Chapter 491 - 491: The Skill From the Coffin Cover (3)
After all, this was a matter of the royal family’s face. If word got out, it would cause criticism.
“Your Majesty…The ninth princess is of a good age.” Eunuch Wei thought for a moment and asked tentatively, “”Let these young people try it themselves?
“Nonsense!” The Chu Emperor slammed the table and said,” I overthrew the Great Wind because I don’t like the old customs of the Great Wind. My daughter is not for marriage.””
Eunuch Wei hurriedly replied, afraid that he would make the Chu Emperor unhappy.
Only then did the Chu Emperor relax slightly. In the end, the atmosphere changed.”But young people, these things are up to them. It’s not impossible for them to like each other.”
Eunuch Wei was speechless.
“In short, you should settle this matter first.”the Chu Emperor said.
Eunuch Wei grunted. Since he still had things to do, he would not stay any longer. After taking his leave, he walked out of the door and closed the door, leaving the royal study.
After Eunuch Wei left, Emperor Chu leaned back in his chair and looked at the poem he had just written. No one knew what he was thinking.
On the other side, at the Ninth Princess ‘place.
Qing Xue was sitting on a chair, staring blankly at the moonlight outside the window.
“Xue, the princess seems to have the intention to communicate with Xu Bai today.”Another maid, Qing Mei, said.
When Qing Xue heard the voice, she snapped out of her daze and replied with a simple ‘oh’.
Qing Mei was also a beautiful woman. Seeing that Qing Xue was not in high spirits, she walked up to her and asked, “Xue, I’ve never seen you speak so highly of a young talent. What kind of person is he to be praised by you and recommended to the Ninth Princess?”
Qing Xue was stunned. Her initial dazed state instantly returned. She seemed to have thought of something and suddenly became interested.
“You mean Xu Bai? How should I put it? He’s a very strange person. He does things ruthlessly, but sometimes he’s very principled.”
Principles? What principles?” Qing Mei was a little surprised.
Qing Xue thought for a moment and seemed to have thought of something. She said in a very serious tone,”Doing business.”
Qing Mei was stunned on the spot.
“In short, he’s a very interesting person.”As Qing Xue spoke, the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled up into a smile.
Qing Mei scratched her head when she saw Qing Xue’s expression.””But ever since His Majesty lifted the ban, the princess has taken in many guests. Some of them are already at the Second Stage Realm. I wonder if they will take a fancy to Xu Bai.”
“Rank-2?” Qing Xue obviously knew this. She shook her head and said,””He definitely won’t stop at Rank-2.”
His words were filled with confidence.
Qing Mei had never seen such an expression on Qing Xue’s face. It was as if she trusted Xu Bai.
“Tell me more about him,” she said as she pulled Qing Xue.” “Alright then.” Qing Xue had no choice but to continue.
The two women kept whispering in the dark.
In another place in the Imperial Palace.
“All of you, get out of my way. I want to see the sixth prince. I’m one of the sixth prince’s confidants.”Zhou Qing stood outside a room with a cold expression.
“One of his confidants?”
The person who stopped him looked ordinary, but his aura was very powerful. After hearing this, he revealed a disdainful expression.
“Ever since you came back, you’ve only advanced to the Sixth Stage.”
“His Highness the Sixth Prince has already found so many things for you, but you are still useless. Now that His Highness has received many experts, are you worthy of being called a trusted aide?”
“If you want to see His Highness, you can wait for a while. If His Highness has something to discuss, do you understand?”
Zhou Qing’s expression turned even colder.
At this moment, he really wanted to barge in, but he felt that if he did, it would definitely be inappropriate. After thinking for a long time, he prepared to wait outside.
After about two hours, the conversation in the room gradually stopped. The door opened, and Prince Six and a middle-aged man walked out.
“Since Your Highness thinks highly of me, I will be Your Highness’s guest from now on.”The middle-aged man laughed.
“You’re welcome. With a Level Two expert like you, I naturally have nothing to worry about. “The Sixth Prince also laughed heroically.
At this moment, he saw Zhou Qing beside him and could not help but be stunned. As if he had thought of something, he said to the middle-aged man beside him,
“I still have some things to do here. I’ll hold a welcoming banquet for you another day.”
The middle-aged man seemed to have realized it too. He did not disturb them and left.
Prince Six looked at Zhou Qing and said with a headache,””Zhou Qing, are you speaking up for Xu Bai again?
In fact, among the many royal families, the Sixth Prince was the one who cared the most about old relationships.
Even if the Emperor had lifted the ban, the Sixth Prince was still very concerned about these old confidants. For example, the Sixth Prince had invested a lot in Zhou Qing being able to advance to Rank-6.
” Your Highness,” Zhou Qing cupped his fists and said,” Xu Bai will arrive in the capital very soon. We can’t let anyone else get there before him. ‘”‘
Prince Six sighed.” Alright, I understand. I’ll talk to him about it when the time comes. This is the cultivation method I found for you recently. Work hard to improve yourself. Don’t think so much.””
A cultivation technique was handed to Zhou Qing, but he was stunned.
He knew that the Sixth Prince was just brushing him off, but looking at the cultivation technique in front of him, he understood that the Sixth Prince was indeed thinking for his old confidants. After all, he was still working hard to improve their strength..
