The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 242 - 107: Journey to Yu State (28) The Angry Prince Dog_3

Chapter 242: Chapter 107: Journey to Yu State (28) The Angry Prince Dog_3

Two people, under the arrangement of the servants, were checked into separate rooms.

Originally, Ye Qichi’s room was with Xiao Jinxing, but her strong insistence on separation brought her closer to Gu Xingchuan instead.

At the moment she returned to her room,

Ye Qichi called out to Gu Xingchuan, "Your arrival this time will definitely let Xiao Jinsen know you’ve defied him, and you’ll become a thorn in his side."

"I am well prepared," Gu Xingchuan said unconcernedly.

"What I mean is, you need to make your stance clear now, you must declare your position in front of Xiao Jinxing. Once he returns, he will surely be rewarded by the Emperor, and once he gains power, he can ensure your safety."

Gu Xingchuan clearly understood.

Ye Qichi was suggesting that he follow the prince.

"Don’t worry, although Xiao Jinxing has a bad temper, a harsh personality, and is cruel, he will treat those loyal to him generously, unlike Xiao Jinsen. Xiao Jinsen would turn hostile for profit, but Xiao Jinxing won’t. If you follow Xiao Jinxing and are not killed by outsiders, Xiao Jinxing will protect you for life!"

Gu Xingchuan simply looked at Ye Qichi and asked, "Do you trust him that much?"

"It’s a fact," Ye Qichi could sense the hint of disappointment in Gu Xingchuan’s tone.

Gu Xingchuan nodded, "I’ve once promised you, and I won’t go back on my word. From now on, I will follow the prince and devote myself to him."

The words "devote myself" still caused a distinctive pain in Ye Qichi’s heart.

As if Gu Xingchuan was choosing to loyally serve Xiao Jinxing because of her.

But in fact,

In the text, Gu Xingchuan is truly loyal to Xiao Jinxing.

If there were any danger, Gu Xingchuan would be the kind of man to shield Xiao Jinxing himself.

She suppressed the emotions in her heart, "Anyway, following Xiao Jinxing is the right choice."

In the end,

He will unify the realm.

And Gu Xingchuan will be, second only to one, above ten thousand.

"Hmm," Gu Xingchuan nodded.

Whatever Ye Qichi said, he believed.

"Rest early," Ye Qichi said. "I’m also going back to my room."

"Okay."

Ye Qichi turned and left.

Gu Xingchuan just watched the figure of Ye Qichi,

For a long time,

Before leaving.

...

Xiao Jinxing is in Bai Mowan’s room.

The two of them sipped tea.

Bai Mowan said, "Brother Xiao, the day you return to the court, I will also be setting off for the border."

Xiao Jinxing nodded, silently nodding.

Since returning from the plague area, he seems to have always been like this, cold yet showing not much emotion.

"A trip to the border might again take half a year," Bai Mowan said. "Brother Xiao, would you forget about me?!"

Half a year ago, when she left, she never had such worries.

But this time, for some reason, she felt somewhat uneasy.

"No," Xiao Jinxing said seriously, "not matter how long."

"Ye Qichi and you..."

"We are going to part ways."

Yes,

They are parting, so there’s no need to care about her indiscretion.

Even though, in front of the public, as the Prince’s wife, Ye Qichi had compromised his dignity,

But she saved so many civilians, did so much for him, he should forgive her.

"I think..." Bai Mowan paused, hesitating.

"Speak freely, Wan’er," he said.

"I think, Ye Qichi and Gu Xingchuan, seem to be quite close," Bai Mowan didn’t explicitly state their relationship.

She certainly couldn’t deduce any romantic feelings between Ye Qichi and Gu Xingchuan just from several encounters, nor would she deliberately slander anyone, she was just surprised how Ye Qichi had interactions with Gu Xingchuan.

Gu Xingchuan hails from a merchant family.

Ye Qichi comes from a family of officials.

They should not have any interaction in the first place.

"Mm," Xiao Jinxing replied.

Suddenly,

Ye Qichi and Gu Xingchuan had this kind of connection.

"How did they meet?" Bai Mowan asked curiously.

Xiao Jinxing also didn’t know.

Previously, he never really paid attention to Ye Qichi.

But now, he has discovered that many things Ye Qichi has done seemed to be helping him, to fulfill his wishes.

"However, no matter what, Gu Xingchuan’s appearance this time has declared his stance," Bai Mowan said. "Brother Xiao should seize the opportunity to bring him under your command, and you must not let Xiao Jinsen take advantage."

Xiao Jinxing nodded.

He also understood Bai Mowan’s worries.

This time Gu Xingchuan’s delivery of medicine to Chuyu,

Xiao Jinsen would only have two choices regarding Gu Xingchuan,

One is to coax him, the other is to kill him.

Both options are detrimental to him.

So some things, he had to make clear with Gu Xingchuan.
