Just when Emperor Yuan Cheng was about to continue speaking, Zhao Yi, the royal mausoleum king standing there, suddenly spoke up and interrupted the emperor's last words without hesitation. In the silence, everyone saw that Emperor Yuan Cheng looked slightly stunned, as if he had never heard of it.

Thinking that Zhao Yi would interrupt him openly, even Shangguanji, who was standing next to him, changed his expression for a moment.

Just when everyone looked over in surprise, they found Zhao Yi standing there with an indifferent expression, as if he didn't realize that doing so was suspected of offending Tianwei.

"The exquisite dance skills of Madam Shangguan today opened my eyes to the next day, and Madam Shangguan spared no effort to rehearse such a formation for my Xuanjia Army. I will also express my gratitude to you on behalf of thousands of Xuanjia Army next day - "

Facing everyone's sizing eyes, Zhao Yi always stood calmly on the table, a few steps away from him, and lightly cupped his fist towards Shangguan Yun.

Just when the girl in the palace received Zhao Yi's unabashed admiration and blushed, Zhao Yi, the center of attention in the palace, unexpectedly left his seat the next moment and walked slowly towards the palace where Shangguan Yun was.

I noticed that Zhao Yi was getting closer step by step, as confident and proud as Shangguan Yun. At this moment, I gradually couldn't suppress the tension in my heart. My heart was beating unconsciously like a drum, as if it would pop out of my throat at any time.

Not under control.

Therefore, under the dazzling jewelry-embellished jade dragon and phoenix tassel lamps in the palace, Shangguan Yun just watched the proud figure slowly coming towards her, the brilliant lamp shadows gently pouring down, shrouding his body like starlight,

When the person in front of her was three steps away from her, Shangguan Yun felt a little blushing, and faintly felt that the two of them were so close that she could almost see the exquisite and complicated beaded patterns on his indigo blouse.

Everyone looked at the pair of beautiful women in the palace who matched each other in appearance and extraordinary temperament. They felt in their hearts that Zhao Yi came to the palace at this moment to receive the gift from the emperor.

It seems that we are really going to make a good match tonight.

Just when everyone was whispering, facing Shangguan Yun who was looking at him like stars, Zhao Yi nodded slightly with a calm expression, and then without hesitation, he cupped his hands to Emperor Yuan Cheng and said: "Your Majesty, Madam Shangguan is as good as any other man.

Your majesty makes me feel like old friends at the first sight, so I sincerely ask your majesty to bear witness tonight, and I would like to introduce Shangguan’s wife as my adopted sister and form a brother-sister relationship.”

When Zhao Yi's last words fell in the main hall, everyone was dumbfounded. They could not have imagined that everyone with a discerning eye knew that the emperor and the Shangguan clan intended to marry Zhao Yi and Shangguan Yun.

The phrase "brother and sister" turned into nothing.

Faced with everyone's surprised or theatrical looks, not to mention Emperor Yuan Cheng, even Yang Chongyuan was a little surprised at this moment. However, when he saw Shangguanji's cold and unhappy expression, Yang Chongyuan chuckled softly on his lips, his eyes

There is a bit of irony and coldness in it.

"It's rare to see King Yuling praise someone so much, Your Majesty——"

Yang Chongyuan's loud laughter was the first to break the silence in the palace, and also awakened the stunned Emperor Yuan Cheng.

Looking around Xun Sheng, Emperor Yuan Cheng saw Yang Chongyuan smiling at him calmly and saying: "Since the lady of the Shangguan family has sincere admiration, Prince Yuling also intends to make her his adopted sister. It's a good thing that we feel like old friends at the first sight. It's a good thing that both parties agree. Why don't your majesty show the beauty of a man?"

Complete this wonderful story."

Seeing the undisguised sarcasm in Yang Chongyuan's eyes, Emperor Yuan Cheng looked at Shangguanji with some embarrassment, his head looking like he was in a state of concentration. Then he looked at Zhao Yi who calmly handed over his hand, and for a moment he didn't know how to speak.

Everyone knows that Zhao Yi's request is the best answer to the Shangguan family. Once the two become sworn brothers and sisters, they will no longer be able to form an in-law relationship due to love and propriety, otherwise they will be suspected of incest.

.

Sitting next to her aunt Li, Li Sui knew she had seen the right person when she looked at the tall and unmoved figure in front of her with firm eyes.

Zhao Yi's extraordinary actions not only did not completely discredit the Shangguan family, but also completely cut off the Shangguan family's thoughts as a brother and sister, thus eliminating future troubles forever.

It is indeed a good way to get rid of it once and for all.

Li Sui smiled in his heart and sighed that Zhao Yi was really deceitful.

When she raised her head again, she happened to catch sight of Shangguan Yun beside Zhao Yi. At this moment, Shangguan Yun still had his back straight and his expression calm, as proud and confident as when he entered the palace just now, except for the dazzling light in his eyes.

I didn't realize it was already a bit bleak.

However, no one knew that when Shangguan Yun, who was standing next to Zhao Yi, heard the word "sworn sister", it was like a thorn coldly clawing into her heart. There was no blood and pain, but she couldn't pull it out.

, but it also made me feel sad.

