Well, fine. It didn’t matter if others overheard it. In any case, Empress Jia s faction was very ciear about his intentions.

However, it could also be very troublesome…

“Your Highness…” When he saw that Prince lluaiyin did not reply to him and had lowered his head, seemingly deep in thought, Chu Jin called out to him.

His Highness was simply too unconcerned about such a big matter.

Prince lluaiyin finally raised his head and looked at Chu Jin.

“I have my own views on this matter,” he said.

Warfire? Well, alright. He had seen Warfire’s combat strength before.

It would be a lie to say that he wasn’t greedy to have them, but he couldn’t touch the benefits that Chu Jin mentioned for the time being.

It was better to talk to Song Rui first.

A look of hesitation flashed across Chu Jin’s face.

“Yes, Your Highness.” Then, he cupped his fists at Prince Huaiyin.

When he saw that Chu Jin was still standing there, Prince Huaiyin spoke again, “You may leave.”

Chu Jin raised his head and glanced at Prince lluaiyin. He eventually cupped his hands and left.

His Highness was not even willing to talk to him. Was he doubting Marquis Xiaoyaos sincerity?

Although Marquis Xiaoyao was close to Princess Xiangyang and had a lot of contact with that person in the palace, it was impossible for her to side with that person in the palace.

Forget it. It was useless for him to speculate on his part.

It was better to inquire about the situation with his good brothers first.

It would be best if he could find out some information, but if even they didn’t know the reason, he would get everyone to persuade His Highness together.

In short, he couldn’t sit by and watch His Highness lose a talent like Marquis Xiaoyao.

Prince lluaiyin was totally unaware of Chu Jin’s thoughts. Not long after Chu Jin left, he sent someone to send a message to Song Rui, asking the latter to meet him.

It was night.

Patrons were still flocking to Cloud Scent Court in droves.

In the private dining room on the third floor. Song Rui finally arrived to meet Prince Huaiyin.

After paying his respects to Prince Huaiyin, Song Rui sat opposite him.

“Is Your Highness looking for me for some urgent matter?¹¹ Song Rui quickly asked. His tone carried a tinge of displeasure.

If people found out that they were meeting in private, the impact would be unimaginable.

Prince lluaiyins eyes flickered, then he gestured to Song Rui to have a drink.

After Song Rui picked up his wine cup, Prince Huaiyin told him about Qin Xiaoyao looking for him as well as getting Chu Jin to talk to him.

When Song Rui heard that, he frowned deeply.

Prince lluaiyin watched Song Rui carefully and continued, “With Marquis Xiaoyaos personality, if I don’t agree, she’ll probably still try to get other people to persuade me.

“It’s fine if they’re all trustworthy people, but what if…” What if she found someone who was problematic? At that point, it could cause a lot of trouble.

For Prince Huaiyin, he would be fine since at most he would only receive more suspicion.

Marquis Xiaoyao, however, could no longer remain neutral in front of Empress Jia.

Once that happened, Empress Jia would probably make a move on her very soon.

This would go against Song Rui s original intention of keeping her out of the picture.

“So, Your Highness wants to agree to my wife’s request?” Song Rui looked at Prince lluaiyin with displeasure.

Though he said it in a dignified manner, his thoughts were not pure.

Prince lluaiyin s face stiffened.

Then he smiled awkwardly.

“In this situation, I feel…”

Before he could finish, Song Rui shot him a look. It forced him to swallow the rest of his words.

A moment later, just as Prince Huaiyin was feeling a little annoyed and felt that Song Rui had offended him, Song Rui finally opened his mouth.

“Then just agree to her request.” Song Rui’s face was bitter when he spoke at last.

The anger in Prince Huaiyin s heart instantly disappeared, and a sense of guilt rose instead.

After all, when Song Rui agreed to help him, the only condition Song Rui stated was for Prince Huaiyin to protect Qin Xiaoyao well and not let her get involved in these things.

