Chapter 406 - 406: Casting Her Lot With Prince Huaiyin



Prince Huaiyin thought to himself, “You are really confident.”

However, he didn’t show it on his face.

“You and Lord Song…” he asked, pretending to be unaware.

“We have always been in contact,” Qin Xiaoyao said.

“My husband didn’t really join Minister Shen’s camp. Figuratively speaking, he was in Cao Cao’s camp but his heart was with the Han State.”

Prince Huaiyin stared at her blankly.

Only then did Qin Xiaoyao remember that the people of this era did not know about the history of the Three Kingdoms at all, much less the analogy she had just mentioned.

“Er… it means though he is physically staying by Minister Shen’s side, his heart is with me,” Qin Xiaoyao explained.

Prince Huaiyin glanced at Qin Xiaoyao and deliberately displayed a look of disbelief.

“It’s true! Ever since we met at the Ministry of Rites, we actually met often in private.”

Qin Xiaoyao was afraid that Prince Huaiyin would not believe her, so she added, “Also, Shen Rong’s accident had something to do with my husband.” Prince Huaiyin’s eyes finally showed some interest.

“Shen Rong is actually not dead,” Qin Xiaoyao continued.”

“It was my husband who thought of a way for her and Meng Xuan to escape by faking their deaths.”

“My husband did all this because he didn’t want to marry Shen Rong.” When she said this, Qin Xiaoyao’s face was tinged with some gleeful gloating.

Her husband was really good to her.

When Prince Huaiyin saw this, his heart ached momentarily.

This couple really liked to show off their affection for each other in front of him, didn’t they?

Well, fine. He had to admit that he was a little envious.

If he could have a wife who was his kindred spirit and they had complete trust in each other mutually, his life would indeed be much more wonderful.

“Ahem… I see.”

“No wonder the Prime Minister’s daughter died so suddenly, and then the funeral was arranged very quickly,” Prince Huaiyin replied.

Qin Xiaoyao smiled again. She felt very pleased inwardly.

She had not told Prince Huaiyin about these things in the past because she wanted to protect her husband.

Only the heavens knew how upset she was when she saw her husband being misunderstood by Prince Huaiyin as an unrighteous person.

“So, Your Highness, don’t worry.

“As long as I take charge personally, I will definitely be able to persuade my husband to work for Your Highness,” Qin Xiaoyao said. She just fell short of patting her chest and giving him a promise.

Prince Huaiyin smiled and nodded.

He lowered his head and drank his tea.

After taking a sip, he put down the teacup.

“Then let’s do as you say, Marquis Xiaoyao.

“If I succeed in the future, I will definitely appoint Lord Song to be the Prime Minister. As for you, Marquis Xiaoyao, how about 1 confer you the title of Great General Overlord and let you take charge of the Great Jin State’s army?” Prince Huaiyin said as he glanced at Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao’s heart skipped a beat.

However, it was only a moment before she cupped her hands and bowed to Prince Huaiyin.

“Indeed, my husband has the makings of a prime minister. If Your Highness appoints him to be the prime minister, it will certainly benefit the Great Jin State.

“As for me…

“I’m not very interested in power.

“On the day we succeed, I hope Your Highness will allow me to resign from my military post and only retain the title of Marquis Xiaoyao.”

Qin Xiaoyao broke into a smile. “Then, I can focus on my century egg business and sell the century eggs in our workshop to the whole state, or even other states.”

She and her husband were holding one civil and one martial official post each. If they were appointed high positions holding great power, even if Prince Huaiyin trusted them in the beginning first, he would soon become suspicious of them.

She and her husband did not have the intention to rule the world, so why did they have to bring trouble to themselves?

In her family, only her husband needed to have power and influence. Once that happened, no one would dare to bully her family and that was good enough.

As for her, she could take the business path.

Becoming a millionaire would also give her a sense of great accomplishment.

If she really couldn’t hold it in anymore and wanted to experience the thrill of killing…

At that point, she could also take the initiative to seek Prince Huaiyin’s permission to let her take the members of the Warfire team to the battlefield for a rampage. This kind of thing should not be a problem.

