Chapter 34: Temptation

Heaven Dou Empire, Imperial Capital, Heaven Dou City.

After a few years, Xue Qinghe also stepped into this place again, everything is so familiar and unfamiliar.

However, he did not rush into the palace to meet the Snow Night Emperor, but took Ning Rongrong to play in Heaven Dou City for a while.

It's a day.

The next day, Xue Qinghe was woken up early by Ning Rongrong.

"Brother Qinghe, I still want to go out and play." Ning Rongrong seemed to be tired of it, always thinking about going out to play.

Xue Qinghe smiled bitterly, he was not good at dealing with children, but how to say it, he also accompanied Ning Rongrong all day yesterday, and today, if he didn't go to see the Snow Night Emperor, then I am afraid that he would be criticized.

"Rongrong, I have something to do and need to go to the palace, how about you play in the courtyard first?" Xue Qinghe said: "I'll take you to play when I come back." ”

"Okay then." Ning Rongrong is not the kind of person who is unreasonable, she knows the seriousness of the matter, of course, it is only in front of Xue Qinghe if she is not unreasonable, after all, she knows that if she makes Xue Qinghe unhappy and spoils Xue Qinghe's affairs, then she may not have such a happy life, and she has to go back to the Seven Treasure Liuli Sect.

After tidying up, Xue Qinghe entered the palace under the escort of the royal guards.

came to the palace, but it was very unfortunate to meet Xue Haizang, who also entered the palace.

Xue Haizang is not young at this time, after all, he is only a few years younger than Xue Qinghe.

"Brother Huang." Xue Haizang hurriedly saluted after seeing Xue Qinghe, looking respectful.

Although Xue Haizang behaved very ordinary, as if he respected his eldest brother very much, Xue Haizang was still a little immature after all, and Xue Qinghe, who had come into contact with so many people and dealt with countless things, could still see the trace of arrogance in the depths of Xue Haizang's eyes.

It is the arrogance of Xue Qinghe himself.

However, Xue Haizang gave him face, so he also responded slightly, and the destination of the two was the same, that is, to go to the apse and see the Snow Night Emperor.

Since the Snowy Night Emperor was injured, he rarely went to court early, and part of the matter was also assigned to Xue Haizang to deal with.

However, it is said that Xue Haizang is dealing with it, most of it is some inconsequential things, and the ministers below have already solved it, but Xue Haizang nodded.

Xue Qinghe walked straight to the apse, and Xue Haizang also followed, walking side by side with Xue Qinghe.

"Brother Huang has been away for a few years, have you ever had anything interesting to tell your brother?"

Xue Hai looked at Xue Qinghe, and seemed to be looking for some topics.

"Interesting?" Xue Qinghe smiled faintly: "If you say something interesting, it will really disappoint you, brother emperor." ,”

"Okay." Xue Haizang nodded, not asking about such a thing.

The two chatted for a while, but most of them were chatting about something and it didn't matter.

came to the apse, and after the attendant reported, Xue Qinghe and Xue Haizang entered the hall, and the Snow Night Emperor was also waiting for the two of them.

"Son, meet your father, long live your father, long live your father."

The Snowy Night Emperor withdrew his gaze from the document in front of him and looked at the two in front of him.

first set his eyes on Xue Qinghe: "After going out to practice for a few years, there are a few more different kinds of momentum on my body." ”

Xue Qinghe said: "This is thanks to my father's cultivation." ”

"Huh." The Snowy Night Emperor smiled faintly, then put down the paperwork in his hand and said, "A few days ago, the ministers wrote to say that they needed to set up a prince. ”

Hearing this, Xue Qinghe and Xue Haizang glanced at each other, to be honest, both of them were a little surprised, why would Xue Ye say such a thing directly.

"It's all up to my father."

The answer between the two was naturally the same.

"Qinghe has led the army to fight since he was a child, and now he is even more involved in quelling bandits outside, which is indispensable." The Snowy Night Emperor smiled and said, "Qinghe, what do you think?" ”

The spearhead was pointed at Xue Qinghe.

Xue Qinghe paused and said, "Father, the son has no other ideas, and the father can decide." ”

The Snowy Night Emperor looked at Xue Qinghe for a while, but finally did not continue.

"Kaizo, you've been working hard lately." The Snowy Night Emperor praised.

"Thank you for the compliment."

.......

Out of the palace, Xue Qinghe's face was not very good-looking.

"Your Highness." The attendants on the side of Xue Qinghe came.

"What?"

"The people of the Dugu family came to invite His Highness, but His Highness was not there at that time."

After the attendant finished speaking, Xue Qinghe understood something, I'm afraid it was the old monster.

"Go to Dugu's house."

Soon, he came to the Dugu family's house.

I heard that it was His Royal Highness, so the guards naturally didn't dare to stop it and let Xue Qinghe enter the mansion.

When he came to the mansion, Xue Qinghe saw a girl who was about the same age as Ning Rongrong, but she looked much older than Ning Rongrong.

After the girl saw Xue Qinghe, she didn't speak and continued to do her own thing.

"Your Highness, please come here."

After Xue Qinghe left, the girl pulled someone and asked, "That person is the eldest prince Xue Qinghe?" ”

"Miss Hui, yes." Jia Ding nodded and said, "Old lady Dugu specially invited His Highness to come." ”

The girl shook her head and didn't ask any more.

In the backyard, Xue Qinghe saw Dugu Bo sitting on a chair, looking at the sky and drinking tea.

When Dugu Bo heard the voice, he retracted his gaze and looked at the person in front of him, and after seeing the person, he smiled slightly: "Come, sit down, and have a cup of tea." ”

Dugu Bo personally made tea for Xue Qinghe.

"You've got the leisure to get out of that place." Xue Qinghe took a sip of tea and said.

"I've got to come back, haven't I, and besides, I haven't seen you in years." Dugu Bo said.

"Did you come back for something this time?" Xue Qinghe looked at Dugu Bo and asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that I'm coming back to walk around, I heard that you went out before, and this time you happened to be back." Dugu Bo said: "So I'm looking for you to come over and chat." ”

"Chat?" Xue Qinghe chuckled: "If you want to talk, then it should be as soon as possible." ”

"Oh? You have something to say. Dugu Bo looked at Xue Qinghe with interest and said, "Let me guess...... Is it that the DPRK and China are deliberating about who to appoint as the crown prince? ”

"Otherwise, why do you think I'm coming back this time?" Xue Qinghe glanced at Dugu Bo.

"You are the eldest son, and you are very talented, so you will naturally be made the crown prince, what is there to worry about." Dugu Bo said with a nonchalant look.

"If that's the case, then why did I go out years ago?" Xue Qinghe sneered.

"Looks like there's something hidden here."
