Chapter 81 This time, I will cancel the engagement!
Chu Hanxiao flashed to the water tank placed in the center of the yard and scooped up some cold water to wash his face.
After forcing himself to calm down, his confused mind gradually became clear.
Looking at the door that was still shaking, I was puzzled.
This girl...
How could this happen?
In the kiss just now, it was clearly her who was guiding him!
He retreated, she advanced;
When he entered, she hid...
hiss!
Could it be that he learned it from Chu Yongji?
When I think of the scene where she used to chase Chu Yongji...
Chu Hanxiao was filled with hatred and raised his palm to smash the water tank to pieces.
The water in the jar poured down, and he finally came to his senses.
Do not!
impossible.
Chu Yongji didn’t like her before…
Even if she wanted to learn, she had no chance.
not to mention……
He believed her and was not that kind of person.
She only seduced him!
Correct……
That must be the case!
It can only be like this...
Return to Xie Qinghuan's bedroom.
I saw the little girl, who had been making noise all day, sleeping quietly.
He softened again.
He walked over slowly and covered her with the quilt.
After staying with her in the general's mansion for a few days, General Luo returned triumphantly to Beijing with Luo Changfeng.
Chu Zhenye, on behalf of the royal family, welcomed them at the city gate.
Chu Yongji didn't come, Xie Tingzhou told Xie Qinghuan:
"He has been confined by the Emperor."
Xie Qinghuan raised his chin proudly and snorted.
"Deserve it!"
The smug little expression made Chu Hanxiao couldn't help laughing.
Seeing the dusty Luo Jinshan and Luo Changfeng dismounting from their horses and greeting Chu Zhenye.
Xie Qinghuan ran over.
"Uncle! Big brother! You have worked hard on the journey!"
Chu Zhenye was originally holding Luo Jinshan's elbow, helping him up and greeting him.
When he heard Xie Qinghuan's voice, he turned around without finishing his words.
"Qing Huan, why haven't you been to class these days?"
"I... hehe, I heard that my uncle had returned triumphantly, so I was busy preparing gifts!"
Seeing how familiar the two were with each other, Luo Jinshan narrowed his eyes and smiled.
He nodded meaningfully and looked back at Luo Changfeng.
He raised his eyebrows gossipingly and whispered.
"The Night King is better than that!"
Luo Changfeng, however, was not very optimistic and glanced at the Night King with a cold look.
"I am old and in poor health."
"Tsk, what do you know! An older man will be more caring, and his body...his body is good, isn't it?"
He smiled and looked back and forth at the two of them, then nodded with satisfaction.
“I think this one is good!”
He started to kowtow to himself.
After Xie Qinghuan finished talking to Chu Zhenye, Xie Tingzhou and Luo Shuangxi also arrived.
Bow to the two of them.
"Your Majesty, Uncle (Father)."
Chu Zhenye then remembered that he came here to pick up Luo Jinshan.
Turn back quickly.
"General Luo, my father has specially prepared a palace banquet to reward the soldiers. Please come in."
"No, no, Your Majesty, please go first."
Luo Jinshan and Chu Zhenye gave way to each other for a moment.
They entered the city gate side by side.
When passing by Xie Qinghuan, Luo Jinshan rubbed her hair lovingly.
He then stretched out his arm and put his arm around Xie Tingzhou's shoulders.
If you are not tall enough, stand on tiptoe.
Xie Tingzhou even bent down slightly to accommodate him.
Xie Qinghuan was so amused that he couldn't help but laugh.
Luo Shuangxi came over and greeted Luo Changfeng.
"I'm back, brother."
"Ah."
Luo Changfeng ignored Luo Shuangxi and his eyes fell on Xie Qinghuan who was grinning.
"I heard...my younger sister wants to cancel the engagement?"
Xie Qinghuan stopped laughing.
He nodded vigorously.
He clenched his fists and looked determined.
He looked like he was destined to win.
"That rotten cucumber has been stuck on Xie Qingwan's bed! This time, I will cancel the engagement!"
"it is good."
Luo Changfeng tried to hold back, but couldn't.
He changed his icy expression and curled the corners of his lips.
