After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Zhou Yichen smiled helplessly. He still felt guilty about Qi Bai fighting to the end while injured the night before. "It was my mistake last time."

Chu Xi glanced at him, "Why do you say that, Your Highness? You have already tried your best. How could you have predicted the hidden arrows from others? Besides, red clothes also have their advantages. I will definitely attract many women's attention and fall in love with me when I come out today."

Zhou Yichen was amused by Chu Xi's last sentence, "Even if you don't wear red, you're still very beautiful. You still need other colors to complement you."

Chu Xi was surprised, "I just said it casually, Your Highness, why did you really believe it?"

Zhou Yichen held his forehead helplessly and laughed softly, "That's all."

Every word he said was true, but unfortunately, Qi Bai didn't believe it.

However, this relaxed mood gradually disappeared when we arrived at the Moon-Watching Tower.

When they arrived, the Fourth Prince of Western Chu had already sent someone to wait downstairs. He had booked the highest floor, which happened to be the box where Chu Xi and Rong Qingzhu had stayed once.

We walked all the way up to the top floor, where there were four private rooms. The Fourth Prince brought two people to guard the stairs, and this floor was also booked.

The Xi Chu guard was responsible for bringing them to the door, knocking on it and informing the Fourth Prince inside, "Master, the people have arrived."

The door was opened from the inside. The one who opened it was the Fourth Prince. There was a good-looking woman inside, playing the piano.

The piano music was melodious, but Chu Xi, as a modern person, could not really appreciate this kind of elegance. She treated herself as a background, following silently without saying a word.

"I'm here, please come in."

The Fourth Prince had no intention of revealing his identity. The fact that the princes of two countries were having dinner together was something that would easily lead to people making more associations. If they made a big fuss about it, that would be telling others what they were secretly planning.

Zhou Yichen, dressed in casual clothes, stepped over the threshold first, and Chu Xi walked in a step slower.

Zheng Hao and Chu Er were both standing in the room, each holding a sword.

As soon as they came in, the attendants guarding the door closed it naturally.

"I invited Prince Yan to dinner today, firstly to get to know you, and secondly to discuss a business deal." The fourth prince Qi Jun went straight to the point.

Now that people are here, there's no point beating around the bush.

Zhou Yichen looked at Qi Jun in front of him, "Business? The dignified prince of Western Chu still needs to do business with me."

Qi Jun laughed, "King Yan knows what I mean, so why play dumb? Since I dare to come to King Yan to do this business, you don't have to doubt my sincerity."

After all, this is the territory of the Great Zhou. Even if the deal fails, he won't be stupid enough to do it like Lao Wu did.

"Then tell me about the business you want to do." Zhou Yichen did not refute or directly answer Qi Jun's question, but instead changed the subject.

Qi Jun no longer concealed his desire and ambition for the throne. "I want to do a big deal. I want the position of the crown prince of Western Chu. Similarly, as long as the King of Yan is willing to help me, I will also help you get the throne."

Zhou Yichen laughed, as if he was amused by Qi Jun's words, "Your words are interesting. How can I help you with your position as the crown prince of Western Chu? And how can you influence the heir to the throne of my Great Zhou?"

Each country will certainly arrange spies in other countries, but once the list of spies is handed over, it means handing over one's own handle to others. Once the transaction is completed, the spies may also be removed.

Even if the two of them can really help each other, such an approach will undoubtedly tell the other party what the criticisms of their Great Zhou will be?

Once the two sides fall out in the future, certain fatal problems will be exploited by the other party.

Qi Jun was not angry at Zhou Yichen's words, but said calmly, "Of course, as long as Lao Wu dies and can never return to Xi Chu, then the position of the crown prince of Xi Chu will become mine if it is not mine."

Chu Xi raised his eyes and looked at Qi Jun. This man should not be underestimated. He dared to expose his ambitions and ideas in front of outsiders. This man was very courageous.

"As long as the King of Yan is willing to help me kill Lao Wu, I will definitely eliminate other powerful contenders for the throne for you afterwards."

Chu Xi frowned calmly, and turned to look at Zhou Yichen beside her.

"What the Fourth Prince said is interesting. You will help Prince Yan eliminate the powerful contenders for the throne. How will you eliminate them? Kill them all?" As Chu Xi spoke, his eyes became colder and his voice became lighter.

The death of two or three princes in a country is definitely not a good thing. She never doubted Xi Chu's intention to mobilize troops.

The support from the Fourth Prince's mother's family is not as good as that from the Fifth Prince. Even if the Fifth Prince dies, he still needs a great merit to be supported to become the Crown Prince.

Zhou Yichen didn't say anything in response to this question. Like Chu Xi, he stared at the Fourth Prince intently, as if weighing the meaning of his elimination.

"Why do you look at me like that, Prince? The fight for the throne among princes is a life-and-death battle. Isn't it better to eliminate future troubles in this way?" Qi Jun felt that this Prince Chu was a bit contradictory.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that the other party was deliberately testing him.

"I know that the fight for the throne has always been bloody, but the Fourth Prince is indeed an extraordinary man, and his methods are extraordinary." Chu Xi's words were meaningful, and Qi Jun was a little confused about what Prince Chu meant.

We must not join forces on this matter. Some cooperation is allowed, but some is not.

What does it mean to join forces with princes from other countries to assassinate princes other than the Prince of Yan?

It means that a big handle is handed over to others. Once the other party wants more, they will use it or publicize it, which will be a fatal problem.

"I can't help you with this, and I don't need you to help me." Zhou Yichen obviously thought of this. He is not a good person, and he also knows that brothers will definitely kill each other on the road to winning the throne.

But it shouldn't be done this way.

Qi Jun didn't expect Zhou Yichen to refuse so decisively. This was obviously a win-win deal.

"King Yan, I advise you to reconsider this matter."

"No need to say more. The Fourth Prince has already said everything he wanted to say, so we will take our leave first." Zhou Yichen stood up.

Chu Xi followed closely behind. She had brought a sword with her today on purpose. She had suffered a loss before because she didn't bring a sword with her, and she would certainly not forget it.

Qi Jun didn't dare to detain them. After all, this was the territory of the Great Zhou, and he couldn't afford to quarrel with them. With a dark face, he asked someone to open the door and let them leave.

"Master, what should we do now?" the follower pushed the door open and asked.

"Heh." Qi Jun stared at the untouched food and wine on the table, then picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all in one gulp. "Since he is unwilling, there are plenty of other princes in this imperial city. I don't believe that no one would be willing to make such a good deal!"

Stupid, trying to show mercy in the fight for the throne, such useless womanly kindness.

"Yes." The attendant looked outside with some concern, "Will the King of Yan tell the Fifth Prince what you said today..."

"First, send someone to keep an eye on Prince Yan's Mansion and Prince Chu's movements. If they make any moves, inform me immediately." Qi Jun narrowed his eyes with a sly look.
