The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

Prince Ning scoffed, "What's there to be afraid of?"

"My father will do everything in his power to bring me back!"

Qi Yanhe: "..."

He couldn't guarantee that his elder brother would go to any lengths to achieve his goals...

wrong.

Qi Yan smiled bitterly; he wasn't that important in his elder brother's eyes.

Qi Yanhe knew that an alliance with Prince Ning was impossible.

He could only return disappointed and sit in a chair trying to think of a solution.

In another room, Prince Ning clutched his chest. The thick bandage and the pain that made his breathing feel like it was being pulled apart left him feeling utterly helpless.

He even ran with Qi Yanhe.

Even if Qi Yanhe were reliable, he wouldn't be able to escape.

Princess Chen'an is truly ruthless.

That sword pierced him without warning, going right through him.

However, her kung fu skills were truly remarkable.

The sword pierced his chest, yet managed to avoid all vital organs; he did not die.

This little princess... is interesting.

The letter that Qi Yan wrote to the King of Qi was naturally delivered to him by the King of Xin.

The distance is far, so it will take some time.

He, on the other hand, governed Yanyun City well.

That is to say, Qi Yan and the others were imprisoned. Otherwise, if Qi Yan had seen everything that Prince Xin had done, he would have known that no matter whether his elder brother agreed to exchange Yan Yun City for a large sum of money or not, this city would only belong to Da Rui in the future.

It has absolutely nothing to do with their Qi Kingdom anymore.

Qi Zhiyu lay lazily on the couch, eating fruit peeled by her maid, watching Prince Xin enter from outside.

She slightly raised her hand to greet Prince Xin.

Prince Xin didn't care at all and went over to sit down: "My dear niece, things in the city are almost settled."

"Hmm." Qi Zhiyu wasn't interested at all. "The Qi Kingdom envoy is arriving soon, isn't he?"

"It will be soon," Prince Xin nodded.

A tough battle is about to begin.

"Then get ready," Qi Zhiyu instructed.

"Don't worry, I have already..." Prince Xin was confident that he would not make any mistakes in such an important matter.

"The convoy transporting the silver and supplies is all ready. Once I get the goods, I'll head back to the capital," Qi Zhiyu said leisurely.

She's been away from home for so long, and she misses home.

After Qi Zhiyu finished speaking, she suddenly realized that Prince Xin was frozen in place.

Qi Zhiyu asked in confusion, "Uncle, what's wrong?"

"Do you think the envoy from Qi would willingly send over the apology gifts?" Prince Xin asked tentatively.

There must be no disputes or buck-passing involved.

Qi Zhiyu laughed: "Arguing?"

"Uncle, why are you arguing with a dead man?"

Prince Xin: "...A dead person?"

"My dear niece, killing every envoy that comes is not right... Are you planning to attack again?"

Prince Xin understood Qi Zhiyu's meaning halfway through his sentence.

Qi Zhiyu sneered, "We saved an entire city's population, and they show no gratitude. They treat us like watchdogs. Such humiliation is unbearable for our Great Rui!"

"If they come and don't obediently offer their gifts, kill them all!"

"After the slaughter, reorganize the troops and attack directly!"

"The majesty of the Great Rui is inviolable!"

King Xin: "..."

"The reason is quite valid."

Actually, he always thought he was quite assertive.

However, compared to his eldest niece... he was ultimately too cowardly.

"When the envoy from Qi comes, my dear niece, will you... talk to him?" Prince Xin asked hesitantly.

Whether it's negotiation or killing... it all depends on how clever that envoy is.

"I've already written to your grandfather about the situation here and sent it over by express mail," Prince Xin said. "Your grandfather hasn't replied yet, but it should be in the next day or two."

After all, it was a negotiation with the Qi Kingdom, which involved a city. No matter what, it had to be reported to his father, the emperor.

"Oh," Qi Zhiyu replied casually, seemingly unconcerned.

"Your Highness." A maidservant entered, bowed, and announced that a guard was requesting an audience.

This is the princess's courtyard; outside men are not allowed to enter without permission.

Even when Prince Xin came in, he would have his maid announce his arrival.

Even as an imperial uncle, he had to follow the rules when entering his niece's courtyard.

Prince Xin looked at Qi Zhiyu, who waved her hand.

Only then did Prince Xin allow the guards to enter.

The guard came in, took out the letter, and presented it with both hands.

After Prince Xin accepted it, the guard bowed and withdrew.

Prince Xin laughed heartily: "I was just talking about your imperial grandfather, what a coincidence, your imperial grandfather's reply has just arrived."

I wonder what his father will say.

What are Father Emperor's opinions on how they handled things here...?

Prince Xin's gaze was fixed on the open letter.

Qi Zhiyu looked at Prince Xin, who had frozen in place again, and felt a little suspicious.

The Imperial Uncle's temperament is rather unsteady.

"My dear niece, don't you want to know what your imperial grandfather wrote?" Prince Xin asked.

Qi Zhiyu said indifferently, "Not interested."

She did whatever her grandfather said.

What's the point?

Prince Xin folded the letter and put it away, saying, "I'll have to trouble you again when the envoy arrives."

"Making money is no trouble for me," Qi Zhiyu said with a slight smile.

She likes to rummage through her own house.

It was the same in the original world.

She doesn't let any kind of resource slip by.

She thinks her habit is fine.

Prince Xin lowered his eyes, smiled, and got up to leave.

When he returned to his study, Prince Xin took out Emperor Kangwu's reply again.

At the same time, the letter that Prince Rui had given him was displayed.

His elder brother's letters and his father's letters were placed side by side on his desk.

His elder brother gave him more instructions, but his father's letter contained only one sentence: "Listen to my granddaughter!"

The Emperor and my elder brother really share the same thoughts.

It seems that he really missed a lot of good shows while he was away from the capital.

Fortunately, he will be going back soon.

The capital city is much more lively!

Sure enough, a few days later, people from the Qi Kingdom arrived.

King Xin came to see Qi Zhiyu and told her some news: "The King of Qi is taking this negotiation very seriously."

Qi Zhiyu chuckled and corrected, "Uncle, there is no negotiation."

Prince Xin was taken aback for a moment, then realized, "Yes, they're sending us a gift of thanks!"

As for returning Yanyun City?

There's no room for negotiation!

"The people from Qi who came this time are quite astute in assessing the situation," said Prince Xin. "They are important ministers from Qi."

His eldest niece has really screwed over the Qi State, and it's gotten to the point where the Qi State's ruler is furious.

"Greetings, esteemed minister!" Qi Zhiyu exclaimed happily. "I love reasoning with people!"

Prince Xin paused, looking incredulously at Qi Zhiyu, who spoke with utmost sincerity.

My niece... is she serious?

To be honest... those three words, and my niece...

Well... actually, his eldest niece is reasonable, but her way of being reasonable is a bit hard to explain.

"Come on, let's not keep them waiting too long," Qi Zhiyu said happily to Prince Xin.

As Prince Xin watched Qi Zhiyu's light and cheerful steps, he inexplicably felt a little sorry for the envoy from Qi Kingdom.
