Chapter 381 The Young Singer's Journey 50
Xiao Yu coldly chased Xiao Jingxia away.
Although Xiao Jingxia felt a little disappointed, he quickly rallied his spirits.
Once a god steps down from his pedestal and into the world of people, he loses his aura and becomes no different from an ordinary person.
Human flaws will then be exposed without a doubt.
God can only continue to win people's respect and admiration by maintaining distance and mystery.
Xiao Jingxia was a case in point.
Instead of being angry at Xiao Yu's coldness, he was so moved that he almost cried, feeling grateful that he had just been able to admire Xiao Yu's handsome face up close.
She felt that her previous efforts and dedication had paid off, and that everything she had done was worthwhile. At the same time, she silently elevated Xiao Yu's status in her heart.
I felt as if I had been injected with endless energy, and I was so excited that I couldn't sleep all night.
He simply lit a candle, leaned over the desk, and meticulously planned his future infiltration scheme, silently plotting how to steal more intelligence from Xiao Chong to pass on to Xiao Yu and contribute to Xiao Yu's great cause.
However, amidst this excitement, Xiao Jingxia couldn't help but feel a touch of bitterness and helplessness.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Why weren't he and the Seventh Prince blood brothers? That way he could rightfully follow the Seventh Prince and admire his unparalleled charm at all times.
Unlike now, where one's body is in Cao Cao's camp but one's heart is with Han, one can only secretly support the other side.
In order to show his stance, he even had to belittle his seventh brother in front of his second brother against his will.
God knows, every word he spoke felt like a needle pricking his heart.
He couldn't understand. His seventh brother was already so handsome, so what could he have done wrong?
Even if he made a mistake, why can't everyone forgive him?
A narrow-minded and calculating person is destined to never embrace true joy and happiness.
Xiao Jingxia sighed softly, his gaze falling on the infiltration plans spread across the table. He murmured, "If only my second brother could give up the struggle for the throne, then I wouldn't be in such a predicament. At that time, my brother and I could assist our seventh brother together. The three of us, with our deep brotherly bond, would surely create a legendary tale that will be passed down through the ages."
Hey!
The second prince is far too stubborn.
In terms of appearance, he was not as handsome as his seventh brother;
In terms of taste in clothing, he is far inferior to his seventh brother.
Besides being older, what else does he have?
There's nothing there!
He was so ordinary, yet he insisted on competing with his seventh brother, making his seventh brother work so hard every day.
What if the Seventh Prince overworks himself and his appearance is damaged as a result?
Wouldn't that be killing me?
Xiao Jingxia shook her head violently, trying to dispel the terrible thought.
No.
He had to find a way to step up his efforts and bring his second brother down as soon as possible, and he absolutely could not allow his seventh brother to suffer any more trouble.
He wanted to ensure that his seventh brother could live a carefree life, go to bed early and get up early, and stay young forever.
Xiao Jingxia, who had just felt a little tired, instantly perked up and began to refine his infiltration plan.
While Xiao Jingxia was busy all night, Xiao Yu also stayed up all night.
He moved the mirror to the head of his bed and stared at his reflection for half the night, trying to understand Xiao Jingxia's thoughts.
Undeniably, this body's appearance is indeed outstanding.
But what does this mean?
"A feast for the eyes" is just an adjective.
Of course, Xiao Yu was just a mortal, with the same yearning and pursuit of beauty, and he was happy to see people around him with pleasing appearances, which was indeed a pleasant thing to do.
But he knew he would never show pity for anyone because of their beauty, nor would he go easy on them, and he also believed that this was the norm for most people.
But why would Xiao Jingxia spare no effort, even risking her life, to help him just because he is good-looking?
A good appearance can certainly be a plus, but to this extent, it still left him in disbelief.
Xiao Yu sighed.
Following his "love-obsessed" tendencies, a new mystery has been added to his list of questions.
……
Two more days passed in the blink of an eye, and Emperor Mingde finally returned to Tianqi City.
However, after arriving in Tianqi City, he did not return to the palace immediately, but instead took a stroll around the White King's Mansion and the Red King's Mansion.
Emperor Mingde's move was intended to tell everyone that even though he had been away from the palace for so long, he was still fully aware of everything that had happened in Tianqi City and knew about the two of them faking illness to leave the capital.
Marquis Lanyue, understanding the implied meaning from the music, perfectly coordinated with Emperor Mingde, feigning to complain to him. Emperor Mingde, taking advantage of the situation, effectively placed Xiao Chong and Xiao Yu under house arrest for a period of time.
Xiao Yu coldly observed Lan Yuehou's words and actions, silently sneering in his heart.
Lan Yuehou may seem like a gentle breeze and a bright moon, but in reality he is the most pragmatic person.
Back when the nine princes were vying for the throne, Marquis Lanyue was still young. Knowing that he had no chance of becoming emperor, he clung tightly to Emperor Tai'an and tried his best to win the emperor's favor.
After Xiao Ruojin ascended the throne and Xiao Ruofeng held great power, he became very close to both of them.
After Xiao Ruofeng got into trouble, he immediately severed ties with him, and their former brotherhood vanished in an instant.
Once he realized that Emperor Mingde intended for Xiao Chuhe to inherit the throne, he quickly adjusted his strategy, becoming extremely friendly towards Xiao Chuhe, while showing considerable indifference and indifference towards Xiao Chong and Xiao Yu.
However, after Xiao Chuhe was demoted to a commoner, he acted as if he had never had this nephew and never mentioned him again.
This ability to adapt to changing circumstances and change course is something that ordinary people can hardly match.
Emperor Mingde probably saw through the true nature of the Marquis of Lanyue. Although he appeared to be close to him, he actually only granted him the title of Marquis of Lanyue.
Xiao Yu gave a cold laugh.
Now that Xiao Chuhe has reappeared in the martial world, Emperor Mingde must already know about this matter and will surely send people to find him and bring him back to the capital again.
After learning of this, Marquis Lanyue will probably go and befriend his good nephew again.
really.
After escorting Emperor Mingde back to the palace, Marquis Lanyue hurriedly left the palace again less than half an hour later, leading a group of guards and heading straight for Snow Moon City.
After the message reached the Red King's residence, Long Xie paced anxiously: "Your Highness, Marquis Lan Yue's departure from the capital this time is clearly on His Majesty's orders to go to Snow Moon City to find Prince Yong'an. Should we make some preparations? Are we really just going to sit idly by and watch him bring Prince Yong'an back to Tianqi City?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu smiled gently.
He held a carved longbow in his hand, and with a slight release of his fingers, an arrow streaked across the sky like a meteor, striking the bullseye with deadly force: "What's the rush? So what if Prince Yong'an returns? Do you think I'm afraid of him?"
