Chapter 107
“Hehe...hehe...” From time to time, there was a terrifying laughter in Xiefang palace hall .
Xia Yuqing circled the place several times, back and forth . Her pinched eyebrows stared at the young girl who started giggling again with a complicated expression .
At this time, Li Yuan happened to walk by . Xia Yuqing hurriedly pulled Li Yuan to the side: “Xiao Yuan, what’s the matter? Did something happen when you came back? Why did Xiao Xi come back like this? It’s like...”
It was as if her brain was kidnapped . She had been walking in front of her, going back and forth for four or five times . She could turn a blind eye to this, but she would also have a miserable look, then from time to time, she would make a few creepy silly laughs . It caused her goose bumps all over . No matter how you look at it... isn’t she in heat? o (╯□╰) o
Li Yuan turned her head and glanced at someone who was still smirking . Then she told her what happened this morning with an embarrassed expression .
After listening to the whole story, Xia Yuqing’s eyes lit up . She touched her chin to make a thinker’s posture, and muttered, “In other words, Xiao Xi only became like this after meeting General He...... . could it be...?”
“Isn’t it obvious, the girl fell in love at first sight, Niang Niang . ” Lu Rui suddenly emerged from the side, still holding the energetic Xiao Bai in her hands .
“The... . first awakening of love . ” Xia Yuqing was startled . For some reason the scene of He Wenzhong and Yun Xi embracing suddenly appeared in her mind . Oh my god, this is the real life version of Beauty and the Beast!
As soon as Xiao Bai in Lu Rui’s arms poked his head out, he saw Yunxi not far away . His eyes lit up . He struggled to make his way towards Yunxi: “Wowowo... ” Sister Xiaolongbao, sister Xiaolongbao...
Yun Xi, who was still in a daze, immediately got up from the chair when she heard the barking of the dog . She stepped back several steps as if facing an enemy, and shouted in a low voice: “Don’t... don’t come here . ”
“Wowowo...” Xiaobai struggled reluctantly and wanted to pounce on Yun Xi .
This movement finally pulled Xia Yuqing’s attention from the shock of the beauty and the beast image in her mind . She lifted her chin back up which had almost fallen off and cast her eyes back and forth on Xiao Bai and Yunxi: “Xiao Xi, are you afraid of dogs?”
“Qing Jiejie, take this dog away, take it away...” Yun Xi hugged a pillar next to her, and pointed to Xiao Bai in Lu Rui’s arms with a pale face and exclaimed .
“...”
“Niang Niang, what should I do now?”
“Well, how about you go to the hospital and ask the doctors and see if there is any way to make the new hair of Xiao Bai’s fall off again?”
“... ”
“Of course, if there is a way to directly turn Xiao Bai from a dog into a cat, it would be even better . ”
“...Niang Niang, why don’t you directly turn Xiao Bai into a female?”
Xia Yuqing was puzzled . Staring at Lu Rui: “If a male becomes a female, Xiao Bai won’t be a dog?”
“...Of course not . ”
“Then that won’t work . It’s better to become a cat directly . Look at how scared Xiao Xi is . ”
“...” But how could it be possible for a dog to become a cat?!
Lu Rui was in disarray for a moment, then took a deep breath: “...how about this, Niang Niang, Nu Bi will tell the people outside to go out and find a little white cat back?”
Xia Yuqing pursed her mouth and looked sad . Glancing at Lu Rui, she patted her shoulder and said: “Lu Rui, if you do this, Xiao Bai would feel that you are disgusted with him and wanted to bring back a cat to fight with him for attention . Xiao Bai is so sensitive, he’ll cry . ”
“...” Bringing a cat back is better than you trying to change it from a dog to a cat! Niang Niang, if you are so self-willed, the doctors will cry .
“Ahem... Niang Niang, let’s talk about this later . Xiao Xi is about to cry . ” Li Yuan reminded them both in a timely voice .
When the two looked back, they saw Yun Xi shivering while holding the pillar . Her big eyes were watery . There was a little irritation that showed the possible burst of the dam . Once it broke, those tears would turn into a river, unable to be withheld .
“Oh, Lu Rui, take Xiao Bai to the side hall to take care of first . ” Xia Yuqing didn’t expect Yun Xi to be so scared of the dog . Shocked, she stopped joking and waved her hand to let Lu Rui take Xiao Bai away .
