He thought Ye Shixue loved him. However, due to the woman's shyness, she did not dare to reveal it.

When they were in Luoyang, she had caressed the zither. He played the flute, and the zither hummed and hummed. He was truly free and unrestrained.

Ever since Luo Yang came back, his Dongjun Kingdom had sunk into a state of deep abyss. He endured all the public opinion and pressure, and stayed up all night to take care of things, just wanting to return to her side as soon as possible.

After he ascended the throne, he had once been under pressure from the Empress Dowager and the Minister to leave the throne to her, and she was the only one who had walked the rest of his life with him.

However, when he saw the scene in the rain, he felt a sense of shame that he had never felt before.

That was why he had ordered her to be his concubine. He wanted to imprison this woman who had betrayed his feelings by his side for the rest of his life and spend the rest of his life to punish her.

Unexpectedly, he heard the news of the two eloping.

How could he tolerate this kind of thing happening? He angrily placed a wanted poster, but he didn't expect that even after three years, he still hadn't found any traces of the two.

After many years, these matters were gradually forgotten by him, or perhaps it could be said that he had to be cold and emotionless, and not want to think about them again.

It wasn't until fifteen years later when Bai Zhixi once again appeared at his own banquet that he began to reminisce.

”Reporting to Your Majesty, Bai Xuanyi isn't the son of an old subject in the first place. By chance, this old subject's good-for-nothing son, Bai Xuanyi, saved the Southern Frontier Crown Prince, but he himself died accidentally. Later on, after the Emperor of Southern Frontier investigated everywhere and found out that he was the son of an old official, he came to the Eastern County to bring back the unfilial son's ashes. The Emperor of Southern Frontier had wanted to give this old subject a surprise, but he used a disguise technique to transform himself into Xuan Yi. At this moment, the emperor suddenly came to the manor and ordered Xuan Yi to follow you south to Luoyang. I believe that the Emperor is very clear about the rest of this matter. ”

After Old General Bai finished speaking, the hall once again fell into silence, only the sound of everyone's breathing could be heard.

Everything started from a misunderstanding, fate was indeed a wondrous thing!

”Haha!” Brilliant! It's no wonder that I was able to capture her heart. I don't find it strange at all. ”

Dong Aoqing laughed out loud towards the sky, the sound of his laughter resonating throughout the hall for a long time, and inside the hall, he felt a bit of heartache.

At least, that was the way Bai Zhixi saw it!

It was incredible that her life was legendary.

”Your Majesty, this is only one side of Elder Bai's story. It is simply impossible to prove that the Bai Xuanyi back then was the one who was disguised as the Southern Frontier Emperor. It can't be that Old Bai is taking this opportunity to clear us of our suspicion, right? ”

The cold voice of Uncle Situ rang out in the hall once more, this time in an overbearing manner.

When the seated Dong Aoqing heard his words, his originally cold gaze suddenly became sharper. He stared at Old General Bai with sparkling eyes, as if he was waiting for Old General Bai to continue speaking.

”It's reasonable for Uncle Situ to have doubts. This is the personal letter of the Emperor of Southern Frontier, please have a look, Your Majesty! ”

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Old General Bai took out a shiny yellow cloth from his bosom and handed it over to the eunuchs.

The instant the eunuch received the embroidered cloth, a corner of the cloth was revealed, and a distinct ”border” character impressively appeared in front of everyone.

All of the ministers in the hall started whispering to each other. They had already guessed that this might really be an edict from the emperor of the nation of Southern Frontier, and Bai Zhixi was the princess whose Southern Frontier had been left outside.

”Looks like we have truly wronged Old General Bai.”

Dong Aoqing said lazily as he handed the embroidered cloth to the eunuch.

”Your Majesty, since the truth has been revealed, this crown prince will bring my sister back to the Southern Frontier on the very next day. When he returned to royal father, he thanked the for raising him. ”Farewell!”

Seeing that the truth had been revealed, Nangong Xuan anxiously took a step forward, bowed to Dong Aoqing, and said anxiously.

After obtaining Dong Aoqing's tacit approval, Nangong Xuan grabbed Bai Zhixi's hand and urgently walked out of the hall.

It was as if he wanted to return home and was in a hurry to meet his family. It was as if he was being pursued by an evil ghost, as if he was afraid that if he was one step too late, he would be killed by the evil ghost.

”Wait a minute!”

However, before they could even take a few steps, they were stopped by Dong Aoqing's call, and had no choice but to turn around and stop.

”Crown Prince Southern Frontier, I think this king remembers that the princess of Southern Frontier is about to win too! It is also at the age of marriage. Might I know if Princess Southern Frontier wishes to become the crown prince of our country? ”

Dong Aoqing suddenly stood up, and walked down the stairs, towards the two of them.

His words were like a thunderclap that exploded in Bai Zhixi's heart, causing him to be unable to calm down for a long time. Of course, every official present was the same.

Shangguan Jingyan's father, Grand Commandant Shangguan's body trembled slightly upon hearing his words. If not for the official beside him supporting him, he would have fallen to the ground long ago.

What does the Emperor mean by this? He actually wanted Bai Zhixi to become his concubine?

So, where to Shangguan Jingyan?

Bai Zhixi was currently a princess of the Southern Frontier, so he naturally couldn't be a secondary concubine.
