Chapter 789 Shaobai + Shaoge 26
Xiao Se understood what Ye Dingzhi meant. It was simply that since he had to consider the face of his biological father, Emperor Mingde, he might as well take the throne himself and take the blame for not being able to judge people well. In this way, no matter what the people in the world think, he would have vindicated Prince Langya and would not have damaged the wisdom of the late emperor.
But Xiao Se had already chosen the path of a knight-errant early on, determined to stay away from the court and become a free knight who punished evil and eradicated evil, so he absolutely did not want to be involved in the imperial power.
Ye Dingzhi himself did not intend for him to become emperor, but was reminding him that it was impossible to have the best of both worlds, and he could only choose to take advantage of one side.
So Ye Dingzhi asked Xiao Se to think about it carefully.
News came from the palace that Emperor De fell into a coma again. Lan Yue Hou Xiao Yueli personally came to persuade Xiao Se to make a decision as soon as possible, and also sent Hua Jin, the young genius doctor who had stayed in the palace for a long time, to Xueluo Villa.
In terms of seniority, Xiao Se should call the young genius doctor Hua Jin "uncle master". Marquis Lan Yue sent Hua Jin to Xueluo Villa, on the one hand to protect Hua Jin from being harmed by various forces, and on the other hand to let Xiao Se use the face of Yaowang Valley to do good to King Bai Xiao Chong.
It's a pity that Xiao Se has already learned from Wu Xin that Bai Wang Xiao Chong's eyesight has been restored. Although he doesn't know when Bai Wang will make this matter public, he and Bai Wang are not yet at a life-and-death fight, so Xiao Se has no need to expose Bai Wang's plan.
When Prince Bai Xiao Chong heard that the young genius doctor Hua Jin was escorted to Xueluo Villa by Marquis Lan Yue, he said to Zang Ming: "Zang Ming, you see, the opportunity we have been waiting for has finally arrived."
Zang Ming also understood the White Prince Xiao Chong's plan, but still felt that there was no need to cooperate with Xiao Se: "Your Highness, do we have to cooperate with Prince Yong'an?"
Facing his absolute confidant, the White King was very happy to explain a few more words: "My power in the court is now not even comparable to Chu He who has not returned to the capital for a long time. Apart from my own character and holy heart, I don't see how I am better than Chu He and my seventh brother."
"I admit that I am gambling, but I feel more and more that my chances of winning are not small, and are even getting bigger and bigger."
Because he has been guarding Prince Bai personally, Zang Ming is not only a guard, but also undertakes most of the duties of a personal butler, so he knows almost everything about Prince Bai. Because of this, he has always believed that there is no need for Prince Bai's Palace to cooperate with Prince Yong'an's Palace.
Zang Ming was still a little dissatisfied in his heart: "But we have the Angry Sword Immortal Yan Zhantian, as well as the Tang Sect, Wushuang City and Dark River. Even Master Dong is not unkind to you. Compared with Prince Yong'an, you are already on par with him!"
The White King sighed softly, "Zang Ming, you forgot about the General's Mansion."
Zang Ming was speechless for a moment, but he still couldn't help but said, "...There's no need for you to come to my house in person and serve me as a servant..."
The White King smiled and said, "When asking for something from someone, of course you have to be courteous to them."
In the eyes of King Bai, the greatest forces in Xiao Se's hands were Xueyue City and Lei Clan, as well as the Zhenxi Marquis Mansion in Qiandong City. There were also many people in the court who were interested in his status as the legitimate son, but Xiao Se made it clear that he refused, leaving people with nowhere to turn to.
What’s more important is that he has the military support of the Ye family and the favor of Emperor Mingde behind him, so among the three princes who are most likely to ascend to the throne, he, the White King, is actually the weakest.
When the White King came to seek medical treatment, Xiao Se couldn't just kick him out even though he knew the inside story, because he couldn't let outsiders think that they were brothers at odds. Moreover, there was a rumor in Apocalypse City over the years that the White King's eyes were there to ward off disasters for him.
