In the hall, the emperor was still discussing with his ministers, and someone volunteered to go to the border to help the emperor solve his problems.
At this time, Steve came to the court and all the ministers were silent.
"Your Majesty, I heard that you are worried about the border. I am here to relieve your worries."
The emperor remained calm and asked: "Princess Sidi, what's your plan?"
"Marriage!"
The ministers immediately whispered to each other, and the emperor coughed lightly: "A few years ago, Princess Yuanning married the Kutu tribe and brought peace to the people of both countries. Marriage is indeed a feasible solution."
Princess Sidi heard that the emperor did not want to go to war, so she did not beat around the bush and spoke directly to the point.
"Li Hengan saved Sidi's life that day, and Sidi has a special liking for him."
This statement was earth-shattering, causing an uproar in the court.
Both the Grand Marshal and Lord Ming were shocked and stood up one after another to refute.
"Your Majesty, my son is married. Princess Sidi is a foreigner, so she must not be aware of this."
Lord Ming quickly agreed, "Your Majesty, Lord Taiwei is absolutely right. My daughter married into the Taiwei Mansion at the beginning of the year. The men in the imperial capital are all true to themselves. There must be a more suitable candidate."
Si Di looked around at the crowd, and the ministers nodded one after another. She held her breath and said, "I heard that the eldest son of the Taiwei Mansion and Miss Ming are not in a good relationship. Miss Ming has been living alone in Qingxiang Pavilion, and the two of them are like strangers."
People started whispering in the hall again. They were not deaf or dumb. The gossips of the famous families in the imperial capital would always be known to everyone.
It is no longer a new topic that the eldest son of the Taiwei Mansion is in love with the daughter of a businessman!
The Lord Commander sneered and turned to face her.
"Princess, how could you believe the rumors? My son and Lady Ming are in love and have always been in love. Regardless of that, my son already has a family. How can the princess marry him?"
Steve snorted softly: "Of course I can't marry Li Hengan now."
The emperor looked at Steve and suddenly felt a terrible headache.
As expected of a girl from a frontier barbarian family, the only thing in her mind is whether she wants it or not, not whether she can have it or not!
"My dear ministers, please step back first."
The Emperor dismissed everyone except Sidi. After some questioning and persuasion, it was ineffective, so he summoned the Grand Marshal and Lord Ming to discuss the matter.
When Li Hengan heard the news, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He never expected that Steve would shamelessly ask the emperor for an order.
He flipped the table over and thumped it around the room to vent his anger.
Finally, he sat in the middle of the debris and fell into deep thought.
Princess Yuanning is a victim of politics. As long as the border crisis is not resolved, more victims will be sent to the border.
This time it's him!
Li Hengan punched the ground and a piece of debris pierced his hand, but he felt nothing.
He stood up and strode towards Qingxiang Pavilion.
Every blade of grass and every tree in Qingxiang Pavilion was still the same as usual, and the fish in the pond were leisurely and free, completely unaware that their weather was about to change.
Xiaobai followed Li Hengan, wagging his tail. Li Hengan looked helpless and sad.
Walking into Yue Weiwei's bedroom, he seemed to smell the scent of lilac flowers. He took a deep breath, which made him feel a little more energetic.
He felt the table, the shelves and the wall, and walked step by step to the table.
The figure of Yue Weiwei practicing calligraphy and painting seemed to be right in front of him. He reached out to touch it, but it was empty.
Li Hengan closed his eyes in pain, took a breath of cold air, and his face suddenly turned pale.
He stood firm by holding onto the table and looked sideways at the shelf opposite.
There were a few books, a few brocade boxes, and some antique jades on it.
Li Hengan staggered over and held onto the shelf. The shelf shook a few times and a brocade box fell to the ground.
The lid fell to one side, revealing half of the jade pendant.
Li Hengan saw that it looked so familiar that he couldn't believe his eyes!
Is that his jade pendant?
He gave it to Lin Yuan by the Qingliang Lake, but didn’t Lin Yuan lose it?
