They gaze at each other from afar.
Di Jingling, however, never looked at him, but instead kept her eyes on Xiao Tang.
His eyes never left Xiao Tang.
Little Emperor: ? ? ?
Why is the Imperial Uncle staring at the Imperial Advisor with such a lecherous look?
He is not Sister Li.
Indeed, the adult world is far too complicated.
Fortunately, the morning court session and the task of welcoming the envoys were over.
The young emperor then instructed the Minister of Rites to properly entertain these distinguished guests.
But who knew...
Xiao Biyu looked displeased. "I am a princess of a country, after all. How can I be treated so rudely? Shouldn't the Regent personally receive me?"
She glanced at Di Jingling.
That look instantly became filled with infatuation.
Xiao Tang saw it all clearly and thought to herself: [Yue... don't look anymore, it's not yours even if you do.]
For reasons unknown, she deliberately moved her feet and blocked Di Jingling's path.
However, due to the height difference between the two, Xiao Tang couldn't actually block the princess's overly direct gaze.
She doesn't like it!
This woman's eyes were blatantly possessive!
It was as if everything was under her control, as if Di Jingling was already her possession.
“Princess, our Regent is very busy with many affairs of state and may not have time to take care of you. If you do not mind, I, the Imperial Tutor, am willing to serve you.”
Want to flirt with my villain? No way!
Take a piss and look in the mirror, what kind of person are you!
[Damn, I'm so angry, why is this so troublesome?]
Xiao Tang herself didn't know why she was so angry; it seemed she was getting too involved.
Di Jingling glanced at her with his eyes lowered, his expression unchanging.
The man's lips curled slightly.
It seemed pleasant.
Tangtang looks beautiful when she's jealous.
Qin Biyu didn't realize anything either. Her red lips pursed, and her face was full of disgust. "You?"
She glanced at Di Jingling.
They definitely wouldn't want to.
She had heard that the regent of the Great Sheng Kingdom possessed an otherworldly beauty, capable of captivating anyone at first glance.
The man many women dream of, yet dare not approach.
She fell in love with him at first sight; he was indeed her type.
Seeing the atmosphere growing increasingly tense, the young emperor, finally feeling he had a chance to shine, hurriedly spoke up: "Then, Ninth Imperial Uncle and the Imperial Advisor together..."
One sentence drew everyone's attention.
The young emperor shrank his neck.
Oh dear, I was terrified!
Did I say something wrong?
Xiao Tang also glared at the young emperor.
[You little brat, why are you interrupting adults? Absolutely unbelievable!]
[Does this woman have that much influence, that she expects both the Regent and the Grand Preceptor to lead the envoy on a tour of the capital?]
The young emperor was now more like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.
Shrinking his neck.
They didn't dare say a word.
Qin Biyu seemed very satisfied, a pleased smile curving her lips. "That's a good choice. I've heard that the scenery of Dasheng Capital is extremely beautiful. Tomorrow, I would appreciate it if you two could lead us on a tour."
Are you acting like a princess sent for a political marriage? So arrogant!
Anyone who didn't know better would think you were here to be treated like royalty, amen. I feel like smashing her head over.
Xiao Tang gave the woman a smile.
A forced smile.
She nodded gently. "That's absolutely right. Then... let's do it that way."
Qin Yanxi raised an eyebrow, looking at the two people in front of her, somewhat surprised.
He always felt that there was something unusual about the relationship between the Grand Preceptor and the Regent?
Based on past experience, aren't the Grand Preceptor and the Regent usually at odds?
How can the Great Sheng Kingdom be so magical?
The Imperial Advisor and the Regent are still so loving towards each other.
That's outrageous.
...
To welcome the envoy from the Western Qin Kingdom, the palace held a grand banquet.
Xiao Tang planned to leave before the palace banquet began to go back and change into the princess's attire.
Qin Biyu wished she could transform into Di Jingling's tail and follow him around forever.
She was really annoyed by what she saw.
But……
They were unwilling to leave so easily.
What if the villain does something stupid if we're not careful?
She must be patient.
When they took their seats, the seat next to Di Jingling was empty.
After all, it was specially set up for his queen.
but……
The princess did not appear today.
As the Imperial Advisor, Xiao Tang naturally had his own seat.
but……
Qin Biyu was quite self-aware and took the initiative to sit in the empty seat.
"Is this place empty? Then I, Your Majesty..."
Before he could even sit down, Xiao Tang grabbed him.
"Oh, Your Highness, I'm all alone. Why don't you sit here?"
Qin Biyu glared at Xiao Tang, wishing her gaze could turn into a death stare and pierce through Xiao Tang.
What's this imperial advisor up to?
Go ahead and glare at me. What can you do about it? I just love the way you can't stand me but can't do anything about it.
Xiao Tang smiled on the outside, but cursed inwardly.
Who cares what she thinks?
Anyone with a brain wouldn't want to sit in the empty seat next to the regent.
Everyone knew it was for the princess.
Qin Biyu gritted her teeth and was pulled to sit down next to the Grand Preceptor, her face full of gloom.
Not far away, Di Jingling looked at Xiao Tang's appearance, lowered his eyes, and chuckled to himself.
He's in a really good mood today.
It seemed even brighter than the sunshine outside.
He picked up his wine cup and took a small sip.
The rim of the cup perfectly concealed the slight curve of his lips.
He was delighted to see Xiao Tang's jealous expression.
Xiao Tang was quite enthusiastic, serving Qin Biyu food while saying, "Princess, you're so thin, eat more. The Regent prefers people who are a bit plump, with meat on their plate."
