Quick Wear: The host is a jerk again and runs away

Chapter 217 Princess Qingcheng 17

It was late at night, and Jun Liche came to a secluded place wearing a light nightgown.

As soon as he stepped in, a ghostly shadow appeared beside him. "My Lord."

"Yeah." Jun Liche lowered his voice, and then the black shadow pressed on a stone sculpture, and a passage with cold light opened up.

After they stepped in, the passage was closed again.

Jun Liche stood on the high platform, looking at the nearly ten thousand ghostly figures below with deep eyes.

These are the shadow riders he trained in recent years. Each of them can defeat a hundred at a time, and ten thousand shadow riders can defeat an army of one million.

Princess, if you don't behave, what will A Che do to you...

With his current power, it would be easy and effortless for him to overthrow the rule of Daxia.

But that was her home, and the one on the throne was her respected father.

He couldn't do anything to her home, and he didn't want to see her sad.

Princess, choose Ache, not that useless crybaby.

……

Half a year passed in a flash, and Xueyi's coming-of-age ceremony arrived as scheduled.

The party Emperor Wen held for her was exceptionally grand, and Xia Shaoheng and the two jealous men also prepared with great care.

After the Jiji Ceremony, she can get married...

In other words, she can choose her own prince consort, or marry the person she likes.

Early that morning, Xueyi was pulled out of bed by Ruhua and started to clean up.

"Princess, raise your hand..."

"Princess, you are about to fall to the ground..."

"Princess, don't sleep. Your coming-of-age ceremony is about to begin..."

Xueyi feels that being forced to get up early after staying up late is always the most painful thing, no doubt about it.

She closed her eyes and was tossed around by Ruhua for a while, until she changed into a very heavy palace dress. Finally, she was forced to open her eyes and walk towards the banquet hall.

Everyone in the hall had already taken their seats.

With a notification, the figure they had been thinking about appeared before them.

"Princess Anxia is here——"

The visitor was wearing a bright red Cantonese embroidered Baixian Palace costume, dotted with blurred flowers and auspicious clouds.

She wore a purple gauze dress with nine phoenixes painted in gold, which looked like they were about to fly. Her long black hair fell like a waterfall, set off by a gold hairpin and embellished with beads and tassels, making her look gorgeous and noble. On her arm was a soft gold gauze with silver threads faintly visible, the workmanship was exquisite and priceless.

This set of pearl hairpins and palace dress was prepared by the Queen herself for Xue Yi, and also represents her recognition of Xue Yi.

Wearing red is an honor enjoyed exclusively by the Queen.

She shared this honor with Xue Yi, a child whose true identity she had long known.

Everyone's eyes were drawn to the figure, and gradually stopped in the hall following her.

Xue Yi bowed gracefully and said, "Greetings to Father, Emperor, and Mother."

Emperor Wen and the Empress waved their hands in relief, "No need to be polite."

After Xue Yi stood up, she walked a total of fifteen steps and then stopped and knelt down.

Her biological mother has passed away, so it is the Queen who should put on the hairpin for her.

The queen was dignified and graceful. She walked down the steps slowly as the officials chanted the blessing until she stood in front of Xue Yi.

"On the day of the auspicious month, it is Shen'er's service. Respect for your majesty and Shushen's virtue. My eyebrows will live for thousands of years and you will be blessed forever."

She stood there, then took the phoenix hairpin handed to her by the official and pinned it in Xue Yi's hair.

The phoenix is ​​a hairpin that only the queen can wear, but no one present dared to question it.

Princess Anxia is now the most honorable princess in the entire Daxia, and is deeply loved by His Majesty and the Queen.

She is also very close to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and her playmate is Master Xie, the Prime Minister's son.

In this way, no one dared to look down on or question what she had achieved.

Among the people present, only Xia Shaoheng had a very passionate look towards the phoenix hairpin.

He selected the designs and patterns and personally supervised the printing of them.

After she put on the phoenix hairpin, she would be his queen...

The queen helped her up and smiled lovingly, "Our An Xia has grown into a big girl."

Xue Yi blushed and looked shy.

Emperor Wen also felt happier than before, and the pain from his illness seemed to be alleviated by his smile.

He didn't have much time left, and the one he was most worried about was An Xia...

Xue Yi followed the instructions of the official and sat at her seat. The banquet began and everyone presented gifts.

"Your Majesty, this is the top-grade night-shining pearl that I present to Princess Anxia..."

"These are the nine golden Buddhas I presented to you. They can ward off disasters and resolve difficulties..."

"I present to you a jade ruyi of the finest quality..."

"Your son presents my sister with an eight-treasure colored glass lamp..."

……

Until the end, Xia Shaoheng, Jun Liche and Xie Yunya did not present any gifts.

The best gift they wanted to give to her personally.

……

After the coming-of-age ceremony, Xueyi was a little tipsy, and was then supported by Ruhua back to Rouhua Palace.

But it was obvious that the three men had no intention of letting her go.

Xueyi's little face was rosy. It was spring now, and although it had become much warmer, the breeze was still a little cool.

She stumbled into the chair and drank the sobering soup that Ruhua handed her.

At the same time, the three men stopped at the entrance of the hall.

Xia Shaoheng was the first to break the silence, "Master Xie, aren't you going back to the Prime Minister's Residence? Li Che is a palace servant, why doesn't he go back to rest at this late hour?"

"Nan Rou doesn't want to see you now, you should go back."

Xia Shaoheng was dressed in a golden robe, he was tall, his black hair was tied with a purple gold crown, and his face looked gloomy.

