#319 - Prelude to the Palace Coup, Davis's Methods (Part 2)

"Your Highness, why is this?" Xue Beng asked, looking puzzled, while Dugubo, who was beside him, suddenly understood and seemed thoughtful.

"It's very simple. You are just bait. After you spread the news, I will immediately order Ye Lingling and Guild Master Yang Wudi to go to the Heaven Dou Empire to treat Emperor Xue Ye.

If everything goes smoothly, Guild Master Yang Wudi and Ye Lingling will awaken Emperor Xue Ye. With Emperor Xue Ye's protection, you will naturally be safe and sound."

After a pause, Davis spoke of the second possibility and continued: "Of course, Xue Qinghe, who is eager to inherit the throne, will definitely not sit idly by and watch us heal Emperor Xue Ye. He will definitely send soul master experts under his command to assassinate Ye Lingling and Guild Master Yang Wudi.

At this time, we will use their plan against them and set a trap. I will personally escort them to the Heaven Dou Empire.

If Xue Qinghe really sends someone to attack, we will catch the people who come, and then follow the clues to weaken Xue Qinghe's power little by little, and finally completely bring down Xue Qinghe!"

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!" Upon hearing this, Xue Beng's eyes lit up, and his face, which was originally mournful, became cheerful.

"As expected of Your Highness, this plan is truly brilliant! In this way, no matter what my brother does, he will inevitably be defeated, and this prince will be safe and sound."

Xue Beng looked excited, but Dugubo, who was beside him, raised a different opinion, "This is indeed a good method, but what if Xue Qinghe does not agree to the Star Luo Empire sending people to treat Emperor Xue Ye?"

"Isn't that simple? At this time, Prince Xue Beng only needs to say 'Doesn't big brother want father to get better?', a sentence that will not only leave Xue Qinghe speechless, but also improve Prince Xue Beng's image as a纨绔公子 in everyone's minds!"

Hearing this, Xue Beng became excited again, nodding repeatedly, "So that's how it is, it can still be like this..."

While Xue Beng was surprised, Davis instructed Dugubo again, "Senior Dugu, once Prince Xue Beng does this, he will inevitably anger Xue Qinghe, and he may choose to jump over the wall in desperation and directly attack Prince Xue Beng. Therefore, during this period, I will have to trouble His Excellency Dugu to protect him at all times!"

"This is not a problem. Not only me, but I will also have Prince Xue Xing bring guards to protect His Highness the Fourth Prince at all times."

"That's best!"

After explaining some details, the group began to act according to the plan. In order to make the play complete, Davis specially received Xue Beng in the most prosperous and crowded restaurant in Heaven Dou City.

Here, Xue Beng directly knelt down to Davis, crying and begging Davis to send the Star Luo Empire's imperial physicians to treat his father, Emperor Xue Ye, and even willing to go to the Star Luo Empire as a hostage, just to ask Davis to send imperial physicians to treat his father.

This scene was seen by many people present. Now the matter of Emperor Xue Ye's serious illness has been known to many people. After all, Xue Qinghe has been handling the government affairs these days. Anyone with a brain knows that something must have happened to Emperor Xue Ye.

At this moment, seeing Xue Beng kneeling down to the Star Luo Crown Prince in order to cure his father's illness, many people changed their views on Xue Beng, and some even felt that after the incident of Emperor Xue Ye's serious illness, Xue Beng had completely grown up.

In the restaurant, Xue Beng begged bitterly for half an hour. Seeing that the number of onlookers reached tens of thousands, Davis then "reluctantly" agreed to Xue Beng's conditions, promising to send Ye Lingling and Yang Wudi to treat Emperor Xue Ye.

Of course, it was not selfless. If Emperor Xue Ye was successfully cured, not only would Xue Beng have to go to the Star Luo Empire as a hostage, but he would also have to take out gold soul coins and soul bones as thanks.

Xue Beng also promised in public that he would ask the current Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe, to take out gold soul coins and soul bones as Emperor Xue Ye's consultation fee.

As Xue Beng howled and cried in the restaurant for half an hour, the news that "The Fourth Prince of Heaven Dou knelt down to the Crown Prince of Star Luo to treat his father" had spread like wildfire, and within a few hours, it was all the rage and known throughout the city.

Many people who were familiar with Xue Beng's character even exclaimed, "Prince Xue Beng has grown up! He knows how to be considerate of his father!"

Afterwards, Davis and Xue Beng parted ways. Davis went to the Star Luo Empire to bring Yang Wudi and Ye Lingling over, while Dugubo took Xue Beng to meet Xue Qinghe and explain the whole story to Xue Qinghe.

After all, this matter has already spread throughout the entire Heaven Dou City, and even if you want to hide it, you can't hide it, so you might as well admit it generously.

"The whole story is like this, big brother, I have already asked the Crown Prince of Star Luo to take action and send someone to treat my father!"

Inside the Crown Prince's mansion, accompanied by Dugubo, Xue Beng came to Xue Qinghe's presence and spoke to Xue Qinghe generously and without being humble.

Unsurprisingly, after learning that Xue Beng had found Davis and asked him to send someone to treat Emperor Xue Ye, Xue Qinghe also had a stiff smile on his face, and a faint hint of killing intent was hidden between his eyes!

"Fourth brother!" Xue Qinghe said slowly, frankly, "I am very gratified that you have grown up, fourth brother, and know how to feel sorry for your father. But have you ever thought about whether the people from the Star Luo Empire are really trustworthy?"

Speaking of this, Xue Qinghe suddenly changed the subject, "What if the people sent by the Star Luo Empire have ulterior motives and kill our father? Wouldn't we, as sons, be harming our father?"

Just like what His Highness the Crown Prince said, big brother, he will definitely reject this proposal! His Highness the Crown Prince is really resourceful!

Xue Beng's eyes lit up. Now everything that happened has been predicted by Davis. Thinking of this, Xue Beng became more and more confident.

If it was in the past, Xue Beng would only dare to nod cautiously in front of Xue Qinghe, but now with Dugubo's protection, Xue Beng is not afraid of Xue Qinghe at all.

"Big brother is wrong. The imperial physicians of the palace have already said that they are helpless with father's illness. Since this is the case, why don't we let the people of the Star Luo Empire try?

Big brother should know that Ye Lingling's martial soul is the Nine Heart Begonia, which is the number one healing martial soul in the world! And Guild Master Yang Wudi of the Alchemist Association is the strongest alchemist on the Douluo Continent on the surface. If they take action, they will definitely be able to cure father's illness!

Why don't we let them try?"

"Ah, this..." Xue Qinghe's tone choked, and he quickly denied anxiously: "How is that possible! I just don't quite trust the people of the Star Luo Empire. If they intend to harm our father, I will be to blame!"

"If they don't cure our father, not only will we not have to pay the consultation fee, but we can also put the blame on them for harming our father. In the future, when the Heaven Dou Empire becomes strong, we can take this opportunity to take revenge on the Star Luo Empire!

But now that our father is lying in bed, unconscious, and the imperial physicians are helpless, we can only treat a dead horse as a living horse, can't we, big brother!" (End of chapter)
