Chapter 975: Unfathomable
The Thousand Islands delegation is now in a very embarrassing situation.
What are you talking about unifying the world?
If the Great Sheng Dynasty really unifies the world, what place will their Thousand Islands have?
If they kneel down to the Emperor of Dasheng at this time, wouldn't that be an implicit agreement with what these Dasheng people said?
This can't be possible!
They are here to negotiate, not to surrender!
The Thousand Islands delegation, headed by Privy Councilor Guan Ying, could only stand there and stare at the emperor who was sitting at the top.
The atmosphere was indescribably weird.
Luo Qinghan was the first to break the silence and asked calmly, "Does the Privy Councilor seem dissatisfied?"
Guan Ying lowered his head quickly, showing a respectful attitude: "Your Majesty has misunderstood. We are convinced by your Majesty. To use the words of you Dasheng people, we admire you wholeheartedly."
Luo Qinghan: "Then why don't you kneel?"
Guan Ying was speechless.
How should he answer this?
No matter how you answer, it's wrong!
When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Guan Ying finally had no choice but to steel himself and kneel down.
When the delegation saw that the Privy Councilor had knelt down, they had no choice but to kneel down as well.
Even someone as short-sighted as Yi Mei noticed the tense atmosphere at this moment. She didn't dare to lose her temper anymore and knelt obediently on the white marble floor.
As a result, everyone present knelt down.
From the angle that Luo Qinghan and Xiao Xixi were looking from, they could only see the dark masses of heads overhead.
This feeling of looking down on everyone will make people feel a trance of self-superiority and it is easy to indulge in it.
This is why so many people try their best to seize the throne.
Who doesn’t want to be the best in the world?
Who doesn't want to have everything in the world in their hands?
Xiao Xixi: I just don’t want to.
What's so good about being an emperor? He has to go to work every day of the year, often working overtime, with no annual leave, no holidays, and even no salary. Not only that, he also has to be on guard against being usurped and murdered. His brain CPU always keeps running at high speed and must never stop. Even those who work 996 are not as hard-working as him. He is a model of social animals in the new era!
If she were to be the emperor, she would have only one thought -
There is no hope, let this world be destroyed!
While everyone was kneeling, Lao Wang quickly jumped up, rushed to Xiao Xixi's side, and dived into her arms.
“Meow~”
I was almost killed just now.
I'm so scared, please comfort me and please touch me.
Xiao Xixi took the opportunity to hug its chubby body and rubbed it hard with her hands.
The reason why Lao Wang was able to dodge the knife just now was because there was a small amulet hidden in the lucky bag on his neck.
That was specially prepared for it by Xixi.
Luo Qinghan said calmly, "Stand up."
Only then did everyone dare to stand up.
After the incredible scene just now, Yimei no longer dared to mention killing cats. She didn't even dare to look at the orange cat for another second.
The entire Thousand Islands delegation was in awe of the emperor and his fat cat.
In the past they thought that gods were just legends, until today when they witnessed the miracle with their own eyes, and then they knew that gods were not imaginary.
The handsome emperor standing high above us is the true dragon emperor blessed by the gods!
The banquet continues.
However, no one present had any appetite to eat or drink.
Almost everyone was absent-minded, their minds full of the incredible scene that had just happened.
People frequently set their eyes on the orange cat.
Facing everyone's stares, Lao Wang didn't care at all. He stayed in the imperial concubine's arms and refused to come out.
Seeing it bury its entire fat face in Xixi's chest, Luo Qinghan's eyes gradually became cold and dark.
Just at this time, Eunuch Chang brought up the chicken soup.
Luo Qinghan said to Xixi.
"Drink the soup while it's hot."
Seeing there was food, Xixi immediately let go of Lao Wang and started drinking the soup happily.
Luo Qinghan quietly reached his hand under the table and pushed the dead fat cat on the butt.
This time I used some internal force.
He pushed Lao Wang to the ground, causing him to roll and then fall heavily on his butt.
It slumped on the ground, opened its cat eyes wide, and looked at the emperor in disbelief.
This man actually plotted against Meow!
Luo Qinghan withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened and said lightly.
"This cat doesn't look very smart. Maybe it got scared and became insane."
Eunuch Chang immediately said, "I will take it to see a doctor right away."
He picked up the dazed orange cat and handed it to the eunuch behind him.
The young eunuch did not dare to delay and ran out quickly with the cat in his arms.
After finally getting rid of the annoying fat cat, Luo Qinghan's mood finally improved. Seeing Xixi finish the chicken soup, he asked in a low voice.
"Shall we go back?"
Xiao Xixi took the silk handkerchief from Baoqin and wiped her mouth, then nodded obediently: "Yes."
Without letting Baoqin do anything, Luo Qinghan personally helped Xixi stand up.
Everyone stood up to see the emperor and the imperial concubine off respectfully.
When passing by the Thousand Islands delegation, Xiao Xixi paused and said with a smile.
"I think the Third Princess is innocent and cute, and very likable. I want her to stay in the palace for a few days, so that I can have someone to talk to and not be too bored. I wonder if the Third Princess is willing?"
Yi Mei originally wanted to refuse, but then she changed her mind and thought, if she could stay in the palace, wouldn’t she have many opportunities to spend time with the emperor?
As long as they spend more time together, the emperor will naturally discover her good points.
She didn't know what she was thinking about, her cheeks flushed, and her eyes were full of anticipation for the future.
"Since the Imperial Concubine has invited me so kindly, I would be disrespectful to decline."
Xiao Xixi nodded with satisfaction: "Then you can live in Yunxiu Palace for the time being."
Yi Mei said yes without hesitation.
Guan Ying reminded: "The third princess's luggage is still in the Honglu Temple. We must go back and pack it up."
Xiao Xixi said, "Don't bother with that. I'll send someone to the Honglu Temple to get the Third Princess's luggage. The Third Princess can go with me now."
Yi Mei happily said yes.
She followed the imperial concubine and left Bigui Pavilion.
The little prince Yi Zhou pursed his lips and spoke cautiously to Guan Ying.
"Master Privy Councilor, will it be safe for my third sister to stay in the palace?"
That imperial concubine doesn't look like someone who is easy to deal with, and this is her territory. She has the best of both worlds, and the third princess is definitely no match for her.
Guan Ying narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "It shouldn't be the case. The Haisheng Flower that the Great Sheng Emperor wants is still in our hands. As long as the Haisheng Flower is not in our hands, they shouldn't dare to act rashly."
Yi Zhou nodded to show that he understood.
Guan Ying looked in the direction where the imperial concubine left, with a thoughtful expression.
"But this Imperial Concubine is really hard to figure out."
Just now, she resolved the conflict caused by the cat with just a few words. At the same time, she also gave the Thousand Islands delegation a warning and helped the Emperor of Dasheng establish his prestige.
This is definitely not something an ordinary concubine can do.
