Emperor Ming glanced at his lovely baby daughter acting coquettishly with him, and felt very happy. When people grow old, they like to see their children spend more time with them in front of them. Compared to their daughter's happiness, the royal family's face is not that important. .
It is indeed the best situation for Xu Tianzhen to marry Huo Yuhao. After Xu Tianzhen formally made this request, Emperor Ming would also officially start to consider paving the way for their union.
After Xu Tianzhen exited the room, Emperor Ming swayed and sat slumped on the large chair. After relaxing for a while, he felt much better.
Emperor Ming sighed. His physical condition was getting worse day by day, but Emperor Ming knew that he did not have any illness. This was a sign that his end was coming, and there was no way to make up for it.
After experiencing life and death once, Emperor Ming was quite open-minded about life and death. He knew that he would experience this day sooner or later. Emperor Ming calmly faced the deterioration of his physical condition and tried his best to reach his end before his death. Just make arrangements for what you need to do beforehand.
Xu Tianzhen didn't know about her father's situation, but she was in a good mood. At least she was going to marry Huo Yuhao, and now she could be with Qiu'er.
"Innocent, why are you so happy?"
Xu Tianzhen came out of Emperor Ming's palace and was walking on the palace road. Xu Tianran was sitting in a wheelchair and was pushed by Orange to approach her. Although Xu Tianran was crazy, he loved his little girl.
"Brother Emperor, it's nothing. I just happened to think of something happy. Is this my sister-in-law? She's so beautiful."
Xu Tianzhen was in a good mood. When talking to her brother, she even praised Orange. The reason why Xu Tianzhen didn't regard Orange as an ordinary palace maid was because of the clothes she wore. Ordinary palace maids would not wear such elegant and luxurious clothes.
"You have observed well. Orange is about to become the princess, your sister-in-law. However, the empire is in troubled times right now, so the big gift may have to be postponed for a while."
Xu Tianran smiled gently and said to Xu Tianzhen.
"Congratulations, brother, for marrying such a beautiful sister-in-law. Brother, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Xu Tianzhen couldn't wait to share this matter with Wang Qiuer and Huo Yuhao, so he didn't want to say anything to his brother now. Anyway, he could meet him whenever he wanted.
"You girl, the Mingdu team has been eliminated, what else can you do?"
Before Xu Tianran finished speaking, Xu Tianran made a face and ran away.
Xu Tianran watched Xu Tianzhen's leaving figure gradually disappear, and the gentle smile hanging on the corner of his mouth slowly disappeared. I am afraid that Xu Tianzhen is the only person who can evoke the last remaining humanity in him.
"How did things go?"
Xu Tianran's eyes were still looking at the place where Xu Tianzhen left, and he asked without looking back.
"It's all done. We guarantee that our people will control the hub of the palace when the operation starts. The external soul shield will be brought to the minimum protection level. We can't cancel the protection order yet. As you know, Your Highness, that requires Emperor Ming. Once we exceed our authority, the shield strength will be strengthened."
Orange answered Xu Tianran's question respectfully.
"This is enough. The defense of the palace is indeed the top priority. It is enough to achieve this level. The rest depends on our hard power."
Xu Tianran was calm when he spoke, as if he didn't care about such a big thing as rebellion.
"Your Highness is wise."
Orange whispered.
"Is there any problem with the Holy Spirit Sect?"
Xu Tianran asked next.
"No problem. They will enter the designated location to cooperate with us as scheduled. They will retreat after we succeed. They will come back when we have grasped the core of the empire."
Orange replied that this was the preliminary policy they had formulated at the time. When the empire was in turmoil, it was not suitable for them to come forward to support Xu Tianran. It would be most appropriate for them to show up again after Xu Tianran has taken control of the overall situation.
"Well, let's go back. We just need to wait for the actions of the Douluo Alliance."
After listening, Xu Tianran nodded. He didn't seem to care about the credibility of the Holy Spirit Sect, and showed that he believed in the sincerity of the Holy Spirit Sect.
There is a reason why Xu Tianran is not worried about this. The Sun and Moon Empire is the most powerful. No force can control the Sun and Moon Empire by killing the Sun and Moon royal family. That will arouse firm resistance from all over the Sun and Moon Empire. The Holy Spirit Sect obviously does not If they have enough strength to quell these resistances, their wisest choice is to cooperate with the royal members of the Sun and Moon Empire, so that they can get a share of the Sun and Moon Empire.
