Chapter 301 This Is My Daughter
The emperor found that no one in charge came out to greet him when he stepped into the gate of the princess's mansion. He was a little uncomfortable when he saw the guards and servants kneeling inside and outside the gate.
Wherever the emperor went, he was surrounded by people and prostrated himself. When had he ever been so neglected?
But today was a special situation.
His Majesty did not take it to heart. He only asked the guard leader Lu Jun to lead the way and walked all the way to the main hall of the East Upper Pavilion. However, as soon as he passed through the open hall, he saw Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao who had been waiting for him after hearing his voice.
The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Sir Xie, this is..."
"Xuanyuan Yao."
Three words, like thunder in the ears.
"It turns out to be General Xuanyuan." The emperor's face instantly showed surprise, "I have heard of your name for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity to meet you. Today I finally have the honor to meet the general. It is really a great honor for my humble home."
Is it so exaggerated?
If he was so excited to see him, how would he react when he saw his master and His Majesty later?
Xuanyuan Yao muttered to himself, but humbly clasped his fists and saluted: "Greetings, His Majesty the Emperor of Xiqi."
"No, no." The emperor hurriedly declined, "The general is really majestic and elegant, with the demeanor of a general. I have admired him for many years. Today, I finally got what I wanted and I am very relieved to see him."
Xuanyuan Yao turned his head and glanced at Xie Jin, his eyes clearly asking, is he really so happy to see me?
Xie Jin smiled lightly: "The Regent and the Queen are here too, Your Majesty, why don't you go sit in the hall first?"
The emperor quickly extended his hand: "General Xuanyuan, please, Lord Xie, please."
"Your Majesty, please first."
After a few polite exchanges, they soon went to the main hall together.
Xuanyuan Yao's eyes fell on the face of His Majesty the Emperor, and he thought to himself that the Emperor of Xiqi seemed to be a good person. First, he was not arrogant and ignorant of the times, and second, he did not have pedantic and paranoid ideas. He could directly give up several useless sons and insisted on making his daughter the heir despite all objections. It must be said that this courage was extremely rare.
It's just that Xiqi has suffered a lot in recent years. The biggest problem of the emperor is bad luck. He ascended the throne early when he was young, and the power fell into someone else's hands. Later, he seized power in a disorderly manner in the past few years, which depleted the treasury and dragged down the national strength and military strength. Even if the emperor wanted to govern the country well, he couldn't cook without rice.
I'm afraid that his inability to do so accounted for a large part.
Approaching the East Upper Pavilion, the emperor thought that the distinguished guests from Dongling would certainly not come out to greet him. The guards, maids, and maids were still welcoming the emperor outside the hall.
However, as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, the emperor was greeted by a dignified and indifferent face. He had the honor of seeing it once many years ago. Now, after many years, this face seems to have not changed much. It is still awe-inspiring and awe-inspiring.
The emperor was really stunned and stopped in his tracks.
Next to Rong Yu was the abdicated empress. After many years, she was still beautiful and gentle, as gentle as a fairy from a painting.
Probably no one would have expected that they would meet each other here after several years.
"Your Majesty, Regent." The emperor came back to his senses, and a more humble and enthusiastic smile appeared on his face, "I am really happy today, and I am lucky to meet you two..."
"Your Majesty is too polite." Nan Xi smiled, "We are also very happy."
The emperor thought she was being polite and didn't take it seriously.
Rong Yu's voice was light, but he could hear a rare gentleness: "I am really happy."
The emperor was surprised.
Really happy?
The Queen was gentle, and saying she was happy could be considered polite, but Rong Yu was a person who never knew what politeness was. He actually followed suit and said "very happy". Was it because of Qing Huang?
The Emperor was puzzled.
These two were the most powerful rulers in the history of Dongling. When they were in power, no one dared to provoke them. They created a prosperous and glorious era in just a few years. However, they abdicated at a young age and went to enjoy the mountains and rivers. They also raised two particularly outstanding sons.
The most important point is that Rong Yu never disdained to be polite to others, so the Emperor felt flattered at this time.
However, he soon stopped laughing.
"Introduce her to His Majesty." Rong Yu reached out and touched Qing Huang's head, and said calmly, "This is my daughter."
The Emperor's expression paused, and his eyes followed his movements and turned to look at Qing Huang, who looked calm.
His daughter?
Please tell me clearly, whose daughter is this?
No wonder she was so polite, it turned out that she was trying to snatch his daughter.
"That," the emperor calmed down and found his voice, "The regent doesn't know, Qinghuang is my daughter..."
Even if he wants to recognize his daughter, he must first get the consent of him and Qinghuang, how can he announce the result right away?
"Your Majesty, are you against Qinghuang being my daughter?"
The emperor shook his head subconsciously: "That's not the case, it's just..."
"Then it's settled." Rong Yu announced the result calmly, "Qinghuang is my daughter from now on."
The emperor: "..." Sure enough, they came to snatch his daughter from him.
Xie Jin, Xuanyuan Yao, Rong Zhan, Chu Qinghuang... who stood quietly by the side, all remained silent, and for a moment they only felt that his master (father) was a bit bullying the weak.
...
The poor emperor: Oh, someone snatched my sweet little cotton jacket, what should I do?
Waiting online, very urgent.
