It was just that, compared to the other women that had ideas against him, Xia Tao Hua's demands were much more magnanimous, and he didn't pretend to be courteous or evasive. However, this didn't make Yan Yuan give her any face.
Xia Tao Hua bit his dry lips, and then revealed a pale smile to Yan Yuan, "There's nothing more important than a life, does Your Highness not think so?"
In fact, she wanted to say, in the eyes of the prince, nothing was more important than Bull Guard's life, but she did not dare say these words for fear of angering Yan Yuan.
The reason why she dared to propose such a condition to Yan Yuan was because she had a 90% chance of winning. King Jing cared very much about Bull Guard's life, and her imagination was even more important.
This time, if she gambled correctly, then even if she died in the future, she wouldn't have any regrets.
Sure enough, after Yan Yuan heard her words, his expression calmed down a little. He looked at her coldly and laughed sarcastically, "I heard that your life on the Long Island with your brother isn't easy."
Xia Tao Hua's expression tightened, and then, he mocked himself: "I believe that Your Highness can guess the reason behind Peach Blossom raising this condition."
Yan Yuan's face darkened as he stared at her for a long while, and said: "You really can save Qing … Bull Guard? "
"Yes!"
Xia Tao Hua nodded without hesitation.
Seeing that Yan Yuan was silent for a moment, he said: "Alright, after you cure her, this king will marry you."
After saying that, Xia Tao Hua smiled and shook his head, and said: "No, Your Highness wants to marry me first."
"Don't push yourself too far!"
Yan Yuan's expression turned cold.
"Your Highness, to be honest, I do not have much time left. I want to guarantee that my brother can successfully ascend to the throne in my lifetime, I also know that only Your Highness can help me."
After thinking for a moment, she continued, "My lord, I do not need the position of first wife. What I want is an identity like that of the people who are with you, someone who can intimidate those people from the Lantau Continent."
Whether or not he was the main wife was not important to her, as someone who was on the verge of death, she did not need to have any extravagant hopes.
Yan Yuan understood what Xia Tao Hua meant. Although she was angry at Qing Er for giving up her life in exchange, she did not covet for the position of main wife.
After a long while, he looked at Xia Tao Hua and asked: "How are you going to save her? This King heard that the illness can only be cured by blood replacement. "
Yan Yuan's words was equivalent to tacitly agreeing to her conditions. Xia Tao Hua heaved a sigh of relief without batting an eyelid, and the clenched fists under his sleeves loosened as well.
Although they could have predicted that Yan Yuan would agree, they still did not have enough confidence in their hearts.
"Then Your Highness should also know that you need to have enough inner strength to treat this disease."
Xia Tao Hua looked at Yan Yuan, and continued: "With my current condition, I don't have enough internal energy to exchange the Bull Guard's blood."
She rushed in front of him and continued: "I will first use medicine to treat him. Once his body is better, I will treat him with my Blood Transformation."
However, the iciness in his eyes did not disappear because of it, "You should have heard of my methods before. If I find out that you're lying to me, this king will not let off a single one of the people behind you."
Xia Tao Hua's originally calm face paled, then he laughed: "Your highness also knows what the peach blossoms care about, how could I dare lie to you."
"It's good that you know this."
With that, he left with an ashen face.
Liu Ruo Qing stood on the second floor's corridor, and from the top down, she could see the situation outside the courtyard. Yan Yuan and Xia Tao Hua stood facing each other, and the two of them seemed to be discussing something.
Yan Yuan was currently facing away from her, so she couldn't see the expression on his face, but he could see Xia Tao Hua's face.
From the smile on Xia Tao Hua's face, he must be chatting quite well with Yan Yuan.
To actually be able to chat with her for so long due to Yan Yuan's impatient nature towards women, he must really like Xia Tao Hua.
The corner of Liu Ruo Qing's mouth curved slightly. She was somewhat gratified, but she was still feeling a little sad in her heart.
Two days later, news of Yan Yuan marrying Xia Tao Hua as his secondary wife spread. When Liu Ruo Qing heard this news, she was stunned.
After a long while, she murmured in a low voice, "It's actually not the main wife."
Right now, the position of main wife was empty. She thought that Yan Yuan would definitely give her the position of main wife.
However, even with the status of a side concubine, this was enough to make people jealous. At the very least, when it spread to the ears of the other envoys, it was enough to make people jealous.
Everyone knew that for a person to be able to form a relationship with the King Jing, not to mention a side concubine, even if it was a concubine, there would be plenty of people fawning on his.
"The position of first wife. The prince must have left it for us, the late princess. How can it be replaced by someone else?"
When the servant girl beside her who was preparing her meals heard her low mumble, she quickly followed up.
Liu Ruo Qing regained her senses, hearing her words, she only pursed her lips but did not say anything.
Regardless of whether or not he was a secondary wife, as long as he could make Yan Yuan's future life a little easier, she would be at ease.
Prince Lu's Mansion —
"Didn't you say that the King Jing wouldn't really fall for the Peach Blossom Princess? Why would he want to marry her in just two days? If Ruo Qing is no longer around, then that's fine, but since Ruo Qing is right now, it's not like he doesn't know, but it's clear that she isn't feeling well. "
Liu Tian Xin was a little angry, if it was before because of anger, King Jing allowed Xia Tao Hua to stay in King Jing Palace, that would be fine, but now that news of him marrying her had spread, how could she still be angry?
Seeing that his wife was truly angry, Yan Jue quickly went over to her side and coaxed: "My wife, don't worry, I will find an opportunity to ask Old Nine. I understand his personality, there must be some other reason."
Liu Tian Xin looked up, and shot him an unhappy glance. She pouted and said: "This is not certain, men always think differently when seeing someone. Furthermore, that Peach Blossom Princess is so beautiful, even men would be tempted by her."
Hearing that, Yan Jue's face immediately turned bitter, "My wife, you better not kill a whole ship with a single blow. Other than my wife, no one else is worthy enough for me."
In order to express his sincerity, he pointed four fingers at Liu Tian Xin and swore.
Liu Tian Xin was originally full of anger due to Yan Yuan wanting to marry Xia Tao Hua, but when she saw Yan Jue like this, she could not help but burst out laughing, reached out to push him, and said: "I'm serious, why are you bringing this up?"
Yan Jue shamelessly moved closer to her, "Is there anything more important than making my wife happy?"
Liu Tian Xin smiled, but then glanced at him unhappily. Following that, her expression became serious again as she said: "Tell me, is Ruo Qing feeling really bad right now? Why don't we go to King Jing Palace to see her?"
