"What? You don't seem to welcome this king and this king's princess?”Xiefeng Ming's back was facing Shangguan Langqu and the others, and his tone was filled with dissatisfaction.
"What are you saying, Jiu Wangye? How dare I? I hope that my daughter and son-in-law won't have time to say that they're not welcome.”Shangguan Langqiu was implying that so what if you are the Ninth Prince, you are still my son-in-law. What arrogance.
These words were spoken with a high standard. It not only showed that he did not welcome him, but also showed that he was an elder and he was a junior. So what if he was a prince? It made people not flare up even if they understood.
"Ha!" "Then why isn't anyone leading the way for me and my consort?" Xiefeng Ming sneered. Is this the courtesy of a host?" Xiefeng Ming didn't care about Shangguan Langqiu's intentions at all. He directly told Shangguan Langqiu that he was the guest and he was the host!
"Hehe, no, no, Jiu Wangye misunderstood. This old man was too excited. Seeing my daughter, this old man was so happy that I forgot everything.”Shangguan Langqiu hurriedly walked over to Xiefeng Ming and bent down slightly, gesturing for him to do so. He couldn't help but wonder why his silly daughter was so favored. A fool who looked so beautiful that it could topple a country was just a fool. How could this be? He really couldn't understand.
"You should be happy, but don't forget to be a host! Benwang and wangfei are very tired!”Xiefeng Ming carried Shangguan Xinyi on his back, and Shangguan Xinyi, who was on his back, was very cooperative. She actually fell asleep on Xiefeng Ming's body in such a short time…
"Yes, yes, yes! This old man will arrange a place for the Ninth Prince and the Ninth Princess Consort to rest. The two of them must be tired from the journey.”Shangguan Langqiu said with a smile, but he was looking down on Jiu Wangye for a long time. There was no other reason. Nonsense! The distance between the Shangguan family and the Ninth Prince's Mansion was only six hours. How could he be so tired? He had already shouted to rest as soon as he arrived!
"There is no need to trouble father-in-law. Just arrange for this king and wangfei to stay in the courtyard where wangfei used to live.”Xiefeng Ming said this because he wanted to see what Shangguan Xinyi's residence, which was inferior to a servant's, looked like.
"I'm afraid this isn't very appropriate. His highness and wangfei are extremely wealthy, how can we not make some arrangements?”Shangguan Langqiu revealed a distressed expression.
"There's no need. Benwang just wants to know what wangfei's boudoir looks like. I'll trouble father-in-law to lead the way.”Xiefeng Ming smiled and lifted the person on his back.
Seeing that he could not change Xiefeng Ming's mind, Shangguan Langqiu braced himself and went to the residence where Shangguan Xinyi had lived before she got married. He knew that this Ninth Wangye had information about his fifth daughter. Otherwise, why wouldn't he want to fool him? He couldn't figure out how his silly daughter could win the favor of this fierce god Jiu Wangye…He dismissed his family members as he walked. He was enough to lead the way himself. He was afraid that his family members would say something wrong and anger Jiu Wangye, which would be bad!
A moment later, a shabby courtyard appeared before Xiefeng Ming. The shabby chair had been worn down for at least ten years, and even so, it was still there. There was a stone table beside the chair. If it weren't for the broken teapot and teacups on it, one wouldn't have known that it was a stone table. The broken wooden door looked as if it would fall down with a light touch. Xiefeng Ming couldn't help but frown. He carried the person behind him and walked into the house. The floor of the house was uneven. It was no different from the outside of the house. It was covered with mud and nothing was used to cover it. The old dressing table in the house was almost torn apart, and the single bed was also dilapidated. How could this be a place for people to live? Even an old and deserted temple would be much better than this!
Xie Fengming did not say a word as he slowly walked to the bedside and sat down. He then carefully put Shangguan Xinyi, who was sleeping soundly on his back, at ease and gently covered her with the blanket. He then turned around and leaned against the bedside, looking at Shangguan Langqiu with a mischievous smile."You treat your daughter so well!"
"What are you talking about, wangye? This old master naturally has to treat my daughter well.”Shangguan Langqiu was so confident that he didn't seem to notice the sarcasm in Xiefeng Ming's words.
"Hehe, alright! Shangguan Langqiu, show this king what shamelessness is!”Xiefeng Ming smiled happily, as if he had encountered something happy. However, his smile did not reach his eyes.
"You're too polite, Ninth Wangye. This old man is far inferior to you!”Shangguan Langqiu was like a smiling tiger.
"That's still better than an old fox like you! Shangguan Langqiu better keep your tail! Don't let this king catch you, or else…haha…you know the consequences!”The reason why he said that was because of what he had done in the martial arts world!
"Thank you, Your Highness! Your Highness really makes this old man admire you very much. The younger generation is truly formidable! Your Highness is only nineteen years old this year, but you've already reached such a realm. This old man can't help but admire your methods!”Shangguan Langqiu narrowed his eyes, his handsome face had long since turned deep with the passage of time, and one could clearly see the traces of time around his eyes. The middle-aged him had changed drastically compared to his past self!