I responded casually with "OK".
Xie Qinghuan didn't take it seriously at first, but who would have thought...
He actually brought it up in public at the palace banquet!
The emperor rewarded the Luo family father and son and asked:
"Beiling won a great victory, and Luo Changfeng made many contributions.
He is truly a promising young man and can be regarded as a pillar of the country!
Is there any reward you want?"
Without waiting for Luo Jinshan to politely refuse, Luo Changfeng stood up.
Long legs, striding forward.
He lifted his robe and knelt on his knees.
"Your Majesty, I do have a favor to ask of you—
My sister Qing Huan was once favored by the emperor and married to him. But...”
He paused and did not reveal the royal scandal.
Just to say:
"Prince Yong and my younger sister are at odds with each other, and I am afraid that I will fail the grace of the Emperor... I hope Your Majesty will cancel the engagement!"
Luo Changfeng kowtowed.
The whole audience fell silent, and looked at Xie Qinghuan suspiciously.
Xie Qinghuan didn't expect that his elder brother would be so brave!
He actually used his military achievements in public to exchange for the emperor to cancel the engagement.
This is a bit like coercion...
When the emperor heard this, his face darkened.
His fingertips tapped lightly on the table.
After a while, he finally spoke.
"Qing Huan."
The lingering sound of oppression echoed in the hall.
Xie Qinghuan hurriedly stood up and knelt behind Luo Changfeng.
He held his breath, his voice trembling a little.
"Uncle Emperor, I am here..."
Seeing her panic, the emperor hesitated.
When he spoke again, his tone was a little softer.
"Qing Huan, what you mean is..."
Xie Qinghuan stole a glance at Luo Changfeng.
I borrowed some courage from my older brother who had a murderous aura.
Nod and speak.
"Uncle Emperor, please understand. Prince Yong really has no interest in me. I also..."
She hesitated for a moment, but still spoke while holding the handkerchief.
"I don't want to wait for him anymore."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a burst of boos.
Whispering to each other:
"I really want to cancel the engagement!"
"Cancel the engagement? Is this cancelling the engagement? This means that the Luo family does not support Prince Yong!"
"What about the Xie family?"
"Tsk, this must be what the Xie family meant! Prince Yong will have no chance of becoming the emperor..."
"Let's not talk about anything else... The Luo family really loves this daughter -
General Luo has made two military achievements this year. One was to get Miss Xie admitted to the Imperial College, and the other was to help her break off her engagement!
I didn’t ask for anything!”
"Yeah, tut tut tut..."
Xie Tingzhou listened to everyone's discussion.
Seeing that the emperor lowered his eyes and remained silent, he also stood up and knelt forward.
"Your Majesty, during this period of time, my sister has worked hard. As her brother, I have seen it with my own eyes and it hurts my heart!
I beg Your Majesty to revoke your order and allow Prince Yong to choose the person he likes as he wishes! And also let my sister... marry freely."
The words had just fallen, but the emperor had not yet expressed his opinion.
Luo Shuangxi also knelt down.
"Your Majesty! Prince Yong has repeatedly shown his dislike for my younger sister in front of others. If this is the case, even if we get married, it may not be a happy one!
It would be better to cancel the engagement and live in peace..."
The emperor saw them kneeling down one after another.
I just felt my head buzzing.
Helplessly, he held his forehead and sighed.
here we go again……
Every time this little girl has something wrong, a bunch of cousins and brothers come rushing to ask for help...
One after another, one after another...
The noise is giving me a headache.
Don’t even think about it.
The matter has even been brought to the attention of the Queen Mother!
Why would I insist on not breaking off the engagement?
I admit that I originally arranged a marriage for them because I valued the abilities of the Xie and Luo families.
They were worried that without their assistance, the country would be unstable.
But the more important thing is that Qinghuan is attracted by that useless thing!
For me, isn't it all the same no matter which prince I choose for the marriage?
Yes!
That brat Yongji is so disappointing. He played a good hand of cards badly!
But isn’t there still a town business?
If you dislike Zhenye’s poor health, bring Yingji back after some time!
It really doesn't work...
I'm in good health, I'm going to give birth now!
