The sky gradually darkened, and the lights on the streets lit up one by one, illuminating the entire Vermilion Bird Avenue as if it was daytime. Once the night lights were lit, it meant that the nightlife of the capital had officially begun. As soon as one stepped into Vermilion Bird Avenue, one could see some women leaning against the building, smiling, and flirtatious at the entrance, attracting customers. However, the closer they got to Weiyang Building, the more orderly it was. There were no prostitutes on the street, nor were there hawkers shouting everywhere. There were only well-dressed, wealthy, and noble men and women.
Three expensive palanquins steadily stopped at the entrance of Weiyang Restaurant.
"This is Weiyang Restaurant. Seeing is indeed better than hearing!”Ye Aotian, who was the first to get out of the sedan chair, had undisguised praise on his handsome face.
"There's a saying in our dynasty that if you don't reach Weiyang Pavilion in the capital, you'll be in vain.”Qi Yin, who came down immediately, had a calm expression, but it was not difficult to see a hint of pride in his eyes. After all, he was the descendant of the founder of Weiyang Restaurant.
"Oh? Is that so? Then I must take a good look at the uniqueness of Weiyang Tower.”Ye Shaoying's appearance was like the brightest star in the night sky, instantly lighting up the darkness.
There was a bright smile on her lips as she looked at the lively Weiyang Restaurant. Lou Huan, oh Lou Huan, let me find out more about you today.
Green Calyx and Qing Qing were gathered in Huang Wu's yellow pavilion to discuss matters, but they were interrupted by a servant girl who came to report.
"Hall Master Qing, the Crown Prince has brought Ye Aotian and Ye Shaoying from Southern Cloud.”
Qing Qing frowned and Yali's expression became a little heavy. She waved her hand and said," You can leave first. I'll be right there."”
"Interesting, interesting. Ye Shaoying, one of the two great beauties of the world, is also here. I want to go out and see what's so special about this beauty.”Green Calyx, who was dressed in green, sat on the table with her legs crossed. She clearly had an extremely beautiful jade face, but she had an unrestrained temperament.
Huang Wu's looks were average, but she had an elegant temperament, which added a bit of gentle charm to her. She glanced at Lü E in disgust, feeling pity in her heart. Her face that made people pity her was ruined by her vulgar words and actions.
"Alright, don't cause trouble. Huang Wu, you and Lü E organize what we just said. This matter is of great importance. Find a time to let Zi Yi pass the news to the young miss. I will go out to deal with the crown prince and the others first.”Qing Qing calmly finished speaking and quickly left the Yellow Pavilion for Rouge Hall.
Qing Qing came to the lobby and happened to see the three people who had just entered Weiyang Restaurant. Her expression was solemn. Putting Qi Yin and Ye Aotian aside, Ye Shaoying came dressed as a woman without any disguise. Her purpose was obviously not as simple as enjoying herself.
Fortunately, the flow of people at this moment was not very large. Otherwise, with Ye Shaoying's appearance, who knew what kind of storm it would cause. It seemed that the few of them still cared about their status. In this way, it was easier to handle.
"I don't know how many distinguished guests have come, but Qing Qing has not been far to welcome them.”Qing Qing collected her expression and smiled sweetly as she welcomed the three of them.
"Boss Qing, you came just in time.”Qi Yin said indifferently, but the probing tone in his words made Qing Qing's beautiful face freeze for a moment.
Ye Shaoying sized Qing Qing up and smiled." Boss Qing isn't just young, she's also a beauty."”
"How can I have the time for Young Lady? Come over and let Qing Qing arrange a private room for you.”
Every private room in Weiyang Restaurant had a different style. Among them, the Sunken Fish, Wild Goose, Biyue, and Shameful Flower private rooms were the most unique. Of course, the guests who could enter the four private rooms were all extremely distinguished.
"I heard that Weiyang Restaurant is most famous for its beautiful wine. Boss Qing, why don't you introduce it to us?”Ye Aotian was obviously very satisfied with this. As expected of the 'World's First Pavilion'.
"Young Master, there's no need to be anxious. Qing Qing will naturally make careful arrangements for you.”
"Wait." After Qi Yin stopped Ye Aotian with his gaze, he said slowly,"Boss Qing, please serve a few famous dishes first. Later, we'll experience the beauty of Weiyang Restaurant."”
Qing Qing was a smart person. How could she not see that they had something important to discuss with them? Naturally, she understood the situation and retreated. However, when she turned her back to them and left, she sighed to herself. Unfortunately, they were in the building. The rule of Weiyang Restaurant was that they would not pry into the news of customers in the building. Although this confidentiality principle had won them many customers, when they encountered such a situation, they could not help but feel depressed.
"Isn't Your Highness the Crown Prince a little too confident, choosing to discuss important matters here?”Ye Aotian sneered. He was not very satisfied with Qi Yin's actions. After all, Weiyang Restaurant was still a place of romance. He was afraid that others would hear a little bit of news when people came and went.