Furthermore, even if we don’t mention the resistance of the entire Sun-Moon Empire, just the forces loyal to the Sun-Moon Empire in the Ming capital cannot be solved by the Holy Spirit Sect. If they kill Xu Tianran, it will definitely arouse the Ming Dynasty. Without the resistance of all the forces, the Holy Spirit Sect will be seeking destruction. You must know that even the alliance of all the forces in the Douluo Continent was only able to defeat the Sun and Moon Empire without conquering any of the Sun and Moon mainland.
What's more, it has been three thousand years, and the development of soul guidance devices is changing with each passing day. No one can tell how powerful the comprehensive national power of the Sun and Moon Empire has become.
No matter how strong the Holy Spirit Sect is, it cannot be as strong as all the official forces in the entire Douluo Continent. Want to control the sun and the moon? Unless the leader of the Holy Spirit Sect is crazy.
However, this is just for now. Any troubles that may arise in the future will need to be solved by Xu Tianran's wisdom, provided that their plan to usurp the throne can succeed.
After Xu Tianran finished speaking, Juzi slowly pushed him back to the Prince's Mansion. The whole journey was lively and people had bright smiles on their faces. Mingdu was calm on the surface, but in fact there was an undercurrent. .
After Xu Tianzhen said goodbye to his brother, he went directly to the resting place of the Sun and Moon Team without even stopping. Although they did not stay at the Sun and Moon Hotel, with Xu Tianzhen's status, he could easily find out where they were resting.
"Qiu'er, Qiu'er, I'm here to find you."
As soon as he entered the door, Xu Tianzhen shouted at the top of his lungs.
How could the Sun Moon Team students who happened to be outside not recognize Xu Tianzhen? But they didn't understand the truth of the matter, and thought that Xu Tianzhen was here to seek revenge for Wang Qiuer's defeat yesterday. The reputation of the little princess Xu Tianzhen must have been heard by them in the Ming Dynasty.
"Little princess, what are you doing here?"
Someone who had a good relationship with Huo Yuhao and the others came up to talk to Xu Tianzhen, and asked people to quickly notify Huo Yuhao and the others, telling them to leave quickly and endure it themselves. This was quite a tragic act of self-sacrifice.
"What does it have to do with you? Where is Wang Qiu'er? Tell me quickly."
Xu Tianzhen didn't want to pay attention to him. She raised her eyebrows and asked with her hands on her hips.
"Well, Miss Qiu'er and the others are not here, why don't you come back another day? Or you can tell me what I am looking for for them. When I see them, I will ask them to find you immediately."
In order to protect Wang Qiuer, this person deliberately placed his position very low, just to make Xu Tianzhen feel better.
"Tell you? This is our privacy. Why should I tell you? You said they weren't here. I don't believe it. It's so early in the morning. Where could they go?"
Hearing the words of the person in front of him, Xu Tianzhen became very angry. This is obviously a movie between the three of them. Do you have a name?
"I'm here, do you have anything to do with me?"
After Wang Qiuer learned that Wang Qiuer came to find her, she did not choose to avoid it, but came directly to her. She had nothing to hide from.
"You go ahead and do your work. Thank you for your hard work."
Wang Qiuer and Huo Yuhao walked out together, and when they came to Xu Tianzhen, Huo Yuhao patted the shoulder of the person who volunteered to "sacrifice" and spoke to him gently.
At this time, he also understood. Judging from the calm expressions on the two people's faces, they probably had no major conflict with Xu Tianzhen, and it was just him who was overly preoccupied.
As soon as Huo Yuhao spoke, he ran away immediately. He had just deceived Xu Tianzhen. If she was held accountable for this, it would be over! If you don't run now, when will you wait?
"Hey, why are you running away? How dare you lie to this princess! What is your name? Let's see how I deal with you!"
Seeing him running away, Xu Tianzhen hurriedly cursed.
"Little princess, stop shouting. He also means well, so don't pursue it."
Huo Yuhao tried to smooth things over by saying that he was his good brother after all, so how could he give him to Xu Tianzhen to vent his anger.
"Hmph, that boy dared to lie to me. Tell me what his name is."
Xu Tianzhen insisted on asking.
"Forget it, I forgot his name. By the way, what do you want from Qiu'er?"
Huo Yuhao changed the topic, trying to explain away what happened just now.
Xu Tianzhen rolled her eyes at his previous sentence. He is your brother. How can you forget his name? But after hearing his next words, Xu Tianzhen really didn't want to pursue it anymore, because there was still business to do!
