Chapter 729

The next day, Nalan night entered the palace early in the morning.

Luo qingluan didn't waste time. She took Dai Yue and Xu Wei to the house where Xiao Yuqi lived temporarily.

I didn't expect Luo qingluan to visit in person. Xiao Yuqi was not at home, but the housekeeper had been ordered to inform him immediately as long as Princess Chu came, but Xiao Yuqi came back in half an hour.

"I'm really sorry. I didn't expect Princess Chu to come back and salute today." Xiao Yuqi smiled and apologized. He asked people to serve tea and sit down. He looked dusty and tired. At last, he was in good spirit.

"Look at Prince Xiao. His feet are still stained with mud. It seems that there is something serious?" Luo qingluan's eyes fell on his feet, and he was acutely aware of this.

"Where, I just went to the canal in the west of the city to see the shipping situation in the capital of Western Chu. There were so many people there that I didn't notice for a moment." Xiao Yuqi smiled, took a sip of tea and slowly said.

When he finished, Luo qingluan knew that Xiao Yuqi had been busy and had little spare time.

When he came to the Western Chu from Dongwan, he said he congratulated the Western Chu on its strength, but Dongwan naturally still had the idea of learning from scriptures and even spied on something. Luo qingluan listened quietly, only looking at what Xiao Yuqi said was clear and correct, with emotion and seriousness, and some envy.

"It turned out that Prince Xiao came to observe and study. He didn't even have time to play. It's really admirable." Luo qingluan smiled.

"Where, a rare opportunity, the palace naturally wants to grasp."

Xiao Yuqi looked serious, Smiling like spring breeze: "I'm friends with the princess of Chu. I don't hide it from the princess of Chu. I'll tell you something straight. Among the four countries, Dongwan forces have always been the first and won't let it go, but western Chu is the later. Although there are the war achievements of the king of Chu, Western Chu wouldn't be so rich and powerful without the efforts of his majesty and his subjects."

"Therefore, the Palace should naturally study hard. You can see anything you can learn from. Take the canal in the west of the city. According to the understanding of the palace, it was built by his majesty when the Western Chu Dynasty was founded. The whole venue is more than 380 miles, which not only nourishes the people along the way, but also Commerce..."

Listening to Xiao Yuqi's eloquence, Luo qingluan felt that the man in front of him was not simple.

Knowing that she is the princess of Xichu, although Xichu and Dongwan live in peace at present, who knows that they will not be enemies in the future? But he still didn't hide anything. He openly said in front of her that he wanted to learn and make progress, which made her see his ambition and future prospects.

He didn't hide with her, so naturally he didn't take Nalan night as his opponent.

Although this seems a little deliberate, showing that he has no selfishness and is open-minded, another idea is that other people don't dare to say such words except Xiao Yuqi. It can be seen that he really thinks so. At least he doesn't want to be an enemy with Xichu now. As long as the two countries maintain a delicate balance, maybe peace can last forever.

Since Xiao Yuqi thought so, how could he collude with Nangong Waner to steal the treasures of North Vietnam?

After discussing with Xiao Yuqi for a while, Luo qingluan didn't express his own views, but he should say a few words and say some of his own views at the critical time, but it was enough to make Xiao Yuqi marvel and become a confidant.

"If it weren't for the fact that Princess Chu was a woman, the palace was also worried that the king of Chu was unhappy. The palace really wanted to marry Princess Chu." Xiao Yuqi has never talked so freely. As a prince, he has been accompanied by countless Taifu ministers since childhood. But it's rare that most of his thoughts can be consistent with his words when he speaks freely like today.

In a moment of excitement, he was a little forgetful and couldn't help saying these words.

Luo qingluan smiled softly: "Prince Xiao flattered me, but it's just my humble opinions. Whether I can succeed or not still needs time to verify. Even if I say more, after all... Practice is the only standard to test the truth, and Prince Xiao doesn't have to be completely serious."

But he was modest, but he didn't expect Xiao Yuqi to flash in his pupils when he heard this.

"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth?" He couldn't help clapping his hands, and the whole person was excited: "wonderful, wonderful! Why does Princess Chu casually say every word with pearls? This palace really admires it. Now the palace understands why the king of Chu really treats Princess Chu. Only a woman like you can be worthy of the king of Chu."

"Prince Xiao joked. What doesn't deserve it? The king of Chu and I treat each other sincerely. He is good to me and I am good to him. These are mutual."

Looking back on the past, Luo qingluan was very moved.

Xiao Yuqi only sees the present, but he doesn't know that before, if it wasn't a coincidence, if it wasn't really fate, plus she doesn't belong to the soul of the world, special temperament, ideas and behaviors, she's afraid of this time and space. It's really difficult to find a woman who Nalan night really treats.

He is so demanding

In other words, he should go to the place in her previous life, where there are women who do not depend on men. They are independent and can do better than men. There are many smart and beautiful people. I'm afraid it's not her turn.

"It's conceivable that Princess Chu's smile is really happy. Congratulations." Xiao Yuqi didn't know that Luo qingluan thought of her previous life. This is her secret. No one knows.

