Chapter 382: Meeting with the Emperor (3) (2/2)

If he was not wrong, Lin Yun's twin was someone who had high Dragon Power inside his body. As the Emperor, he had a treasure that could help him to see through the dragon power inside someone.

But…

The dragon power within Lin Xiao was only slightly better than most princes. It couldn't be compared to many others.

'Was it decreasing during the time he's away from the Capital City?'

The Emperor naturally didn't know the reason, and he had no intention of pestering Lin Xiao about this. ”I have heard about you from your older brother, now that I look at you, you don't look bad at all.”

Lin Xiao had a blank expression.

Ehm, what should he said?

Prince Lin Yan naturally saw Lin Xiao's dilemma and couldn't help but send another voice transmission. The other officials naturally saw him helping the young brat but they turned blind eyes to it. Not a single one of them didn't know of Lin Xiao's previously poor background.

”Thank you for your kind words, Your Majesty,” Lin Xiao replied politely.

The Emperor looked at Lin Xiao up and down. He then glanced at Princess Lan Yi Hua for a moment but his gaze didn't linger long. It was impolite to look at a woman's body, especially if that woman belonged to someone else.

Princess Lan Yi Hua naturally noticed the Emperor's gaze but he didn't speak to her. Her lips curled up slightly to form a mocking smile as she could guess that even if it was a matter related to her, he would not bother to speak to her.

He tapped the armrest while his eyes didn't leave Lin Xiao in the slightest bit. ”Do you have any request, Prince Lin Xiao.”

”Replying to Your Majesty, this prince is satisfied with the arrangement.” Lin Xiao's words were in accordance to the tradition. However, his heart was actually complaining. Why in the world did he have to use so many polite words, ah?

It was so…

Ugh.

Lin Hu merely snorted and laughed inside Lin Xiao's head. He was having fun watching Lin Xiao was forced to restrain his speech.

The Emperor nodded. ”Now that you're here. Will you try to open Dragon Pavilion Hall?”

Here we go.

Almost everyone wanted to look at Lin Xiao direction in order to hear his answer. It was a question that many people had long wanted to know. If Lin Xiao could open the door, it meant that there would be another person who could possibly get the throne.

The battle for the throne would be fiercer.

Not that the Emperor would let them run amok, though. The position that they would be given if they won the battle would be the crown prince.

They had to wait until his death first.

And he had no intention of dying fast.

Lin Xiao raised his head to look at the Emperor before he gave his answer.
