Lingfei followed Huandong to the main hall, and saw Murong Yan and Zhang Yun already waiting. The concubines were not qualified to receive the order, so they were all waiting outside the door at a distance, but Situ Chen did not arrive.
After two cups of tea, Situ Chen followed Huo Hu and walked in slowly. His face was a little pale. Ling Fei didn't know whether he really had a headache or was pretending to have one.
When the eldest lady who announced the decree saw Situ Chen, she walked over with a smile on her face and said flatteringly: "Your Majesty, it's a happy event, a happy event."
Situ Chen smiled: "Can this king have any happy events?"
The eldest daughter-in-law glanced at him and said: "Your Majesty has appointed Princess Xiaoxi of the Cui family to the prince as his concubine. Isn't this a happy event? The emperor's kindness is so great. After so many years, the prince's wish has finally been fulfilled."
Situ Chen raised the corners of his mouth, knelt down on his knees, and said calmly: "My father-in-law declares the decree."
Lingfei quickly followed and knelt down. The imperial edict was very difficult to pronounce. The key point was just one sentence. Cui Xiaoxi will marry into the palace on the 15th of next month.
Lingfei was a little depressed. Last time, Situ Lian clearly said that it had been a year and a half, but why did people come in so quickly? So what did Tai Jian mean when he said that his wish was fulfilled...
Situ Chen accepted the order and asked Fire Fox to pay the reward to Tai Jian, then smiled and sent everyone away, as if he was really happy.
Lingfei pursed his lips, and after everyone had left, he whispered: "The emperor breaks his word and is in vain to be the king of a country."
Situ Chen glanced at her with a smile and said calmly: "Father said last time that if you mess around with Ningxiang again, Xiao Xi will be brought in."
Lingfei opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise: "You...why didn't you say anything?"
Situ Chen said nonchalantly: "What's there to say? Is this threat useful to you?"
Lingfei asked in disbelief: "Don't you want that woman to enter the house?"
"I didn't say I didn't want to. It was you who wanted to resist the order last time."
Lingfei almost became angry. Who is this? Why didn't you refuse? Why didn't you agree last time? Isn't it fun to see her holding her head against the order?
Situ Chen gently raised Lingfei's chin and said teasingly: "The princess seems very angry, is she jealous? The king's women have a lot of power, you can't get jealous."
Ling Fei shrank back and smiled sweetly: "As long as the prince doesn't mind me getting into trouble and don't let the fire fox come to trouble me, I don't have to worry about it. Congratulations to the prince for bringing back the beauty. Ling Fei will retire."
Lingfei gritted his teeth and walked out. She had a feeling of being deceived. Was he playing tricks on her? Was Chengxin angry with her? Who is that Cui Xiaoxi? Does he want to marry or not...
She walked back to Nuansi Pavilion with a cold face. Fortunately, she was not at a loss, as long as the child was well, let the man go to hell, but... she still couldn't help smashing the only two vases in the room.
Huandong was shocked and frightened. He huddled aside and said timidly: "Princess, don't be like this. As long as the prince treats the princess well, it doesn't matter how many more women he has..."
Lingfei turned around and glanced at Huandong, feeling even more annoyed. Did he think she was jealous? Did she look like an abandoned wife? Bah!
Suddenly, she rolled her eyes and said to Huandong: "I will send you to Shaomei today, okay?"
"Okay, whatever the princess says," Huan Dongshen took the princess's grievance as a grievance and wanted to do something for her from the bottom of his heart.
Lingfei leaned against her ear and whispered: This way...this way...
In the evening, Lingfei led Huandong to the pond in the center of the palace. She knew that Shaomei would come here every day to feed the fish and watch the sunset.
Lingfei came to the lake half an hour early, sat down on the ground, touched the lake surface with the toe of his shoes, and looked at the lake in the pond.
"Princess, we are here," Huandong reminded Lingfei softly and nodded calmly.
After a while, Huandong cautiously called out: "Princess, Aunt Shaomei is here."
Lingfei seemed oblivious and continued to look at the lake in a daze.
"Princess, Aunt Shaomei is here." Huandong raised his voice.
Lingfei is still motionless
"Princess!" Huandong raised his voice
Lingfei turned around in surprise. He seemed to be frightened. His center of gravity was unstable and he fell straight into the lake. It was early spring and the lake water was freezing cold. Lingfei splashed in the water and drank several sips of the lake water.
"Come on, come on!" Huandong was frightened and shouted for help while trying to pull Ling Fei. Shaomei also called for someone. Xiaoyu beside her flattened her mouth with a look of gloating.
By the time the servants fished Lingfei ashore, she was already soaked to the skin, exhausted, and extremely embarrassed.
"Who asked you to shout so loudly!" Lingfei pointed at Huandong and cursed: "Do you think I am deaf?"
Huandong knelt down with a plop and said in a low voice: "Princess, I called you twice, but you didn't hear me."
"Still trying to quibble!" Lingfei roared and kicked her: "Get out, get out of here right now! I don't want to see you again."
"Princess, princess..." Huandong cried and hugged Lingfei's calf and said, "I have been following the princess since I was a child and accompanying her to marry her to the country. If you want to drive me away, where can I go..."
"You can go wherever you like, it's none of my business! Whether you find other masters or go begging on the streets, I don't want to know." After Lingfei finished speaking, he broke away from her hand and walked away proudly.
I only heard Huandong's miserable cry
Shaomei walked over slowly, helped Huandong up, wiped away her tears, and said softly: "Stop crying, you princess is in a bad mood today, and I use you as a vent for her anger."
Huandong covered his mouth and wiped away tears
Shao Mei took her hand and said, "How about you come to my place first, and then return to Nuansi Pavilion in two days when your master is relieved?"
Huandong thanked her repeatedly and sighed in his heart, the princess is so powerful, how do you know Shaomei will definitely help her?
Lingfei made a fuss, felt a little better, and returned to Nuansi Pavilion with a slight curl of his lips.
Situ Chen looked at her with a half-smile but said: "Princess, you are good at tricks. I know that you can do what you want to do."
Lingfei suddenly flashed his eyes and said charmingly: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."
Situ Chen walked to her side, stretched out his hand to lift her chin, looked at her carefully, and said with a smile: "Princess is really smart as ice and snow, otherwise a ruined flower like you who has been touched by countless men would not be at all clueless.
Why would I be interested in Xie Fengqing?"
Lingfei was almost hurt internally by him. She bit her lips and was speechless for a long time.
Situ Chen raised an evil smile and said lightly: "Princess, don't worry, no matter how many women I accept, it will not affect your status in my heart."
There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but the sarcastic tone in it can be heard by anyone with ears.
Lingfei took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. He used her, occupied her body, and then humiliated her. In his eyes, she was just a plaything. When she couldn't get it, she was fresh. When she got it, he could humiliate her at will.
