Where was the sadness in her eyes?
His eyes flickered, and his pitch-black pupils darted around the room. He then turned to General Xiahou, who was standing guard beside the bed, and asked, ”Father, did you succeed?”
General Xiahou looked at the person lying on the bed getting up and pressed her down with disapproval. ”Success, this wound …” he said with a smile. It's very similar. ”
Then, Jingjing lay down on the ground and blinked at General Xiahou, ”Does everyone believe?”
General Xiahou nodded and said, ”Of course!”
Saying that, he leaned towards Jingjing in an even more mysterious manner, ”Not a single person suspects anything, and soon... Then we'll know who your husband is! ”
Jing who was lying on the bed, her eyes lit up as she smiled and said, ”Thank you, father.”
General Xiahou smiled. ”As long as you don't let my son down, that's enough.”
The light in his eyes seemed to be sincere for Xiahou Ye's sake.
This kind of thinking had already surpassed the love of countless fathers for their daughters.
In his previous life, Jingjing and Bingying were both orphans, adopted by his master.
When had she ever experienced such fatherly love?
He looked at the man with a full beard in front of him.
A warm current seemed to flow through Jing Jing's heart. She was even a little jealous of Xiahou Yesi for having such a good father.
When General Xiahou saw Jingjing staring at him like that, he thought something was wrong. He asked nervously, ”Yessie, what's wrong?”
Jingjing smiled and said, ”Father, it's time for you to enter the palace.”
General Xiahou came to a realization. ”That's right.”
He turned around and said to Jingjing, ”The things in your room, what's important, they have all been put away, one is not damaged, after the limelight has passed, I will take them out and give them to you. Your main bedroom, I'm afraid it will have to be repaired soon, so you should suffer grievance for a period of time, your aunt said that she wants you to move to her yard, I'm afraid that at that time, if there are any flaws, I'll reject them on your behalf.”
Jing Jing was truly touched. She looked at General Xiahou and said, ”Many thanks, Father.”
”I'm entering the palace!” General Xiahou laughed in a simple and honest manner.
Within the palace.
Inside the study of the King of the Western Regions, it didn't seem serious at all. Transparent white crystal glass hung everywhere.
This crystal was extremely precious. It was unknown if it really had some effect or if it was just psychological. When one walked in, it gave off a refreshing feeling, making one feel extremely comfortable.
However, the atmosphere between the two of them was not cool at all.
”My king, my daughter has suffered a heavy injury. If she were to be betrothed to any other prince, I'm afraid it would make people despise her!”
General Xiahou's loud voice rang throughout the city, sounding somewhat haggard and haggard.
”This subject cannot bear to have his daughter suffer, and cannot bear to have any other princes suffer either.” This subject cannot bear to have his daughter suffer, and cannot bear to have any other princes suffer.
The King of the Western Regions was deep in thought and did not answer.
General Xiahou saw that he didn't say anything, so he sighed and continued, ”This daughter of mine is this subject's youngest daughter. She has never had a mother since she was young, but I held her at the very tip of her heart. I cannot bear her suffering. ”
The Western Region King's expression changed slightly. Looking at the person below whom he had always doted on and hated, he actually felt a trace of regret.
He sighed at General Xiahou and said, ”General Xiahou, could it be that you are the superficial person who is the son of this duke?”
General Xiahou's expression changed slightly. ”But, your Majesty …” ”Your servant … Your servant truly cannot bear the suffering of my daughter …”
He no longer discussed the matter of the marriage. In other words, there was still room for discussion.
The Western Region King sighed and said, ”I admit that if it was me, I would have no foundation in emotions. If I had to take a woman with a scar on her face, I would also …”
After pondering for a while, he said, ”How about this, I don't want to pressure my sons so they can choose on their own. If it's voluntary, then without any other factors, we will marry each other. If no one is willing …”
The King of the Western Regions pondered for a moment before speaking to General Xiahou, ”If no one is willing, then treat this as the shallow end of this king's son. This marriage … ”Then, let's give up …”
”...” ”Daughter, do you agree?” The Western Region King looked at General Xiahou and asked.
General Xiahou was silent for a moment, but before he could finish, he heard someone knock on the door …
”Didn't I already say that I won't meet anyone?” The King of the Western Regions asked the people outside in a low voice.
At this time, the sky was already dark, who would still be so bold as to ask for an audience? There was no response from outside, only the sound of a chair being put down.
The Western Region King and General Xiahou frowned as if they had already guessed who had arrived.
General Xiahou stepped forward and pushed open the door.
Pushing the door open, he met a pair of cold and detached eyes.
Before he could say anything, the master of those strange pupils spoke up, ”Royal father, your son is willing to marry Xiahou Yeshi. Fourth Miss, please allow me to marry you!”
Hearing these words, General Xiahou started and looked puzzled. The person sitting on the chair said, ”Ninth, Ninth Prince, you … what is this?”
”Li Yue, why are you here?” The King of the Western Regions took a step forward and looked at his outstanding son. A hint of regret flashed across his face.
”Father, please grant this son's request!” The Ninth Prince who was called Li Yue said again.
