"The Emperor has arrived!" The eunuch's high-pitched voice interrupted the climax.
Several palace maids and eunuchs were neatly arranged on both sides. A bright yellow figure walked over from a short distance away. When they arrived, everyone knelt down. Only Xia Tan'er, Lu Yimo, Dong Lingjiu and Nan Lingmu only nodded slightly and showed respect.
"See your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live your Majesty."
"Flat body."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The other three are just that, their status is extraordinary. But Xia Tan'er didn't kneel down. A flash of dissatisfaction flashed between the emperor's brows, but with Lu Yimo's presence, it was difficult to get angry.
"Today's palace banquet is a small gathering, so you don't have to be restrained."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Give an order. The spectators who had just gathered around to watch the farce dispersed. The emperor glanced at the eunuch beside him. He called Dong Lingjiu up and walked straight to Lu Yimo and Xia Tan'er.
"What's going on? Why so much noise."
It's too obvious to ask knowingly. Xia Tan'er didn't believe that the emperor could arrive at this time because someone had informed him in time.
"Back to the emperor, I have just been about to reconcile with His Highness the King of Jin."
"Heli? You're so good, why are you Li? Tan'er, why don't you imitate your mother?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yimo looked over. The emperor was startled, coughed slightly, and looked towards Dong Lingjiu.
"Nine Emperor Brother, what do you think this matter should be like?"
The emperor called Dong Lingjiu, but Xia Tan'er didn't even raise her eyes. Dong Lingjiu didn't say a word when he had so many opportunities just now. Xia Tan'er only felt that even now, Dong Lingjiu's offer to help was no different from an afterthought.
Dong Lingjiu's eyes were light and he glanced at a few people.
"My brother thinks that this matter is a family matter of the King of Jin. Both my brother and I are outsiders and cannot make the decision."
"I am Luo'er's father. What's the difference between his family affairs and mine?"
The emperor gave Dong Lingjiu a meaningful look. This Aventurine Jiu really doesn't touch him, and he just avoids talking about everything.
But the more this happened, the more fearful he became. In this world, there is no god with a pure heart and few desires. He doesn't care about anything, but he has other agendas.
Xia Tan'er lowered her head and laughed at herself. She had already guessed this ending. Sure enough, a man's mouth is a liar. She shouldn't have invested 100% in love from the beginning because of the joy when they first met.
She deserved it for giving the other person a chance to hurt herself. But given a second chance, she was so stupid.
Xia Tan'er raised her head. Look directly into the emperor's eyes without fear.
The emperor was stunned, he didn't expect it. The woman who was still timid when entering the palace now had the courage to look him in the eyes. And the cruelty in his eyes was even better than his.
This moment. The emperor knew that Donglingluo could not conquer this woman. This Xia Tan'er seems to be three points more powerful than Lu Yimo.
"Father, since this is a family matter, I will not say any polite words to my father. I really want to make peace with His Highness, Prince Jin."
"It's ridiculous. You proposed the marriage yourself at the beginning. Now you regret it when you say you regret it. What do you think of me or the royal family?"
It seemed that her guess was good. Because of Lu Yimo and the Lu family. The emperor really didn't want her to reconcile with Dongling Luo. In this way, there is only the last resort.
Xia Tan'er banged her knees and hit the ground. He was so proud just now, but he didn't kneel down. Now she knelt down without hesitation. She was so open-minded that she was afraid that what she said next would be detrimental to her. The emperor felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Report to Father."
"On the day of the spring banquet, I asked myself to marry His Highness the King of Jin. There are indeed other reasons."
"What's the reason?"
Xia Tan'er took a deep breath. There was a solemn look on his face. She looked up. There was a strong sense of determination in his eyes, but there was a hint of sadness in this determination. .
"Reporting to my father, on the day of the spring banquet, my daughter suddenly felt unwell during the dinner. She was helped to a room to rest. When she woke up again, she had lost her virginity... By coincidence, His Highness Prince Jin was heard outside the door. The voice. My daughter then thought that the person handling the matter was His Highness the King of Jin... That’s why I boldly asked for it, just to preserve my virginity.”
"It wasn't until a few days ago that I knew that I was pregnant, and His Highness the King of Jin was in a peaceful mood that day... Therefore, there must be someone else who made the tombs that day. If the Emperor doesn't believe it, he can ask the imperial doctor to come over and give him a hand. Then you’ll know.”
It is extremely painful to open your wound again and show it to everyone. But this is the only way Xia Tan'er can escape unscathed.
She was fed up, and she couldn't even pretend to love Dongling Luo.
As for Dong Lingjiu... If she tells the truth, he will probably dislike her... Even if it is not now, it will happen sooner or later in the future.
Instead of wasting time in fear, I would rather fight against all odds and give myself a way out.
Xia Tan'er's back was straight and straight. Like a swaying rose, she remains unyielding despite the howling wind and heavy rain.
Nan Lingmu, who was standing in the corner, had a flash of surprise in his eyes. Most of the women I have seen in the past are vulgar and follow the crowd. Only Xia Tan'er. Dare to truly be yourself.
As soon as Xia Tan'er's words came out. Donglingluo fell to the ground.
The emperor looked surprised. Dong Lingjiu's expression did not change at all, as if he was just a heartless spectator. But if you stare at him carefully, you can see the flash of distress in his eyes.
"My Tan'er!"
When Lu Yimo heard this, he hugged Xia Tan'er into his arms.
She originally thought that the cold shoulder Xia Tan'er received in the Prime Minister's Palace and Prince Jin's Palace was already the worst thing that happened in her life. As long as the reconciliation was successful, the rest of her life would be beautiful.
Unexpectedly. Xia Tan'er actually endured so much pain alone.
Lu Yimo was heartbroken...
Xia Tan'er patted Lu Yimo's back and comforted Lu Yimo.
"Mom, this matter has been pressing in my heart for a long time. Now that I have said it, I am relieved... It's just that this marriage is not allowed to go ahead. If it goes ahead, Tan'er will definitely be mixed with royal blood, and it will be harmful to King Jin. Your Highness is unfair."
"I sincerely request your Majesty's permission to allow my daughter and His Highness the King of Jin to reconcile. From now on, he will walk on his Yangguan Road, and I will walk on my single-plank bridge. There will be no other intersections in this life."
"this……"
The emperor didn't know how to answer for a moment. Xia Tan'er dared to say in public that she had been framed and her innocence was lost. This matter was probably true. But he really couldn't bear this good opportunity to win over the Lu family.
But on the other hand, the child in Xia Tan'er's belly is not a descendant of the royal family. Doesn't it give outsiders the opportunity to laugh at the royal family?
The emperor was confused.
Lu Yimo's eyes were fixed and he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. Get up and ask.
"Your Majesty, if Tan'er hadn't told the truth today, I'm afraid I would never know about it in this life." I also ask the Emperor to find out who did it on the Spring Banquet and give me Tan'er justice. . "
"As for the reconciliation with His Highness the Prince of Jin, it was not only because of this incident, but also because His Highness the Prince of Jin hurt Tan'er on the day of their wedding. Tan'er later informed the courtier about this matter. Due to emotions and reasons, I, the Lu family, accept Don’t tolerate this slight grievance.”
"My wife begs the emperor to allow Tan'er to reconcile with His Highness Prince Jin."
