Shangguan Ruoxian didn't know about the rumors outside and was not mentally prepared. When he heard it, his face turned green and white, and his body was swaying as if he was about to faint.

Xiao Yunqing grabbed her hand and whispered comfort: "Don't listen to those people's nonsense!"

Shangguan Ruoli also knew that her calmness at this time was a silent attack on the rumors, so she tried her best to stay calm, but the constant filthy words made her almost collapse.

"Shut up! Anyone who spreads rumors and slanders the daughter of a hero will be killed with a stick!" Xu Jingxuan, the daughter of the prime minister, shouted at everyone, walked up to Shangguan Ruoxian, took her arm and said: "Don't listen to the nonsense of those untouchables, I

I believe you!"

As long as Shangguan Ruoxian is still the future princess and the second young lady of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, it doesn't matter whether the jade is perfect or not.

Zheng Shuyue sneered: "Birds of a feather flock together!"

In one sentence, Xu Jingxuan's eyes suddenly bulged in anger, and she wanted to slap Zheng Shuyue hard twice. However, she couldn't beat Zheng Shuyue, and she couldn't lose her composure on this occasion, so she had to swallow her breath.

Seeing that she was deflated, Zheng Shuyue didn't want to tangle with her. She chuckled and turned her head away, looking so proud that Xu Jingxuan's face turned green!

Reluctantly, he lowered his head and spat softly: "What's so proud about an old girl who can't get married, an unknown person who conquers his father, his mother, and his brother?"

Zheng Shuyue did not scold him back, but a flash of heart-wrenching pain and self-blame flashed through her eyes.

Is this admission? Shangguan Ruoli said quietly: "We are a lady, the daughter of an important minister, like a country woman, she curses behind people's backs and gossips. The tutor was taught by Ye Xiang, right?"

Xu Jingxuan was furious decisively. Regardless of the obstruction of the Prime Minister's wife, she shouted: "Smelly blind man, what did you say?"

Shangguan Ruoli said calmly: "I am blind, but my nose is very good. I smell the fragrance of midnight. Someone must have sprayed feces in my ear. The smell is terrible!"

"You!" Xu Jingxuan took a step forward, wanting to make a move.

"Jingxuan!" Shangguan Ruoxian hurriedly grabbed her, looking kind and aggrieved, "Please stop saying a few words. After all, she is my eldest sister, the Crown Prince's former Crown Princess, and the future Princess Xuan."

If Xu Jingxuan could not be used to humiliate Shangguan Ruoli, Shangguan Ruoxian would really not want to stay with this idiot Xu Jingxuan. But Xu Jingxuan likes her very much and wants to get involved with her wherever he goes.

After listening to Shangguan Ruoxian's words, the people around them realized Shangguan Ruoli's identity. Not only were they sorry that a god-like figure like King Xuan actually married such a person as his concubine, they also looked at Shangguan Ruoli with something different in their eyes.

the taste of.

"Thanks to my sister for her careful planning!" Shangguan Ruoli admired Shangguan Ruoxian's cleverness very much. He shifted the focus to her in a few words, but she forgot that the culprit of all this was herself.

The ball was kicked back successfully. Everyone remembered Shangguan Ruoli's tragic experience and couldn't help but show sympathy.

Zheng Shuyue kindly reminded: "Second Miss, your collar is open."

Shangguan Ruoxian suddenly grabbed his collar, his face turned red.

In fact, her collar was not open, and everyone looked over and saw nothing. However, her guilty expression, coupled with the recent rumors, allowed everyone to make rich associations and looked at Shangguan Ruoxian with contempt in her eyes.

Shangguan Ruoxian was about to burst into tears. Fortunately, at this time, the sound of drums was heard in the distance, and at the same time, the eunuch's voice came: "Your Majesty, the Queen is here~"

"His Royal Highness is here!"

"His Royal Highness King Xuan is here!"

…

Everyone hurriedly calmed down their emotions, bowed down and bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."

Shangguan Ruoli also knelt down along with everyone else, secretly cursing this rule that had no human rights.

The emperor's honor guard turned around the street corner, drums and music were blaring, and flags were fluttering in a mighty manner.