Only Xiao Se, the host, was in the small flower hall. The one who served tea and water was the old steward of the Yong'an Palace. However, when the tea and snacks were served, Xiao Se sent everyone away to make it easier for them to talk.
Xiao Se looked carefully at the White King's eyes, which were still covered with a layer of white, and sighed, saying, "Second brother, I can't figure out why you want to cooperate with me."
The White King said seriously: "As you can see, I need a legitimate reason and the right time to announce the news that my eyes have recovered."
By the way, he could also set up another trap to see how his side had been infiltrated by Xiao Yu.
Xiao Se always felt somewhat guilty towards King Bai, so he immediately agreed to set up the trap, but he didn't agree to let Hua Jin take the risk herself: "Hua Jin's medical skills are unparalleled in the world, but her martial arts skills are really not high. I don't want her to take the risk herself."
Prince Bai also agreed that Hua Jin didn't need to do it himself, but he had to make it look good. "As long as people outside think that the person who treated my eyes was the little genius doctor, it doesn't matter whether it was the little genius doctor himself."
Emperor Mingde in the palace knew that Hua Jin was going to treat Prince Bai Xiao Chong's eyes, so he asked Marquis Lan Yue Xiao Yueli to personally bring the Tiger Guards to guard him, using the excuse of the safety of the young genius doctor Hua Jin; Prince Chi Xiao Yu had long arranged for people to set up ambushes on the road leading from Xueluo Villa to Prince Bai's mansion. When Prince Bai's eyes were not good, he could rely on the Holy Heart to interact with him. If his eyes were better, especially if he took advantage of Xiao Se, he could not let the two of them have the possibility of uniting.
Even the Red King Xiao Yu activated the hidden man planted next to the White King Xiao Chong, the Ninth Prince Xiao Jingxia.
The most important thing is the young genius doctor Hua Jin, the real young genius doctor, and he cannot be put at risk, so Xiao Se suggested finding someone else to disguise himself as him.
Upon hearing this, Ye Dingzhi volunteered and said, "I'm pretty good at disguise. I learned a lot of real skills from the Thousand-Faced Ghost Mu Ying."
Wuxin, Lei Wujie, and even Xiao Se's eyes were wandering between Sikong Qianluo and Ye Ruoyi, but Ye Dingzhi was sure of Wuxin: "Neither Qianluo nor Lei Wujie is suitable. Qianluo's face shape is suitable, but you two are too erratic. You can't learn to disguise yourself as Hua Jin in a short time."
"Miss Ye is more stable, but you are still needed to escort us along the way. If you find someone else to disguise yourself as you, there will be a greater possibility of being exposed. So, it depends on who of you, Xiao Se or Wu Xin, is willing to sacrifice himself."
Xiao Se saw Ye Dingzhi's performance clearly, and couldn't suppress the curled corners of his mouth: "Let Wuxin do it. If I come, wouldn't it be more difficult for Wuxin to disguise himself as me?"
In fact, Sikong Qianluo, Lei Wujie and Wuxin all have some baby fat on their faces, so they have the hardware conditions to disguise themselves as Huajin. Ye Dingzhi doesn't really want to see Wuxin's good show, but time is tight and the task is heavy, so he is the most suitable one among the three.
Lei Wujie was already clapping his hands and complimenting Wuxin. Sikong Qianluo also wanted to make a few jokes, but Xiao Se's hand under the table pulled him, so he followed his sixth sense and shut up.
In this way, Ye Dingzhi quickly dressed Wuxin up to look like Hua Jin. If it weren't for Hua Jin's figure and temperament, when the two of them stood together, anyone who saw them would ask if they were twins.
Xiao Se pretended to say to Ye Dingzhi casually: "Senior, you have a very good relationship with Anhe. You can even learn the essence of the Thousand-Faced Ghost Mu Ying's eating skills."
Ye Dingzhi didn't care about this little bit of probing. Instead, he looked at Wu Xin and said, "If Mu Ying saw you, he would definitely recognize that this disguise was done by him. At least he would understand that you actually have some connection with Dark River, which would make things easier for him in the future."
In any case, when Wuxin restrained his figure and temperament, and tidied up his appearance, he became a completely different Hua Jin.
