Chapter 93 Father-in-law
The atmosphere on the field suddenly became subtle, and everyone's eyes darted between Chu Xingyao and Jun Jiuxiao, secretly speculating in their hearts.
Chu Xingyao's behavior was undoubtedly a crazy act in their eyes, after all, Jun Jiuxiao's majesty and inviolability were well known.
Beneath his cold exterior lies a heart that no one can easily touch, especially when it comes to threats, which he detests.
Xie Wanning sat at the table, her lips bitten until they turned white, but her heart was filled with turbulent emotions.
A flicker of jealousy and disdain flashed in her eyes as she muttered to herself:
"Being able to marry Jun Jiuxiao is already a blessing from her past life. How dare she dream of being the only one favored by him? I guess His Highness the War King will dump her."
She began to conjure up scenes in her mind, as if she could already see Jun Jiuxiao ruthlessly throwing Chu Xingyao away.
In her imagination, Chu Xingyao's helpless and desperate eyes after being abandoned, as well as Jun Jiuxiao's indifferent back, gave her a twisted sense of pleasure.
Just then, Jun Jiuxiao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a doting smile.
He knew Chu Xingyao's temperament well, and at this moment his heart was filled with love and tolerance for her.
After a moment, he stopped smiling and said seriously:
"I, Jun Jiuxiao, courtesy name Yaochen, will love only Chu Xingyao, regardless of whether I have children or not, and no matter what happens in this life."
"If I break this oath, I will not have a good end, just like this luminous pearl."
His voice was firm and deep, each word seemingly spoken with all his might, expressing his loyalty and commitment to this relationship.
As he made his vow, he slowly raised his hand and tightly grasped the luminous pearl in his palm.
It was a priceless treasure, but in his heart, it was nothing compared to Chu Xingyao's every smile and frown.
His fingers clenched tightly, and the luminous pearl made a crisp "crack" sound in his hand before turning into dust and scattering in the wind.
This scene moved everyone present, who witnessed Jun Jiuxiao's deep affection and determination for Chu Xingyao.
Immediately afterwards, Jun Jiuxiao's gaze pierced through the bustling crowd in the banquet hall and finally settled on Chu Huaizhong's face.
His eyes held no arrogance or contempt, but rather were full of respect and sincerity.
His voice wasn't loud, but it was clear enough for everyone present to hear him clearly, and his words revealed a calm and composed demeanor.
"Father-in-law,"
Jun Jiuxiao spoke again, and this form of address made Chu Huaizhong's heart tremble.
"There's no need to go to the War King's mansion to present betrothal gifts; the 'Nine Heavens Jade Pendant' is my betrothal present."
He continued, his tone carrying an undeniable firmness.
A complex emotion welled up in Chu Huaizhong's heart; he hadn't expected Jun Jiuxiao to make such a decision.
He knew that Jun Jiuxiao's decision was not only a promise to Chu Xingyao, but also an honor for the Chu family.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found his voice trembling.
"You may choose an auspicious day, and I will come to your door to marry into your family."
Jun Jiuxiao's voice rang out again, this time with a hint of gentleness.
He knew what marrying into a family meant for a man.
But he was willing to give up those worldly constraints for Chu Xingyao, just so he could spend the rest of his life with her.
The lively atmosphere in the banquet hall suddenly froze after Jun Jiuxiao finished speaking.
The guests present, whether high-ranking officials or literary figures, held their breath, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
The title of the most handsome man in the four kingdoms, the prestige of the God of War of Dongjing Kingdom, and the nobility of the royal uncle—these combined identities make Jun Jiuxiao's status in people's hearts extremely lofty.
Every decision he makes is enough to cause a stir.
Jun Jiuxiao is a legendary figure in Dongjing Kingdom and even among the four kingdoms.
His heroic deeds are sung in every corner, and his handsome face is admired by countless young girls.
However, this very person actually announced in front of everyone that he was willing to marry into the Chu family.
This was undoubtedly a bombshell, shattering everyone's expectations.
In the culture of Dongjing Kingdom, and even the entire Four Kingdoms, it is not common for men to marry into other men's families.
This was an almost unimaginable humiliation, especially for nobles of high status.
However, Jun Jiuxiao broke this traditional concept with a calm and firm attitude.
His decision was not only a deep promise to Chu Xingyao, but also a challenge to traditional ethics and morality.
Chu Xingyao's cheeks were flushed, and the alcohol made her consciousness a little blurry. She leaned against Jun Jiuxiao's chest and felt a sense of security she had never felt before.
Her eyes were half-closed, her long eyelashes trembling gently, as if she might fall into a dream at any moment.
The surrounding noise was irrelevant to her; her world consisted only of Jun Jiuxiao's warm embrace and the steady sound of his heartbeat.
Jun Jiuxiao gently held Chu Xingyao in his arms, his eyes revealing a hint of doting and tenderness.
He knew that Chu Xingyao couldn't hold her liquor, so he paid special attention to her condition at the banquet.
His movements were gentle and careful, as if he were holding a precious piece of porcelain, afraid of causing any damage.
His gaze occasionally swept over Chu Huaizhong and Emperor Changping, and he understood Chu Huaizhong's worries and hesitations.
Chu Huaizhong stood upright in the center of the magnificent hall, his heart churning like a raging storm.
He never imagined that his beloved daughter Yao'er, who had always been regarded as a well-behaved girl, would be like this.
She possessed such charm that she could attract the attention of the mighty and fearsome war god prince, Jun Jiuxiao.
You should know that this prince is notoriously ruthless and cold-blooded, and is known throughout the world for his iron-fisted methods.
Normally, he wouldn't even glance at a woman, let alone get a second look at her. Even if the ladies from noble families tried their best to please him, they might not get the slightest bit of his attention.
However, today, in this solemn and dignified imperial court, Jun Jiuxiao actually addressed him as "father-in-law" in public!
This sudden title not only made Chu Huaizhong feel honored, but also astonished him.
He subconsciously raised his head and happened to meet the eyes of Emperor Changping, who was sitting high on the dragon throne.
The Emperor Changping, who had just been laughing heartily, now had a terrifyingly gloomy face, as if he were about to unleash his thunderous wrath at any moment.
Seeing the Emperor's expression, Chu Huaizhong's heart clenched, and he immediately became tense.
Chu Huaizhong was naturally well aware of Jun Jiuxiao's background.
This prince was the late emperor's most beloved youngest son, and his favor with the emperor was common knowledge in the palace.
Moreover, Emperor Changping also doted on and cared for his younger brother.
If the Emperor of Changping were to actually agree to Jun Jiuxiao marrying into the General's family, he would likely be furious and might even have him beheaded and displayed to the public.
Perhaps even the late emperor, who has already passed away, will appear in his dreams in the middle of the night to confront him and demand an explanation!
By then, he will likely be drowned by the spittle of the entire world.
However, faced with the current situation, Chu Huaizhong really dared not easily refuse Jun Jiuxiao's request to marry into his family.
After all, their precious daughter was so ignorant and audacious that she dared to forcibly kiss this war god prince in front of everyone.
The matter has already caused a great uproar in the city. If we were to openly defy the prince now, the consequences would be unimaginable...
