Princess Shenxian was sitting on the main seat with an expressionless expression. Even when she saw Lin Bai walking in, her expression did not change at all.
He even sneered twice and turned his head away, not looking at Lin Bai.
Sitting on both sides below were civil servants and generals from Prince Zeng Hong's palace.
The civil servants take the Chaoyu Stone as the main one, and the generals and Zhang Linghu take the honor.
Lin Bai entered the hall and bowed his hands in greeting: "I have met the princess."
"You don't need to be polite, Mr. Wolf Marquis." Princess Shenxian responded with a smile, and then ignored Lin Bai.
There was no arrangement for Lin Bai to sit down and talk first, so Lin Bai was asked to stand in the hall.
All the civil servants and generals present could tell... their princess seemed to dislike Lin Bai very much and was deliberately trying to make things difficult for him.
Everyone didn't quite understand why Lin Bai offended Princess Shenxian.
"Well, Lord Lang, please sit down first." Chao Yushi smiled and asked the servant to bring a stool for Lin Bai to sit down and talk.
Lin Bai was not only the holy son of the Tianshui Sect, but also the Langhou Ye of Chu State. He also made great achievements in supporting His Highness Prince Chen to ascend to the throne, and he had also promised to help Prince Hong's palace to redress the injustice.
No matter what the reason is, it is not polite to ask him to stand and talk.
But Lin Bai didn't take it seriously. He shook his head repeatedly with a sad face. He knew why Princess Shenxian was unhappy. It was most likely because of what happened between him and Chu Tinghan in the hunting world.
Although the engagement between Lin Bai and Princess Shenxian was nothing more than a delaying technique by Emperor Chu.
But after all, he was still the son-in-law of Prince Hong's Palace. If Lin Bai and Chu Tinghan's affairs were publicized, it would definitely cause Prince Hong's Palace to lose face.
Princess Shenxian turned her head and ignored Lin Bai, while Chao Yushi said: "The main reason for inviting Mr. Langhou to come today is to talk about what happened after His Highness Prince Chen became the crown prince."
Lin Bai nodded and replied: "Now His Royal Highness King Chen has just become the crown prince, and the sects and families celebrating his birthday in the imperial capital have not left. He has no time to deal with other matters now!"
Chao Yushi said he understood, "That's natural. Prince Hong's Palace has been waiting for so many years, and he doesn't care about waiting a few more days."
He smiled and said: "As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still remembers Prince Hong's Mansion."
His Highness King Chen has become the Crown Prince. It is reasonable to call him His Highness the Crown Prince now. On the contrary, it is a bit impolite to call him His Highness Prince Chen.
Lin Bai nodded and said: "I will remind His Highness the Crown Prince more, but I have also read through the files of the Zhaoxing Department on the case of Prince Hong's Mansion. The files are clear and coherent, and there seems to be no errors."
"I'm afraid it's impossible to overturn the verdict."
Chao Yushi said: "Master Langhou misunderstood, we do not want to reverse the case."
Lord Lang frowned, isn't this what Prince Hong's Mansion has been doing?
Chao Yushi sighed bitterly: "As Mr. Langhou said, the case back then was very clear and there was indeed no injustice at all."
"Princess..." Chao Yushi mentioned the princess, glanced at Princess Shenxian subconsciously, and said, "The princess is indeed a warrior from the Nine Nether Demon Palace, and she was also assigned by the Nine Nether Demon Palace to come to the palace."
"Although the princess has not done anything disrespectful to the Chu State and Prince Hong's Palace, her identity is indeed beyond doubt."
Chao Yushi said to Lin Bai: "We don't want to mention these things anymore. We just want to ask His Highness the Crown Prince to restore the status of Prince Hong's Palace so that we old guys can still have the opportunity to serve the Chu Kingdom loyally."
Lin Bai smiled happily and said: "If that's the case, it would be very simple. I believe His Highness the Crown Prince would also be happy to see Prince Hong's Mansion make a comeback and become a sharp sword in his hand."
