Murong Yan's expression, like Situ Xun's, was extremely unsightly.
She couldn't help but cast a cold glance at the delicate figure standing in the middle of the right side of the table.
If not for the Sixth Prince, how could Ying Chang Zai have the qualifications to attend this banquet?
Hmph, it really is true. A dog that can bite doesn't bark?
Just watch, she will definitely make them climb up and fall down no matter how hard they fall!
Just then, the eunuch by Situ Ming's side entered the hall with a happy expression. Everyone realized that this eunuch had actually been gone the entire time.
"In reply to His Majesty, His Highness said that he was afraid he'd walk too fast so that things wouldn't get damaged, so he carefully slowed down his pace. At this point, he'd already reached the Hall of Peace. He sent a servant to inform His Majesty, begging for His Majesty's forgiveness!"
Although Laide had come to plead on behalf of the Sixth Prince, the way he was joking and the joy in the corners of his eyes made him feel none of the fear.
"This Sixth Brother!" You can go back and tell him that there's no need to rush, we'll all wait for him! "
Situ Ming did not seem to be unhappy at all. Leaning on the dragon throne, he waved his hand, signalling Laide to go greet him.
After getting the order, Laide left the banquet hall with a face full of joy. Other than Situ Ming, everyone else looked confused as they tried to guess what the Sixth Prince had brought with him that was so mysterious.
Even Gu Shiyi became curious.
"Last night, there was a sudden clap of thunder in Wu City's West Mountain. A strange stone was blown out. The previous day, the world was peaceful and prosperous."
Seeing Gu Shiyi's curious little eyes, Situ Jing smiled, placed his head by her ear and started to explain.
Actually, he had already known about this matter from the start, and it was also because of this that he started to truly pay attention to the Sixth Prince. Combined with the changes the Sixth Prince had undergone in these past few months, Situ Jing was even more unable to see through him.
All these were all lies to Situ Ming and that ignorant commoner. A discerning person like him could tell at a glance that this was a lie.
However, regardless of whether it was fake or not, all the emperors of each generation were happy to see such an auspicious event happen. Therefore, the Sixth Prince choosing to act at this time was indeed a wise decision.
Although in Situ Jing's eyes, it was full of flaws, but, if something like this happened, it would just add onto the bet for Crown Prince Situ Xun, and he would be happy to see that too.
After Gu Shiyi heard what Situ Jing said, she finally understood. It was no wonder that Situ Ming was in such a good mood today, waiting patiently and generously for others to arrive.
It seemed that this Sixth Prince was indeed someone who would accomplish great things. This also made Gu Shiyi more and more curious about this Sixth Prince in her heart.
When Lv Zhu was talking about the Sixth Prince just now, she could smell the pink scent around him even from afar. It seemed like this Sixth Prince must also be a very charming person.
Situ Xun could not help but raise her head and look at Murong Yan, indicating whether or not she knew what the Sixth Prince prepared, and what he got instead was Murong Yan shaking his head.
This also caused Situ Xun to be more and more cautious. Even the empress, as her mother, did not know, that royal father had really kept it a secret much more tightly.
Immediately after, a wave of noisy noise came closer and closer from outside the hall. Laide also entered the hall first, informing Situ Ming that the Sixth Prince was about to enter.
Everyone stretched out their necks and opened their eyes wide, tightly staring at the outside of the palace hall. They eagerly waited, wanting to see what would happen.
First was the red robe, and then was a tall and sturdy figure dressed in red. Then was a face even more enchanting and beautiful than a woman's.
Gu Shiyi's breathing, after seeing the Sixth Prince's true face, could not help but stagnate for a moment as she widened her eyes. She did not even blink for a long time, his face filled with disbelief.
Situ Yu, it's actually Situ Yu!
No, it's not him. It's impossible for Situ Yu to be so young.
Situ Jing noticed her abnormality the instant Gu Shiyi's breathing stopped, so he quietly held onto Gu Shiyi's hand under the table. His touch was ice-cold, but there was still sweat on her palm.
Situ Jing could not help but glance at Gu Shiyi, and saw that her face had also become pale white, and her pupils had enlarged by quite a bit, and all of these abnormalities started from the moment the Sixth Prince Situ Yu's figure appeared in front of everyone.
Gu Shiyi, could it be that she knew Situ Yu?
Situ Jing could not help but become suspicious, and looking at the two of them, he began to size them up!
He knew that Gu Shiyi was not the Gu Shiyi from before. Even after he had probed a few times, he still knew that Gu Shiyi was not someone from the Great Xia Kingdom.
Thinking about how Situ Yu had changed greatly in the past few months, Situ Jing couldn't help but start to suspect Situ Yu as well.
Situ Jing thought that since he had already become suspicious, he must first find an opportunity to test Gu Shiyi!
Since Gu Shiyi did not know a lot of things about this world, then what about Situ Yu, was he the same as well?
After Situ Jing tightly gripped Gu Shiyi's hand, Gu Shiyi's heart also recovered. After giving Situ Jing an apologetic smile, his face once again became as normal.
It didn't matter if this person had teleported here from another world like her, she couldn't make a conclusion. Maybe all of this was just a coincidence, thought Gu Shiyi as she calmed down and comforted herself in her heart.
After that, it was Situ Yu and Situ Ming's round of pleasantries and praises, causing Gu Shiyi's heart to once again be at ease by more than half.
The Situ Yu she knew definitely did not say such disgusting words that went against one's heart. Therefore, this Situ Yu definitely was not the Situ Yu from before.
"Old Sixth, since you've contributed so much this time, feel free to tell me what kind of reward you want!"
Situ Ming's mood became better, and he was no longer stingy with his rewards, and this son of his, was indeed someone who he liked a lot. Sometimes, he would even think, if the crown prince was half capable, what would he have to worry about?
"Reporting to Imperial Father, this son of mine has merely been a porter. How could I dare to ask for a reward!"
Situ Yu's face was filled with fear, which also made him nod his head in satisfaction.
"Since you don't dare to take it, then just give it to your mother. What kind of outstanding son did she give birth to for me? This can be considered a great achievement!"
With that said, Situ Ming shot a glance at Laide who was beside him, who instantly took out a bright yellow imperial edict from his sleeves.
