Chapter 275: Chapter 115: Return to the Court (7) Xiao Jinsen Targets Ye Qichi_4
"You mean, the Princess behind Xiao Jinxing is the real mastermind, the true strategist!"
"I dare not be certain. I’ve only heard old rumors saying that the Princess was useless and merely an empty-headed young lady. Therefore, I never paid much attention to the Princess and didn’t delve deeper, so I cannot assert if it’s really the Princess assisting the Prince. Originally, I planned to kill the Prince and bring back the Princess to unravel the truth, unfortunately..." Shi Yongcheng dared not continue.
Xiao Jinsen’s face was covered in blood.
At this moment, he naturally wished he could kill Xiao Jinxing and Ye Qichi.
At that moment, he seemed to recall the first time he saw Ye Qichi.
At the gambling house.
Ye Qichi came to save Yun Nan. At that time, Ye Qichi’s courage and extraordinary wisdom indeed left a... profound impression on him.
Upon further consideration.
At that moment, Ye Qichi also sabotaged his plan.
Originally, he wanted to use this method to gain favor with the Minister Mansion, making them owe him a great favor and work for him. However, because of Ye Qichi, all his efforts fell through. Later, when he sent people to test the Minister Mansion, Ye Zhengde, that old fool, actually said he stood with Xiao Jinxing, meaning whoever Xiao Jinxing was loyal to, he would be too, conveniently pushing all responsibilities onto Xiao Jinxing.
Xiao Jinsen grew angrier the more he thought about it.
It turned out, Ye Qichi was the one he should have eliminated, the true thorn in his eye!
Just then, he suddenly thought of what Ye Qichi looked like...
The second time they met, at the palace banquet.
It was originally his engagement banquet, but it was rigidly turned down by Bai Mowan.
Surprisingly.
Although he was naturally upset by Bai Mowan’s rejection, what left the deepest impression on him during that banquet was not Bai Mowan, but rather Ye Qichi, whose stunning appearance and the ability to successfully and cleverly resolve his own crisis.
He had originally thought that it was Xiao Jinxing assisting Ye Qichi from behind the scenes.
Now he had to admit.
It was all Ye Qichi helping Xiao Jinxing.
This woman!
Xiao Jinsen’s eyes narrowed.
His gaze clearly carried murderous intent.
"Prince," Shi Yongcheng respectfully said, "Although the Prince has repeatedly sabotaged our plans and fortunately escaped, the Emperor will never really rely on him because he is disabled. Throughout the history of Daxuan Kingdom, no emperor has ascended to the throne with a disability. It’s not just about whether the imperial family allows it, the ministers and the people also wouldn’t accept it. Thus, even if the Prince was remarkable, he would never gain the true recognition from the Emperor."
Xiao Jinsen sneered coldly.
If it were not for Xiao Jinxing being disabled, he would have died a hundred times over.
"So, Prince, even if the Prince isn’t dead, we shouldn’t worry too much. We initially attempted to kill the Prince simply because he disrupted our plans and needed to be taught a lesson. In reality, we never thought he posed a significant threat to our grand ambitions, as long as he isn’t used by the Crown Prince. He wouldn’t be a major threat," Shi Yongcheng explained. "I believe the Prince doesn’t have the audacity to strive for the throne."
Xiao Jinsen’s face showed a cruel expression, "That’s not certain, as a member of the imperial family, no one does not aspire to acquire the supreme position."
"But if he is smart enough, he should be aware of his limitations. I think, during his journey to the state of Yuzhou, it was more about self-preservation. It’s because of his need to protect himself that he sabotaged our plans and had to confront us. The Prince doesn’t have such audacity."
In fact, deep down, Xiao Jinsen also looked down on Xiao Jinxing.
Although smart, due to his disability and being unfavored by their father, Xiao Jinxing was doomed to a mediocre and depressed life.
"I think since the Prince lacks the capability to ascend to the ultimate throne, with his current abilities, Prince, you might use this opportunity to win over the Prince. More precisely, to win over the Princess."
Xiao Jinsen’s brows furrowed slightly.
Hearing Ye Qichi’s name at this moment, his heart seemed to skip a beat.
Naturally, he wouldn’t let anyone notice his unusual reaction.
But hearing his staff member suggesting this, brought a little... emotional turmoil.
Ye Qichi, this woman, unexpectedly made him want to possess her one day!
He thought the only person who could match him was Bai Mowan.
Of course.
Bai Mowan was still his first choice for a Princess.
The Bai Family holding significant military power, naturally has a different status from others.
Xiao Jinsen’s face darkened again.
What was he thinking?!
What merits did Ye Qichi have that stirred feelings similar to those for Bai Mowan?
Ye Qichi, such an unclean woman.
How could he have such thoughts about her?
It was simply an insult to his personal integrity.
That woman.
Not even worthy of warming his bed!
"Prince," Shi Yongcheng clearly sensed Xiao Jinsen’s distraction but couldn’t fathom what he was thinking.
Thus, he called out to him once more.
Xiao Jinsen came back to his senses.
In that moment, he quickly covered up his inner thoughts.
He stated plainly, "Tomorrow Xiao Jinxing returns to the palace. The Emperor has arranged a celebratory banquet for Xiao Jinxing’s achievements. Tomorrow, I shall meet Xiao Jinxing properly."
He clearly agreed with Shi Yongcheng’s viewpoint.
Agreeing at this moment.
Yet his heart still felt a bit... unusual.
As if there was a fire in his chest.
Not just rage.
But also...
His expression slightly darkened, he immediately left the Prince Mansion’s great hall.
As he was leaving, he instructed his personal guard, "Send two maids to my room."
The guard was taken aback,
Although Prince Xiao hadn’t married and naturally enjoyed certain pleasures, he was definitely not a licentious man.
However, during this broad daylight...
Of course, the guard didn’t dare question further and quickly responded respectfully, "Yes."
