Behind him, under the covered bridge, an elegant and handsome official stood with a frown. The patch on his chest showed a lifelike crane flying in the sky.
The official color is azurite which is completely different from the vermilion of Western Chu.
Hua Yi originally had a good appearance, and against the backdrop of the azure first-class court uniform, she looked majestic and awe-inspiring.
"I'm so sorry."
Lin Chu's eyes slowly swept around him: "I forgot that you are no longer my great consort of Western Chu, and now you should be called Master Hua. Long time no see, I don't think that Master Hua has become a first-class official in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, I am really disrespectful!"
Her words seemed respectful, but her tone and demeanor had nothing to do with respect. The sarcasm in her eyes was like a surging tide, almost swallowing up the flowers.
Hua Yi's expression became condensed, and there was sullenness in his eyes.
"I have never agreed to reconcile with the eldest princess. Furthermore, it is not Mr. Lin's turn to comment on Hua's private matters!"
"My emperor's decree has been issued, how can you disagree?"
Lin Chu took another look at the patch on his chest, and the smile on his lips grew colder.
"Master Hua is really talented. How long did it take for you to leave Beijing? Not only can you gain a firm foothold in Dongtang, but you can also hold a high position."
"Since you have switched to another country, don't act like you are deeply in love with the Princess Protector. It's really annoying..."
"nausea!"
Lin Chu was extremely glad that Duan Muyan was not allowed to accompany him this time to quell the chaos.
The little girl is soft-hearted. Although she has severed ties with Hua Yi and the Hua family, it is more because she wants to protect the face of Princess Hu.
How sad would it be if... she was asked to face Hua Yi now?
Hua Yi only showed a slight embarrassment when she first met Lin Chu. Now that Lin Chu had repeatedly snatched her away, her face only changed slightly and she was not angry. Instead, there was a little sadness in her eyes.
"I am now teaching at the Eastern Tang Dynasty Shang Shufang. The Emperor ordered me to teach the princes and princesses their studies. In the past, I did not participate in the government affairs. This status is just for the convenience of entering the palace, not what you imagined."
Hua also has the talent of being a top scholar, and he does have some talents and knowledge in his belly. Asking him to teach the prince and princess can be considered as making the best use of his talents, but... what does it have to do with her?
"Master Hua's path to promotion and wealth has nothing to do with Lin Chu. You don't need to explain to me."
She paused for a moment, and there was worry and a bit of sadness in her eyes: "Have you ever thought about whether Yan'er will be sad when you do this?"
The past can only be recalled, but when I look back, I am shocked to realize that the world has long since changed.
"Yan'er finally stood up from the harm caused by your Hua family. Are you so impatient that you want to destroy her?"
Lin Chu's eyes were as cold as frost, and his voice was as sharp as a sword.
With a father who holds a high position in another country, why would Duanmuyan want to be the princess of Xichu and a soldier who protects his family and country?!
The National Protectorate Army was Duan Muyan's only spiritual sustenance. She couldn't imagine whether she could survive after Duan Muyan was deprived of his military status.
"Hua Yi, you completely...ruined her."
Hua Yi took a breath, with suppressed anger in his eyes: "I did all this out of necessity, what do you, an outsider, know?"
As much as Lin Chu cherished Duanmuyan, he also hated Hua Yi.
"Master Hua, as the imperial envoy of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, wants to negotiate peace with me by name. You can say anything you want."
"As for your daughter."
Lin Chu sneered: "Master Hua's daughter is Princess Hualing of Southern Xinjiang and has nothing to do with Duan Muyan, the deputy commander of the Western Chu National Defense Army."
"Even if I try my best, I won't let anyone hurt her in the slightest, including you!"
