Chapter 399: Sending Out His Bastard Sister

Qi Xuan was delighted. "The Ninth Prince indeed has a thorough plan!"

Previously, Qi Hong had survived an assassination attempt orchestrated by Ye Siheng. If it weren’t for the Daoist Bai Mei’s forbidden array, Qi Hong would have lost his life long ago. Therefore, Qi Xuan believed that Ye Siheng’s arrangements were definitely reliable, and perhaps he could really take this gamble!

Ye Siheng set down his teacup, his expression calm. "Now, it depends on how Prince of Liangguang chooses."

At this stage, if Qi Xuan hesitated or retreated again, it would truly be contemptible. He was already pushed to a dead end and needed to go all-in!

"The Ninth Prince, it’s been a pleasure cooperating." Qi Xuan raised his teacup and drank it down in one gulp.

Ye Siheng was not surprised by this outcome. He nodded slightly and began to make arrangements.

After experiencing the previous assassination attempt, Qi Hong was now well protected by trusted guards and even had a vengeful spirit lingering around him, making it difficult to strike. However, difficult didn’t mean impossible.

Shortly after ascending the throne, Qi Hong ordered Qi Xuan to report to the capital. Qi Xuan knew that once he entered the capital, his fate would be entirely in Qi Hong’s hands. Therefore, when Ye Siheng approached him at this critical moment, he felt both happy and excited.

However, Ye Siheng couldn’t linger in Qi Nation any longer. He needed to return to Mu Nation immediately, or else Qi Nation’s spies would surely detect something amiss if he stayed away for too long, making the plan difficult to execute.

The two men spent most of the day in the tea room. Ye Siheng explained the detailed plan, and Qi Xuan applauded it. No wonder Ye Siheng held such a high position in Mu Nation. Even Emperor Muwu respected him greatly. Ye Siheng was not only skilled in combat but also in strategy.

"I’ll entrust this command token directly to Prince of Liangguang," Ye Siheng said straightforwardly, producing the token.

Prince of Liangguang’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t contain his smile. "To earn such trust from the Ninth Prince, I will certainly not disappoint and will execute that tyrant who killed his father and emperor!"

Ye Siheng smiled faintly. "Then let me congratulate you in advance."

The sky had darkened.

Prince of Liangguang ordered a feast to be prepared. After they ate, he insisted that Ye Siheng stay overnight at the palace.

Ye Siheng declined. "I’ve already delayed too much time. I must depart for Mu Nation immediately."

Prince of Liangguang waved his hand dismissively. "It won’t be much longer. The Ninth Prince has traveled a long way. I haven’t even given you a gift yet."

With that, he clapped his hands.

Upon hearing the applause, servants understood their master’s intent and opened the door.

Several lavishly dressed women entered gracefully, despite the strong wind outside. They were dressed lightly, revealing their slender figures, shivering from the cold and showing impatience on their faces.

One of the women spoke as soon as she entered, "Brother, who is this guest that made us come over in the dead of night? We’re freezing to death out there."

Their father had always been a libertine and had left behind many offspring.

Qi Xuan had once thought it troublesome and costly to maintain so many concubines and bastards, but later he found these bastard sisters quite useful.

Whenever he encountered someone he wanted to win over, he would send one of them out.

He never felt sorry, because they were just his half sister.

Now, there were only a few concubine sisters left in the mansion. These were the ones he couldn’t bear to send away, having spent a lot of money on their education and upkeep. So, all of them were fair-skinned, beautiful, delicate, and boneless, most suitable for serving men.

"No disrespect!" Prince of Liangguang’s face darkened as he introduced, "This is the Ninth Young Master. Show some manners and greet him."

The few women felt aggrieved. They knew they were objects, destined to be sent away one day.

Eighth Sister had already been picked by an old man over fifty. Thinking about her own fate today, her eyes were slightly red, her nose already sour.

They didn’t dare to defy Qi Xuan, so they approached.

But when they saw Ye Siheng’s figure, they were all stunned. He was unexpectedly a young man. Seeing his shoulders and figure, they were quite good.

They greeted him while secretly glancing at Ye Siheng to observe his appearance.

Ye Siheng raised his head slightly. His striking appearance instantly overshadowed the dim candlelight in the entire tea room.

He was such a handsome and extraordinary man!

Just moments ago, they had felt aggrieved, but now their hearts were surging with excitement. They involuntarily twisted their bodies, either highlighting their figures or showing off their beauty.

Ye Siheng glanced at them and furrowed his brows, then turned away with a displeased look. "What’s the meaning of this?"

"We have a mutual understanding and regret not meeting earlier. We think that advancing our relationship would benefit both sides. These sisters of mine have all been trained. Surely there’s one that the young master likes?" Qi Xuan said with a smile.

Ye Siheng refused, "I am already married. I only want her in my life."

He didn’t want nor was interested in the other women.

The faces of those concubines stiffened slightly.

They were rare beauties. Any man who saw them would salivate. How come they were treated like flood beasts in the presence of the Ninth Young Master?

Not even a glance was spared for them, emitting an air of disdain.

Qi Xuan chuckled, "Young Master, how can someone like you spend your whole life with just one woman? That’s laughable! At home, you have your wife to keep an eye on you, so you dare not mess around. But now, your wife is thousands of miles away. You can easily bring someone back, and what can your wife say then?"

Ye Siheng raised an eyebrow, "Prince of Liangguang, aren’t you afraid that my wife will tear your sisters apart and throw them into the river to feed the fish? I’m sure you’ve heard about my wife’s deeds. She’s not someone to mess with."

He wanted Qi Xuan to back down.

Little did he expect Qi Xuan to think that Ye Siheng was afraid of Nanli and dared not take anyone back.

True, women were easy to obtain, but a woman as formidable as Nanli couldn’t be found anywhere else in the world. Ye Siheng was impressive enough to not even touch other women for the sake of keeping Nanli.

"That’s fine." Qi Xuan blinked and came up with a ’good’ idea. "Feel free to enjoy them, and I won’t force you to take them away."

The concubines immediately showed shy expressions.

If it were someone else, they would definitely refuse. But someone like Ye Siheng, they would gladly oblige.

Ye Siheng’s expression turned completely cold. He suddenly stood up. "Prince of Liangguang, you’re pushing it. Do you really want to be friends?"

Prince of Liangguang was taken aback. He was already quite unhappy with Ye Siheng’s repeated refusals. He said, "I just want our relationship to advance further, to hear you call me elder brother."

"In other words, you want to hold something over me?" Ye Siheng ruthlessly exposed him. "You want to be my elder brother? That’s thinking too highly of yourself."

Prince of Liangguang also slammed the table, "You’re in my Prince of Liangguang Mansion. If you don’t toast when I offer you a drink, you’ll be punished!"

Indeed, now that he knew the detailed plan and had the command token for the spies, there was nothing more he needed from Ye Siheng.