The future emperor already has the domineering aura of an emperor who rules the world.

Xie Yunya raised the corners of his lips, his tone was yin and yang, and his voice was soft, "Your Highness, you are not Arou, how do you know that she doesn't want to see me?"

His voice is green and slightly immature. Unlike the magnetic voices of Xia Shaoheng and Jun Liche, he has a unique boyish voice.

But this voice made the two people beside him look unhappy at the same time.

Damn it, that’s how it was, every time it made the girls in the hall feel distressed and concerned.

You’re already old enough to get married, why are you still pretending?

Xue Yi was watching everything outside the palace calmly. What's going on?

She stood up and walked out of the hall, just in time to bump into Xie Yunya's eyes which were still filled with pride.

Xie Yunya suddenly froze, biting his lower lip lightly, aggrieved: "Arou... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said you don't want to see me."

Seeing the man continue to act, Xue Yi smiled in her heart but shook her head.

"How could that be? Of course I want to see Brother Yunya."

Xia Shaoheng's face immediately became even gloomier, "Nan Rou, come in."

After saying that, the man walked into the hall first, leaving behind only an angry back.

Xue Yi smiled and said, "You guys wait outside the palace for a while. Brother Shao Heng should have something to tell me."

Xie Yunya pouted, looking resentful.

“I have one too~”

"Be good, wait a moment." Xue Yi touched Xie Yunya's head soothingly, and then went straight into the hall without caring about Jun Liche.

007 watched helplessly as his darkening value rose by another five points.

Its owner is really jumping on Jun Liche's minefield...

Ruhua had already been sent out by Xia Shaoheng. The man was sitting on a chair, playing with a phoenix hairpin in his hand.

This is a pair of phoenix hairpins that match the one Xue Yi is wearing on her head. He had someone make them specially for her early in the morning.

Xue Yi walked in and sat down on the chair next to Xia Shaoheng.

"Brother Shaoheng, do you have something to say to Anxia?"

Xia Shaoheng just stared at her, his eyes were as sharp as torches and deep.

Not only do I have things to say, I also have things to do.

He stood up and put the phoenix hairpin in his hand on the bun on the other side. Looking at the perfectly matched pair of phoenix hairpins, he smiled with satisfaction.

"After she reaches the age of 15, Nan Rou's marriage will be decided."

Xue Yi raised her head and touched the phoenix hairpin on her head. She smiled shyly.

"Yes, my father asked me tonight who my favorite person is..."

Looking at the shy appearance of the girl, Xia Shaoheng felt resentful.

Two years ago, when Nan Yue came to visit, she was proposed to by Jun Xingzhi at the banquet but she refused. She even declared in public that she had someone she liked and would not marry anyone else.

God knows he was so jealous that he almost went crazy after hearing it?

He was very sure that the person in her heart was not her.

Even the palace maid who recently topped the list of the National Academy was much closer to her than he was to her.

For the past three years, he has been pampering her as his future wife.

All the good things, articles, novelties and expensive fabrics were given to her.

He also expressed his feelings to his mother and revealed her identity.

But as they spent time together day by day, he could discover the girl's preferences and exceptions towards Xie Yunya.

She had clearly made an appointment with him to go strolling in the Imperial Garden together, but as soon as Xie Yunya made a fuss, she immediately turned down his invitation.

She had clearly agreed that she would come to see him when he graduated, but she didn't come when Xie Yunya kept pestering her and started crying.

She devoted herself to coaxing that annoying man.

We are both men, how could he not see it?

It was obvious that Xie Yunya did it on purpose. He knew that Nan Rou would become soft-hearted if he cried, so he always pretended to be so aggrieved and shy.

He was riding a horse and shooting arrows at the horse field, and the unbridled and flamboyant manner in which he fired six arrows at once had nothing to do with his weak and aggrieved appearance just now!

You are really good at pretending, you only know how to pretend!

But Nan Rou just happened to like that, and he had thought about following suit.

But due to his status as a crown prince and his proud character, he simply couldn't win her favor by pretending to be pitiful and weak.

That fellow Xie Yunya is even more annoying than that palace maid who looks extraordinary!

What a despicable man, sooner or later he will expose this man's true face in front of Nan Rou!

All the talk about being weak, wronged, thin and in need of care is fake!

He thought that he was a man of both civil and military talents, and full of vigor and vitality, and many beautiful girls in the capital wanted to marry him.

"Nan Rou, can you tell me who you want to choose as your consort?" He spoke in a low and hoarse voice, suppressing his jealousy and uneasiness.

Xue Yi did not hesitate, she raised her head and her eyes were bright.

"Of course it's Brother Yunya! Brother Yunya and I have known each other since childhood and have been together for ten years."

"If we really have to choose a prince consort, Nan Rou still likes Brother Yun Ya!"

The girl's voice was filled with undisguised excitement and joy, and Xia Shaoheng's heart was broken when he heard it.

He also guessed it was Xie Yunya, after all, he was so good at coaxing her.

Xia Shaoheng narrowed his eyes and smiled, but his tone was unnatural, "Nan Rou, Brother Shaoheng doesn't want you to marry him, you should think about it more."

"It's getting late. I'm going back to the East Palace first."

Xueyi stood up and was eager to see him off, but Xia Shaoheng waved his hand and said, "No need. I'll call Xie Yunya in."

After saying that, he walked out of the hall. A breeze blew by, and a chill hit his face.

He couldn't stay any longer, he didn't want to hear her express her love for another man.
