Because of this enthusiasm and closeness, the two parties had a great conversation as soon as they met, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
King Dingbei personally invited Zhao Yan into the palace and asked him to make the best fragrant tea.
King Dingbei asked Zhao Yan about interesting things on the road. Zhao Yan answered with a smile and then asked about the current situation in the palace. King Dingbei naturally said that everything was good.
The two chatted very happily, and they were both thinking about how to obtain greater benefits for themselves.
Zhao Yan came to Dingbei Palace to marry Lu Yingxiu, but he also knew that he should not be too hasty at this time.
It's just that he's not in a hurry, but some people are.
He and King Dingbei hadn't been chatting for long when a slightly thick female voice was heard at the door: "Is Zhao Yan inside?"
Before the guard at the door answered, Zhao Yan saw a woman with a round face, a wide mouth, a flat nose and small eyes wearing a very fancy dress walking in.
As soon as the woman came in, the elegant flower hall was filled with a rich fragrance of powder.
That woman was none other than Lu Yingxiu.
As soon as she came in, her eyes glanced at Zhao Yan.
The moment she saw Zhao Yan, her eyes lit up.
Because Zhao Yan at this time was much more beautiful than the portrait she had seen before.
In fact, Zhao Yan visited the city where Dingbei Palace is located yesterday afternoon.
It's just that in order to leave a good impression on the people of Dingbei Palace, he had a good night's rest and washed himself carefully this morning before coming to Dingbei Palace.
At this time, he was wearing a purple gold crown on his head, wearing the uniform of the Emperor of Zhao, and a white jade snake belt around his waist.
He was in a great mood because he was about to marry the woman he loved, and his face was radiant. His whole person looked like a tree in the wind, and he was naturally noble.
Lu Yingxiu looked at Zhao Yan like this and laughed: "You are Zhao Yan, yes, you are worthy of me!"
King Dingbei heard this and shouted: "Youngxiu, don't be unreasonable!"
After he finished speaking, he said a little apologetically: "Yingxiu has been spoiled by me since she was a child. Don't blame Emperor Yan."
King Dingbei is usually busy with official duties and seldom cares about Lu Yingxiu's affairs.
Princess Dingbei was usually busy fighting for power and gain, and she had high demands on her sons, but she was more laissez-faire towards Lu Yingxiu.
And because she had her own experiences when she was young, she felt that women could live a free and happy life, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with teaching Lu Yingxiu like this.
By the time she discovered that Lu Yingxiu was acting too arrogantly, she tried to correct it, but it was already too late.
It's just that Princess Dingbei feels that even if her daughter is a bit arrogant, as long as she is around, no one can bully her in the future.
So although Princess Dingbei was a little worried about Lu Xiuying's temperament, she didn't take it too seriously.
King Dingbei usually spent a lot of time in the army, and the men in the army were very rough.
Although he felt that Lu Yingxiu's behavior at this time was unreasonable, he didn't think there was anything wrong. On the contrary, he felt that Lu Yingxiu's true nature was very cute.
So although he apologized to Zhao Yan at this time, he didn't have much sincerity.
Instead, he felt that it would be good for Zhao Yan and Lu Yingxiu to get to know each other better before getting married.
Zhao Yan didn't react at first. He was very disdainful of Lu Yingxiu's behavior at this time, but he still politely said: "It doesn't matter."
After he said this, he felt something was wrong and looked at Lu Yingxiu in shock.
He turned around and asked King Dingbei: "Who did the prince say she was just now?"
King Dingbei replied with a smile: "She is my eldest daughter Yingxiu, and she is also the one whom Emperor Yan wants to marry."
Zhao Yan's eyes widened, and he said with disbelief: "She is Lu Yingxiu?"
Lu Yingxiu saw his reaction and said happily: "Yes, I am the most beautiful woman in Rongzhou, Lu Yingxiu."
"I know I'm good-looking, but you don't have to be so surprised."
"After we get married, you can see me every day."
When Zhao Yan saw her unspeakably ugly face and heard her shocking remarks, he wanted to vomit!
The woman in front of him is not the same person at all as the delicate and agile girl he saw in the first city!
His expression was very ugly. If he hadn't asked for this marriage, if it hadn't been for the great impact of this marriage, he would have turned around and left now!
He was reluctant to believe this fact, so he confirmed with King Dingbei again: "Is she really Lu Yingxiu?"
His attitude made King Dingbei a little unhappy: "How can my own daughter admit her mistake?"
"She is the apple of my eye, Ying Xiu!"
This sentence made Zhao Yan feel very uncomfortable.
But he remembered that the woman he saw in the First City was very cunning, and what happened today might be her test.
So he turned around and asked Lu Yingxiu: "Has the princess been to the First City?"
Lu Yingxiu replied: "Where is the first city? I have never heard of it."
Zhao Yan's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. He looked at Lu Yingxiu and said, "Has the princess seen me before?"
Lu Yingxiu looked puzzled: "No, today is the first time we meet."
Zhao Yan looked at her extremely ugly face and still didn't want to believe this result.
His eyes darkened, he walked up to Lu Yingxiu and reached out to tear off her face to see if she was wearing a human skin mask to tease him.
His move was very rough and pinched Lu Ying's sleeves painfully.
She yelled: "What are you doing? You hurt me!"
Zhao Yan's heart sank to the bottom at this time.
There is no human skin mask on her face, her voice is wrong, her temperament is wrong, her appearance is wrong, and even her figure is wrong!
At this point, Zhao Yan didn't know which link had gone wrong. The Lu Yingxiu he was thinking about was not the Lu Yingxiu he had in mind.
This feeling made him want to collapse!
When King Dingbei saw Zhao Yan's behavior, he was a little angry. He pulled Zhao Yan away and said, "Emperor Yan, what are you doing?"
Zhao Yan looked completely lost at this moment.
He knew that his actions at this time were inappropriate, but he could not suppress the deep disappointment in his heart.
He stared blankly at Lu Yingxiu's face that turned red from being pinched by him, and at King Dingbei's angry expression.
He tried his best to suppress the huge disappointment in his heart. He took a deep breath and said: "Sorry, I have traveled a long distance and am a little tired. I'm rude!"
When King Dingbei saw his appearance, he felt something was wrong with him, but he couldn't guess what was wrong for a while.
King Dingbei said: "I have guessed that Emperor Yan may be tired, and have already prepared a wing."
"It will take some time for Emperor Yan and Yingxiu to get married. Emperor Yan will rest in the palace for a few days, and then it won't be too late to take Yingxiu back to the Kingdom of Zhao to get married."
Zhao Yan bowed his hands to King Dingbei and said, "Your Majesty, it's better to think carefully."
Lu Yingxiu rubbed her face and said, "You're too impatient. I know I'm good-looking, so you don't have to pinch my face the first time we meet."
After she finished speaking, she glanced at Zhao Yan with some shyness and said, "I really am, you don't have to doubt it."
"I am so good-looking, and I will be your queen from now on. Are you very happy?"
