The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 179 - 91 Trip to Yuzhou (12) Xiao Jinxing Falls Ill_4

Chapter 179: Chapter 91 Trip to Yuzhou (12) Xiao Jinxing Falls Ill_4

"Xiao Jinxing." Ye Qichi suddenly called out to him again.

She wasn’t particularly interested in matters of love, so she would quickly turn the page on such things.

However, as soon as she began to speak.

Xiao Jinxing suddenly interrupted, "Concubine."

"What?" Ye Qichi was baffled.

Xiao Jinxing blurted out such a sentence, sounding incoherent.

Could it be that the fever has made him delirious?!

Xiao Jinxing looked at Ye Qichi.

This woman could be extremely sharp at times, yet at other times as dull as an ox, unable to catch on quickly.

"It’s nothing." Xiao Jinxing said irritably.

Ye Qichi was speechless once more.

This guy gets angry at the drop of a hat.

Isn’t he worried about his liver?!

In any case, it had nothing to do with her. She spoke her mind, "I don’t think it’s a solution for Yuzhou City to continue like this; we have to open the city gates. In fact, the plague is now under control and doesn’t affect the normal activities of the Yuzhou City residents. You also heard what Pang Nan said; he doesn’t have any extra food now, and thinking about other residents, I guess they’re only able to eat dirt!"

"The city gates won’t open." Xiao Jinxing also redirected his attention, "After all, Chen Hezhi doesn’t have the capability to control the epidemic; it’s all Xiao Jinsen’s manipulation. And the reason why the epidemic is now under control yet the city gates remain closed and no news has been released is simply because they are waiting for Xiao Jinsen’s arrival. Once he comes, all the credit will go to him!"

"I know that too." Ye Qichi nodded.

She had also figured that all this was Xiao Jinsen’s doing.

If Xiao Jinsen had taken control of the epidemic earlier, it wouldn’t have spread this far.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Xiao Jinsen wanted to magnify the situation, so he could make a greater name for himself!

In any case, no matter what, what she was most concerned about now was how to open the city gates, how to get the imperial court to come to the aid of the people in Yuzhou City and the surrounding cities, and how to restore normalcy here.

"Is there a way to get this situation back to the Emperor?!" Ye Qichi pondered.

"It’s no use sending word back; the Emperor listens to Xiao Jinsen now." Xiao Jinxing saw the situation clearly, "The only option is to wait for Yuan Wenkang to bring reinforcements, directly attack the city, and take down Chen Hezhi!"

Ye Qichi nodded.

It seems that was the only option.

Pang Nan’s current strength isn’t enough to contend with Chen Hezhi.

"I’m just worried..." Xiao Jinxing hesitated before he could finish.

"Worried about what?" Ye Qichi asked.

Whatever Xiao Jinxing worries about, it’s definitely not trifling.

"I’m worried that Xiao Jinsen has discovered Yuan Wenkang going to ask Bai Wenwu for help." Xiao Jinxing said.

"Don’t worry, Yuan Wenkang won’t betray you." Ye Qichi was certain.

Yuan Wenkang is a loyal official; this cannot be denied.

"I’m not worried about Yuan Wenkang; I’m worried about the numerous spies of Xiao Jinsen. He must have planted informants among Bai Wenwu’s troops. Once exposed, Xiao Jinsen will definitely stop Bai Wenwu from dispatching elite forces. Bai Wenwu would not defy Xiao Jinsen’s will!"

"You don’t have to worry about that." Ye Qichi said, "Bai Wenwu might comply with Xiao Jinsen’s arrangements due to face, but your Bai Missy won’t. In fact, the more Xiao Jinsen forbids her from doing something, the more she will do it."

Xiao Jinxing clearly didn’t believe it.

"In any case, you don’t need to worry about Bai Wenwu. As long as Yuan Wenkang hasn’t died on the way without delivering the message to Bai Mowan, once Bai Mowan gets the news, she will find a way to dispatch elite troops here to help you."

"Do you trust Bai Mowan that much?" Xiao Jinxing was surprised.

Even more than he did.

"Of course I trust her." Ye Qichi smiled.

Nonsense.

In her previous life, Bai Mowan was killed by Xiao Jinsen and even let Xiao Jinxing down for her entire life.

After her rebirth, naturally, Bai Mowan would seek revenge on Xiao Jinsen and then make amends with Xiao Jinxing.

Once Xiao Jinxing is threatened, especially if it’s to combat Xiao Jinsen, Bai Mowan wouldn’t even need to think about it; she would definitely provide the utmost support.

"Shouldn’t you... dislike her?" Xiao Jinxing asked.

"Why should I dislike her?!" Ye Qichi was utterly confused, "We have no grudges or grievances, what’s there to dislike."

Though it’s not to say she likes her.

Perhaps Bai Mowan still harbors some hostility towards her.

When they first met at the palace banquet, Ye Qichi felt that Bai Mowan’s gaze towards her was a bit off.

But that was also acceptable.

After all, in Bai Mowan’s view, she was supposed to be a "dead person," how is she still alive!

"You know I care about her, don’t you?" Xiao Jinxing’s tone wasn’t great.

He didn’t understand why he was getting upset.

"I know." Ye Qichi nodded like a pecking chicken, "You two will be married for a hundred years, with everlasting affection!"

"Ye Qichi!" Xiao Jinxing raised his voice.

At this moment, he was actually feeling very ill.

Any minute now he could pass out from sleep.

But Ye Qichi had angered him so much that he was about to blow his top.

Ye Qichi blinked, watching Xiao Jinxing.

"Liar!" Xiao Jinxing said coldly.

"..." Is this damn Prince only believing in Bai Mowan, and not in anything anyone else says?!

"Stop talking!" Xiao Jinxing commanded, "I need to rest."

He should have rested a long time ago!

His face is as red as a monkey’s butt, and he still finds the energy to argue with her?

Having stopped speaking to Ye Qichi, Xiao Jinxing soon fell asleep.

Ye Qichi glanced at him, wondering what on earth he was trying to prove by pushing himself so hard just now.

She sat quietly on the chair, waiting for Xiao Wu.

Luckily she had a long nap in the afternoon, so she wasn’t sleepy.

After waiting for half an hour, Xiao Wu’s hurried footsteps returned.

"Shh." Ye Qichi saw his excitement and quickly gestured for him to be quiet.

Xiao Wu held back and strived to speak calmly and softly, "Princess, the medicinal supplies at Pang Mansion have run out after treating Pang Nan’s young daughter!"
