Diary System—Chapter 115: The Prime Minister's Will—I Will Raise Your Wife!
The old man also understood that Dai Weisi's condition could not be delayed and had to be treated immediately. If it was postponed even for a quarter of an hour, he might truly die.
Without hesitation, the old man lifted Dai Weisi's body with one hand, covering him with his soul power to slow the blood flow. Then, he activated all his amplification soul skills and rushed toward the palace.
It wasn't until half an hour later that Dai Mubai and Dai Yuxuan arrived at the gate of Dai Weisi's villa simultaneously. The two looked at each other, their faces solemn.
As soon as they approached the gate, a strong smell of blood hit them. When they entered, they found that Dai Yichen and Dai Weisi were no longer in the villa—only coagulated blood and a chaotic hall remained.
Based on what they saw, neither could imagine what Dai Weisi had experienced. The only thing they knew was that Dai Weisi had been beaten by Dai Yichen—and it was probably very severe, judging by the sound of the fight that reached them.
Although the villas of their princes were all located within the villa district, there was a considerable distance between them to ensure privacy.
Of course, this "protection" was more of a formality—if someone wanted to attack someone, they could just do it, unless they stayed far away from home.
Just like Dai Mubai, he often didn't stay overnight at the academy. Partly because he didn't want to be beaten by Dai Weisi, and partly because he simply wanted to vent.

The Imperial Palace.
After the old man had sent Dai Weisi to the imperial doctor's care, he immediately dispatched someone to inform Dai Yutian in the imperial study.
Hearing this, Dai Yutian hurried over—not because he cared deeply about Dai Weisi, but mostly out of curiosity.
Dai Weisi, his older brother, had been seriously injured by Dai Yichen. Interesting.
But when he arrived, his expression suddenly changed, and his voice remained as indifferent as ever:
"Is this what you call a serious injury?" Dai Yutian looked at the old man coldly.
How could this be just a serious injury?
This was practically near death!
The old man's sweat poured down his forehead. He couldn't tell if Dai Yutian was angry or not, so he could only reply bitterly:
"Your Majesty, I—"
"Forget it. Just tell me in detail what happened tonight," Dai Yutian waved his hand.
"Anyway, he's not dead yet."
Moreover, based on his understanding of Dai Yichen, Dai Weisi must have done something extraordinary—otherwise, he wouldn't be in such a miserable state.
Over the past year, Dai Yutian had observed Dai Yichen's modesty and gentleness.
The old man dared not be careless and recounted everything he knew.
Dai Yutian listened carefully, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
So, this brat said he didn't want an engagement and wanted things to take their natural course?
Zhu Zhuqing wasn't hurt at all, so why did he beat Dai Weisi so badly?
Dai Yutian's way of thinking was different from Dai Yichen's.
It was precisely because Zhu Zhuqing was uninjured tonight that Dai Weisi was still alive!
If Zhu Zhuqing had been seriously injured because Dai Yichen wasn't there, what rules would he care about? Rules had always been a constraint of the strong upon the weak. Was he a weakling? Obviously not!
Although he was not as powerful as Dai Yutian, the old man knew who was more useful between him and Dai Weisi.
Of course, he couldn't rely solely on others for his safety. To put it bluntly, the reason Dai Yutian changed his attitude now was that he recognized his value. It was because of this value that they could be a loving father and a filial son.
He didn't care about this—after all, it was a good thing for him. If he had to rely on such an emperor to do things, it would reduce unnecessary trouble.
His confidence lay in the life reflection shield. He had never used it once so far. Even a Title Douluo couldn't kill him.
"Your Majesty, the Fourth Prince has spoken," the old man said respectfully.
"What?"
"He said that if the eldest prince dares to do something like this again, he will start the competition early and kill him in front of you."
Dai Yutian was slightly stunned upon hearing this.
"Good guy, so murderous?"
It seemed that the Achilles' heel of his son was Zhu Zhuqing.
"Alright, I understand," he said, then looked at the imperial physician treating Dai Weisi.
"How long will it take for him to recover?"
The imperial physician replied:
"Your Majesty, the injury to the eldest prince is very serious. External injuries are easier to treat and will heal in three or four days, but internal injuries are more complicated. According to my treatment, his ribs are almost broken, and his internal organs are damaged to varying degrees. At least three months of recuperation are needed. During this time, he will have to lie in bed."
Back at his villa, Dai Yichen didn't care whether Dai Weisi lived or died. After washing and changing into clean clothes, he sat on the sofa and took out tonight's recorded video to watch again.
He was able to handle Dai Weisi so easily tonight mainly because of the spiritual attack—Dai Weisi was unprepared and seriously injured by him.
Otherwise, in a real battle... there would be no need to waste effort.
He had no intention of hiding his second spirit eye martial soul. If Dai Yutian or others discovered when he used it, then they would find out sooner or later.
The spirit eye martial soul was originally a mutation of the White Tiger martial soul.
In truth, Dai Yichen had even considered confessing to Dai Yutian that he had the spirit eye martial soul. Once he did, would there still be a need for a royal competition?
It was completely unnecessary!
But after thinking about it, he decided to forget about revealing it. The main reason was his selfishness.
After all, once Dai Yutian learned he had two martial souls, the plan could be executed secretly in advance—without waiting for Dai Weisi and Dai Yuxuan's battle to finish.
Once secretly executed, some details might leak out.
He still wanted to see what choice Dai Mubai would make because of his existence. Would he remain under pressure, or flee like in the original story? In his opinion, that was a bit of fun.
The second reason was his interest in Zhu Zhuyun, the charming queen. From his observations over the past year, Zhu Zhuyun didn't seem to like Dai Weisi. So, after killing Dai Weisi, he could bring Zhu Zhuyun over.
Of course, this wasn't forced—after Dai Weisi's death, the engagement would be canceled, and Zhu Zhuyun wouldn't be bound by it. Their relationship could develop more naturally. As for gaining her favor, he was confident.
Although his surname wasn't Cao, he had inherited a little of the prime minister's will.
"Your wife, I will raise her!"
A fiancée was also a wife, hehe!