“Yes, Niang Niang . ”
Watching Xiao Bai leave the front hall, Yun Xi cautiously loosened her grip on the pillar and walked over to Xia Yuqing . Her face was full of fear .
“Xiao Xi, why are you so afraid of dogs? Xiao Bai is just a little dog who can’t bite people . In fact, it looks like he likes you . ” Seeing other people next to him, he didn’t pounce on them and only wanted to pounce on Yun Xi . She had never seen him so passionate before .
“No, I can’t bear it...” Yun Xi’s face was pale when she heard the words . She moved aside twice in horror, and reluctantly said, “Qing Jiejie, don’t make it hard for me . When I was a kid, I was surrounded by a group of dogs, so it is a bit traumatic for me . Now everytime I see a dog, I want to hide . ”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing her so nervous, Xia Yuqing didn’t want to joke around, so she hurriedly changed the subject, “Okay, well, I won’t let Xiao Bai approach you casually in the future . However, speaking of it, Xiao Bai did you a favor today . You despise it, but aren’t you a little ungrateful?”
“Helped me? When did it help me?” Yun Xi’s eyes widened and looked at Xia Yuqing in disbelief . She only remembered that she was chased by this dog, ran around and almost fell from a tree . How could she owe this dog a favour?
“I’ve heard everything from Xiao Yuan about this morning . Although Xiao Bai was abrupt in the morning, if Xiao Bai wasn’t chasing you, how could you meet General He, and...”
Before Xia Yuqing finished her words, someone’s face was already red . Xia Yuqing couldn’t help but be surprised when she saw this . She became more curious in her heart: “Xiao Xi, you won’t really be...”
“Niang Niang!” Yun Xi shouted angrily . After Xia Yuqing’s words, she paused but blushed and added: “I...I don’t know, but I think he was pretty nice . ”
“Um...General He is nice . ” His temper is good to the extreme, so much that even if she has scammed him so many times, he would still have a smile on his face every time . That is, he’s a bit... slow .
“Xiao Xi, I remember you said at the beginning that you didn’t like beautiful men, but you like men who are domineering, handsome and upright . ” Xia Yuqing asked in a low voice as if thinking of something .
“Yeah . ” Yun Xi was startled, and nodded .
“In that case, when you were in the stronghold, why didn’t you look at the big master, instead...” In Xia Yuqing’s eyes, Wu Jun and He Wenzhong were about the same in height and body shape, except for a slight difference in personality, there was no difference . Why is it that Yun Xi’s eyebrows were never moved when Wu Jun hung out back and forth in front of Yun Xi for so long? Yet, when she met He Wenzhong, love sprouts began to show immediately? Is it really the case of a hero saving the beautiful young maiden?
Hearing Xia Yuqing compare general Wu Jun and He Wenzhong, Yun Xi curled her lips and muttered: “How can that stupid person compare with General He?”
From time to time, in the name of passing by, a few people including Li Yuan would pop by to eavesdrop . So when they heard what she said, they snorted in laughter
“Xiao Xi hasn’t even met General He a few times before and she is already helping others to speak . It’s really as the saying goes, once the kids have grown up they don’t need their mothers! The daughter who married out is like spilt water” Xia Yuqing looked up at the sky with an expression of distress . The Xiaolongbao, which hadn’t been in her hand for a long time, already had a sense of belonging to another on the first day of entering the palace .
This feeling was as if the filling in her dumpling had been taken away, leaving a thin layer of skin . Xia Yuqing, who can’t eat the filling inside, was...incredibly sad .
Although she felt sore and sorrowful in her heart, when a girl is of age she must be married off . If she was kept here and there, an animosity will be left behind . Xia Yuqing understood the truth . Anyways, Ultra Seme Lord has already been accepted by herself and she can’t turn him crooked no matter what . In order to prevent the several Da Ren’s from dying alone and staying in their empty boudoirs in the future, as the saying goes, keep the goodies within the family, she should......
This... if Xiao Bai was married out as a dowry, would the strong general be willing to receive her Xiaolongbao? Cough cough...
Xia Yuqing thought secretly in her heart, but Yun Xi was already flushed with embarrassment . She shouted in a low voice, “Qing Jie!”
“Yes?”
“...when we first met the first master, we were escaping for our lives and he was a thief who endangered our lives . ”
“...” So, the first impression is really important!
