Ye Qichi finished speaking and turned to leave.
Xiao Jinxing just watched Ye Qichi’s retreating figure coldly.
A few steps later, Ye Qichi suddenly stopped.
Xiao Jinxing’s eyes flickered slightly.
The unexpected beating of his heart startled him sowhat.
It seed like anticipation.
Or perhaps, it carried so surprise... a surprising delight.
Ye Qichi turned around and asked, "Where is Little Wu?"
It felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured down.
Xiao Jinxing just watched Ye Qichi coldly.
His whole body radiated ice-cold frost.
Ye Qichi, a few ters away, seed to feel his icy chill.
Ye Qichi frowned.
Did she annoy the Prince again?
What did she do?!
Just when Ye Qichi thought Xiao Jinxing would erupt in anger and start a quarrel with her as usual.
She saw Xiao Jinxing suddenly turn around and leave.
He inexplicably walked away.
The cold icy figure just disappeared in front of her eyes.
Damn!
The Prince hasn’t told her where Little Wu is?!
Could it be, sothing has happened?!
Ye Qichi felt nervous, she quickly asked Yuan Wenkang beside her, "What happened to Little Wu?"
"Reporting to the Princess. Officer Wu was injured while pursuing Chen Hezhi and his son, the Prince has ordered Officer Wu to stay in his room and rest." Yuan Wenkang respectfully replied.
So he also did not understand why the Princess, when ntioning Little Wu, would make the Prince suddenly flare up in anger.
"He’s not dead, is he?" Ye Qichi confird.
"Officer Wu’s injuries are not life-threatening." Yuan Wenkang answered.
"That’s good." She was scared into thinking that Little Wu had kicked the bucket.
"Does the Princess want to visit Officer Wu? I can accompany the Princess."
"No need." Ye Qichi said, "Little Wu is usually very healthy, as long as he rests well and recovers, it should be no big issue."
"Yes."
"I’ll be taking my leave first." Ye Qichi expressed her concern, "Officer Yuan, you’ve also had a hard journey, please take care to rest."
"Yes."
Ye Qichi left Pang Mansion and went to the temple to care for the plague patients.
Now she just waits for Gu Xingchuan’s arrival!
...
Pang Mansion.
Xiao Jinxing called Yuan Wenkang to his room.
"Has Ye Qichi left yet?" Xiao Jinxing asked.
His tone was sowhat cold.
As if, he didn’t really care about this person.
But in fact, his acting was poor.
Yuan Wenkang respectfully said, "Reporting to the Prince, the Princess has left."
"Did she say anything?"
"She told to rest well." Yuan Wenkang stated bluntly.
Xiao Jinxing’s expression slightly darkened.
Ye Qichi truly has a Buddha’s heart, caring for everyone indiscriminately.
Yuan Wenkang seed to also feel the Prince’s anger.
He quickly changed the topic and asked, "Did the Prince call here for so instructions?"
"Yes." Xiao Jinxing naturally would not really be upset about Ye Qichi delaying his important matters, he said, "Today you rest well, and tomorrow morning, you take my letter back to Xun, report to the Emperor regarding the execution of Chen Hezhi and his son for treachery."
"I obey the order!" Yuan Wenkang took the command.
"Yuan Wenkang." Xiao Jinxing called his na seriously.
"I am here."
"You followed to Yuzhou, and along the way, you have also established notable achievents for . From now on, I will treat you as one of my own."
"I appreciate the Prince’s trust."
"However." Xiao Jinxing’s eyes tightened slightly, he said deliberatively, "You know the current situation in the court."
"I know a bit."
"Once you pledge loyalty to , you will beco a thorn in the side of so people. You had better think it over carefully." Xiao Jinxing earnestly stated, "I will not force you."
aning, if Yuan Wenkang didn’t want to get involved in controversies, he would not make it difficult for him.
Naturally, Yuan Wenkang understood Xiao Jinxing’s aning and quickly replied, "I am willing to follow the Prince, loyal unto death!"
Xiao Jinxing’s lips slightly lifted.
In the entire court, apart from the Empress’s family’s influence, all talented and extraordinary individuals had been recruited under Xiao Jinxing’s command.
There were very few left that could still be utilized.
Yuan Wenkang also counts as a great general!
"Since that is the case, I won’t say much. As long as I am not down, I will definitely not let you down!"
"I will never fail the Prince’s favor!"
Xiao Jinxing nodded gently and slowly said, "Go and rest now."
"Yes."
Yuan Wenkang respectfully left.
Xiao Jinxing also stepped out of the room at this mont and headed towards Bai Mowan’s room.
For him.
Apart from revenge.
It was only Wan’er.
He naturally could not miss the ti to accompany Wan’er.
...
The news of Chen Hezhi and his son being executed on the spot by Xiao Jinxing was brought back to the Imperial Palace by Yuan Wenkang and naturally reached Xiao Jinsen’s ears.
