As an emperor, he was neither legitimate nor respectable, and was not favored by the goddess. At that time,
The emperor didn't dare to think further.
He didn't dare to deal with Li Junyan easily, but this feeling of not daring made him, the emperor, feel extremely depressed.
Since ancient times, which emperor has ever treated him like this?
If this gets out, or even recorded in history, he will become a joke that will be passed down for thousands of years!
Li Decheng waited for a long time, but the emperor didn't speak, and he became more and more uneasy.
He knew that what he had just said had upset the emperor.
But he still had to say it.
Now I say that the emperor is just unhappy.
But if he doesn't tell it, he will most likely die.
He can still clearly distinguish which one is more important between the two.
The atmosphere in the imperial study became increasingly solemn. Li Decheng even breathed very slowly, fearing that his breathing would disturb the emperor and he would be dragged out and beheaded.
At this moment, Eunuch Qian came in.
"Your Majesty." Eunuch Qian hunched over, his voice flattering, "Miss Zhao has been brought here and is waiting outside."
The emperor seemed to be awakened by these words. He glanced at Eunuch Qian calmly and said, "Let her in."
Eunuch Qian was startled and felt a tingling sensation on the back of his neck.
The look the emperor just gave him made him feel like he was about to die.
Not daring to delay any further, Eunuch Qian immediately walked out quickly and called Zhao Wanxi in.
Zhao Wanxi's current appearance can't be said to be particularly embarrassed, but it also looks a little weird.
The clothes he was wearing were obviously new and clean.
Although her hair was combed neatly, it was wet and her face was not made up.
Apparently, she was bathing when Eunuch Qian went there.
The emperor summoned Zhao Wanxi, and she didn't dare to delay for even a second. She simply packed up and came, so that's why she looked like this.
"Your Highness."
Zhao Wanxi bowed and knelt obediently on the ground.
The emperor didn't let her get up, so she didn't dare to get up on her own.
The emperor looked down at her, "Zhao Wanxi, I heard that the goddess saved you several times. Are you grateful?"
Zhao Wanxi didn't understand why the emperor asked this, but she could only tell the truth, "I am grateful."
She had been saved several times. If she didn't express gratitude, would the emperor think she was a cold-blooded person?
The emperor raised the corner of his mouth with a hint of smile, "The goddess supports the prince. You are grateful to the goddess, but are you also grateful to the prince?
I cancelled your engagement with Prince Chen. Do you feel sorry for it?"
"It's not a pity for this humble servant." Zhao Wanxi took a deep breath to embolden herself, "The Prince of Chen has no interest in this humble servant, and he didn't accept the imperial decree granting the marriage.
Although my status is not as noble as that of the Prince, as a woman, I still know how to respect myself and would never be willing to marry him out of shame.
I would rather remain single for my entire life than marry someone who doesn't love me.
As for my feelings towards the Prince of Chen, I will not hide it from Your Majesty. It was the goddess who saved me, not the Prince of Chen. I will be grateful to the goddess, but not to the Prince of Chen.
Prince Chen is just a prince, a bridge for the goddess to save the people of the world, but he cannot represent the goddess. "
"Well said!"
The emperor just slammed the table and said, "You are very smart, good at speaking, and can distinguish facts.
Don't worry, even if Prince Chen is gone, I won't let you remain single for the rest of your life.
King Jing is not married yet, so I will give you to him as his princess. What do you think?
Although the emperor asked this, Zhao Wanxi knew in her heart that the emperor did not need her answer.
The emperor can do whatever he wants, so why does he need the consent of his subjects?
The only thing she needs to do now is to thank the emperor for his grace.
Zhao Wanxi fell to the ground and said, "I will obey the emperor."
"Okay! Li Decheng, draft the decree!"
When Zhao Wanxi came out of the imperial study, it was already dark.
Eunuch Qian followed behind her, holding the imperial edict in his hand.
When the two passed by Li Junyan, they did not stop for a moment, as if they did not even see Li Junyan.
It wasn't just the two of them. All the servants coming and going in the yard seemed to be oblivious to Li Junyan's presence.
Here, their only master is the emperor, and they only listen to the emperor.
Sang Jueqian had seen similar scenes when watching ancient TV dramas before.
At that time, apart from feeling sorry for the male protagonist, I didn't have much other feeling.
I might even think that this is the nature of the times and there is no need to get angry.
But now, watching Li Junyan standing here for an entire afternoon, and it was almost dark, and he still had to stand there, Sang Jueqian was furious.
She doesn't care about the historical background or how powerful the emperor is.
She is already a goddess. If she can't protect the people she wants to protect, then what's the point of being a goddess?
