Chapter 288 Sauvignon Blanc 45
Xuan slammed the table hard, closed his eyes to calm himself, and tried hard to suppress the anger that was slowly rising in his heart.
Hao Lingxi!
He was indeed his lifelong enemy.
Ever since he left Hao Ling, Xuan knew that he and A Xi would be enemies, but he thought that A Xi would at least go easy on him because of their years of brotherly friendship. He didn't expect that he was wrong.
Ah Xi really doesn't care about friendship at all.
It's really ruthless!
Ling Xi: Don’t cue me. I have always been ruthless. I am decisive when it comes to taking action against someone, without any hesitation.
"How's the rumor spreading?"
Xuan asked in a low voice, his voice was hoarse and low, and it sounded like he had suppressed a lot of emotions.
It was he who sent people to spread the rumors about Dahuang. As a game between the two, any means were feasible in Xuan's opinion.
Therefore, he was not polite to Ling Xi.
The subordinate lowered his head and reported quickly: "Your Highness, the news has spread throughout the Great Wilderness, but..."
The subordinate stopped talking and lowered his head a little, not daring to look up at Xuanxuan. He was hesitant and didn't know whether to continue speaking.
Xuan's eyes were terrifyingly gloomy, and his sharp gaze like a knife fell on his subordinates, making them feel as if their flesh was being slowly cut by a knife.
"Speak." He ordered in a cold voice.
The subordinate then spoke tremblingly: "Your Highness, Xiyan is doing well, many people are discussing.
But it was different in Haoling. The people of Haoling worshipped the Second Princess almost like a god, and the rumors we spread could not spread at all in Haoling.
Moreover, we have arranged people to spread rumors deliberately, but once the people heard rumors about the Second Princess, they would beat and kick our people, and then send them to the government. We really have no way to deal with it. "
As the subordinates talked, they found it unbelievable that almost all the people of Haoling loved the Second Princess. Even some people who didn't look like good people respected her very much.
Among them, he felt that the people of Haoling only knew the Second Princess, but not King Haoling.
After hearing his subordinate's trembling reply, Xuan fell silent.
Having been with Axi for so long in the past, he almost forgot what a magical person Haoling Erwangji was.
She had people research the art of papermaking, and sold it to the entire Wilderness at a low price, so that the people of the Wilderness could all use snow-white paper.
She invented the art of printing, and at her suggestion, the Haoling royal family paid for the printing of books so that the people of the Great Wilderness, whether human, god, or demon, could read and write.
There are also various schools where ordinary people can choose whether they want to study or learn technology, and the tuition fees are very low.
The most important thing is that she improved the grain varieties, which doubled the grain output in Haoling. Her talented staff Qianxun improved the farming tools and promoted them throughout Haoling. Now everyone in Haoling can have enough food and warm clothes.
There are many things that cannot be mentioned. Each and every one of them is a sincere and good deed done for Hao Ling and the people of the entire Great Wilderness.
Thinking of those things, Xuan finally understood why the people of Haoling revered Hao Lingxi as a god.
Xuanxuan waved his hand lightly, his expression dejected: "Forget it, if Haoling can't do anything about it, then so be it. It would be good to spread the word in Xiyan and Zhongyuan."
The subordinate boldly raised his head and glanced at Xuan, then replied, "Yes, I obey your command."
Haoling Palace, Xihe Hall.
After Ling Xi finished dealing with today's memorials, she planned to go to her mother's palace for dinner. When she arrived at Jing'an's palace, she was surprised to see Prince Haoling there.
In an instant, she showed a look of understanding. No wonder her father asked her to take the memorial back to Xihe Palace for processing in Chaohui Palace today.
It turned out that I had come to my mother's place to steal a little time from my busy life.
"Father, mother."
Ling Xi greeted the two of them, then sat down next to Concubine Jing'an very naturally, took Concubine Jing'an's arm, and smiled at her.
Listening to Ling Xi's distant father and close mother, and watching her intimately holding Concubine Jing'an's arm and acting coquettishly with a gentle smile, King Hao Ling always felt sour in his heart.
The difference between these two names and the distance in their attitudes already explain the difference between Ling Xi's attitude towards him and Jing'an.
He, the father, is always ignored.
Neither of his two daughters was close to him.
King Hao Ling: He feels bitter, but he doesn't say it.
Looking up, he noticed Concubine Jing'an's happy smile, and King Haoling was stunned again.
It seems that Jing'an's attitude towards him and his daughter is different.
"My father gave me all the memorials today. It turns out he wanted to take some time off from my mother's place."
After talking to his beloved mother, Ling Xi finally went to look at his "lonely and helpless" father standing opposite him.
King Hao Ling smiled and said, "Since you can handle it, then father can naturally be lazy."
King Hao Ling has felt that his health has been failing in recent years, so he has tried his best to leave some matters to Ling Xi.
As it turned out, Ling Xi handled it very well, better than he did.
"Ah Xi," King Hao Ling looked at Ling Xi with a gentle expression, "In my opinion, can we prepare for your Shao Jun's enthronement ceremony? You see, many things in Hao Ling are handled by you now. Wouldn't it be more legitimate to have the title of Shao Jun?"
Prince Hao Ling knew that the position of Shao Jun had been set in stone, and the Shao Jun's enthronement ceremony should have been prepared long ago, but Ling Xi thought it was too early and didn't want to do it, and then it was delayed by some things. Otherwise, she would not be the Second Prince of Hao Ling, but the Shao Jun of Hao Ling.
In fact, King Hao Ling wanted to take a bigger step. He wanted to hand over the position of King Hao Ling to Ling Xi directly, so that he could rest early and enjoy his old age.
Now, King Haoling, who still looks handsome and elegant, wants to retire.
But King Hao Ling knew his daughter well. If he handed over the position of King Hao Ling to her today, Ah Xi would be able to take her men and leave Hao Ling tomorrow to mind her own business, leaving everything to him and letting him work for a few hundred more years.
So, regarding this idea, he had the intention but not the courage.
After King Hao Ling made this suggestion, Ling Xi looked at King Hao Ling deeply.
She had reason to suspect that her father did not want to deal with state affairs and wanted to retire early, so he made this suggestion.
However, Ling Xi was really tempted by this suggestion.
I used to think it was too early to become a young prince, but now the time is almost right.
Ling Xi nodded, "I have no objection. If father wants to do it, then let's do it."
Upon hearing this, King Hao Ling was delighted and nodded in satisfaction, saying, "I will immediately ask Rushou to prepare for the enthronement ceremony, the young prince's formal attire, invitations to the various clans in the Great Wilderness, and divination to find a good day. In short, nothing will be missing. Father will make sure your enthronement ceremony is grand."
