Early morning, the main hall of the National Assembly Palace.
The female ministers on one side and the male ministers on the other, although their expressions were solemn, were wearing all kinds of clothes, which shows the freedom of the Cang Teng Kingdom. In fact, the entire kingdom of the Wild Abyss is like this, even the king and queen can wear whatever they want.
Follow your heart and desire.
"After many days of thinking, I have decided on an important matter."
The red-clothed monarch, who was lying on a large throne with his chest exposed, spoke lazily.
The ministers looked at each other in shock, guessing that this matter must be extraordinary.
The Protector and Prince Ling looked at each other complicatedly.
"Abolition of kneeling."
As soon as these words came out, all the ministers were shocked beyond measure, but their faces turned to expressions of joy. They had long hated this meaningless ceremony, but no one dared to object. Now, the monarch has taken the initiative to cancel it, and they are all happy.
Too late.
"Strong people are in awe of themselves, and asking others to bend their knees to prove that they are extraordinary is a sign of weakness."
Sonorous, powerful, and striking.
"The king is wise." The most heartfelt praise in Cang Teng's history rang out in the hall.
"In the future, there is no need to say words like "Ying Ming" and "Blessings". I will be able to tell whether you are loyal or not. No one's thoughts can escape my eyes."
Naturally, these words were spoken to the envoys protecting the city, the King of Tombs, and some ministers.
Looks of surprise appeared on the faces of the ministers again. They had long been tired of the worthless words they had to say several times a day, even to the point of wanting to vomit.
"In view of the fact that everyone has to stand all morning for each discussion and is exhausted, I have decided to prepare tables and chairs in the palace. From now on, everyone only needs to sit down to discuss matters, and can revise and write down important matters on the table."
The reactions below were predictable, with several veterans even wiping away tears.
When the discussion was over, the ministers left one after another.
"Envoy Protector and Envoy Liu Yi, please stay."
Qin Weiluo and Liu Ziwei turned around and looked inexplicably at the monarch who was as beautiful as a male fox on the throne.
"I heard that Liu Yishi's second daughter is unmarried. Can you tell me more about the situation?"
Qin Weiluo was startled and began to guess what Shao Kefan wanted to do. Could it be that his affection for Jian Xin was discovered by him?
He didn't know that yesterday when he went to the wilderness to look for Jian Xin, everything that happened between them was witnessed by an invisible person.
"My daughter Zhao Lian is twenty years old. She graduated from the National Study School the year before last and is now leading the troops in Jinghu Mountain."
Shao Kefan smiled with satisfaction, completely ignoring Hu Zeshi's sad eyes and furrowed brows.
"Hu Zeshi is already twenty-five years old and has not yet been married. It is better for me to make the decision and betroth Zhao Lian to Hu Ze Shi. Hu Ze Shi is a talented person, and Zhao Lian is also a beauty selected from a thousand. She is talented and beautiful, so the two of them are just right.
how about?"
"Oh, this... I have been dreaming of this for a long time. Being able to marry the protector is a blessing that my little girl gained from her previous life." Liu Ziwei was so excited that he almost danced.
"Thank you for your kindness, your Majesty. This marriage is certainly a good one. But I already have a lover, and I have already made a lifelong commitment. If I marry Zhao Lian, I will be betraying my trust and causing ridicule." Qin Weiluo looked calm, but there was an undercurrent, and he wanted to
Chop the man on the throne into mincemeat.
Liu Ziwei looked very disappointed, "King, this..."
"Oh? I wonder whose lady the protector's lover is?" Shao Kefan seemed to have expected that he would refuse like this.
"Does the king also have to deal with matters of personal love?" Qin Weiluo snorted coldly.
"Since Zhao Lian was betrothed to the Protector just now, the Protector said that he has someone he likes. I want to confirm it and give Liu Yi an explanation."
"Haha, what if I don't say it?" The guardian stared at the person on the throne fearlessly, with a hint of provocation.
The worst case scenario is death.
Liu Ziwei glanced at him in surprise.
"Oh, why should the protector be so serious? If you don't want to say it, of course you can't force it. It's just that Zhao Lian is a beauty in the world, and it would be a pity not to marry him. Let's do this! Call Zhaolian back, and the protector will look at it, compare it with the one he likes, and then
It's not too late to decide for the rest of your life." Shao Kefan's eyes flashed with the light of victory.
"This is a good idea. I will call Zhao Lian back immediately." Liu Ziwei ignited hope and naturally would not miss the opportunity to get married to the protector who had the same status as King Ling.
"No need, no matter how beautiful she is, I won't take another look at her, Shao Kefan, don't go too far." The guardian shook his sleeves angrily and walked out of the hall angrily.
"Hey, Protector..." Liu Ziwei shouted hurriedly.
Shao Kefan looked at his back indifferently and raised his eyebrows. "Liu Yishi, please call Zhao Lian back first, and I will make arrangements for myself."
"Yes." With the king's words, Liu Yi was confident even if the guardian was unwilling.
After handling today's affairs, Shao Kefan went to Yiwei Hall as usual, and an angry face came to him. "I heard that you forced the protector to marry Zhao Lian. Is this true?"
"What does this have to do with you? Look at you, you are so angry." Shao Kefan smiled and reached out to touch her face.
"You destroyed his country and asked him to marry a woman he doesn't love. It's too much."
"He hasn't met Zhao Lian yet, how do you know he doesn't like it?" Shao Kefan sneered, his sly eyes seeming to penetrate everything.
This fox! He does whatever he wants without caring about other people's feelings.
Jian Xin walked to the bedroom angrily, sat in front of the mirror, and looked at her reddish cheeks.
