Chapter 128: The Princess's Worries!

  "Thank you, thank you..."

  The two stood up, and Hu Mu was exceptionally excited, with tears streaming down her face, thanking Xiao Yun non-stop.

  This was the first time someone thanked him so sincerely, and even knelt down to thank himself. This is parental love. This scene moved Xiao Yun's heart.

  "I knew Brother Xiao would definitely make it!" Ye Lan came over, her face full of joy, and from start to finish, she had never doubted Xiao Yun's strength.

  Xiao Yun smiled lightly, anyway, it was worth the expectation.

  "Alright, stop crying here. Come and unlock the iron chain on Xiaohuzi's body. Guihua, Xiaohuzi is frail, you must take good care of him." Ye Bai said.

  "Hmm!"

  The tiger mother nodded with tears in her eyes, and until this moment, her heart had not calmed down.

  Ye Bai fed Xiao Hu a pellet of medicine, and then left the room with Xiao Yun and others. With Xiao Yun's spell, they no longer had to worry about threats from the magic insects in the future. At this time, all of them were extremely excited and wanted to ask Xiao Yun many questions, so they took him to Ye Changqing's mansion.

  ——

  Dragon City, Imperial Palace.

  "How dare you, a group of beasts, to think that the Great Xia is without a ruler!" In the grand hall, Ji Yunhao was exceptionally furious, and all the civil and military officials below were trembling with fear.

  A few days ago, I sent someone to Mount Tianmo to deliver a letter. So many days have passed and there has been no response at all. Eagle Bai Mei didn't even bother with him, so where does that leave the face of this monarch?

  "Your Majesty, perhaps it's been too peaceful for too long, even a group of barbarians dare to look down on our Great Xia. I request that we take military action against the Feathered Tribe. If this wind is not suppressed, others will think our Great Xia is weak and incompetent!" A robust officer with thick eyebrows and big eyes stepped forward to report.

  "Your Majesty, I think it's not advisable. Although the Demon Clan is not too powerful among the various forces, once war breaks out, it will inevitably lead to labor and financial losses. Not to mention that it's just for a single disciple of the Tianyin Sect to go to war with the Demon Clan, this move is quite absurd. The other countries won't just sit back and watch our Great Xia provoke a war either. Please reconsider, Your Majesty." An old official said.

  "Your Majesty, the Grand Tutor's words are not to be taken lightly. The Mo Tian Ridge looks down on our Great Xia, this is no longer a matter of one disciple of the Yin-Yang Sect, but concerns the face of our Great Xia. If we do not have any strategy to counter them, will it not become a laughing stock for others?" The military officer from earlier spoke, his expression extremely agitated, clearly a warmonger.

  "General Shi..." The old man shook his beard.

  "Stop arguing!"

  Yan Yunhao shouted, and the hall immediately fell silent.

  His face was gloomy, and Ji Yunhao's heart was also very difficult. According to his original idea, the strength of the Feather Tribe was much weaker than that of Dashu. He sent a letter, and if Eagle White Brow knew what was good for him, he would return the person, and this matter would be settled. If not, at least there would be some response, and after a few verbal sparring matches, it would be over. But unexpectedly, Eagle White Brow didn't even bother to respond, completely ignoring him. How could this not make him angry?

  But if we really go to war with the Yu tribe, and not to mention that the reason for starting a war is not justified, and it will definitely be opposed by most of our subjects. After all, who doesn't want to live in peace?

  Whether to fight or not, it's really hard to decide. Xī Yǔn Huáng was like he had been punched in the gut by Yīng Bái Méi, and he felt suffocated, wanting to give Yīng Bái Méi a show of his skills, otherwise, it would be hard to vent the depression in his heart.

  "Royal brother, what's your take on this matter?" Ji Yunhao's gaze fell upon Ji Yunwen.

  These past few days, Ji Yunwen successfully broke through the Musician Boundary, and he also looked a lot more spirited. Just now, he had been quietly standing by without saying a word. When Ji Yunhao asked him a question, he hastily stepped forward two steps.

  "Your Majesty!"

  Yuan Wen Zheng was about to speak when a sharp voice accompanied the arrival of a eunuch, who walked in with quick steps and knelt down at the foot of the stairs.

  "What's wrong?"

  Right in the middle of discussing politics with the ministers, a small eunuch dared to come and disturb them. However, looking at the small eunuch's flustered expression, it was likely that there was some urgent matter. Ji Yunhao furrowed his brow, temporarily suppressing the anger in his heart.

  The little eunuch did not dare to raise his head, "Your Majesty, envoys from Yan and Zhou are seeking an audience outside!"

  "Huh?"

