The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 220 Only with You Can I Feel at Ease (1)

The fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince appears here can only mean that His Royal Highness is facing an emergency.

Now that His Highness didn't say anything, Yang Qi naturally didn't rush. Anyway, it's better to say it sooner or later. If it's his mission, he will definitely not be able to escape.

Walking to the desk, Yuan Ruiyuan took the paper that Yang Qi had just written and looked at it carefully: "He is not idle at all."

The paper in His Highness's hand was what Yang Qi had just written, an analysis of the current situation in the court.

Seeing that His Highness's expression was normal, Yang Qi thought for a moment and replied, "Your Highness, you are joking. Yang Qi knows what he should do."

Yang Qi didn't see anyone, and the next time he looked, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was already sitting on the chair. He flicked his finger and the paper burned instantly.

Watching His Royal Highness's actions, Yang Qi's eyelids couldn't help but twitch. Apart from the time at Lingshan Temple and the Qinggong, this was the first time that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had displayed his martial arts in front of him. Was he trying to shock him?

Looking up, Yang Qi looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince without any reservation.

Compared to last time, His Highness looks much more haggard today.

How come His Highness has become a different person after not seeing him for a few months? His eyes, which used to be shrewd and wise, now have a lot of fatigue. Even now, His Highness's brows are still tightly furrowed, as if this trouble will never be resolved.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince grew up in the royal family, and the first thing he learned was how to hide his thoughts and how to be deceitful.

The fight with the Fifth Prince during this period was so cruel that even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so exhausted.

After thinking for a while, Yang Qi turned around, made a cup of tea carefully, and handed it to His Highness: "Your Highness, it must have taken some time to go out of the city, have a cup of tea and take a break. But this tea is not a rare variety, I picked it for fun in Xiaoyu Manor these days."

What Yang Qi said was not false. There were some tea trees in Xiaoyu Village, and in the spring, a lot of tender leaves sprouted.

When the tea leaves grew to their fullest, Yang Qi put on a straw hat, carried a tea basket, and went to the tea garden to pick a lot of them.

When the tea leaves are just picked, they are moist and strong, but once they are dried and fried, they become much smaller.

With the help of the tea farmers in the village, these teas go through a strict and complete processing process and become extremely fragrant teas.

Yang Qi collected all the tea that he had picked himself. The tea he drank these days was the freshest spring tea.

Yuan Ruiyuan had already received news about Yang Qi, and knew that this girl was living a very comfortable life in Xiaoyu Manor every day, eating and drinking as usual.

Taking the teacup, Yuan Ruiyuan first smelled it, then took a sip and tasted it. It tasted sweet and not bad. Then he drank it all in one gulp. After a while, he said, "Your tea tastes a little different from the others."

Yang Qi poured another cup for His Highness: "Your Highness is used to famous teas. Yang Qi's tea is really a bit of an expert. I hope Your Highness doesn't mind it."

Putting down the teapot, Yang Qi did not make any other moves. For a moment, the room fell into silence, so quiet that Yang Qi could clearly hear the sound of His Highness drinking tea.

At this time, Yuan Ruiyuan suddenly spoke up, breaking the silence: "Pack up and leave for Xihu tomorrow."

What, what? Yang Qi felt a little dizzy. Where to go? Did he hear correctly: "Your Highness, are you talking to... Yang Qi?" Why go to Xihu when he couldn't carry it on his shoulders or lift it with his hands?

Yuan Ruiyuan leaned forward and looked straight at Yang Qi: "Yes, it's you."

His Royal Highness stepped forward suddenly. Yang Qi was shocked by his action and stood still. She felt as if her body was out of her control and she couldn't move at all. She stammered, "I don't know... Your Highness, what do you want Yang Qi to do in Xihu?"

Seeing Yang Qi was very nervous but trying to pretend to be calm, Yuan Ruiyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You just thought well, the Tianyuan Dynasty is in crisis now. I need you to deliver something to General Huo from Xihu."

Yang Qi asked uncertainly, "Your Highness, are you talking about the Duke of England?"

Yuan Ruiyuan nodded: "Yes, it is my uncle who is stationed in Xihu, General Huo, Duke of Yingguo."

Pursing his lips and swallowing his saliva, Yang Qi looked at His Highness and lowered his head again: "Your Highness, as far as Yang Qi knows, General Huo Xuan is currently in the Imperial City. If you want to deliver something to Duke Ying, isn't General Huo Xuan the most suitable person?"

General Huo Xuan returned to the capital with his clan member Yue. Both the Crown Prince and Yang Qi knew this. At this time, Yang Qi did not try to hide it.

Retracting his gaze, Yuan Ruiyuan took the sachet beside the table and played with it in his hand: "You are right, Axuan is indeed in the capital, but since Axuan left Xihu, all forces have known about it. Now everyone who should know about Axuan's situation knows."

This sachet is embroidered with bamboo patterns and made of indigo-colored fabric. It is obviously for men. Could it be for Song Yangqing or Song Yangyao?

Yang Qi raised his head: "So, Your Highness deliberately let General Huo Xuan take charge of the "Linshan Tea" matter? So that everyone in the capital will know that General Huo Xuan is stuck with this matter?"

The more he thought about it, the more shocked Yang Qi became. His Highness had gone through so much trouble, even using General Huo Xuan to attract the Fifth Prince's attention. What he was going to say next must be a very big deal.

Yuan Ruiyuan touched the patterns on the sachet and did not answer Yang Qi.

After a while, Yuan Ruiyuan suddenly said, "This is a serious matter. If you don't want to, I won't embarrass you."

Boom... Boom, boom, boom...

As soon as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finished speaking, Yang Qi's heartbeat began to rise rapidly. Just standing there, it seemed as if she could hear her own heartbeat.

With his eyes wide open, Yang Qi took a deep breath. The meaning of His Highness' words was very clear. If he was unwilling to do this matter, or could not do it well, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

Is there any other way for me? The answer is of course no.

In this case, if this matter can be handled successfully, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince help me to redress my grandfather's name?

As the saying goes, wealth and honor are found in danger. Song Yangqi, don't be afraid!

Yang Qi was not a hesitant person. Having made up his mind, he immediately knelt down and looked up at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince firmly: "Your Highness, Yang Qi will definitely complete what Your Highness has ordered, even if it means sacrificing his life."

Looking at Yang Qi's expression, Yuan Ruiyuan was stunned for a moment. He was obviously just a teenager, but now, he had become the person he trusted the most.

Half squatting on the ground, Yuan Ruiyuan looked at Yang Qi for a long time and said, "Only with you can I feel at ease."
