"Well, let's work together." Xiao Huayong's eyes were full of tenderness.
She was willing to work with him to prevent them from becoming enemies. For Xiao Huayong, this moment was as satisfying as if he had possessed the treasure he had always dreamed of.
Shen Xihe smiled and lowered her eyes, a slight ripple passing through her heart.
Did she have feelings for Xiao Huayong? It couldn't be said that she didn't, at least she would care about his emotions and accommodate his temper. But it couldn't be said that she didn't, she just changed the way she treated him.
From being resolute and resolute to being gentle and kind, she was still sober and rational. Compared with insignificant people, she would certainly protect and help Xiao Huayong, but once it came to her loved ones, she would still choose to oppose him without hesitation.
"Will the Fourth Prince come?" Shen Xihe asked again.
She was unsure a few days ago, and she is still unsure today. Compared with the sentimental Third Prince, Xiao Changtai obviously values power and wealth.
"Yes." Xiao Huayong was very confident. "Li kidnapped Ye and passed information to the fourth brother. She has been writing to the fourth brother frequently in the past few days. I also found out how they communicated and switched her letters in the middle."
Li Yanyan's letter clearly stated that Ye Wantang was in her hands. If Xiao Changtai knew this, he would not panic and he would still be confident in dealing with Li Yanyan.
Xiao Huayong replaced Li Yanyan's letter with the picture album. Whenever something happened in Kyoto, Xiao Changtai would not suspect Li Yanyan, but would first think of Ye Wantang who fell into Xiao Huayong's hands.
He, Shen Xihe, if he hadn't come, Ye Wantang would have died quietly like Munuha, and this was definitely not a joke to him.
Xiao Huayong originally planned to let Xiao Changtai know that it was Li Yanyan who intercepted Ye Wantang, so that he would have fewer worries and feel that he was more than capable of dealing with Li Yanyan. However, after careful consideration, he felt that he might have other ways to exchange Ye Wantang from Li Yanyan.
Moreover, Xiao Changzhen just spit out some white foam, Li Yanyan would not really harm Ye Wantang for this. As long as Xiao Changtai finds another way to apologize or appease Li Yanyan and bows his head to Li Yanyan, this matter may be over.
Therefore, he temporarily changed his plan and did not alarm Li Yanyan, but instead provoked Xiao Changtai.
"In addition to his affection for the Ye family, there is also his self-confidence." Xiao Huayong put his hands behind his back, stood tall, and looked at the colorful flowers competing for beauty. "He wants to really fight with me once."
Xiao Changtai is a capable, confident man. Being forced to this point, he will never back down. Otherwise, what qualifications does he have to compete for the throne
This reason convinced Shen Xihe. Shen Xihe didn't believe that people like Xiao Changtai came purely for Ye Wantang. But if it was for a man's integrity and pride, Shen Xihe thought it was reasonable.
He had never really fought against Xiao Huayong, so it was reasonable for him to want to see who was better.
"Your Highness must also be careful. If he comes, he will definitely go all out." Shen Xihe warned softly.
"It's just right to wipe out his entire army." A sneer flashed across Xiao Huayong's lips.
Just as Xiao Huayong expected, after a night of careful consideration, Xiao Changtai decided to go to Beijing.
"Your Highness, please think twice." The confidant who had received the news tried his best to dissuade him, "The forces we have cultivated in Kyoto are not enough, and we are under the nose of Your Majesty. If we take action now, we will be completely exposed."
