The streets were bustling with activity and grandeur. The people on both sides of the streets separated themselves from each other and stuck their heads out to look up and see what was happening.
In the middle of the horse team was a red sedan chair, with guards in front and behind, and behind the horses were boxes of gifts for betrothal.
The person leading the cavalry before was Liefeng.
His face was calm, but there seemed to be a rare fluctuation in his eyes. He kept his gaze fixed in one direction without moving away.
His mind was in a state of confusion, and he slowed down his pace.
He couldn't bear to move forward. Jing Yi should have had a better life, but why did God give her such an arrangement? He was not satisfied.
The Lie family and the Jing family are also sworn families. Their ancestors have had a brotherhood for generations, and this feeling is even stronger in his generation.
Unfortunately, he was indeed the personal guard beside His Majesty. His father had regarded this as an honor and let him enter the palace to protect His Majesty. After his status in the palace was high enough to match that of the Jing family, he went to the Jing family to propose marriage.
But who could have imagined that such an outcome would happen.
Now that he has an identity, he can only helplessly send Jing Yi into the palace. How can he bear to let her go? No, the girl he has been thinking about so much should be able to be with him and have a better life.
How could I resist His Majesty's authority? As a citizen of Dalin and His Majesty's personal bodyguard, loyalty is the most important thing no matter what.
If I don't obey your majesty's orders, it might bring trouble to my family.
If this is the case, then being hungry is truly a great sin. Even if you can do without anything else, you must never be without filial piety.
He sighed deeply, not knowing when this road would become so difficult, yet he still arrived as scheduled.
Liefeng looked at the plaque of Dingbei Marquis Mansion and clenched his hands tightly together.
Why is it me?
Why did God torture me like this? This should have been my wife, but now he can only send her to His Majesty, and through my own hands.
Liefeng stared at the plaque without moving, and was in a daze for a short while.
The attendants beside him were a little worried when they saw Liefeng like this. This matter must not be delayed. After all, Jing Yi was now the apple of His Majesty's eye.
Over the years, His Majesty has never treated any woman the way he treats Jing Yi. His Majesty has always been indifferent to them and never cared about their thoughts.
But Jing Yi is different. In addition to the rewards, she also has jewelry, clothes, etc. personally selected for her by His Majesty. This is enough to show her position in His Majesty's heart at this moment.
His Majesty is still waiting for her to enter the palace. If there is any delay, not only Lie Feng, but even their group will definitely not be able to escape punishment.
"Lord Liefeng, it's getting late. Let's hurry to the Marquis' Mansion."
The person behind him kindly pointed it out, and this instantly woke Liefeng up and realized that he had indeed lost his composure just now.
The people around gathered on both sides of the cavalry, talking noisily.
"Do you think His Majesty is truly sincere this time?"
"I don't think so. I'm afraid His Majesty is just curious. After all, such a beautiful woman with such a strong personality must have made him want to possess her."
"Don't tell me, His Majesty really meant it this time. Do you remember what His Majesty said in the early years?"
"What?"
"As His Majesty said, if His Majesty falls in love with her, she will become the apple of his eye."
