Jun Lingyun looked at her bright spring face and felt that happiness could not be more than this. Watching her make trouble, watching her laugh, watching her act willfully. The throne, military achievements, the fear and admiration of the world, what could compare with his Xi'er?
From now on, no one can take away her smile or ruin his happiness.
"Zifeng, it seems that Jiuxiao Linglongqin has no chance with you. All the women who came to the banquet today are of the same quality. Do you have a crush on it? I will make the decision for you!"
The emperor did not forget his nephew.
"It's Zifeng who overestimates his abilities. Thank you very much, uncle. Today I know that there is heaven outside the world and there are people outside the world. Zifeng still needs to temper himself."
This is rejection. All the ladies went from raising their hopes to being disappointed in just one sentence.
The emperor did not force him. The banquet was finally held, and exquisite delicacies were served one after another. Chu Yunxi's already hungry stomach growled.
She was a miserable starving ghost in her previous life, and when she came back again, she was always tense. Alas, it was really difficult for her.
Swallowing unconsciously, Chu Xueer looked at her as if she had seen a ghost. Even if she had to go on a diet before the palace banquet, it wouldn't be like this. She really seemed like she had never seen the world.
She had forgotten that just now it was someone who had never seen the world who compared her to nothing.
Chu Yunxi no longer cared about what she thought. After the emperor moved her chopsticks, she couldn't wait to pick up a piece of meat and put it into her mouth. Hmm~, it was really delicious. Only then did she feel that she was truly alive.
"Eat slowly, don't choke."
Mrs. Chu thought about the way her daughter always behaved. Could it be that she had been wronged in the past few days in the East Palace? It was all the general's fault. The prince was aboveboard and a young hero. He would never have treated Xi'er harshly. He even didn't even eat.
It doesn’t make people taste good either.
Mrs. Chu felt very distressed, but she saw Chu Yunxi's cheeks bulging, and he raised his round eyes to look at her, looking very naive. Her daughter usually held it, so she looked much cuter like this, so she couldn't help but help her brush her hair lovingly.
Seeing their loving mother and filial son, Chu Xueer felt even more uncomfortable. Although she called this woman mother, she was not her biological mother.
Her mother wanted to send her to the prince's bed. Although this was what she wanted, she didn't want maternal love.
When she was a child, whenever she wanted to get close to Mrs. Chu, her mother would warn her, remember your identity. If you really treat them as relatives, you will never get over. Then she forced her to practice calligraphy and piano. Yes, she had
How come you can't compare to Chu Yunxi if you work hard?
Chu Xueer was a loser, and Xiao Feifei was the only one who was the same as her. Not only did she lose her appetite, but she also had a faint pain in her stomach, all of which she blamed on Chu Yunxi.
A palace banquet finally ended, and just when the emperor announced the banquet was over, Chu Xueer suddenly stepped forward and knelt down in the middle of the banquet:
"Your Majesty~, Xueer is brave enough to ask your Majesty to make the decision for my sister."
Everyone sat back down before raising their butts. This was a big show.
"Xue'er, don't be rude to His Majesty before you come back!"
General Chu's face was ashen, and none of his two daughters had calmed down. They were trying to piss him off to death!
"Father, my sister was arrested by His Highness the Crown Prince and taken to the East Palace. You can be ruthless and ignore your sister, but Xue'er can't. Xue'er grew up with her sister and must not watch her sister suffer."
Chu Xueer started crying as she said that. I really felt pity for her.
"You rebellious girl!"
General Chu was so angry that he was about to take Chu Xueer back. However, the emperor raised his hand to stop him. Paper can't hide the anger. If this matter is suppressed today, I don't know what will happen in the future.
It's better to deal with them together.
If Chu Yunxi really doesn't know how to praise, even if he abandons General Chu, he still wants to replace the prince with a princess. He doesn't believe that he can't find another Chu Zhengnan in this world.
"Tell me, what's going on? If you dare to speak nonsense, you are deceiving the emperor and neglecting your superiors."
The emperor warned in a deep voice, and Chu Xueer's heart trembled. She naturally knew the consequences of bullying the emperor, but she would never have such a good opportunity to expose Chu Yunxi in public and slander the prince.
"Back to the emperor, everything my daughter said is true. Since the day before yesterday, my sister Chu Yunxi has been under house arrest in the East Palace by the prince. The prince forced my sister, but she refused. Finally, finally..."
"What happened in the end?"
Chu Xueer had a good handle on her emotions and waited for the emperor to ask questions.
"In the end, my sister hanged herself from the beam!"
"What?"
Everyone exclaimed, everyone knows that the prince is moody, cruel and bloodthirsty, but if this is true, the prince's character is worrisome. How can he become a great treasure? How can Chu Yunxi become the prince's concubine if he is unwilling to do so?
The pot exploded.
"Xue'er didn't dare to lie. Fortunately, she was discovered in time and saved her sister's life. My sister just devoured it, as if she hadn't eaten in the past few days."
There was another sound of inhalation. This prince had gone too far. He refused to feed such a delicate young lady.
"Your Majesty, if my sister is trapped in the East Palace again, I don't know how many days she can survive. Please save my sister!"
Chu Xueer cried and threw herself to the ground. The affection was so deep that even Chu Yunxi was almost moved. If it were her previous life, she would definitely be grateful for her "protection". Unfortunately, she is already dead in her previous life.
.
"Chu Yunxi, is this possible?"
The emperor's anger was undisguised. The prince had really wasted so many years of personal teaching. He couldn't even handle a woman, so he had to step in and clean up the mess for him.
Chu Yunxi loosened her grip on the hem of her skirt and stepped forward to kneel down again:
"Back to the emperor, I don't know why my sister said this."
This, this, everyone is insisting on their own opinions, are they trying to kill each other? Everyone's expressions gradually became brighter.
"Sister, just tell the truth. Your Majesty will definitely make the decision for us."
Does this mean that Chu Yunxi did not dare to tell the truth because he was afraid of the prince?
"Sister, we are biological sisters. Why do you want to alienate the prince and me? And you want to frame the prince Qingyu in front of the emperor and everyone?"
Chu Yunxi was heartbroken, and Chu Xueer was even worse:
"Sister, I am devoted to you, what are you doing?"
Which one is right and which is wrong? Some people watched the show with eyebrows raised in contemplation, some were gloating about the misfortune, and some were lamenting.
"Enough!"
The emperor gave a sharp shout and immediately fell silent.
"Do you think this is your Chu family's backyard? Chu Yunxi, tell me, what's going on?"
"Your Majesty makes atonement. My daughter accidentally sprained her foot in the palace. When the prince found out, he felt sorry for my daughter, so he took her to the East Palace to take care of her. Since there was a palace banquet in two days, I was worried that my daughter would have to rush back and forth.
The foot injury aggravated, so I allowed my daughter to rest in the side hall for two days, so that I can perform a dance today."
Chu Yunxi turned around and looked at Chu Xueer in confusion:
"Besides, on the second day, Your Highness also brought my sister to the East Palace to accompany my daughter. I don't know how, but my sister misunderstood this."
It turned out to be like this. Everyone suddenly realized that although the prince was cold-tempered, he would not be so ignorant and careless about human life.
"Sister, is the Crown Prince threatening you with the lives of our family members? Don't be afraid. The Emperor is here and His Highness the Crown Prince can do nothing."
Chu Xueer grabbed her arm and asked anxiously.
What does this mean? Chu Yunxi really doesn’t want to marry the prince, is the prince forcing her to marry?