She had heard about Zhao Yi's fame since she was twelve years old. At that time, he was only seventeen years old, but he had already become famous in one battle and became a peerless general that was sung by everyone in the streets and markets. She remembers leaning on Ah Yi when she was a child.

When she was listening to her stories about emperors and generals in her mother's arms, she always felt that the affairs of the emperors in the court were too boring, but she treasured those famous battlefield generals who had made great achievements in battle.

So Aniang and the others always said with a smile, "Our Liniang will definitely marry a mighty general in the future."

She never imagined that her childhood words would come true. When she saw Zhao Yi from a distance for the first time, and saw him in such a majestic and majestic shape, even more dazzling than the famous generals in this play, she felt that

All her boudoir fantasies about heroes were brought to life in their most realistic form.

She even knew that before, she had no expectations for her future husband.

But from that moment on, she was full of expectations.

So for tonight's rehearsal, no one knew how many days and nights she had stayed up, and what kind of nervous expectations she had in mind, but everything was shattered by his indifferent words and deliberate alienation.

Facing the sneers, pity, or indifference of the people around him, Shangguan Yun tightly grasped his hand and tried his best to hold on to a bright smile, so that no one could see the slightest trace of sadness and embarrassment.

"Your Majesty, it is my great honor to have the King of the Imperial Palace adopt my daughter as my adopted sister. I sincerely ask your Majesty to witness this."

When Shangguan Yun's firm and powerful words echoed through the hall, the eyes of everyone looking at her changed from surprise to spontaneous admiration and emotion.

Only Shangguan Yun knew that she was born in the Shangguan family and was born noble. She must not let anyone see her embarrassing side at any time and become a joke to others.

This is her pride and responsibility as a Shangguan girl.

Seeing that the girl in front of the palace had spoken out, Emperor Yuan Cheng stopped thinking. He only looked at Shangguanji who had returned to calm, and said slowly: "Okay, I will be the witness tonight."

Having said that, under the gaze of everyone, Shangguan Yun behaved so generously and looked at Zhao Yi calmly.

Before, she thought she and he would become husband and wife in front of everyone, but she never thought that today they would be——

Shangguan Yun was full of ridicule for his fantasy in his heart, but his eyes calmly bowed to Zhao Yi. When the two of them bowed to each other, he solemnly called out: "Brother."

At the same moment, as Zhao Yi tilted his head, his long-term follower Zong Ming stepped forward and presented the sword in his hand, which was obviously extraordinary at a glance, to Zhao Yi. Zhao Yi calmly took it and handed it over.

Between the two of them, they said to Shangguan Yun: "I just saw that you are very skilled in sword dancing. This sword has been with me for several years. I will give it to you today as a gift to my brother."

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Li Sui looked at the sword silently. There was a plain white tassel hanging on the sword. It was the same sword that Zhao Yi carried when they met in the city that day. This can be seen from this statement.

Not empty.

Following the slender and beautiful right hand, Shangguan Yun's eyes fell on the sword with a sharp edge. Looking at the chi pattern carved on it, his eyes couldn't help but feel a little hot. He could only try to lower his eyelids and suppress the turmoil in his heart.

The emotions, trying to bring out a smile.

"Thank you, brother."

With everyone stroking their hands and congratulating each other, Shangguan Yun always smiled appropriately and returned to his seat. But at this moment, everyone found that Zhao Yi, the imperial mausoleum king, was still standing in the hall and seemed to have something to say.

Emperor Yuan Cheng, who was sitting on the seat, naturally saw it, so he asked aloud: "Zhao Qing?"

Catching the emperor's questioning gaze, everyone was surprised to see Zhao Yi bow his hands respectfully again, but this time he knelt down on one knee, and then the man's deep and powerful voice rang in their ears.

"I have something to ask your Majesty--"

Realizing that the palace had become quiet again, Emperor Yuan Cheng said "Oh?" and then asked out of curiosity: "Ai Qing, what's the matter with you? It's okay to say it."

Seeing that Emperor Yuan Cheng responded happily, Zhao Yi bowed his hands and said, "I am returning to Chang'an this time, firstly, to report the military situation in the northwest to His Majesty, and secondly, to ask His Majesty for a marriage."

When the last word blurted out, there was almost an uproar in the palace. At this moment, even Emperor Yuan Cheng was stunned for a long time. Then he glanced at Shangguanji, who had a cold look on his face, and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, which family do you want to marry?

Lady."

In the silence, Zhao Yi in front of the palace raised his head silently and looked at the Taiwei's wife Li's side unintentionally. Almost at the same time, when the eyes of everyone in the palace fell on the bright Princess Yongning, the answer was ready to come out.

"I, Zhao Yi, sincerely request to marry Princess Yongning as your princess—"

A stone stirred up a thousand waves. At this moment, everyone in the palace had different expressions. Emperor Yuan Cheng was shocked, Shangguanji was gloomy, Yang Chongyuan was calm, and Yang Yan was stunned. Only Yang Che looked at the people in front of the palace silently.

Zhao Yi's plain eyes were filled with an unobservable desolateness.

People who were still immersed in the scene just now gradually understood why King Yuling would rather marry a brother and sister than decline Shangguan's daughter. In terms of noble birth, pure blood, and stunning appearance, who else can compare to the one in the palace?

Princess Yongning?

Sure enough, heroes also have trouble with beauty.
