Chapter 196 Royal Brother
Chapter 196 Royal Brother
Hearing Princess Jindie say that this brother was extremely handsome, Nangong Xihe couldn't help but think of the appearance of the Queen of Nanyi Kingdom. If he resembled his mother, he really deserved this praise.
When he first met the Queen of Nanyi, he couldn't help but be attracted by her.
The queen was of similar age to Concubine Zhou. It was no exaggeration to describe her as a stunning beauty, with a pair of narrow, long fox eyes that seemed to be able to captivate souls.
No wonder she could become the queen of Nanyi Kingdom despite being a second bride with a burden.
Among all the women Nangong Xihe had ever seen, only Yin Shiliu could be compared to her.
He couldn't help but feel regretful. Princess Jindie should look like her father. Her beauty was not even one-tenth of the queen's. She was just pretty and her skin was a little dark.
"Brother Wang, has he been outside all this time?"
Nangong Xihe continued to ask.
"Yes, when my brother was young, he worshipped a very powerful master, and his master took him away. He has been away for many years, and occasionally comes back to stay for a few days."
"When we got married, his old illness relapsed, so he didn't come back. But he gave me so many gifts!"
"Then my brother comes back this time..."
Princess Jindie suddenly sneered: "Your former concubine actually crawled out of the snake cave!"
"She has cultivated a body that is immune to all poisons, and the Gu King wants to make her a saint."
She snorted, "My brother came back to participate in the Saint's promotion ceremony."
King Gu was the national teacher of the Nanyi Kingdom and also the queen's lover. If he had not supported the queen to ascend the throne, the throne of the Nanyi Kingdom would have been taken away by other royal families long ago.
Therefore, King Gu had the same status as the Queen in the Nanyi Kingdom. If he wanted to confer the title of Saint on the Maiden, he would naturally have to hold a grand ceremony.
Nangong Xihe felt a chill on his back. Chu Feixue actually became the Holy Maiden of Miao Territory!
Will she take revenge on herself?
"Princess……"
Princess Jindie smiled and said, "Don't worry, Prince Consort. I am the future queen of Nanyi Country, and you are the future husband. You are of noble status, and she won't dare to do anything to you."
A few days later, Nangong Xihe met the "brother king".
When he and Princess Jindie went to pay their respects to the queen, they saw a man in white sitting next to the extremely beautiful queen.
He was wearing a white robe embroidered with gold thread, and his face was as pale as his clothes, but his eyebrows and features were picturesque, his lips were red, his teeth were white, and his fox eyes were exactly the same as the queen's. Wherever his gaze moved, it was captivating.
It was just as Princess Jindie said, the man was extremely handsome and had unparalleled charm.
"Brother, you are back!"
Princess Jindie excitedly threw herself into the arms of the man in white.
If Jiang Li and Xie Changan were here, they would definitely be shocked.
The man in white was none other than Nan Yonghe, who had been following them all the way!
It turns out that he is the son of the Queen of Nanyi Kingdom!
Nan Yonghe touched her head lovingly: "Xiao Die'er has grown up and got married, why are you still like a child?"
The queen laughed and said, "You are the one who spoiled her!"
Princess Jindie said coquettishly: "Now that I am married, I am no longer my brother's little butterfly, am I?"
Nan Yonghe smiled and said, "Even if you become a little old lady, you will always be your brother's little butterfly."
Nangong Xihe stepped forward and saluted: "Greetings to mother, and to brother."
Nan Yonghe turned his gaze towards him, his eyes unclear: "Nangong Xihe? The second prince of Da Chu, the King of Qi?"
Nangong Xihe was embarrassed: "That's right."
He felt so ashamed and angry. If I had not been in such a desperate situation, how could I, a prince of the Great Chu, give myself to a princess of a small country and become a concubine of a noble family?
Nan Yonghe said calmly, "Do you feel that the Nanyi Kingdom's consort and future Nanyi Kingdom's husband is not worthy of your status?"
Nangong Xihe hurriedly expressed his determination: "Brother Wang, what are you talking about? My feelings for the princess are evident to all!"
Nan Yonghe smiled as if in the spring breeze, but a trace of bloodthirsty light flashed in his eyes: "You dare not have second thoughts."
There was no sight of him making any movement, but there was a slight "pop" sound, and cracks appeared on the gold bricks under his feet!
The crack spread all the way to Nangong Xihe's feet before stopping.
Nangong Xihe was so frightened that her face turned pale. This "sickly" brother king actually had unfathomable martial arts skills!
Princess Jindie refused: "Brother, the Prince Consort is very kind to me, please don't scare him."
The queen smiled and said, "Alright, alright, Xiaodie'er, you guys should step back first. Your brother and I still have something to say."
Princess Jindie snorted and pulled the frightened Nangong Xihe away.
The queen glared at Nan Yonghe and said, "He's a lost dog, nothing to be afraid of. Why bother with him? He's just Xiao Die's toy."
Nan Yonghe said coldly: "After all, he is that man's bastard, doesn't mother think he is an eyesore?"
The queen giggled and said, "I feel so happy to see that man's most proud son crawling at my feet every day!"
She stopped laughing and looked at Nan Yonghe lovingly: "Yong'er, you are not young anymore. When do you plan to get married? Mother is waiting to have grandchildren."
"Mother knows that you despise those vulgar women. How many women in this world can match my son? At least you can take him as a concubine and have a few children."
The queen advised earnestly.
Nan Yonghe smiled slightly: "Okay, my son also wants to start a family."
The queen was delighted: "Yong'er has a girl he likes?"
Nan Yonghe's eyes were gentle: "Yeah."
The queen was delighted and asked: "When will you bring it to mother?"
Nan Yonghe sighed: "But the King of Xiang is interested, but the goddess is not."
"My son is so beautiful, and she doesn't even like him?"
The queen said indignantly, "Could it be that she is a fairy from heaven?"
"She has a fiancé." Nan Yonghe said disappointedly.
The queen was speechless. You could choose anyone else, but why did you have to choose someone who was engaged? If it was a chaste and virtuous woman raised in a noble family of the Great Chu, she would naturally not agree.
"Mother, I'm going to change my plans."
Nan Yonghe said word by word, "I want to restore my identity!"
The queen's eyes were complicated: "For that woman?"
Nan Yonghe smiled bitterly: "You also know my body, how many years can I last? My son can't wait, for her, and for mother!"
"The person who hurt you is still high up in the world and is as precious as gold and jade. Your son will make her pay back the debt she owes her mother bit by bit!"
"it is good."
The queen sighed and took out a jade pendant from her arms.
Carved on the jade pendant was a four-clawed golden dragon!
She solemnly handed the jade pendant to Nan Yonghe.
"Take this token and go to King Yan. He can prove your identity."
Nan Yonghe took it and put it in his arms, and Jiang Li’s beautiful and clever face appeared in front of him.
He smiled slightly and said, Marquis Jing'an, we will see each other again soon!
Nan Yonghe left the queen's bedroom and walked towards his own palace.
He ran into Nangong Xihe, who was assigned by Princess Jindie to pick flowers for her in the garden.
"Brother Wang."
Nangong Xihe saluted him tremblingly.
This handsome man who seemed like the reincarnation of a fox spirit gave him the feeling of a poisonous snake lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
Nan Yonghe smiled meaningfully. When passing by him, he smiled softly as if whispering, "Perhaps, you should call me 'Royal Brother'."
