After seeing his son and Xiao lie finished with his affairs, the emperor stood up and faced all the guests present
" Thank you for coming to celebrate my daughter's birthday party
On this occasion I announced miss xiao lie as the future crown princess" the emperor said
Everyone looked surprised and disappointed
Many noble men wanted to try approaching xiao lie
Although her face may not be as pretty as she looks, but given how powerful the girl is of course everyone wants to be
While the ladies of the noble ladies were also disappointed, they were already decorated and presented themselves as best as possible but never glimpsed even by the crown prince
Amongst everyone present there were three girls who were staring at xiao lie with fury
two of them were the daughters of the prime minister and finance minister, both of whom were angry that the crown prince had refused outright the election of the crown princess and had directly chosen the girl of the commoners
Although he was rich but still he came from filthy blood, not holy noble blood, thought the two of them
The other is Jin Hua, a cousin of xiao lie himself
Jin Hua thought with him being the fiance of a noble young master his status would be higher than that of his cousin, but it turned out that now, he had instead crawled much higher than the status of an ordinary noble
Jin Hua was so envious of xiao lie that there was almost no limit
Jin Hua thought xiao lie was living happily with the many treasures surrounding him
Without him knowing how to fight xiao lie alone
Everyone's attention now turned to the advancing prime minister and finance minister kneeling before the emperor
Everyone was wondering what the two of them would do
" This noble one violates the tradition and honor of the royal family, please consider everything again" said the prime minister, also appointed by the finance minister
" What do you mean, is Miss xiao lie not such a respectable person?" asked the emperor coldly
" Everyone knows that little girl grew up without parents and also bled the commoners
Is it appropriate for a future queen candidate to come from the people?" asked the finance minister in a scornful tone while glancing at Xiao lie
The nobles whispered to each other justifying the remarks of the prime minister and the finance minister
While Xiao Lie was still sitting quietly in his chair
And a fool who seeks trouble for his own life
What they forget, their families live in a way dependent on it
While Xiao lie looked at the crown prince expectantly, xiao lie thought he would get a defense from the man
But after a long wait no words came out of his lips, xiao Lie could only smile wryly
" Pardon your majesty, may I speak?" ask Xiao lie politely
The Emperor nodded and allowed Xiao lie
" Do you guys have a problem with me?" xiao Lie asked that neither of them answered at all
" If you guys have a problem with me, let's settle it outside, don't ruin Shan Shan's daughter's party"
The Prime Minister stood up and looked at the sharp xiao lie
" Who dares to look for trouble with little miss? anyone will definitely feel afraid let alone line of guards who are always on standby to protect the miss
Even if the lady acts arbitrarily, no one will dare to fight "
xiao scrunched his forehead confused
" Semena mena, on what basis do you say that?"
" I'm telling you the truth, didn't you just destroy the trade minister's business a few days ago?" ask the finance minister with a smile
Xiao lie chuckled little to see him
" I just pulled out what I've given him, can it be called crushing?"
" Do you want to know how and what it's called to destroy?" xiao lie asked in a cold tone
The atmosphere of the party became even more gripping due to the aura of xiao lie anger
Everyone else no one dared to interrupt Xiao lie's words
Even the two Ministers who were trying to find trouble with xiao lie were now speechless with trembling bodies
" Do you two still mind?" the emperor broke the silence
The trade minister and finance minister shook his head and resigned then sat back in his place
The party started again even though with a rather awkward atmosphere
But the awkward atmosphere instantly disappeared as soon as they tasted the snacks that the palace had prepared
The palace directly hired the chef from the xiao lie restaurant to make a banquet at the party
And of course the dishes provided never disappoint
Moreover, Xiao lie restaurant xiao lie had just taken out a new cake
That is a variety of sus and milk pia cakes, really very appetizing and help improve the mood that is broken
" Are you okay, Lilie ?" ask the crown prince worried
Xiao Lie was silent with his sharp eyes
Xuan Yi who saw her girl just quietly felt suddenly scared
Afraid that her girl would no longer be by her side, afraid that she would leave
" Lilie, I......" Xuan Yi wanted to speak but was directly at the cut xiao lie
" I want to go back for a while" Xiao Lie said in a flat tone
" I'll take you" Xuan Yi asked
Xiao Lie shook his head, then said goodbye to the emperor and empress and left the party
Arriving at the eastern palace xiao lie directly asked Feng ran to look for horses
" Find jiejie's horse, we'll go home alone"
Feng ran stared at his non-existent expression that looked fine, inwardly he wanted to ask but it was better now to obey all his non-wishes first
A little while later Feng Ran managed to bring two horses and he just went up
Xiao also rode his own horse and drove it out of the palace
Xuan Yi had just arrived at the eastern palace staring at his girl's back wistfully, he had no time to prevent her departure
Xuan Yi was really scared right now, from the beginning he realized his girl would not be easy to hold
But now after successfully grasping her own she was hurting the hand she was holding
Arriving at his residence, his jiejies and gege who were waiting for xiao lie were confused by the arrival of the girl
Xiao Lie went home with only Feng ran
Plus his face seemed to be holding back anger
During the time of working with Xiao lie, they had almost never seen Xiao lie expression like that
So they could conclude that something had happened in the palace and make the kindhearted nonaya angry
