Li Xiangren remained silent, thinking about how to respond to Prince Miaojiang.
Seeing Li Xiangren's appearance, the prince believed that he was acquainted with the young master of Beili Pavilion, so he relaxed and waited for Li Xiangren's words.
Li Xiangren saw that the prince was determined to win, he deliberately sighed, and said: "Oh, I went to the capital a few months ago, and I did have a relationship with the owner of the Beili Pavilion, but it's a pity..."
Li Xiangren paused intentionally, wanting to catch the prince's appetite.
The prince was really impatient, he asked anxiously: "How about this young pavilion master? Ninth Prince, tell me quickly!"
Li Xiangren pretended to be frowning, and continued in a low tone: "It's a pity that the young pavilion master has a strange temperament. I'm afraid what she asked for was unusual."
The prince didn't hesitate for a moment, and immediately said: "No matter what rare treasures she wants, as long as I have them, I will give them to her."
Seeing that he was so eager for the King of Ten Thousand Gus, the people of Li Xiang understood how fanatical he was for the throne and power. What about harming the people
Li Xiangren changed his tone and said solemnly: "If you want to get something from the young master of Beili Pavilion, you have to pay the same price. Now, is the prince willing?"
The prince was stunned. He pondered Li Xiangren's words carefully, and suddenly realized that what he had been thinking about all along was the throne
Could it be that this young pavilion master wants to share the world of Miao Jiang equally with him
He really has to think about it.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Li Xiangren put on a considerate look and said, "I know this kind of condition is a bit harsh, so you don't need to rush to answer, you can come to me when you have made up your mind."
The prince couldn't come to his senses for a while, he was struggling to make a choice in his heart, and he didn't answer. After a while, the prince said: "Okay, let me go back and think about it. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave first."
Li Xiangren said politely: "I don't know that the prince came suddenly, and I didn't prepare any delicacies, so I won't keep the prince for dinner. Be careful on the way."
The prince looked at Li Xiangren's sincere gaze, and thought to himself: This Li Xiangren is willing to help me get back the King of Ten Thousand Gus. He really has no heart to compete with me for the throne. It seems that I am worrying too much.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling more at ease with him.
Accompanied by the dark night, Prince Miaojiang returned to the palace.
The prince and concubine had already prepared meals, and they were waiting for Prince Miaojiang to have dinner together when he came back.
Seeing the prince's return from a distance, the prince's concubine eagerly went forward to greet her, and said after saluting, "His Royal Highness has come back, let's eat first."
The prince waved his hand and said: "I don't have an appetite, you can eat first." Seeing his worried look, the princess knew that the news he got from the Ninth Prince was not going well, she wanted to comfort the prince, but she didn't know how to persuade him , the prince saw her refraining from speaking, and said to the attendants around him: "Go down first, I have something to talk to the princess."
After several people bowed and retreated, the prince slowly opened his mouth and told the concubine the whole process of meeting Li Xiangren today.
The concubine's face turned pale after hearing this, she only knew that the main thing about Beili Pavilion was unusual, but she didn't fully understand why she wanted to look like this.
The princess bit her lip, lowered her head, looked at the ground, and said in a low voice: "It seems that this young pavilion master is not simple."
The prince was helpless, and said: "Who is the king of ten thousand Gu in her hands? Now that things have happened, what can I do except agree to her conditions?"
The princess rolled her eyes and said, "Why don't we send someone to steal the King of Ten Thousand Gus back?"
The prince raised his head, looked at the concubine with contempt, and said, "What kind of idea is this? We don't know the strength of the young pavilion master, let alone in the capital, how dare we act rashly?"
The princess thought about it carefully, and felt that what the prince said made sense, so she gave up.
The prince just sat quietly beside him, his eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of mist, and no one could see what he was thinking. Suddenly, the prince raised his hand and patted the table, as if a big blow Determined, he said firmly: "No matter what, I will get the king of ten thousand Gu!"
After thinking about it all night, the prince got up early and came to Li Xiang's house when it was just dawn the next day.
At this time, Li Xiangren was sitting in the yard drinking tea. He seemed to know that the prince was coming to visit at this time, so he was not surprised, but stood up to greet him and said, "It's so early, the prince."
The prince just smiled perfunctorily and said, "I'm here today to trouble you with something."
Li Xiangren looked at his haggard face, and he must have not slept well last night, so he ordered his servants to make a new pot of refreshing tea, pour it for the prince, and said: "Prince, don't worry, sit down first and take your time." explain."
The prince took a sip of tea, sat down slowly, and said: "The last time I went to the capital, I didn't see the young pavilion master, and I have some important things to do recently, so I'm afraid I can't leave Miaojiang for the time being. I wrote a letter to the young pavilion master. I hope that the Ninth Prince can deliver the letter to the Young Pavilion Master."
Li Xiangren looked at the letter, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth, he quickly put the letter away, and said: "I will do my best to do what the prince told me."
Without hesitation, Li Xiangren packed his luggage and set foot on the road to the capital.
After finding Fenghuang, he gave her the letter.
At this time, Fenghuang was slightly closing his eyes, resting on a carved chair, and heard the report from his servants that Li Xiangren had come, after thinking about it, Fenghuang knew why Li Xiangren came this time , she straightened her hair in a hurry, was supported by the little girl specially arranged by Yang Tingjing, came to the main hall, and explained after seeing Li Xiangren: "I've been waiting for a long time. After pregnancy, people can't help but become more lazy, and they are always prone to sleepiness." .”
"You are back. I thought you would stay in Miaojiang and never come back." Fenghuang joked.
Li Xiangren shook his head and smiled helplessly. He originally thought it would be troublesome to seek revenge on that person, but unexpectedly it was very easy. It’s heavy, and you should take more rest.” While talking, he took out the letter and told Fenghuang that it was written by Prince Miaojiang himself.
Fenghuang smiled slightly, it was no different from what she thought, she slowly opened the letter, and after reading the contents on the paper, she couldn't help laughing, and said to herself: "The prince of Miaojiang said that he has the power of ten thousand gu King, he will be able to sit on the throne. After that, he will give me half of Miao Jiang's power. It's funny, what use do I need those powers for?"
When Li Xiangren heard this, he said, "For Prince Miaojiang, what he cares most about is power. If you want him to exchange the same thing, he must think of power."
