Chapter 333 He Deserves It
The next day at noon, the Great Prince of Mobei arrived at the Beiling Palace as scheduled.
The banquet to entertain the envoys was held in Mingchun Palace, and the Queen Mother personally sent someone to invite An Yunxi, the Regent Princess, to attend the palace banquet. With
Ling Fengxun present, An Yunxi certainly would not refuse. She had already picked out a palace dress, put on some makeup, and went to the banquet with the prince.
There were not many people at the banquet today.
The emperor and the Empress Dowager sat at the top, and the Queen Mother accompanied the Empress Dowager. The first seat on the right was for the Regent Ling Fengxun.
A moment later, a report from the eunuch came from the palace gate: "The eldest prince of Mobei, the princess has arrived!"
An Yunxi was sitting next to Ling Fengxun. The two did not stand up, but turned their heads silently to look at the person coming to the door.
Unexpectedly, Ling Changning is so lucky.
In the previous life, Ling Rou did not survive more than half a year in Mobei.
And this Ling Changning actually had the opportunity to follow the prince of Mobei back. He really has some ability.
But when the two entered the door, Ling Changning's appearance still scared everyone present.
The eldest princess who was still respected and precious when she left the palace that year, now appeared in front of everyone, as thin as a living skeleton.
Her cheeks were sunken, her face was sallow, her eyes were lifeless, and there were dark circles under her eyelids.
When she walked, she was a little shaky, and one of her legs seemed to be injured.
Even with the extremely delicate makeup on her face, it couldn't cover up the heavy deathly aura emanating from her.
There was no longer the brilliance she once had.
An Yunxi couldn't help but retract her gaze, lowered her eyes, and a coldness flashed in her eyes.
The eldest prince of Mobei had already walked to the center of the hall at this time, and then saluted Ling Changyue above.
"Sangge pays homage to the emperor."
His etiquette was different from that of the Central Region, with a unique wild and sacred taste.
This man was tall, and there were few men in the Central Region who could compare with him. Standing there like an iron tower, giving people a very heavy sense of oppression.
The clothes he wore were also very different. His long hair was intertwined with a few braids, and his arms were bare, with strong muscles bulging on his arms.
His skin was dark red and rough due to exposure to the sun, and his facial features were deep and sharp, as if they were carved by a knife.
However, between his eyebrows, one could still vaguely see the violence and ferocity hidden in them.
Ling Changning stood beside him, looking even thinner and frailer, as if the other party's hand could directly break her waist.
It's not the kind of ambiguous meaning, it's really able to cut off
When Ling Changning raised her head and looked at Ling Changyue who was sitting above her, her pair of dead eyes finally showed a little light, her dry and cracked lips trembled, and just as she was about to speak, she felt the deep gaze of the man beside her.
"Emperor"
her voice was hoarse and unpleasant, but she swallowed the rest of the words, and finally didn't mention a word, just leaned over and saluted Ling Changyue gently.
That body, it seems that a gust of wind can blow her away.
After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Ling Changyue didn't expect Ling Changning to become like this.
He stood up instantly, his face was extremely ugly.
"Sangge, how could my sister become like this?"
Sangge said with some guilt on her face: "Your Majesty, my beloved concubine was not used to the climate in Mobei. As soon as she arrived there, she fell seriously ill. Father found the best wizard in the tribe to treat her. Now she is getting better. Don't worry, as long as I am here, I will definitely protect my beloved concubine."
The other party's voice was calm and there was nothing wrong with it.
And the reason he found was also very appropriate. As the princess of Beiling, Ling Changning was not used to the climate in Mobei, which was reasonable.
Ling Changyue's heart was full of anger. Seeing his own sister become like this, how could he listen to Sangge's explanation!
"Before leaving Beiling, my sister was fine, but now she has been worn out like this. Is this how you take care of my sister?"
Hearing the little emperor's angry questioning, Sangge's tone became much colder.
"Your Majesty, although your sister was a princess before, she is now my beloved concubine. Her life has belonged to me since the day she left Beiling. Are you going to punish me?"
Sangge's sudden tough tone made Ling Changyue feel depressed.
When Ling Changning heard Ling Changyue speak for her, her nose suddenly soured. The feeling of finally seeing her relatives made her feel as if she had found the courage. She suddenly ran forward and knelt in front of Ling Changyue.
Ling Changning didn't care that there were other people watching, and she didn't want to care whether Sangge would be angry or not. She just grabbed Ling Changyue's sleeve with trembling hands, knelt on the ground and kept begging.
"Your Majesty, let Changning stay. Changning doesn't want to go to Mobei anymore!"
Her voice was extremely miserable, her eyes were red, and they were full of mist.
An Yunxi sat quietly beside her drinking tea, looking at Ling Changning's miserable appearance, a cold arc appeared at the corner of her mouth.
She was lucky that she still had a chance to run back and ask for help.
But in her last life, Wen Lingrou, who married in her place, never came back. In the end, all she knew was her death.
Ling Changyue leaned over and helped Ling Changning up from the ground: "Changning, my brother is here. I'll see who dares to touch you today!"
Sangge narrowed his eyes, and his eyes gradually became cold.
He suddenly said: "When the princess married last year, I, Mobei, presented Beiling with tens of thousands of war horses and countless fine furs as betrothal gifts. Now, is the emperor going to regret it?"
When Ling Changning heard this, her face became even uglier. Seeing the hesitation on Ling Changyue's face, she pulled up her sleeves and exposed her right arm.
"Your Majesty, Mobei is simply hell. Look at the scars on Changning's body, they are all left by him. Every time he comes back, he would beat me severely, bang my head on a piece of wood, and kick me hard in the lower abdomen. Changning just had a miscarriage not long ago, but even so he would not let me go. If you don't save Changning, Changning will definitely die."
Her voice was full of panic, and her pupils trembled violently, which was the color of fear.
"Besides, it's not just him, even the old man, the Mobei King, and his two brothers are also trying to do something to Changning. Changning really can't survive!" As
soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was shocked.
Even the face of the Empress Dowager showed some pity.
The Empress Dowager gently covered her lips with a handkerchief, her eyes were full of excitement, and she looked at Ling Changning with sympathy.
She sighed a little in her heart. Who made her offend the princess? She deserved this fate.
