The White-haired Queen

Chapter 148 Asking for a gift

At this moment, the ministers in the court were all stunned, especially those who had just raised objections, their hearts were beating like a drum, and they were uneasy. They never thought that Bei Mingyu had such a secret that he had not revealed, and King Bei Cang's reaction was so intense. For a moment, the whole court fell into a dead silence, and everyone held their breath and did not dare to make a sound easily.

The Ebony Wolf Lord said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing trivial in the royal family. It is not appropriate to form a brother and sister with different surnames so rashly, right?"

Bei Mingyu responded: "Then may I ask Lord Ebony Wolf, what is wrong with this action?"

The Ebony Wolf Lord replied, "She is just an ordinary envoy. She is of low status. It is not wise for her to become a sister to the royal family. This is the first point. The woman dared to dress up as a man, which is a great disrespect to our Northern Cang Kingdom. This is the second point. Now she is even trying to interfere in the internal affairs of Northern Cang by attaching herself to the royal family of Northern Cang. This is simply wishful thinking. This is the third point."

However, before Bei Mingyu could speak, Jiang Yuxuan reminded him, "Lord Ebony Wolf, don't forget who the prince wanted to marry at that time."

When the Ebony Wolf Lord heard this, he began to look at Wen Lanyue carefully. Her black and shiny hair was tied into an exquisite bun, piled high on her head, making her look elegant and generous. A strand of hair by her ear naturally fell on her chest, fluttering gently in the breeze, adding a bit of agility and charm to her.

Her fair skin was as smooth and delicate as white jade, her bright eyes sparkled like stars, her red lips slightly parted to reveal a row of neat and white teeth, she was indeed very pretty. If the prince had not told her in advance that he wanted to marry her as a brother and sister, I would not have thought that this elegant and graceful young man in front of me would actually be a woman.

The Lord of Ebony Wolf recalled that the person the prince mentioned as the proposed marriage partner was Queen Xue Hui, and he couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Could it be that the person in front of him was Queen Xue Hui? But he felt something was wrong. Queen Xue Hui's hair was said to be white, but the hair of the woman in front of him was black and thick, with no trace of white. Could it be that Jiang Yuxuan was helping him secretly? Thinking of this, the Lord of Ebony Wolf said, "The person the prince was planning to marry was the white-haired Queen Xue Hui, and her hair was thick and shiny black, which is obviously inconsistent with the rumors. This kind of impersonation is really the fourth inappropriate thing."

The Ebony Wolf Lord was secretly proud of himself, thinking that it was truly remarkable that he had found so many flaws and hidden dangers.

At this time, Beiming Yu wanted to come out and explain, but Wen Lanyue signaled him to be patient and slowly said: "We gathered here today, the original topic was to discuss mineral resources. However, unknowingly, the topic shifted to the matter of recognizing relatives. Now, please pay attention, your prince Beiming Yu has acknowledged that I am his sister. Since he recognizes me as his sister, I am also happy to accept him as his brother. Next, it depends on your attitude, King Bei Cang. Do you intend to work together with your brother Beiming Yu, or do you have your own thoughts and fall apart?"

King Bei Cang had never expected Wen Lanyue to ask such a direct question, even linking whether he recognized her as a sister of a different surname with the unity between brothers. He could not help but turn his head and look at his brother Bei Mingyu. Bei Mingyu nodded slightly, his expression calm and composed, as if everything was under his control.

King Bei Cang fell into a brief silence, thinking about how to respond. After a while, he finally said, "Since Bei Mingyu is my brother, and you are his sister, then naturally, you are also my sister." His tone was firm, making his position clear.

Wen Lanyue nodded slightly to show her agreement. Her clear and pleasant voice rang out: "Now that King Bei Cang has spoken and recognized me as his sister, do you have any objections to this?"

The ministers looked at each other, and no one answered for a while. At this moment, Jiang Yuxuan was quick-witted and knelt on the ground with a plop, shouting loudly: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! It is a blessing for our country to have such a capable sister! I believe that from now on, the Beicang Kingdom will usher in a more brilliant development!" After speaking, he quickly turned around, faced Wen Lanyue, bowed respectfully, and shouted: "I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess! May the Princess live a thousand years!"

Wen Lanyue raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and stretched out her hand gracefully, making a gesture of supporting.

The other ministers were unwilling to see this, but they had no choice but to kneel down and kowtow, saying in unison: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! May Her Royal Highness the Princess live a thousand years!"

King Bei Cang said, "Get up, and continue with our previous topic - the mineral deposits."

Bei Mingyu said, "Royal brother, wait a minute." Then he turned to Wen Lanyue and said in a rogue manner, "Royal sister, I heard that the first mountain bike from Shangxie Country will arrive in our Beicang Country in a few days. It is a rare item. Is it a gift from you to your royal brother? Hehehe..."

When Wen Lanyue heard this, she suddenly felt angry and wanted to slap this prince brother twice. This guy actually made such an unreasonable request in public, which was simply embarrassing for her! She looked around at the ministers present, and then cast her eyes on King Bei Cang. From their expectant eyes, she could clearly read everyone's desire and expectation for this mountain bike.

If I refuse, it seems a bit unkind; but if I agree, I still have no idea about the rubber material. Oh! It's all Lin Yuanzhi and Mo Jiang's fault. Why did they rush to send such a difficult thing? Wen Lanyue complained in her heart, but facing the situation in front of her, she could only say helplessly: "Yes, that is indeed a gift I specially prepared to present to the emperor."

Bei Mingyu was so happy when he saw Wen Lanyue's frustrated look, and the smile on his face became brighter. He continued, "So, my brother, what kind of gift do you plan to prepare for my sister?"

Hearing that there were gifts to be received, Wen Lanyue's gloomy expression instantly improved a little, but it still seemed a little forced. She tried hard to force a smile, trying to make herself look more natural.

When King Bei Cang saw that Bei Ming Yu had obtained a mountain bike as a gift for him, he was secretly delighted. He asked happily, "My brother, in your opinion, what gift should I give you?"
