Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists

"The answer to this question should be integrity. People with integrity are not subdued by power or tempted by greed. Gentlemen establish themselves in the world with integrity, while villains often lose their integrity due to selfish desires. Although it is invisible, it can demonstrate a person's character and integrity at critical moments."

Mo Xuanche's gaze fell on Bai Yue's slightly lazy figure, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he spoke slowly with a bit of playfulness.

"Your Highness the Crown Princess may appear to be asking a riddle, but in reality, she is reminding certain people not to let personal grudges blind their eyes and make them forget the weight of the nation on their shoulders. I wonder if this explanation of mine will satisfy the Crown Princess."

"Oh, your Majesty's answer is absolutely piercing and touching. That's the answer. I am truly in awe of your Majesty's wisdom!"

Bai Yue winked at Mo Xuanche and bowed in an exaggerated manner.

Yun Qingchi's expression changed like a palette, because the person these two people were talking about who was blinded by personal grudges was actually himself.

At this delicate moment, a burst of crisp applause came from Mo Xuanche's side, followed by Empress Dowager Lin's gentle yet majestic smile.

"Haha, today's state banquet is truly fascinating. I've long heard that Crown Princess Chenyun is exceptionally talented, and meeting her today reveals she's even more remarkable than I'd heard. I'm truly delighted!"

Then her eyes fell gently on Bai Yue, and her voice was filled with endless love and warmth.

"I heard that the Crown Princess bravely rescued the Emperor a few days ago, but Your Majesty was busy with state affairs and was unable to commend her. So today, I am willing to repay this favor on Your Majesty's behalf. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask!"

"Really? Then I..."

As soon as Bai Yue's words came out, she was quickly interrupted by Mo Xuanche, who turned to Empress Dowager Lin and spoke respectfully.

"My dear mother, you have truly misunderstood me. I have already made up my mind about the Crown Princess's commendation!"

"I have decided to waive all compensation due to Wenqu State this year as a token of my deepest gratitude to the Crown Princess for sacrificing her life to save me. Mother, please enjoy today's banquet. You don't need to worry about this matter any more!"

The Wenqu Kingdom delegation was instantly excited after hearing Mo Xuanche's words, and Yun Qingchi bowed deeply to Mo Xuanche, his eyes flashing with disbelief.

"Is what your Majesty said true?"

"You have no joke!"

Mo Xuanche looked directly at Yun Qingchi, his words revealing the majesty of an emperor.

"So, on behalf of the entire Wenqu Kingdom, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your pardon!"

Yun Qingchi was excited and bowed again to express his gratitude to Mo Xuanche.

Just when everyone thought the matter was over, the Queen Mother suddenly chuckled and continued the topic.

"Your Majesty's generosity is unmatched, but I have already spoken, so how can I easily go back on my word? Crown Princess Chenyun, if you have any wishes, please tell me. I will do my best to fulfill them and satisfy you!"

"Then, Queen Mother, my only wish is to return to Wenqu Kingdom with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I wonder if the Queen Mother can fulfill this wish..."

When Bai Yue heard what Empress Dowager Lin said, she immediately bowed and saluted.

Before she finished speaking, Mo Yingyun stood up and said with reluctance in his voice.

"Queen Mother, please have mercy on Xiaoyue's homesickness. Although I am reluctant to part with this newly adopted granddaughter, since she misses home, let her go!"

"Empress Dowager, I also ask you to grant the Crown Princess's wish to return home. I suffered from a stubborn headache, but fortunately, the Crown Princess's miraculous healing power has cured me, and I am now completely healthy. Therefore, even without Crown Prince Chenyun and the Crown Princess as hostages, as long as I am here, I will protect the peace of Wulie Kingdom to the death and not allow any villains to take advantage of me!"

After Mo Yingyun finished speaking, Chu Lingyun, with a white veil wrapped around her head, also stood up resolutely and saluted solemnly to the empress dowager.

"Empress Dowager, since both the old prince and Marquis Chu have said so, Shixian also feels that allowing Crown Prince Chenyun and His Highness the Crown Princess to return to Wenqu Kingdom is indeed the best strategy. After all, rumors are spreading among the people that the Crown Princess is a fairy from the Nine Heavens, and that Crown Prince Chenyun, who has been able to obtain such an immortal fate, must be the true dragon emperor destined by heaven..."

After saying that, Lin Shixian's eyes subtly swept towards Yun Qingchi. When the other party heard the words "True Dragon Emperor", his expression changed instantly, like dark clouds covering the sun, gloomy and unpredictable.

"Haha, since several pillars of the nation have begged you so earnestly, if Your Majesty and I don't oblige, wouldn't we be considered heartless and insensitive?"

Empress Dowager Lin's gaze shifted to Mo Xuanche, her teasing evident in her words.

But Mo Xuanche, who has always been decisive as iron, was rarely lost in thought at this moment.

His eyes were fixed on Bai Yue, as if he was waiting for her to change her mind and give up the idea of ​​returning to Wenqu Kingdom.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty? Is there something you can't explain that's why you're so hesitant?"

A hint of gloating had quietly blossomed in Empress Dowager Lin's smile, and after hearing what she said, Mo Xuanche suddenly curled up the corners of his mouth into a meaningful smile, and spoke leisurely to Empress Dowager Lin.

"My Queen Mother really loves to joke. Crown Princess Chenyun is my savior. If I really want them to return, I will carefully choose an auspicious day made in heaven to show my respect..."

"Haha, since Your Majesty has such good intentions, I will step in and take over. Three days from now, I will have Crown Prince Chenyun and the envoys from Wenqu Kingdom go on their journey together. That day will definitely be a rare auspicious day!"

Before Mo Xuanche could finish his words, the Queen Mother interrupted him.

"Thank you, Her Majesty, for your grace, and thank you, Your Majesty, for your permission!"

Bai Yue and Yun Qingchen smiled at each other, then bowed deeply to the two people on the platform. Their joy was beyond words, as if the whole world was brightening because of this decision.

"Mother, I am a little tired. Let's call off this feast."

Mo Xuanche frowned slightly, and a barely perceptible sadness flashed in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, the Queen Mother immediately put on a motherly demeanor and spoke softly.

"Your Majesty, you have worked hard for the country, which is a blessing to all the people. However, your health is also the foundation of our country, Wu Lie, so you must cherish it. After returning to the palace, you may find a consort who understands you. Perhaps she can relieve your Majesty's worries and ease the troubles of your body."

"Ah…"

Mo Xuanche's expression darkened and he did not flatter Empress Dowager Lin as he did in the past, while Xingzhu immediately took over the conversation cleverly and announced loudly.

"Your Majesty, please return to the palace. The banquet is over!"

His voice echoed throughout the palace, finally bringing this eventful banquet to an end.

"Congratulations, my Royal Brother! Congratulations, my Royal Brother! Who could have imagined that three days later, I would be able to accompany you and your Royal Sister-in-law and return to Wenqu Kingdom together!"

After Mo Xuanche and Queen Mother Lin left, Yun Qingchi walked up to Bai Yue and Yun Qingchen and said with a half-smile on his face.
