The emperor and empress appeared, and everyone stood up and saluted.
After the two of them sat down, everyone sat down again.
Xiao Ze sat on the dragon chair, and the queen sat next to him.
He looked around, but first he smiled at Elder Xuanhai and spoke.
"Elder Xuanhai, I didn't expect you to come here today?"
Elder Xuanhai has an unruly and free temperament, and has always been impatient for such occasions. He invited him five times, and it was rare for Elder Xuanhai to come even once.
If others were like this, they would definitely be charged with disrespect, but Elder Xuanhai was different.
He is one of the most powerful men in the Tianlan Kingdom. Even Xiao Ze has to show courtesy every time. Naturally, he will not trouble Elder Xuanhai on such a trivial matter.
Xiao Ze was indeed quite surprised to see him coming.
Elder Xuanhai laughed.
"Today is His Majesty's fiftieth birthday banquet, so I naturally want to come here to congratulate you!"
Xiao Ze shook his head and said with a teasing smile:
"Don't try to coax me. If I hadn't invited your precious disciple here, why would you have come to Yong'an Hall today?"
Hearing this, everyone was moved in their hearts and involuntarily looked at the girl behind Elder Xuanhai.
Doesn't this refer to Ye Xiyue?
Aware of the various gazes around her, Ye Xiyue couldn't help but sigh secretly.
She knew this would happen.
Emperor Jiawen Xiao Ze suddenly invited her and Jingchuan over. How could it be possible that he suddenly got up?
When Elder Xuanhai heard this, he raised his thick eyebrows and agreed without hesitation.
"Haha! What your Majesty said is absolutely true! This disciple of mine is indeed smart and smart. It took a lot of effort to get this girl to become my disciple. Of course she must be pampered!"
What he said was straightforward and hearty, and he did not hide his partiality and love for Ye Xiyue at all.
Everyone listened with different expressions.
Elder Xuanhai's love for Ye Xiyue was already known to almost everyone in the imperial capital.
But he said it so loudly, and couldn't help but make people secretly envious and jealous.
Xiao Yushan pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, covering up the waves in her eyes.
She is not a student of Nanshan College.
This is not because she is not qualified enough. In fact, her talent is only slightly inferior to Xiao Mingyin.
If you get it from Nanshan College, you will definitely be top-notch.
It's just that - she has a high spirit, and even if she is practicing, she doesn't want to be like ordinary people.
She had wanted to become the disciple of Elder Xuanhai before, but she failed in the end.
——Elder Xuanhai declined.
Not many people know about this matter, and Elder Xuanhai may have forgotten it long ago. After all, Xiao Yushan is definitely not the only person he has rejected over the years.
There is even a prince among them.
As the fourth princess, Xiao Yushan could not be compared with the prince no matter how favored she was.
Elder Xuanhai rejected her for no other reason than because he simply disliked her.
But because of this, Xiao Yushan still has a knot in her heart every time she thinks about it.
Even if she was in the palace later and her father specially invited her master to teach her, she would still mind this matter.
The person who had refused to accept her as a disciple back then was now full of praise for another person...
Such a gap made Xiao Yushan feel uncomfortable.
...
Xiao Ze was already somewhat curious about Ye Xiyue, but when he heard what Elder Xuanhai said, he was even more surprised.
He turned his eyes slightly and landed on the girl behind Elder Xuanhai.