“Later, even though I knew that the master was not a wicked person, the old lady had serious opinions of me . I couldn’t get along with her, let alone her son . ”
“...” The most irreconcilable thing was the conflict between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law? If the old lady knew that she had scared away a potential girl who might become a daughter-in-law, she would definitely cry!
“Also, General He, he can cook . ”
“...” Yes, a man who can cook, wait, can cook?
“Xiao Xi, you won’t be...”
“Qing Jiejie forgot? When I was in the cottage, Qing Jiejie told me to find a man who knows how to cook in the future . Qing Jiejie also said that Qing Jiejie’s baby’s father can’t and that’s why you and the baby ended up in such a miserable state . Have you forgotten?” Yun Xi asked with an innocent look .
“...” So she was the culprit? Ah, no, this is a wonderful thing for herself . If Yunxi can really take down the strong general in the future, she must ask the general’s mom for a matchmaker’s fee!
But before that...she seems to have to deal with the ambiguous gazes behind her and...
“Oh, so Niang Niang has always been dissatisfied that the emperor cannot cook?”
“It turns out that Niang Niang often goes to the kitchen to study cooking because of this . I originally thought that the Niang Niang was trying to please the emperor... but to think that it’s like this... . Niang Niang is so pitiful . ”
“No wonder the emperor sent the palace’s best cooking maid Lu Rui to our palace . It turned out to be like this... ...”
“Yes, it must be like this, Niang Niang is so pitiful! If Sister Lu Rui married out in the future, wouldn’t the empress have nothing to eat?”
Xia Yuqing twitched her mouth and screamed in her heart . Yun Xi, this Ya Tou, how could she voice out the words that she had used to fool her at the beginning? If this was heard by the Ultra Seme Lord, she would suffer again!
“Ahem, this is just a misunderstanding . ” Xia Yuqing coughed slightly . She turned to look at the maids behind her, trying to turn the tide .
But Lu Rui met her eyes and squinted at her: “Niang Niang, to explain is to cover up . ”
“...” Wu Wu Wu... why does she suddenly feel that she was losing her place in this palace? Didn’t they say a mother’s standing is based on how precious their son was? Shouldn’t her status be higher now that she is pregnant with a baby? But look at how these girls look like wolves . Wuwuwu, Mama, the world is so scary!
“What was just said, no one is allowed to spread it out . And Xiao Xi, you... don’t talk about it again in the future, otherwise, humph, be careful when I say bad things about you in front of General He . ”
Xia Yuqing only threatened with some bluffing but Yun Xi was frightened . The girls who knew her temperament all rolled their eyes to the sky without realizing it .
Niang Niang, don’t you think it’s too late to say this now? Don’t you know that the intelligence network of Qianqing palace hall and our Xiefang palace hall are interoperable? What you said just now, I’m afraid it has already reached the emperor’s ears! With the emperor’s temperament, you can just wait for him to settle accounts with you . Therefore, it is said that rice can be eaten indiscriminately, but words can not be talked indiscriminately . Your sins were self-inflicted!
As the several girls had expected, as soon as Yun Xi’s words were spoken, the palace people in the Palace of Xiefang had already rushed away and spread the word of mouth .
Within a quarter of an hour, it reached the Palace of Qianqing and it passed into the ears of some certain people .
“Hahaha, I can’t do it . It’s so ridiculous, it turns out... that girl has such a big opinion of you! And falling to this tragic end, it turns out that she fell to this tragic end by your side . Your emperor, you as a husband have been neglecting your duty, you don’t even know how to pity and cherish jade . Those of us who know the inside story are fine, but those who don’t know may think you have tormented that girl! Let me tell you, your majesty, you should just obey her . Take the time to go to the imperial kitchen to learn from them, then cook her a table of good dishes to her liking . Make sure that she is grateful to you and will not dare to talk around in the future . Don’t be embarrassed . You just need to hide this thing . Don’t let others see it . If someone knows you have cooked before, it would only slightly harm the emperor’s image as a brilliant martial artist . Just...”
Before the long talk was finished, someone in the room gave Yan Ran a lazy look .
Although this glance was only a short moment, it was as sharp as a blade out of its sheath . Yan Ran had no doubt that if he couldn’t keep his mouth shut, he would lose his tongue!
