The chamberlain on the side saw that the atmosphere was not right, and quickly lowered his head to pour tea for Emperor Liang De.

He was Emperor Liang De's personal attendant and could do such things boldly without fear of being punished.

But King Xuan suddenly stretched out his hand, snatched the celadon-glazed teapot from his hand, and poured a cup of tea for Emperor Liang De with his own hands.

Emperor Liang De's expression immediately softened.

King Xuan followed and said in a slow voice: "My sin of killing is too serious. I don't have the ability to fall in love with others in this life."

Emperor Liang De put the celadon cup in his hand heavily on the case and scolded: "I don't allow you to say that! All those you killed with your sword were rebels and thieves, or people from Northern Di and Southern barbarians! Today, Qing Haiyan of Daliang River

, singing and dancing to bring peace, you must have contributed a lot to it. How can this be regarded as a crime of killing?"

King Xuan said nothing.

Emperor Liang De said coldly: "You are the son of the Tian family. It is their blessing to be able to marry you. So what if you don't love me? Sitting in the position of the princess can bring countless things to her and her family."

Going to glory, isn’t that enough?”

But soon, Emperor Liang De changed his tone again and sighed: "That's all, there are many people with mixed opinions. I know that you are worried about your illness..."

Emperor Liang De hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Just do what you want."

King Xuan bowed and thanked Emperor Liang De.

"Go back, I'm a little tired too." Emperor Liang De, like a heartbroken old father, held his forehead with one hand and stopped looking at King Xuan.

King Xuan resigned and left.

Lieutenant General Fang Chengzhong, who was guarding outside the two doors, immediately greeted him.

Fang Chengzhong whispered: "Your Highness...are you going to marry Miss Xue?"

"Yeah." King Xuan said expressionlessly, "She is the most suitable, isn't she?"

Fang Chengzhong nodded and said, "It's rare for someone to be liked by His Highness."

Do you like it?

This thought flashed through King Xuan's mind quickly.

King Xuan walked slowly outside the palace.

Along the way, we passed a high wall made of gray bricks. The high wall made the road narrow. When we raised our heads, the sky seemed to be squeezed into a thin line.

Under the high wall, countless lives were buried.

He wondered if Xue Qingyin would still be able to laugh so happily every day after marrying into Prince Xuan's palace.

"Tell Du Hongxue to send something to Xue's house tomorrow."

"yes."

King Xuan paused for a moment and then said: "Last time you mentioned that the concubine's maternal wife in the Xue Mansion was..."

"They live in Xingping County. Xue Qinghe's uncle is the magistrate of Xingping County."

"A county magistrate." King Xuan's tone was cold. It was obvious that such a big official was worse than an ant in his eyes.

Fang Chengzhong said softly: "It is said that Xue Qinghe's mother had a beautiful face. She was originally going to be sent to the palace as a maid, but she accidentally broke Princess Fengyang's cup. When His Majesty saw this, he gave her to Xue Qinghe.

The minister serves as the concubine."

King Xuan didn't care about this. He responded calmly and said: "Well, let's deal with it. Just treat it as a gift to her."

"yes."

Xue family.

Xue Qingyin had just finished putting on her makeup when a maid hurriedly came to her yard.

"The master is back. Ask the girl to go to the front to talk." The maid gasped.

I think it's an emergency.

Xue Qingyin wondered: "Isn't my father supposed to be on duty at the Ministry of Household Affairs now?"

The maid shook her head: "I don't know, either."

Xue Qingyin had no choice but to go to the front hall first.

As expected, Xue Chengdong was already sitting inside, his face was gloomy and he said nothing.

It's hard to see this look, Xue Qingyin said in her heart.

Then she crossed the threshold.

The sound of footsteps also alarmed Xue Chengdong.

Xue Chengdong asked coldly: "Why does Zhao Guogong insist that Zhao Xufeng recognize you as his goddaughter?"

Xue Qingyin tilted her head: "Because I'm smart, well-behaved and cute?"

"..." Xue Chengdong's face suddenly turned darker.

Xue Qingyin even asked him right away: "Why did daddy go home today? Shouldn't he be at the Ministry of Household Affairs?"

When he said this, Xue Chengdong's face turned even darker.

He raised his hand and said: "The posts have been sent to the Ministry of Revenue, how can I not come back?"

