The Great Queen Mau Lewat
Chapter 86's
Xinyue Palace, the,
"Huang Guifei's.. Big miss mo has arrived. " A servant told Huang Guifei of Ziyan's arrival. The king's favorite concubine had specifically invited his son's future wife to come to his palace.
"Please let him in. "
The waiter bowed a little and went to pick up Ziyan.
Ziyan looked at the servant who had asked him to wait back, then allowed himself to enter the room where he had come out earlier.
Ziyan still did not expect that he was currently a barada in the Xinyue palace. Three days ago, surprisingly a eunuch came to his residence, and relayed Huang Guifei's message. He directly invited ziyan to come to his palace. The reason behind the invitation may be related to the rumors that are being discussed. It has been a week since Sima rui's departure. And rumors about him, sima rui, and sima yan spread in the capital. I don't know who started the rumor, but Ziyan is convinced that the source is the same person who sent an anonymous letter to sima rui. Ziyan did not care about the rumors. But the rumor was enough to make it difficult for his father in the palace court. Several ministers who were opposed to his father, made this an excuse to bring him down. But luckily this matter was handled by His Majesty the emperor well. As the reason sima rui is not in place at the moment. The emperor asked the ministers to temporarily suspend the matter and wait until his son returned.
"Greetings Huang Guifei. " Ziyan bowed in greeting. The woman who became Huang Guifei as well as the mother of her future husband is indeed worthy of some of the emperor's favorite concubines. In addition to her beauty, Huang Guifei's strong upbringing was able to make his interlocutors feel weak.
"Rise.... Please sit. "
Huang Guifei gave instructions for the servants to pour the tea he had prepared.
The calmness of ziyan made Huang Guifei quite satisfied. Normally when someone is invited to the palace for the first time, he will be nervous or afraid. But this girl, very calm and did not see the slightest fear of him.
Ziyan observed the woman in front of him guessing what he was thinking. It really fits with the personality of his son. Huang Guifei looked emotionless and his aura was cold. Makes it hard to read what he is thinking.
"Do you know why I called you? "
" No, Your Highness. "
Although Ziyan had guessed the reason he was invited, but he did not want to be so frankly said. Acting too smart is not a good thing either.
Huang Guifei was still paying attention to ziyan's reaction. Although the question was full of emphasis, but the girl still looked calm. Making one corner of Huang Guifei's lips smile slightly.
" Rumors about the three of you are a warm conversation in the capital." (Huang Guifei)
Ziyan remained silent, neither refuting nor asserting.
" Because of that rumor, the situation outside is not good. They're making those rumors a threat to your father and my son." Huang Guifei turned his cup around then sipped his tea. " What are your plans for this. "
Regarding the current situation, ziyan knew clearly. If this little thing isn't handled well, it can turn into a huge boulder ready to destroy his family. But...
" This rumor has to do with the integrity of the princes. Spreading bad rumors about them will not end well. Please Huang Guifei be patient. Because without me intervening, someone will take action. "
Huang Guifei looked at the confidence in the girl's eyes. According to what his son mentioned. This girl deserves to be his daughter-in-law. But sometimes a confidence that is too big can also be a hole that will knock you down.
Ziyan had not expected Huang Guifei to fully understand his way of thinking. This is the first time they have spoken to each other in private. But for some reason, Ziyan felt very suitable with his future father-in-law.
After a serious talk, the two of them ended up spending time with small talk. Huang Guifei who never spoke much, but in front of Ziyan was able to enjoy his conversation casually and pleasantly. It was a rare sight, and never even the emperor thought that one day there would be someone more attractive to his wife than him.
While elsewhere.
A tea shop is crowded with visitors. A storyteller is preparing. As usual he will bring a story that looks more like spreading rumors. Of course the hot rumors of ziyan also started from them. The storyteller began to give beats to his desk sign the story was about to begin. Everyone quietly sat down to listen.
" Because you're looking forward to it. Then I'll tell you a warm story lately. What more if not the love triangle of the crown prince, the first prince, and his fiancee. "
The cheers of visitors make the atmosphere more crowded.the storyteller starts the story. The story begins with a meeting of ziyan with sima yan. Most of the stories have gone through change. So that the story turned into a story of how ziyan seduced the two princes. Insults and insults come out of the mouths of visitors. The men began to think dirty about the great ability of ziyan in bed so as to conquer the two princes, while the women, scorned and insulted ziyan as a fox that was good at teasing the princes.
The previously bustling atmosphere was filled with ridicule and insults towards ziyan was momentarily silent as a small mug floated to the table of the storyteller man.
The middle-aged man who was previously storytelling was silent and furiously cursing at the mug thrower. He looked towards the seat that was in the corner where the mug came from. Two men were sitting there, from his clothes it was seen that one of them was a noble.
" Young master. What reason made you throw this thing. Did I offend you? "
The storyteller asked in a cynical tone to the young man. But before the noble man opened his mouth, the other man holding the sword had already dropped the storyteller so as to make his head touch the table.
"Peccful. How dare you speak disrespectfully with the crown prince. "
Knowing the identity of the noble man made the storyteller who previously had emotions turn fearful. Cold sweat began to wet his temples, his pale lips looking as if his soul had left his body. All visitors who were previously upset by the actions of sima yan for disturbing the storyteller, suddenly closed their mouths after knowing his identity.
'The storyteller must be dead. '
'We just had a bad talk in front of the crown prince. '
'What the crown prince will do. '
'Will there be a massacre after this. '
So many questions in the minds of the visitors. They can only ask their questions in silence. Watching the crown prince punish the storyteller.
Sima yan walked towards the storyteller. He stared intently as if piercing the man with his gaze.
" Slandering and spreading false news about the royal family is a major crime. From now on, if anyone still dares to talk about this rumor. Then both he and his entire family will be punished severely. " Before stepping away, Sima yan reopened his voice. "Feng xiao, take the man to be an example for the others. "
Feng xiao dragged the storyteller forcibly.the middle-aged man thrashed and asked Sima yan for forgiveness. But his efforts were in vain. Sima yan did not care about him and continued walking towards his carriage.