“The Grand Tutor seems to be too idle lately . For the sake of harmony between the imperial consort and Zhen, the Grand Tutor must be willing to help Zhen spare some more time to accompany Ai Fei . As an example of a hundred officials, the Grand Tutor must be willing to help me solve problems, isn’t it?”
Yan Ran was startled, he almost choked on his own saliva: “Chen...”
“Okay, then it’s decided . Xiao Shunzi, I will go to the Imperial Study Room later to get the memorials that I haven’t approved yet . Organize it and send it to the Grand Tutor’s mansion . ”
“Yes . ”
Feng Tingye glanced at Yan Ran with a pale face, and a sneer crossed his eyes . With your weakness still in my hand, how dare you laugh at myself so blatantly . You must be tired of living! What else did he say? To personally cook to please that girl? Also talking about how no one would find out? If no one knows, how did this rumor come out now?
Knowing Xia Yuqing’s temperament and knowing that the group of Nu Bis in Xia Yuqing’s palace were just like their master, masters of gossip, Feng Tingye had no doubt that if he cooked personally like Yan Ran said, once he just stepped into the imperial dining room, the news would go flying! Hmph, it’s not so easy to mess with him . In the end, we don’t know who is messing with who!
“Wait!” Yan Ran exclaimed, stopping Xiao Shunzi from heading to the Imperial Study . He spoke with a flattering smile, “As a court official, Chen should know his position and not mix his personal affairs . This memorial is very important, and it is more appropriate for the emperor to personally review it . Chen cannot afford to handle this . ”
Feng Tingye’s expression remained unchanged, “Grand Tutor’s words are too much . With the friendship that we have supported since childhood, how can it be swayed by a few memorials? Grand Tutor also just said that I should guard against those who go beyond power and seek personal gains . Since the Grand Tutor is here sharing worries with Zhen, how can it be compared with those small officials?”
Feng Tingye went down with a high hat . If it was an ordinary person, they long would have nothing to say back . Unfortunately, this certain person wasn’t an average person .
Listening to Feng Tingye’s dignified words, Yan Ran only snorted back: “Huh, don’t say it so nicely, what kind of friendship do we have from a young age? At a critical moment, you’ll call it friendship and come to us . But when the troubles are on us, you’ll slice off this friendship . Saying that we’re so close, aren’t you afraid that the girl will misunderstand again!”
Shao Zitong sneered while listening to someone’s self-confessed complaint, and looked up at Feng Tingye, whose face was somber in the upper seat . He sighed without sincerity . It wasn’t that he didn’t want to help, but some people were anxious to kill themselves . What can be done?
Sure enough, as soon as Yan Ran had finished complaining, he could hear that the person in the seat did not refute those words: “This matter will be settled like this . The king can’t go back on his words . If the Grand Tutor refuses, he will be resisting Zhen’s decree . ”
Yan Ran’s face was damaged . Knowing that there was no chance to recover, he grumbled and replied: “This minister abides by the order . ”
Shao Zitong was amused by Yan Ran’s bitterness . He sneered and interjected: “This minister also felt that the Grand Tutor’s proposal was pretty good . A man who can wash his hands and make soup for the one he loves has no reason not to be able to capture the heart of a beauty . ”
Before he could finish his words, Feng Tingye glanced over: “Shang Shu also wants to share my worries?”
“Forget it, although Wei Chen is a Shang Shu, he is a Shang Shu of the Ministry of War . Memorials and those kinds of things are more suitable to be left to informed literary people like the Grand Tutor especially since it is regarded as an important task . ” Shao Zitong stated it like this, but looked at Yan Ran with an obvious gloat .
Yan Ran got angry, but Shao Zitong left him with a sentence: “Those who are capable, have to work harder . It has been difficult, Grand Tutor!” This abruptly blocked any replies .
Seeing Shao Zitong’s slight, Feng Tingye withdrew his gaze and, ignoring the fighting between the two below, silently took the brush on the side and dipped it with ink .
Hmph, telling Zhen to learn cooking? What if all men in the world can cook? They can conquer those ingredients, but Zhen can manipulate those countless people who conquered these ingredients to conquer the stomachs of those I love . Which one is higher? Is it necessary to say it clearly?
