Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 268

Chapter 268: Chapter 266: Maneuvering_1

The Jin Kingdom would never call this residence the Envoy’s Mansion. The Jin Kingdom allowed the Fourth Prince to name his own residence, treating him as an honored guest invited by the Jin Kingdom.

"Thank you for your concern, Crown Prince!" Murong Yu smiled and nodded. "My second son, raised with indulgence since childhood... If he behaves improperly in the future, I hope the Crown Prince will be considerate of this child!"

"Your Majesty, you speak too humbly!" The Crown Prince smiled. "Your Majesty and the Fourth Prince have traveled far, you must be tired. Please rest well, and tomorrow I will personally escort you both into the palace."

"Thank you, Crown Prince!" Murong Li bowed to the Crown Prince.

"Feng Yao, please escort the Crown Prince..." Murong Yu said with a smile.

Before leaving, the Crown Prince couldn’t help but look at the Emperor of Yan again. Indeed, he was so beautiful that one scarcely dared to look directly. It was evident how stunning Empress Ji must have been in her prime. Perhaps the only one who could rival her beauty now would be...

The image of Bai Qingyan suddenly flashed in the Crown Prince’s mind.

Honestly, if it weren’t for Bai Qingyan’s overpowering aura of a warrior, she truly could be considered a rare beauty, outshining the so-called First Beauty, the Princess of Nandu, Liu Ruofu, by far.

However, Bai Qingyan’s resolute demeanor often made people overlook her beauty because of her imposing pride.

"Please, Your Highness..."

Feng Yao’s sharp voice rang in the Crown Prince’s ear, bringing him back to his senses. He then saluted and took his leave.

As Feng Yao escorted the Crown Prince out, the Crown Prince suddenly thought of Xiao Rongyan. While walking, he smiled and asked Feng Yao, "I have a friend, Xiao Rongyan. I heard he’s acquainted with Eunuch Feng..."

Feng Yao was startled, then smiled and said, "Not very familiar. It’s just that our Ninth Prince appreciated my long service to Empress Ji and His Majesty, allowing this old servant to earn some money with Mr. Xiao."

The Crown Prince nodded with a smile, "Rongyan told me about his encounter with your Ninth Prince. Sharing the same character in their names, yet there was no blame. Your Ninth Prince is indeed generous."

"Our Ninth Prince said that since Mr. Xiao is a man of Wei Kingdom, his name was given by his parents, so it can’t be blamed on him. It can be considered fate between our Ninth Prince and Mr. Xiao." Feng Yao lowered his head respectfully, showing no sign of the authority he wielded beside the Emperor of Yan.

The Crown Prince’s carriage left the Envoy’s Mansion alley and headed straight for the Imperial Palace.

Previously, Yan had requested an envoy to Jin but never mentioned it would be the legitimate son. The Crown Prince needed to inform the Emperor immediately. _{ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm}

Because tomorrow was the Emperor of Jin’s birthday, envoys from various countries had come to Dadu City to celebrate. Upon hearing that the Emperor of Yan had arrived, they all personally brought gifts to where the Emperor of Yan was staying.

Xiao Rongyan, who had business in Yan and a partnership with Eunuch Feng, also needed to present gifts, preparing two: one for the Emperor of Yan, and one for Eunuch Feng.

When Xiao Rongyan arrived, envoys from various countries were still presenting gifts. He waited outside the residence for more than an hour before Feng Yao leisurely came out.

Xiao Rongyan quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Xiao Rongyan greets Eunuch."