"Villa Head Shangguan, you are too modest. Compared to you, I am still far from being able to do so. As the saying goes, a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs, but you are really good to your daughter. Not only did you allow your wife to help the tiger to force your little daughter into a lunatic, but you also ruthlessly sent her to this king's hands. You know that the person in this king's hands will either die or be crippled, but you still did this. If you can be so ruthless to your own daughter, what else is there that you, Shangguan Langqiu, can't do?”Xiefeng Ming didn't mention anything about Shangguan Xinyi being poisoned by the heart-devouring poison, so he felt that something was amiss!
Shangguan Langqiu was about to say something when the person on the bed interrupted him."Big brother! I miss Ting 'er! I want Ting 'er! Big brother doesn't keep his word!" Shangguan Xinyi pouted as she got up from the bed and tugged at Xiefeng Ming's sleeve,
"When has this king ever gone back on his word? If wangfei wants to see Ting 'er, you have to ask your father!”Xiefeng Ming turned around and stretched out his finger to tap Shangguan Xinyi's nose.
" Xinyi doesn't care, Xinyi wants Ting 'er, wah…" Shangguan Xinyi pulled Xiefeng Ming and burst into tears…How could Shangguan Xinyi be willing to call her father? Even if she was really stupid, she wouldn't ask her father to torture her to get her back!
"Alright, stop crying. You're so ugly!”Xiefeng Ming patiently wiped the tears off Shangguan Xinyi's face, then turned his back to Shangguan Langqiu and said,""Manor Lord Shangguan, please call Ting 'er, who served the princess, over. This king's princess misses her very much!”
Shangguan Langqiu hesitated for a moment. He pondered for a moment before a look of understanding appeared on his face. He then frowned,"I'm sorry to disappoint Jiu Wangye. Ever since Ting 'er sent the princess off, she fell ill and couldn't stand up. Last night, she was already smoking. When the servants found her, her body was already stiff, so they hastily buried her!”
"Dead? Where are they buried?" Xiefeng Ming asked calmly. When he heard Shangguan Langqiu say that Ting 'er was dying of a serious illness, he saw the change in Shangguan Xinyi's expression. Just this change was enough to prove that she was pretending to be crazy! Hehe, his princess finally revealed a flaw? It really wasn't easy!
"Buried in a barren mountain a thousand miles to the east!”Shangguan Langqiu said.
"A thousand miles away? Hehe, that's far enough! Why would a maidservant be buried thousands of miles away?”Xiefeng Ming did not turn his head. His tone was indifferent, and his eyes seemed to be calm. However, his eyes never left Shangguan Xinyi's face, afraid that he would miss the slightest change in her.
As expected…
When Shangguan Xinyi heard Shangxie Fengming ask this question, there was a slight change. Her eyes were no longer as silly as before. Her eyes were filled with vitality and hatred, but they disappeared in a flash. Then, she returned to her silly state.
"Hehe, it's not strange that a maidservant died, but this old man was afraid that she had contracted some infectious plague, so he ordered people to bury her far away! Does Your Highness have any other questions?" There was actually a hint of amusement in Shangguan Langqiu's words. He was obviously saying that a servant girl's life was cheap, why would a noble prince like her ask such a question!
Shangguan Xinyi couldn't stand Shangguan Langqiu's words anymore. She hit her husband with her hands, looking like she was crazy."Wuwuwu…I want Ting Er! Big brother, go find Ting Er for me…sob…Ting Er…"
Xiefeng Ming felt the little fists of the crazy person in front of his chest like raindrops, as if they were tickling him." Be good…Don't cry…" He allowed this little woman's fist to run wild in front of his chest. He knew that if he didn't let her vent the frustration in her heart like this, she might really go crazy! He did not want her to really go crazy! He hadn't thought about it enough yet. How could he allow her to really go crazy? He finally realized that this little woman was pretending to be crazy. He had not figured out how he could let her go crazy and let her benefit? He had never been a good person, so he would not do such a good thing to free her!
Shangguan Langqiu frowned when he saw Xiefeng Ming letting his little daughter go."The Ninth Prince dotes on the princess so much that it makes others envious!”
"Villa lord Shangguan must be joking. This king's princess naturally needs this king to pamper her. Why does father-in-law want this king to abuse your daughter?”Xiefeng Ming first changed from a manor master to a father-in-law, and his sarcasm was obvious."Hehe, this king is tired, so I won't keep father-in-law!”Ming Xiefeng emphasized the words "father-in-law".
"In that case, this old master will not disturb wangye and wangfei.”Shangguan Langqiu clasped his fist slightly, before turning and leaving.
Shangguan Xinyi, who was in Xiefeng Ming's arms, was still mad. Not only did she punch him in the chest, but she also used her mouth…
" Rip!" Xiefeng Ming gasped in pain.
Shangguan Xinyi bit down hard on Xiefeng Ming's shoulder when he was caught off guard!
"Shangguan Xinyi, that's enough! Don't think that this king will spoil you! How long are you going to pretend to be crazy in front of this king? This king's patience for you is limited!”Xiefeng Ming was furious! This woman actually dared to bite him!