At the same time, a certain someone didn’t know her words had been passed on to her family’s beast . Furthermore, it had successfully aroused their arrogant side . As a result, Xia Yuqing, who was about to face disaster, was still standing with joy at this moment at the window of her bedroom, taking the letter clinging to the mechanism bird’s feet .
“Xiang Er, that person still has a conscience, she finally knows to write to me . ” Xia Yuqing couldn’t wait to untie the ribbon tied to the letter and said in delight .
Since Liu Yixiang went to Xia country, Xia Yuqing has only received one letter from her asking her to take good care of Zhang Sunshi and Feng Tingye . Not long afterwards, Xia Yuqing was kidnapped, and she never wrote to Liu Yixiang again . Now she is finally looking forward to a letter from Liu Yixiang . How can Xia Yuqing not be excited?
Hearing Xia Yuqing’s words, the girls who were tidying up the room were startled, not knowing how to speak .
In the end, Li Yuan, who stood at the forefront, fell to the deadly attack by her sisters . She was pushed out and met Xia Yuqing’s puzzled gaze . She coughed and said, “That... Niang Niang, actually Miss Liu had sent you a few letters, but you were not in the palace at the time . So the servants worried that Miss Liu was in a hurry, they took a pretentious look at the contents of them . ”
“And?” Looking at the embarrassed expressions of several girls, Xia Yuqing couldn’t help having an ominous premonition . She wouldn’t have written something forbidden in her letter, right? Oh no, what can I do to save you, my integrity!
“In fact, it’s nothing, just Miss Liu said... that she and the eldest prince are married and are doing well now, please don’t worry about her . ” Li Yuan’s eyes looked up and down, left and right, but she didn’t look at Xia Yuqing .
Xia Yuqing glanced suspiciously at her: “Really?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Really . ” Li Yuan’s face was clearly guilty .
Xia Yuqing twisted her eyebrows, turned her head to look at Lu Rui on the side: “Lu Rui, you speak . What is written in Xiang Er’s letter besides this?”
Understanding Xiang Er and her eldest royal brother, if those two people actually became happily married then there must be something wrong!
Seeing Xia Yuqing’s gaze shifted to her, Lu Rui’s expression changed slightly . She said in embarrassment, “Actually...it’s nothing, it’s just...”
“Just?”
Lu Rui took a deep breath and spoke without fear of death: “Just at the wedding banquet, Miss Liu and the third princesses of Xia country broke into a fight . Several guests who attended the wedding banquet stepped forward to mediate and the result...”
“What was the result?” My God, Xiang Er is so stubborn! As soon as she arrived in Xia country, she had reportedly said there were only some trivial circumstances and was in a bit of an angst with the spoiled third princess . But causing a ruckus at the wedding? How can she have missed that event! Transmigration god, please replay!
“As a result, Miss Liu and the third princess accidentally gave the fifth prince of Xia country who had just returned to the court...er, the fifth prince might not be able to conceive offspring . ” This kind of thing was finally said from the mouth of the girl in the boudoir . It was too embarrassing, so when Lu Rui finally stumbled and finished speaking, her small face was as red as blood .
Xia Yuqing understood and she had a dull silence for a while before she could have a reaction .
“Xiang Er and my third royal sister beat up my fifth royal brother?”
The girls were silent for a moment, and nodded shyly .
“Has Xiang Er received any punishment?” Xia Yuqing suppressed the urge to laugh upright and asked in a low voice .
Although this fifth royal brother was not as favored as the eldest royal brother and the fourth royal brother, he was still a member of the royal family . To cut off his grandchildren, Xia country’s royal family shouldn’t just let it go, right?
“Ms . Liu is okay . I heard that at that time, the fifth royal prince wanted to harass Ms . Liu, but this was discovered by the third princess . Without a word, the third princess went straight up and kicked the fifth prince, then Ms . Liu went up to add two more kicks . As a result, the fifth prince ...... when the emperor wanted to pursue it, the eldest royal prince protected Miss Liu, so in the end......they let the matter rest . ”
“...... “She did not expect that her fifth royal brother would turn out to be a lecher, and also an idiotic lecher . It’s not good to molest anyone, but to try to molest Xiang Er, he really must not want to live . No wonder it ended up with such a painful end .
