Chapter 241: Covenant

The Imperial Palace of the Eastern Empire is located in the rear of the Imperial Hall, and the overall style is a gorgeous villa with a modern style, covering an area of 5,000 square meters. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this time, in the hall of the Imperial Palace, three figures sat on the sofa, and many fruits and snacks were placed on the coffee table.

The three figures are the current Emperor of the East, Dongfang Hongqing, his wife Ning Qingyi, and their daughter Dongfang Yanhuan.

Ning Qingyi sat beside Yan Huan, her pale cyan eyes were full of pampering, she gently stroked Yan Huan's pink hair, and wished that her daughter would always stay by her side.

Opposite Dongfang Yanhuan sat a rather elegant man, the man's hair was black, but in the black was mixed with a few wisps of red, a pair of purple eyes flashed from time to time A touch of fine light, he was wearing a set of home clothes, set off his straight waist, just at first glance, he would not think that he was the emperor of the Eastern Empire, but would think that he was a literati.

Since Dongfang Yanhuan came home, Dongfang Hongqing's eyes have hardly left Yanhuan's body, and for his little daughter, the family almost treats her as a pearl in the palm of her hand, and she can't be hurt in the slightest.

At this time, Dongfang Hongqing watched the conversation between their mother and daughter so quietly, with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, how good it would be if time could stop here.

But thinking of their decision, Dongfang Hongqing's eyes were a little dim, his purple eyes were full of struggle, and he looked a little painful, he hated it so much, why did he inherit the throne in the first place but did not fight for power, the current ministers of the empire, more than half of them are his younger brother's henchmen, and he has almost no right to speak, and those elders, since they are on the side of their younger brother, why did they let themselves inherit the throne in the first place? Do you treat yourself as a puppet?

Dongfang Yanhuan couldn't help but ask when he saw his father's expression: "Dad, what's wrong with you, your face doesn't look very good." ”

Dongfang Hongqing's face instantly returned to normal, and he shook his head: "It's okay, it's just some trivial things." ”

Dongfang Yanhuan's brows furrowed slightly, she felt her mother's palm tighten slightly, and a trace of worry flashed in her pale cyan eyes, Dongfang Yanhuan said in a deep voice: "Dad, Mom, do you have something to hide from me?"

Dongfang Hongqing shook his head quickly: "No, how could it be..."

With a "rub", Dongfang Yanhuan stood up, stared at his father, and said in a firm tone: "I have grown up, there are some things I want to know, especially about me!"

Dongfang Hongqing laughed awkwardly: "It's just some state affairs..."

"You're lying!" Dongfang Yanhuan interrupted his father's words, squinted his eyes and said, "Dad, you are not suitable for lying, your hands will unconsciously rub the corners of your clothes when you lie!"

Dongfang Hongqing rubbed his fingers on the corners of his clothes for a moment, he looked at Ning Qingyi with a distressed gaze, Ning Qingyi sighed: "Yanhuan is right, she has grown up, and she is qualified to know some things." ”

"Qingyi, you..." Dongfang Hongqing met Ning Qingyi's gaze, and finally sighed: "Yanhuan, this matter is indeed related to you, and I even plan to announce it at your birthday dinner." ”

Dongfang Yanhuan's heart suddenly had a bad premonition, looking at her parents' guilty faces, she said with some excitement: "It's difficult, you..."

"Yanhuan, don't get so excited. Ning Qingyi's heart ached, and she wanted to shake Yanhuan's little hand, but Dongfang Yanhuan shook it off and asked sharply: "Sister is like this, and now I am like this, do you really plan to compromise like this?"

Dongfang Hongqing's face was even more guilty, at the beginning, Yanhuan's sister had to agree to that marriage because of the persecution of his younger brother's lineage, and now, the same thing is repeated in Yanhuan's body, his father can't even protect his daughter, and the most cowardly emperor in history is himself.

"Yanhuan, I'm sorry..." Dongfang Hongqing can only say this, as an emperor, he is not qualified, and the most father, he is even more unqualified!

"I'm sorry?" Dongfang Yanhuan laughed self-deprecatingly: "Is it useful to say sorry? You have already done something wrong, can you get it back with a word of sorry?" It turns out that the lofty ambition that I set up in front of me at the beginning is so vulnerable in the face of reality, and it will be shattered when touched. ”

"I..." Dongfang Hongqing opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

Ning Qingyi said softly: "Yanhuan, don't blame your father, he's also very helpless, this marriage can't be resisted at all, because the other party's background is too strong, too strong, Ge Lao, your uncle's lineage, all agreed, there is no room for negotiation!"

Although Dongfang Yanhuan was angry in her heart, her sanity was still there, and she glanced at her parents with some doubts: "Isn't the other party the prince of the empire?"

"Imperial Prince?" Dongfang Hongqing was a little disdainful: "Even if the first heir of the Haonan Empire is the marriage object, he can force the elder of the pavilion, and your uncle's lineage agrees?"

"Who is that?" Dongfang Yanhuan felt that his heart suddenly became so scared...

