My father embezzled tens of billions of taels of silver. Could it be that this amount of silver is nothing to them?
How is this possible?
How could this not be a thing?
Xiao Fan really couldn't figure out what was going on, but now was not the time to worry about it.
Kang Ding listened to Xiao Fan's thoughts and quickly said, "Father, Xiao Fan came to the palace this time and said he had something important to discuss with you!"
"Important matter?" Upon hearing Kangding's words, Emperor Showa immediately became interested. His gaze fell on Xiao Fan, and there was even more fondness in his eyes.
The more he looks at Xiao Fan now, the more he likes him!
"Xiao Fan, what good plan do you want to discuss with me?"
Xiao Fan felt confused when he heard his words.
Is there something wrong with this old emperor?
When did I say I had a good idea?
Although he thought so, Xiao Fan didn't dare to actually say this idea out loud.
Not to mention anything else, even my life and that of my stepfather are in danger!
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Fan bravely spoke, "Your Majesty, I came here to cancel the engagement. I beg for your permission!"
As Xiao Fan spoke, he knocked his head heavily to the ground without hesitation.
Xiao Fan used a lot of strength to hit this end, and it made a loud noise when it hit the ground.
As Xiao Fan said this, the entire imperial study fell silent at that moment.
Princess Kangding's expression changed again and again, and then she couldn't help but reveal her anger, "Xiao Fan!"
This Xiao Fan!
He just told me that he had important matters to discuss with the emperor, but it turns out that his important matter is to break off the engagement with me?
Kangding felt like he was going to be pissed off to death by this guy Xiao Fan!
When Emperor Showa heard what Xiao Fan said, he was stunned for a moment and then his expression became serious.
At this moment, he stopped talking, and the royal aura of majesty that came from him without even getting angry suddenly began to emanate.
At this moment, the entire imperial study was filled with a huge sense of oppression.
Emperor Showa.
Although he didn't reign for long, he was one of the few wise rulers in the Great Yan Dynasty. Most importantly, this wise ruler killed many people! He was truly decisive and ruthless!
At this moment, Xiao Fan actually dared to talk about canceling the engagement. This was simply touching the sore spot of Emperor Showa!
Not to mention anything else, the previous marriage was granted only after Xiao Chengshan asked for permission in the court!
Feeling the gaze of Emperor Showa falling on him, Xiao Fan felt a huge pressure. However, even so, he gritted his teeth and kowtowed again, "Your Majesty, please grant me your permission!"
Emperor Showa didn't say anything, but his face had turned completely cold at this moment.
For a moment, the temperature in the entire imperial study seemed to have dropped completely.
Xiao Fan broke out in a cold sweat.
Of course he knew that if he did this, he could lose his head at any time!
But given the current situation, I can only bet on this!
The Xiao family's power is already complicated and intertwined. Perhaps it is precisely because of her engagement with Kangding that the emperor is wary of her!
"Your Majesty, I know I deserve death. Please forgive me!"
Xiao Fan knelt on the ground, his heart pounding, but he still tried to stay calm.
There was really nothing he could do about this matter. First, he gave away all his family wealth, and then he broke off the engagement. This was to guard against the emperor, and secondly, to guard against Gu Bufan.
These two people are like swords hanging over his head, making him uneasy day and night!
“Okay, okay, okay!”
After a long time, Emperor Showa finally spoke. His voice was gloomy but he laughed directly.
It was obvious that Emperor Showa was on the verge of rage at this moment.
Even Princess Kangding, who was always doted on, was cautious and did not dare to speak at this moment.
Naturally, she knew her father's character best!
But she really didn't expect that Xiao Fan was so bold that he dared to cancel the engagement!
Kang Ding couldn't help but give Xiao Fan a look, asking Xiao Fan to take back what he had just said.
However, Xiao Fan had already made up his mind at this moment, and he pretended not to see anything when facing Princess Kangding's eyes.
"Your Majesty, I did not mean to offend you or the princess intentionally. I just have an idea. Once the Xiao family's wealth is gone, I want to go to the frontier and serve my country!"
"What did you say?"
After hearing what Xiao Fan said, Emperor Showa's expression finally looked better.
"Your Majesty, I have made up my mind!"
[Gu Bufan is pressing me hard right now, and Liu Pingping is staring at me all the time. I might as well take this opportunity to get away!]
"Anyway, I don't want to stay in Beijing any longer with all this trouble! The frontier is great. The mountains are high and the roads are long, and no one can control me!"
"Besides, my father has worked hard over the years, even if he hasn't made any contributions. He gave away all his wealth and resigned from his official position to retire. I don't believe he can really be killed off."
[As for Princess Kangding, why are you looking at me like that? I have no choice. You belong to Gu Bufan, so you can only belong to him!]
Xiao Fan thought about this and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Kang Ding couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard Xiao Fan's thoughts.
She had always thought that Xiao Fan wanted to break off the engagement with her because he didn't like her, but she never expected that the truth... was actually like this!
All of this was actually because of Gu Bufan!
Not only that, he also wants to guard the border!
Such words...
Kangding looked at Xiao Fan, and as his eyes moved, his favorable impression of Xiao Fan became even stronger.
Although until now, she still didn't know why Xiao Fan was so afraid of Gu Bufan, but now it seems that Xiao Fan is completely thinking about himself and the entire Dayan!
"Father!" Thinking of this, Kang Ding couldn't help herself and stood up directly, "Your Majesty, I think Xiao Fan must have some unspeakable reasons for making this decision!"
"I am willing to break off my engagement with Xiao Fan and go to the border with him to protect the border of Great Yan!"
"What did you say?"
Emperor Showa looked at Kangding with disbelief in his eyes.
What's going on in Kangding?
Although Kang Ding did agree to their previous engagement, he clearly remembered that Kang Ding hated Xiao Fan very much!
But what was going on with Kangding now? Why was he even talking to Xiao Fan?
Emperor Showa was confused. He looked at Kangding and Xiao Fan, frowned and said nothing.
"A secret that cannot be told? What is it?" After a long time, Emperor Showa finally spoke.
As he spoke, his serious eyes fell directly on Xiao Fan, waiting for Xiao Fan's answer.
Xiao Fan was completely stunned.
He turned his head to look at Kangding, his eyes full of disbelief.
What's going on?
Why is this the development trend?
What's wrong with you, little princess? I asked to break off the engagement, shouldn't you have just agreed? Why did you agree and then add the requirement to leave with me?