Thinking of this, Xia Yuqing somehow remembered what Feng Tingye had said at the beginning about those people who had gone to the Liu family to propose marriage . They all ended up with misfortune . It seems as if the Ultra Seme Lord’s words were correct . Xiang Er was a summoning system for men, whoever she encountered would become unlucky . Compared with the men who had brutally become cannon fodder, Xia Yuqing has to admit that her brother was very lucky . Amen...
“Yes, besides that, Miss Liu also mentioned one thing . She said that the fourth prince of Xia country was originally inseparable from the fifth prince, but once he learned that the fifth prince could not conceive, he gradually estranged from him . ” When Lu Rui talked about this, she was a little confused . In the royal family, isn’t it normal for brothers to hit a person when they’re down, why did Miss Liu specifically mention it and said so in such an... impassioned manner!
The fact that Lu Rui didn’t understand did not mean that Xia Yuqing didn’t understand . After listening to what Lu Rui said, Xia Yuqing already knew the message Liu Yixiang wanted to convey .
It turns out... it turns out that not only is the eldest royal brother and second royal brother a pair, but fourth royal brother and fifth royal brother were a pair too? Moreover, this pair is still the most thunderous in the legend... scum Gong and lowly Shou*!
* Gong = seme, shou = uke
Fourth brother joined forces with Fifth brother for the throne . Fourth brother was greedy for the throne, and was unwilling to accept the affection of the fifth brother and cruelly rejected him . Fifth brother was distraught and drenched in sorrow at Xia Mingyuan’s banquet . Moreover, he formed a plan when he saw the couple who were about to be married . He stepped forward to harass Xiang Er to arouse the jealousy of fourth brother, but did not expect to find the wrong person, and a mishap became an eternal sorrow .
Fifth brother failed to arouse Fourth brother’s jealousy and he ruined his own sexual blessing for the second half of his life . Fourth brother saw that fifth brother had lost the ability to conceive heirs and was no longer favored, so he could not help him fulfill his long-cherished wish, thus he cruelly abandoned the seriously injured fifth brother!
Ahhhhh! This kind of cruel brotherly, sadistic plot is really shocking and stimulating to people . It just makes people want to stop, but can’t . Every minute, one would want to cut their belly open, torture the heart and body . Ahhh!
A few girls looked at their master’s face in fear for a while . White, green, and black again, they shuddered . Did Niang Niang bump into something dirty*?
* dirty as in supernatural/ ghosts etc; something unlucky
“Uuuuu...” Xia Yuqing’s mouth collapsed and her eyes filled with tears, “I miss Xiang Er, I want to go to Xia Country . ”
Now that the Ultrra Seme Lord and the few Da Ren knew her temperament and would take a detour to avoid her, her palace was growing grass . So boring, hm, hm, days with no affairs to watch means no happiness and no fortune!
The girls were all panicked when they heard this, thinking that Xia Yuqing was homesick after reading Liu Yixing’s letter . They hurriedly stepped forward and coaxed: “Niang Niang, don’t worry, there are two or three more months before you give birth . Once you give birth to the little prince and after you recuperate, since the emperor loves you so much, as long as you speak up, the emperor will take you back to Xia country . It won’t be too late to go then . ”
Before the few people had finished coaxing her, they saw someone rushing in from the outside shouting anxiously: “Niang Niang, it’s not good, it’s not good, it’s not good . Lord Lu is back . ”
With a scream like a bell at midnight, Xia Yuqing hurriedly collected the tears from her eyes and asked in a daze, “Lord Lu?”
“Lord Lu has returned to court?” Lu Rui, the only one who knew who Lord Lu was, turned white . She murmured in amazement .
Cui Er and Li Yuan nearby couldn’t help but twist their eyebrows when they saw this, and asked in a low voice, “Lu Rui, do you know who this Lord Lu is?”
Lu Rui turned her head and glanced at Xia Yuqing . She muffled: “Lord Lu was the most respected veteran of the previous dynasty . He not only knew astronomy and geography, but also was proficient in divination . He is a well-known secretary in the previous emperor’s period . ”
“It’s just a respected minister . What is it, what scares you?”
“Of course Lord Lu himself is nothing, but Lord Lu has a granddaughter who is eighteen this year . ”
“...” Xia Yuqing looked at Lu Rui and suddenly felt that something was wrong .
“In the past, Lord Lu had made a divination for his granddaughter and the hexagram shown was... his granddaughter will be the future queen of Ye Kingdom . ”
“...”
