Sister, look at him!

Chapter 338 Rebirth and Awakening: The Enemy of the Heroine in This Life 5

He Qingwan and King Xuan left the table one after another. Xie Lingyi didn't know what they were going to do, but she always felt a little uneasy.

On the day He Qingwan fell into the lake, King Xuan looked at He Qingwan with a very strange look. She also had a brother, and her brother would never look at her in that way.

Moreover, throughout the dynasties of Dayu, most princes and nobles married their cousins ​​as their principal wives...

He Lingyi bit her lower lip lightly, not daring to think about it any further.

After being upset for a while, she looked up again, only to find that He Qingwan and King Xuan had returned at some point. They were sitting very steadily, as if they had never left.

The banquet was drawing to a close, the music of the orchestra had gradually died down, and just as the excitement was about to come to an end, a young man in blue suddenly walked to the center of the hall and knelt down.

The young man in blue was Xie Lingyun.

The emperor frowned and asked, "What is the meaning of this?"

He liked Xie Lingyun very much. Although he was the eldest son of the Left Prime Minister, he was a staunch royalist. As the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he had argued with his biological father, the Left Prime Minister, many times in the court in order to support him.

For this reason, he called Xie Lingyun by his name affectionately.

Xie Lingyun said in a clear voice: "Your Majesty, I have a beloved girl, and I beg Your Majesty to grant me marriage."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

Everyone knows that Xie Buzhi has no desires and is just like a monk.

It was precisely because he had no desires that the emperor valued him so much, but now he had actually moved out a beloved person without saying a word.

King Xuan's face quickly turned gloomy. The porcelain cup in his hand was broken by his force. The fragments pierced his hands and blood dripped onto the table.

The emperor looked down at Prince Xuan's appearance at this moment, and also had some guesses about the beloved woman that Xie Lingyun mentioned.

His smile faded a little, and there was a little more subtle calculation in his eyes, "Oh? I wonder which noble lady can win Bu Yi's favor."

Xie Lingyun bowed and said in a sonorous voice, "Miss He, good evening."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room burst into an uproar.

How could it be possible for the son of the left prime minister, an important official in the court, to marry a woman from a military family? Not to mention the terrible relationship between their two families, even the emperor would never allow such a thing.

They all looked up, waiting for the emperor's reply.

The emperor did not refuse directly, but turned around and asked He Qingwan, "Qingwan, let me ask you, are you willing to marry me?"

He Qingwan stood up directly on the spot. She smiled sweetly, and her lively eyes seemed to be filled with stars. She said, "Zhao Zhao is willing!"

The deputy general was closest to King Xuan, and he could already hear King Xuan's uncontrollable breathing, and even faintly wanted to stand up. He hurriedly pulled King Xuan back, and although he was worried, he could only calm King Xuan down, "Your Highness, you can't..."

The Emperor clearly did not want Prince Xuan to inherit the throne. The He family now holds military power. If they really become close to Prince Xuan, how can the Emperor tolerate them? !

King Xuan knew it was wrong, but he just...

He walked dejectedly through the crowd to look at He Qingwan.

His heartless cousin has begun to act coquettishly towards His Majesty regardless of the occasion.

Xie Lingyi was confused. What happened? Why did her elder brother...

Why did He Qingwan...

Sitting on the high dragon throne, the emperor clapped his hands and laughed, "Well, since Qingwan and Buyi are in love with each other, I will help them achieve their goal."

His eyebrows danced with joy, and his eyes were filled with undisguised fondness as he looked at He Qingwan, "You, you are spoiled by nature. I will make you a princess and give you a princess's mansion."

After these words were spoken, several old ministers who had not understood at first also figured out what was going on.

He Qing was later conferred the title of a princess of a different surname and lived in the princess's mansion, so she had little to do with the He family. Xie Lingyun's original wife became Princess Shang.

Once he marries the princess, he will be the prince consort and will have no major relationship with the Xie family.

Obviously, King Xuan also heard the hidden meaning of the emperor's words, and his original unhappy mood turned into worry. He looked at He Qingwan, who was still smiling foolishly, "Okay, okay, Zhao Zhao will listen to your uncle."

The emperor was smiling, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

Just one day after the banquet, two imperial edicts were delivered to the He family, one naming her Princess Zhaoyang and the other arranging a marriage between her and Xie Lingyun.

The wedding date was an auspicious day chosen by the people of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory, which happened to be the Qiqiao Festival on the seventh day of the seventh month, a very good day.

It was the beginning of June, and the wedding date was only a month away. But the Imperial Astronomical Observatory said that after the seventh day of the seventh month, the next auspicious day would be the next year.

With He Qingwan's half-hearted consent, the date was set.

The princess mansion gifted by the emperor was once the mansion of Princess Yongchang. Princess Yongchang was the youngest daughter of the late emperor, the emperor's sister, and Pingyang's biological mother.

The capital was filled with joy everywhere, except He Qingwan, the person involved, who couldn't smile.

In the imperial garden of the palace, three vicious sisters sat together in the pavilion, all of them looking listless.

"What should I do, Zhaozhao?" Changning felt extremely guilty. "I thought I could discipline Xie Lingyi after you married her, but I didn't expect you guys would move out."

Wang Wanyue also blamed herself very much, "I am also wrong, this idea was my own."

He Qingwan was eating grapes, her smile was still sweet, but her eyes were dark, "It doesn't matter, I really like Brother Xie, he is very talented and has great martial arts skills."

As she spoke, she covered her mouth and giggled, "The most important thing is that Brother Xie is good-looking."

The pavilion was built by the lake, against a rockery. At this moment, behind the rockery, Xie Lingyun was standing face to face with King Xuan.

When he first heard the conversation between Wang Wanyue and Changning, King Xuan provoked Xie Lingyun, "I heard it. Zhao Zhao married you for a purpose."

Before Xie Lingyun had time to feel heartbroken, he heard He Qingwan's confession again, and he immediately felt confident. He looked at King Xuan, whose face was ashen, and smiled like a spring breeze, "I am willing to accept it."

Before he finished laughing, he heard He Qingwan drop another bombshell.

The girl's voice was unfocused, as if she was regretting, "Actually, I like my cousin very much, but he doesn't seem to like me. He likes Xie Lingyi instead."

Then, pity turned into disgust, "He is a person without taste. I feel annoyed when I say one more word to him now."

King Xuan was somewhat at a loss, his 1.80-meter-tall body stiffened like the rockery beside him. He wanted to defend himself, but he couldn't, after all, this was the fact.

His mood fluctuated drastically in an instant.

He was very excited because He Qingwan admitted that he liked him.

Daluo, He Qingwan was tired of him.

How many ups and downs can one have in life? King Xuan experienced one at this moment. He didn't even have the strength to show off to Xie Lingyun. He turned away in despair, stumbling twice as he left.

Xie Lingyun looked at King Xuan's back with a complicated look in his eyes. It was true that King Xuan had lost, but he did not feel that he had won.