The honor guard had to walk for half an hour before the emperor's dragon and queen's phoenix, as well as the princes and ministers behind them, appeared in everyone's sight.

The emperor and the queen stood at the front of the welcoming procession together, and then everyone was leveled up.

Shangguan Ruoli's knees hurt from kneeling. He stood up and rubbed his knees. From the corner of his eye, he caught the prince's gaze looking in this direction.

The prince saw that Shangguan Ruoxian's face was haggard, but he looked at Dongming Ziyu with burning eyes. He did not give him, his real fiancé, a look, and a trace of disgust and contempt flashed in his eyes.

Shangguan Ruoli's cheap fiancé Dongming Ziyu stood behind the prince like an ice sculpture, his eyes fixed, his face expressionless, and there seemed to be scars on his forehead.

This man must be very boring! Shangguan Ruoli sighed secretly, thinking about how to break off the marriage and go to the world with Yuan Hao and Yuan Shaoxia. But thinking of Yuan Hao's indifferent and ruthless look, his mood dropped.

The time was carefully calculated by the officials of the Ministry of Rites, and the messengers were ordered to hurry up and deliver the news to the army. They did not dare to keep the emperor and these nobles waiting for too long.

Soon everyone heard the sound of thousands of horses galloping. The first thing that caught their eyes was the fierce battle flag, and then the soldiers galloping on their horses.

Their formations were neat and uniform, their armors shining in the sun, majestic and majestic. Everyone couldn't help but stand in awe and their blood boiled.

When Shang Gua Ruoli saw the man in military uniform at the front of the team, the original owner's emotions got weird, his nose became sore, and tears filled his eyes.

The man is wearing a silver general's armor. He has a heroic appearance, uprightness, and is tall and handsome. He is estimated to be thirty-seven or eight years old. He is tall and strong. His long military career has given his skin a healthy wheat color.

In the blink of an eye, the team came closer.

It has to be said that Shangguan Tianxiao's face is very handsome and majestic, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and a nose that looks like hanging courage. His deep and dark sharp eyes give people a killing and ruthless look. Years of licking blood on the battlefield have made him like this.

temperament.

He flew off the horse and his smart eyes fell on Shangguan Ruoli for the first time. He was surprised for a moment, then immediately the ice and snow melted, spring flowers bloomed, and his love and compassion were beyond words.

But he had to suppress his emotions and salute the emperor first, "Greetings to the emperor! The general was sent to war according to the order, but fortunately he lived up to his command and returned victorious!"

The soldiers behind them knelt down in large numbers, and their uniform voices echoed through the sky: "General, I will pay homage to the emperor!"

The Emperor Long Yan was overjoyed and stepped forward to help Shangguan Tianxiao, "Thank you for your hard work, soldiers! Get up quickly!"

Shangguan Tianxiao stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, Xirong's peace envoy followed the army to Beijing."

After speaking, he stepped aside and more than a hundred men and women dressed in traditional grassland costumes behind him knelt down and saluted: "The envoy from Xirong, pay homage to Emperor Dongming, long live, long live, long live! Long live the Empress of Dongming, thousand years, thousand thousand years.

.”

Emperor Dongming looked at the brave and fighting grassland people who bowed to him, and showed a high-spirited smile that looked down on all living beings. "The envoys of Xirong are free of ceremony. I will hold a banquet in the palace to welcome you and wash away the dust."

The eunuch who presided over the ceremony sang: "Your Majesty, the Queen will drive back to the palace~"

Shangguan Tianxiao then walked quickly towards Shangguan Ruoli, his eyes filled with mist and his voice was hoarse: "Li'er!"

"Dad!" Shangguan Ruoli tilted his head slightly like a truly blind man, stretched out his hands and touched Shangguan Tianxiao's direction.

Shangguan Ruoxian's eyes showed jealousy, but he immediately changed his eyes to pitiful tears and threw himself at Shangguan Tianxiao, "Father!"

Sudden!

There was a "whoosh" sound as a sharp arrow shot through the air, shooting straight into Shangguan Tianxiao's throat.
