Chapter 154: Honesty

Xia Xue'er did not panic, but after lighting a few more candles, she put down the flint in her hand for lighting candles with satisfaction, and walked to the center of the hall without hurrying and knelt down, and bowed again. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The emperor's eyes followed her figure from beginning to end, watching her every move, and only after she knelt down again did he open the golden mouth.

"You are bold enough to walk around my hall!"

What is true non-anger and self-authority, this is!

Xia Xue'er kowtowed again, then straightened up and looked directly into the emperor's eyes, and said: "The emperor is mighty, the people are not intentionally offended, but this hall is empty, and there is no light, the people have been afraid of the black that they can't see their fingers since they were young, so they dared to light the candles." ”

Didn't he just want to see if she was a timid bale of straw? Anyway, she is also the deputy valley master who can control the largest gang in the world, how can such a little trick fool her eyes!

Xia Xue'er smiled at the corner of her mouth, and looked at the person on the dragon chair without half timidity, her eyes were full of openness, as if she was not facing an emperor who could control life and death, but an old man next door!

The Emperor asked, "What if I don't like to light these dazzling candles?" ”

"Light symbolizes hope, and no one really doesn't like it", Xia Xue'er paused slightly after speaking, and then added: "Of course, His Majesty the Emperor is not an ordinary person, if you don't like it, then the people's girl will put it out again." ”

The emperor smiled when he heard this, and this answer was expected. Fu asked again, "Aren't you afraid of the dark?" ”

Xia Xue'er sneered in her heart, since ancient times, the emperor's mandate is the mandate of heaven, and the mandate of heaven cannot be violated, where is the time when the people have ideas? Isn't it a slap in the face when His Majesty the Emperor asks this?

"Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, you can be whatever you want, where can others say no? The Minnu is just a weak woman who is blessed by the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven must obey the orders! ”

As soon as she said this, the emperor sitting on the top of the hall frowned slightly, and there was a touch of fierceness in his eyes when he looked at Xia Xue'er, and his tone was also full of injustice, "Listening to your tone, how dissatisfied you seem to be?" ”

When Xia Xue'er heard this, she hurriedly buckled her head, His Majesty the Emperor thought that she was afraid and asked for mercy, but she didn't expect that she would reply again: "The people don't dare, everyone in the world is afraid of the emperor, the people are just stating a fact!" ”

At this point, he had to frown, this kid, really don't know what words can please people, what words will only make people's hearts suffocate after listening to them? It's so bold!

"Fear of everyone?" The emperor first smiled, then slapped the table, deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I think there is one who is not afraid!" ”

He looked at Xia Xue'er's eyes narrowed slightly, his hands were on the table, he half-stood up, and leaned forward, looked at her for a long time before asking, "You don't want to be Princess Qi?" ”

Xia Xue'er was furious by his appearance, to be honest, now she is a little afraid, after all, she is not facing others, but such a majestic emperor!

But he still didn't hesitate, and spit out two words directly: "I don't want to." ”

His Majesty the Emperor did not expect her to answer so bluntly, and stood up in surprise for a moment, stretched out his hands and asked, "Why?" ”

Xia Xue'er was startled by him standing up suddenly, but she also stabilized herself, took a deep breath secretly, and then replied unhurriedly: "Women in the world have a sincere heart, and they are willing to be one-hearted, and it is every woman's wish that the white head is not separated, and the people are also women, and naturally it is no exception." ”

Although Xia Xue'er was kneeling, she also straightened her back, and everyone's demeanor was not lost at all! This was something that the emperor appreciated.

"So you have a sweetheart?"

Xia Xue'er smiled helplessly, her tone was a little sad, but more pale and weak.

"There is no such thing, it doesn't make any sense now."

The emperor was also puzzled by her sudden change, Xia Xue'er was like a fighting rooster, fearless, with her head held high and full of confidence; But now there is a little bit of the tenderness of the daughter's family in it, and the courage to fight is completely gone, only endless sorrow remains!

Why did he think of a sentence: Mourning is greater than heart death?

I can't help but feel a little pity for her.

Yu wandered around the table twice, simply walked down the steps, approached her step by step, and finally stood only three days away from her, bent over, and asked her little face, "Are you beating mandarin ducks with a strange stick?" ”

Xia Xue'er didn't expect him to come down, let alone come directly to him to ask, just looking at the eyes full of wisdom and prestige, she couldn't help but start to break out in a cold sweat, and her straight body, which was originally kneeling, couldn't help but lean back.

Swallowing his saliva, he stubbornly returned: "If the people say yes, will you take back the holy decree?" ”

"No", the emperor still looked at her, his eyes didn't even blink, his eyes were so deep that no one could see what was hidden inside, but he couldn't help but want to surrender.

"The words of the Son of Heaven are like water that cannot be recovered!"

He added.

Xia Xue'er raised her eyebrows, and then said: "The folk girl knows, so she doesn't have any hope." ”

"I have to say, you are very honest and bold." His Majesty the Emperor had a look of appreciation on his face, and now he finally understood why the sixth child had written several times to ask for marriage, and why he would rather give up leading the army in the southeast to earn military merits for nothing, and ask to marry Xia Xue'er!

It's really a likable girl.

Xia Xue'er smiled slightly, is this a compliment?

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven, and no lie can deceive your eyes, so it's better to tell the truth, isn't it better to be honest?"

"Since you are so honest, then I will tell you the truth", the emperor straightened up, paced behind Xia Xue'er, and said, "You are the daughter-in-law that I have seen with my own eyes, and this will never change!" ”

I have long heard that Xia Qingxuan, the Marquis of Anguo, has a daughter who has great courage, and when I see it today, I only see that she dares to push open the door and come in by herself, and she is not flustered when she falls into the dark, and she can even light a candle lamp with only a little faint moonlight, and she can answer fluently and be neither humble nor arrogant in the face of his inquiry, although the words are not good to listen to, but she can grasp every sentence well, not only expressing her true feelings but also not committing the capital crime of rebellion and contempt for the king's authority, so it can be seen that the rumors from the outside world are true, she is not a brave and unscrupulous person! An Guohou is really a goddaughter.

He is very satisfied with such a person being his daughter-in-law! (To be continued.) )
