Lu Yuncheng raised his head without fear: "Father, this is simply not feasible."
Emperor Ming stared at him, his eyes without much warmth.
Probably because they haven't seen each other for all these years, even the little father-son relationship between the two is in danger.
"Princess Tuoba still married me even though she knew that my legs were disabled. Her intentions were obviously impure!"
"Besides, I just said that I will never take a concubine in my life, and my only wife is Qingyu! And what Princess Tuoba wants is more than just a concubine?"
Emperor Ming snorted coldly: "You will never take concubines?"
The words were spoken to Lu Yuncheng, but his eyes fell on Su Qingyu.
He had to admit that Su Qingyu was really beautiful after she regained her appearance, and she looked really good with Lu Yuncheng standing together.
But the prerequisite is to stand together.
"Princess Ling, when did your face get better?"
Su Qingyu understood that if she didn't answer this question well, it might be the crime of deceiving the emperor.
"Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law's face has just improved a few days ago. When she entered the palace today, there were still some dark spots on her face. But for some reason, after Princess Tuoba poured some wine over her, it was all healed."
Su Qingyu made up a lie, not feeling any pressure at all: "It can be considered a blessing in disguise."
Anyway, not two people knew about her good face, it was just whatever she said.
"What a blessing in disguise! Did you force King Ling to agree to his oath not to take concubines?"
"Father! The oath was my own idea and has nothing to do with Qingyu."
Emperor Ming suddenly felt dazed when he looked at Lu Yuncheng's face.
He seemed to be able to see through this face the face that haunted him.
Especially the way Lu Yuncheng defends Su Qingyu, he really looks like her...
Taking advantage of the opportunity to turn around and return to the dragon chair, he closed his eyes and adjusted his slightly rapid breathing.
"Although you two have made mistakes, your merits and demerits are equal to each other. There will be neither punishment nor reward."
As he spoke, Emperor Ming finally turned his attention to the four kneeling people, his eyes filled with the emotion of hating that iron cannot be transformed into steel.
"What about you? Are you aware of your sin?"
King Qi immediately knelt straight and said: "My son, I think that there is nothing wrong today, and I would like to ask my father to make it clear."
"King An, do you also think that you are not guilty today?" Emperor Ming's voice sounded above King An's head.
King An froze.
Reason told him to confess! Maybe my father would just curse him and pass. But there was a voice in his heart that kept telling him, why?
Neither Lu Yuncheng nor Su Qingyu was convicted, so why should he be convicted and punished in front of them?
What's more, he believed that his father was definitely on his side.
"Father, please give me a clear explanation!"
Emperor Ming suddenly sneered: "I am not blind yet! How dare you perform your little tricks in front of me?"
Emperor Ming picked up the tea cup and smashed it on the floor in front of the four of them. They were so frightened that they did not dare to speak.
"Today is the exchange banquet between Daxia and Xichu! Tuoba Linglong is ignorant, are you also ignorant?"
"If it weren't for the fact that the national strength of Xichu in the past two years was obviously not as good as the previous two years, do you think that the envoy of Xichu could swallow the matter so happily?"
Speaking of this, Emperor Ming remembered that Su Qingyu led everyone to safeguard the reputation of Daxia and showed the unity of the people of Daxia in front of Xi Chu.
Comparing his two sons who only knew how to get along with the woman in the backyard, Emperor Ming wished he could smash the teacup in their faces just now.
"Go back, everyone! You will be grounded for seven days!"
When King Qi and King An left the hall with their respective princesses, Su Qingyu also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to leave.
"Princess Ling," Emperor Ming raised his eyes and looked at Su Qingyu's back: "I have something to ask you."
The few people who were about to reach the entrance of the hall froze, secretly thinking that the status of Su Qingyu and Lu Yuncheng in His Majesty's heart was indeed different from what it used to be.
Although Emperor Ming left Su Qingyu behind, he only left Su Qingyu alone.
He stared at Su Qingyu's face for a long time, and then asked in a deep voice: "What is the name of the song you played today?"
"In front are mountains and flowing water, and behind are the songs of entering the formation."
Emperor Ming thought thoughtfully: "Where did you learn this piece of music?"
Su Qingyu's heart skipped a beat, but she still had to pretend she didn't know anything: "My daughter accidentally discovered this song in a medical book."
"Where is the medical book now?"
"Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law's medical book was lost three months ago."
Emperor Ming seemed to be very concerned about this piece of music, which made Su Qingyu feel an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Only she knew in her heart that this song did not belong to this time and space.
On the way back, Su Qingyu kept thinking about Emperor Ming's attention to the music, and she didn't even hear Lu Yuncheng talking to her.
It wasn't until his hand covered hers that she looked up in surprise: "What did you say?"
Lu Yuncheng raised his hand and gently smoothed the wrinkles between her eyebrows: "What are you thinking about? So absorbed? But what did His Majesty say to you?"
Su Qingyu shook her head: "Lu Yuncheng, have you ever heard the music I played today?"
"No."
Thinking of this song, Lu Yuncheng felt an inexplicable panic in his heart: "Father, why did you stay here to ask about this song?"
"Your Majesty seems to have heard of this piece of music and wants me to give him the score."
"You gave it?"
Su Qingyu shook her head, her eyes full of confusion: "The music score was lost three months ago when the Hou Mansion was robbed. How could I get it out?"
"But Your Majesty asked me to write a handwritten copy on the spot."
Lu Yuncheng held her hand tightly so that she could look at him: "Isn't this song from Daxia?"
Or maybe he actually wanted to ask her, did this music not belong to their world?
Su Qingyu nodded, but didn't explain much.
Her only explanation for Emperor Ming's reaction was that in this time and space, there was another person from the same time and space as her.
Moreover, this person once played this piece of music in front of Emperor Ming...
"Hush!"
The breeze stopped the carriage, and Su Qingyu in the carriage suddenly stopped thinking.
"Prince and concubine, His Royal Highness Prince An and Princess An are in front."
If you stop them on the street, you must have something to say.
Su Qingyu and Lu Yun got off the carriage. King An raised his hand to signal from afar, and they entered the restaurant on the roadside.
An Wangding's elegant room is close to the street, elegant and luxurious.
"Qingyu, seeing that your face looks better, I am also very happy for you."
Su Qingyu glanced at Su Qingxue, and when she saw her face was ashen, she almost gritted her back molars.
"You'd better not be happy for me. If you are happy, your Princess An will not be happy."
Su Qingxue raised her eyes and looked at her: "Sister, I was joking. Your face has been healed, so I am naturally happy in my heart."
"Really?" Su Qingyu didn't bother to make excuses with her: "If you don't smile so ugly, I can still trust you two points."
"you......"
"Isn't it difficult to find out Princess Tuoba's habits? Otherwise, you guys wouldn't have to work so hard to push me into the fire pit."
King An's face looked a little ugly: "Qingyu, this matter is just a misunderstanding. I invited you and your wife here just to explain."
