587 Angry (4)
Gao Yang thought about what Ji Yushu said carefully and seemed to have understood something. When he looked at Xie Jingxing again, his gaze was filled with confusion. “If that’s the case, it’s actually a good thing that Luo Ling’s hand is crippled. This way, he’ll be even more inferior to you.”
“What a joke.” Xie Jingxing smiled instead of being angry. “Even if he has an extra hand, he still pales in comparison to me!”
Ji Yushu and Gao Yang were dumbfounded.
Did they say something wrong? Why did they feel that Xie Jingxing seemed to be even angrier?
Ji Yushu tried to comfort Xie Jingxing. “Of course. Third Brother is Prince Rui, His Majesty’s younger brother. No one in the world dares to look down on you. That Luo Ling is just the young master of a small local official in Ming Qi. In our country, he’ll be nobody. Moreover, he can’t even lift his right hand now. How can he compare to Third Brother?” Ji Yushu was good at bootlicking.
“Ji Yushu, are you comparing me to a cripple? Do you want me to send you back home?” Xie Jingxing’s voice was even colder.
Ji Yushu was stunned, not knowing what to say.
Gao Yang was smart enough to interrupt and change the topic. He asked, “The people in the tower jail asked about what to do with Xie Changchao’s corpse. Now that Shen Miao has already returned to the Shen family, what’s your next step?”
At this moment, Xie Changwu must be feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles. Xie Changchao disappeared just like that, but Shen Miao, who was kidnapped, returned safely. What would he think?
Hearing this, Xie Jingxing slowly curled his lips and said, “The next step is naturally to settle the score.”
Gao Yang looked at Xie Jingxing for a while and asked tentatively, “Do you… plan to deal with Princess Ming An too?”
“Otherwise?” Xie Jingxing said casually, “The dogs raised in the State of Qin are not disciplined properly. They go crazy and bite people everywhere. If they’re caught and killed, people in the State of Qin can’t blame anyone.”
“However.” Gao Yang disagreed.” Even so, His Majesty has instructed us not to act rashly while we are in Ming Qi. If Princess Ming An is gone, Huangfu Hao will definitely investigate. If he gets to the bottom of it, even if you have a way to smooth things over, it will still cause a lot of trouble.”
“Who said I’m going to use people from the Daliang Dynasty?” Xie Jingxing sneered. “Can’t I use my own people?”
Gao Yang was stunned. A moment later, he said, “Why do you have to get rid of Princess Ming An? You can beat her up and teach her a lesson, but why do you have to take her life?”
“That crazy dog has caused me a lot of trouble.” Xie Jingxing’s gaze darkened. “I can get rid of whoever I want. I don’t have to tell you, right?” With that, he bent down to pick up the white tiger and walked out, ignoring the two of them.
Ji Yushu frowned and said, “Is Third Brother on period? Why has he been so moody recently? Did you provoke him?”
“No!” Gao Yang said, “I still want to live a little longer.”
“It seems like Xie Changwu and Princess Ming An are doomed this time.” Ji Yushu said sympathetically, “In that case, Xie Changchao was lucky that he died early and his death wasn’t all that painful”