Prince Huaiyin’s eyes flickered.

He did not expect Qin Xiaoyao to be so broad-minded.

Then, he said, “Lord Song is truly blessed.”

Since ancient times, it had always been the social norm for husbands to take a leading role while wives played supporting roles. However, in the case of Marquis Xiaoyao, it was indeed not appropriate.

Marquis Xiaoyao had extraordinary martial arts skills and was brave and resourceful. She was a natural general.

Countless men had to bow their heads down in front of her.

She could win honor for herself through her efforts.

However, she chose to give up all of this so readily just to fulfill her husband’s ambition.

Indeed, Prince Huaiyin would never allow the husband and wife to hold power at the same time.

It wasn’t just him. Anyone else who ascended to that position would never allow such a situation to happen.

Now, upon hearing that Marquis Xiaoyao was going to resign eventually, he was a little reluctant though it was a good outcome for him.

Marquis Xiaoyao was like a sharp blade. Wherever that blade touched, all enemies were swept away cleanly.

If he wanted to dominate the world, he had to use Marquis Xiaoyao.

However, Song Rui was more important to him now.

After all, before he could dominate the world, he had to ask Song Rui to help him get onto the throne of the Jin State.

“Hehe! I feel that I’m the one who is blessed,” Qin Xiaoyao replied cheerfully.

When Prince Huaiyin saw this, he sighed in his heart once more.

Why didn’t he have the luck to get such a wonderful woman?

“Alright. Then go and give it a try. 1 await your good news.” As he spoke, Prince Huaiyin raised the teacup in his hand at Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Xiaoyao’s lips curled up. She, too, raised her teacup and toasted Prince Huaiyin from afar.

Then, she finished the tea in her teacup in one go.

When Prince Huaiyin saw this, he sighed once more in his heart. “What a waste of a great talent.”

“Your Highness, I’ll take my leave now.

“I’ll come back when the matter is settled,” Qin Xiaoyao said as she stood up.

In front of outsiders, it was better for her not to get too close to Prince Huaiyin.

The longer she hid her relationship with Prince Huaiyin, the more advantageous it would be.

“Mm-hmm,” Prince Huaiyin replied and did not try to hold her back.

Qin Xiaoyao strode out of Prince Huaiyin’s tent with airy steps and was in a good mood.

Chu Jin, who was waiting outside, saw this and quickly came over.

“Lord Marquis, how was it? What did His Highness say?” he asked anxiously.

Qin Xiaoyao turned her head and looked at Chu Jin with a smile on her face.

“You have performed brilliantly this time!” she praised Chu Jin.

Chu Jin’s face lit up, and he instantly felt relieved.

“This is what I should do,” he replied thereafter.

“Then Lord Marquis, regarding the matter of Warfire sending people…”

“When I go back, I will order the men to be transferred to you immediately,” Qin Xiaoyao said generously.

In any case, the members of the Warfire team had almost finished their stipulated training. And she didn’t have any missions for them at the moment.

It would be good to let them coach the special forces teams.

Now that she had cast her lot with Prince Huaiyin, the stronger Prince Huaiyin was, the more advantageous it would be for her.

“Thank you, Lord Marquis!” Chu Jin hurriedly cupped his hands at Qin Xiaoyao excitedly.

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Chu Jin again and left quickly.

She had to quickly arrange for someone to send a letter to her husband and tell him the good news from her.

Meanwhile, Song Rui had just returned to the Prime Minister’s residence when he received a secret signal from Qin Xiaoyao’s messenger asking him to meet her tomorrow morning.

Song Rui felt both happy and helpless about this.

Prince Huaiyin had met up with him earlier, so not surprisingly, he knew why his wife was looking for him.

After giving a sigh, Song Rui put away the small message sent by his subordinate.

At this moment, the voice of a servant rang out from outside the door.

“Lord Song, the main courtyard sent someone here. Lord Prime Minister invites you to go over.”

Song Rui was surprised.

“Alright,” he answered to the voice outside the door.

Then, he tidied up his appearance and went out..
