In the Heart Nurturing Hall, after Huo Li heard the Young Wolf Head's arrogant words, he ignored the presence of the important officials and stood up, "Young Wolf Head, don't go too far with this matter. This king has said that it is up to you to fight against the Sky Dynasty if you wish to reconcile the countries of the region with each other. Even if This King were to charge in alone, he can still massacre the entire region and turn it into a river of blood! "
"Are you trying to scare this crown prince? This crown prince was greatly frightened and wanted to destroy my region country by yourself. Do you think you're some sort of immortal god?" The eyes behind the silver mask narrowed into a line, filled with heartfelt and cold, "Prince Duan, you injured this crown prince for a woman and disregarded the future of both countries. It can be seen that your mind has been completely bewitched by that woman. Ever since the ancient times, many kingdoms have been destroyed by women. The reason why I am doing this is simply to take away your calamity, to let you properly clean up your country, and to treat the people that you have always wanted to treat with kindness. "
Beauty and mountains, This King cannot be missing a single one. Whether she is a beauty or a scourge, This King knows it better than you do." A woman who has been defeated by This King and has the face to guide This King, how is she qualified to plan for the future of This King!? " How could Huo Li not be mad? He had been yearning for Xi Sanmo and suspecting him as well. He finally had a chance to go back home after the confinement was over, and he was about to be messed up by this bastard.
If you want This King's woman, then let's see how hard your head is, enough for This King to chop a few times!
The Young Wolf Lord's mask was filled with a cold light. His expression was unreadable, and only his slightly narrowed eyes could be seen the gathering of cold air: "This prince's skills are inferior to yours, but if you injure this prince, then the Country will not agree. Using a woman to exchange for the wisdom of all the people in the world, you will only earn nothing in this deal. "Your Highness, you should know that no matter how precious your woman is, she can't even compare to a single hair on my body …"
"How dare you!" The humiliation continued. Not to mention the arrogant Huo Li, even a normal man should be angered by this.
His entire body was solemn, the terrifying aura from his body congealed into dark clouds, he gathered all of his power and punched towards the Young Wolf Lord, this arrogant Young Wolf Lord was a well-deserved beating!
"Your Highness, please focus on big matters …" The powerful officials within the palace were terrified. If things continued like this, the two kingdoms would inevitably wage war, fighting to the death and losing their homes. This was a scene that they, the ministers, did not want to see happen.
The Crown Prince didn't think so. He and Huo Li were on the same side. Anyone who dared to insult their sister-in-law would be executed. He cried out in joy in his heart, "Good hit! Good hit!"
However, the emperor, who was sitting in a high position and dressed in a bright yellow Heavenly Son attire, had a calm expression. There was no fear or fear from an important official, nor was there the short-sightedness of a crown prince, much less the explosive anger of Huo Li.
Huo Li's momentum was sharp, every move he made was fatal!
The Young Wolf Head retreated step by step. It could only defend but had no strength to fight back!
If not for Huo Li's leniency, the Young Wolf Lord would have died more than ten times!
In fact, the Young Wolf Lord had never been personally met by the Emperor, nor had they actually fought against each other. However, the fact that he was on such a different level from Huo Li did not match up to the rumors!
Xi Sanmo, ah, Xi Sanmo, you asked to participate in Young Wolf Lord's banquet because you want to sit beside him. You want to share Young Wolf Lord's condemnation? If you were such a normal woman, I wouldn't have entrusted you with the task. Now that the Young Wolf Lord has pointed the finger at you, isn't it time for me to ask you to come out and cheer you on?
This world belongs to you. How can I fight for you for a lifetime and come out to train? This is also a form of training!
Seeing that the Young Wolf Lord was at a disadvantage, the envoy of the Prefecture Country was ready to make a move in the hall with a serious face.
The Emperor no longer hesitated and immediately made a decision. He decisively shouted, "Stop!"
His voice was not loud, but it caused the entire hall to vibrate. It was clear that his inner strength was much greater than Huo Li's, and the other officials did not dare to be impudent. They turned their gazes away, and Huo Li and the Young Wolf Lord also took a step back, separating temporarily from the intense battle.
But when the two of them looked into each other's eyes, neither of them liked the other. Both of them coldly snorted and turned their heads to the side.
