Wanyan Yi took out a long brocade box and handed it to Murong Qiqi. "Congratulations, cousin!"
Su Mei took the brocade box and opened it. It was a precious ruyi inlaid with gold and jade.
"Thank you, cousin! Cousins, please come in! Princess Yun, please come in! "
Since they were already at her door and Wanyan Yi and his brother were here, Murong Qiqi couldn't possibly chase Xia Yunxi back. She might as well invite the three of them in.
This was the first time Wanyan Yi entered the Everautumn Palace in over a decade. Ever since the Everautumn Palace became the exclusive residence of Wanyan Lie's concubine, he didn't allow anyone else to enter except for Wanyan Lie, Jing De, and the rest.
Wanyan Yi entered and sized up the furnishings.
What he saw shocked Wanyan Yi. He guessed that all the precious treasures in the national treasury had been moved here by Wanyan Lie. In the entire room, be it the teacups or the chairs, not to mention the decorations, they were all exquisite.
With just a glance, Wanyan Yi was sure that Murong Qiqi's position in Wanyan Lie's heart was even higher than Feng Cang's. Even the Empress hadn't enjoyed such treatment before.
It seemed like Imperial Mother was right. Only by marrying Murong Qiqi could he obtain the throne!
If he didn't personally visit the Everautumn Palace, Wanyan Yi wouldn't know how luxurious this place was and wouldn't be willing to pursue Murong Qiqi. Now that he saw Wanyan Lie's concubine, Wanyan Yi finally made up his mind to fight for the throne.
Xia Yunxi was a princess of the imperial family and had grown up in the palace. She had seen many treasures, so she was shocked when she saw the furnishings in the room. It seemed that the rumors were true. This princess of the State was truly favored by the North Zhou Emperor.
Xia Yunxi originally wanted to chat with Murong Qiqi and get close to her. She wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with Murong Qiqi and get her to support her as Duchess of Nanlin. Then, she would promise her some benefits so that Murong Qiqi would be moved and help her. But now, Wanyan Kang and Wanyan Yi suddenly appeared and completely disrupted her plans. This made Xia Yunxi very angry.
These two are so annoying! Xia Yunxi's gaze towards Wanyan Kang was filled with intense disgust. Furthermore, she also directed this disgust towards Wanyan Yi. Wanyan Yi was quite puzzled as to when he had offended Xia Yunxi.
Murong Qiqi and Xia Yunxi sat opposite Wanyan Yi. He compared them for a long time and felt that Lin Kexin was right. Xia Yunxi might be able to arouse a man's protectiveness, but Murong Qiqi was more appealing. Xia Yunxi might be able to arouse a man, but Murong Qiqi was more.
Although Wanyan Yi Yi favored Yunxi, he didn to Yi Yi that he Yunxi., he. Xia Yan Yan Yi and Tian., Xi was, "Yi, he Yu, a, and said., and said., I, Yi, Hua...,
Qi. Yunxi Wang Yan Yi, and Yi, a Hua, Yi, "Crown., and," Yi, Yi, Wang, has., Chen, Mei, Chen, King.
Because of Wanyan Yi's appearance, the originally lively atmosphere became awkward. Wan Yankang had nothing to do, so he stared at Su Mei and winked at her. From Wanyan Yi's point of view, Wan Yankang was winking at Murong Qiqi.
Damn it! Wanyan Yi clenched his fists tightly. Wan Yankang really wanted to fight with him for the throne. He didn't want his younger brother!
Murong Qiqi couldn't be bothered to break the awkward atmosphere. She drank her tea slowly and didn't say anything to break the silence. Xia Yunxi could no longer sit still and stood up to leave. Wanyan Yi also left. Only when Wanyan Kang was left did Murong Qiqi let out a long sigh of relief.
"Ah Kang, are you and Wanyan Yi really from the same mother? Why do I feel that your brother's eyes are so gloomy? " Murong Qiqi was worried for Wan Yankang when she thought of the way Lin Kexin looked at him at the banquets.
Although the Fifth Prince always had a cynical attitude, he was a person who valued relationships and was much better than the hypocritical Wanyan Yi. Everyone knew that Lin Kexin favored her eldest son. If she harmed Wan Yankang in order to help her eldest son seize the throne, as Wan Yankang's friend, Lin Kexin would definitely not let the matter rest.
Knowing that Murong Qiqi was worried about him, Wan Yankang smiled mischievously. "Cousin-in-law, instead of worrying about me, why don't you think about how to get rid of Xia Yunxi? This woman's pestering skills are the strongest I've ever seen. If she tries to do something bad, what will happen to you and cousin? "
Murong Qiqi didn't care about what Wan Yankang said. The fastest way to solve a problem was to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. Her most important task now was to wake Wanyan Mingyue up. She didn't have the time to care about Xia Yunxi. Once Wanyan Mingyue's problem was solved, it would be Xia Yunxi's death.
Compared to Xia Yunxi's shamelessness, Mingyue Cheng only sent Murong Qiqi some local specialties of the Southern Phoenix Country. Although Mingyue Cheng also wanted to see Murong Qiqi, he knew that men and women should keep their distance. If they met in private, it would be bad for Murong Qiqi's reputation. Thus, he endured and waited for the palace banquet.
Ever since Xia Yunxi was humiliated by Wan Yankang in the Eternal Autumn Palace, she gave up on Murong Qiqi. In Xia Yunxi's opinion, Murong Qiqi and Wan Yankang were on good terms, so they must be jackals of the same tribe. She had to fight for her own happiness.
Thus, Xia Yunxi woke up early every day and waited for Feng Cang to return from court. She planned to have a sweet encounter with him. However, after waiting for four to five days, all she got was Ji Xiang and Ruyi's mocking smiles.
There were rumors in the capital that Princess Yun of the Eastern Lu Country had chased after the Southern Lin King and forced him into a dead end. As a result, the Southern Lin King couldn't return to his palace and could only stay in the Fifth Prince's residence.
Some busybodies even dug up the identity of Xia Yunxi's mother. Her mother was an orphan that the Empress of the Eastern Lu Country had accidentally saved. Later, she took advantage of the Empress's pregnancy and climbed onto the dragon bed. Because she was skilled in seduction, she became Xia Jin's favorite concubine. From then on, she didn't care about the Empress …
All kinds of rumors and the fact that Feng Cang was hiding with Wan Yankang made the people of the capital completely understand this Princess of the Eastern Lu Country. When they thought about how many people in the White Cloud House had witnessed Xia Yunxi's shamelessness, they couldn't help but sigh. Like seed, like flower! If the mother wasn't a good person, how could the daughter be a good bird?