"Of course it's a good thing, Qiu'er, guess what I did today?"
Xu Tianzhen did not answer Huo Yuhao, but smiled mysteriously at Wang Qiuer.
Huo Yuhao had a bad feeling in his heart.
"What have you been doing?"
Qiu'er looked back at Huo Yuhao and felt a little in her heart. This Xu Tianzhen wouldn't really tell his father that he wanted to marry Yuhao, right?
"I went to my father early this morning to tell him that I wanted to marry Huo Yuhao, and he agreed. Qiu'er, you can't run away now, can you? I don't like Huo Yuhao. It's all for you. Unless you say you If I don’t like Huo Yuhao anymore, then I can only lament the fate of people.”
Xu Tianzhen said proudly, obviously not believing that Wang Qiuer would not like Huo Yuhao.
"What?"
Wang Qiuer and Huo Yuhao said in surprise in unison.
Not only the two of them, but also the other students who were still listening to the commotion here were stunned. They automatically filtered out other things and only heard the key points. The princess was rushing to marry Huo Yuhao. ! ?
Sure enough, he was afraid of what he was doing. He didn't expect Xu Tianzhen to actually tell Emperor Ming about this matter. This would be troublesome. If he didn't agree, it would be a disgrace to Emperor Ming. This would be fatal!
"Emperor Ming really agreed?"
Huo Yuhao asked in disbelief.
"Of course, my father also thinks you are a nice person, so you can keep your beauty secret, but I have promised you that you are not allowed to touch me without my permission. I didn't marry you because I liked you. "
Xu Tianzhen raised his head and glanced at Huo Yuhao and said.
"This, this, this..."
Huo Yuhao's head really hurt when he faced this lawless Xu Tianzhen. Isn't this nonsense?
Wang Qiu'er on the side didn't know what to say when faced with this scene. Why does your human world seem more chaotic than the soul beast world?
"Let me slow down, let me slow down."
Huo Yuhao didn't know how to deal with the matter in front of him, so he could only cover his forehead and keep talking.
"Hey, Huo Yuhao, you don't really have any thoughts about this princess that you shouldn't have. Let me tell you, marrying you is true, but you can't do anything to this princess. I have to be with Qiu'er. In this case, don’t try to take advantage of me, right? Qiu’er.”
Seeing Huo Yuhao being so troubled, Xu Tianzhen said dissatisfied, "What? Huo Yuhao obviously has bad intentions, otherwise why would he be so entangled."
Huo Yuhao did not comment on this. Getting married is not that simple, especially since Xu Tianzhen is still a princess. If Emperor Ming really decides on this marriage, there will be a lot of troubles in the future. It is not as simple as Xu Tianzhen thought. , but this matter cannot be rushed. Xu Tianzhen is ignorant and Huo Yuhao cannot follow her around. He has no other feelings for Xu Tianzhen and does not want to get married in such a haphazard manner. He will have to go to the interview as soon as the matter here is settled. See Emperor Ming explain his attitude.
"I'm really convinced by you. You led me to fool around in the first place, and now you're like this again. I can't rely on you this time."
Huo Yuhao became firm after making up his mind.
"Why am I fooling around? You were originally one of the marriage partners chosen by my father for me. I am the most talented woman in the royal family, so who do you think I should marry? If I go to get married, that's not Is it too much of a waste of my talents? What’s more, why would you be wronged by marrying me?"
Xu Tianzhen said aggrievedly that she didn't have a man she liked. If possible, she would naturally want to be with Qiu'er, but Shi Shi did not agree, and Qiu'er didn't have the intention, so in this case, she might as well marry Huo Yuhao. Well, no one is better than him anyway.
"you……"
Huo Yuhao wanted to refute something, but he couldn't.
The people in the royal family are good at everything, except for the free love aspect. However, the two of them have no emotional basis. It is best to consider this matter in the long term.
"Forget it, forget it. When things here come to an end, I'll go see Emperor Ming. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run."
Huo Yuhao sighed, feeling aggrieved. What was this all about? Isn't he just a little stronger? As for catching a sheep to pluck its wool?
Two days passed quickly, and the battle of the top eight in the Soul Master Competition was about to begin. The Sun Moon Team had a very boring time these two days. They didn't need to rest, because no team could even force them out. The second person came, but the other teams' mental outlook did improve a lot after these two days of rest. It seemed that they all took advantage of these two days of precious rest time.