Yet, now…

“Your Highness, please assign her less dangerous missions and try to let her remain neutral for a while longer,” Song Rui continued.

He understood his wife’s personality the best.

Since she insisted on helping him, he would let her participate.

However, he had to make some arrangements for his family. That way, the two of them would not have any worries at the back of their minds.

“Good!” Prince lluaiyin quickly answered.

He picked up his cup again and drank with Song Rui.

The next day.

Qin Xiaoyao had just arrived at the army camp when Chu Jin came looking for her.

Chu Jin’s face was full of smiles. He cupped his hands and bowed to Qin Xiaoyao as soon as he entered her tent.

“Greetings, Lord Marquis!”

When she saw that Chu Jin was in a good mood, Qin Xiaoyao also smiled.

“What is it?” she asked.

The smile on Chu Jin’s face grew wider.

“I am here to inform I have completed the task that Lord Marquis gave me yesterday,” he announced.

Qin Xiaoyao was stunned.

Then, she thought of something, and a smile broke out on her face at once.

“You mean…” She looked at Chu Jin.

Chu Jin smiled and nodded.

“His Highness asked me to invite Lord Marquis over,” he said.

Qin Xiaoyao felt delighted all over again.

She immediately stood up from behind the desk.

“Let’s go!” Then, she strode out of the tent.

Chu Jin followed with a grin.

After leaving the tent, he even quickened his pace and ran after Qin Xiaoyao.

“Lord Marquis, I have already completed the task you gave me. Then what you promised me yesterday…”

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Chu Jin.

The corners of her lips curled up. “What’s the rush?”

“Wait until 1 meet His Highness and confirm that you’re not lying, you rascal. I will naturally fulfill my promise afterward.”

When Chu Jin heard this, he was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled even more brightly.

“Deal!” lie continued to follow Qin Xiaoyao toward Prince lluaiyin s tent.

Outside Prince lluaiyins tent, QinXiaoyao was just about to let the guards inform the prince of her arrival when Prince Huaiyin’s voice rang out from inside.

“Come in.”

That was right. Prince lluaiyin was inside and had already heard the commotion outside. He knew that Chu Jin had brought Qin Xiaoyao over.

Qin Xiaoyao strode into the tent.

Chu Jin, however, stopped not far from the tent and did not follow her in.

“Greetings, Your Highness.” Upon seeing Prince Huaiyin, Qin Xiaoyao stepped up with a smile and bowed.

She thought that she would have to wait for three days before she could get an answer. She did not expect Prince Huaiyin to agree so quickly.

Chu Jin that rascal had accomplished this task beautifully!

“No need for formalities.” Prince Huaiyin looked at Qin Xiaoyao and gestured with his hand at her.

“Thank you, Your Highness!” Qin Xiaoyao straightened up.

Prince lluaiyin looked at Qin Xiaoyao who seemed to be in a good mood and felt a little helpless.

“Marquis Xiaoyao, please sit down,” he then said.

Qin Xiaoyao thanked him again and sat down on a chair not far away.

After sitting down, she saw tea and snacks on the desk.

She even acted impudently and helped herself to the food and drinks.

When he saw this, Prince lluaiyin s mood relaxed a little.

Although the couple did not respect him much, they treated him as a friend.

This kind of relationship made him feel quite comfortable occasionally.

After a while, Prince Huaiyin spoke, “I have carefully considered the words Marquis Xiaoyao said yesterday.”

Qin Xiaoyao immediately stopped eating and looked at Prince Huaiyin.

“Then what is Your Highness’s decision?” Although Chu Jin had already told her the answer, she still had to hear it from Prince Huaiyin himself.

Prince lluaiyin sighed in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face.

Tin naturally grateful that you can come to help me.

“As for Song Rui…” Prince Huaiyin’s eyes flickered.

“My husband is easy to deal with. If 1 go and persuade him personally, he will definitely agree,” Qin Xiaoyao said immediately.

Her husband s current situation was indeed special. It was understandable that Prince Huaiyin would be concerned..
