Qi Hongzhi glanced around, and although the Emperor didn’t notice, he saw his usually arrogant Nineteenth Uncle flattering and talking with a woman.
Hmm?
Could the rumors be true?
That woman who made Nineteenth Uncle utterly captivated, has she really been found and brought back to the Prince Mansion by him?
No, he needs to take a good look. On matters of romance, Nineteenth Uncle is a blank slate, easily exploited. This must be some Demoness from somewhere who has enchanted Nineteenth Uncle. She must have an agenda, whether to harm him or covet wealth and riches. Recently, Nineteenth Uncle went mad searching but couldn’t find her, and just when he’s itching for more, this woman appears.
There’s an issue, definitely a significant issue!
Qi Hongzhi ran up to Qi Haoxuan and saluted, "Nineteenth Uncle!"
"You’re coming at the right time, what’s wrong with you? As a royal child, how can you disturb the people? Not queueing properly, how dare you cut in line? It’s one thing to cut in line, but you even cut ahead of me?" Qi Haoxuan pointed at Qi Hongzhi’s head and scolded him.
Listening to Qi Haoxuan’s reprimands, Qi Hongzhi looked up at the woman standing next to Qi Haoxuan.
He then gasped.
This kind of woman, a Demoness? Impossible! Look at that appearance, that temperament, he has never seen anyone so dazzling. Qi Hongzhi was absolutely stunned, finally understanding why the always clueless Nineteenth Uncle was mesmerized by her.
Nineteenth Uncle wasn’t clueless before? He just had high standards; those previous women were merely dust on the ground, now he’s seeing the clouds in the sky, of course, he’d be enlightened instantly. Qi Hongzhi lamented in his heart.
Ah, no, no, can’t be bewitched by this woman’s appearance! Qi Hongzhi, you have to stay awake. Calm down, calm down, keep steady! First, secretly observe to see if this woman has any ulterior motives.
"I’m talking to you, what are you daydreaming about?" Qi Haoxuan, seeing Qi Hongzhi’s dazed look, furiously reached out and tugged at Qi Hongzhi’s ear.
"Ouch, Nineteenth Uncle, let go, let go, I was wrong, I know I was wrong." Qi Hongzhi yelped, "I’ll make sure they don’t cut the line, and anyone who does from now on, I’ll beat them up!"
"That’s more like it. Hongzhi, you’re not little anymore, you need to be sensible." Qi Haoxuan said earnestly.
Qi Hongzhi’s mouth twitched, please, Nineteenth Uncle, aren’t you a year younger than me? You’re a higher rank than me, but you act more wildly than I do. Can you sincerely say you have the right to say this?
Of course, Qi Hongzhi dared not say these words out loud, only muttering complaints to himself.
Tianmiao watched this scene, unable to suppress a smile.
This Qi Hongzhi was also one of the Capital City’s most representative playboys. Yet, he was sincerely loyal to Qi Haoxuan. In the previous world collapse, Qi Hongzhi first suspected the woman next to Qi Haoxuan had hidden motives, and found some clues. But Qi Haoxuan didn’t believe him; or, rather, Qi Haoxuan had lost his senses and couldn’t respond. He grew increasingly distant from Qi Hongzhi, even sabotaging him, making Qi Hongzhi’s life extremely difficult, and nearly costing him his life.
Later, when Qi Haoxuan awoke after a failed rebellion, he couldn’t face those who sincerely cared for him yet were cruelly hurt by him, choosing to end his life. And in such a tragic way.
