The beaded curtain ten feet away was gently lifted, and a girl dressed in rich palace clothes gradually revealed her face.
She was a girl who looked to be no more than twenty years old. Her pale and slightly sickly face had a kind of indifference and calmness that did not match her age. There was no expression on her face.
But this is an amazing girl. Her plain and expressionless face makes it easier to see that her appearance and facial features are so impeccable. You can't find even the slightest flaw, just like a perfect piece of jewelry.
artwork.
It seems that such an appearance can only appear in people's imagination, because you simply cannot believe that there is such a perfect face in the world, so that anyone who looks at it will feel doubtful and unreal.
But what makes people feel even more unreal is her indifferent state.
It was a state that Xia Shang had never seen before, as if everything around her was not of her concern, and it seemed that no one could make her change her mood at all.
Standing in the dark palace, alone and out of tune with everything else. Like a swan standing on the lake at night, she was the only one with a little light in the darkness.
Even without saying anything, this feeling gives people a sense of heartache and pity.
She stood for a long time, not looking at the people around her for even half a moment.
Xia Shang looked at her strangely.
What does it mean when my heart says "Emperor"?
"This is the benefit I give you, a beautiful woman who can make any woman feel ashamed."
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"I give her to you, and she will be yours from now on. Your daily life in the capital will be taken care of by her. However, her identity will be that of your first wife, and I hope you can treat her well."
"This... this is impossible." Xia Shang said without even thinking.
"I'm not following your opinion!" The emperor's voice deepened.
It wasn't until this moment that Xia Shang recovered from the woman's surprise and understood his current situation.
This is a woman that Xia Shang cannot refuse. In fact, Xia Shang should have thought of her a long time ago.
But... this woman really amazed Xia Shang so much that he forgot about the environment he was in.
The emperor gave Xia Shang conditions and asked him to accept two people. Xia Shang was also fully mentally prepared and ready to accept anyone.
But Xia Shang did not expect that one of the people the emperor gave him would be such a beautiful girl, and she would also be his wife...
Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
At this moment, the emperor's thoughts were very clear.
Among the two people, one is said to be a guard, but in fact he has to monitor all actions at work.
The other said she was his wife, but actually she wanted to monitor every detail of Xia Shang's life.
The emperor wanted to have everything in Xia and Shang under his control.
This kind of thing is very uncomfortable, but it is also irresistible.
Helpless, Xia Shang chose to remain silent.
The emperor nodded with satisfaction, walked slowly between the two of them, and then said: "You are still not polite? Haven't you always wanted to escape from the palace? Now I have given you a chance. From now on, you will follow your husband. As long as your husband does not
Do something extraordinary and I believe your life will be happy in the future."
After hearing the emperor's words, the girl's lips raised.
That's not a smile, that's contempt.
She glanced at the emperor gently, with a mocking look, showing great disdain for his words.
When she laid her eyes on Xia Shang, the disdain disappeared and turned into a real faint smile.
That smile was like the spring breeze that melted the glacier. It had a refreshing magic power and turned her indifferent face into a faint blooming flower, which was so beautiful.
For a moment, Xia Shang was actually a little moved.
This was definitely a unique time for Xia Shang. He had seen many women, all of whom were unique beauties, but none of them could make Xia Shang's heart flutter the moment they met.
This shows how stunning and impressive his appearance is.
However, Xia Shang's heartbeat was also instantaneous, because the pain in his chest broke all the good things, making him frown slightly, and the previous feeling disappeared in an instant.
Seeing Xia Shang frowning, the girl also frowned slightly, seeming to be a little dissatisfied with Xia Shang's expression.
The emperor also saw Xia Shang's expression, and he was also dissatisfied. He snorted coldly: "Don't be ungrateful. I have already opened up to you. Xiaoxin's beauty is as good as any woman in the world. Marrying you will be your third life."
The blessing of three generations of cultivation. Xiaoxin's status is far more noble than your wife Qin Huairou. Being equal to her is also a compliment to Qin Huairou. You need to know that Li Xiaoxin is my twin sister."
Xia Shang was a little absent-minded and didn't understand. After a while, he suddenly thought about it and his eyes almost dropped to the ground: "What, what, what? Twin twins... twin sisters..."
This is definitely the most ridiculous thing Xia Shang has ever heard, and it actually came from the emperor!
However, the three people in front of them didn't have any inappropriate expressions, and they obviously had no doubts about what they said before.
How can this be!
There must be some mistake!
Xia Shang would never believe this.
Even if the emperor said she was the emperor's sister, it would be understandable. After all, she is the emperor. It is not unusual to recognize a sister, and age is not a distance, because the emperor has enough capital to suddenly come to her.
but……
How can the words "twin sisters" be used indiscriminately?
Twin sister means twin brother and sister, that’s twins!
But how old is the emperor? At least seventy or eighty! Even if taking care of state affairs will make people grow old faster, he must be in his sixties at least.
But how old is the woman in front of me? At most twenty, maybe even less.
These two people are said to be granddaughters and grandfathers, but they are almost the same. How can they say they are twin sisters?
Xia Shang's expression was very wonderful, and the emperor said calmly: "There are many things in this world that you and I don't understand, so you just need to listen to what I say. It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."
Obviously, the emperor is not joking...
Could this woman really be the emperor's sister?
Could it be that underneath this young skin is an old witch in her seventies or eighties?
My dear...
Xia Shang instantly felt uncomfortable all over, and when he looked at the girl again, he felt that her age had become blurry.
He must be in his twenties, maybe in his thirties...
"I'm not a monster, nor an old woman. I have my reasons!" the girl said, obviously reminding Xia Shang not to look at him with that weird look.
This thing was so incredible that Xia Shang needed a lot of time to digest it.
Xia Shang was still a little confused until he sat on Che Jiao who was leaving the palace.
The emperor did not embarrass Xia Shang anymore and put Xia Shang on the sedan chair leaving the palace, but at the same time, he also asked Xia Shang to take the girl named Li Xiaoxin out of the palace with him.
Today's facts are really incomprehensible. Xia Shang once thought that he was dreaming. He looked behind him from time to time in the sedan chair, feeling that Li Xiaoxin's sedan chair behind him would suddenly disappear, and then he would wake up from this dream. (To be continued)
