C12 Selling the Body to Bury the Father?

"Have you heard, Prince Mu was stunned for seven whole days by the enemy's sneak attack."

"I heard about it. I also heard that during that period of time, it was all thanks to the great Young Master of Qin Family who helped us get up."

"Yeah, later on, when Prince Mu woke up, he praised Qin Family's young master greatly."

"Later on, later on, Prince Mu was no longer merciful. Not only did he force our Beibing Kingdom to retreat, he had also forced our Beibing Kingdom to contribute a few cities to our Xia Nan Kingdom. "

"It's just a pity..."

"Sigh... However, it was a pity that Prince Mu, who had been frightened out of his wits, had his face hurt by the enemy army. "Prince Mu, who can compete with the sun and moon, is no longer here..."

My brother said that the restaurants of ancient times were similar to the bars of modern times. Although this place was a bit more open than the ancient era and knew a bit more about it than the ancient era, it was still more or less the same.

In the corner sat what looked like a young couple. The two of them wore white robes and a mask that barely covered half of their faces. The difference was, while the young man wore white clothes and a mask that revealed their elegance, the young woman's were innocent and lively.

The young girl poked the youth's arm and said, "Xia Nan, like I said, big brother is very strong!"

Yuwen Xianan remained silent for a while and then agreed, "Yes, yes, your brother is very powerful." When the girl who used to be addicted to sleep pulled him to a teahouse every day, he expressed that he wasn't used to it … It was one thing to be squatting in a teahouse, but she really didn't need to praise her big brother with all her might.

Everyone's focus was clearly on Prince Mu, but this girl only paid attention to her big brother. If they weren't siblings, he really would have suspected something.

"Xiaoxi, Prince Mu is disfigured." After taking a sip of tea, Yuwen Xianan forced himself to wake up.

"I know." Qin Xiaoxi imitated his actions and sipped her tea, a smile flickering in her purple eyes.

Second Sister suddenly remembered that when she heard the news that "Prince Mu's face is ruined", her pale face was as white as a sheet of paper. Perhaps, it was because his father had instilled in Second Sister that she insisted on marrying Prince Mu. Otherwise, Second Sister wouldn't cry for a whole day and night without stopping.

If her family's Lili was like this, then the others … Not much better. His brother had said that when the belief that had supported a person for so long suddenly disappeared, that person would fall from grace and die from death.

Second Sister neither fell nor died, because when Prince Mu was ambushed by the enemy and passed out, the emperor already set up the crown prince.

Prince Mu's face was ruined, and so was the crown prince. It was also a piece of meat.

Furthermore, Prince Mu was on his way back to the imperial court. The emperor also didn't say that he would cancel the long prepared ceremony.

Thus, Prince Mu's concubine still had to be chosen. As for whether anyone was willing or not, that was not certain.

"Xiaoxi, the only person who is worthy of you in this world is not worthy of you." Yuwen Xianan had never thought that she wouldn't understand such profound words, he believed that she would understand.

"No problem, I don't need it." Squinting her eyes with a smile, Qin Xiaoxi didn't seem to mind at all. Even though... Her brother had asked her if she wanted to marry Prince Mu. But she did not want to marry a stranger.

Yuwen Xianan glanced at the red bracelet on her hand and remained silent. No need …

"Don't talk about me, Xia Nan, have you taken a fancy to any girl?" Qin Xiaoxi smiled in schadenfreude.

At Xia Nan's age, he could already have three wives, three wives, and four concubines.

He was obviously changing the topic.

Forget it... Yuwen Xianan rubbed his hurting forehead and threw a piece of silver on the table.

"Xiaoxi, let's … let's go out and play." Saying that, he took her hand and forcefully pulled her out of the teahouse. He had completely forgotten that men and women shouldn't be so intimate with each other. Anyway, the two of them had never cared about these things when they were together. Right now, he only wanted to make this girl shut up and not poke at his sore spot.

As they walked along the street, Qin Xiaoxi suddenly asked, "Xia Nan, would there be any news of you selling your body and burying your father?"

In the past, her brother had told her a bedtime story. There was one about selling your body and burying your father. The girl in the story sold herself to a young master as a slave in order to bury her father. Later, the eldest young master fell in love with a kind girl. Finally, the eldest young master resisted the pressure of the family and was happily and happily with the girl.

"..." What the heck...

"Hmm, Xia Nan, you can take the girl who sold her father to your home to cultivate your relationship. After that, you can be together." Qin Xiaoxi said happily.

Yuwen Xianan glanced at her, a little annoyed at his words. He shouldn't have said anything about feelings. Why did he have to fall in love with a girl who sold her body to her father … How could feelings be so easy to cultivate?

"Xiaoxi, there is absolutely no such thing as selling your body to bury your father." "If such a thing were to happen in the Imperial City, then the Emperor would truly be powerless." And, don't look at all that nonsense. "

"I didn't read the book."

"Then don't listen to storyteller's nonsense." The chance of them being together was too slim. Xia Nan Kingdom was a place that paid close attention to the right of families.

"I didn't listen to storyteller's nonsense either."

"... "Who told you that the young master of the Shangguan family can be with the girl who sold her father's corpse?"

"Big brother!"

Yuwen Xianan was speechless. He knew that the brother she spoke of was not Qin Shichen, and he also knew that no one in her heart had ever surpassed her brother. Therefore, it was best not to refute her brother's words.

"Xia Nan, I want to eat candied fruits." Qin Xiaoxi pointed at the candied fruits not far away, her eyes glowing.

"Alright, alright, I'll buy it for you." Seeing that the topic was let off the hook, Yuwen Xianan agreed to the girl's request and led her to the sugar gourd seller.

However... Why were there so many people standing on the street opposite Uncle with the candied fruits in his hands …

"Xia Nan... "Could it be …?" This time, Qin Xiaoxi did not dare to be interested in the candied fruits anymore, as her attention was completely attracted by that group of people.

Could it be … Could it be something …

Yuwen Xianan's face turned dark. He had just said with absolute certainty that he would not be selling his body to bury his father in the Imperial City, and now … Could it be true …

"Xiaoxi, let's go take a look." Yuwen Xianan pulled Lili along and strode toward the crowd.

Breaking the Imperial City's rules? No matter what it did, it would have to be handed over to the government. Furthermore, his prestige in Xiaoxi's heart had been destroyed. This was an even more unforgivable crime! He did not think that there would be anyone who would need to sell themselves to bury his father while he was still alive, nor would there be anyone who would be so bored as to specially come to the Imperial City to sell themselves to bury his father.
