to let her own precious daughter marry into the Ye family with her own eyesEven though she was strict with her daughter on a daily basis, deep down she loved her dearly. There was no way she could be...Upon hearing that the emperor wished to see Mo Yunchen, Mo Yunjing and An Xuetang instinctively glanced at each other. Neither of them spoke, but turned and walked inside together.
A group of people went to the reception hall, and the emperor directly sat on the main seat and commanded in a cold voice, "Bring Mo Yunchen here to see me."
Mò Yún Jǐng stood motionless, while An Xuě Táng suddenly laughed.
In such a tense atmosphere, An Xue Tang's laughter was really out of place, making the emperor's anger rise.
I saw the emperor's eyebrows furrowed together, his eyes flashing with a blade-like sharpness as he glared at An Xue Tang and gritted out, "What are you laughing at"
"Father, wouldn't you forget that Mo Yunchen's life is now in his daughter-in-law's hands"
"What do you mean"
"That means exactly what it says. Mo Yunchen is the son-in-law I acquired in exchange for Nianyun City, so anyone who wants to see him has to go through me, including your Majesty."
"!"
The emperor's face contorted with rage, like a furious lion. It's a shame that such a display might frighten others, but An Xue Tang didn't bat an eyelid.
"An Xuetang, do you think you're too big for your britches You truly believe you can keep the position of Northern Frontier Princess without my permission"
An Xuetang smiled, "Father King, you didn't agree before, didn't I also become this Princess"
Having said that, An Xue Tang suddenly revealed a murderous aura. Her icy eyes stared at the emperor, "Father King, you've gone out of your way to pick on our Beijiang王府 twice now. Do you really think we are easy to bully"
The Emperor was surprised by her transformation. Such a woman truly opened his eyes. At this moment, he was not so angry anymore, but his probing gaze fell on An Xuetang, and he gradually regained his composure. When he spoke, he was no longer so confrontational:
"I merely wished to see Mo Yunchen. Why are you accusing me You, on the other hand, have no right to prevent me from seeing my own son."
“If it were another time, and Father had said this, perhaps I wouldn't have intervened. But, Father, shouldn't we recount what you did to Your brother Now that Your brother has finally managed to survive, why does Father still relentlessly pursue him”
"Do you think I would be unkind to him"
An Xuetang really wants to ask him if he understands what "everyone knows the heart of Sima Zhao" means.
But I'm too lazy to argue with him right now. She said calmly, "Father, you don't need to say any more. I won't let you see your brother."
The emperor let out a cold snort, "An Xuetang, do you know the crime of defying the imperial decree"
"What does it matter if you know, and what does it matter if you don't"
The emperor instantly slapped the table in anger, "Audacity! Who gave An Xuetang the guts to speak to a ruler like this"
Only the Emperor, Mo Yunjing, and An Xuetang remained in the room. An Xuetang no longer bothered to give the Emperor face. She gave a cold smile and said slowly:
"Father, there's no one here. You don't have to put on airs in front of me. My strength... is my confidence."
The Emperor had never imagined that a woman would dare to speak to him like this. At this moment, an unstoppable anger flashed in his eyes.
"An Xuetang, however, continued without a care, "Father, haven't you been trying to find out what kind of weapons our Northern Border Army used to bring down the Great Yue Kingdom overnight To be honest, those were weapons I specially designed. As long as I give the order, not just the Great Yue Kingdom, even the capital city could fall into my hands. Do you believe me, Father"
"!"
An Xuetang's words could be said to be extremely rebellious. To dare speak such words in front of the emperor was unprecedented in history.
The Emperor was almost furious. His trembling hand pointed at An Xuetang, speechless for a long time.
An Xue Tang just met the emperor's angry eyes, without a shred of fear. What she said was indeed the truth; with gunpowder, she could practically run rampant in this backward era.
If she weren't hindered by the lack of materials to make explosives, she wouldn't have to go through such a tedious back-and-forth with the emperor.
If she had enough explosives, she would have ordered her troops to capture a city from the Heavenly Domination Empire first, letting that dog emperor truly feel the power she and Mo Yunjing possess!
By then, she would see if the emperor dared to treat her and Mo Yunjing with such an attitude again.
Just as the atmosphere turned frigid, a eunuch who often attended the emperor rushed in, his face pale with panic. "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened."
The emperor was already furious with An Xue Tang, and this eunuch's intrusion only fueled his anger.
"Your Majesty, it's bad! The two generals have been... bitten to pieces!"
The emperor clenched his fists, “What’s going on”
The eunuch hadn't even had time to explain when a large, imposing figure strode in, with traces of blood on its lips.
The emperor is not a fool, what else could he not understand at this time What shocked them even more was that the large insect walked straight to An Xuetang's side and nudged her calf with its head.
An Xuetang immediately squatted down and smiled as she rubbed its head, "How did you get yourself into this state You're so dirty, go have Yunliu take you to wash up."
After An Xuetang finished speaking, the big purple turned its head and let out a soft woof before actually turning around and leaving.
It was as if it could understand human speech. The emperor and his eunuchs were speechless for a long time. The emperor couldn't help but wonder who An Xue Tang really was
She had just said that the secret weapon belonged to her, and he was still dubious about it. But now, seeing how she interacted with the giant creature, he didn't know why, but he suddenly believed her.
Believe her, she really has the ability.
Mo Yunjing didn't speak the entire time, but just standing there gave An Xuetang the confidence to 'act wickedly'.
The emperor was furious and shocked, but Mo Yunjing didn't care at all.
At this moment, the emperor's fist clenched and unclenched, his mind racing with countless thoughts. However, when he pictured that person's bloodthirsty eyes, he suddenly felt that if An Xue Tang truly possessed such abilities, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
"Thus, the emperor suddenly burst into two loud laughs and praised An Xuetang, saying, 'You truly are worthy of being the North Border Princess of Tianba Country, you have guts! You deserve the title of princess.'"
"!"
An Xuetang frowned. This emperor's attitude changed so quickly, was he sick
Mo Yunjing was also a bit puzzled. He had already prepared himself for a confrontation with his father today, but what on earth was his father doing
"Only hearing the emperor continue, "Today's events I was just having a little joke with you all. As for those two generals being injured, it was their own doing running around recklessly. In the future, no one should ever mention this again."
An Xue Tang pursed her lips, this emperor's face was full of scheming, what did he want to door An Xuetang, her daughter wouldn't know what kind of difficulties she would face.An Xuetang shook her head slightly. She got up and personally went over to help Hou Fuzi sit down, saying, "He rememb...
