The most romantic little emperor

Chapter 690 Change of Face

Fan Xuemei, with her carefree personality, was a match for Yelu Jiner. She sneered, "Who did I think you were? So you're the Princess of Liao! You've had enough of running wild on the grasslands, and now you're trying to do more in my Great Xia Palace?"

Seeing the two of them arguing like Mars colliding with the Earth, Qin Hao immediately fell out. He slammed the table and said in feigned anger, "Have you two had enough of this? Do you still have me, the emperor, in your eyes?"

Seeing that Qin Hao was angry, the two women snorted coldly and then remained silent, ignoring each other.

Qin Hao suddenly felt overwhelmed. Both women were his women, and they were all his flesh and blood. He couldn't favor one over the other!

After thinking for a moment, his eyes lit up and he said calmly, "Yelü Jin'er, this is Miss Fan Xuemei. Her father is the Minister of Justice."

"You should have heard that at this morning's court, a minister slandered you as a Liao spy, attempting to sow discord between you and me. This matter will be directly handled by the Ministry of Justice. Do you understand what I mean?"

As the child of a Liao royal family and nobles, Yelu Jin'er had been influenced by Qin Hao's thoughts and would understand him.

Her eyes rolled around, and she smiled brightly, saying, "Oh! Who was it? It turns out to be Sister Xuemei!"

"These past few days, the Queen has been talking about you in front of me, saying that your skin is as white and tender as snow. Seeing you today, it's really as good as her reputation. I'm so envious. Come on, let me see it!"

As she spoke, she took the initiative to hold Fan Xuemei's hand, very kindly.

Seeing Yelu Jin'er actively showing her affection, Fan Xuemei couldn't stop smiling. She quickly praised, "Sister Jin'er's eyes are so beautiful! They sparkle like sapphires. No wonder His Majesty is so captivated by them!"

Yelu Jin'er's eyes narrowed at Fan Xuemei's praise. She took off the jade bracelet on her hand and put it directly on Fan Xuemei's hand, praising her: "Sister Xuemei has such a sweet mouth. From now on, we will be good sisters."

"This is an emerald bracelet given to me by my aunt, the Queen. It looks really beautiful on your hand, so I'm giving it to my sister."

Seeing that Yelu Jin'er gave her such an expensive gift on their first meeting, Fan Xuemei quickly refused, "Sister Princess, this thing is too expensive. I..."

Yelu Jin'er interrupted her and pretended to be displeased, saying, "This is a gift from my sister. Just take it. If you keep trying to refuse, I'll be angry."

Yelu Jin'er looked at the bracelet on her wrist. It was smooth in color and had a soft texture. She liked it very much. Seeing that it was difficult to refuse, she gladly accepted it. "Sister Jin'er, I just brought some of the most famous desserts in the capital from outside the palace. Let's taste them together later."

As she spoke, she looked at Qin Hao and showed off the jade bracelet on her wrist. She said happily, "Your Majesty, does it look good?"

Qin Hao saw that the two girls almost came to blows when they first met, but in just a moment, they became as good as sisters. The speed at which their expressions changed was really eye-opening for him.

He nodded without hesitation and praised her generously, "This is more than just beautiful, it's a perfect match! It sets off your snow-white skin even more perfectly."

"I was just thinking that you seemed to be missing something, and it turns out it was a bracelet!"

"Jin'er really has a keen eye, and the gift she gave is truly wonderful."

As soon as these words were spoken, the two women immediately smiled.

Yelu Jin'er was even more bold and took Fan Xuemei's hand, and sat on Qin Hao's legs, one on the left and one on the right, allowing him to enjoy the blessing of having two wives.

As soft as his own arms, hugged on both sides, how could Qin Hao remain indifferent? Kissing this, touching that, is there anything more pleasurable than this in the world...

At first, Fan Xuemei was a little embarrassed, feeling that she couldn't relax because of the presence of an outsider like Yelu Jiner.

However, under the influence of Yelu Jiner, he soon became addicted and could not extricate himself.

Just as the three of them were enjoying themselves, the guards outside the door reported: "Your Majesty, Lord Guo has successfully arrived more than 20 miles outside the capital!"

