Chapter 262 So the Prince of South Vietnam is determined to get Little 4?
A crisis that can make them so nervous is probably not an ordinary thing.
The Crown Prince of Nanyue, the Second Prince of Beichu, and the First Prince of Xidi had all come, and they all came to greet Song Yunxi, which made the Sixth Prince's party quite jealous, and Concubine Shen was also very angry.
Ever since Ye Xuanqi hooked up with Song Yunxi, not only has he been valued by Emperor Qinglong and has control over the cabinet, but even the Queen has also been valued by Emperor Qinglong and has control over the harem.
This has already made Concubine Shen very worried, and another move by Emperor Qinglong at today's welcome banquet further sent out the signal that he wants to make use of Ye Xuanqi.
General Qin and his son, who had been excluded from the court and lived as invisible men in the capital for many years, reappeared at the palace banquet more than ten years later and appeared in everyone's sight again.
Song Yunxi, all this is because of Song Yunxi!
So Concubine Shen became more and more annoyed with Song Muxue. If she hadn't seduced Shen Zhikang, he would not have cancelled the engagement with Song Yunxi. Now, everything should have belonged to the Shen family and to them, mother and son.
If Song Yunxi had been there to help, her son would have been made the crown prince long ago. Why would she have to devote so much effort to planning for him?
Ye Ruyan looked at how she was being treated like a star and how the princes and dukes of various countries, who were all very noble, were trying their best to please her. Ye Ruyan, who had always been proud of her status, was so angry that her teeth were itching.
Especially when he thought about how he was punished by his father because of Song Yunxi, he hated her even more.
"Aunt, are you just going to watch him act so arrogantly? If you continue like this, the threat that Fourth Brother poses to Sixth Brother will become greater and greater."
The Empress has always seldom interacted with members of the royal family, and for many years she had not cared about the affairs of the palace. Therefore, Ye Ruyan, who had been raised by the Empress Dowager for several years when she was young, was close to Concubine Shen. She also knew that Concubine Shen was the most beloved concubine of Emperor Qinglong, so she always called her aunt.
Although it was against the rules of her status, Ye Ruyan never realized that it was inappropriate because no one had ever corrected her.
How could she not know what Concubine Shen was talking about? And with the relationship between Qin Xubai, Ye Xuanqi and Song Yunxi, the relationship between the Imperial Master's Mansion and Ye Xuanqi is now more solid and stable, and it is extremely difficult to separate them.
Song Muxue on the side ignored the intimidating look from Concubine Shen and faced the challenge head-on. No one knew what she said, but Concubine Shen and Ye Ruyan both laughed.
Song Yunxi saw all this, and the sense of crisis in her heart became even stronger.
"Song Muxue must be planning something, and it must be targeting me."
Yu Ziche stroked her long hair gently: "No matter what she is planning, we will not let anything happen to you!"
But Song Yunxi warned him seriously: "Second brother, no matter what happens, you must ensure your own safety first."
This time she had a bad premonition, and the feeling of being in crisis and powerless from her previous life came back to her.
Even if fate makes it impossible for her to escape, she will never implicate any of them this time.
Jiang Yanting, who was ordered to enter the palace, saw the eldest princess and said in a cold voice: "Her father is ill and bedridden, but she still has the mind to dress up and attend the palace banquet. I don't know whether to say she is big-hearted or conscienceless."
Ye Xuanqi's eyes revealed murderous intent: "The emperor's uncle was already weak, and he was so angry this time. In addition, the queen mother defended this granddaughter without any principles. Envoy Tang said that the emperor's uncle was so angry that he might lose a few years of his life."
Yu Ziche was also a little curious: "I really want to know who is more important to the Queen Mother, her only biological son or her only biological granddaughter."
Ye Xuanqi said calmly: "The Queen Mother doesn't seem to care much about the Emperor's uncle..."
For the Queen Mother, who gave birth to Prince Yu when she was struggling to survive in the harem, this son was not a support for her, but an increased risk of crisis.
And this is exactly the case. The empress dowager, who used to be an invisible person in the palace, has become more cautious after having this son, but dangers still continue to come to her.
Therefore, she, Prince Yu, was more complaining, and there was really not much affection between mother and son.
But Princess Changle was different. This granddaughter was something she had been waiting for very hard after her position as empress dowager was consolidated and her life was no longer under any threat.
Moreover, Princess Changle had been carefully raised by the Queen Mother for many years, so the relationship between the grandmother and the granddaughter was naturally deep and there was no comparison at all.
Song Yunxi never expected that Prince Yu was not only frail and sickly, but he had never even received real care from his own mother.
"It seems that Prince Yu is really pitiful."
No wonder Prince Yu couldn't discipline Princess Changle. No one could do it!
Ye Xuanqi leaned close to Song Yunxi and asked in a low voice: "Did those princes find anything wrong?"
Song Yunxi certainly could not hide their actions these days, and Ye Xuanqi had no intention of hiding it from her.
Seeing him asking her, Song Yunxi was stunned for a moment: "I haven't noticed anything wrong, but..."
Song Yunxi paused here.
Ye Xuanqi followed her line of sight and bumped into the Crown Prince of Nanyue, who had a flattering smile on his face.
Song Yunxi just politely nodded to the Crown Prince of Nanyue and then retracted her gaze: "I don't know why this Crown Prince of Nanyue always makes me feel uncomfortable."
"Then there must be something wrong with him!"
Song Yunxi was surprised by his decisiveness: "I just have a feeling, and I have no evidence."
"Your feeling is enough, no evidence is needed."
Although it was just a feeling of Song Yunxi, Ye Xuanqi never ignored it. In his opinion, Song Yunxi was very sensitive. The person who could make her have such a feeling must be dangerous.
He believed Song Yunxi, no matter what she said or her thoughts and judgments, and did not need any evidence.
This made Song Yunxi feel that indescribable warmth surge up again.
Ye Xuanqi turned around and said to Qin Xubai and the others, "My spies in Nanyue sent back news that the reason why the Crown Prince of Nanyue risked his life to come to Jin'an this time was for Yunxi."
Yu Ziche's face was full of frost: "Does he deserve it?"
Ye Xuanqi continued, "But I have been keeping an eye on him these past few days. The Prince of Nanyue has been staying at the inn and has not come out. He is very obedient and looks like he is just here to pay tribute."
Jiang Yanting snorted coldly: "Do you believe he can be so honest?"
He also has business in South Vietnam, and having stayed there for a long time, he has some understanding of the country.
The Prince of Nanyue is a ruthless character who will do anything to achieve his goals. Being honest and upright is not his true character at all.
Qin Xubai raised his eyes and looked at Ye Xuanqi: "So the Crown Prince of Nanyue is determined to get Xiao Si?"
Although it was a question, Qin Xubai's attitude was firm.
Ye Xuanqi nodded: "If you are not completely confident, then you have already made all the arrangements."
Qin Xubai's expression became more serious: "South Vietnam's most powerful weapons are poison and... witchcraft!"