He opened the curtain and walked in, holding her shoulders with both hands, "Why do you care about him so much?"
"Please don't use your so-called cleverness to guess me." She turned her head away, not wanting to see that calculating face.
"Of course I believe you. It's just that the protector is alone in Cangteng and has no one to rely on. I held a red thread for him to relieve him of the pain of loneliness. How could I go wrong?"
Shao Kefan had a questioning look on his face, but his eyes were searching.
He must have known something, nothing had escaped him yet.
"Sigh... Of course I can't tell you anything." She let out a long sigh, "What if he still doesn't like Liu Zhaolian after meeting her."
It would be great if Qin Weiluo and Zhao Lian fall in love and get married.
It's just that from the beginning, this matter was carried out under the pressure of the monarch. If it didn't work, it would be a mess, and if it worked, it would be a fly in the ointment.
"Haha, don't worry, he will marry Zhao Lian."
Shao Kefan's understated and confident tone surprised her: What kind of conspiracy is he trying to play again?
A few days later, when she was going to find Yaka in the backyard of the palace, a smiling woman walked into the Yiwei Palace.
Her hair, which reaches her waist, is lightly tied with white silk flowers below her shoulders. She is casual and natural, just like a woman from the Three Kingdoms in the Pangu Yang Dynasty. Her body is covered in a pink dress, and she is full of charm as she sways with her steps, and her skin is like
It is made of fat, with teeth like gourd rhinoceros, and although its eyes are not big, they are as charming as a fox, and its gaze is astonishing.
It is indeed one of a kind.
"Who are you?" Jian Xin looked her up and down, but she didn't recognize this beauty.
"Are you Jian Xin? My name is Zhao Lian. The king has mentioned me to you."
The woman spoke enthusiastically.
It turned out to be her.
"I mentioned it, please take a seat..." Jian Xin was about to lead her forward to take a seat, but she declined, "The king asked me to come here to ask you a favor."
"If you need anything, just say it."
"This..." Zhao Lian looked very shy.
"Say it! I won't eat you." Jian Xin said with a smile, somewhat liking her shy look.
"I heard that the king granted me a marriage, so I came from Jinghu Mountain, but I haven't seen the guardian yet, so I asked my sister to take me there."
Shao Kefan, you did it on purpose.
Jian Xin cursed inwardly.
"It's okay, I have a relationship with him twice, and we are relatively familiar with him."
She took Zhao Lian to the entrance of Fu Han Palace, "You wait a moment, I'll go tell him and let him be prepared."
"Okay." Zhao Lian's cheeks were as pink as her clothes.
In front of the study room, Qin Weiluo was concentrating on drawing a picture and did not notice anyone coming behind him.
However, the woman in the painting has an oval face with lightly swept eyebrows, and a pair of big eyes with a look of sadness, just like the slow ripples on the deep water. If you look carefully, you can see that there is a bit of heroism hidden in it, and the bridge of her nose is as beautiful as a small jade.
Her plump lips were slightly reddish, and her cheeks were fair and slightly red, like pear blossoms in the morning sun.
The alluring beauty was dressed in a light yellow dress, with a white floral skirt wrapped around the breast. Her black hair was casually scattered, and the hibiscus came out of the clear water, which was naturally carved.
Her heart moved and she turned around to leave.
"Jian Xin." The guardian called to her, "I know it's you who is here."
"Zhao Lian is here, please put the painting away! She is waiting outside the door."
"What? Tell her to go back, I don't want to see her."
Qin Weiluo deliberately lowered his voice, but he burst out with anger and the air suddenly became tense.
"Zhao Lian will be sad when she hears this. She came back from Jinghu Mountain just for you." Jian Xin walked to the door of the study and took a look outside the door.
Fortunately, Zhao Lian still blushed and waited quietly.
"Haha, go back and tell Shao Kefan that if he does this because he is worried that I will get you, then I will despise him."
"You...Zhaolian is waiting at the door. You can meet her at least..." Jian Xin deliberately ignored his words, bit her lip and stopped talking.
"Are you making it clear that I like you? Rather than that, it's better to tell Shao Kefan."
Qin Weiluo leaned back in his seat, holding the painting scroll in his hand and looking at it carefully, "The fairy in the painting is so beautiful."
"Don't make things difficult for me." Anger ignited in Jian Xin's chest.
Qin Weiluo turned around and looked at her quietly for a while, his eyes were calm and calm, like a deep pool, hiding something too deep, "Okay, you ask her to come in!" He rolled up the painting.
, put it vertically in the bookcase.
Jian Xin was stunned and walked out of the study. "Zhao Lian, I kept you waiting for a long time. He is in the study and wants you to come in."
Jian Xin smiled and apologized to Zhao Lian, who was a little impatient.
"It's okay, I still want to thank you!" A smile bloomed on Zhaolian's face, and the blush on his face deepened, "Then, I'll go in."
"Go! Bless you." Jian Xin walked down the steps slowly, recalling the painting, but she couldn't calm down.
Shao Kefan, Yaka, Qin Weiluo, why?
She is not a playboy. In college, there are many suitors, but she has not had feelings for anyone yet. They just covet her beauty, just because of loneliness, and just pursue the vanity of having a beautiful woman in her arms.
Shao Kefan, because of her personality. Yaka, because of the ups and downs of more than ten years. Qin Weiluo, just because of her sympathetic look.
They fell deeply in love with her, and she considered herself to be devoted and loyal to love, but she found it difficult to truly reject the enthusiasm of those who came after her.
But there is no doubt that the person she loves most will always be the king in red like a fox.
