Chapter 56: Marriage



Nangong Muchi, feeling everyone's gaze, twitched his eyebrows almost imperceptibly, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Nangong Muchi outside the colorful veil. He saw that he had his hands behind his back and his eyes seemed to be wandering in his direction.

Such a subtle change made Zongzheng Xiaoting alert and secretly frightened.

I wonder if the Regent of Tianxi Kingdom knows martial arts? I was careless. If it is true as Doctor Chen said, people with deep internal strength can detect the existence of people far away, it must be because of the slightest disturbance. So...

Zong Zheng Xiaoting frowned, wondering if everything he said just now would be known to everyone.

From the moment Nangong Muchi stepped into the hall of Zhaoshu Palace, he had been acting very casual. Whether it was his gestures or his steps, he easily gave people the feeling of a bohemian and dandy young man.

But..

Zong Zheng Xiaoting narrowed his eyes. In psychology, when Nangong Muxi was complaining about this, his first reaction was to put his hands behind his back!

Psychologically, such behavior is nothing more than a display of status or a manifestation of caution.

Such radioactive actions are far beyond the image that Nangong Muchi presents to the public. This person is not as frivolous as he appears, but a shrewd, calm and steady person.

He, who had originally treated everything calmly, now, intentionally or unintentionally, tilted his body slightly to this direction, as if he was searching for something.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting's heart suddenly tensed up. He was too proud of himself for a moment and was afraid that there would be more trouble.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting hesitated for a moment, picked up the paper and pen in front of the table, wrote a few words, and lowered his voice: "Qingqing, ask Ningshuang to pass it to Doctor Chen."

Seeing her master's expression suddenly become serious, Qingqing put away her playful smile and walked towards the colorful gauze behind Zongzheng Xiaoting with a serious face.

Neither the Empress nor Concubine Rou should attend the palace banquet tonight. Their faces that are too similar make it easy for Situ Xunxiao to notice that the Empress and Concubine Rou simply compromised with the Emperor on the grounds of considering the overall situation and not wanting to give up Zong Zheng Xiaoting. Although the marriage has not been settled, the Empress and Concubine Rou are worried about something, but Zong Zheng Weimo already has an 80% answer in his heart.

This time, the grievances suffered by the Empress and Concubine Rou made Zong Zheng Wei Mo feel even more guilty. In order to avoid the possibility that the marriage would make the two of them feel uncomfortable at the palace banquet, Zong Zheng Wei Mo was naturally considerate and allowed the Empress and Concubine Rou to not attend.

And Qingqing had to avoid being met by Situ Xunxiao at this moment, so she could only cover up her face and voice and stay with Zongzheng Xiaoting all the time.

In order to make things convenient for Zong Zheng Xiaoting, Concubine Rougui assigned her maid Ningshuang to Zong Zheng Xiaoting, which just happened to solve Zong Zheng Xiaoting's urgent need at the moment.

"Prince Zhan is here!" When Qingqing handed the note to Ningshuang, another Prince of War from Yunguang Kingdom, who had aroused everyone's speculation and discussion, also appeared in Zhaoshu Palace.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked up from the desk and saw that Situ Xunxiao was even more frosty today than usual. He walked to his seat step by step, calmly looking around.

The gasps from all around, although the sounds were suppressed, still came one after another. Of course, there were also some women who were attracted by the cold and arrogant Situ Xunxiao in front of them.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting was curious and squinted his eyes to try to see Situ Xunxiao's expression through the colored veil. But he closed his eyes and looked calm.

This Situ Xunxiao is quite rude.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting raised the corner of his mouth. At this palace banquet, no matter whether it was the heated discussions or the admiration and adoration, the absent-mindedness shown by Situ Xunxiao with his eyes closed was already very obvious.

It seems that although he is interested in this marriage, Situ Xunxiao's arrogant attitude shows that he is overconfident in himself.

Just as Zong Zheng Xiaoting was concentrating on paying attention to the movements of Nangong Muchi and Situ Xunxiao, Ningshuang also hurriedly ran back to where Zong Zheng Xiaoting was.

"Princess." Ningshuang's quiet face flushed from the hurried running. She breathlessly delivered Doctor Chen's answer to her master.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting smiled, put his hand on Ningshuang's back and patted her on the back to relieve the discomfort caused by excessive breathing, but this made the little girl open her eyes wide in disbelief.

Qingqing looked at Ningshuang's expression and couldn't help but smile again, "Ningshuang, the princess is just like that. She treats people she trusts with no distinction of high or low. You'll get used to it in the future."

Qingqing's words made Ningshuang's shock even more obvious.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting looked at Ningshuang's frightened face, shrugged innocently, and then opened the paper with the reply from Doctor Chen.

All I saw were black words on white paper, clearly visible before my eyes.

Rumor has it that the Regent of Tianxi Kingdom is on par with the God of War King, but there has never been any evidence of a competition between them, so there must be a reason for the rumor.

Doctor Chen's few concise words made Zong Zheng Xiaoting's heart suddenly feel uneasy.

The ancients were right when they said, "Born in sorrow and die in comfort." The mistake I just made is exactly the same.

The breath exhaled from the nose is heavy and long.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting frowned and looked at Nangong Muchi, praying silently. He thought all this was just unnecessary worry. Moreover, if he sneered at him, he was afraid that the man's self-esteem would be hit and he would not want to see him even more. Nangong Muchi would not compete with Situ Xunxiao for this.

Just when all the guests for the banquet had arrived, the emperor walked forward slowly with Concubine Zhen.

"See the Emperor!"

"I have met the Lord of Luozha."

For a moment, the greetings in Zhaoshu Hall were in unison and loud.

"No need to be polite, everyone." Zong Zheng Xiaoting had a dignified look on his face, sitting upright in the main seat, and raised his hand to signal the ministers and envoys.

After a few greetings, some official rhymes, and some singing and dancing, Zongzheng Xiaoting watched Zongzheng Weimo and the envoys of the two countries going back and forth, feeling bored, and yawned.

However, this comfortable time did not last forever.

The Crown Prince of Tianxi Country spoke first, "Your Majesty, I am here on the orders of my father to seek the Crown Princess. I am sure that Your Majesty has seen my father's letter and is fully aware of his intentions."

Finally, we are getting down to business!

Zong Zheng Xiaoting was startled, sat up straight, and listened attentively, fearing that he had missed anything.

"It seems that our emperor's idea coincides with that of the king of Tianxi Kingdom." Situ Xunxiao, who had been silent all the time, interrupted Zongzheng Weimo's hesitation and spoke with his voice at the right time.

Zong Zheng Xiaoting blinked his eyes. The regent prince, who was good at disguising himself, faced the cold and composed god of war. This rumor would soon become a reality. The fun show was about to begin.

At this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting was very excited, holding his chin up and waiting for a battlefield without any smoke to appear.
