The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Anyway.

He now had completely acknowledged Ye Qichi as a friend.

Since they were friends, he could not stand idly by and watch his friend be bullied.

"Ye Qichi, I always thought you were foolish before and never took you seriously. Now I've come to realize that everyone has underestimated you," Xiao Jinsen plainly didn't want to beat around the bush with Ye Qichi anymore.

"Your Highness flatters me unduly. Your humble servant has not changed, just as before," said the Princess.

"There's no need for you to pretend in front of me, I know exactly what kind of person you are," Xiao Jinsen said bluntly, "And I, like dealing with smart people."

So what Xiao Jinsen wanted to do.

"Do you know who suggested the imperial decree you received today from the Emperor, which forbids you from divorcing Xiao Jinxing?" Xiao Jinsen raised his eyebrows slightly, a hint of pride in his voice.

Ye Qichi naturally knew right away that it was Xiao Jinsen.

This man had always been full of cunning schemes, so it was no surprise that he could conceive such a method to safeguard his own status.

"Don't you think you ought to thank me," Xiao Jinsen asked Ye Qichi coldly.

Ye Qichi lightly pursed her lips.

Thank you?!

I thank your ancestors for eighteen generations!

"Your Highness's intentions, whether for your humble servant or for yourself, surely you understand better than anyone," Ye Qichi also didn't want to pretend in front of Xiao Jinsen anymore.

If one can't maintain the facade, then why not vent a little.

Xiao Jinsen's eyes tightened.

"Your humble servant must admit, Your Highness has made a clever move," Ye Qichi said forthrightly.

"So, would you consider an alliance?" Xiao Jinsen asked Ye Qichi.

Ye Qichi was indeed a little surprised.

Surprised by Xiao Jinsen's bold proposal.

Is this man too arrogant?!

He actually wants to ally with her?!

He actually wants to collaborate with Xiao Jinxing's woman?!

"The imperial decree from the Emperor says that you alone possess the title of Princess. It refers to you as the Princess, but if Xiao Jinxing is no longer the prince, do you think you could still hold that position?!" Xiao Jinsen asked her.

Thus, Xiao Jinsen was clever enough to realize that wording can be very important.

"What are you trying to say?"

"As long as Xiao Jinxing remains in his prince's position, you can rest easy," Xiao Jinsen tempted, "And being as intelligent as you are, you should understand what I'm saying, and you should know how to choose! After all, in my eyes, the Princess seems deeply in love with the prince."

Are you blind?!

Which eye of yours sees that she is deeply in love with Xiao Jinxing?!

If possible.

She would take a sword and dismember Xiao Jinxing piece by piece.

The anger inside, but on her face still with an undisturbed smile, "The words of Your Highness have moved your humble servant."

Xiao Jinsen smirked triumphantly.

"However, your humble servant is not foolish," Ye Qichi spoke straightforwardly, "Xiao Jinxing can stay in his prince's position as long as he wishes, and your humble servant can stay with him, sure, but if Your Highness is not in your prince's position, then how could Xiao Jinxing, remain in his? Your Highness, don't you think I'm correct?"

Xiao Jinsen's face turned dark all of a sudden.

This woman, Ye Qichi, indeed was not blinded by love.

Clearly, she meant that if he ascended the throne as Emperor, Xiao Jinxing would no longer be the prince, as he would undoubtedly choose to eliminate any threat thoroughly.

Within the royal family, no threat or aftermath is ever left unaddressed.

"Your Highness, 'pathways differ, we do not plan together,'" Ye Qichi dropped this remark, gave a bow, and without waiting for Xiao Jinsen's consent, turned and walked away.

Xiao Jinsen watched Ye Qichi's retreating figure.

This woman truly intrigued him!

With just a few words, she had completely deflected his advances.

The more she resisted.

The more he wanted to attain her.

In his life, there was nothing he could not have!

Including the throne.

Including women!

Xiao Jinsen also turned to leave, to see his mother, the Empress.

But at that moment, he spotted Bai Mowan not far away.

This woman, he didn't know when she had appeared there.

Normally his vigilance would never allow him to miss her.

But because Ye Qichi was in front of him, all his attention was focused on her.

Ye Qichi's intelligence, aloofness, and beauty truly made him, somewhat, unable to stop wanting her.

Now looking at Bai Mowan, it all seemed much more mundane.

How could he have ever thought that Bai Mowan was the number one beauty in Daxuan Kingdom? The beauty referred to not just outward appearance. Although Bai Mowan was good-looking, Daxuan was not home to only her beauty. There were countless beautiful people in the Imperial Palace, and her beauty also encompassed her aura, depth, and ability in all aspects, giving one a feeling as if a light suddenly shone upon them.
