"Publicly...?"
Qi Xi became interested and quickly understood the meaning.
"The letter states that Ji Huang will make this challenge known to the world. If my relationship with you is made public, it is indeed a countermeasure."
"You want to use this to attack him... This is indeed a method. But I think it may make him hate you more."
Maybe the challenge will turn into a life and death duel.
It's not that Ye An hasn't thought about this.
If the conflict intensifies to the point of a life-and-death duel, it will be a duel between the entire temple and the Ji family. The Ji family obviously does not have the ability to be on an equal footing with the temple.
It just depends on what Qi Xi means. After all, she is the real owner of the temple.
"But..." Qi Xi took a piece of sweet candy and put it into his mouth, saying, "He wants to kill you, I will protect you, don't worry, just do as you say."
"And rather, what you did was exactly what I wanted."
She had only accepted Mu Qingxue's "war letter" before, and she needed a way to dampen Mu Qingxue's energy.
Let her know that Ye An is not so easy to snatch...
But in Ye An's eyes.
This was the first time he saw Qi Xi's eyes showing such a strong desire to win.
"It seems that Your Majesty and I have come together."
Ye An said, "But Your Majesty, what's going on with your unprovoked desire to win?"
Qi Xi pursed his lips and said, "You are going to make trouble for Ji Huang; similarly, I am going to make trouble for that silly girl Mu Qingxue... To be honest, I quite like her, but I prefer to see her injured and deflated. appearance."
"Do you find it strange?" she asked.
The corners of Ye An's mouth twitched slightly.
Is this Qixi’s hidden S-shaking attribute
"Kind of." He nodded and said firmly.
"Okay." Qi Xi rubbed the ends of his hair and said, "I won't change it anyway."
"She is also suffering a fate. She has been sleeping for a long time and is preparing to break out of the Nine-Yang Spin Turtle. This was the opportunity I left for her, but the Yang-Kang Dragon Fish got there first."
"We'll wait and see when she finally wakes up and accepts her fate with peace of mind."
Ye An: "..."
The Nine Sun Tortoise is gone, the Yang Kang Dragon Fish's beast elixir is full of evil spirits; his father is the Holy Son who took office to lead the rebellion, and his lover is the son of luck... It is indeed quite bleak.
The so-called children of luck, luck does not arise out of thin air, but is plundered from others unintentionally.
This can be seen from Mu Qingxue's experience.
The death of the previous Holy Son must have been to give the Son of Destiny the fighting spirit and reason to rebel against the Temple in the future.
Mu Qingxue is even more of a disaster.
Fortunately, the son of luck is dead.
It's just that Mu Qingxue's experience, when Qi Xi told it like this, had the slightest hint of being a villain or a bad woman.
This really poked Ye An's temper.
Qi Xi suddenly asked: "Don't talk about these anymore."
"When is the time Ji Huang has set with you?"
"You go ahead and prepare yourself. I'll listen to you later."
She felt sleepy, rubbed her eyes, yawned, and said, "I'll take a nap first."
Ye An nodded and said, "Go to sleep."
Ji Huang agreed that the competition would begin seven days later in the Ji family compound in Zhongzhou.
It’s not too rushed, just have some time to rest.
Soon he saw that Qi Xi didn't even bother to move. He just lay down on the table and fell asleep.
In her consciousness, there were two consciousnesses fighting secretly.
Ye An rubbed his forehead, picked up Qi Xi's body, and settled down on the bed.
He looked at Qi Xi's sleeping face and fell into deep thought.
Soon, they were about to go to bed together.
Qi Xi suddenly opened his eyes, and the original blood pupils were replaced by gold again.
"?"
She saw Ye An's movements and said, "While I'm taking a break, what are you going to do?"
"without."
Ye An shook his head slightly and said calmly, "I just want to see your eyes."
Qi Xi said: "What's so good about my eyes? You... just want to take advantage of me, right?"
Ye An responded: "No, I just think His Majesty's eyes are sometimes red and sometimes golden, just like the traffic lights, which is a bit special."
The topic changed very successfully, successfully covering up his unscrupulous intention of taking advantage.
Qi Xi pursed his lips slightly and said, "Traffic light? What do you mean?"
"Forget it, don't worry about this."
Ye An nodded and said, "Okay."
She opened the quilt and stood up with a sigh. When she saw the revealing black short skirt she was wearing, her face quickly turned red.
"You turn around first and I'll change my clothes."
She said, "Go and ask that girl Mu Qingxue to come over. We will go back later."
Ye An asked doubtfully: "Go back?"
Qi Xi sighed slightly, his eyes helpless, "There are too many memorials to bear, and I can't bear them down... I dreamed that Yue'er came to me."
Ye An: "..."
He nodded slightly and left.
…
Zhongzhou Temple, top floor.
The maid Yue'er lay on the table and fell asleep.
What was pressed in front of her was a mountain of memorials.
She did her best.
When she encountered some messy memorials, she simply vetoed them according to Empress Qixi's wishes.
As for the rest, there was nothing she could do.
Suddenly, she heard a noise.
It was the rawness of space being torn apart.
"Your Majesty...!"
Yue'er was suddenly awakened.
When he raised his head, he saw two figures slowly emerging from the crack in space.
She rubbed her eyes, as if she was dreaming. Only when she saw clearly did she realize that it was indeed Qi Xi.
"Your Majesty, you are finally back!"
The maid Yue'er said in a resentful tone, then she was stunned and said: "Lord Holy Son, you are also here..."
Qi Xi's face was calm and his eyes were calm.
She was about to say something to respond to the maid, but when she saw the backlog of memorials all over the sky, she couldn't help but have a headache and turned pale.
"I came all the way back."
Ye An casually brushed it off.
Qixi said: "Thank you for your hard work during this period, Yue'er, go and have a good rest first."
The maid was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said: "No, how can I still have time to rest now..."
"Your Majesty, what on earth is going on with this letter of challenge!?"
In comparison, the pile of memorials seemed insignificant.
She took out the letter.
It was a challenge letter published by Ji Huang that was widely publicized in Zhongzhou not long ago.
Qi Xi's eyes were calm, he sat down lazily and said, "What is the challenge?"
She and Ye An both knew what was going on.
The maid Yue'er opened her mouth slightly, but was speechless.
Immediately, her eyes switched back and forth between Ye An and Qi Xi, and then she lowered her head to look at the contents on the letter.
"This letter of challenge should be known to half of the Central States by now."
"If you want to be more specific, please take a look, Your Majesty..."
The maid bravely asked directly: "Your Majesty, what is your relationship with the Holy Son...? Or is there some misunderstanding?"
Qi Xi held his chin in his hand, took the letter, glanced at it, and then said disapprovingly: "Oh, was it written by Ji Huang of the Ji family? Did he spread the word?"
The maid nodded stiffly, "It is indeed him."
She couldn't help but ask again: "But Your Majesty, what is your relationship with the Holy Son...?"
Qi Xi raised his head slightly, remained silent for a while, and looked at Ye An again.
"you guess."
The two said in unison.
Maid Yue'er: "..."