His eyes were clear, but Luo qingluan looked up at him with a smile: "last time in Dongwan and his party, I also had a good talk with Prince Xiao. Today, I feel that Prince Xiao's bearing and knowledge are difficult for ordinary people, but I have a question in my heart. I don't know how to speak?"

It was rare to see Luo qingluan like this. Xiao Yuqi said with a light smile: "the princess has something to say. I don't know what's difficult?"

"It has something to do with the third prince Xiao."

"Oh?" Xiao Yuqi immediately looked positive: "but the third brother's hidden disease... Isn't it difficult to cure?"

He went to see Luo qingluan the day before yesterday. Xiao Tianci asked people to buy medicinal materials when he came back. He was relieved. He thought that since Luo qingluan promised to do it, it would not be a big problem. Later, Xiao Tianci asked him about the cold ice silkworm and said it was needed for treatment. Although Xiao Yuqi knew the importance of the cold ice silkworm, it was nothing as long as he could cure his hidden disease.

But now he was worried when Luo qingluan asked.

"Hidden diseases are one thing, but not what I want to say."

Staring at Xiao Yu and Qi Junlang's face, Luo qingluan seemed to want to see his every expression, whether there was concealment or lie. "I want to ask Prince Xiao. Recently, the third prince Xiao found several jewelers to sell jewelry and raise silver. Do you know?"

"The third brother actually sold jewelry?" Xiao Yuqi seemed surprised. "The palace really didn't know. If it weren't for Princess Chu, the palace wouldn't know that the third brother had done such a ridiculous thing."

When he came to the Western Chu this time, Xiao Yuqi naturally knew what he had brought with him. Apart from the congratulatory gifts to the Western Chu emperor, there would be no shortage of gold and silver. Even if he didn't want Xiao Tianci to spend recklessly, as the prince, he wouldn't be short of money to sell jewelry.

What's more, as a man, where did Xiao Tianci get the jewelry?

"If the third brother sells one and a half pieces of jewelry, I don't want to let the princess of Chu ask the palace," Xiao Tianci looked at Luo qingluan with doubts. "I don't know how the princess of Chu knew about it. Where did he get the jewelry, and did he do anything absurd?"

"It's not a piece and a half, but... 500000 liang of jewelry!"

Luo qingluan said word by word: "I want to ask if Prince Xiao knows the origin of the 500000 Liang jewelry of Prince Xiao."

When Xiao Yuqi heard about the bastard thing Xiao Tianci did last night, he immediately patted the table and was very angry: "this bastard did such a thing! I thought he was treating hidden diseases recently. He should be collecting medicinal materials and cultivating himself. I didn't expect him to blackmail!"

The Grand Prince has done something to blackmail civilians and rich businessmen, and the amount is huge, which is simply irritating. Moreover, Xiao Tianci also detained three people and threatened them with their lives. If such a thing is spread, it will definitely shame the Dongwan royal family.

Xiao Yuqi apologized to Luo qingluan with a cold look on his face: "thanks to Princess Chu, this bastard has done such a shameful thing. The palace will teach him a good lesson! Come..."

"Wait!"

The complaint was not intended. Luo qingluan just wanted to know whether Xiao Yuqi was involved in this matter, so he came to the door directly to try. After finding it impossible, she said it tactfully and didn't want to scare the snake: "since this matter has nothing to do with Prince Xiao, I'm relieved. As for Prince Xiao, we still need to make a good investigation to see what he wants."

With just such a sentence, Xiao Yuqi understood the real purpose of Luo qingluan.

He almost broke out in a cold sweat.

If Luo qingluan didn't come to the door to ask and tell the truth, if he directly told the Western Chu emperor about it, he would be afraid that small things would make a big difference, and even affect Xiao Tianci's reputation. What's more, it's the time for Dongwan and Xichu to marry. In case of any mistakes, I'm afraid my father will be angry again.

"Anyway, I would like to thank Princess Chu. Fortunately, it hasn't made a big deal. I will supervise my third brother well..."

"It's too late, Prince Xiao..."

Suddenly, Luo qingluan looked at Xiao Yuqi with a dignified look on his face: "do you know where the jewelry sold by the third prince Xiao came from? And what happened to this batch of jewelry?"

Looking at Luo qingluan's face, Xiao Yuqi inexplicably had an ominous premonition.

He's not a joker. He's always calm and smart. Luo qingluan told him that. Obviously, he's not scaring him. Xiao Yuqi suddenly said in a deep voice, "what's the matter, Princess Chu, please."

"I've always regarded Prince Xiao as a friend, so I'm going to talk about it in person today. If the king of Chu came today, I'm afraid now... It's not that I want to scare anyone, but this batch of jewelry in the hands of Prince Xiao's third prince was transported from Beijun to the capital of Western Chu some time ago, but it was stolen from the former North Vietnamese Royal treasures halfway!"

Xiao Tianci stood up in shock: "what did you say?"

North Vietnamese Royal treasures?!
