Chapter 594
"Father, you must not say that. You also know that the evil dragon is surging. It is human nature that they can't protect you. What's more, it is late at night. It is my son's fault. I shouldn't be in the middle of the night.
She dressed up and looked too ostentatious, which made the evil dragon become malicious."
Emperor Ximen couldn't help but sigh when he heard that Guanyue Diji actually took this matter on him. This daughter was so kind by nature, almost as kind as her mother and concubine.
It's a pity that this appearance doesn't suit me, it's too different. It would be perfect if the princess' condition could be changed again.
"But it doesn't matter, now that you are back, my father can let go of his heart. By the way, Guanyue, tell me who the warrior who saved you is, is he in the palace now?"
Emperor Ximen was quite curious, wondering who was so brave and saved his precious daughter.
Guanyue Diji's words were quite polite. If it weren't for her ugly appearance, everyone would still like her very much.
After all, others first look at her face, and this face is her image. If it weren't for the fact that she is a princess, those people would not be able to avoid her, let alone take the initiative to approach her.
Guanyue Diji said respectfully: "To return to my father, the person who saved me is a member of the Heroes Association. Each of them is very brave. Their bravery in slaying the dragon is all visible to me, and they have won my heart.
Among them, the young knight named Ouyang Furui performed particularly well, and he is the son he saved, and he is waiting outside this hall now."
"Oh? I have heard about the Heroes' Association. Their reputation exceeds that of the entire Elemental Continent. As far as I know, the man named Xia Fan in the Heroes' Association is the captain of their team and the most powerful among them.
Wasn't he the one who saved you?"
Faced with Emperor Ximen's doubts, Guanyue Diji did not hide anything. She could tell that Emperor Ximen didn't believe it. The emperor didn't think Ouyang Furui was someone who could accomplish great things.
Guanyue Diji understood instantly, and he replied patiently: "Father, you should not be judged by appearance. The captain of the Heroes Association is indeed good, and the others are also very good. My benefactor is also a very outstanding person. Father, please
Let’s make a decision again.”
After hearing this, Emperor Ximen pondered for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, he thought for a moment and then replied: "Well... I am being rude when you say that. You said he is waiting outside the palace now, right?"
"Yes, Father." Guanyue Diji replied without hesitation.
"Okay! Come, let the members of the Heroes Association enter the hall."
"Members of the Proclaimed Heroes Association enter the palace~"
The moment he heard these words, Ouyang Furui's heart was raised, like a frightened bird, afraid that something would suddenly hit his head, and he seemed not calm at all.
It's over, it's over, it's really over now! I actually want to see His Majesty! We must not make any mistakes at this time!
Amitabha, no, I have to make a draft in my mind to relieve my emotions. It is not feasible to continue like this.
Ouyang Furui suddenly felt frightened and seemed extremely nervous. Even his face turned pale with fright, as if he were made of paper. He couldn't breathe smoothly and almost fainted on the spot.
For some reason, he suddenly felt as if the soles of his feet were filled with lead. He couldn't lift them up, and they seemed extremely heavy. It became so difficult to take a step, and he felt like he couldn't even breathe easily.
Ouyang Furui wanted to scold himself, why he couldn't walk at the critical moment.
Get up, get up! At worst, just go all out and just fight! Ouyang Furui, it's not like you to be so cowardly!
No matter if it’s a mule or a horse, you have to take it out for a walk. It’s just to see His Majesty. What’s the big deal? He’s not a dragon, and he can’t eat people. Let’s go! If you don’t leave, Your Majesty will have to take it.
Anxious.
Ouyang Furui could only bite the bullet and move forward under his own pressure.
Even though my heart was extremely heavy, I still felt nervous like never before, and I really felt like I was going to faint.
What should I say when I see His Majesty? Bah ah ah! I have no experience, please help me! Who will help me?
Ouyang Furui was panicked. He had never been so scared before, as if this so-called emperor was more terrifying than dragons.
Ouyang Furui walked towards the palace with heavy steps.
It was his first time to come to the palace, and it was also his first time to meet the Holy Spirit. It was inevitable to be nervous, but he just didn't know what His Majesty would think.
Do you feel stupid when you first see yourself? No, no, now is not the time to dwell on this. I won’t be offended when I see His Majesty later. I have to sort out my thoughts and think carefully about what to say.
He didn't know how long he had walked. This seemingly short road became extremely long, as if it had never been this long before, and he was quite speechless.
From the moment he saw Emperor Ximen's face, Ouyang Furui instinctively felt that his legs were weak, he suddenly trembled, and his speech became unclear.
This, this person is the Nine-Fifth One among ten thousand people? What should I do if I meet him for the first time?
If nothing else, just kneel down quickly.
Ouyang Furui only hated that his mind was blank at the critical moment, and he wanted to slap himself directly. He could only bite the bullet and spread out his long coat, touch his knees to the ground and kneel down, lowered his head, and said in a trembling voice
:
"Grass, the common people bow to your majesty, I, my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"
"Well...get up."
