As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly exploded, in fact, the ministers had already heard of Xiao Cui's identity, but they estimated the face of the royal family and did not dare to say it in public.

This is exactly the effect that the prince wants, he sneered and looked at Xiao Zhang, he liked to see Xiao Zhang in trouble, because for so many years, he had always lived in the shadow of Xiao Zhang, miserable.

However, the emperor didn't seem to care much about this matter, maybe he had encountered too many troubles today, and he was numb, he just said casually: "Xiao Zhang, explain." ”

Xiao Zhang was not in a hurry, bowed slightly to the emperor, and said: "Xiao Cui is not from the Jade Tower, her real identity is the righteous sister of the queen of the Houyi Kingdom, and she was ordered by the queen to sneak into Xuanyuan City to help me quell the rebellion of Xuanyuan Gate." Therefore, Xiaocui is an absolutely innocent woman. ”

The emperor nodded, and was about to speak, but he heard the prince say first: "Your Majesty, Queen Houyi has no sincerity, since this Xiaocui is not a member of her royal family, she is a lowly wild seed, and such a wild seed is vainly trying to marry the royal family of my Dayan Empire, this is simply a great insult to my dynasty!"

Xiao Zhang smiled faintly and said: "Queen Houyi doesn't intend to marry our dynasty, she just wants to express her sincerity to our dynasty and is willing to help our dynasty quell the Xuanyuanmen rebellion, and Xiao Cui is just a messenger sent by the queen." But coincidentally, Xiaocui met the thirteen princes, and the two fell in love, so they naturally got along. What's wrong with that?"

The crown prince snorted coldly and said, "The thirteen princes are of true dragon blood, how can they be with lowly people?"

Xiao Zhang said: "In the Houyi Kingdom, the people have long been no longer hierarchical, everyone is equal, the queen's bloodline is not noble, and the people's bloodline is not lowly. Therefore, the so-called lowly people of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince do not know where they came from. ”

The prince looked at Xiao Zhang coldly and asked, "You seem to know a lot about the Houyi clan." ”

"Of course. Xiao Zhang did not shy away from it, "During the establishment of the Yi Kingdom back then, I was present throughout the whole process. Presumably, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to be there, right?"

This sentence immediately made the prince furious, at that time, the prince's Luoshen tribe was defeated by the Zongbu tribe where Xiao Zhang was sitting, and in the final battle, the prince was also defeated by Xiao Zhang's men, which was one of the eternal wounds in the prince's heart.

"Xiao Zhang, you are presumptuous!" the prince roared angrily, and the entire hall trembled, but then the prince was speechless, after all, in the Houyi clan's plan was what he secretly said, if he said it publicly, it would not only be his own shame, but also the emperor's punishment.

Xiao Zhang naturally knew this, so he took the opportunity to rectify the prince more ruthlessly, so he continued: "Your Majesty, the minister was in the Houyi tribe back then, and witnessed the whole process of the unification of the Houyi tribe by the Zongbu tribe......

"Xiao Zhang, don't spew blood!" the prince suddenly became anxious and shouted urgently.

Xiao Zhang was stunned for a moment, and asked the prince rhetorically: "Who did I spray blood? If I accidentally sprayed His Royal Highness the Prince, please forgive me." ”

"Shut up with me!" the emperor frowned and said, "Xiao Zhang returned to the topic just now, you said that Xiao Cui was an envoy sent by Queen Houyi, did you bring a letter from the Houyi Kingdom?"

Xiao Zhang smiled slightly and said, "This is naturally there." Queen Houyi asked Xiaocui to bring a token and asked her to hand it over to His Majesty in person. ”

The emperor immediately said, "Xuan Xiaocui." ”

The guards outside the hall immediately passed on the emperor's will layer by layer, but in a moment, Xiao Cui came to the Qi Tian Palace.

"Xiaocui, a woman from the Houyi clan, meets His Majesty the Emperor of the Dayan Empire. Xiao Cui slowly knelt down, prostrate on the ground, and threw herself to the ground, expressing her supreme respect for the emperor.

The emperor looked at Xiao Cui quietly, it was the appearance of a typical Houyi woman, beautiful but not charming, pure but not simple, a smile gradually appeared on the emperor's face, it was a satisfied smile, and it was an affirmation of the eyes of the thirteen princes.

"Flatten. The Emperor said with a smile.

Xiao Cui got up slowly, slim and generous, anyone who saw it would like it.

The prince stared at Xiao Cui fiercely, with murderous intent in his eyes, because Xiao Cui was a member of the Zongbu tribe, he seemed to have returned to the past and saw the enemy opposite him.

The emperor smiled and asked, "Your name is Xiaocui?"

Xiao Cui said, "Exactly." ”

"Are you the sister-in-law of Queen Houyi?" the Emperor asked again.

Cui: "Exactly. ”

The emperor nodded, and then asked, "Are you willing to join the imperial family of my Great Yan Empire and marry my thirteen princes?"

Xiao Cui's face suddenly turned red, and she said shyly and timidly: "The little girl is naturally willing, but it's just ......"

"Just what?" the Emperor asked at once.

Xiao Cui pondered for a moment and said, "The little woman represents Queen Houyi, and there is another request. ”

The Emperor laughed: "If you have an idea, just say it, I will do my best to satisfy you." ”

Xiao Cui took a deep breath, spit out slowly, sorted out her thoughts, and then said: "The little girl is the righteous sister of Queen Houyi, if she marries into the Dayan royal family, it will be convenient for Your Majesty to become a father-daughter relationship." As the queen of Houyi, who is the sister of the little girl, the position seems to be a little awkward, so ......"

"So what?"

Xiao Cui took a deep breath again, and finally made up her mind and said, "The queen asks, can you be considered a stepfather?"

After saying this, Xiao Cui's face turned slightly pale, she was under tremendous pressure at the moment, because he didn't know how the emperor would react. If the emperor still regarded the Houyi clan as a barbarian clan, then what she said just now would undoubtedly be a moth to a flame.

The atmosphere in the main hall seemed to freeze, and everyone was waiting for the emperor's reaction.

The emperor was expressionless, and looked up at the sky outside the palace gate slightly, as if he was thinking, and I don't know how long it took, a smile finally appeared on the emperor's face: "You said you brought a token of Queen Houyi?"

Xiao Cui was shocked, and then remembered that there was still this matter, so he hurriedly took out one thing from the storage bag, which was a small bow, emerald green, only the size of a palm, small and exquisite, but only a bow and no arrows, it was the soul shooting bow.

The eunuch Wei Zhong immediately walked over and handed the small bow to the emperor, who took it in his hand and carefully observed it for a long time, and finally said with a smile: "I agree to your queen's request to accept her as a righteous daughter." ”

Xiao Cui only felt a buzz in her mind, and relaxed from the extreme tension, which made her feel powerless, so she knelt on the ground and said prostrately: "The little woman represents Queen Houyi, thank Your Majesty Longen!"
