The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

Chapter 137 Ji Qiu stutters

Duke Xiang of Lu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Qiu'er, don't worry. It's not too late to go after you listen to what your father has to say."

"When you meet Prince Xu, ask him if he is willing to stay in Lu and serve as an official."

"If he wishes, my father is willing to reward him with a noble title."

Prince Qiu patted his chest excitedly and said, "Don't worry, father. I will take care of this matter."

"If this son of yours cannot keep Master Xu here, I, I will call you Dad!"

Duke Xiang of Lu glared at his son, thinking, "I'm your father!" "Go! Get out!"

Prince Qiu playfully imitated the way he rolled: "I'll roll... I'll roll...

After saying this, he ran away in a flash. The king and his ministers looked at each other and couldn't help but burst into laughter...

Several people were locked in the backyard. Ziye asked worriedly, "Brother Xu, will Shusun Bao kill us?"

Zixu thought for a moment and said, "Judging from his attitude towards us, it shouldn't be the case."

"There is no conflict between our Fugui City and the State of Lu, and my mother never participated in the war between Qi and Lu. Why would they kill us?"

Besides, Ji Qiu and I are as close as brothers. As long as he knows I'm coming, he will definitely come to greet us.

"Didn't Shusun Bao say he would report this to Duke Xiang of Lu and Crown Prince Qiu?"

"My mother told me that Duke Xiang of Lu had been to Fugui City before and knew all about the strength of our city."

"If he dares to harm us, isn't he afraid that my mother will lead a million soldiers to destroy the State of Lu?"

"Don't worry, Ye'er. Brother promises you that nothing will happen."

As the two were talking, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open and Prince Qiu rushed in.

"Brother Zixu, where are you? Brother Yu is here to pick you up!"

When Zixu saw that it was Prince Qiu, he also ran out excitedly: "Brother Qiu, I'm here!"

The two were overjoyed when they saw each other, and immediately hugged each other happily and laughed.

Prince Qiu patted Zixu on the shoulder and said, "Brother, why didn't you inform me when you came? I could have sent someone to pick you up at Jiagu Pass."

Zixu smiled and said, "I just had a sudden impulse and wanted to give you a surprise."

"Okay! Brother, this is a big surprise. It really shocked me."

"This is not the place to talk. Come and move to the Prince's Mansion with your brother!"

Hmm! Zixu pulled his sister over: "Brother Qiu, let me introduce you, this is my sister Ziye."

"Ah, Zi, Ziye! Brother, I didn't expect you have such a beautiful sister!"

Prince Qiu looked at Zi Ye in surprise. What a pretty girl.

How do people look like? A nose is a nose and eyes are eyes.

He felt that Zi Ye's beauty could not be described in words, and a wave of heat surged in his heart.

Why is it that among the wives in my family, none of them is as beautiful as Ziye?

Prince Qiu looked at Zi Ye with eyes that were about to burst into anger, and he swallowed hard to stop the saliva that was about to flow out.

Ziye walked closer and bowed gracefully: "Little sister Ziye, greetings to brother."

"Ah? Ah, Zi, Ziye, no, no need to be so polite, quickly, stand up."

Prince Qiu pinched his mouth hard.

What's going on? You stinky mouth, why are you not listening? Why are you stuttering?

Seeing Prince Qiu's behavior, Zixu quickly pulled his sister behind him and said with a smile, "Brother, let's go!"

"Ah? Ah, okay, okay, let's go, let's go, let's go now."

He pulled his cheeks hard and opened his mouth hard. Damn it, what the hell happened today?

Ziye looked at the prince's fur coats of Round London and Fat London and thought it was quite funny, so he burst out laughing.

When Ji Qiu saw Zi Ye smile, he patted his stiff face hard.

Then he chuckled a few times: "Sister, sister, don't, don't laugh at me."

"Brother, brother, I've never seen such a good-looking girl before, hehe."

"Maybe, ah, it's just a little bit, that tight, nervous."

Bang! Ji Qiu slapped himself hard on the face and cursed in his heart;

You stinky mouth, what's wrong with you today? You always go against me!

Everyone chatted and laughed as they got on the carriage and slowly headed towards the Prince's Mansion.

It was already noon when they arrived at the Prince's Mansion. Ji Qiu ordered people to prepare a table full of delicious dishes to welcome Zixu.

During the banquet, he ordered his wives and concubines to come and drink with him. In comparison, he immediately felt that his own women were not as attractive.

These people are just a bunch of vulgar people in front of Ziye.

From the moment he saw Ziye, his eyes never left Ziye's body.

The more I look at her, the more I like her. The more I look at her, the more I like her. How nice it would be if I had such a beautiful wife.

Seeing this, Zixu twisted his waist hard and thought to himself, how dare you covet my wife with your character?

Ouch, it hurts so much! Ji Qiu screamed in pain, "You little bastard, you dare to twist me, look at my chicken leg."

He picked up the big chicken leg on the plate and stuffed it into Zixu's mouth.

After stuffing it in his mouth, he ran away. Immediately, Zixu chased after Ji Qiu with the chicken leg in his mouth.

Then the two of them started chasing each other and playing in the dining hall.

The female members of the family were so amused by the two men's antics that they were laughing so hard that they were rolling on the ground.

After having enough fun and finishing the meal, Zi Ye was pulled to the back hall by Ji Qiu's wives to talk, and Zi Xu and Ji Qiu also sat down to drink tea and chat.

After chatting about family and state affairs for a while, Ji Qiu asked Zi Xu, "Brother, your visit to Lu this time doesn't seem to be just to visit me, right?"

Zixu thought about it. Although Ji Qiu looked simple and honest on the surface, he actually had a complicated mind.

He is worthy of being the crown prince and still standing firm for many years. He must have his unique side.

So, he decided to tell the truth to Ji Qiu so that he wouldn't always be thinking about his sister.

He bowed to Ji Qiu and said, "Your Highness, I will not lie to you. Zixu has brought his sister to seek refuge with his brother."

"Ziye and I are attracted to each other and have already fallen in love with each other and have decided to spend our lives together."

"Because my grandmother and mother strongly opposed it, I was forced to elope with my sister and come to Qufu to seek refuge with you."

"I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will take Zixu in for the sake of our past brotherly friendship."

After hearing this, Prince Qiu was surprised, happy and disheartened. He was surprised that the two, who were siblings, could become lovers.

He was happy that he could complete the task assigned by his father without much effort.

What's depressing is that I originally wanted to beg Zixu to marry his sister to me, but it seems that there is no hope.

But he still had some hope, so he advised: "Brother, since your mother doesn't agree with you two, why not just give up."

"Besides, you two are brother and sister. If everyone knew about this, wouldn't it be a laughing stock?"

"Brother, you don't know that Ziye and I are not born from the same mother. My mother is infertile and cannot have children."

"My sister and I are both adopted orphans. We are not related by blood, so there is no problem for us to become husband and wife."

"What? You're adopted? You're not siblings! Your mother can't even have children?"

Zixu nodded: "Indeed, it is absolutely true."
