Four pairs of eyes stared at her without blinking.
That consistent expression: Don’t be in a hurry, just think about it slowly.
"This..." Ling Xiyue nodded slowly, her eyes darting around, "It's a long story..."
"Long story short." Mr. Zhan was determined to know.
"..." Ling Xiyue was speechless.
Her eyes brightened, she looked at Mr. Zhan and smiled. wavv
A bad premonition suddenly arose in Mr. Zhan's heart.
"It's His Royal Highness King Li." Ling Xiyue spat out a few words.
Beichenyan, let me lend you a hand.
Zhan Nantian's foot slipped!
What?
"Xiyue..." Zhan Yunyang's face was distorted.
Beichen Jing was speechless, and Zhan Xin'er's red lips opened in surprise.
Several people had different expressions, and their faces changed in a variety of colors.
"My little ancestor, please stop joking, okay? You..." Mr. Zhan was about to cry, pointing at her with trembling fingers, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence, "It's not good for you to like anyone, but you must like this Lord of Hell!"
"
It’s better to continue to fight to the death to marry Bei Chenjing!
Of course, it's not that Beichenyan is not as good as Beichenjing, but if his granddaughter likes Beichenjing, the old man can still save her. But if it were Beichenyan, the cold-blooded murderer, he wants to kill someone, and even the emperor and I can't stop him.
If anyone dares to pester him...
It's going to cost someone's life!
Ling Xiyue blinked, "Am I joking?"
The old man suddenly felt that he had no love in his life.
What can we do?
If there is anyone in the court who can make Mr. Zhan fearful, it is Bei Chenyan.
The relationship between the two palaces has always been on good terms, and there are no conflicts, but there is no friendship. The only thing that can be connected is that the emperor had a whim a few days ago and pointed out Zhan Xin'er to Wang Li as his concubine.
Ling Xiyue lowered her red lips when she saw the old man's "loveless" expression.
Okay, she was indeed joking.
But someone owed him money, so I just wanted to give him some support.
It's not that serious, right?
"It turns out to be the seventh brother." Beichenjing gritted his teeth secretly.
Zhan Xin'er's face wasn't very good either, and she was angry in her heart. She didn't expect that this ugly monster would actually look after His Royal Highness Wang Xiangli. Don't forget that she was the Princess Li whom the emperor personally pointed out! What qualifications does Ling Xiyue have to covet her?
The hall suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere suddenly felt strange.
"The decree has arrived"
At this time, a high-pitched voice came from outside, long and powerful.
Zhan Nantian and his son looked at each other. The imperial edict had arrived before Bei Chenjing returned to the palace?
Following closely into the hall were the eunuchs beside the emperor, and dozens of heavy boxes, which were carried and rushed inside.
With a smile on his face, the eunuch said in a long and gentle voice, "Master Zhan, please accept the order." He turned to look at Bei Chenjing, "His Royal Highness is here too..." After being surprised for a moment, he said with a smile.
, "Then let's accept the order together."
Although Beichenjing was confused, he knelt down along with the old man and others.
"Xi Yue." In a blink of an eye, Mr. Zhan saw his granddaughter still standing there in a daze, and quickly gave her a wink.
Although the old man is highly virtuous and respected, as a minister, he still needs to follow the etiquette of respect, so as not to fall into the trap of his mouth.
Ling Xiyue frowned and stepped forward.
Although I don't like it, I can only endure it for my grandfather's sake.
"No need, no need." Unexpectedly, just when Ling Xiyue was about to lift her skirt and kneel down, the old eunuch stopped her with a smile, "If Princess Xiyue likes it, just stand. Don't worry about these red tapes."
"?"
What.
Even Ling Xiyue was stunned for a moment.
Everyone's eyes fell on Ling Xiyue again.
When Heaven's decree comes to the minister's house, he may not kneel when he sees it. The eunuch has no such right to exempt himself. Everyone knows it well. And looking at the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, there is only one person who can see the emperor without kneeling. What does this mean?
Everyone was confused.
It seems that only the imperial edict can explain it!
