Jin Xueyuan confessed her innocence, and Li Chen helped her meet the prince.
This is a deal that the two of them had negotiated before.
Jin Xueyuan thought that Li Chen was just looking for an excuse to bully her, but she didn't expect that Li Chen actually brought the news.
She immediately asked: "Is there any news? Has the prince agreed to see me?"
"Meet the prince."
Li Chen chuckled and said: "It's easier said than done."
Jin Xueyuan's expression turned cold and she said, "Are you teasing me again?"
"Be patient and listen to what I have to say."
Li Chen felt tired, so he leaned on the sofa and pointed at the grapes placed on the small coffee table.
Jin Xueyuan's eyes widened and she said angrily: "What are you doing?"
Li Chen said matter-of-factly: "Feed me, young master."
Jin Xueyuan gritted her teeth tightly, wishing she could pull out a knife and stab Li Chen to death to relieve her anger.
"Don't even think about it!"
Jin Xueyuan said stubbornly: "No matter how miserable I am, I am still a princess of the Joseon Dynasty. What do you think of me? Your slave?"
"Then it will be difficult for you to meet the prince."
Li Chen said with a smile: "I even sacrificed the most important thing of innocence and lost the watermelon, and now I fall short for such a small amount of sesame seeds. How can Princess Jin be so bold and generous?"
Jin Xueyuan's breath was stuck in her throat and she almost couldn't breathe.
She was so annoyed with Li Chen that she bit her lip tightly, weighed her left and right, and finally with a sullen face, she picked a grape and handed it to Li Chen.
Li Chen frowned and said, "Skin it off."
Jin Xueyuan stamped her feet heavily, angrily, but had no choice but to give in.
After peeling off the skin of the grapes, the crystal-clear and tender pulp was brought to Li Chen's mouth tremblingly. Li Chen opened his mouth and took in the grapes and the beauty's jade fingers in one gulp.
Jin Xueyuan only felt a warm and moist sensation on her fingertips. She exclaimed and pulled out her hand, her pretty face turned red, and she didn't know whether it was from embarrassment or anger.
"You are shameless!"
Ignoring Jin Xueyuan's undeterrent scolding, Li Chen said: "Tomorrow, there will be a banquet in the East Palace, and the North Korean envoys will be invited to visit."
This sentence made Jin Xueyuan's breathing suddenly quicken.
She and the entire mission stayed in the capital for nearly half a year, trying their best to give away almost all the countless treasures and money they brought along the way. The Daqin officials accepted the gifts one by one faster than anyone else, but they wanted to
Meeting the emperor or the prince, this matter has always been full of obstacles and there is no clue.
But now that Li Chen suddenly brought light, Jin Xueyuan's first reaction was not surprise, but suspicion.
Without him, it would be an understatement.
"Really?" Jin Xueyuan asked, her tone full of doubt.
"Don't believe it?" Li Chen raised his eyebrows.
Jin Xueyuan sneered: "How do I know you are not lying to me?"
"It's just a matter of words. It doesn't leave any evidence. It's no wonder you don't believe it. But what about this?"
Li Chen took out a gilded invitation.
Jin Xueyuan took a closer look and saw that the invitation contained a banquet in the East Palace to entertain the North Korean envoys. In the lower left corner, the inscription was none other than Li Chenyin, the Crown Prince of the Qin Empire.
"If this thing is fake, there won't be enough heads to chop it off. Now do you believe it?" Li Chen put away the invitation and said with a smile.
Jin Xueyuan was anxious. She subconsciously reached out for the invitation and said, "This is an invitation for me. Take it back!"
But the invitation was not caught, but one hand held her beautiful wrist in the palm of her hand.
Along with her arms, Jin Xueyuan lost her balance and fell on her body.
Li Chen looked at Jin Xueyuan's pretty face close to his chest, and his other hand naturally covered the girl's slender figure, the curve of her lower back, and said frivolously: "Now, what do you want to repay me with?"
