The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 294 - 120 Xiao Hezhen’s Grand Wedding_3

Xiao Hezhen’s eyes were somewhat red.

The emotion of collapse, wanting to cry out many times.

But she was enduring it all along, afraid that crying would ruin her makeup.

"Wu Xufan is your happiness," Ye Qichi persuaded.

Xiao Hezhen nodded.

Silently, she nodded. free𝑤ebnovel.com

"Right." Ye Qichi suddenly thought of something, "Lady Li has always been sensible, knowing how to survive in the palace, but still, the harem is dangerous, and you need to remind the Lady Li to be cautious."

"Sister-in-law means, something will happen?"

"Your third brother, namely Xiao Jinxing, has now recovered from his leg ailment and has earned the emperor’s favor, gaining some enemies in the court. Marquis Wu’s Mansion, being the closest ally to Xiao Jinxing, will inevitably become a thorn in the side of certain people. Now that you are married to Young Master, you will naturally face certain repercussions, and so will your mother."

Ye Qichi made it clear.

She had never thought of keeping too much from Xiao Hezhen.

After all, it was Xiao Hezhen who would later stand unconditionally by Xiao Jinxing’s side.

Considered to be, one of our own.

"Yes, if I have the chance to enter the palace, I shall remind my mother more frequently."

"The wedding banquet is about to start. I’ll leave first."

"Sister-in-law, please take care," Xiao Hezhen said, rising to see her off.

"Hezhen, stay where you are," Ye Qichi called out to her, "Tonight there’s the wedding night; it’s best for you to conserve your energy."

Xiao Hezhen’s face flushed immediately.

Such straightforward words were absolutely not to be uttered by a woman.

But she did not mind it at all.

On the contrary, she liked Ye Qichi’s forthrightness.

Ye Qichi smiled and then left.

Walking along the long corridor of Marquis Wu’s Mansion, she saw from afar Xiao Jinxing and Wu Wenchang entering a room together.

It seemed.

They were plotting something again.

...

Wu Wenchang’s study.

Xiao Jinxing and Wu Wenchang sat in chairs, sipping tea.

Wu Xufan was still dressed as a bridegroom, standing properly beside them.

"Prince, was it the Princess who cured your leg ailment?" Wu Wenchang asked.

"Yes." Xiao Jinxing nodded.

"I didn’t expect the Princess to have such a skill."

Ye Qichi’s skills...

Xiao Jinxing took a sip of tea.

He actually didn’t know just how extensive they were.

"However, the Princess’s edge might not necessarily be a good thing for the Prince," Wu Wenchang said with some concern.

Xiao Jinxing’s eyes flickered slightly, "Did the Empress Dowager say anything?"

"The Empress Dowager mentioned that it’s very likely the Prince of Chu has set his sights on the Princess and wants you to be vigilant. In case the Princess betrays you, it could ruin our grand plans, and she emphasizes that you should not be swayed by feelings of affection."

"Fear not, if Ye Qichi truly gets bought by Xiao Jinsen, I will be ruthless," Xiao Jinxing said calmly.

Wu Xufan glanced at Xiao Jinxing from the side.

He always felt this guy was just being stubborn.

If Ye Qichi really gets swayed by Xiao Jinsen... suddenly he has an inexplicable desire to witness that scene, to see what kind of state Xiao Jinxing would be in.

"The Empress Dowager said, now that you have power and the Emperor has begun to value you, we should strike while the iron is hot and deal with the Crown Prince first," Wu Wenchang finally brought up the main topic of today, "and then pin the Crown Prince’s death on the Prince of Chu. Let the Prince of Chu and the Empress’s power struggle against each other, then we can benefit from the chaos."

Xiao Jinxing’s gaze tightened.

Those so-called peaceful days were, it seems... over.

"In two months, the Emperor will go hunting. That will be the opportunity," Wu Wenchang said.

"Good," Xiao Jinxing agreed without hesitation.

"Prince, your body has recovered; I suggest you learn martial arts. Hunting can be dangerous, and I also suspect the Prince of Chu might make a move."

Xiao Jinxing nodded, "Xiao Jinsen is more impatient than us. He thought his only rival was the Crown Prince, but now there’s me, which will make him panic. Moreover, Xiao Jinxing is unlikely to target the Crown Prince first; that would be too risky for him. He will first aim to eliminate me. Perhaps, he will even use our method, after killing me, pin it on the Crown Prince."

"Then, all the more reason for you to learn some martial arts!"

"Hmm." Xiao Jinxing nodded.

"I have several top-notch experts under my command. After you return to Prince Chen’s Mansion today, I will send someone to teach you martial arts."

"Good," Xiao Jinxing consented once again, and then said, "It’s getting late; Xufan’s wedding shouldn’t be delayed."

"Indeed."

Then the men left the room together.

...

After the midday banquet was over, Ye Qichi left with Xiao Jinxing.
