Quickly wear a child, the villain is more favored, who wants the male protagonist?

"A vile woman with a cunning and deceitful heart."

"It's bad luck to have those eyes on your face..."

Xuanyuan Yu held the reins with one hand to steady the horse, looked down at Xia Xizhi from above, and uttered these words softly.

Xia Xizhi originally wanted to stand there so that he could see his appearance clearly, but after hearing this, Xia Xizhi was speechless!

She would rather not recognize such a brother!

He rolled his eyes, "Hehe."

"Yes, yes, you are right. It is not unlucky for you to have those eyes on your face, because you don't use them, and they are as good as new.

You're truly powerful, judging me as despicable and scheming based on just one side of my story. It's a shame you don't go to work at the government office. The government doesn't need evidence to make a judgment, just your word."

Xuanyuan Yu paused, his face not looking very good. This was the first time someone had scolded him like this, scolding him without using any dirty words...

"You! You're so eloquent..."

At this time, Yue Ren, dressed as a servant, came hurriedly.

"Miss Xia, you're late. Madam asked me to pick you up. Are you in trouble?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Xuanyuan Yu inadvertently, and Xuanyuan Yu was stunned.

Isn’t Yue Ren the Queen Mother’s personal bodyguard?

Why is he here...

Could it be that the Queen Mother came to the Central Plains secretly?

And you invite this scheming woman to be your guest?

Xuanyuan Qing had never seen Yue Ren before and didn't know him, so she just glanced at him casually.

"It's just a little trouble, nothing, let's go." Xia Xizhi rolled his eyes at Xuanyuan Yu again and left with Yue Ren.

Looking at Xuanyuan Yu's expression, she knew that Xuanyuan Yu recognized Yue Ren, and he probably wouldn't stop her if she left.

"Stop! Who told you to leave?" Hongluan raised her eyebrows and scolded.

"Hongluan, let her go."

Hongluan was stunned by Xuanyuan Yu's words. She turned to look at Xuanyuan Qing. Xuanyuan Qing nodded impatiently. She was in a hurry to attend the palace banquet to ask the Emperor of Central Plains to arrange a marriage for her with Huo Jin. She had no time to talk to that vixen here.

Anyway, there will be plenty of time to teach her a lesson later.

Hongluan reluctantly gave way.

Xuanyuan Yu looked at Yue Ren and Xia Xizhi's backs, her mind was in a mess. The way she rolled her eyes just now was so similar to her mother's.

......

In order to show respect for the envoys from Dayong, all ministers of the third rank and above were allowed to attend the palace banquet with their families.

After the emperor and empress entered, the banquet began.

As soon as Xuanyuan Qing entered the room, her eyes were fixed on Huo Jin, and she didn't hide her burning gaze.

The queen sitting on the throne saw this scene and her expression changed slightly...

The young ladies from the aristocratic families performed ordinary talents one by one, while Xuanyuan Qing danced with a sword. After the performance, the onlookers applauded and complimented her.

"As expected of the Princess of Dayong, she is truly different from ordinary women."

"Your Highness the Princess has the bearing of a man, and this sword dance is very skillful."

After a group of people praised her, a minister with a mustache glanced at the queen, stood up and said,

"Your Highness is a woman who is as capable as any man, and Your Highness the Crown Prince is benevolent and wise. If Princess Xuanyuan could marry His Highness the Crown Prince, it would be a wonderful story."

The Queen was very satisfied with what he said and nodded with a smile. Just as she was about to continue, Xuanyuan Qing's face changed and she immediately refuted loudly.

"no!"

"Your Majesty, Queen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kind and virtuous, but I like General Huo Jin. I hope Your Majesty will grant us marriage!"

The emperor and empress sitting in the first seats suddenly looked very ugly.

Especially the Queen, the Prince is her own son, and she is embarrassed to be rejected like this.

How is her son inferior to this princess who has no manners whatsoever and has no idea of ​​etiquette? If she were not Princess Dayong, she would not be worthy of being her son's concubine with such a character!

"Oh, there's one more thing I'll mention. My guard commander has taken a liking to Xia Xizhi, a concubine of the Xia family. I hope Your Majesty will grant her to my guard commander. It would be a blessing for a concubine to become my commander's legal wife..."

Xuanyuan Qing was scheming and deliberately concealed the fact that Xia Xizhi had become Huo Jin's concubine. She was also afraid that everyone would think she was ridiculous.

The ministers and their families around were all dumbfounded. The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone looked at each other and whispered.

"Just now I was saying that this princess has the demeanor of a mother of the country, why is she now becoming someone's concubine? Is she mentally ill..."

"That's normal. General Huo is so handsome, so it's normal for her to think so. But saying that directly in the hall is like slapping General Huo's wife in the face. This behavior is too arrogant and rude."

"That's right. She also wants the Xia family's concubine's daughter to marry her commander. Even though she's a concubine's daughter, she's from the family of the Minister of Works. She's not some lowly person. How can she ask for it like this in the palace?"

"Xia Xizhi... Oh right, isn't she the young lady who saved the little boy at the competition venue?"

"In that case, could it be that Miss Xia stole the princess's limelight? She deliberately wanted to torture her..."

"My God, this princess appears to be heroic and straightforward, but it turns out she's actually quite evil at heart."

Xia Chan and Wang Yulan just sat there without saying a word.

.......

Xuanyuan Yu saw that the old emperor and the queen's expressions were getting worse and worse, so he quickly stood up to speak for Xuanyuan Qing.

"My sister is straightforward, please forgive me, Your Majesty and the Queen. This is the case..."

In addition to apologizing on Xuanyuan Qing's behalf and expressing her thoughts in a tactful way, she also expressed that Dayong was willing to be on good terms with the Central Plains. Dayong's national strength was much stronger than that of the Central Plains, and Xuanyuan Yu did not need to threaten them deliberately, and the emperor and empress would also be wary of them.

The emperor looked unhappy, but still smiled and said,

"It's naturally good that Princess Xuanyuan is willing to marry into our Central Plains, but..."

The emperor glanced at the queen casually, and the queen immediately understood and continued his words, smiling and saying,

"Princess Xuanyuan's suggestion of marrying the concubine's daughter to her commander is easy to do, but the princess is of noble status, and being a concubine to General Huo would be detrimental to her status. If the princess's father, the emperor, and her mother, the queen, knew about it, they would probably blame us for arranging the marriage."

"No, my father, the emperor, and my mother have always doted on me. The Empress can just grant me the marriage. I will take care of my own affairs by myself!"

Xuanyuan Qing's words made the queen's face even worse. The words seemed very heroic, but she felt that the princess was rude and did not take her words seriously at all.

Suddenly noticing Huo Jin's gloomy face, the Queen's eyes flickered. It seemed that Huo Jin might not want to marry her. She curled her lips slightly and changed her target.

"Princess Xuanyuan, this marriage is a matter between two people. If both of you are willing, we will naturally be happy to see it happen. But General Huo..."

The Queen looked at Huo Jin,

"What does General Huo think?"

The emperor also glanced at Huo Jin, his eyes deep and meaningful.

Huo Jin stood up and said bluntly, "I am already married and have no intention of taking a concubine. Please find another good husband for your Highness. I am not worthy of you, Princess."

These words instantly brightened the emperor and empress's expressions.

Xuanyuan Qing refused to give in.

"I told you I don't mind!"

"Besides, Xia Jingshu wants to enter the Eastern Palace, and since you two are getting divorced, I am not considered a co-wife."
