"Why must Miss Xie's words be so overbearing? This is not good for you, nor for anyone. " Ye Ningyu advised tactfully.

"If you don't like it, just leave by yourself with the door." Xie Qingrong pointed to the direction of the main entrance of Prince Chen's Mansion and ordered Ye Ningyu and Xuanyuan Jing to leave.

Ye Ningyu's gentle camouflage instantly had a crack, it was stiff, and she was at a loss about what to do.

Xuanyuan Chen came out to smooth things over, "Second brother and royal sister-in-law probably haven't eaten lunch yet, why don't we have lunch together?"

Xuanyuan Jing saw that Xuanyuan Chen gave him a way out, and immediately went back down the slope, "Coincidentally, this king is a little hungry, so I thank Third Brother for the hospitality. Ning Yu, come to me. "

Ye Ningyu obediently stood beside Xuanyuan Jing, allowing Xuanyuan Jing to hold his hand and walk towards the dining table.

Xie Qingrong was somewhat puzzled, as she looked at Xuanyuan Chen with doubt.

What are you doing?

Xuanyuan Chen gave Xie Qingrong a comforting look and then took Xie Qingrong's hand to the dining table.

Their dining etiquette was very pleasing to the eyes, as if using the food had become an artistic act. It was smooth and elegant.

Xuanyuan Chen placed the chopsticks on the table, and went straight to the point: "Since second brother is here today, I believe it is not just to send his regards right?"

Hearing that, Xuanyuan Jing laughed: "Then what is Third Brother thinking of that purpose does this duke have in coming today?"

Xie Qingrong let out a cold laugh in her heart. What a good move to retreat in order to advance;

Xuanyuan Chen curled his lips and said: "This king is not Second Brother's stomach, how would I know what Second Brother is thinking? Since second brother has no other purpose, then please leave. "

With that, he instructed the Butler Meng: "Old Meng, send this guest off."

He stood up and prepared to leave.

A trace of hostility flashed between Xuanyuan Jing's brows, and his fingers fiercely twisted, "Third Brother, there is no need to do this. Since third brother didn't want to guess, then second brother should speak. Does third brother really think it is wise to use illness as a reason to head to Yue Country? "

"Oh?" Xuanyuan Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Third brother must have heard of the mantis stalking the cicada and the cicada catching the cicada. The mantis stalking the cicada. If this king spread the news of Third Brother going to the Yue Country, I wonder how others would view Third Brother, how those old subjects would treat Third Brother, and how royal father would treat Third Brother? "

Xuanyuan Jing leaned close to Xuanyuan Chen's ear and whispered softly. It seemed to be a mumble between lovers, but it carried an endless threat.

Facing Xuanyuan Jing's danger, Xuanyuan Chen did not even bat an eyelid as he remained as calm and collected as ever.

"You wouldn't do that."

"How do you know I won't?" Xuanyuan Jing asked.

He was actually a little curious, where exactly did Xuanyuan Chen get his confidence from, to be so confident that he actually had such a great opportunity to frame Xuanyuan Chen?

"If you were to use this opportunity to frame This King, you wouldn't be standing here and threatening This King right now." Xuanyuan Chen said indifferently.

"Third brother is really intelligent, but compared to eldest brother, he is still slightly inferior." Xuanyuan Jing suddenly mentioned the previous crown prince Xuanyuan Rui. He knew that Xuanyuan Rui was the pain in his heart, and he purposefully mentioned him so that he could see the changes in Xuanyuan Chen's emotions.

However, to his disappointment, Xuanyuan Chen did not even blink his eyes. There was only a faint sense of pride and arrogance between his brows, "Indeed, royal brother is unrivalled."

Xuanyuan Jing felt as if his fist had struck cotton, as though he couldn't exert any strength at all. He instantly felt that it was a little boring and twirled his fingers, and said: "Third brother, do you know how many people knew that you went to the Yue Country to retrieve the Soul-Breaking Grass?"

Xuanyuan Chen laughed coldly in his heart. He purposely let others know that although he appeared to be sick in the Prince Chen's Mansion, he still secretly went to the Royal Family of the State of Yue to get the Soul-Breaking Grass.

"Who knows?" The expression on his face tightened, as if his secret had been discovered by someone else.

Xuanyuan Jing waited for a long time, and when he finally saw the change in Xuanyuan Chen's expression, his heart felt at ease, and kindly reminded: "Third brother was too careless, and almost everyone in the imperial court knew of this matter. At this moment, they are trying to guess what kind of deal you made with the Yue Country for him to be willing to give you the Soul-Breaking Grass. "

"There is no need for Second Brother to worry. This King knows what to do." Xuanyuan Chen said indifferently, his expression returning to normal as though he did not care about what Xuanyuan Jing had said.

"Third brother, you must be careful and not harm yourself. Otherwise, I will feel that the days without third brother will be extremely boring."

Xuanyuan Jing patted Xuanyuan Chen's shoulder, suddenly, he knocked his own head and said: "This king suddenly recalled something. Although Imperial Doctor Hu said that Soul-Breaking Grass could live on, whether or not it could live on, Imperial Doctor Hu is not completely sure.

If there is anything wrong with this Soul-Breaking Grass that causes royal father's body to be in a worse state, I wonder if third brother can bear this sin. "

Xuanyuan Chen frowned slightly. What the Imperial Doctor Hu had said back then was indeed that as long as the Soul-Breaking Grass was brought over, it would be able to extend royal father's life. Why were Xuanyuan Jing saying these words today?

Could it be that something happened to the Soul-Breaking Grass?

Not good!

Xuanyuan Chen suddenly realized something, in his deep eyes, a cold killing intent flashed past, his entire body released a cold aura, and he asked: "King Jing, what are you planning to do?"

Xuanyuan Jing's eyes were filled with dense disdain and ridicule. He whispered into Xuanyuan Chen's ear, "Didn't Third Brother always know what this duke wants to do?"

Seeing Xuanyuan Chen's unfriendly face, the happiness in Xuanyuan Jing's heart grew even stronger.

Ever since he was young, he had always hated the hypocritical Xuanyuan Rui and the mischievous Xuanyuan Chen. He had struggled for a long time without exchanging back a single compliment from his father, but how could these two people easily obtain what others dreamed of?

Later, when Xuanyuan Rui died, only Xuanyuan Chen remained as a thorn in his flesh, wishing that he could be pulled out, but matriarch told him to take his time and not be hasty.

Until now, everything he had done was about to pay off. He was truly overjoyed.

Xuanyuan Chen smiled, "Since second royal brother has reminded this king so much, then this king will also remind second royal brother, you shouldn't treat this as a loss."

"Thank you, third brother. I wonder when this king will be able to drink the wedding wine between Third Brother and Third Sister-in-Law? If This King remembers correctly, it should be in half a month.

Xuanyuan Jing thanked him with less sincerity. With a change in topic, the topic changed to the day of Xuanyuan Chen's and Xie Qingrong's wedding.

Xie Qingrong watched on from the side as Xuanyuan Chen and Xuanyuan Jing fought back and forth against each other to solve the mystery, and she felt like her ears were going to turn into a cocoon.

However, when Xuanyuan Jing mentioned the matter of marriage, his heart still skipped a beat and he uneasily frowned.
