Chapter 295 Let\'s Cook Rice?
" Why though? I believe your and Long Ming\'s relationship is pretty good?" Qin Shuang probed. " Not to mention, both of your bloodlines are powerful, like matching pieces of puzzle. I believe your children would have a chance to gain the Imperial Bloodline of Ancient True Qilin, or might even awake the ancestral bloodlines."
" An ancestral bloodline is no different than a powerful Heavenly Physique. And both our Four Seasons Valley and Holy Qilin Empire would get benefit from it."
" So, Daughter, You won\'t agree?" Qin Shuang chuckled. " Go ahead, present your reason for refusal."
" His Majesty…" Jiang Wanxue clenched her teeth.
" Father, I just…Can\'t! It feels weird."
" Hey, You shouldn\'t use phrases like that." Long Ming cut in. " It hurts my fragile heart, you know?"
" Shut up!"
Jiang Wanxue glared at Long Ming as her gaze returned to Qin Shuang. " Father, I understand your reason. But… I want to serve the Imperial Family and help Second Brother."
" Wanxue…"
Qin Shuang rubbed his forehead as he looked at Jiang Wanxue. " Hah, So you are finally willing to call me father, eh? What a lass."
" Anyway, I have already decided and I shall talk with Sect Master Xia Yuqing about this."
" Since you didn\'t give me a solid reason, I shall not change my decision. However, I am not in a hurry to marry you both."
" So, Both of you, spend some time together like an engaged couple."
" Since His Majesty has willed, I shall obey it." Long Ming cupped his fist.
" I… I shall obey father." Jiang Wanxue sighed as she also cupped her fist and bowed.
" Both of you can leave now." As both Jiang Wanxue and Long Ming left, Qin Shuang chuckled.
" What do you think? He got a rather fascinating Blood Qilin Bloodlines."
" I never expected someone would refine the Blood Qilin Bloodline from the blood springs." An old man appeared beside Qin Shuang.
" Your Majesty\'s reasoning is right. Princess Qin and Long Ming\'s marriage can bring unexpected alliance to our empire."
" But, Aren\'t you being a bit hasty?"
" What hasty? It\'s not like they are some pure friends." Qin Shuang rolled his eyes. " I bet you have sensed that, right? It\'s not like Wanxue is completely against the marriage. She is just shy."
" Then, What about the Radiant Star Island? They…"
" They don\'t have any rights on Wanxue, or this Holy Qilin Empire." Qin Shuang snorted.
" Just wait till we assemble the sacred emblem. After that, we shall march back to the Ring of Thousand Islands."
" We have suffered enough. And it\'s time to return back to our homeland."
" As you wish, Your Majesty." The old man bowed.
Meanwhile, Jiang Wanxue pinned Long Ming on a wall outside.
" Why? Aren\'t you gloating earlier? Are you happy now?"
" Why should I not be?" Long Ming smirked. " If someone gets a beautiful wife like you, won\'t he be happy?"
" Yo-You!"
" And, Don\'t act like the Emperor didn\'t know about us?" Long Ming leaned towards Jiang Wanxue, whispering lightly near her ears.
" Sure, He might not know that we already cooked the rice. But he must have known that we already purchased rice, yes?"
" Shameless!"
Jiang Wanxue\'s ears turned red as she pushed Long Ming away. " Who cooked rice? Don\'t you think I don\'t understand innuendos!"
" Hehe, But I am not entirely wrong, am I?" Long Ming chuckled.
" Heaven forbid your father knows about my exploits. Else he will skin me alive."
" Hmph, I shall gladly watch that show." Jiang Wanxue snorted. " I mean, you can sure say not to marriage. But…" Long Ming held her waist, his voice taking a possessive glint.
" You are mine, Wanxue. I won\'t let another man go near you."
" I am not your doll. Why should I agree to you?" Jiang Wanxue rolled her eyes. But she couldn\'t help but feel warm in her heart.
" Well, go ahead. But believe me, all your suitors are going to die a very terrible death." " Is that so?" Jiang Wanxue chortled. " Fine, Enough of the chit chat. Come to my room. We can discuss it there."
" But you look pretty distant from your father. Sounds like your relationship with him isn\'t much smooth."
" It isn\'t…" Jiang Wanxue mumbled as she sighed.
" No wonder you still call yourself Jiang Wanxue, not Qin Wanxue."
" It\'s because I don\'t want to relate with the Qin Family. Other than brother Qin Chen, I don\'t like anyone else."
" Well, If you don\'t want to share, I won\'t force you." Long Ming replied.
" I know Imperial Family has some rather complicated secrets."
" Yes, For example, young emperor sleeping with the wife of Jiang Clan\'s junior patriarch."
" Well…"
Long Ming became speechless when he heard that. But thinking about all the world histories, it didn\'t sound much weird at all.
" It caused a huge scandal back then. Not to mention, my mother got assassinated afterward " Brother Chen\'s mother took me in and raised me as a daughter. But when I grew up a bit, I went to the Jiang Clan and remained with my adoptive father." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
" It must be kinda awkward, eh?" Long Ming asked with a soothing voice.
" It was very awkward at first." Jiang Wanxue sighed. " But gradually, the Jiang Family accepted me."
" I felt very guilty. So, I vowed to pay back my adoptive father and Jiang Family the honor they lost."
" I only want to make Second Brother the crown prince. After that, I shall journey to the central plains and seek my own path."
" Why not the Myriad Star Ocean or the Ring of the Thousand Islands?" Long Ming asked in a curious voice.
" Why should I?" Jiang Wanxue rolled her eyes. " I want to stay away from the Qin Family\'s affairs, not to be entangled in it."
As they entered the room, Long Ming pulled out his Heavenly Urn of Frozen Flames.
" Wine?"
" I shall have some tea." Jiang Wanxue was going to call a maid, but she was stopped by Long Ming.
" Say no more. I have something for you." Long Ming chuckled as he produced a small wooden box.
When he opened that, a faint yet calming aroma drifted out from it.
" These are…tea leaves?" Jiang Wanxue was stunned. " What kind of tea leaves are they?"
" Not fake."
" … "
Jiang Wanxue clenched her fist as she glared at Long Ming. " Can you stop reminding me about that incident for once?"
" Hehe, Alright." Long Ming chuckled. " This is Purple Sunlight Spirit Tea leaves. It\'s more than ten millennia old."
" Then, let me prepare some tea for my fiance?" Long Ming chuckled as he brought the cups and teapot.
" Bah…We aren\'t engaged yet."
Jiang Wanxue blushed as she scowled at Long Ming.
" Anyway, We have to be careful in the Sky Fountain Palace. Because, opening our ancestral vault shall determine who is going to be the Crown Prince." Jiang Wanxue spoke in a serious tone.
" Why? What are you hiding there?" Long Ming asked in a curious voice.
" Before answering that, Let me tell you the history of the Qin Family." Jiang Wanxue sighed.
