I really became a king.

Chapter 599: Qin Shi is dumbfounded

Jiang Yi walked out of the restaurant angrily. He was no longer in the mood to hang around, so he went straight back to Kongtong Mountain.

Many of his subordinates and guards met along the way, all of whom saluted respectfully. However, as soon as he stepped into the gate of the palace, a little maid came hurriedly to greet him.

"Your Majesty, my aunt wants to see you."

Jiang Yi didn't know what was going on, but he suddenly felt a headache. It wasn't long before his sister heard about it.

However, he did not have any aversion in his heart, and he was willing to give enough respect to this sister.

After all, it was because of her previous life that she suffered so much. Not only was she forced to marry at a young age, but she also met the wrong person, so she suffered a lot.

In the past few years, Jiang Yi has been consciously or unconsciously establishing his elder sister's status in Prince Yi's mansion.

Fortunately, the other party is also a person with a clear mind. She will take care of all the big and small matters in the backyard of Prince Yi's Mansion, including Jiang Yi's household affairs, but once it comes to military and political affairs, she will never say too much.

Sighing secretly, Jiang Yi walked towards the backyard.

At the same time that Jiang Yi was called away by his aunt Jiang Ning, in a secluded and small courtyard in the Western Frontier Royal City, Qin sat there crying silently, looking at the empty house.

When she heard that her husband had eloped with the widow with the money, she was furious and aggrieved. But after knowing the rumor that everyone knew about it, her anger suddenly subsided.

Now thinking back carefully, she realized that many things were wrong in the past.

When I was setting up a tea stall on the roadside, not only did I work hard but I didn’t make much money. I was also often taken advantage of by some street thugs.

Of course, he didn't really suffer any loss, after all, this was the capital of the Western Frontier, and no one dared to commit evil deeds openly. But he was inevitably verbally teased every now and then, and even had to pay a few cents for protection.

But ever since Prince Yi had a cup of tea here once, and until she opened the restaurant, all the troubles surrounding her suddenly disappeared.

To sum it up in one sentence: There are good people all around me.

Qin didn't think much about it, but simply thought that it was Tuo Xiaoliu from Prince Yi's Mansion who played a role, and she was complacent about it.

Who knew that this was not the case at all, and all of this originated from Prince Yi.

"No wonder those arrogant and powerful generals who always act arrogantly in the Western Frontier Royal City are always well-behaved in restaurants..." Qin smiled bitterly to herself.

And her husband has been acting strangely for some time. He suddenly became cautious in front of her and didn't dare to get close to her.

Because she ran a restaurant, she would just fall asleep as soon as she lay down every day without giving it much thought.

Now it seems that she is the only one who is kept in the dark. As for the outside world, it has already been known to everyone, but they are just discussing it in secret.

Just when Qin was in a trance, a figure walked into the yard.

"Is this... is this true?"

According to Tuo Xiaoliu's cautious nature, he had no intention of getting involved in this matter, but he couldn't bear his sister-in-law's crying, so he had to come.

After all, the Qin in front of her is the wife of her sister-in-law's younger brother. To be honest, they are very close relatives.

Although Prince Yi's Mansion blocked the news immediately, everyone who should know still knew it.

So Tuo Xiaoliu's sister-in-law came to her as soon as possible, not to ask for an explanation, but to beg for mercy.

Yes, begging for mercy.

Originally, this kind of thing was done in secret, but now because of her brother's elopement, it was suddenly exposed. Could Prince Yi swallow this breath? For the sake of her brother's life, Tuo Xiaoliu's sister-in-law came to her for help.

As for Tuo Xiaoliu, for the sake of her brother's future stable life, she couldn't refuse. She didn't dare to go to Jiang Yi's place, so she could only find Qin's place.

"No, there's no way I would do such a thing. Besides, if I had this intention, I would have cheated on me years ago. Why would I wait until now?" Qin felt so wronged.

Tuo Xiaoliu knew about Qin's charm. She had been coveted by many men over the years, including some from wealthy families.

But she didn't believe it. Could those people compare to her own prince? How many women in the world could withstand such temptation?
For example, she herself, although she was really reluctant, she was not really resistant. That feeling...

Tuo Xiaoliu's face turned red, and he said "Pooh" to himself, feeling a little agitated.

"You don't believe it? There's really nothing going on between me and Prince Yi!" Seeing Tuo Xiaoliu's expression, Qin became a little anxious.

"Well...it's actually nothing. I came here today hoping that you can save his life for the sake of our relationship as husband and wife."

Tuo Xiaoliu couldn't even explain himself clearly, so he naturally didn't want to continue to dwell on this matter and went straight to stating the purpose of today.

What? Save his life? Qin didn't react for a moment.

Seeing Qin's puzzled expression, Tuo Xiaoliu sighed and said, "You don't really think he can escape from Western Xinjiang alive with that widow, do you?"

"Why not?" Qin was at a loss.

Tuo Xiaoliu patted his forehead, and suddenly felt that Qin's innocence was a little cute. No wonder his own prince had set his eyes on her. He could only explain:
"Although Prince Yi's Mansion has tried its best to keep this matter secret, it still got out. Is Prince Yi's Mansion going to save its reputation?"

Qin understood, stood up suddenly, and said with a pale face: "The prince wants to kill people to silence them?"

Tuo Xiaoliu rolled his eyes at the other person and said, "The prince is a man who would not care, but the arrogant soldiers and generals under Prince Yi's mansion may not care. After all, many people would compete to do such a thing."

"What should we do?" Qin was anxious. Although she hated her husband in her heart, she didn't want to watch him die.

Tuo Xiaoliu sighed: "You can only go and ask the prince for help yourself."

"Me?" Qin opened her mouth, then shook her head vigorously. She didn't want to go at all. It was so embarrassing. Besides, why should she ask others for help? After all, this matter had nothing to do with them.

From beginning to end, she had only met Prince Yi twice, including today.

"I heard that my aunt is kind-hearted. Can't I ask her for help?"

Tuo Xiaoliu shook his head: "If it's a matter of the inner house, it would be no problem to ask the aunt for help, but if it involves the arrogant soldiers under the command of Prince Yi's Mansion, the aunt will not intervene."

"I can only ask the prince for help on this matter. Only the prince can truly command all the brave soldiers and generals of Prince Yi's palace."

Qin was somewhat reluctant. How could she bring up such a thing?

Seeing Qin's embarrassment, Tuo Xiaoliu suddenly believed it and whispered, "You really didn't have anything to do with the prince?"

Qin was about to cry: "Really, it's already this time, why should I lie to you again."

Tuo Xiaoliu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed out loud: "So the prince was really wronged this time? He had to bear such a big pot?" He felt a little gloating in his heart, the black-faced evil spirit, he deserved it!

"You are still laughing. What should we do..." Qin was ashamed and angry.

"What else can we do? We can only ask the prince for help, and we have to go immediately, otherwise it will be too late." Tuo Xiaoliu said seriously.

Qin was dumbfounded...
