458 Forced to Compete (2)

Shen Miao’s eyes darkened as she stared coldly at Huangfu Hao.

Huangfu Hao took a strange delight in making things difficult for people the most, as if everyone in the royal family of the State of Qin had a vicious nature. Shen Xin was not at odds with the State of Qin and didn’t offend Huangfu hao, but Huangfu Hao still refused to let him off. This might be a destined grudge.

Before Emperor Wen Hui could speak, he heard a chuckle. Everyone looked over. Prince Rui put down the wine cup in his hand and looked at Huangfu Hao.

His voice was low and pleasant to the ear, carrying a hint of drunkenness, but his words were not polite.

He said, “Brother Huangfu, since you like General Shen so much, you can ask the emperor to give him to you. The emperor is generous and will definitely agree.”

When everyone heard these words, they felt like Prince Rui was suggesting something.

Why would Huangfu Hao really want Shen Xin? He was only trying to push Shen Xin into trouble to see him struggling. If Emperor Wen Hui really gave Shen Xin to him, the State of Qin would have no choice but to provide for Shen Xin. However, who knew if Shen Xin was a spy of Emperor Wen Hui? The State of Qin and Ming Qi were still testing each other. Who would keep a person they did not trust by their side all day long?

Emperor Wen Hui also thought of this. He smiled and said, “The world cherishes talent. If Crown Prince Huangfu insists on wanting General Shen, I can only fulfill your wish.”

This time, Huangfu Hao was placed in an awkward situation. Instead of pushing Shen Xin into trouble, he was the one who ended up in a disadvantageous situation. It was impossible for him to take Shen Xin back to the State of Qin, but if he went back on his words, he would appear to be dishonest. All of this was because of what Prince Rui said. Huangfu Hao glared at the masked man.

Princess Ming An was on the same side as Huangfu Hao. Seeing that Huangfu Hao was in a difficult situation, she naturally wanted to help him out. However, firstly, she did not want to become enemies with Prince Rui whom she had taken a liking to, and secondly, she could not afford to offend the Daliang Dynasty. She took it all out on the Shen family and suddenly smiled at Shen Xin.

Her voice was soft and sweet, but at this moment, it sounded sarcastic. She said, “My country is too small to accommodate such a mighty general like General Shen. How about we take Miss Shen back instead. I heard that Miss Shen is the apple of General Shen’s eye and a beauty. I wonder if the State of Qin will have the honor to have her.”

Luo Tan and Feng Anning immediately grabbed Shen Miao’s hand, their gazes vigilant. Luo Ling and Shen Qing’s expressions changed slightly, and Shen Qiu and Luo Xueyan’s faces darkened. Shen Xin suddenly looked at Princess Ming An.

Shen Miao lowered her head and looked at the teacup in front of her, as if she did not hear Princess Ming An. She only watched as the tea leaves in the teacup floated and slowly sank to the bottom.

A general of a country could not leave easily, but his daughter could. If Emperor Wen Hui wanted to build a good relationship with the State of Qin, it was common for him to marry a princess or a daughter of an official to the State of Qin. However, no one was willing to marry to a foreign country, because that meant they would have no one to rely on.

Shen Xin smiled and said, “My daughter is mischievous and doesn’t deserve such good treatment.” His words clearly intended as rejection.

Emperor Wen Hui had a pensive look on his face, but he did not intend to help Shen Miao out. Shen Xin was always straightforward, and when it came to Shen Miao, his attitude was extremely unyielding.
