"Isn't it? It seems that I have misunderstood. Listening to Mr. Xiao's heated words, I always feel that you are forcing my father to punish the regent."

Nan Xi glanced at Xiao Changheng with a mocking look. Nangong Rui was pleased to hear that his precious daughter defended him, and decided not to say anything to see how the old guy would respond.

"I just want my little girl to be comforted in heaven. It has nothing to do with forcing His Majesty."

"Since my father has already explained that what the regent did was reasonable and did not violate the laws of Wansheng Kingdom, why is Master Xiao still so aggressive?" Nan Xi asked calmly.

"My lord, no."

"Master Xiao, I may ask one more question."

"Emperor Ji, please say——"

Xiao Changheng was already sweating profusely. Why was this Emperor Ji more difficult to deal with than Xia Houqi?
"Is my marriage contract with the Prince Regent known to the world?"

"Yes"

"If nothing unexpected happens, will the regent join the palace and become the royal husband in the future?"

"Yes"

"Does Mr. Xiao still have any questions now? Everyone knows that Xia Houqi is engaged to this palace and is my future royal husband. Not only does Mr. Xiao not consider that his daughter will marry Xia Houqi as a concubine, but he also knows that Isn't it a gamble to marry your daughter to Xia Houqi at the risk of being divorced?" Nan Xi said with a sneer.

Xiao Changheng blushed when Nan Xi said it, and immediately became angry with embarrassment. Then he became angry with embarrassment and pointed at Nan Xi:

"Why does Emperor Ji slander me like this? I am not gambling."

"Really? Are you really betting that I won't come back?" The smile on the corner of Nan Xi's mouth was full of ridicule, making everyone lower their heads.

Not only Xiao Changheng, but all those who married their daughters to the Regent's Palace were gambling with the idea that as long as Nangong Chuxi could not come back, their daughters would have a place in the Regent's Palace.

But it is a pity that Di Ji was still found in Shengjing, and her status is unshakable. The marriage between the regent and Di Ji is inevitable.

"Father, I feel that the Prince Regent is not wrong at all. Some people are greedy and swallow the elephant. Now they are just reaping the consequences."

After Nan Xi told Xiao Changheng that he had no face to face anyone, he turned around and looked at Nangong Rui. At the same time, he also expressed his attitude and protected her husband fiercely.

Xia Houqi was very happy to see Nan Xi standing up for him like this, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

When Nangong Rui saw that she had made this old guy Xiao Changheng so embarrassed, he felt very happy.

"Di Ji is right, Xiao Qing, don't mention this matter again in the future."

After saying that, Nangong Rui announced his resignation and left.

The other courtiers also left quickly without staying, for fear that they would be involved in the entanglement between Xiao Changheng and Xia Houqi.

"Prince Regent, if you bully others with your power, you will get retribution." Xiao Changheng glared at Xia Hou Qidao angrily.

Xia Houqi originally sympathized with Xiao Changheng for losing his daughter, but now he just feels that he is relying on his old age and acting unreasonably, and has no sympathy for him.

"I will also send these words to Master Xiao. There will be no contact between the Prince Regent's Palace and Xiao's Palace in the future."

After saying that, Xia Houqi took Nan Xi and left together, leaving Xiao Changheng alone in the same place.

After leaving the court, the pace of the two people slowed down.

"Just now you spoke for me in the court, you have offended Xiao Changheng." Xia Houqi chuckled softly.

"So what, from the moment he sent people to assassinate me, I have been at odds with him." Nan Xi said nonchalantly. "Is it because of me that I treated him like that just now?"

Nan Xi couldn't help but rolled her eyes when she saw Xia Houqi asking questions knowingly.

So what if?For the dead Xiao Ruyan?

Seeing that she remained silent, Xiahou Qi's face became even more proud:

"It seems that Emperor Ji doesn't dislike this king as much as she appears, and she doesn't hesitate to offend the ministers in order to protect me."

"Don't come here. I dislike you a lot. But you are a member of this palace and the future emperor's wife. How can you let him be bullied by a little second-grade minister? I will feel embarrassed if you tell me. ." Nan Xi was still being stubborn here.

Xia Houqi didn't argue with her about what was going on. Instead, he gently took her hand and placed it by his side. Then he looked at her with a smile and said nothing.

Nan Xi looked into his eyes and saw only love and happiness in his eyes, and no other complicated things.

She couldn't help but curl her lips:

"Are you a kindergarten kid? Why are you so happy to hold hands?"

"Kindergarten? What is this?" Xia Houqi looked at Nan Xi in confusion and asked.

"It's just a school for children. I think you are no different from children. You have no future." Nan Xi laughed and teased Xia Hou Qidao.

"If I can hold Di Ji's hand, what else can I achieve?"

Nan Xi glanced at him and sneered, which was considered to be a sign of condoning Xia Houqi's shamelessness.

In Bailing Palace, Concubine Lin was looking for a candidate for the eldest prince's concubine, and the third princess was helping with reference.

"Mother, the daughter of the Zuo family is quite good, with outstanding appearance. She is also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is worthy of being an imperial brother."

Nangong Wanyue brought the portrait of the daughter of the Zuo family in front of Concubine Lin and said.

"Her talents and appearance are all top-notch, but her family background is a little inferior, and she is not as good as the daughter of the prime minister." Concubine Lin couldn't help but sigh after looking at the portrait in the hands of the third princess.

"Mother and concubine, why don't you let the emperor choose? See if you want the daughter of the prime minister or the daughter of the Zuo family."

After saying that, Concubine Lin and the third princess looked at the eldest prince together.

Nangong Fuyang put down the tea cup, then curled his lips:
"It's fine for the mother and concubine to make the decision. None of the sons and ministers have any objections. Naturally, the choices made by the mother and concubine are excellent."

"Brother Emperor, you can't be in such a quarrel with her. Your princess will be with you for the rest of her life. Naturally, she has to choose someone that Brother Emperor likes."

Nangong Wanyue said disapprovingly, and then looked at him coquettishly.

"There is no such thing as liking or disliking the marriage of royal children, only maximizing benefits." Nangong Fuyang said nonchalantly.

Nangong Wanyue curled her lips. The eldest brother is so boring. He doesn't care about his marriage so much. He will regret it in the future!

Concubine Lin glanced at him with satisfaction, "Yang'er is right. How many of the children of the royal family have married or married the person they like? It's nothing more than self-interest. It's okay to slowly develop feelings after getting married. .”

"As for the prince and concubine of my son, my mother and concubine can just watch and choose. I believe my mother and concubine's vision." Nangong Fuyang smiled and handed over the matter to Concubine Lin.

After chatting for a while, Nangong Wanyue continued to stay in Bailing Palace to accompany Lin Guifei to choose a suitable woman, while Nangong Fuyang left first.

It was already dark, and Nangong Fuyang was walking alone on the brick road with no palace attendant by his side, with an indescribable loneliness in his eyes. (End of chapter)