Prince Hong's Mansion was originally a military lord, the sword in the hands of Emperor Chu of the Chu Kingdom.
"Since Lord Lang understands what we mean, we will wait for His Highness the Crown Prince's reply."
After Chao Yushi and Lin Bai had discussed it, and seeing that there was nothing else to do, they planned to stand up and leave.
Princess Shenxian kept turning her head to the side. When she knew that Lin Bai was about to leave, she slightly turned her eyes.
Really leaving?
Princess Shenxian was a little angry, and she quickly glared at Chao Yushi.
Chao Yushi felt Princess Shenxian's murderous gaze and hurriedly shouted: "Master Langhou, wait a minute, our princess has something to say."
Lin Bai stopped when he heard this and turned around to look at Princess Shenxian.
Princess Shenxian was angry and angry, and glared at Chao Yushi again.
Chao Yushi was stunned for a moment, "Uh, are you okay?"
Princess Shenxian shook her head speechlessly, then stood up from her seat and silently walked to the backyard: "Follow me."
Lin Bai sighed softly and followed silently up.
The two of them walked out of the meeting hall and came to the huge garden in the backyard of Prince Hong's Mansion.
Prince Hong's Mansion had been abandoned for many years, but since the return of Princess Shenxian, the Prince's Mansion has regained its vitality.
She liked planting flowers so much that the back garden of Prince Hong's Mansion was filled with hundreds of flowers and the fragrance was fragrant.
She walked among the flowers, with spiritual butterflies flying around her, like fairies descending from heaven to earth.
"Let me tell you one thing. Now that His Highness Prince Chen has successfully become the crown prince, it will only be a matter of time before he ascends the throne and becomes emperor."
"Then I will find time to ask His Majesty Emperor Chu to terminate the engagement between us."
Princess Shenxian turned her back to Wang Qing and said in a cold tone.
"It should be so." Lin Bai nodded calmly and agreed.
Princess Shenxian was so angry that she gritted her teeth when she heard this. She suddenly felt aggrieved and tears welled up in her eyes.
"good."
"Then let's go."
Princess Shenxian held back her tears, suppressed her crying, and allowed Lin Bai to leave.
"Thank you very much, Princess. I'll take my leave."
Lin Bai did not hesitate, bowed his hands and said goodbye, turned around and walked out of Prince Hong's Mansion.
After Lin Bai left, Princess Shenxian squatted among the flowers in the garden and cried like a little girl.
far away.
Chao Yushi and Zhang Linghu stood in the darkness of the corridor. Seeing Princess Shenxian's behavior, Zhang Linghu was so angry that he said, "That bastard dared to bully our princess. I will go and shave him alive right now."
While talking, Zhang Linghu was about to catch up with Lin Bai.
Chao Yushi pulled him back and said, "You can't beat Pan Qing."
"I..." Zhang Linghu was speechless for a moment, and then said: "I can't beat him, but our Prince Hong's Mansion can beat us. It's not easy to clean up a mere Tianshui Sect."
Chao Yushi said angrily: "If you destroy Tianshui Sect, the princess will not be happy."
Zhang Linghu frowned and asked: "Then what do you think we should do? Isn't it right to fight? Isn't it right not to fight? I'm at my wits end."
Chao Yushi smiled and rolled his eyes at him, and said: "You reckless man, besides spending money to find a girl in Mingyuefang, what else can you do."
"Why."
Chao Yushi looked at Princess Shenxian and secretly sighed: "Lin Bai doesn't think about the love of his children at all. If the princess entrusts her with such a responsibility, I'm afraid she will end up heartbroken in the end!"
"But that's right. Since you don't have your heart, it's best not to get entangled."
Chao Yushi also believed that Lin Bai did the right thing. Since it was impossible for him to get together with Princess Shenxian, he should break off the relationship early to avoid both of them ending up unsatisfactory.