The Emperor's sharp eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, his tone solemn. "One of them is my prince, he doesn't recognize etiquette. One was a distinguished guest from afar who could not see the big picture. If we make a move in the great hall, we will think of our dignity as and our safety as? "
"Father, this son knows his wrongs!" Huo Li was the first to kneel on one knee and sincerely admit his mistake. In this feudal era, the imperial power stood above all else.
Instead, he pointed at Huo Li and scolded him, "Your majesty is clear that Prince Duan needs strict discipline, and he acted first two times. In his eyes, there is no Emperor, no State of Domain, and no …"
The heck!
You tricked This King, go to hell!
Huo Li's face darkened. He stretched out his hand and pressed it against the Young Wolf Lord's knee. The Young Wolf Lord was caught off guard and its leg went limp. It kneeled on the ground respectfully with a thud.
"You …" The Young Wolf Lord turned around and glared at Huo Li.
Huo Li shrugged indifferently, "Young Wolf Master's teachings just now were correct. The etiquette cannot be wasted!"
The ministers lowered their heads with complicated expressions on their faces.
The crown prince pursed his lips and snickered. The emperor's eyes revealed a faint smile as well. Only the envoys of a prefecture could stand to the side, blushing and turning white. They were unable to hang on.
The Emperor coughed twice to ease the awkward atmosphere. "In the spring of next year, I will abdicate my position as Emperor. Before I abdicated, I will no longer meddle in important matters. To protect the people of both countries, you need to be fully clothed and eat, so you don't have to go through the suffering of the Peakfire War. "
Since Young Wolf Lord is not satisfied with my proposal, we shall stay and slowly negotiate. "Xi Sumo is the daughter of an important official and has been engaged to be betrothed to the Prince for many years. If it weren't for some mishap, their children would have argued that the world should be reconciled to the right and wrong. Young Wolf Lord's demands had been a disgrace, and he had crossed the line.
"But if we don't give the Young Wolf Head a proper explanation, he will probably cause a huge ruckus. Not only will he turn me into a sinner of the heavens, he will also make Xi Sanmo suffer the wrath of the heavens. Since the Young Wolf Lord believes that this matter arose because of Xi Sanmo, then I will make an exception to give the Young Wolf Lord justice. Tomorrow night, there will be a banquet for Young Wolf Lord in the imperial backyard to discuss the affairs of the country. Xi Sumo will be entering the palace to meet with Young Wolf Lord on orders … "
"Royal father, you absolutely cannot …"
The emperor waved his hand to stop Huo Li from interrupting in surprise. He then sternly said, "As for whether or not we should marry her, Young Wolf Lord will come back to discuss it after meeting her. However, I also wish to remind Young Wolf Lord that even though Xi Sanmo is a girl, his manliness isn't inferior to a man's. "I remember that a few days ago, the prince was not allowed to enter the palace when he was injured, so the crown prince announced for him to enter the palace to inquire about the prince's illness."
"Because it had been a long time, Prince had not seen Xi Sanming for a long time and missed him, so he repeatedly sent people to invite him back. Upon receiving the order, Xi Sanmo was naturally in a hurry to return, but due to his sudden interest, he immediately ordered the envoy to play chess with him and not be allowed to return home. "
"If it were any other girl, they would naturally have to accompany me on my orders. However, if I didn't say anything, I wouldn't have the slightest bit of face to directly reject her." I wanted to see how brave she was, so I ordered my guards to use their sabers to force her. "
Perhaps the Young Wolf Lord did not see that, with the four blades at the front and back of her body coldly blocking her momentum, but she still remained calm and collected, and even kept up a grand discussion with us for a long time. What about lords and subjects, what about subjects and sons, what about fathers and sons, what about husbands and wives, they made me speechless and difficult to deal with.
"But I am more important than the Son of Heaven. How can I be inferior to her? Thus, I ordered someone to move over to the chess board and start playing chess on the streets. When the knife was placed on her neck, she wasn't the least bit afraid. Her chess moves were sharp and fierce, so how could she say that her opponent is the Emperor? You have to give three points of face and leave some face. "
"As for the outcome of the chess game, I don't think the Young Wolf Lord will be able to guess it. However, I am not praising her for her courage and insight in chess. I am only reminding young wolf master to do his homework tonight and not let Xi Sumo fall behind in front of all the important officials in the hall tomorrow. "If you continue to embarrass yourself, I won't be able to protect you!"