  Yan Yunhao was first startled, then puzzled. Yan and Zhou were both located in the central plains, being major powers at the heart of Tianle Continent. How could they suddenly come to Dashu? And what a coincidence that they would arrive together?

  "Hurry up!"

  Both were major powers and could not tolerate Ji Yunhuang's slowness, so they hastily ordered the eunuch to go and summon someone.

  ——

  Imperial Garden

  Several osmanthus trees were in full bloom, and the air was filled with a strong fragrance that made people feel refreshed and delighted. In a pavilion, a young girl dressed in luxurious palace attire sat beside a stone table, propping her cheek with one hand, occasionally sighing sorrowfully, with a worried expression on her face, as if she had some troubles on her mind.

  "Yo yo yo, Princess, hiding here alone, what are you thinking about, so absorbed?" A voice came from the side, startling Xī Fēng Yuè out of her reverie.

  She turned her head and saw Xiang Ye walking towards her with a flirtatious smile on his face.

  "Older brother!"

  Xīn Yuè called out in a listless tone, then turned back around and continued her sighs of discontent, looking like she had the weight of the world on her shoulders.

  Ji Liu Feng sat down beside the stone table, staring at Ji Xiang Yue for a moment, "Usually when I see you, you're always laughing and joking around, why are you so serious today?"

  "Don't talk to me, I'm busy!" Ji Xiangyue pouted, her face full of displeasure. In the entire Daxia Imperial Palace, there were probably only a few people who dared to speak to the crown prince in such a tone.

  Ji Liu Feng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "What's going on that's got the princess so annoyed? Could it be that she's thinking of some young nobleman? Quick, tell your brother about it!"

  "Everyone is about to cry and you're still making fun of them!" Ji Xiangyue looked up at Ji Liufeng, her expression as if she was on the verge of tears.

  Seeing Xianyue like this, Xiangliu Feng also panicked and quickly put away his joke. "What's wrong with you? Has someone bullied you? Tell your imperial brother, I'll help you get revenge!"

  "Someone is bullying me!" Ji Xiangyue said.

  "Who?"

  Ji Liu furrowed his brow, he and Ji Xiangyue were siblings born to the Empress. In this palace, who didn't know that the Seventh Princess was one of the most favored by Emperor Xia? Who dared to bully even the Seventh Princess?

  "It's Father Emperor!" Ji Xiangyue said.

  "Ji Liu Feng heard the words and his expression suddenly stiffened on his face, 'Uh? Father Emperor?'"

  Xiang Yue nodded, "You help me vent my anger!"

  Ji Liu Feng couldn't help but smile wryly, "How did Father Emperor bully you?"

  Xī Xiǎo Yuè gave Xī Liú Fēng a white eye, "He doesn't want me anymore, he wants to marry me off!"

  "Huh!" Ji Liu Feng paused for a moment, then snapped back to attention. "You're referring to the matter of the envoys from Da Yan and Da Zhou coming to propose an alliance today? Has Father Emperor made a decision already?"

  "Father Emperor let me choose one myself, but what's with that Flame Country prince and Zhou Country prince? I haven't even seen them before, who knows what they look like? I'm not willing to marry anyway!"

  "That is to say, the Emperor has not made a decision yet?" Ji Liu Feng said, he knew that during this morning's court session, envoys from Yan and Zhou had come to propose a marriage alliance, but he hadn't expected Ji Xiang Yue to find out so quickly.

  "Both the Great Flame Nation and the Great Zhou Nation are major powers in the Central Plains, so it's not like Father can just reject them outright. And yet, out of all the princesses in the palace, why did he have to choose me?"

  "Who made the imperial sister's name spread far and wide, even the countries of Yan and Zhou in the Central Plains couldn't help but be moved." Ji Liu Feng said with a smile.

  "You're annoying everyone to death and you still have the nerve to speak sarcastically!" Ji Xiangyue said displeased.

  Xiang Liu Feng leaned in close to Xiang Yan Yue and asked, "You really don't want to get married?"

  "Of course I don't want to marry, the Central Plains are so far away, what kind of dog prince, cat prince, I haven't seen any of them, who knows if they're beautiful or ugly." Ji Xiangyue was full of resentment.

  "Alas, Seventh Sister, we are in the imperial family, some things are just like this, and we can't help ourselves!" Ji Liu Feng shook his head and sighed.

  "I don't want to get married so quickly, if I do get married it has to be with someone I like. Just casually finding someone to marry is not for me, I'd rather die!" said Xiāo Yuè Yuè.

  "If you really don't want to marry, it's not like there's no way!" Ji Liu Feng said.

  "What? Brother Huang, what method do you have?" Upon hearing this, Xi Yan Yue's eyes lit up instantly. Her brother had always been clever and would definitely have a way to rescue her.
