Chapter 367 Ambitious
Prince Jing and Xia Yechen met in the palace and exchanged greetings with each other.
"Xia Aiqing, I heard that you were assigned to Beizhou by His Majesty. The conditions there are not good." Prince Jing said, "You must be careful."
Xia Yechen smiled and said, "Thank you, Prince Jing, for your concern."
Prince Jing nodded, and then said: "I heard that you have been to the West before and conquered some foreign races."
"Yes, I have been to some places." Xia Yechen said, "But those alien races have now become our allies."
"Allies?" Prince Jing said with some disdain, "Those alien races are very ambitious and will become our enemies sooner or later."
Xia Yechen smiled and said nothing. He felt that Prince Jing's ideas were a bit too narrow-minded.
At this time, Zhou Xiaoyuan also came to the palace. She saw Prince Jing and Xia Yechen together and walked over with some hesitation.
"Prince Jing, long time no see." Zhou Xiaoyuan said.
Prince Jing nodded, and then said: "Xia Aiqing, you are so lucky to be able to marry someone like Miss Zhou."
Xia Yechen put his arm around Zhou Xiaoyuan's shoulders and said, "Yes, I feel very lucky too."
When King Jing saw this scene, he said unconvincedly: "You are really very loving. But I believe that I am very lucky. I will definitely find a better woman than Miss Zhou in the future."
Zhou Xiaoyuan felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this. She knew that Prince Jing was speaking angrily, but it also made her feel a little hurt.
She doesn't want to be compared to anyone else, especially her husband.
Xia Yechen also heard the overtones of Prince Jing's words, but he didn't pay attention.
He felt that Prince Jing was just talking angrily and there was no need to pay too much attention to it.
Prince Jing felt a little unwilling. He recalled his previous actions and felt that he had indeed lost to Xia Yechen in some aspects.
This made him feel a little unconvinced because he had always considered himself a very good person.
"I must defeat Xia Yechen in this aspect." Prince Jing secretly made up his mind.
At this time, he thought of Concubine Jia. He knew that Concubine Jia had a very high status in the emperor's heart, and she was also a very smart woman.
Therefore, Prince Jing decided to go to Concubine Jia and ask her for advice on how to defeat Xia Yechen.
Prince Jing came to Concubine Jia's palace and saluted her. Concubine Jia was also very polite to him and asked about his purpose. Prince Jing told Concubine Jia his thoughts.
"I think I can't lose to Xia Yechen." Prince Jing said, "I must beat him in this aspect."
Concubine Jia promised to help Prince Jing select a good concubine, and she would definitely be better than Zhou Xiaoyuan.
After receiving the emperor's order, the princes set off to their respective fiefs one after another. Xia Yechen and Zhou Xiaoyuan's motorcade also slowly drove out of the capital and began their journey.
Soon after, the convoy stopped by a small forest and took a short rest.
While Xia Yechen and Zhou Xiaoyuan were talking, the guards came over and reported that they had found a little girl sleeping on the carriage carrying clothes.
"Nini!" Zhou Xiaoyuan shouted in surprise.
Xia Yechen looked at Zhou Xiaoyuan and was shocked. They thought that Nini would stay in the palace and be taken care of by Concubine Shu. Unexpectedly, Nini actually followed them secretly and wanted to go to Beizhou with them.
"How can this
What to do? Zhou Xiaoyuan asked helplessly, "We can't take her back, but we can't leave her here alone either." "
Xia Yechen nodded and said, "We can only take her on the road first. After we arrive in Beizhou, we will find someone to take her back to the palace."
So, the team continued on the road, and Nini was placed in Zhou Xiaoyuan's car. Zhou Xiaoyuan held Nini in her arms, rocked her gently, and coaxed her to sleep.
After the convoy drove for a while, Xia Yechen received a letter from the palace.
The letter said that Concubine Shu already knew about Nini's trip to Beizhou with Xia Yechen. Although she was a little worried, she also knew that Xia Yechen would take good care of Nini.
Therefore, Concubine Shu hopes that Xia Yechen can manage Beizhou's affairs well and not disappoint the emperor's expectations of him.
After Xia Yechen read the letter, he felt very grateful. He knew that Concubine Shu had been caring about him, which made him feel very warm and happy.
The convoy finally arrived in Beizhou. Local officials had already heard the news that Xia Yechen was coming and came to greet him one after another.
Xia Yechen was very moved when he saw the patches on the official uniforms of these officials. He knew that these officials had put in a lot of effort and effort to govern Beizhou well.
"Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen." Xia Yechen stepped out of the carriage and saluted these officials.
"Mr. Xia, thank you for your hard work." The officials also saluted Xia Yechen.
Xia Yechen continued: "I am here to govern Beizhou well with everyone. I believe that as long as we work together, Beizhou will definitely become prosperous."
After listening to Xia Yechen's words, the officials were very moved and
Invigorate. They know that Xia Yechen is a responsible and responsible person and will definitely lead them to do a good job in the governance of Beizhou.
Xia Yechen continued: "I think the officials here are working very hard, but there are still many areas for improvement in our work."
"Therefore, I hope everyone can treat this place as their own home and manage it well."
Officials expressed that they would do their best to do their jobs and contribute to the prosperity and development of Beizhou.
Finally, Xia Yechen took out a bag of silver and distributed it to all the officials and guards.
He said: "I have seen many poor places along the way. I hope everyone can distribute this money to the local people to help them improve their lives."
Everyone's first impression of Xia Yechen was very good, which made him feel very gratified and proud. In the evening, the governor of Beizhou hosted a grand reception banquet for Xia Yechen.
At the banquet, there was a dazzling array of delicacies, comparable to those in the capital. Xia Yechen tasted each dish and couldn't help but marvel at the extraordinary skills of these chefs.
He thanked the governor and told him that there was no need to spend so much money, as long as he had an ordinary meal, he would be satisfied.
After hearing Xia Yechen's words, Fu Yin felt a little guilty. He felt that in order to make Xia Yechen's life better in Beizhou, he should do some good things as a landlord.
Therefore, he decided to give Xia Yechen the best support and help in all aspects.
After the banquet, Xia Yechen returned to his room. Zhou Xiaoyuan has fallen asleep, but Nini is still awake. After Nini saw Xia Yechen coming back, she immediately
Jumped out of bed and threw herself into his arms.
"Daddy, you're back." Nini said sweetly, "Tonight's banquet is so delicious."
Xia Yechen smiled, kissed Nini's cheek, and said, "Nini, if you grow up quickly, you will definitely become a very outstanding beauty in the future."