Xue Qingyin took a look, oh, it was the post sent by Zhao Guogong.

Xue Chengdong stood up and said coldly: "I declined the offer from Duke Zhao earlier, so why did you agree in private? Parents and elders should be involved in such a big matter, why should you make the decision? Let's discuss this matter later. There is no need to attend the banquet at Duke Zhao's house.

Already."

After that, Xue Chengdong tore up the post.

Mrs. Xue came over after hearing the news and was very angry when she entered the door. Before Xue Qingyin could say anything, Mrs. Xue said loudly: "I haven't seen you in the past, and when I came back, I was in a hurry to teach my daughter. What kind of father are you? She

I don't think there's anything wrong with recognizing another one. Although that young master is born stupid, I'm afraid he's ten thousand times better at treating his daughter than you are!"

In fact, where has Mrs. Xue ever seen how Zhao Xufeng treated Xue Qingyin?

But this is what I naturally said when I was angry.

Xue Chengdong said sternly: "She now dares to make her own decisions in everything, and you are still doting on her so much. This is not because you love her but because you are harming her. If you continue to indulge her, you will really dare to change your father one day, right?"

Xue Qingyin quickly grabbed Mrs. Xue: "Okay, okay, mom, stop arguing. I'm not angry, why are you angry?"

Xue Chengdong heard the sound and took a look.

Xue Qingyin indeed acted like a fool. Not to mention any sadness or anger, she was not even afraid at all, and her face did not even turn red.

Xue Chengdong suddenly became even more angry.

"Take Madam down, and Madam will have nothing to do with this matter." Xue Chengdong said coldly.

Mrs. Xue became even more anxious: "What are you doing? What do you want to do?"

"I have always cared about her frailty and was reluctant to beat or scold her. She has developed such a temperament and will marry into someone else's house in the future. Will you allow her to act like this and offend her parents-in-law?" Xue Chengdong seemed determined to establish his father's dignity.

Xue Qingyin said: "Okay, stop arguing. If my father really punishes me today, what will the Zhao Guogong Palace think? I think our Xue family will tear off the Zhao Guogong Palace's face for such a big deal!"

Xue Chengdong gave her a cold look: "You have learned how to use Duke Zhao's mansion to suppress your own father."

Xue Qingyin shut her mouth.

For a moment, she felt that He Songning and Xue Chengdong were not biological father and son, but they were better than biological father and son.

The two people are quite similar.

Xue Chengdong lowered his eyes and said: "How can today's matter have anything to do with Zhao Guogong's mansion?"

He raised his eyes.

Two women came up immediately, half supporting and half pulling Mrs. Xue out.

Xue Qingyin was dumbfounded.

She thought that although Xue Chengdong was annoying, although He Songning would later hate Wujiwu and Xue Qingyin, she would also hate Mrs. Xue. But at least for now... Mrs. Xue's position as the mistress of the house was extremely stable.

But now it seems...that's not the case.

Xue Chengdong never interfered in the affairs of the government, but he was still the most dignified figure.

Xue Qingyin desperately winked at Mrs. Xue, trying to calm the resentment in her heart and signal her not to worry about herself.

Then he turned his head and heard Xue Chengdong said calmly: "The Duke of Zhao will only know that I am punishing you today because you did not take good care of your sister, causing her to knock her head."

Xue Qingyin thought to herself that you are very good at making excuses!

But she wasn't very angry.

She just thought, luckily Mrs. Xue didn't hear this. Otherwise, if Xue Qinghe was regarded as a "crime" to punish her, Mrs. Xue would really go crazy on the spot after hearing this, right?

"Kneel down." Xue Chengdong said.

Xue Qingyin cursed in her heart, this is a damn era where patriarchy is supreme!

It’s no wonder that women at this time had no choice but to marry if they wanted to break away from their originally bad families. But that was often nothing more than jumping into another cage.

Xue Qingyin temporarily put away her sighs, raised her eyes to meet Xue Chengdong's eyes, and said confidently: "My legs hurt and I can't kneel down."

"Why didn't I know when you had another leg pain?"

"Father, why don't you ask His Highness Prince Xuan? He knows very well."

Since you won't let me use Zhao Guogong's palace to suppress you, then it's okay if I bring in another King Xuan?
