The System Make Me Near With The Emperor
Chapter 73

Xie Hongyi said as if he was sorry. "I will compensate. Hope this Young Master doesn't reject him."

Yin Si shook his head. "No need."

Xie Hongyi looked persecuted. "Why did you refuse me? My heart is sick. If I don't compensate, then heaven and heaven will punish me!" Then she pretended to cry.

Yin Si was made to panic with Xie Hongyi who was as if he was being hurt. Everyone noticed him, and if he rejected the woman it would have a bad effect on Prince Yu's good name. "Miss don't cry, I don't treat you badly." Yin Si waved his hand, probably out of concern that his words had become slurred.

Xie Hongyi was still pretending. He was already determined to take advantage of this Young Master so he was unlikely to give up.

Seeing him still grieving, Yin Si had no other choice. "Alright, so what does this lady want to give as compensation?"

Xie Hongyi raised his head. He then quickly sat down in front of Yin Si. "What if I wash your clothes? I promise after three days I'll give it back."

Yin Si was speechless at Xie Hongyi's rapidly changing behavior. He looked at the woman in front of him carefully.

Yin Si is not a fool. He knew what tricks Xie Hongyi was playing. "What do I want to do for you?"

Xie Hongyi was shocked when he heard Yin Si's question, but he acted as if he was innocent. "What does Young Master mean?"

The corner of Yin Si's mouth was raised when it made a sound. "I heard you talking to that waitress." Although she was a long distance away from Xie Hongyi, her sense of hearing was very sharp, so she knew that this woman was looking for information about her. He also knew that Xie Hongyi was pretending to drop tea to attract his attention.

Knowing that he was caught, Xie Hongyi could only smile faintly. "Young Master is very sharp." He then continued after the break.

"This lady's request is not so great. I'm just asking for your help to go see the Emperor. I hear you're his nephew."

Yin Si lifted the teacup and drank it. He smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "Miss, this is the first time we've met, aren't you afraid I'll refuse?"

Xie Hongyi also smiled, but more towards the excited. "You won't reject it." He drew closer to Yin and whispered. "Because I can cure your illness."

Yin Si's body slightly jerked.

Xie Hongyi of course knew that Yin Si actually had a disease and did not want to recover from his illness from the system information. The reason he was unwilling to heal was because Yin Si was unwilling to become an Emperor. He does not want to be confined to a golden cage every day, trapped in an environment of intrigue, or caring for women who are hungry for love. He was a young man with a free soul, unwilling to be bound by the things that constrained him.

Yin Si's body had a weak stamina from childhood, often a fever, he also suffered from coughing up blood every night. His parents had invited some renowned healers to treat, and they had to be disappointed that Yin Si was incurable.

But, not with Xie Hongyi, he could heal Yin Si.

Xie Hongyi's words were like the wind blowing into his ears, making Yin Si slightly shudder. His heart skipped a beat as Xie Hongyi learned of his secret. "Miss don't joke."

Xie Hongyi distanced himself and sat in his place back. His index finger knocked on the table. "What if I tell the Emperor? I will spread the word that there is someone who can cure the son's illness in Prince Yu's residence."

Yin Si's eyes narrowed. Instantly he felt the menacing air of this woman. "Who are you really?"

He did not know why this meek-looking woman felt dangerous.

Xie Hongyi smiled. "Only a nomad from the other side. My partner and I should meet the Northern Emperor to discuss something."

Discuss something? Yin Si asked with interest. "What's that?"

"You can't know yet."

"So how? Is Young Master willing to help us to meet the Emperor? Take it easy, I will definitely repay Young Master's kindness."

Xie Hongyi then stood up after hearing Yin Si make a sound. His face looks so bright. "I promise I will repay your kindness. In that case, tomorrow I will wait for the Young Master of the inn in front of the drunken restaurant."

Xie Hongyi had already gone a long way when Yin Si voiced out loud. "What's your name?"

Xie Hongyi turned his body that had already reached the exit. "Xie Hongyi." After that he left.

Yin Si looked at Xie Hongyi's departure with a complicated gaze, after which he sighed. Yes, after all, he had promised and as a man, abstained for him to break.

Yin Si waved his hand at one of the maids to ask for the bill. After that, he left the restaurant.

***

In the morning, Xie Hongyi, Huang Long and Dugu An sat together at the inn's dining hall. They had breakfast with warm dishes and hot tea.

Xie Hongyi asked on the sidelines they were feeding food. "How do we meet the Northern Emperor?" He blew the smoke billowing from his breakfast bowl.

Dugu An replied. His finger held the chopsticks clamping the rice. "We can go straight in by saying we're from the South. If they don't allow it, we can forcibly enter."

Hearing the way they would go to the Palace, Xie Hongyi could not bear to roll his eyes. "I know you guys have strong martial arts and some of the Palace guards are nothing, but if we do that, won't the Northern Kingdom be more hostile towards us?"

He continued. "We didn't bring an army either." Therefore no one can save them when in desperate circumstances. Also, thinking about the death of one of the great Northern Generals who was killed while being taken prisoner, Xie Hongyi was not sure that the Northmen would be nice to them.

Huang Long suddenly said. "Not really."

Xie Hongyi instantly looked at Huang Long, his gaze asking what the man meant. However it seemed, Huang Long was unwilling to continue his words, he instead returned engrossed in feeding food into the mouth.

"Your Majesty is sure of it that way? We better not do it."

Huang Long's gaze immediately fell on Xie Hongyi. "Do you have a plan?" Huang Long seemed to know Xie Hongyi had already taken an action, otherwise he might not have asked.

Both corners of Xie Hongyi's mouth were raised. He smiled like the sunshine in the winter morning. "of course. Soon someone will take us to the palace."

Shortly after, a train stopped in front of the inn. The carriage looked very luxurious and beautiful, but what made people noisier was that the coachman was wearing the token of Prince Yu's residence.

"People from Prince Yu's residence? Why are they here?" One of the guests asked his colleague.

His partner shook his head, a sign he didn't know. "Maybe they'll pick someone up at this inn." He guessed.

Xie Hongyi stood up. "Come, our invitation has come." After that he walked ahead of Huang Long and Dugu An.

The two men that Xie Hongyi had left at the dining table stared at each other. They had no other choice but to follow the woman up.

After arriving outside, the coachman asked Xie Hongyi who was standing in front of the carriage. "Miss Xie Hongyi?"

"It was me."

The driver said respectfully. "Young Master is waiting for you in the carriage."

Xie Hongyi nodded in understanding. He invited Huang Long and Dugu An to board the carriage.

As the coachman said, Yin Si was already sitting in the car while reading a book. His face looked solemn as he looked at the rows of characters inscribed on each sheet of paper. Xie Hongyi who saw him gave a smile to Yin Si. "Good morning Young Master."
