With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

Chapter 38 The Prince is a Woman 38
Will the emperor be afraid?

Will do!

Hou Rongfa answered this in his heart, and he was still henpecked.

The scene before him was really killing him.

At the beginning, he was worried that Prince Ning would become a scourge to the country, but after so many days, he no longer had that worry. He never got involved in government affairs, and would never disturb His Majesty who was busy. He felt more and more that he came to live in the palace only because His Majesty was here.

But at the same time, he felt that if Prince Ning wanted to, nothing could restrain him, including His Majesty... Even if the palace really trapped Prince Ning's people, it would probably not be able to lock up his heart. Given Prince Ning's personality, once His Majesty chose to do this, the two of them would probably never be able to go back to the way they were before.

So he is now worried that one day Prince Ning will become disgusted with His Majesty.

Bah! How could he have such an outrageous idea? Stop, stop.

Hou Rongfa secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked at the slightly awkward atmosphere in front of him, and didn't dare to interrupt at all.

Isn't that the dilemma?
I hope Your Majesty can pass this test.

Your Majesty, I am helpless in this matter. I really cannot explain what the original purpose of this palace was. I just cannot explain it!

Ah Qi had a slight smile on her face and just looked at Ye Ji quietly, which made him feel a chill on his back and sweat on his forehead.

He clenched his hands behind his back into fists, and beads of sweat rolled down his well-defined cheeks. Thinking about what the palace was used for, he didn't even dare to look into her eyes, and his eyes wandered to other places.

He could feel that A'qi liked him.

She seemed to have many secrets. He was curious but could resist trying to find out.

But he was afraid that one day she would leave.

Therefore, despite the stability of their relationship, he did not give up preparing a palace to lock her up.

However, this matter cannot be exposed in advance.

Ye Ji's mind was in a mess. If Ah Qi left because of this and never paid attention to him again, he might really lose control and catch her back and lock her up. But in this case, their relationship would be over.

Also, he couldn't imagine seeing an expression of indifference or even hatred on her face.

Just from the way she divorced her brother-in-law, we can see that she is incredibly clear-headed when it comes to matters between men and women.

No, they haven't gotten to that point yet.

Ye Ji secretly exhaled a breath, his mind working rapidly, there must be a way to break the impasse!
Ah Qi did not urge him, but waited silently to see what he could come up with.

"This palace is indeed useful." Ye Ji said. He moved to Ah Qi's side without leaving a trace. Seeing that she did not dodge, he felt relieved. Then he glanced at the palace that was still being decorated and said, "It is used for living."

Ah Qi raised her eyes and looked at him, waiting for what to say next.

Ye Ji clenched his fists, continued to maintain his calmness, and said confidently: "This is my other residence."

Yes, that’s it!
Hou Rongfa hung his head and widened his eyes. He almost stumbled and fell. Would this work? Would Prince Ning believe it?

Asui naturally didn't believe it.

But if he made up a story that satisfied her, she would pretend to believe it.

Ah Qi looked back at the palace and said, "This place is remote and inconvenient. Your Majesty has no need to live here. The decoration outside the palace is made of gold powder. Could it be that Your Majesty wants to hide his mistress inside?"

Ye Ji hurriedly went to hold her hand: "How is it possible? It's just you and no other Jiao." His whole heart was filled with her, how could there be room for anything else.

Isn't it just to lock up this beautiful girl in front of him? He thought about locking her up and hiding her countless times in his mind, but he didn't dare.

"Yes, there are iron bars all around. It doesn't look like a normal residence, but rather like a place to lock someone up." Ah Qi's eyes showed some realization, but he didn't point it out. Instead, he leaned closer and asked, "Who exactly does your majesty want to lock up in this palace?"

Ye Ji's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Facing those clear eyes that seemed to see everything, he still remained stubborn and said, "It is indeed my future palace." He gritted his teeth and added, "It is used to lock me up."

Hou Rongfa's pupils widened in shock. Is this even possible?
Yingmian looked strange. Does Your Majesty have any special hobbies?
"Oh?" Ah Qi was suspicious and glanced at the hand held by the other party. He did not intend to break free. "Why would Your Majesty build a golden cage and lock yourself up?"

"Because you are not here during the day, I always miss you." Ye Ji's emotions have calmed down, thinking that this reason can definitely ignore this matter. "Chenghua Palace is full of your scent. I am afraid that I can't help but leave the palace to look for you, thus delaying my work. This is because I have poor concentration, so I thought of a way to build a sturdy palace. When I can't help it, I can live in it and let Hou Rongfa lock the door. In this way, I can work with peace of mind."

"When it's finished, I'll have Hou Rong give you a key." Ye Ji took the opportunity to say, "If you come early, take the key and come and take me back to Chenghua Palace."

A smile spread in Aqi's eyes. What a good storyteller.

Ye Ji held her small hands with both hands, leaned close to her ear and whispered: "I miss you too much, but I can't lock you up, so I can only lock myself up first."

I want to keep it closed, but I don’t dare.

Ye Ji suddenly realized that even if A'rui ignored him in the future, he would probably not be willing to lock him up.

He sighed inwardly. After all this time, he realized that this cage was used to lock himself up.

Sad.

Ah Qi held his hand tightly and said to the follower who was holding Ning Xiaoguai, "Give me the leash."

"Here, let's go take the dog for a walk." Ah Qi handed the dog leash to Ye Ji, took his other hand, and interlocked their fingers. "By the way, take a closer look at the palace. I'll give you some advice."

Hou Rongfa, who knew about it, said: "..."

Ye Ji didn’t know whether she believed it or not, but he was sure that this matter was over.

With a sigh of relief, he held the dog leash in one hand and led his beloved over with the other. Now that he was sure that this palace was used to imprison him, he became calm and even more confident.

Why feel guilty? Anyway, this is his place.

This time, neither Hou Rongfa nor Ying Fang followed.

Hou Rongfa's cheeks trembled, and he wiped the cold sweat frantically. What a thrilling scene. Thinking about His Majesty's words, his face was complicated. After all this time, the palace became His Majesty's residence.

"There is a merchant named Xiao Changsheng who often travels between Ximo Dynasty and Beixia. Maybe you should check him out." Asui suddenly said.

Merchants are indeed inconspicuous. As far as she knows, the other party is really doing business seriously and is a native of Beixia, at least on the surface. There is frequent trade between Beixia and Ximo Dynasty, and Xiao Changsheng is just a small caravan owner.

If he hadn't been involved with her former brothers-in-law, she wouldn't have noticed that he had other plans just to trick her sixth brother-in-law. After all, there were many people who failed in business, and there were too many examples.

"Okay, let's get someone to check him out." Ye Ji seemed to be thinking about something. The person who was specifically pointed out by A'li must have some problems. Moreover, he was a businessman traveling between the two countries. He took him seriously and immediately asked someone to check him out.

As the sun sets, a beautiful day ends.

At night, Ah Qi lay in Ye Ji's arms and asked, "I suddenly remembered that the palace was not used to imprison me, right?"