"Alright, this is all I have to say. I will pass on my decree to present a banquet for the Young Wolf Lord tomorrow night. The Queen Concubine, Crown Prince, Wen Ren, and even Xi Sanmo will all be present at the banquet. As for Prince Duan, he will continue to be confined to the Eastern Palace and will not be allowed to return to the Prefecture. "
Huo Li gritted his teeth in anger and broke out into a cold sweat for his wife. That woman might be intelligent, but would she be able to handle such matters in the imperial court? She could not marry the Young Wolf Head, and she could not leave the Heavenly Court. She was his woman, and even though he still hated her in his heart, he was still unwilling to let her go.
He couldn't leave the palace, so he could only send Xiao Budian to inform her that she had to prepare and act according to the circumstances.
When Xiao Budian rushed to Xi Sanmo's room, Xi Sanmo was still in Chu Nantian's room. After she finished listening to Xiao Budian's words, the teacup in her hand fell onto the table with a "dang" sound, splashing tea all over her body.
"Miss …"
"Miss Xi …"
Everyone there said she was afraid, but she herself knew that it was all still a play. She looked at Chu Nantian with her clear and clear gaze, and asked with a wronged tone, "Lord Chu is indeed correct. The young wolf master really chose to marry, but why would I be the one to marry him? I already have an engagement, so how can I marry a person who has an engagement? "
Seeing her like this, Chu Nantian could not help but feel sad in his heart. Ignoring the formalities, he held her trembling small hand and comforted her: "A woman who can marry a foreign official must have a noble identity. Young Miss Xi is a daughter of a senior official, her marriage fate is also in accordance with the rules of the court. The marriage contract will only be the marriage contract and will not have any effect. If Young Wolf Lord continues to bite off more than he can chew, this time, Miss Xi might really have a hard time escaping the fate of marriage. "
"How can we …" Her tears welled up in her eyes. How was Miss going to get married? How was she going to go to such a remote place?
"If it's like what Young Master Chu said, then wouldn't I have to leave my hometown? Wouldn't I have to leave my parents, stay away from Shan Shan and the Prince? If I want to see Young Master Chu again in the future, wouldn't that be a dream for the rest of my life?"
Chu Nan Tian was delighted: "Thank you, Miss Xi, for having me in your heart, but I am just a normal businessman, running around all year round. "If Miss Xi wishes to see me, but if you send a letter, I can ride a horse …"
Xi Sumo shook his head again and again and tried to play a trick, "It's not the same, it's not the same. As the Crown Prince's consort, he can't sit so close to Young Master Chu anymore. If they couldn't chat freely like they wanted, then what was the point of meeting again? Young master Chu, the marriage is just a stunt, it's not a foregone conclusion. If I can convince the Young Wolf Lord tomorrow, then I will still be myself. Young Master Chu, can I ask you to help me with something? "
"Between you and me, how can you ask for favors? If I can help, I will definitely go through fire and tread on water without any hesitation!" Chu Nantian was once again confused by her teary eyes. He only saw tears and didn't see what she was planning.
Xi Sanmo nodded heavily as two tears dripped from his eyes, "Your highness must have hated me to the core in the palace these past few days. Otherwise, you would have kicked me out of the palace. "Even though Young Master Chu is a merchant, even though he's from Yin Mountain, can you accompany me to the palace? Give me some morale, let me stand in front of the main hall and have the power to refute. When I'm at a disadvantage, please give me a reminder or two."
"This... I'm afraid this isn't appropriate … "This is a secret between two countries, it might be inappropriate for me to enter like this …" Chu Nantian was a bit hesitant and his tone was firm, but his deep gaze was wavering.
Xi Sanmo pressed on step by step, "Now that you can't care about these, follow me. Your Majesty, please pity me and I will definitely grant you permission to enter the palace. Young master Chu, the only person who can help me now is you. I beg you, please follow me to the palace. This might be the last time we will ever walk side by side. "Young master Chu, I beg of you, please help me, help me …"
Xi Sumo kept begging with tears streaming down his face. Chu Nantian looked at her and pondered for a long time before nodding his head, "Alright! Then I shall accompany you. I hope the court official won't object! "
"It won't, it won't! As long as the emperor agrees, how could they dare to object!" Xi Sanmo was overjoyed. He broke into laughter but no one could see the odds of her winning by hiding behind a deep smile.
