Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 737 Questioning by the Pool

Station.

I had the idea of ​​going to the snack street to eat by the pool.

So he was not so keen on going to Tianxia Diyilou for dinner.

It's not that he doesn't like the food, it's that the money in his pocket doesn't allow him to eat it.

"However, we can try those small streets that those people mentioned when we have nothing to do..."

The attendant also felt a little pity.

"The prince really likes the food. Why is the food so expensive in the Great Xia Dynasty?"

"Don't say these words in front of others in the future."

Chibian warned the attendants.

Because if these words were to spread, it would seem that the people of Japan are very poor and cannot afford to eat.

However, this is indeed true.

Their country of Japan is just an island country, and its conditions in all aspects cannot be compared with those of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The wealth of the Great Xia Dynasty once made him very jealous.

That's why he set his sights on Xuanyuan Jing at that time.

Because they were both princes, he could see the ambition hidden in Xuanyuan Jing's eyes.

Unfortunately, Xuanyuan Jing did not agree to him.

Otherwise, the Great Xia Dynasty might have already been ruled by the Japanese.

Why does he have to be controlled by others when he wants to eat good food like now?

Just at this moment, someone came to report from outside the door.

"Prince, the guard just reported that someone wants to see you."

This person was brought over from Japan by Chibian.

So when he heard that someone wanted to see him, he deliberately asked more questions.

"I heard from the guards that the man came here yesterday, but the prince was out for dinner last night and came back too late, so he couldn't wait and went back."

I couldn't help but feel curious by the pool.

Logically speaking, he had just arrived in the Great Xia Dynasty and no one should know him.

Chi Bian also knew about the disturbance that Xuanyuan Jing caused in Nanzhao Kingdom.

In Chi Bian’s heart, Xuanyuan Jing is now a dead person.

Because no emperor would allow someone who would overthrow his throne to live.

So when he saw Xuanyuan Jing being brought in by the servants, he found it simply unbelievable.

"You...how could you possibly..."

After a brief surprise, Chibian remembered to ask Xuanyuan Jing to sit down.

Xuanyuan Jing is now not only thinner but also more frail.

There were obvious bruises on his face.

This was the mark left by the beating he received last time, and it had not yet completely disappeared.

"Prince, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Xuanyuan Jing did not hide the purpose of his visit.

"I wonder if the promise the prince made to me before still counts?"

Looking at Xuanyuan Jing by the pool, although she had her back straight, one could still tell at a glance that she looked dejected.

"As far as I know, there is no King Qing in the current Great Xia Dynasty."

Chi Bian did not answer Xuanyuan Jing's question, but said this.

This was obviously the sentence that Xuanyuan Jing hated to hear the most.

"I'm sure the prince is very clear about my situation. I didn't cooperate with him in the past few years because I thought I could take that position with my own abilities..."

Chibian rolled his eyes inwardly.

This idiot thinks he has extraordinary powers.

With his intelligence level, he might not even live to his current age in the royal family of Japan.

"What about now? What capital do you have to negotiate with me now?"

Chibian asked straight to the point.

Xuanyuan Jing was speechless after hearing his straightforward question.

"I...my last name is still Xuanyuan, and my father is still the emperor."

"What else? For example, are you still living in the palace? Do you still have the title of King Qing? How many people do you have under your command?"

Chi Bian had just arrived in the Great Xia Dynasty two days ago, so he knew nothing about the current Xuanyuan Jing.

Since Xuanyuan Jing dared to come and discuss cooperation with him, she must have her own strength.

Therefore, he has to understand the capital in this person's hands before considering the possibility of cooperating with this person.

"I...Now the emperor has demoted me to a commoner, and I can no longer enter the palace."

Having said that, Xuanyuan Jing's originally straight spine suddenly collapsed.

The man by the pool looked at Xuanyuan Jing in surprise.

This person might be trying to get something for nothing.

He doesn't do anything himself, but wants others to fight for him. He deserves that position for nothing.

He doesn't look that good, so how could he think of something so beautiful?

"Then how many of your men are still available?"

Chibian thought, maybe Emperor Nan Zhao had left a lot of hidden cards for Xuanyuan Jing?

According to the information they received, when the Nanzhao Kingdom was still in existence, the Emperor of Nanzhao loved Xuanyuan Jing very much.

At that time, he also named Xuanyuan Jing the King of Qing of the Nanzhao Kingdom, intending to pass the throne to him in the future.

"The Zhennan Palace is gone, and Nanzhao Kingdom has become Nanzhao County. I have no one to use now."

Xuanyuan Jing also knew what Chi Bian meant by asking these questions.

But he really doesn't have any manpower at hand now.

He also asked Mrs. Song indirectly about taking over the affairs of Wuyou Pavilion.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Song was very wary of him and just said that Wuyou Pavilion had been disbanded.

"You mean... you are alone now, without royal status or your own subordinates..."

Chibian emphasized again.

"You have no army, no money..."

Xuanyuan Jing lowered her head in shame.

"Strictly speaking, it is like this..."

Chibian couldn't help but exchange glances with his servant.

Could it be that Xuanyuan Jing has received too much stimulation?

Is he crazy?

How could he dare to think so much in his current situation?

"According to your current conditions, even if I want to help you, I can't."

Chibian is also a decisive person.

"You have nothing now. Your mother poisoned the current emperor, and you even rebelled with the Southern Zhao Kingdom."

“I was forced to do that…”

Xuanyuan Jing defended herself weakly.

"This is also due to the kindness of your current emperor, otherwise how could you still be alive..."

Chi Bian also admires the current emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Like this kind of person with a big picture.

How could he be compared to Xuanyuan Jing, a brainless and sinister villain who only knew how to do small things behind the scenes.

"Don't blame me for speaking harshly..."

Chibian looked at Xuanyuan Jing seriously.

"I definitely won't risk offending the Great Xia Emperor to help you right now. In other words, even if I help you get that position, you won't be able to sit on it..."

When Xuanyuan Jing heard Chi Bian say that it was impossible to help her, she seemed to hear the sound of her own heart breaking.

"You look down on me, don't you? Why do you think I can't sit in that position..."

"You have nothing now..."

Chibian was also angry because of Xuanyuan Jing's questioning tone.

"Even if you can tell me in what way you are comparable to the current Great Xia Emperor, I will be willing to help you."
