Whether Xie Zhan's thing is fake or not, only he himself knows; of course, no one else could know.
Feng Guang felt like she was sitting on pins and needles. She dared not move, but she had to put on an act of "I am a young lady, and I am very unhappy." She deeply realized what it meant to lift a rock only to drop it on one's own foot.
Before the princess could speak, His Majesty, seated on the throne, already showed his displeasure, "Is this a young lady from General Xie's household?"
The Empress said, "She is Lord Xie Xun's daughter, the eldest daughter of the Xie family."
"I agree. This Miss Xie doesn't seem like the talented woman the Empress described to me." This statement clearly indicated displeasure.
Xie Xun quickly stepped forward, "My daughter is ignorant of etiquette and has offended the princess. Please forgive her."
After saying that, he glared at Feng Guang and gestured for her to get off her third uncle.
Fengguang was on the verge of tears. She wanted to cry too, but she had already boarded this pirate ship, and it had already drifted far away. She couldn't get off!
Xie Zhan sighed again, "I have been at the border for many years and have rarely been able to spend time with my family. My elder brother is also serving in Sishui City, so I have even less contact with his family. Now, the younger generation in my household are very dependent on me, which makes me feel the strong bond between family members. This kinship has touched me deeply. However, it is also true that Feng Guang does not know the rules. If Your Majesty and the Princess are displeased, please punish me."
These words remind one of Xie Zhan, who guarded the frontier for ten years without complaint. Even though his achievements were enough to warrant a title in the capital, he remained at the border without regret because there were no capable generals in the court. His unwavering loyalty alone is enough to earn him admiration.
His Majesty felt guilty and coughed, then said, "Miss Xie from the General's family is still young, at an age of innocence and liveliness. She was just acting on impulse. It would be unreasonable to punish her. What do you think, Princess?"
Since you've already said that, what else can a foreign princess say?
"Your Majesty is right. I have long heard of the deep bond within the Xie family, and now that I have seen it, I can confirm it is true." The princess lowered her head, her face darkening. Xie Zhan hadn't reacted to her at all. Was he even a man?
Xie Zhan is not only a man, but also a man with a very strong reaction.
This was Feng Guang's personal experience. She smiled throughout, and with a face almost frozen from smiling, she whispered, "Can you put me down now?"
"Not yet." Xie Zhan also lowered his voice, "Fengguang Helps people to the end, you can't come down now."
As soon as she came down, his obvious reaction... it was all exposed to everyone.
Feng Guang shut his mouth and raised his hand to cover his face.
"Young lady, your name is Feng Guang, and you are General Xie's niece?" The princess swayed over and smiled. She slowly removed the veil from her face, revealing a face with exotic features, truly a beauty that could topple empires.
Even in the limelight, she didn't think she could surpass her, until a pair of hands covered Fengguang's eyes.
Xie Zhan said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Princess, Feng Guang is a little shy."
After speaking, Xie Zhan deliberately avoided looking at the princess.
The princess glanced at her half-exposed chest. She hadn't thought much of it before, but now she couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable. The other person hadn't even looked at her face. She bit her lip and said, "My name is A Xi Yu. General, you may call me by my name."
