Qi Jingxi gave a thumbs up: "Sis, I believe you. But..."

He lowered his voice: "Don't say that again, it's too scary."

"Why?" Qi Zhiyu asked, puzzled.

"Grandfather won't pursue this matter, but if others hear about it, they'll make a fuss about it," Qi Jingxi replied instinctively.

"And then?" Qi Zhiyu asked, raising an eyebrow.

"And then..." Qi Jingxi hesitated, then stammered, "...Actually, it's nothing. Just say what you want to say."

Who would dare to make a fuss about this?

He felt that all the civil and military officials in the court were frightened by his sister, and no one would be so foolish as to commit suicide.

"Grandfather loves us dearly." Qi Jingxi was very happy about this.

Although they were royalty, the Emperor's grandfather felt more of a familial bond with them.

Qi Zhiyu stood up: "Of course. Grandfather was a wise ruler, wasn't he, Grandfather?"

Qi Jingxi was so shocked that she jumped up.

Grandfather?

where?

Emperor Kangwu walked into the courtyard with a smile: "Chen'an, you really can hide anything from me."

(Please remember the website 202s.tw for the fastest chapter updates.)

Although Qi Jingxi was surprised by Emperor Kangwu's sudden arrival, she quickly replied, "Grandfather, my sister's martial arts are so high, she can naturally hear whether someone is close or not."

Emperor Kangwu snorted: "Is that what I meant?"

Qi Jingxi was stunned. What did the Emperor Grandfather mean?

Following behind Emperor Kangwu, Prince Xin glanced helplessly at his elder brother beside him. In the two years he had been away from the capital, even his father's skin had become increasingly thick.

Suddenly, I feel that many people around me have broken free from some kind of constraint and started to show their true nature without caring about worldly opinions.

"What my grandfather meant was that he was a wise ruler," Qi Zhiyu explained to her second brother.

Qi Jingxi's eyes widened in shock, but fortunately, he was still smart when he needed to be.

I didn't say what was on my mind.

"That's truly shameless," Qi Zhiyu said directly. "Otherwise, we wouldn't have been born, like our father and me."

"How could any member of the royal family who survived be purely good?"

King Xin: "..."

It's still his eldest niece, Yong.

They dare to say anything.

Back then, his older brother was also outspoken, but he would get beaten up after speaking.

After his eldest niece finished speaking, his father not only showed no intention of hitting her, but instead laughed heartily and looked very pleased.

It's... hard to say.

Could this be a case of grandparents showing special affection for their grandchildren?

"Well said!" Emperor Kangwu laughed heartily.

Prince Rui raised his hand, and all the servants in the courtyard withdrew.

Emperor Kangwu walked over and sat down: "Chen'an, I heard from your father that you want to annex Northern Dian and the Qi Kingdom?"

Qi Zhiyu smiled: "Isn't it just me who thinks that way?"

"Of course I'd love to," Emperor Kangwu said with a smile. "That's why your father came to me, and we've had a good discussion about it these past two days."

"How likely do you think it is that the fourth prince will betray his country?"

Qi Jingxi: "..."

No, is the topic jumping around like this?

"Probably eighty percent," Qi Zhiyu said. "Isn't Qi Jinghong's future father-in-law a powerful military figure?"

Qi Zhiyu casually traced a line on the table with her finger: "If the Qi Kingdom of Northern Dian and the Great Rui Kingdom were to fight, the King of Wu's relative by marriage would either take advantage of the resistance or the chaos to escape with the King of Wu."

It is determined by the country's geographical location.

The Qi Kingdom and the Northern Dian Kingdom did not surround the Great Rui Kingdom, so there were always many places where the King of Wu could leave.

"Tell me, what if I imprison the King of Wu, or... what?" Emperor Kangwu asked.

He can have a good-for-nothing son, but the Qi family absolutely cannot have a traitorous prince, and the Da Rui family absolutely cannot have a traitorous prince!

Qi Zhiyu laughed: "We could try sending someone to assassinate the King of Wu."

"In time, you will know what it means to be a favorite of Heaven."

Qi Jingxi was stunned. Prince Xin opened his mouth, and then Qi Zhiyu heard two slaps.

Qi Jingxi and Prince Xin both covered the back of their heads at the same time, while Prince Rui and Emperor Kangwu naturally withdrew their hands.

The father beats his own second son.

Qi Zhiyu blinked twice. This scene... was both a little strange and funny at the same time?

"Don't say things you shouldn't say!" Prince Rui scolded Qi Jingxi.

"You're such a grown man, don't you even have a sense of awe?" Emperor Kangwu glared at Prince Xin.

Qi Jingxi and Prince Xin both shrank their necks at the same time.

Qi Zhiyu couldn't help but chuckle.

Second brother, second uncle... it's all from the same lineage!

Also.

Ordinary people should still have some reverence for the laws of nature.

Otherwise, who knows if Heaven might be petty and try to trip them up?

"Actually, let's look at it another way," Qi Zhiyu said with a smile. "The King of Wu certainly won't be fighting alone after leaving."

"He always needs to form alliances. If other countries support him, won't we then have a reason to go to war?"

"We were forced to retaliate, we had no choice but to seize their territory. We...we were just trying to protect ourselves!"

King Xin: "!!!"

The most shameless person turned out to be his eldest niece!

Qi Zhiyu certainly knew where Emperor Kangwu's anger lay.

"The Qi family has produced a traitorous and unfilial descendant, but we can expand the Qi family's land and add more members to the family. I believe that will appease our ancestors," Qi Zhiyu said.

"Disobedient descendants can be dealt with in the end, but real benefits... and the expansion of the family are more important."

Emperor Kangwu laughed heartily upon hearing this: "Chen'an is indeed quick-witted."

"I was being stubborn."

The traitor was the fourth son.

However, it's good that he turned this embarrassing thing into a good thing.

"Chen'an, tell me the details of what happened next," Emperor Kangwu said with a smile. "Your father and the others aren't very bright, so I'll only feel at ease if you tell me."

Qi Zhiyu frowned, her expression extremely resentful: "Such a trivial matter..."

King Xin: "..."

Attacking and annexing Northern Dian and Qi Kingdom is a minor matter.

Unifying the world is a small matter?

Is it that he has a problem understanding "trivial matters," or has the word been reinterpreted and redefined in the capital during his two years at the border?

"As you know, your father and your second uncle aren't very bright. Tell me about it," Emperor Kangwu said with a smile.

Prince Xin, who has been constantly being pulled into analyzing the situation and formulating plans for the past two days: "..."

He's not very bright, what's the point of discussing this with him?

Of course, he only dared to complain in his heart and didn't dare to say it out loud.

"Alright then." Qi Zhiyu sighed.

Even the Emperor's grandfather made a special trip out of the palace to find her.

We're all family, so let it go...

"Actually, there are a few options..." Qi Zhiyu said.

King Xin: "..."

several?

He suddenly had a sense of familiarity.

When he was at the border, his eldest niece also gave him several possible directions and how to devise a strategy to break the deadlock.

This time...are you coming again?