Qin Hao was having a great time when he was suddenly interrupted. His interest was instantly ruined and he muttered to himself, "Master Guo, which Master Guo... Could it be that Guo Jia has returned?"

Thinking of this, he pushed the two women in his arms away, not caring whether they were happy or not, and hurried out.

"Your Majesty, you just promised me that you would go riding later?" Yelu Jin'er asked from behind.

"I have something to do now, let's make an appointment another day!" Qin Hao blurted out without having time to explain.

Seeing him in such a hurry to leave, Yelu Jin'er looked displeased and whispered to Fan Xuemei beside her, "Humph, when His Majesty was playing with our bodies, we agreed to anything, but once he had taken advantage of us, he turned around and forgot everything we had said before. It really pissed me off!"

Fan Xuemei covered her mouth and patiently explained, "Sister Jin'er, please don't spread this around. Mr. Guo is Sister Xuanxuan's father. If she knew, she would definitely be unhappy."

"I was just saying that. We'll have to deal with this kind of situation in the future where there are too many people and too little food. It's wishful thinking to want him to accompany us alone."

"Sister Jin'er, just be content! His Majesty is the emperor of the entire world. It's difficult for others to see him, and we sisters are so lucky to have him by our side."

"I just heard him say that Lord Guo is coming back. Why don't we go tell Sister Xuanxuan the good news?"

"Okay! That's exactly what I was thinking. I haven't seen her in a long time, along with the other sisters. We can just eat these desserts ourselves and not leave them for someone else, humph!"

……

Qin Hao didn't know that the two women were plotting against him behind his back. If he knew, he would definitely spank them.

When he walked out of the imperial study and learned the details of the situation, he smiled faintly and said, "Well, very good. I guess it's time for Lord Guo to go into the city now!"

"Luo Yang, arrange troops immediately. I want to welcome them personally!"

Luo Yang had just prepared the carriage when another imperial guard came in a panic, reporting, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"

"The latest news is that Lord Guo's convoy was suddenly attacked by a large number of unidentified individuals outside the city. Rescue teams have been dispatched, and Lord Guo's fate is currently uncertain!"

Qin Hao was immediately furious when he heard this. He pointed at the guard who came to report and said with gritted teeth, "Go, immediately send the best imperial physician in the palace to treat him. Oh, and call Dr. Sun as well."

"If anything were to happen to Lord Guo, then no one would have to report to me. Just find a crooked tree and hang yourself."

The imperial guard was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly said, "Yes, yes, I'll make the arrangements right away."

Elder Feng stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, please be patient. Lord Guo is a man of good fortune and will be fine."

Qin Hao gradually regained his composure. He sighed and said, "I hope so! I wonder what evidence Guo Aiqing has on those noble families that has made them so rampant that they're willing to pursue him all the way to the capital. They're truly audacious."

"Moreover, Guo Jia's convoy was attacked. This matter is not so simple. There must be a big fish behind it!"

Elder Feng asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, do you suspect that the old prince is behind this?"

Qin Hao nodded and said worriedly, "Let's go! Let's go take a look. I'm a little worried!"

……

At this moment, on the official road leading to the capital, corpses were lying on the spot. These were the 500 elite guards that Qin Hao had sent to Guo Jia.

Originally, after returning from the disaster relief mission in Hedong, these young soldiers should have returned to the capital in glory and received rewards from His Majesty. However, they were now being chased by bandits all the way, with some killed and others injured.

Guo Jia's old body was disheveled in the wind. He knelt down involuntarily, crying bitterly, "I am sorry for you!"

"It's only twenty miles, just twenty miles. I brought you out, but I can't bring you home! It's all my fault!"

As he spoke, he beat his chest frantically with his fists to vent his pain and regret!

The remaining dozen or so guards immediately surrounded Guo Jia and vowed to protect him to the death.

One of the leading imperial guards remained relatively calm. He shouted, "Lord Guo, now is not the time to grieve. We have fought our way out for you. Please allow His Majesty to avenge us!"

Hearing this, Guo Jia stopped crying and roared like an old lion, "You damned bastards, you have no respect for the law! I will catch you all and grind you to dust!"
