Chapter 302 The Reasonable Emperor
Nan Xi smiled and said, "Let's go sit down in the hall and talk."
The emperor breathed a sigh of relief and nodded quickly, so the group quickly entered the hall.
Even though he had abdicated for so many years, Rong Yu still put Nan Xi first in everything. The Emperor of Xiqi naturally did not dare to be arrogant in front of these two distinguished guests, and humbly gave up the seat of honor.
But this time, Nan Xi took the initiative to sit in the second seat, giving the two main seats to Rong Yu and the emperor, "I will sit with Qing Huang."
The emperor looked at the two seats of the upper seat, and then looked at Nan Xi and Qing Huang who had already sat down on the left. The corners of his mouth moved, but he said nothing. After Rong Yu sat down, he sat down without saying a word.
His eyes subconsciously turned around Qing Huang's face. He was really puzzled in his heart. Qing Huang had never been close to her biological mother, Concubine Duan, so why was she so... so easy to get close to the abdicated empress of Dongling?
And she looked very well-behaved and obedient.
The emperor began to feel sour in his heart, always feeling that his precious daughter was really taken away.
The mood is inevitably a bit complicated.
On the one hand, he is happy that his daughter is liked by Rong Yu and Nan Xi. After all, with the protection of these two heavyweight masters, Dong Ling, Qing Huang can not only sit on the throne more firmly, but also Xi Qi can be protected by the allies. In the future, there will be no worries about foreign enemies, and the development of the family and the army will naturally be smoother.
On the other hand, it is naturally jealousy from his father.
His Majesty sighed. Reason is one thing, and emotion is another...
"Qing Huang is really a heroine. She is as brave as a man. She is only fifteen years old and has the courage that is not inferior to men. It's really amazing." Nan Xi said gently, "The emperor has such an amazing daughter, which makes people envy."
The emperor came back to his senses, and a smile appeared on his face instantly. He nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I am also proud of it. Qing Huang is my intimate little cotton-padded jacket. I am really happy to have such a daughter. I am really happy."
Rong Zhan coughed lightly, picked up the teacup and drank tea silently.
Xie Jin and Xuanyuan Yao didn't say anything either. When they spoke, it was inevitable that they would have the meaning of bullying others with their numbers. Although even if they didn't speak, the emperor looked quite...
"We came to Xiqi this time to recognize a daughter. We will not interfere in the government of Xiqi, nor will we influence Qinghuang in any way." Nan Xi has always been considerate, especially since the other party is nice to her daughter, so her attitude is naturally good. "Qinghuang will still be the emperor's daughter in the future. Rongyu and I will not stay here for too long. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
The emperor felt a little guilty when he heard this.
Okay, he judged the gentleman's belly with his own mean heart. Others just recognized a daughter out of empathy. Why did he think that they came to snatch his daughter from him?
Qinghuang's surname is Chu, and she will always be the eldest princess of the royal family of Xiqi. It is impossible for Rongyu and Nan Xi to change this fact just because they are recognized as a daughter. Except for having two more powerful elders, everything else is no different.
The emperor smiled: "It is Qinghuang's honor to be favored by you two, and I am happy for her."
"We are blessed." Nan Xi smiled, "Qinghuang is already an independent girl, we are just shamelessly asking for a status. As long as no one in Xiqi bullies her, Rongyu and I will not interfere in anything in Xiqi, please rest assured."
Of course, if someone insists on making things difficult for her, then the hundreds of thousands of cavalry in Dongling will not be vegetarians.
The emperor nodded: "It's okay to interfere occasionally. You two are wise monarchs. It will be of great help to Qinghuang to govern the world in the future."
He is a sensible person.
How could such a sensible emperor give birth to several useless sons?
Xuanyuan Yao was very puzzled, and then thought with peace of mind, maybe this is what God meant, otherwise how could Her Royal Highness the Princess have such a natural opportunity to become the first empress of Xiqi?
After a few greetings, the emperor suggested: "You two are new here, and Qinghuang has not prepared much. Why don't you follow me into the palace? I will have someone prepare a grand palace banquet to welcome you?"
Nan Xi looked at Qinghuang and turned around and said: "Rong Yu, go. I will stay here to accompany my daughter."
She said this so naturally, without any unfamiliarity of just recognizing a daughter. The emperor couldn't help but have an illusion that they should be a mother and daughter.
Thinking like this, his mood was a little complicated.
This time he was not jealous or anything, but felt that people were different after all. Concubine Duan was Qinghuang's biological mother, but her attitude towards her daughter was not even as good as that of the queen. At least the queen was willing to pretend on the surface.
And the abdicated former queen of Dongling really had the attitude that a mother should have. Even if Qinghuang was not her biological daughter, her feelings for Qinghuang were just transference, but the more so, the more it proved how strong her feelings for her biological daughter were, so strong that she was willing to place these feelings on a woman who had no blood relationship with her...
The emperor sighed lightly, it was good this way.
Qing Huang didn't receive much warmth and love since she was a child. Now that she has a mother who truly loves her, it can be considered as a compensation.