"Yes, thank you Your Majesty."
Ouyang Furui only felt that his legs were no longer in control, and he was shivering violently. The shaking was unnatural, as if he had arthritis. He was out of control. No matter how he tried to calm it down, it was useless. It was really a strange thing.
.
I finally managed to stand up straight with my legs, but my back was like a camel. I couldn't straighten myself no matter how hard I tried. I could only bow my body and salute. If I thought about it carefully, this wasn't a bad thing. I treated it as a tribute to His Majesty.
It's a courtesy.
Huh, I'm so nervous. I don't know what I have to ask myself later. It would be terrible if I can't answer the answer at the critical moment. I just hope that Your Majesty can say something better, or at least not say something that will embarrass me.
, otherwise it will cause Long Yan to be furious.
"I have heard about you from Guan Yue. I have only heard of your Heroes Association before, but I have never seen your true appearance. Now that I have seen you, your reputation is indeed well-deserved. Heroes have been born since ancient times.
Ah, the younger generation is to be feared, the younger generation is to be feared!”
Ouyang Furui was shocked when he heard what Emperor Ximen said. Even if he was grabbed by someone, he looked very uneasy. He didn't know where to put his eyes. He hesitated for a long time and couldn't say anything.
So.
What he fears most is that His Majesty suddenly said these kind words, and he doesn't know how to respond. It's okay to admit it, and it's not okay not to admit it. What should he do now?
With hundreds of claws scratching his heart, Ouyang Furui finally made a decision. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, step forward, clasped his fists and saluted, and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty's words are serious, and the common people are ashamed. It is only because of the help of the common people and their friends that we can rescue Di Ji. Otherwise, the common people alone would not be able to rescue the emperor."
"What you said is obvious. I still believe in your character. You seem to be quite honest. In any case, you saved my Guanyue. I should reward you. If you have anything you want, just say it.
, I will be satisfied with you."
"Your Majesty, is it true that you can satisfy ordinary people with anything?"
What Ouyang Furui wanted was Emperor Ximen's words. He had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Thinking about it carefully, although this request is not too much, it does make a toad want to eat swan meat.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, it is a waste of natural resources, but now for the sake of my own ideals, I can only do this. I will give it a try first, not to mention that His Majesty seems to be a good talker, and he should not be able to embarrass others.
"It doesn't matter if you just say so."
In Emperor Ximen's view, as long as it doesn't go too far, he will be satisfied as much as possible. As long as he wants to get an official position, he can be rewarded with thousands of taels of gold. Besides, the other person looks like he has real ability, unlike
It's fake.
"The common people are frightened. After thanking Your Majesty for your kindness, the common people dare to ask Your Majesty for a marriage. If Your Majesty agrees, please complete the marriage as soon as possible."
"marriage?"
Emperor Ximen really didn't expect this. It turned out that this was what he wanted.
It was simple for him, but what he couldn't figure out was who exactly Ouyang Furui wanted to betrothed to in this marriage? It couldn't be his Guanyue, right? That's fine.
Since ancient times, swords have been given to heroes, and cherry blossoms have been given to beauties. Some heroes have a hard time with beauties. It seems that the same is true for the warriors of this Hero Association.
After hearing this, Emperor Guan Yue felt secretly happy and seemed a little embarrassed. She mistakenly thought that Ouyang Furui wanted to be the prince-in-law.
Guanyue Diji mistakenly thought that Fu Rui was in love with her, and she was so excited that she almost screamed.
"As far as your majesty is concerned, the common people have reached the age where it is time to marry. We are sincerely pleased with Miss Xia Xue'er, the legitimate daughter of the General Zhenguo's family. If you agree, the common people will do their best to thank your majesty."
What?
Miss Xia...
When she heard this answer, Guanyue Diji felt inexplicably disappointed. She thought about how this could happen, and thought he would marry her, but she never expected it.
Sure enough, all the men in the world are the same, they all care about their appearance. Isn’t it a good life to be a prince-in-law? At least you don’t have to look down at others to survive. This is considered superior to others. But I didn’t expect that he would be like this.
Chilling...
Ugh... isn't it just that the looks are a little bit worse? What's so good about it is that if you don't marry me, I won't want to marry you!
"Xia Aiqing, did you hear that?"
After saying this, Emperor Ximen turned his attention to Xia Ci and wanted to ask him what he thought and whether he had any objections. If he had any objections, just put them forward. Of course, if he wanted to resist the decree,
You can give it a try.
Emperor Ximen believed that the daughter of the Xia family was indeed well-born, beautiful and well-liked by others. If he had such a beautiful daughter, he would not be willing to marry her off.
"My lord... I heard you clearly."
Xia Xia Ci managed to squeeze out such a sentence from between his teeth, as if it was difficult to say this, and at the same time he was somewhat reluctant.
"You won't mind if I betroth your apple to this hero, right?"
