Thanks to Dillycat for the chapters (1/2) ๐๐

Ye Ji covered her face with her hand, not understanding what he was saying. โIโm picking at your relationship? Donโt forget, we are the ones on the same boat!โ
โReally?? But your feelings for the Night Prince have already made you turn your back on our original agreement! Qingwu was already ready to give up her life for me, how could she betray me?โ
If it wasnโt for the fact that he still needed her help to ascend to the throne, he wouldโve kick her out a long time ago!
โShe wouldnโt betray you?โ Ye Ji said incredulously, โExactly what kind of drug did she give you? You actually still believe her?!โ
โSo what if I believe her?โ Xiahou Qingโs face darkened. โYe Ji, in the future, our cooperation is one matter but what I want to do, is another. If I hear another word from you insulting Lou Qingwu, then โฆ donโt blame me for being heartless.โ
The killing intent in Xiahou Qingโs eyes made Ye Jiโs heart stutter, her lips trembled as she forced herself to calm down.
She really underestimated LQW, to so easily change Xiahou Qingโs mind with only a few words!
โThird prince, donโt be angry. I was just suspicious, thatโs all. But if Lou Qingwu wonโt betray you, then I wonโt say anything.โ She forced herself to keep down the anger from the slap as she forced a smile on her face.
Xiahou Qing didnโt even want to take ย another look at her, โGo away then, donโt appear in front of me in the next two days!โJust seeing her reminded him that he had hurt Lou Qingwu.
โ... I know.โ Ye Ji lowered her eyes, angrily biting down on her lips.
That Lou Qingwu really was a scourge, if she didnโt get rid of Lou Qingwu, she definitely wouldnโt give up!
At the same time in the Leaning Wind Pavilion, Thousand Face had received news and come back to report.
His face was cocky.
โMaster, you didnโt see how lofty and proud that Ye Ji was when she walked into the third princeโs study. But when she walked out, half of her face was swollen. It seems like this time, the third prince wonโt believe her so easily any more.โ
โEn, but continue surveillance on Ye Ji, she wonโt give up so easily.โ Accotding to Xiahou Qingโs personality, he doesnโt believe anyone except for himself.
So as long as he believed in her, this was all worth it.
In the future, no matter what Ye Ji would say, heโd at least have to think twice.
If Ye Ji was a bit smarter, sheโd stop now or otherwise, with a few more times, Xiahou Qing would probably start being suspicious of her intentions.
He could probably even kill her.
He wouldnโt leave anyone that he didnโt trust by his side.
โYes!โ Thousand Face received his orders, โBut master, do you still want to go to the Night Princeโs side?โ
โThereโs no need.โ Feng Yege has probably woken up by this time.
He was a doctor himself so there shouldnโt be any more problems.
Thousand Face sounded his agreement before turning around to leave.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something as he turned around and leaned in closer to her, โMaster, these few days, there have been rumours about a Xiliang country ambassador coming over to Dongyu country. They should arrive soon, should we investigate their motives?โ
โNo need to investigate, theyโre here to create a marriage alliance.โ
In the last lifetime, Xiliang country had sent over people too.
On the surface, they were here for a marriage alliance but actually, they were here for a strong alliance against a common enemy.
Dongyu country and Xiliang country are neighbours with a common border.
At around this time in the last lifetime, the Man clan began to recklessly invade Xiliang country.
The Man clan had spent the last ten years subordinate to Xiliang country but that was only when the Man clan king Chunyu Lie was alive.
Three months ago, Chunyu Lie had died and his eldest son and prince, Chunyu Han had ascended the throne as the Man clan king.
He had killed a lot of his enemies and people who disagreed with him.
He was bloodthirsty, craving war but also a good strategist.
He didnโt want to be subordinate to Xiliang country any mor eso he began to encroach on their borders, hoping to snatch back their sovereignty.
Xiliang countryโs rule was then scared that Dongyu country and the Man clan would hatch an alliance, so he decided to strike first.

TL note: ย
Xiliang country, here for a marriage.
Who wants to take bets on who Xiliangโs ideal marriage target is?
