Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

Chapter 550: The Heart Gradually Twisted

Kui Shili narrowed his dark purple eyes, slowly wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said coldly: "Your Highness, are you trying to trick me into sending troops as if I were a fool?"

"That's not what I meant!"

Baili Ye quickly denied it, with a trace of panic on his face. He knew that without Kui Shili's support, he would not have been able to get to where he is today.

Although Kaifeng was small, its weapons were sophisticated and far superior to the bows and crossbows of the imperial dynasty. Once a war broke out, the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, he urgently needed Kui Shili's help, both to seize power and to establish friendly relations with the Kaifeng State.

"I will definitely help you find that person! But the situation is urgent now. If I don't send troops to rebel, my situation will be even more disadvantageous. It will take time to find that person, and it will be too late to act then!"

Baili Ye spoke anxiously, moving restlessly as if he was sitting on a stove.

"I swear to God, I will help you find that person. Now lend me some soldiers to help me out of this urgent situation."

He looked at Kui Shili with expectant eyes, his heart full of worry.

Kui Shili was unmoved and sneered: "How can I trust you and lend you troops just based on your words?"

"I can sign a document!"

Baili Ye hurriedly added: "Or, as long as you are willing to send troops, I will accept all other conditions except finding someone."

"receipt?"

Kui Shili glanced at the tea stains on the table and said, "That thing will be destroyed if it comes into contact with water. If you don't admit it, where can I go to seek justice?"

"I..." Baili Ye was about to explain but was interrupted by Kui Shili.

Kui Shili's smile was cruel and ruthless: "You said you can agree to any request, right?"

Seeing a turn for the better, Baili Ye nodded immediately: "That's right! No matter what the conditions are, as long as you can lend me soldiers. I will fulfill my promise, even if I only find a corpse, I will bring it back to you!"

For Baili Ye, the choice at this moment will determine his fate:

Either continue to climb the pinnacle of power or fall into the abyss. And all this depends on Kui Shili's words.

Although I know that making conditions means a price, I am more afraid that the other party does not have any requirements at all.

Time is running out, and action must be taken immediately. Under Baili Ye's nervous gaze, Kui Shili slowly said: "Then, send Princess Thirteen here."

Baili Ye was about to agree, but was stunned by Kui Shili's words.

"What did you say?"

He asked in disbelief. Kui Shili wanted no one else but his biological sister, the Thirteenth Princess Baili Yue.

"The best way for our two countries to form an alliance is to consolidate the relationship through marriage."

Kui Shili tapped the table with his fingers as he spoke: "Now I am just implementing this plan in advance. Send the Thirteenth Princess to me, and I will lend you the troops."

There was no trace of joking in Kui Shili's eyes, only cold seriousness. Baili Ye stood up suddenly and almost knocked over the tea table.

"This is impossible!" he blurted out.

"Why not?"

"No, Yue'er! How can I hand her over to you?" Baili Ye's heart was burning with anger and he rejected the proposal without hesitation.

His mother and Yue'er are the people he cherishes most in this world. Even if he is in crisis, he is unwilling to put them in danger.

"Prince Shili, please don't joke with Yue'er! I will never send her here!"

Baili Ye's face turned pale. If he hadn't asked for a favor, he would have walked away right now.

Kui Shili sneered and said sarcastically:

"You mentioned that time is running out and suggested a marriage, but you are unwilling to sacrifice the Thirteenth Princess. Are you teasing me?"

Faced with such questioning, Baili Ye felt at a loss.

Although he was willing to pay any price, he could not do that for Yue'er. When he thought about handing her over to the other party, he felt as if his heart was broken by a knife, and anger surged in his heart involuntarily.

"No, Yue'er absolutely can't do that! She is my biological sister, and I have held her in my hands since she was a child. No matter what, this is absolutely impossible!"

Kui Shili looked at him sharply, and his eyes made people shudder. Baili Ye felt that his momentum was gradually weakening, and his heart was filled with uneasiness.

After a moment, Kuishili smiled.

"It seems that I have found your weakness. Let me tell you, in order to ensure that you do not betray me, it is necessary to marry the Thirteenth Princess."

"Your Highness, please rest assured that I will treat the princess well. She is a symbol of friendship between our two countries."

"Prince Shili!"

Baili Ye interrupted, "This is absolutely impossible! Please propose other conditions. As long as it is not about Yue'er, I am willing to take on the responsibility no matter how difficult it is!"

"So, does Princess Thirteen have an engagement?"

"No."

"Isn't that solved? What's so difficult about this?" Kui Shili seemed unconcerned.

Baili Ye was so angry that he couldn't speak. He felt that this was an insult to him, as if his dignity was being trampled upon.

Kui Shili sneered: "Who would let go of such a good opportunity easily?

I have helped you so much, it is time for you to show your sincerity. Either find that person or send the Thirteenth Princess here, the choice is yours. "

"Kui Shili!" Baili Ye couldn't help but roared in anger.

"Your Highness, time is running out. Please think twice."

There was also a hint of annoyance in Kui Shili's tone. They were allies, but Baili Ye always procrastinated and only wanted to get benefits without paying, which made Kui Shili very dissatisfied.

Baili Ye clenched his fists, trying to suppress the anger in his heart:

"Prince, I am not a heartless person. If I can give my sister away in exchange for your sending troops today, how can I guarantee that I will not betray you in the future? Will you trust a treacherous person?"

"Please find another way, Prince."

Baili Ye pleaded in a low voice. He knew he needed Kui Shili's support, but he would never do it at the expense of his sister.

"roll!"

Seeing that Baili Ye refused to give in, Kui Shili angrily slammed the table and the teacup shattered into pieces.

The guard outside the door heard the noise and was about to rush in with his sword drawn, but was stopped by a smiling maid.

"You are not allowed to enter without the master's order. Did you hear the master calling you?"

The maid spoke gently, but her seemingly fragile body exuded an extraordinary aura.

The guard hesitated, on the one hand he was worried about the safety of his master, on the other hand he did not dare to disobey the order. At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and Baili Ye walked out with an angry face and rapid breathing.

"Young Master!" The guards breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Baili Ye was safe and sound.

"Go!" Baili Ye gave the order coldly, and the guards immediately followed.

As they left, Kui Shili's voice came from inside the house: "When Your Highness has figured it out, come back to me."

Baili Ye did not stop, but became even angrier. After entering the carriage, the guard asked about the destination, but Baili Ye remained silent.

He is now like a rat crossing the street in the capital, and may be arrested and executed at any time. Where is his final destination?

If he can successfully overthrow the regime, all of this will belong to him!

Baili Ye's face became increasingly gloomy; the long period of life on the run had gradually distorted his heart.