Qi Yin glanced at Ye Aotian disdainfully and said with pride," Weiyang Restaurant is the number one information organization in the world. It claims that there is no information that they can't find out. However, there is one thing. In the restaurant, there will never be anything that the walls have ears. This is their iron rule. It can be said that this place is safer than any other place.”
"I agree with that." Ye Shaoying raised her hand lazily in agreement. Then, she propped her chin up and asked," Your Highness, can you get straight to the point now? Why did you invite us here?"”
Ye Shaoying's tone was lazy, but there was an aura that could not be underestimated. It was as if she was calm and clear. Qi Yin knew very well that it was not difficult for him to control Ye Aotian, but he had to take down Ye Shaoying first!
This woman was really not simple!
Although his heart was surging, his face remained calm. Qi Yin smiled and said,"Princess, you're really straightforward. Other than being a host, I came today to discuss the alliance with the two of you."”
"It would be best if we could get the Crown Prince's help. However, I want to know what benefits we can get from forming an alliance with the Crown Prince.”
"If we form an alliance, this crown prince will definitely do his best to help the prince become the Cloud King. Furthermore, this crown prince's younger sister, Imperial Father's most beloved Eleventh Princess, will also be betrothed to the prince as his wife. Of course, after this crown prince ascends to the throne, there will be even more benefits.”
Just as Ye Aotian was about to continue talking, Ye Shaoying interrupted," Before the Crown Prince and Brother Wang continue talking, Shaoying wants to ask one thing first. Why did one-third of the men of sacrifice that I, Nanyun, brought die?"”
The atmosphere instantly fell, and Qi Yin and Ye Aotian's expressions instantly changed.
"Sister, this…"
Ye Shaoying glanced at her brother coldly and gestured for him to shut up. She stared at Qi Yin coldly and opened her cherry lips." Should the Crown Prince give Shaoying an explanation, or should Shaoying personally ask the Crown Princess Consort?"”
"Princess, since you already know, why are you asking?”Qi Yin sneered. He really shouldn't have underestimated Ye Shaoying. When Ye Aotian mobilized one-third of Nanyun's men of sacrifice without her consent, he should have thought that Ye Shaoying would not be easy to deal with.
He had turned a blind eye to Yang Xian Wan's actions because it would be a good thing if he could get rid of his seventh brother and his wife. Therefore, he had allowed her to arrange it and pretended not to know. He had even deliberately revealed the power of the Southern Cloud Deathsworn so that she could look for Ye Aotian. However, he did not expect that the number one young master of the martial arts world, the assassins of Soul Returning Sect, and the Southern Cloud Deathsworn would also fail. What exactly had his seventh brother and the others done?
"Shaoying knows, but that doesn't mean the Crown Prince doesn't need to explain.”Ye Shaoying also pressed on step by step and did not retreat at all. She naturally knew the reason. Her royal brother could not escape the beauty's trap and had taken the initiative to borrow the men of sacrifice. As for the Seven Kings couple, one was the successor of Mo Yuandi, and the other was the successor of the Nine Purple Phoenix Silk. It was not impossible for the two of them to escape if they joined forces. Although Qi Yin was not directly involved, he could not escape. Yang Xianwan was his crown princess, and the two of them definitely could not separate themselves from each other. Therefore, she had to seize this opportunity. Only then would he have better conditions to negotiate with Qi Yin.
"Younger Sister, enough. Older Brother was the one who insisted on borrowing it on his own accord. It has nothing to do with the Crown Prince.”Ye Aotian shouted loudly. His handsome face was filled with fear and worry.
"Brother Wang!" Ye Shaoying was filled with helplessness and anger. She was clearly just a little bit away from getting a bargaining chip for him, but it was destroyed by his words. Her brother was good in everything, but he was too indecisive, so he gave Uncle Wang an opportunity.
"Impudent! I'm discussing matters with the Crown Prince, don't interrupt!”Ye Aotian knew that his younger sister was much more capable than him, so he could listen to her everywhere in Nanyun. However, this was the Qi Dynasty. How could he lose face in front of outsiders and be at a disadvantage to his younger sister?
Her brother, who had always listened to her since she was young and had never said anything harsh to her, had actually humiliated her in front of outsiders. Who was she doing this for?! The more Ye Shaoying thought about it, the angrier she became. She stood up and said," Then Brother and His Highness the Crown Prince should discuss this properly. Shaoying, go out and get some fresh air."”
After saying that, he left without looking back. Ye Aotian had regretted it, but in front of Qi Yin, he could only hold it in and smile.”
"Princess Shaoying is worried about you as her brother. As for Nanyun's men of sacrifice, I sincerely apologize. I didn't take good care of Wan 'er.”Qi Yin said politely. His humble words made the usually high and mighty Crown Prince look so innocent and tolerant.
"The Crown Prince didn't know about this matter, so what crime is there? Please don't blame the Crown Princess. Alright, let's not talk about her anymore. Let's continue.”When Ye Aotian heard Qi Yin call himself 'me', he felt that he was very sincere, so he let down his guard and spoke frankly.
