1219 Saint Glaze Palace (2/2)
The faces of the men in the hall had turned sullen.
[If it is about the princess, it is reasonable for the king and the queen to be anxious like that!]
”But… She has the Nirvana Fortune. As long as she stays away from human affection, nothing could possibly distract her mind! That is weird. Could it be…” The old man was lost in thoughts.
Another old man who was on the right side suddenly said in a deep voice, ”Prime Minister Wen, you are not having that thought, are you? That is not what you should have in mind.”
Prime Minister Wen raised his one meter long white eyebrows and said blandly, ”General Wu, what I should have in mind is not your decision to make. Even if I shouldn't think of that, should you?”
General Wu coldly said, ”The princess was engaged with my son. The king made a promise. It certainly is something I should consider about.”
Prime Minister Wen sneered, ”Nonsense! When the king and I became sworn brothers, we made a promise. Our sons will be brothers, daughters will be sisters, and son and daughter will be husband and wife… General Wu, I think you should stop that stupid idea. Don't you believe the story you made up…”
General Wu's face turned purple because of anger. He said, ”What you said, it happened centuries ago! How could you still talk about something that should be rotten in the history!”
Prime Minister Wen blandly said, ”Well, the promise you said, isn't it something rotten in the history? Do you think it is going to happen tomorrow or something?”
The two of them were having a conflict. It seemed things were going more and more dangerous. The others hurriedly stepped ahead to talk them off. After a while, they both humphed and sat back on their own seats.
The others all felt that it was quite embarrassing.
The princess wasn't back from the lower realm yet, and the two young men weren't in the court. The two old men actually nearly started a fight because of something among the three youngsters…
However, the king was the person to be blamed. The king always wanted a daughter. Thousands of years earlier before he had one, he always made the same promises to his people…
”Look, if I have a daughter, I will let her marry your child…”
”Brother, if I have a daughter…”
”Brother, your kid is so smart and lovely. I like him. If I have a daughter…”
People knew that he didn't have a daughter at that time, so nobody took it seriously… How many people did the king make the same promise to?
When the king finally had a daughter, people started to take it seriously.
Prime Minister Wen and General Wu were not the only two. However, the others didn't dare to act against these two.
What was troubling these men now was the same question. [What is happening to our little princess? Why are the king and the queen so hurried?]
…
On the other side, in a place where there was full of colorful flames.
The king and the queen rushed over and barged into the place. When the two of them walked into that place, the colorful flames automatically moved aside and made a path for them.
It was a palace that was made by glazed tiles. It was shining with splendid and marvelous lights.
The two of them reached the entrance, but they didn't stop. They directly rushed into the palace.
