step by step

Chapter 275
Hearing that Jiang Yan changed the subject like this, Zhuo Shicheng was also shocked enough. Originally, he was still regretting that Zhuo Tianxin's gaffe was heard by the envoy, and he was thinking about how to remedy it so that he would not be blamed. The other party changed his tone, which caught him off guard.

But since the other party has spoken, he naturally wants to go down the slope.

He hurriedly stood up, cupped his hands and said: "The envoy's words are reasonable, since we are a family, naturally there is no need to be restrained."

He turned to Zhuo Tianxin again, and asked with a smile, "Tianxin, do you think so?"

Zhuo Tianxin lowered his head, full of reluctance, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he could only softly answer: "Yes."

Although she was displeased, she still didn't dare to defy Zhuo Shicheng in public and slapped him in the face, so she couldn't continue to entangle in this matter, so she could only let it go temporarily.

Looking at Jiang Yan's back, her heart was filled with anger, but she could only suppress it forcefully.As long as the marriage has not been settled, there is still room for change.

Zhuo Shicheng nodded in satisfaction, then turned to the envoy, and said: "It's the king who is incapable of disciplining him. He actually let the dog girl slip up, and the envoy misunderstood him. He still looks at Haihan. Tianxin already knew his mistake. This matter is not as good as Just expose it!"

"Okay!" Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Jiang Yan responded readily, so he stopped talking and raised his glass to drink.

For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was a bit weird, most of the people kept waiting and watching, and no one planned to speak out rashly.

The Zhuo family got a big deal, but they don't know who the man is.

Everyone in the outer palace looked like they were watching a play, only one woman in the banquet was pale, but there was a lot of voices, no one noticed her abnormality.

"Miss Ye is not feeling well?" A voice from the next seat asked.

Ye Zhaoyan raised his head, and saw a gentle and dignified face, it was Mrs. Lu, the wife of Taichang Siqing.

Her eyes flicked past the worry on the other person's face, and then she was relieved, and forced a smile: "Maybe it's too much to drink."

"The wine in Zhuo Wang's Mansion is made from a unique secret recipe, and it is really rare." Lu smiled, and gently comforted him: "As Miss Ye, it is just a matter of asking for some back to drink through the friendship between the two families. Things that move your mouth, why bother to be greedy for a while, the future will last forever."

Ye Zhaoyan choked for breath, subconsciously smiled and nodded, but his heart ached.

It's a long time to come, I don't know if they will still come to Japan.

On the other side, Kunyu saw that the matter had calmed down, so she looked at Zhuo Yibai with a smile on her face, and saw that the young man was as tall and straight as a orchid and jade tree, forming a beautiful scenery by itself.

Looking at the beautiful young man in front of her, she suddenly felt her heart beat a little faster. This young man, no matter his appearance or conduct, was in line with what she wanted in her heart. If it wasn't for the fact that the other party was not noble enough, she would not have spent so much time dealing with the messenger. After weighing the pros and cons, they were able to exchange marriages and shirk the original appointment of Zhuo Ergong.

However, there are still many troubles to be resolved before the matter is finalized.

Her pair of beautiful eyes were tightly locked with Zhuo Yibai, as if she had a strong desire to explore.

Even though he saw that his face was indifferent just now, he did not show the slightest rebuttal, which made Kunyu feel a little more confident.

Just when she was in a good mood, the boy's voice came to her ears, "So, even if the princess is a twisted melon, she wants it?"

The voice was not too loud, just enough for her and the Zhuo brothers to hear.

Naturally, the maid beside Kunyu did not miss out.

The expression on Kun Yu's face froze instantly, and the young man's eyes were as calm as water, but there was a deep glint hidden in them, not like impulsive nonsense.She just felt a surge of hot blood rushing to her mind, making her dizzy.

Zhuo Mingxuan also had a look of astonishment on his face. Although he knew that his younger brother who was always kind to others was not as simple as he appeared on the surface, he never expected that he would be so unsympathetic to Princess Nanyue.

Kunyu is the most beloved daughter of His Majesty Nanyue. If they interfere with the alliance with Nanyue, the envoys of Nanyue may immediately turn against each other.At that time, the relationship between Nanyue Kingdom and Tianlu is bound to cool down, which is not good news for Emperor Donglin.

"Yibai, be careful." Zhuo Mingxuan frowned, and hurriedly said: "Is there any misunderstanding? Could it be that you resented what the princess did in Fenglin before, so you teased the princess with your words?"

His confidant once said that Zhuo Yibai was offended by Kunyu's intimacy in Fenglin, and he didn't pay much attention to the openness of the people in South Vietnam.

"Princess, do you remember what I said in Fenglin?" Zhuo Yibai ignored him, but looked directly at Kunyu: "Zhuo has no chance to inherit the title of the palace, so it should not be used as a bond for the marriage and alliance between the two countries. I hope the princess can Get that."

His tone was calm and peaceful, even revealing a trace of imperceptible alienation.

"What do you mean? Is this palace not good enough for you?" Kunyu's voice trembled slightly, "Or do you think that your Zhuo family's power doesn't need Nanyue?"

Her voice was very low when she spoke, but this question was so loud that it seemed a bit threatening.

Zhuo Mingxuan frowned, and was about to say a few words of persuasion, but was stopped by Zhuo Yibai, "I don't think there is any distinction between a princess being worthy or not."

He glanced at her indifferently, "I never promised to marry the princess, how can I say whether I deserve it or not?"

Seeing Zhuo Mingxuan beside him, he didn't say anything about his private refusal.

"Then you..." Kunyu bit her lip, "I don't understand why you refused to marry me."

This young man knows better than anyone that she is the princess of South Vietnam, or it should be said that she is the heart of the South Vietnam monarch.

Facing him, she had already confessed all her value.

"I don't want to be the son-in-law of Nanyue. The princess has a noble status, and the person she will marry should naturally be a nobleman. I'm just the second son who has no chance of being on the throne. How dare I stand up to the princess?"

Kunyu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt a little funny, "What a clumsy excuse!"

She is a smart woman, she can see through Zhuo Yibai's thoughts at a glance.

"Princess Bingxue is smart."

Hearing this, Kunyu suddenly picked up the wine glass, "Are you humiliating me?"

She held the wine glass tightly in her hand, as if she might break it at any moment, "If you really have no intentions for me, why didn't you reject my maple leaf fan? Don't you understand what the color of maple leaf means in the eyes of the South Vietnamese?"

It was only then that Zhuo Yibai realized that the maple leaf folding fan delivered to the room three days ago had such profound meaning. Color teaser.

He looked at her, his eyes flickering, "I didn't mean to humiliate the princess. The princess is a distinguished guest of Tianlu, so I didn't dare to neglect, so I didn't return the gift. As for the things in the brocade box, I didn't intend to Accept it, but sent it to the warehouse of the palace for storage."

When he said this, his tone was extremely firm, which made people suspect that this was not his sincere words, maybe he had misunderstood something and said something wrong.

How could anyone refuse the favor of such a charming girl from heaven?

　I touched the computer today, I hope there will be nothing to delay the stable update.
