146: Chapter 146 A Rich Dinner

"My Lord, have you taken a fancy to my sister? It's no wonder; in terms of looks, my sister is even more beautiful than I am, so it wouldn't be strange for you to take a fancy to her."

Duānmù Fèngdié giggled coquettishly and said softly.

Slap!

Qin Xiao slapped her on her voluptuous curves and retorted crossly: "Don't talk nonsense. I haven't even met your sister."

"However, you saying she is even prettier than you has piqued my interest a little!"

Qin Xiao rubbed his chin, feeling somewhat curious. Among his women, Duānmù Fèngdié's beauty could rank in the top six.

If her sister was prettier than her, she might even rank in the top three.

"Giggle, My Lord, my sister isn't as easy to trick as I am. It won't be an easy task if you want her to serve you just like I do."

Duānmù Fèngdié giggled, then said with a charming look: "However, if you have a need, My Lord, I could offer a little help."

Hearing this, a flash of surprise crossed Qin Xiao's eyes. "How do you plan to help me?"

Of course he had a need! He had a great need.

This was the Empress of Great Wei, the most noble woman in Great Wei!

Who wouldn't want to get a taste of what it's like to be an Emperor?

"Don't be impatient, My Lord. Let's enjoy this delicious food first!"

Duānmù Fèngdié leaned against Qin Xiao's ear and whispered, breathing out a charming, faint fragrance.

"?"

After saying that, Duānmù Fèngdié led Qin Xiao to start tasting the delicacies.

The dinner Duānmù Fèngdié had prepared was very abundant and luxurious.

There were Azure Lamb, Golden Bear Paw, Medicinal Deer Tail, Eight-Treasure Roast Duck, Roasted Spring Chicken, Eight-Treasure Precious Pig, Seven-Heart Rabbit Fillet, Ganoderma Vegetable Python, Blood-Nourishing Silver Fish...

Each and every dish tasted excellent, and Qin Xiao ate to his heart's content.

Crown Prince Mansion.

"Yuxi, get ready. We'll go visit Master in a while."

Crown Prince Wei Tiancheng said to Gu Yuxi.

Ever since becoming a Named Disciple of Ximen Qing, Crown Prince Wei Tiancheng's status in the imperial court had improved significantly.

His position had also stabilized greatly, and even when his Imperial Father spoke to him, he had become soft-spoken.

Furthermore, many factions had defected to his command, some even including Martial Artists of the Yin Yang Realm, which greatly increased his influence.

He knew that all of this was brought to him by Ximen Qing, so he became increasingly grateful to Ximen Qing.

The other party had not only saved his life but was also the savior who had secured his status.

If it weren't for him, he would have died on Daoquan Mountain long ago.

It was just that ever since returning to the capital, the other party had spent most of his time in Ximen Mansion and rarely went out.

Meanwhile, he himself had been busy wooing factions and cultivating his own inner circle, rarely visiting, which had caused their relationship to become distant.

"My Lord, has he come out of seclusion?"

Hearing this, Gu Yuxi's face brightened, and she asked with surprise.

She and Crown Prince Wei Tiancheng had long since become a couple in name only, so she could only place her heart on Qin Xiao.

She had thought that he would be in seclusion for a long time this time; she didn't expect him to come out of seclusion so quickly.

"Hmm!"

Crown Prince Wei Tiancheng nodded.

After confirming, Gu Yuxi happily said to Crown Prince Wei Tiancheng: "You go wait outside first. I need to apply my makeup."

Crown Prince Wei Tiancheng was not annoyed upon hearing this and walked out of the room.

The current Gu Yuxi could be said to be his Master's wife; his future glory, wealth, and status all depended on her!

He had to curry favor with her.

As long as this connection was maintained, the future throne would definitely be his. No matter how outstanding or talented his brothers were, it wouldn't matter.

After all, he had a great backer behind him. As long as the backer didn't fall, his status would be as stable as Mount Tai.

Besides, only after he became Emperor could Gu Yuxi become the Empress.

Otherwise, she would forever only be a Crown Princess!

And once he became Emperor, what kind of woman couldn't he have?

Why would he still care about a mere Gu Yuxi!
