Chapter 528 Absurd Conditions

When An Xishi noticed something was wrong, she suddenly thought that there are people in the world who are good at disguises who would fabricate a fake Adam's apple.This is also a common method used by many women who go out on the rivers and lakes to confuse people.

What if Huo Qiqi was a woman?

Then it all makes sense!

But why did the Protector House conceal Huo Qiqi's true identity?When did Li Yuanbai and the emperor know that Huo Qiqi was a daughter?
However, when she saw Huo Qiqi's carefree behavior, she hesitated again.

Even if Huo Qiqi was a daughter, Duke Protector probably wouldn't raise her like a man.When An Xi thought about it carefully for a while, Huo Qiqi's words and demeanor on weekdays were really no different from that of a man.

Besides, Huo Qiqi used to hang around in brothels all year round.If Huo Qiqi was really a girl, it seemed unreasonable.

No matter how capable An Xi is, she is also an ancient lady. Her background and environment doom her thinking to limitations.

From her point of view, no matter how much Huo Qiqi was spoiled by Duke Protector, if Huo Qiqi was a girl, he would not let Huo Qiqi mess around and go to the flower house to have a good time.After all, a girl's reputation is more important than anything else.

Two contradictory thoughts kept alternating in An Xishi's mind, thinking about it made her brain ache, but facing Li Yuanbai's choice, no matter how capable she was, she still had no way to solve it at this moment.

"Huo Qiqi, you're going too far." Princess Na Ren was so angry that she was about to cry, Huo Qiqi was so unreasonable.Well, let's just think that she is in an unlucky time, Li Yuanbai likes men, she bears it, who told her to love Li Yuanbai to the extreme.

But why did Huo Qiqi not allow Li Yuanbai to marry his side concubine?

"Huo Qiqi, it's hard to chase after a gentleman's words. No matter what the reason for the damage to King Hui's reputation, it's all because of you." The emperor reprimanded Huo Qiqi with a straight face. "The consequences will naturally be borne by you."

"Your Majesty, this old minister has something to say." At this moment, Duke Hu Guo said again, "The late emperor has a will, and the marriage of the Huo family's descendants is left to the Huo family to decide. His Royal Highness King Hui has both literary and military skills, and the old minister thinks that Qiqi has a bad temper." If you are not worthy of King Hui, please forgive the old minister's worries."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone sighed again.

When the country was founded, the Huo family accompanied the Li family to conquer the world. The ancestors did promise that the marriage of the Huo family's heirs would be decided by the Huo family.And these years, the royal family has indeed not interfered with the marriage of the Huo family's descendants.

The expressions of the crowd were complicated. The eyes that fell on Huo Qiqi included jealousy, worry, and gloating. Of course, some people took a wait-and-see attitude.

Duke Hu opened his mouth, and the emperor also felt embarrassed.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Yuanbai felt that if he didn't speak again, his daughter-in-law, who was already firmly established, was about to fly away.

Therefore, he lightly suggested, "The Huo family has always been righteous and benevolent, and my king's feelings for Huo Qiqi will never be adulterated. Emotional matters are the most hurtful, and they are also the hardest to explain clearly. Huo Qiqi, Huo Qiqi's reasons For what purpose, if she just let it go, wouldn't it be too unfair to the king?"

"His Royal Highness King Hui." Duke Huguo laughed dryly, but in his heart he wished he could kick Li Yuanbai out.

"Duke Protector." Li Yuanbai waved his hand at Duke Protector, "Can you allow me to say a few words to Huo Qiqi? After all, this matter is between me and her, and no one else can understand the taste of it."

"What does the lord want to say?" Huo Qiqi said lazily.

"Huo Qiqi, give me a chance. If you still can't accept my love within three years, then I can let you go and give you freedom?" Li Yuanbai looked at her with a faint smile and asked.

Pooh!Huo Qiqi really wanted to spit him out.I really think she is stupid, love grows after a long time, can the old saying be wrong?
With Li Yuanbai's skin, let alone three years around her, even two years, she doesn't know if she can survive.

After all, seriously, she didn't hate Li Yuanbai in her heart.No, it should be said that she still has a little affection for Li Yuanbai.

Huo Qiqi had some idea of ​​his ability to resist temptation.

"Huo Qiqi, you're so hesitant, don't you worry about giving up in the end?" King Rui added to the flames.

Huo Qiqi rolled his eyes at him impatiently, aggressive methods were useless to her.

"My lord, if you like it, you like it, and if you don't like it, you don't like it. I never do hypothetical things."

This is a rejection of Li Yuanbai's proposal.

The Queen Mother was furious, Huo Qiqi was so arrogant.

Huo Qiqi's refusal was more embarrassing to the Queen Mother than Li Yuanbai finding a man as his wife.The Huo family had indeed made great contributions to the Dayun Kingdom, but Huo Qiqi slapped him in the face in public, and he didn't have the consciousness of a courtier at all.

The queen mother felt that the emperor should give Huo Qiqi some color, otherwise today's banquet is over, and the officials and envoys don't know how to talk about the royal family in private?
"Huo Qiqi, I won't interfere with your marriage. But the matter started because of you, and rumors are flying all over the world. Even if you want to explain it, how can you explain it clearly? It's even more absurd, if your Huo family leaves, will Zhen, King Hui and the entire royal family become the laughing stock of everyone?"

"The old minister is terrified." The protector of the country is not stupid, and he refused to accept it.

"I feel that today's matter can be let go for now. The rumors outside have a profound impact on King Hui's reputation. King Hui proposed to marry the Huo family today. This brother thinks it's just a whim of King Hui. Time can erase everything, Huo Qiqi, You can use three years to eliminate the bad rumors from the outside world." Seeing that the atmosphere in the hall was oppressive, and under the hint of the emperor, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and stand up as a peacemaker.

To be honest, it was a lot of pressure for him to stand up and say these words.

Whether it's the emperor, King Hui, or the old guy Huguogong, none of them are good enemies, and he doesn't want to offend in any way.Besides, this matter had nothing to do with him in the first place, so why should he be made to stand in the crack as a doormat.

"The old minister also thinks that King Ling's proposal is very good. The rumors outside will not stop for a while, and the old minister feels that if King Hui's marriage is slow, the rumors will naturally calm down." The Minister of Rites stood up and agreed. He is the eldest prince. faction.

Huo Qiqi didn't even lift his eyelids.

Can she say no?Haha, there is probably no room for her to speak at all.

She has always been self-aware, and imperial power has always been like this.With the interests at hand, no matter how favored the Lord Protector's Mansion is on weekdays, it will not help.

Anyway, it doesn't mean marriage, she doesn't care at all.

Of course, she felt that she should also have a chance, since she thought Li Yuanbai was a decent person.Three years is enough to prove whether there is any fate between her and Li Yuanbai.

"I think it's inappropriate." Smart people can see that King Ling is the master who stands up to make peace with the elders, but there are some people who don't know how to praise, "Men and women marry, yin and yang are reconciled, it is God's destiny The marriage between King Hui and Huo Qiqi is against the rules. I ask the emperor to think twice."

When someone opened their mouths, others agreed, and as the censor objected, some people knelt down again.

Think twice!The emperor secretly kept the opponents in mind.

The Duke Protector was very happy, he wished that everyone would oppose it.
