While Ji Hongyue and his wife were talking, the maid outside came to report.
"Your Majesty, Lin Jichen, a disciple of the Sword Sect, has come to see you!"
Ji Hongyue laughed loudly after hearing this and said to the queen: "Haha, did you see it? He must be here to be the consort. I said this kid can't run away!"
The queen was overjoyed and said: "It seems that Sect Leader Leng has agreed, and Tong Yin finally no longer has to be depressed."
Ji Hongyue stood up, waved his royal robe, and said: "Take him to the Imperial Study Room, and by the way, notify all civil and military officials to come over immediately and hold a meeting all night. I want to announce a happy event."
The queen said: "Your Majesty, it's better to summon all the officials tomorrow. Call Tong Yin first and wait until the matter is confirmed before it's too late."
Ji Hongyue thought it made sense when he heard it, so he did not summon the officials, but only informed Ji Tongyin.
Hearing Lin Jichen's arrival, Ji Tongyin hurriedly changed her clothes and hurried to the imperial study room, where she happened to bump into Ji Hongyue and the Queen.
"Father, Emperor, Mother." Ji Tongyin bowed sheepishly.
Ji Hongyue joked: "My good daughter seems to really want to get married as soon as possible. Why are you here in such a hurry?"
Ji Tongyin's face was as red as blood, she stamped her feet and said shyly: "Mother, look at my father!"
The Queen smiled lovingly and said: "Silly girl, isn't this what you want? Once it is confirmed tonight, your father will announce your wedding to Lin Jichen tomorrow."
Ji Tongyin was extremely shy. She lowered her head and did not dare to raise her head. She hesitated and said: "Tongyin, just listen to your father, the emperor and your mother..."
Ji Hongyue laughed and took the lead into the imperial study room.
Lin Jichen has been waiting there for a long time."
Seeing Lin Jichen safe and sound, Ji Hongyue knew that Lin Jichen must be fine, and it seemed that Leng Feiyan must have agreed.
"Sit down." Ji Hongyue assumed the posture of his father-in-law and sat on the dragon chair.
"Thank you, Emperor Ji." Lin Jichen agreed, and then sat down.
Ji Tongyin sat opposite him, keeping her head down, blushing, and taking a few furtive glances.
Perhaps because she knew she was getting married, the more Ji Tongyin looked at Lin Jichen, the more she fell in love with him, feeling that no man in the world could compare with him.
"Does your master have any explanation for what happened during the day today?" Ji Hongyue pretended to be dissatisfied.
Lin Jichen apologized and said: "My master has come here to ask me to apologize to Emperor Ji. What happened during the day was because she was too impatient and did not consider the friendship between the two factions. This is a gift that master asked me to deliver on my behalf. Please don't let Emperor Ji go."
In my heart.”
Lin Jichen took out a blood jade coral with heartache. This thing cost him more than two million spirit stones! He felt so sad for him.
This blood jade coral was not given to him by Leng Feiyan. Leng Feiyan was already very worried about Ji Hongyue, so how could he give it to him as a gift before it was too late to beat him up.
Lin Jichen bought this coral at short notice, just to make up for the misunderstanding and to help the Sword Sect.
Naturally, the gift he wanted to give to Emperor Ji couldn't be too shabby, so Lin Jichen spent a lot of money to buy this spiritual precious blood jade coral as an apology.
Seeing this, Ji Hongyue finally showed a smile and said: "Yes, although the gift is small, it is still the kindness of the Sword Sect. I will just accept it."
Lin Jichen rolled his eyes when he heard this. Good guy, the blood jade coral bought for two hundred dollars is still too small.
However, a person like Ji Hongyue is indeed qualified to say this.
"Thank you, Emperor Ji, for your understanding." Lin Jichen thought that this guy could just calm down.
Ji Hongyue struck while the iron was hot and went straight to the topic.
"Then your master also agreed to the marriage?"
At this time, both the Queen and Ji Tongyin pricked up their ears at the same time and looked at Lin Jichen with piercing eyes, waiting for his reply.
Lin Jichen smiled awkwardly, cleared his throat, and said apologetically: "This... my master didn't agree."
Ji Hongyue's expression suddenly changed and he said, "What did you say? She didn't agree?"
"Yes..." Lin Jichen replied bravely.
"Why?" Ji Hongyue's face turned cold.
The queen also suppressed her smile and was very unhappy, while Ji Tongyin's face turned pale and she was dumbfounded.
Lin Jichen explained: "Master said that I am extremely talented and am the hope of the Sword Sect's future. He doesn't want me to be distracted by my children so early, so as not to waste my talent."
Hearing this, the queen's expression softened slightly, but Ji Hongyue remained indifferent. Instead, he sneered: "Master, what's the point? Your sword sect is not a Buddhist sect and does not allow people to have seven emotions and six desires. What's more, you are married to my daughter Tongyin."
Husband and wife only have advantages and no disadvantages. Tongyin himself is also a golden elixir monk, and his talent is not weak. After you two become partners, you will make progress with each other, and even achieve enlightenment together, which will be beneficial without any harm."
Ji Tongyin's face turned red instantly.
Ji Hongyue stared at Lin Jichen closely and said, "I ask you, if you exclude your master's opinion, what do you mean? Do you want to marry my daughter?"
This question goes straight to the soul.
Lin Jichen was speechless on the spot.
He was silent for a moment, then suddenly stood up and clasped his fists, saying: "Emperor Ji has good intentions, Princess Tongyin is sincere, and Lin knows it well, but Lin actually has his own heart, so whether it is my master or myself,
None of them...want to agree to this marriage."
Instead of dragging it out, since Emperor Ji asked this, Lin Jichen had no choice but to show his cards.
Bang!
As soon as Lin Jichen finished speaking, the blood jade coral shattered on the spot and fell into pieces on the ground.
Before Lin Jichen could feel distressed, Ji Hongyue had already pinched Lin Jichen's neck with murderous intent on his face.
"Boy, do you know what you are talking about?"
Lin Jichen felt like he was being targeted by a huge beast. His body was out of control at all. He was being held in someone's hand, like an ant, and could easily be crushed to death at any time.
But at this time, he couldn't back down or be timid.
"I know that I have received great love by mistake, and I know that I feel guilty. If death can dispel the anger in Emperor Ji's heart, then I will take this life and Emperor Ji will take it."
"Do you think I don't dare!" Emperor Ji was furious and was about to take action.
"Father, don't want it!" Ji Tongyin rushed over, grabbed Emperor Ji's arm, and begged, "Father, please let him go."
"He has failed you and deceived your feelings, and you still speak for him, get out of my way!" Emperor Ji shouted angrily.
Ji Tongyin burst into tears and refused to let go. She knelt down on the spot and continued to plead for mercy.
Lin Jichen's heart felt like needles pricking his heart, and he felt extremely guilty.
He did lie to Ji Tongyin. Although he was forced to do so, it was a fact.
At this time, the queen came over and persuaded: "Husband, you have to think twice. It is easy to do it, but if you kill Lin Jichen, you will completely break up with the Jianzong. I am afraid that Sect Leader Leng will not let it go..."
Ji Hongyue, who was getting angry, snorted coldly: "Am I afraid of Jian Zong and Leng Feiyan Bucheng? In the whole world, no matter how powerful the sect is, it will stoop to the imperial power!"
These words also exposed Ji Hongyue's aggrieved heart and grand aspirations.
At this moment, a terrifying pressure came from the sky above the Imperial City!
