The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength

Chapter 6 Convincing Ye Jiang to agree to a marriage exchange

Xia Younan rolled his eyes secretly, ignored his insults, and told him what happened today.

After hearing this, Ye Baijiang's brows twisted into a knot, and his shrewd eyes were full of suspicion.

His eyes rolled slightly, and he walked to Lu Xiuyuan's bedside, first bowed his hands in greeting, then looked at him and asked, "Your Highness, I heard that my daughter bumped into you while riding a horse on the street today. I wonder how you feel now?"

Lu Xiuyuan suppressed the sneer in his heart and ignored him. Instead, he pretended to be stupid and waved to Xia Younan for help, "Fairy sister, please come here quickly. This old man looks so fierce. Will he hit me? I'm so scared."

Xia Younan hurried over and sat beside the bed, holding his hand, and comforted him softly: "Yuan'er, don't be afraid. This is the Prime Minister. He is here to visit you. He won't hit you."

"I'm scared too. Sister, please don't leave me." Lu Xiuyuan hugged her arms like a frightened little lamb.

Ye Baijiang narrowed his eyes and observed Lu Xiuyuan's expression for a long while. Seeing that he could not see anything unusual, he asked again with half-belief and half-doubt: "Your Majesty, I am the current Prime Minister Ye Baijiang. Do you really not remember me?"

Lu Xiuyuan hugged Xia Younan's arm tightly again, pouted and shook his head, "You weird old man, I don't know you, and I don't want to play with you."

Su Yu stood in front of Lu Xiuyuan unhappily and interrupted coldly, "If Prime Minister Ye doesn't believe that the prince suffered such a disaster, you can ask your second daughter. She is your daughter and will never lie to you. Otherwise, you can ask someone to investigate the scene. It is in the downtown area and there are plenty of witnesses."

In order to make things more realistic, Lu Xiuyuan was hit by a horse's hoof, so they were not afraid of Ye Baijiang going to verify it.

Hearing him say this, Ye Baijiang couldn't help but believe it a little.

He never expected that something like this would happen. The Lu Xiuyuan he had been guarding against turned out to be a moron. If it was true, it would be a great thing, but he was afraid that he was just pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger...

"Prime Minister, the second lady is your biological daughter. Now she has harmed our prince like this. Don't you deserve an explanation?" Su Yu didn't care about Ye Baijiang's status above everyone else and asked for an explanation with a cold face.

Before investigating the whole matter, Ye Baijiang was in the wrong at the moment. Facing Su Yu's questioning, he took a deep breath and had to smile apologetically.

After all, even if he was the prime minister, it would be a serious crime for his family to make a royal relative stupid.

He bowed to Lu Xiuyuan again and apologized politely: "Your Highness, I am extremely sorry. This is all my daughter's fault for being reckless. But... after all, she didn't do it on purpose. How about I take her back and give her a good beating to relieve Your Highness's anger? What do you think?"

"No!" Before Xia Younan could say anything, Lu Xiuyuan suddenly howled, pointing at Ye Baijiang anxiously and angrily, "You bad old man, don't hit my wife. If you dare to hit my wife, I will beat you!"

"Wife?!" Ye Baijiang was so frightened that he almost fainted.

Xia Younan raised her lips to comfort Lu Xiuyuan, then said to Ye Baijiang indignantly: "Dad, your daughter has made him stupid! The prince was originally a wise and brave man, and his life was ruined by me. What's the point of beating me? Will he be fine after beating me?"

Ye Baijiang's eyes didn't pop out, he just stared at her speechlessly and angrily, cursing her a hundred times in his heart.

Is this girl sick? Who is she in league with?

Xia Younan sat down next to Lu Xiuyuan with a smile, put her arm around his shoulders and said, "Dad, when we hurt someone here, it's popular to pledge one's love. So, you give me to the prince as compensation, and I will marry him and take care of him for the rest of his life until he recovers."

"presumptuous!"

As expected, Xia Younan was interrupted by Ye Baijiang before he could finish his words. The old man was so angry that his face turned red and his hands were shaking.

"You are such a foolish girl who doesn't know how to live or die. How can you treat marriage as such a joke? If you don't have an engagement, it would be fine. But your cousin, the emperor, just issued an imperial decree to grant you marriage a few days ago. Now you want to disobey the decree and marry his own brother. Are you crazy?"

Xia Younan chuckled, not caring about his anger, stood up and pulled Ye Baijiang out the door, "Come on, Dad, let's talk for a moment."

When they got outside, Xia Younan crossed his arms and discussed with Ye Baijiang: "Dad, I've heard it all. The daughter you've chosen has always been my elder sister. She is the legitimate daughter of the prime minister, with a noble status, and is the most qualified to enter the palace to bring honor to the family. As for me, a daughter born to a maid, even if I enter the palace, it will be shameful for Dad to tell others about it."

Her words hit the nail on the head for Ye Baijiang. However, he did not give a direct answer, but said: "There is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children. Your legitimate sister is indeed more suitable to enter the palace than you. But the emperor has deep feelings for you. Your father and the queen mother have put pressure on him countless times, but he has not changed his mind."

If there was any way, Ye Baijiang would never abandon his legitimate daughter and let a maid's child enter the palace.

Xia Younan sneered in his heart and said bluntly: "Dad, for the honor of our family, I have decided to swap marriages with my eldest sister. When I go back later, I will write a farewell letter to the emperor and explain the reason to him so that he can change the imperial decree."

Ye Baijiang looked at her steadily, his shrewd eyes full of suspicion, "Why did you do this?"

"Didn't I say it was for the honor of the family? Are you deaf?"

After hearing what Xia Younan said, Ye Baijiang didn't understand the specific reason, but this matter was exactly what he wanted, so he agreed without much hesitation.

The two of them discussed it and went back into the room.

Xia Younan walked up to Su Yu, patted his shoulder vigorously, and said with a look of greatness: "Little brother, we have discussed it. In order to make up for the heinous mistakes I made, my father decided to marry me to the prince, take care of his food, clothing, housing and transportation, and help him recover his brain. Are you satisfied?"

Su Yu raised an eyebrow and looked at Ye Baijiang with a questioning look.

Ye Baijiang sighed and nodded helplessly, "If I can find a way to get the emperor's consent, I am willing to marry my daughter to the prince to atone for my sins."

A look of surprise flashed in Su Yu's eyes, and he glanced at Lu Xiuyuan inconspicuously.

Lu Xiuyuan frowned, also looking confused.

"In that case, I'm sorry, Second Miss."

Su Yu couldn't refuse, so he agreed.

"No, no, no!" Xia Younan was so happy that she ran to sit in front of Lu Xiuyuan, put her arms around his neck, and said in a cheesy way, "Yuan'er, be good. Wait at home first. Fairy Sister will come to accompany you in two days."

"No!" Lu Xiuyuan kicked his legs and cried like a child whose candy was taken away from him. "I don't want Fairy Sister to leave. Yuan'er likes Fairy Sister. I'm so sad if Fairy Sister leaves."

Although he had a lot of questions in his mind, he still had to play his part, especially in front of the old fox Ye Baijiang.

Only by making him completely believe that he is a fool can he relax his guard against you.

Xia Younan held Lu Xiuyuan's face and kissed and rubbed it, taking advantage of him completely. She also coaxed him with sweet words for a long time, promising that she would come back, marry him and stay with him forever. Only then did she coax him.

Afterwards, he left the palace with Ye Baijiang.
