchen said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry about A Zheng's affairs. The last time Dugu went to Qingluan Kingdom to pick up A Zheng, you were still in the Divine Soldier City, but we didn't tell you."
"I'm really angry when I think about it!" Ye Minghua smiled bitterly, "At that time, I left the Divine Soldier City with joy and wanted to go back to get married. When I bid farewell to the Lord of Ajiu City, she also said that I wished me to marry my lover."
"Well, what my master said is not to wish you a happy wedding and a noble son early, so it is not considered lying to you. She wishes you to marry your sweetheart. The main reason why you failed to marry is that the person in A Zheng's heart is not you, not because of our interference. If A Zheng likes you, my master will help you marry her. Even if Dugu didn't go to pick A Zheng up at that time, A Zheng himself had already found Yang Xuan, the owner of the Dark Tower, and used a swing pill to make a deal. He agreed with Yang Xuan, and asked the people from the Dark Tower to escort their family and escape from Fengming City in secret." Mo Qingchen said to Ye Minghua.
Ye Minghua laughed when he heard this: "It's something she can do. Although she didn't say it, I kept wondering where I am worse than your Dugu Ao. When I woke up early this morning, I suddenly realized something. Even if there was no Dugu Ao, even if Rong Zheng no longer likes Dugu Ao, she probably wouldn't choose to marry me, because how could a proud woman like her endure having other women in this palace?"
"Prince Ye, ask you a question. If A Zheng is willing to marry you now, the condition is that you can only have her as a woman in the future. Can you do it?" Mo Qingchen looked at Ye Minghua and asked seriously.
Ye Minghua shook his head and laughed: "I really want it, but I can't. I admit that she is the girl I like the most so far in my life and the only princess I like. But none of us can go back to the past. Putting aside my identity and royal rules, I already had other women when I met her, and they gave birth to children for me. There is nothing wrong with it. If I abandoned them for Rong Zheng, no matter what others think, Rong Zheng would probably be the first to look down on me, because I can't even do the most basic responsibility of a man, so how can I talk about anything else?"
Mo Qingchen patted Ye Minghua on the shoulder and said nothing.
Ye Minghua smiled, "Rong Zheng said I am a good person, but I am not. I am the prince of a country, and I like to be the prince. I want to inherit the throne in the future, so I cannot act willful and recklessly when I do anything. Since I was a child, I have learned to be hypocritical, used to smirking, and believe in the supremacy of interests. Others say I am so sophisticated and sophisticated. In fact, I am a man who is so sophisticated and sophisticated. In my heart, I like Shenbang City very much and admire you very much, but if we stand on both sides of the hostile side in the future for the sake of Xuanye Kingdom, I will not be polite to you."
"Yes." Mo Qingchen nodded, "Understand, don't worry, we won't be polite to you."
"Are we friends?" Ye Minghua looked at Mo Qingchen and asked.
Mo Qingchen nodded without hesitation: "Of course."
"You're welcome friend, I'll say goodbye." Ye Minghua said to Mo Qingchen with a smile.
"Take care." Mo Qingchen finished speaking and flew out of the boat.
Ye Minghua turned around, the smile on his face had disappeared, and he was slightly tired between his eyebrows and said, "Let's go."
The ship drove away and soon left the south bank of Shenbing City and headed towards the direction of Frost Leaf City.
In the inn, Ming Ming, who thought Li Yue was dead, was in a good mood these days. He had just finished his breakfast when he received a report that the Prince of Xuanye had left the Divine Soldier City.
Ming Ming was stunned: "Ye Minghua left? When?"
"Regarding the third prince, just now, Prince Ye took away all the people he brought." The subordinate said respectfully.
Ming Ming thought to himself: "Is anyone going to see him off in the Lord of the Divine Soldier City?"
"The Lord of the Divine Soldier City and the Young Master Qin did not show up, only Mr. Mo went to see him off." said the subordinate.
"I understand, go back." Ming Ming waved his hand.
Ming Ming was the only one left in the room. His lips curled slightly and his voice laughed in a low voice. At the banquet a few days ago, he consciously gained the upper hand. At the end of the banquet, Xiao Yuesheng asked Ye Minghua to leave a separate conversation. Ming Ming was worried that Shenbing City would prefer to cooperate with the royal family of Xuanye Kingdom. Ming Ming said at that time that he wanted to find Mo Qingchen and Beitang Lingsu, but the two people did not see him using the excuse of being busy. He looked for them again in the past two days, but they still avoided him.
