After all, she didn't belong to him, and might never belong to him.
”Yue Chanjuan, you just wait for this king. Sooner or later, this king will make you my woman!”
He made a vow in his heart, but he was not in a hurry. The road to the Huns was very long, and he had a long time to capture her heart.
After a while, he stood up, gritted his teeth, and walked towards the banquet. As the person responsible for this ceremony, he couldn't be absent.
He did not like women who were too weak. Yue Chanjuan had given him too many surprises. Beneath her timid appearance, there was actually a female leopard hidden. This attracted even more attention from him.
Yue Chanjuan noticed that Tuoba Fei's handsome face still turned slightly green when he returned to the banquet. She couldn't help but laugh inside.
”Where did you go?” You've been gone so long? ”
Although Sulu Lianshan was asking Tuoba Fei, his eyes never left Yue Chan. Thus, he never noticed that Tuoba Fei's expression was off.
”I'm going to relieve myself. Because I'm not familiar with the road, I took the wrong path.”
”Just now, I asked the Emperor for his hand in marriage, why did you stop me?”
The gaze she shot towards Yue Chanjuan was fervent to the point of burning as she stared unblinkingly at that indescribably tender dimple. She was unable to bear the itch in her heart. Earlier, he had indeed wanted to ask Emperor Sheng for his hand in marriage, asking him to betroth Yue Chan to him. However, he was stopped by Tuoba Fei.
He felt a bit unhappy in his heart. However, Tuoba Fei was the leader of this trip. He alone had to obey his orders.
He could not afford to offend Tuoba Fei. After all, he was only the fifth son, and he had four brothers above him. Without Tuoba Fei's support, it would be impossible to obtain a spot on his own.
This time, he invited Tuoba Fei to join him in order to become friends with Tuoba Fei on the journey. In the future, Tuoba Fei would support him.
”Your Highness, the Emperor has already agreed to the marriage. There will be no problem of going back on his words. However, from the looks of it, he didn't seem to have made up his mind as to who to order out and who to marry. At this time, it was not wise to be too hasty. It was likely that the emperor would issue a decree in a few days. Today, he brought Princess Wuyou to attend the banquet.
”What's wrong with that? The two princesses of the Da Kang Kingdom, Princess Chang Le, is the eldest. She will marry my father and become the concubine.” Princess Wuyou is young, so you can be my wife. ”
The corner of Tuoba Fei's mouth twitched. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Sulu Lianshan. The marriage of the two princesses of Great Karma was settled by this reckless person.
He did not know what to say. The corners of his mouth were twitching, not only because of the pain in his vital organs, but also because he was speechless at Solu Lianshan's arbitrary actions. The emperor had yet to issue the decree of marriage. It was obvious that he was hesitating in his heart as he chose the appropriate person to do so.
Princess Wuyou wouldn't be able to escape, but the other one wouldn't be Princess Changle.
He was well aware that the biological mother of Emperor Sheng had died early. Thus, in the struggle to seize the direct line of descent, this normally indifferent and indifferent Ninth Prince had always been excluded from everyone's line of sight. After all, there wasn't a favoured mufei in the harem. It was a bit too difficult to fight for the position of Crown Prince.
Therefore, the Golden Emperor, who had been dependent on his sister since he was a child, would never be willing to marry Princess Changle off to the Huns.
If so, the other woman who had left the family would definitely be chosen from amongst the ministers and other women of the royal family. A few days ago, in a fit of rage, Emperor Sheng had decreed that the royal family and the daughter of a minister were not allowed to discuss marriage. This was to prevent those people from marrying their daughter in a hurry so she wouldn't leave the city.
Tuoba Fei really wanted to tell Sulu Lianshan that Princess Changle would not be involved in marriage, so Princess Wuyou could only be a member of the Qin family and could not be betrothed to him.
However, after thinking for a moment, he didn't say anything. After all, at this moment, the emperor had yet to issue an imperial edict and he didn't want to attack the mountain. Otherwise, this person might have done something impolite and rash here.
”Your majesty, Solu Lianshan, we offer you our martial arts and dancing swords as a form of entertainment. We hope that Your Majesty will grant us our blessing.”
Sure enough, just as Tuoba Fei thought of this, Sulu Lianshan had already stood up and bowed to Emperor Sheng, encouraging him to dance with a saber.
