Chapter 178 Engagement or Forced Palace?

Seeing that everyone was shocked by Zhou Chen's identity, Emperor Xue Ye twitched his lips.

Tonight, the Tiandou royal family will use the power of Ziwei Palace to pretend to be a tiger and cheer up again!

Thinking of this, Xue Ye chuckled, and suddenly said: "I think everyone must be guessing in their hearts about the purpose of the royal family holding this banquet tonight."

Hearing this, everyone present was stunned for a moment, and immediately followed Emperor Xue Ye's words, focusing on Princess Xue Ke who was standing beside the throne.

To be precise, it was on the clothes she was wearing.

The phoenix coronet and Xiapei with red and gold patterns are only worn by betrothed women!
Seeing everyone's guessing eyes, Xue Ye smiled and said, "That's right, today is the engagement day of my only daughter, Princess Xue Ke."

"Hi~"

Many people gasped on the spot!
Although many people had already guessed when they saw the clothes Xue Ke was wearing, but after the emperor personally confirmed the news, everyone was shocked inexplicably!
You must know that the engagement of imperial princesses has strict etiquette procedures, and even needs to be discussed with ministers in court. The process is cumbersome and long, and it is definitely not something that the emperor can decide with one word.

But now, Emperor Xue Ye not only decided on the marriage by himself, but also launched a surprise attack, which really violated the thousand-year-old tradition of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Seeing the startled eyes of the ministers and dignitaries present, Emperor Xue Ye didn't give them time to react, but continued: "As for the princess' betrothed..."

Speaking of this, Xue Ye looked at Zhou Chen at the side, with a cunning flash in her eyes, and said with a light smile: "As you all know, Zhou Chen and my daughter Xue Ke met at Tiandou Royal Academy, and they fell in love at first sight. Privately determined for life, Xue Ke even doesn't think about food and drink every day, and wants to marry Zhou Chen wholeheartedly."

"As a father, I can't make my daughter sad. Therefore, today's dinner is the engagement banquet of Palace Master Zhou and his little daughter Xue Ke!"

As soon as this remark came out, Xue Ke, who was originally a delicate character, immediately blushed and lowered her head, not daring to lift it up.

Meanwhile, Ye Lingling and Duguyan, who were below, were instantly enraged.

Zhu Zhuqing was so angry that she clenched her teeth. If Zhou Chen hadn't stopped her in time, she would have taken out the Shadow Gun and pierced Xue Ye right through with one shot!
Only Yu Tianmeng remained calm and composed.

"What a snowy night, my Ye family is actually robbing my son-in-law! Even if you are the emperor, I will never give up!"

Ye Lingling's mother, Ye Yinzhu, was so angry that her pretty face turned pale at this time, and when she turned around, she wanted to stand up and argue with Xue Ye for her daughter's happiness!

Yu Tianmeng on the side grabbed her, and whispered: "Aunt Ye, be safe and don't be impatient, even if you tear up your face with Emperor Xue Ye this time and destroy this marriage, won't Zhou Chen find other people in the future?" Is there a woman? A man like him is destined to be surrounded by beautiful women."

"I know."

Ye Yinzhu said indignantly: "It's not that I can't tolerate that girl Xue Ke, I just don't want her to become Zhou Chen's official wife and overwhelm my daughter out of thin air! You know, royal princesses have always been official wives when they get married! "

"It's okay, Zhou Chen will solve this problem."

Yu Tianmeng smiled and said, "I believe he will consider our feelings."

After finishing speaking, Yu Tianmeng looked at Zhou Chen on the high platform with a playful smile in his eyes.

Calling you a fool, let's sit on the wax this time...

at the same time.

Everyone present also recovered from the shock!
The Heaven Dou imperial family, this is to use the method of marriage to form an alliance with Ziwei Palace!
With the strength of Ziwei Palace, as long as Ziwei Palace is willing to help with all its strength, no, as long as Ziwei Palace is willing to give [-]% of its strength, the Tiandou imperial family will regain its glory, and it is just around the corner!

Hearing this great news, nobles or soul masters loyal to the Tiandou imperial family, such as Ge Long, Meng Shenji and other important officials of the three major education committees, could not restrain their joy in their hearts.

And those who have evil intentions have ugly faces.

For example, the king of the Barak Kingdom, Kundera.

At this time, his face was extremely gloomy, and the crystal wine glass in his hand was pinched with cracks!

As an ambitious king, Kundera's greatest wish in this life is to stop being a vassal of the Heaven Dou Empire and make the Barak Kingdom a truly independent kingdom!

To put it bluntly, he wanted to rebel against the Heaven Dou Empire.

For this goal, Kundera did not hesitate to give up a lot of benefits, and cooperated with Wuhundian, only kneeling and licking that platinum bishop Salas.

Originally, he thought that with the help of Wuhundian, it would be easy to get rid of the control of the Tiandou imperial family.Unexpectedly, a Ziwei Palace unexpectedly appeared on the way!

Kundera is very clear about the strength of Ziwei Palace, if the Tiandou imperial family gets the help of the world's number one sect, then all his plans may be in vain!
On the high platform, Salas, who was sitting on an equal footing with Xue Ye, had a completely frozen face.

At this moment, his whole heart was trembling.

As the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall, Salas knew very well that the final plan of the Spirit Hall was to destroy the three sects and the two empires, and unify the Douluo Continent.

But now, the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School have formed an alliance, and this time they want to marry Ziwei Palace, once these three major forces unite, the Spirit Hall will be in big trouble!
The shock in Salas' eyes gradually turned into a cold light.

It's a pity that he can't say anything about this marriage, and he can't stop it.

Thinking of this, Salas looked at Zhou Chen at the side, but seeing the expression on Zhou Chen's face, he was equally shocked.

This made Salas feel strange and lucky.

Could it be that Zhou Chen didn't know about the marriage?

Of course Zhou Chen didn't know.

Although Zhou Chen had guessed earlier, when Xue Ye really announced that Xue Ke was going to get engaged to him, he still felt a little caught off guard.

By doing this, Xue Ye was obviously forcing the palace, forcing him to marry that girl Xue Ke!

Announcing the marriage in public, if Zhou Chen disagreed, he would immediately offend the Tiandou imperial family to the death, without any room for maneuver.

And if he agrees, it will fall into Xue Ye's arms.

Although Zhou Chen didn't mind getting engaged to the princess, he didn't like this way of forcing the palace very much.

Even if he eats soft rice, he will eat soft rice hard!
Today, he wants the princess, but he may not give the face of the Tiandou royal family!

Seeing Zhou Chen frowning with displeasure, Emperor Xue Ye immediately felt a little nervous.

Regarding this act of taking advantage of the general situation and setting up traps to force Zhou Chen to submit, in fact, Xue Ye, who has always been scheming, was not completely sure.

Xue Ye, who was restless in her heart, glanced at Zhou Chen, and couldn't help asking immediately: "Master Zhou, do you agree to be engaged to Xue Ke?"
