"Yes." Ye Xiu nodded slightly to them, then looked at the regent aside and said with a smile, "Since the regent thinks so highly of me, then I should also contribute. Yes. I don’t have any abilities, but I am still quite strong."
"Tsk..." The prince and Prince Bao gasped at the same time. What do you mean? Is it possible that Ye Xiudu really plans to work as a slave and pull a carriage
Where can they put their royal dignity like this? How can they spread the news? Especially now that the other three countries are in this imperial capital.
Probably only Ye Haoting frowned slightly, and then regained his composure. Although he had a normal relationship with this brother, he also knew that the always arrogant Ye Xiudu would never do such a thing.
However, the moment Ye Haoting saw Ye Xiudu appear, for some reason, he felt relieved and at ease.
The regent of Jinglei Kingdom may not necessarily take advantage of Prince Xiu of Shangfeng Cang Kingdom.
Sure enough, the regent narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the astonishing man in front of him in surprise.
As far as he knew, Prince Xiu of Feng Cang Kingdom should be an arrogant and difficult person to deal with. He heard that the emperor valued him very much and intended to pass the throne to him. I also heard that this Prince Xiu suddenly disappeared for four years and did not know where he went. He only recently appeared in the imperial capital.
Such a man would actually agree to pull the carriage for him
Ye Xiu laughed alone, bent down and gently put Nan Nan on the ground, and told him, "Stand aside and don't run around, you know?"
He spoke very gently. Not to mention the regent, even the prince and others had never seen him be so gentle to any child. No, I have never shown such tenderness to anyone.
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Nan Nan. The little guy raised his head and gave them a strange look. Then he nodded to Ye Xiudu, "I know."
Ye Xiudu snorted softly, then stood up, still facing the regent coldly, and said with a smile, "Didn't the regent want to appoint ten people to pull the carriage? Now even the king is included, but There are only six people, there are four more, please continue to point out, Prince Regent."
The prince was shocked, "Fifth brother, you don't really plan to..."
Ye Haoting pulled him and told him not to speak.
But the prince was very dissatisfied. What did Ye Xiudu want to do? Not only did he not stop the regent from humiliating the people, but he also went all out to get in on it, which was simply embarrassing.
Ye Xiudu had always ignored the prince whenever he could. Now that he saw him being pulled by Ye Haoting, he would ignore him even more.
On the contrary, the regent on the side looked at Ye Xiudu carefully with squinted eyes.
He was always cautious, especially when facing Ye Xiudu, he didn't dare to take it lightly.
Therefore, he was even more unwilling to be led by him. Whatever he said, he would say the opposite.
"Prince Xiu is joking. You are the noble prince of Fengcang Kingdom. How dare I trouble you to pull the carriage?"
"That's not what you said." Ye Xiudu let go of Nan Nan's hand and still smiled, but his voice gradually became louder, "Our Feng Cang Kingdom and Jing Lei Kingdom have always been different. Feng Cang Kingdom has always governed the country with benevolence. , and also adheres to the principle of taking from the people and using it for the people. My current status is also due to the love of the people. Whether a country is peaceful and peaceful, strong and prosperous still depends on everyone's joint efforts. I cherish the people, and the people Naturally, they will also respect me. So, if the common people can pull this carriage today, why can’t I, the king?"
"Okay, what the prince said is good." Someone in the crowd immediately shouted loudly.
This call immediately made the people who were at a disadvantage just now and were too frightened by the regent to move were all excited and their eyes were full of respect when they looked at Ye Xiudu.
This scene not only made the regent clenched his fists, but also made the prince and others' eyes red, their chests heaving and their expressions grim.
If Ye Haoting hadn't calmly held him back, he might have rushed forward and left Ye Xiu alone.
However, even if the prince was stopped, the regent still saw his subtle struggling movements and immediately laughed, "Isn't it contradictory for Prince Xiu to say this? Just now, the prince of your country proposed that your country should The common people are acting as beasts to pull the carriage and transport the prince of our country to the posthouse safely."
As soon as the regent said this, the prince's target immediately changed direction, "Regent, this prince has never said such a thing."
"Didn't you say it?" The regent laughed and asked his guard, "Didn't the prince say it just now? Did you hear it?"
His guard, still expressionless, repeated, "The prince said, if you can't use beasts, then use people."
"I..." The prince's face turned red. The regent was clearly misinterpreting his meaning.
The regent didn't even look at him, just shrugged and looked at Ye Xiudu. The Prince Xiu in front of him now is the one he must use all his energy to treat with caution, "Prince, did you hear that?"
"Regent, as far as I know, when the prince spoke just now, he clearly used questions. It was the regent who made his own judgment and insisted on using the people of our country to pull the carriage."
"Huh, question? If the prince didn't think so, why would he make such a suggestion?"
"I just said that our country has always been governed by benevolence. As soon as the regent entered the city, he killed two people of our country in front of the prince, and also chopped off the horse's head. Of course, he clashed with foreign countries The envoy is indeed wrong, but the prince has indeed seen relatively few such bloody scenes, and it is inevitable to speak inappropriately when he is frightened for a moment. What's more, the prince shoulders the important task of receiving the contestants of the Four Nations Competition. For such an emergency, the prince feels guilty. The two common people of our country, on the one hand, expressed their apologies for disturbing the envoys of other countries, so they made a mistake, and this was just an unintentional mistake."
When everyone heard this, they immediately nodded with deep understanding.
In the restaurant not far away, a window was slightly opened, and several figures were vaguely hidden behind the window. After a while, I heard a person chuckle, "Unexpectedly, in the rumor The usually cold and taciturn Prince Xiu of Fengcang Kingdom turned out to be so eloquent. In just a few words, he reversed the mistake the prince had just made and the bad impression among the people. From this point of view, the regent of Jinglei Kingdom today It’s impossible to please.”
After a pause, he suddenly smiled and shook his head, "No, not only will I not get any favors, I will probably suffer some losses."
