Chapter 559 “Jun Ruqing (3)”

Shaking hard at being called out, Why is Godfather acting like this? He always worships His Majesty, so why, why is he allowing the King to be trampled upon like so?

“Godfather,” pursing that lip, Jun Ruqing continues to raise her point, “I am only saying this for His Majesty’s sake….”

Perhaps it’s due to her true intent being discovered, but that calm nature immediately showed a glimpse of fleeting panic: “What are you talking about Godfather? How can I….”

“Whether you like Sire or not, it matters not. I ought to remind you this fact, he’s not someone you should dream after. The King and Queen are destined to be a pair, this matter isn’t just the State Teacher’s decision, its also the entire Council’s. The decision is unanimous.”

There are many women out there more capable and more beautiful than you, yet none could get into the King’s eye. You should have some idea of why.
