Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 91 Crown Prince of Northern Wei, Wei Changge!

In her previous life, Li Yueyao was not always with the Goddess of War; they were separated for a long period of time as they each had their own things to do.

The female war goddess nodded slightly, then gave Li Qiye a deep look before transforming into a streak of light and leaving Qiye's palace.

"what?"

Li Yueyao looked at Li Qiye with a puzzled expression.

Why does it feel like the Goddess of War is looking at her brother Qiye strangely?
Imperial Mausoleum City.

In a quiet and elegant courtyard.

The members of the Northern Wei delegation knelt on the ground, their entire bodies drenched in cold sweat, yet they dared not move an inch.

In front of them, a young man sat in a chair with a half-smile, holding a book in his hand and casually flipping through it.

"One palm strike killed Xie Mubai, the Holy Son of the Tianyang Sect!"

"Ranked fifth on the list of prodigies!"

"Heh, is this the tenth prince Li Qiye that you all said was ignorant, complacent, incompetent, and least likely to become the crown prince?"

The handsome young man had a smile on his face, and looked gentle, refined, and approachable.

But deep in his eyes was a chilling coldness, and the book in his hand was the list of geniuses compiled by Langya Pavilion.

On the page he was looking at, he could clearly see Li Qiye's name and his related information.

From initially killing Xiao Yun, a remnant of the Demon Sect, to last night on Yanbo Lake, when he raised his hand and killed Xie Mubai, the Holy Son of the Tianyang Sect.

The above contains a detailed description of Li Qiye's deeds.

While some people were skeptical about Li Qiye's actions in killing Xiao Yun, a remnant of the Demon Sect, believing that he might not have been the one to do it or that he had used the power of divine weapons, dozens of prodigies witnessed the killing of Xie Mubai, the Holy Son of the Tianyang Sect, last night, so it was undeniable.

"Fifth on the Prodigy Ranking, he casually killed Xie Mubai, the Holy Son of the Tianyang Sect..."

"You guys really went to great lengths to find me a good brother-in-law!"

"You've really gone through a lot of trouble to come to Da Zhou. I really want to thank you properly."

The young man spoke with a smile.

But there was not a trace of a smile in his eyes.

"Your Majesty... Your Highness..."

A middle-aged man from the Northern Wei delegation, his face ashen, sweat dripping like raindrops, trembled as he spoke:
"Before this, Li Qiye had no other amazing achievements besides killing Xiao Yun, a remnant of the Demon Sect. He seemed quite ordinary."

"No one expected that he was hiding his strength so well and that he was so powerful."

"According to our investigation over several days, he usually either lies around enjoying himself at the Seven Nights Prince's Mansion or goes to the Qinglian Academy's Scripture Pavilion to read books."

"Moreover, his mother had passed away long ago, and he had no family support behind him, in contrast to the eldest prince Li An and the third prince Li Yuanzheng."

"The eldest prince's master is Master Fochen of the Faxiang School of Buddhism, while the third prince's mother is the daughter of the Grand Tutor. No matter how you look at it, Li Qiye has no chance of becoming the crown prince."

"Please, Your Highness, see the truth!"

The middle-aged man's head slammed heavily against the ground.

He was naturally well aware of the prince's character.

Don't be fooled by his gentle and refined appearance and friendly demeanor; he is actually ruthless and capricious, and his temper can change at any moment.

Even at a young age, he was able to calmly suggest digging out his younger sister Wei Ling Shuang's immortal bones and transplanting them into himself.

This shows how ruthless the other party is.

"Is that so?"

The young man smiled calmly and said, "But I've heard that Li Qiye has the support of Qin Rentu, the Grand General of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

As if sensing the youth's diminished killing intent, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly explained:
"Your Highness may not know, but Qin Rentu's daughter passed away many years ago, and the cause of her death is suspected to be related to the mother of the Third Prince Li Yuanzheng. Therefore, he will definitely not support Li Yuanzheng, but that does not mean he will necessarily support Li Qiye."

"Furthermore, although there are rumors of a close relationship between Li Qiye and Qin Linglong, if Li Qiye marries the princess, how could Qin Linglong, as the granddaughter of Qin Rentu, possibly be forced to become a concubine?" "In that case, Qin Rentu would naturally have no reason to support Li Qiye..."

The middle-aged man knelt there and spoke boastfully, recounting all the information the Northern Wei delegation had recently gathered.

The more he talked, the more he felt that what he was saying made sense, and he also became more confident.

He felt that despite Li Qiye's current amazing talent, Li Qiye was still the best core candidate.

He was completely unaware that the young man in front of him was smiling more and more broadly, and the coldness and chill in the depths of his eyes were becoming more intense.

"I see!"

Wei Changge nodded slightly, his voice remaining calm, his face even carrying a hint of gentleness:
"I can see that too. You have been very responsible and dedicated during your trip to the Great Zhou. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard work at all, we're not tired at all!"

"It is our duty to share Your Highness's burdens..."

The middle-aged man was secretly delighted and hurriedly said respectfully.

But before he could finish speaking, a hand radiating light landed on his head, accompanied by a very calm voice:

"Go and rest. I hope you'll be a little smarter in your next life."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the middle-aged man collapsed and died instantly.

The other person's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe that Wei Changge had killed him just like that.

"Please spare our lives, Your Highness! We know we were wrong!"

The other members of the Northern Wei delegation were so frightened that they went limp and kowtowed in terror.

"Get up, all of you."

Wei Changge looked at the people in front of him, still with a smile on his face.

The men knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and remained motionless.

Drops of sweat fell to the ground, along with other watermarks and a pungent odor, demonstrating the immense fear these individuals harbored.

"I don't want to say it again."

Wei Changge's calm voice rang out again.

The group hurriedly got up from the ground, but kept their heads down and their whole bodies were trembling.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Wei Changge's eyes: "Excuse me, am I that scary?"

"No, no, no, it's not scary at all."

The group quickly shook their heads.

"Actually, I didn't want to kill him either, but when something is done wrong, someone always has to take responsibility, right?"

"Also, you don't want to take responsibility for him, do you?"

"No...I don't want to..."

The group shook their heads in unison again.

"That's good. I don't want you to take on the responsibility either. After all, there are many things that you need to do. I can't do everything myself, can I?"

Wei Changge nodded with great satisfaction.

The maid beside him also brought tea, which he slowly picked up and continued:

"Your biggest problem with the matter of marriage alliances is that your thinking is too limited!"

One of the members of the marriage alliance swallowed hard and mustered his courage to say, "Your Highness, please enlighten us."
