Chapter 399 Princess Beiyang

Yan Li turned and glanced at him, with a subtle look.

Mu Cang had been walking quietly behind Yan Li and King Feng, intentionally or unintentionally keeping a distance from the ministers behind him.

However, when King Yu asked this question, it instantly attracted the attention of several ministers behind him, and everyone looked up at King Feng and Yan Li.

Will?

Whose will?

"I'm talking to the princess, why are you interrupting?" King Feng frowned and glanced at King Yu unhappily, "What the princess said about Jin, is it you can listen to?"

The ministers were shocked when they heard this, Jin's affairs?

Could it be that the emperor of Jin was also going to die, so he decided to leave a decree of succession?

King Yu raised his hand and touched his nose.

He, the respected chief disciple of the high priest, really had no status in front of his eldest brother.

However, after being interrupted by him, King Feng and Yan Li stopped talking, and the group soon arrived at the Feiyu Hall where the banquet was held.

Arriving in front of the palace, the Phoenix King turned around and ordered a eunuch: "Go and call Princess Beiyang over."

"Yes." The eunuch left as ordered.

Yan Li smiled and walked into the palace with the Phoenix King: "Has Princess Beiyang discussed marriage recently?"

"Not yet." The Phoenix King frowned slightly, "She said that the life and death of the emperor's sister is uncertain, so it is not suitable to discuss marriage."

Yan Li smiled slightly: "She is sixteen this year, and it is time to discuss marriage."

"Yes."

The group entered the palace. Two chairs were set up on the left side of the main seat. The Phoenix King asked Yan Li and Mu Cang to sit in the upper seat, and he sat in the secondary seat on the left.

On the surface, it seems that the distinguished guests are the most important, but the Phoenix King and the Yu King know in their hearts that the seat originally belongs to Yan Li.

If it were not for the inability to explain his identity, the Phoenix King should even sit at the bottom.

But in this situation, it would be unreasonable for him to sit at the bottom.

After all, the Southern Kingdom is the supreme of the nine kingdoms in the world, and the status of the Princess of Jin and the Ninth Prince of Mu should not make the Phoenix King of the Southern Kingdom lower his status.

Not long after, a girl wearing a dark blue palace dress and a red cloak with white fur trim came in, holding a hand warmer in her hand.

After entering the hall, she saluted to the Phoenix King: "Your humble sister greets my eldest brother."

"No need to be polite." The Phoenix King said calmly, "This is the Princess of Jin and the Ninth Prince of Mu."

The girl turned her head to look at Yan Li, who smiled at her.

The girl frowned and looked at Mu Cang unhappily: "Are you the Ninth Prince of Mu Kingdom?"

Mu Cang nodded imperceptibly: "Yes."

"God of War?"

The Phoenix King said in a deep voice: "Jiahe, don't be rude."

The girl frowned: "My Queen of the Southern Kingdom once sent people to the Mu Kingdom to express her wish to marry you, but the Ninth Prince refused?"

Yan Li couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth: "Princess Beiyang——"

"I heard that you were named a princess in the Mu Kingdom, and the title was Nanyang?" Xuanyuan Jiahe looked back at Yan Li, frowning unhappily, "What do you mean? Are you trying to suppress me on purpose? "

Yan Li held the teacup with a smile on her lips: "It should be considered fate."

"Who gave you fate?" Xuanyuan Jiahe frowned, "You stole my sister's husband, and you are trying to get close to me here?"

The Phoenix King endured it and spoke again: "Jiahe, sit down in your seat."

"I won't." Xuanyuan Jiahe looked at the Phoenix King dissatisfied, "Obviously, the God of War of Mu Country should be the husband of my sister, why did he get the chance of someone else?"

Although her sister is in trouble now, if the Ninth Prince agrees to marry, it may bring good luck to her sister.

But this opportunity was intercepted by others.

Yan Li drank tea calmly.

Mu Cang glanced at her with his eyes, as if he was saying that he was very happy?

Yan Li was in a good mood indeed.

"Jiahe." The Phoenix King's tone was a little stern, "Sit down."

Xuanyuan Jiahe frowned, walked to the side and sat down angrily.

Yan Li looked at her and smiled faintly: "Everything has a first come first served. I married the Ninth Prince first, and the envoys sent by the Queen of the Southern Kingdom went to the Mu Kingdom later. You can't force me to give up my husband just because the Southern Kingdom is strong, right?"

Xuanyuan Jiahe snorted coldly: "The Southern Kingdom is stronger than the Mu Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom. The Queen of the Southern Kingdom is more noble than you, the Princess of the Jin Kingdom. Isn't it more impressive to be the husband of the Queen of the Southern Kingdom than to be your consort?"

"This is not a matter of being impressive or not." Yan Li patiently reasoned with her, "It's that people should be reasonable and can't use power to oppress others. Besides, the Ninth Prince and I feel in love with each other-"

"My sister is beautiful, noble, both civil and military, and born with the majesty of an emperor." Xuanyuan Jiahe looked at Mu Cang and asked with narrowed eyes, "Does the Ninth Prince not like it?"

Mu Cang paused in his tea drinking, was silent for a moment, and looked at Yan Li without saying a word.

This question really embarrassed him.

It's against your will to say that you don't like it.

If you say you like...

"I like." Yan Li answered for him, and looked at Xuanyuan Jiahe without blinking, "Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Xuanyuan Jiahe was not very satisfied: "Since I like you--"

"Like doesn't necessarily mean we have to be together." Yan Li said, "There are many more important things in life than feelings."

Xuanyuan Jiahe smiled coldly: "You are just making excuses for yourself."

"Jiahe." Feng Wang spoke for the third time, "If you are unreasonable again, I will have someone lock you up."

Xuanyuan Jiahe's face changed, and he snorted coldly, and he really didn't dare to say anything more.

Yan Li didn't look angry at all, and there was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Xihe and Jiahe have a deep sisterly relationship, and the two are five years apart.

Whether before or after ascending the throne, Xihe always treated her like a child and loved her.

On the day Xihe got into trouble, Xuanyuan Jiahe cried and fainted several times. She refused to eat or drink for two days and recovered after several months.

Although what she said just now was a bit unreasonable, Yan Li could not blame her because she loved her sister.

But she should still be reasonable.

"Does Jiahe have a man she likes?"

Xuanyuan Jiahe frowned, always feeling that Yan Li's tone sounded familiar, just like her sister before.

And why is she so familiar?

"Please call me Princess Beiyang." Xuanyuan Jiahe said indifferently, "Not everyone can call Jiahe."

Feng Wang looked at her expressionlessly, with a warning in his eyes.

Yan Li chuckled: "Okay."

Xuanyuan Jiahe frowned and looked at her strangely. She has such a good temper?

Being squeezed again and again, she doesn't lose her temper?

"I heard that the Princess of Jin is auspicious and majestic. After returning to Jin, she did several earth-shaking things." Xuanyuan Jiahe looked inquiringly, "You are so powerful, why are you so easy to talk to today?"

Could it be that she is afraid of the strength of the Southern Kingdom and dare not offend them?

Yan Li smiled and said, "Majestic is for bad people, such as corrupt officials, bullies who oppress the elderly, weak women and children, or people who want to murder me for power and interests."

Xuanyuan Jiahe was silent for a moment, and his eyes were stained with a little suspicion: "Are you trying to say that I bully you?"
