Ruoxi took a deep breath and calmed her inner panic and shyness.
The image of her throwing herself into her brother's arms just now was still lingering in her mind, making her ears burn.
But now is not the time to think about these things!
The dignity and elegance that belonged to the imperial princess quickly returned to her.
Her beautiful face regained its usual calm and composure.
only!
When I think about returning to the palace and facing Huhanye.
Her heart still became slightly nervous uncontrollably.
But it doesn't matter.
Ruoxi glanced secretly at Ye Chen beside her from the corner of her eye.
Looking at that expression that always seems calm and composed, as if everything is under control.
An inexplicable sense of security suddenly surged into her heart.
As long as I have my brother by my side, I am not afraid even if the sky falls!
Any difficulties will be easily solved! His eyes suddenly became firm.
"Well, with my brother here, Ruoxi is not afraid!"
Ruoxi is now in the Golden Core stage and has stood at the top of the Tianchen Continent.
She was not afraid of Huhanye, but out of kindness she did not want to cause a war between the two countries.
If the two top powers in Tianchen Continent launch a national war, it will be a large-scale and protracted war.
By then, there will be corpses everywhere and blood will flow like a river.
In the end, it was the ordinary people of Daxia who suffered. They were separated from their wives and children and became displaced.
This is something Ruoxi's kind heart doesn't want to see.
Now that Ye Chen is here, she believes that Ye Chen can handle this matter.
“Oh…”
The spirit horse pulling the carriage neighed, and the carriage stopped steadily at the gate of the palace.
"Your Highness, Grandpa, we are outside the palace gate."
Xiaodie's voice sounded at the right time, with a hint of respect.
Although she and Ruoxi grew up together and were like sisters, Ruoxi never treated her as a maid.
When there was no one around, they addressed each other as sisters, but when she returned to the palace, she had to observe the etiquette of respect and hierarchy.
Ruoxi adjusted her clothes and was the first to get off the carriage.
His noble temperament and the aura of a superior are undoubtedly revealed.
Ye Chen looked calm, standing with his hands behind his back, following closely behind.
Xiaodie followed obediently at the end.
The towering vermilion palace gate is right in front of us, dozens of feet high and magnificent.
On both sides of the palace gate, the imperial guards, wearing armor and holding long spears, stood solemnly, their eyes as sharp as eagles.
A solemn atmosphere came over me.
According to the palace rules, any carriage, even the princess's, must stop outside the palace gate and enter on foot.
The three of them just got off the horse and stood still.
"Her Highness the Ninth Princess is welcome back to the palace!"
The imperial guards on both sides of the palace gate all knelt on one knee to welcome the return of the Ninth Princess of Daxia.
"No need to be polite!"
Ruoxi raised her hand slightly, her voice soft but revealing the majesty of a superior.
"Thank you, Princess!"
After the imperial guards expressed their thanks, they all stood up.
"This humble general pays homage to Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess!"
At this moment, a voice as loud as a bell, filled with iron-blooded murderous aura, rang out.
A middle-aged general wearing black iron armor, with a burly figure, a resolute face, and an awe-inspiring presence, walked forward.
He clasped his hands together, bent slightly, and performed the emperor-subject salute to Ruoxi.
"Uncle Wei, please get up quickly!"
Ruoxi quickly stepped forward and used a gentle spiritual power to lift the general up in the air.
"Ruoxi is just a junior, she can't accept such a generous gift from Uncle Wei!"
Her tone was filled with the respect of a younger generation for their elders and a hint of coquettishness.
Obviously, their relationship is not an ordinary relationship between a monarch and his subjects.
Wei Qi, the general of the Great Xia Kingdom, was responsible for controlling the entire Great Xia Kingdom's military.
Since childhood, he has grown up wearing open-crotch pants with the current emperor, Ruoxi's father.
The two are as close as brothers and have experienced life and death together.
He is also the most trusted right-hand man of the current emperor.
In the entire Great Xia Kingdom, in terms of status, almost no one can match His Majesty.
Wei Qi was also loyal to Daxia and the emperor of Daxia, and never had any second thoughts.
Wei Qi laughed heartily after being helped up by Ruoxi's spiritual power.
"Hahaha!"
The laughter was loud and full of energy, making the air buzz.
"Niece Ruoxi, you are too kind!"
"We in Daxia are a country of etiquette. There is a distinction between the ruler and his subjects, and order between superiors and subordinates! This etiquette cannot be abandoned because of a personal relationship!"
His words showed both the toughness and directness that are unique to soldiers, as well as the unrestrained and heroic spirit that comes from experience on the battlefield.
However, he always kept in mind the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects, and did not overstep the bounds in the slightest due to his close relationship with the royal family.
This sense of proportion is just right.
At this time, General Cheng and General Yuchi, who were responsible for escorting Ruoxi, stepped forward.
"This humble general greets the great general!"
They knelt on one knee, cupped their hands, and saluted Wei Qi.
His eyes were filled with awe for the supreme commander of the army.
Wei Qi's eyes swept over the two of them like lightning, and then he nodded slightly.
"Yeah. Get up!"
"The two generals have worked hard all the way and escorted Her Royal Highness the Princess back to the Imperial City safely. This is a great achievement."
"Your Majesty will definitely reward you handsomely once you learn of this!"
Wei Qi's eyes flashed with lightning, and there was a pleased smile on his face. He was very satisfied that the two had completed the escort mission.
Wei Qi's gaze turned and inadvertently fell on Ye Chen who was beside Ruoxi.
With just one glance, the pupils of this battle-hardened general suddenly shrank.
What a handsome and noble young man!
Although Ye Chen still has a head full of silver hair, he has now recovered after a period of recovery.
He is no longer the sickly old man he was half a year ago.
Instead, he looked like a young man who was only in his twenties.
His figure is as straight as a pine tree, his face is extremely handsome, and he wears a simple blue shirt, but it can't hide his extraordinary temperament.
His eyes were as calm as a deep pool, yet contained a vast sea of stars, making it impossible to see through them!
This is an extraordinary temperament!
A kind of indifference and calmness that puts one above all living beings and regards everything as straw dogs!
Wei Qi's heart was filled with shock and anxiety!
He has been in charge of the military of Daxia for decades. What kind of heroes has he not seen?
Those young men of noble families who claim to be from prominent families, or those talented and famous literati in the capital.
Compared with the young man in front of me, they all pale in comparison!
Such bearing and grace, he is simply an immortal banished from the nine heavens!
This person is definitely not an ordinary person!
The name flashed involuntarily in Wei Qi's mind - Huhanye.
If Huhanye had half of this man's temperament, or even only a third of his demeanor and grace.
I'm afraid that His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia will not resolutely refuse the marriage?
What a pity...
Thinking of this, Wei Qi's curiosity and respect for the mysterious young man in front of him became stronger.
He suppressed the surprise in his heart, restrained the iron-blooded murderous aura in his body, and showed a trace of seriousness on his face.
He took a step forward and bowed to Ye Chen with a very humble attitude.
"Your Excellency has an extraordinary temperament and is outstanding. You must be no ordinary person."
"What is your name?"