"The other party is very strong, I can only say that in any respect, it is a hundred times stronger than our Eastern Empire, or even a thousand times stronger!" Dongfang Hongqing's tone was full of unwillingness, and a pair of purple eyes stared at Dongfang Yanhuan: "The nine great empires are united, and they are just a big ant in front of them." ”

"What...・How is it possible?" Dongfang Yanhuan's body trembled, his eyes lost concentration, the other party's strength was so terrifying, did he still have a choice?

She muttered to herself, "Really, there's no room for anything?"

Looking at his daughter's appearance, how could Dongfang Hongqing's heart not hurt? He only hated that he had no strength, and he couldn't even protect his daughter.

Ning Qingyi sighed: "No, Yanhuan, I know you like the one called the firmament, but he can't protect you at all, he is too weak, even if he can grow up, it will not work at all, the other party is really too strong, so strong that he can't raise the mind to resist a little." ”

Hearing the word firmament, Dongfang Yanhuan's eyes lit up, but then it dimmed, to be able to let his mother say such a thing, even if the strength of the firmament reached the throne, it would not help.

Seeing the flash of light in her daughter's eyes, Ning Qingyi sighed in her heart: "It seems that my daughter is deeply rooted in love for that firmament..."

Dongfang Hongqing looked at his daughter's pale face, and he lowered his head in shame: "Daughter, it's all useless to have a father, as the Emperor Fengzun, but he can't even fully control the empire." ”

Dongfang Yanhuan shook his head: "I don't blame you, in fact, all this was done by my uncle, right?"

Dongfang Hongqing nodded, and shook his head again: "No, it's not like this, it's the marriage proposed by the other party, your uncle agreed to it in order to control the empire and to tie up with the other party, and so is the elder of the pavilion..."

"Hehe..." Dongfang Yanhuan's eyes were distracted, and he smiled a little miserably: "I didn't expect that in the end, my ending would be exactly the same as my sister, how to win the triple championship of Huiwu, it turned out that it was all a lie..."

"In the face of great interests, they will abandon any faith. Ning Qingyi said softly, took Dongfang Yanhuan into her arms, gently stroked her back, and in her mother's arms, Dongfang Yanhuan could no longer control two lines of tears.

Dongfang Hongqing looked at his daughter's appearance, and his heart was also sad, his two daughters were going to become their bargaining chips?

Thinking like this in his heart, Dongfang Hongqing's eyes gradually became firm, he looked at his youngest and most beloved daughter, and said in a deep voice: "Yanhuan, this time, I will not back down again, I am your father, how can I let them use my daughter to ascend to the sky in one step!"

Dongfang Hongqing's body, the blazing Yuan Force was tumbling, and his purple eyes were unprecedentedly firm, who was he? He was the emperor of the Eastern Empire! He was the Fengzun Emperor of the Human Race! Finally, he was Dongfang Yanhuan's father, the father who held up a piece of heaven for her!

Ning Qingyi looked at her husband in shock, and said in shock: "Hong Qing, have you really decided? There are two people on the elder side of the pavilion who are on his side. ”

Dongfang Yanhuan also stared at her father in distraction, and after a while, she shook her head: "Dad, you don't have to do so much for me, just take it as your life." ”

Dongfang Hongqing looked at Dongfang Yanhuan and said coldly: "You don't care about the firmament, can you forget him?"

"I..." Dongfang Yanhuan lowered her head dejectedly, can she do it? Obviously not, the scenes of acquaintance with the firmament gradually appeared in her mind, the misunderstanding when she first met, the curiosity when she met for the second time, he saved his strength in the Heilu block, the proud strength in the monthly ranking battle, the indomitable momentum in the [Double Pride Martial Arts], the indifferent, inhuman strength of the land of Texas...

Scenes flashed in her mind, the handsome face of the firmament became bigger and bigger, and suddenly she remembered her three-year appointment with the firmament, and her heart made a decision at this moment.

She raised her head and looked at her father, and said in a firm tone: "Dad, give me three years, and if everything can't be done in three years, I will agree to their request!"

Dongfang Hongqing's eyes flashed, he didn't expect Yanhuan to say such a thing, why did it take three years?

"You've decided?" Dongfang Hongqing asked in a deep voice.

"That's right, three years, three years is enough. ”

"Okay!" Dongfang Hongqing snorted, looked at Yan Huan and slowly spoke: "In three years, even if you fight for my life, I will fight for you, if the decision you make after three years is to be with the firmament, then I will send you away at all costs and stay away from here!"

"Dad..." Dongfang Yanhuan's eyes moistened again, Ning Qingyi touched Dongfang Yanhuan's hair, and said softly: "Yanhuan, we are your parents, this will always be your home, we have missed it once, and we won't make a mistake a second time!"

Dongfang Hongqing nodded: "I once said that I will not make the same mistake a second time, I once said that I will not lose my trust in the words that protect you, I will hold up a piece of heaven for you!"

"At this birthday party, I won't announce your marriage, everything will be suppressed, rely on me!"

"Dad!" Dongfang Yanhuan threw himself into Dongfang Hongqing's arms, but the tears couldn't stop flowing, and Dongfang Hongqing had a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth: "I, I won't be wrong again, and I won't retreat..."

Leaving the villa, Dongfang Yanhuan's whole mood had calmed down, she looked into the distance, and said in a low voice: "Firmament, although I don't know how big my position is in your heart, but in my heart, where there is you, it is a sunny day!"
