"This..." Ye Changfeng originally intended merely to secure hereditary succession for Ye Fan, to fight for a legitimate status on his behalf!
It would also make it easier for Ye Fan to take over the Tianlong Army with full legitimacy in the future!
If the royal family could provide some other forms of pacification along the way, Ye Changfeng would no longer persist in his misconduct.
What he mainly wanted was an attitude from the royal family!
Yet, Ye Changfeng had not expected that this young Emperor would directly concede so much, even going so far as to establish a new Grand Tutor Mansion!
And to give away so many elixir pills, martial arts techniques... If these were put to good use, they could completely create another small "royal family"!
What does the Emperor want to do?
The royal family is giving too much at once!
"Elder Ye, do you have any objections to our sincere apology? You can certainly raise them, whether there''s a position in Great Xia that interests you, or a lady of the royal family Young Master Ye might favor, we can discuss all of it..."
Since he had decided to be open about it, Ji Yuchen was extraordinarily generous.
The power of Prince Jin was growing more and more, and he had already begun to make moves openly in the Imperial Court.
If it hadn''t been for the fortunate coincidence of making use of the disturbance Ye Fan caused in the Provincial City to suppress Zhang Heng and Tang Zheng, Ji Yuchen felt that even he was somewhat struggling to hold up.
"Uh, it''s not that... Emperor, please wait a moment, this is a major matter, and I need to discuss it with my grandson..." Ye Changfeng bowed to Ji Yuchen, "Would the Emperor allow me a moment to make a phone call?"
Yi Yuchen''s sudden generosity caught Ye Changfeng off guard.
Having witnessed Ye Fan''s cunning and methods, Ye Changfeng decided to consult with Ye Fan!
"Please go ahead!"
Ye Changfeng nodded, took his cell phone, and stepped outside the grand hall to find a secluded corner, where he dialed Ye Fan''s encrypted number!
...
In Flower Capital, atop the Ren Family Courtyard, Ye Fan had just reinforced several formations and released several distinct Paper Men, feeling somewhat relieved, when suddenly he received a call from his grandfather, "Grandpa, what''s wrong? Is your activity in the Capital going smoothly?"
"Tonight I need to go to my mother''s place; I must get a good night''s sleep! Sigh!"
Ji Yuchen, as the Emperor of Great Xia, seemed to be a person of deep feelings and sensitivity.
Accompanied by her maids and guards, Ji Yuchen arrived at a courtyard within the royal palace and headed straight for the bedroom, "Mother, tonight I want to sleep with you!"
Whoosh!
From the bed in the bedroom, a beautiful woman dressed in a thin silk nightgown appeared in a flash and clamped her hand tightly over Ji Yuchen''s mouth, "Are you crazy? Why say it so loudly? Are you hoping everyone else will find out?"
While speaking, the beautiful woman cautiously looked outside the courtyard for any abnormalities before finally releasing Ji Yuchen''s mouth.
"What''s there to be afraid of? Everyone in this courtyard is one of ours! Pretending... always having me pretend, I''ve been pretending for over twenty years, when will I be able to stop?" There was a trace of melancholy in Ji Yuchen''s tone as she spoke, ripping off her clothes in the process.
As the outerwear and the undergarments were shed... several coils of white bandages wrapped around Ji Yuchen''s chest were also torn off, and then a pair of pale Great Phoenixes burst out...
Such a scene, if seen by outsiders, would surely make their eyeballs pop out in shock!
Oh my!
The mighty Emperor of Great Xia was actually a girl?
In the nation of Great Xia, especially within the royal family, the succession of the Emperor had always been a male affair!
Such an identity of Ji Yuchen, if it were to be known, would definitely be the biggest secret in Great Xia!
"Sigh! Yuchen, I know these years have been hard for you, but it''s something that can''t be helped! Your father and I only have you as our child. If you weren''t a boy, then the Great Xia Royal Family would inevitably fall into your uncle''s hands. At that time, would our family still have a way to survive? And what about those legitimate generals and officers who follow us, what good end would they meet?"
Listening to her mother''s nagging, Ji Yuchen showed a helpless expression, "Enough! Please, no more. Just let me relax and get some good sleep, can''t you? Wearing that thing all the time makes me feel like I can''t breathe properly..."
With the constraints on her chest removed, Ji Yuchen felt exceptionally relaxed, tumbling several times onto the Imperial Consort''s bed.
Only here could Ji Yuchen shed all disguises.
The beautiful woman, feeling helpless, walked over to the window and gave a nod to several shadows hidden in the darkness outside. She then closed the curtains and sighed long and deep, "How could I not worry about the current situation? Soon, you will have to marry the Grand Chancellor''s daughter, and you still need to figure out how to deal with that... sigh... it''s difficult..."
As the beautiful woman spoke, the image of that feigning idiotic Young Master Ye from the Ye Family crossed her mind. If she could completely win over Ye Fan to support her and her daughter, perhaps there would be a new way out?
