"I can't decide on this matter, so I have to listen to Ju-er's words. After all, he told me a few years ago that he wanted to make the decision himself for the marriage." The Kaiser said.
This subject's daughter, this subject's daughter is willing to listen to decedent's thoughts. Nalan Xueer originally thought that today's matter would definitely be fine, but now that there was a change, she was not so sure.
After all, for all these years, she had only seen Ling Jue a limited number of times. Furthermore, Ling Jue had always been indifferent to her, as if their true conversation had stopped at the time when he was young.
Thinking about it this way, Nalan Xueer's gaze darkened, her heart feeling a little more nervous.
Everyone looked at Ling Jue, waiting for his response.
However, Ling Jue took a grape from the Table, threw it into the air, and caught it with his mouth. He looked unrestrained and did not say anything for a long time, which made Nalan Xueer, who was kneeling, feel awkward.
After going straight for a long while, he finally got up slowly and walked to the center of the hall. He cupped his fists and bowed while his magnetic voice sounded in the hall, "childrens, you don't like Miss Nalan and are even more unwilling to delay the major event of Miss Nalan's life."
Everyone inhaled a breath of cold air, they knew that Crown Prince was usually unrestrained and unrestrained, with a free and easy character. Although he never mentioned anything about it to the young miss of a distinguished official, looking at this, everyone felt like he was someone who would indulge himself with emotions.
However, no one had thought that he would reject such a beautiful woman like her.
Xia Weilan was originally eating in silence, but at this moment, when Ling Jue said that he would reject her, the hand in his mouth suddenly stopped, and then continued, although his eyes had an additional warmth.
Nalan Xueer was originally kneeling, but she forced herself not to cry, instead, the body just sat on the ground.
Feeling the scorching gaze from her surroundings, she felt ashamed. Right now, she wanted nothing more than to bury herself into the ground.
The Prime Minister could not bear to see his daughter like this, and immediately walked over to help Nalan Xueer up with a pained heart.
"If that's the case, I have no other choice. I'll give you a jade ruyi. It can be considered as my reward for you." Kaiser could only helplessly say.
Nalan Xueer's heart was as though it had been frozen. She still wanted to say something, but was stopped by the Prime Minister, who forced her to lower her head and grit her teeth: "This subject's daughter thanks the emperor."
The Halloween then continued, and all sorts of flattery sounded, all of them praising Kaiser's birthday, while he continuously gave gifts.
"Phew ~" Xia Yulan breathed a sigh of relief, as she looked at the charming man with happiness in her eyes. Her heart was pounding non-stop, and it was fortunate that he had rejected her offer. If he agreed, she didn't know how she would feel.
After a while, the situation finally calmed down.
Only when Nalan Xueer was staring intently at Ling Jue did she realize, that Ling Jue was staring at the girl beside him, while the girl was eating her food quietly with her head down, she couldn't see her face clearly.
But the more she couldn't see, the more she wanted to look, the more curious she became, furthermore, Ling Jue's gaze did not move away from the woman's body even for a single moment.
"Emperor, when chenqie saw this, she wasn't the only one. What do you think?" Queen said.
Kaiser did not reject her, and nodded, indicating her to continue.
"Ladies, what other talents do you have that can be called This Palace to take a look?" The Queen continued.
All the girls wanted to rush forward, but no one dared to.
Xia Yuying was secretly happy, just now, Nalan Xueer had danced so beautifully and was rejected. If she were to act now, she would definitely receive the Queen's favor.
Thinking of this, she raised her leg and was about to leave, but she stopped herself the moment she came out. Her gaze turned to the girl beside her who only lowered her head to eat, but didn't raise her head.
"Empress Dowager, I heard that my daughter has been in the Capital City and that the Eldest Miss is flourishing." Xia Yuying took a few steps back, and said while holding onto her throat.
When the Queen heard the two words "Hou Mansion", she frowned slightly. Hou Mansion did not have any real power, and marrying her would not benefit Ling Yuan, so why did he have to marry a decoration to bring home.
But since there was already a voice, she couldn't really reject it. She could only pretend to be interested and ask: "Oh? Come and let This Palace take a look. "
Hou Mansion? Something flashed across Xia Weilan's heart, and she continued to eat silently. Her face did not show any signs of change, but as she ate, she felt that something was off. When she looked up, the eyes of almost everyone in the hall were focused on her.
Ling Jue reminded them softly from the side: "Queen wants you to go." As he spoke, his face revealed a playful smile.
Before he had time to bicker with Ling Jue, Xia Weilan hurriedly put down his chopsticks, walked to the center of the great hall, and bowed as she spoke in a melodious voice, "Daughter, Xia Weilan greets Emperor, Empress of the Queen, may Emperor and Queen of the Queen, Jin An, please."
Seeing her stand up, Nalan Xueer was able to take a good look at her, she was wearing a plain dress, her face did not have the slightest trace of panic, her small face did not have any makeup on, only a plain hairpin on her head, the phoenix eye was clear, but there was a tinge of cold arrogance on her face, truly, she was extremely beautiful.
Thinking about it this way, Nalan Xueer's hands tightened under her sleeves, the expression on his face also changed again and again. This kind of woman, did he really like her?
In the eyes of the Queen, such an appearance was quite stunning, but it was as beautiful as beauty, only that her status was inferior to the young miss of the Prime Minister's Manor. In her heart, she had always thought of Nalan Xueer, but that Nalan Xueer did not know how to appreciate her kindness.
"Aiyo, hurry up and get up to speak. I wonder what you're capable of?" Queen Smiling said with a gentle and virtuous look on her face, as if she was like an ordinary family mother.
From the moment Xia Weilan left, Ling Jue and Princess Ning's eyes had been following him closely.
Grand Princess Ping Ning looked at Xia Weilan who was not afraid at all. At the moment, she liked Xia Weilan even more, but she could not find the chance to talk, and even more, he could not let Xia Weilan shine. Otherwise, even if the Queen did not like Xia Weilan's family background, she would still let her marry the Great Prince.
