. "Emperor, the general of the country is looking for a visit!" Outside the door, the voice of the eunuch general was passed down to the hall.

Nangong Lingtian, who was coaxing the queen, immediately stood with his hands behind his back, coughed twice, as if he was hiding something, then sat on the chair and shouted: "I have a request!"

Then, two people came into the hall. One was Jian Nantian who was defeated at the alchemy ceremony, while the other was his father Jian Yangchen, who was also the protector of the Wuli Empire and the head of the Jian family, the queen's younger brother. It can be seen that Jian Yangchen's position in the court is superior.

"Aiqing Jian, please sit down quickly." There are no outsiders now, so Nangong Lingtian directly gave Jian Yangchen a seat.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After saying that, Jian Feiyang lifted his robe and sat down, while Jian Nantian stood with his head down on the right side behind him.

"The dog son is useless. He was defeated in the alchemy ceremony. I'm sorry for the emperor's love for him." As soon as he sat down, Jian Feiyang scolded his son.

"It's no wonder that Nan Tian is because his opponent is too excellent. Even I didn't expect that there would be a young alchemist who could refine the top-grade Great Refuge Pill. There are only a handful of people on the Dou Demon Continent who can reach the level of Nan Tian at this age. The only thing that is the most fortune is to make people." Nangong Lingtian seemed to feel particularly regretful and shook his head and said.

"Uncle Emperor, I really like Phoenix. I can't betrothed her to that boy!" Jian Nantian, who was standing behind Jian Feiyang, couldn't stand it anymore and quickly interrupted.

"Shut up, do you think you are not embarrassed enough? There is no place for you to speak here." Jian Fei frowned his eyebrows and scolded his son, but no matter how he looked, he felt like he was for his grandchildren to see.

"There are no outsiders now. Does the family still need to separate the family?" Nangong Lingtian quickly smiled and smoothed out the situation. Jian Feiyang was still very influential in Wuli Kingdom. In addition, her sister, Queen Jian, is also his right-hand man, so he had to give enough face to the Jian family.

"I'm not afraid of the emperor's joke. Dog son is useless, but it is a rare love species. His feelings for Phoenix have never changed until death. When I came home and said that I could not get Phoenix as my wife, I would have to live and die. I really hate to give birth to such a terrible son. However, if the dog son can get Phoenix, he will cherish and care more..." Jian Feiyang did not finish his words, but the meaning was very obvious. He came to the palace to ask the emperor to give Phoenix to Jian Nantian. In his tone, he also hoped that he would have such a daughter-in-law. It seemed that he would definitely win the Jian family to take Phoenix home. However, Jian Nantian and Phoenix agreed in advance that they would marry into his Jian family if they had to win the first place in the alchemy competition. Now that they lost, it is inevitable that they would be embarrassed to speak.

"Jian Aiqing, Nantian is also my nephew. How can I not be in line with him? But as the king of a country, I promised a thousand gold. How can I change what I said? The people of the whole empire are looking at me." A very embarrassed expression, unexpectedly, the queen and Jian Feiyang joined forces to insist on this, which made Nangong Lingtian very angry. From the bottom of his heart, he did not want Phoenix to marry into the Jian family, because the power of the Jian family was too strong in Wuli Kingdom. Marrying Phoenix over again made him feel a little more of a crisis.

"I have a plan to be both good and beautiful, so that the emperor can not feel embarrassed, but also let the dog son live with the phoenix as he wishes." Jian Feiyang seemed to be prepared and prepared for his son to hold the beauty. When the emperor was embarrassed, he found a slope to let him go down.

Nangong Lingtian was slightly stunned, but Jian Feiyang said this, and he couldn't help but ask, "I don't know what good strategies does Jianqing's family have?"

"There is no secret of recruiting the prince consort in this alchemy ceremony. It is impossible to have any jokes, so it must be carried out to the end." Jian Feiyang's gourd was buried. He put this matter to death first. Isn't this causing trouble for himself? Then he changed the subject and said, "However, there is no explicit regulation for recruiting the prince consort for which prince consort is to recruit. There are more than a dozen princesses in the palace. The emperor can re-elect one to marry the prince consort, which will not damage the emperor's prestige and reputation, and will not have to marry the Phoenix."

"Yes, it's such a good idea. Strike the wrong person and make both sides beautiful." Queen Jian clapped her hands and agreed with her younger brother's idea. The people of the Jian family seemed to hope that Phoenix could enter the Jian family. Is it just because of Phoenix's beauty? The answer is no, and there must be some things that are beneficial to the family.

Nangong Lingtian's face suddenly became very ugly. Unexpectedly, the Jian brothers would come up with such a detrimental move, but it was very feasible. After a moment, he frowned and said, "But the Phoenix level is not easy to pass."

Originally, this was an alchemy ceremony and was decided by Phoenix and Jian Nantian. Only when Jian Nantian won the top position could Phoenix marry into his Jian family. Now that he clearly lost, would Phoenix still be willing to marry?

"The parents ordered the matchmaker to say that the emperor, as the king of a country, cannot always do what Fenghuang wants. She has to marry this time, and if she doesn't marry, she has to marry. It's enough to let her have to fight such a big circle." Queen Jian was unhappy. Phoenix was just a princess. Can she refuse who the emperor wants her to marry? It's obvious that the emperor has been perfunctory and doesn't want Phoenix to marry into the Jian family.

The princess has no worries about marrying. No matter how ugly she is, there is someone to want it. No matter how beautiful she is, she has no freedom. I don’t know if it is the princess’ sorrow or helplessness. As a princess, she is just a victim of politics, so Nangong Lingtian is determined to let Phoenix marry into the Jian family, so she has no choice.

Nangong Lingtian was also in a mess. It seemed that the Jian family wanted to set up the daughter-in-law Fenghuang. With the sword Queen and the country-guarding mage Jian Feiyang, he couldn't resist it. Finally, he breathed a long sigh and said, "Forget it, just follow what Jian Aiqing said. But you should send the Phoenix to the Jian family as soon as possible to avoid the long nights and dreams. I will find another princess to betroth the princess Cheng Sheng."

Although there is no clear rule for which princess to choose a princess, everyone is very clear in their hearts and will not be treacherous of being betrayal. Opportunistic behavior will definitely make people talk behind their backs. Therefore, Nangong Lingtian is a little embarrassed to make this decision, but the Jian brothers have made it clear that this is the case, and he cannot continue to pretend to be crazy and stupid.

After hearing from the emperor's words that he betrothed the phoenix to himself, Jiannantian's face covered with clouds suddenly saw the sunshine, and his excitement was unconcealed.

"However, the princess who betrothed to the prince-consort Cheng Sheng must be selected first. If someone asks, the answer will be unified. Don't show off your mistakes." Queen Jian helped her nephew and also helped the emperor do a good job in the aftermath. After all, both sides are indispensable people.

"Or I'll ask someone to call all the princesses over and choose one together." After thinking about it, Nangong Lingtian didn't know which princess should be given the right position to hold the phoenix, so he suggested.

"It's good." Jian Feiyang nodded with satisfaction, and a smile appeared on his face. As long as he could get the Phoenix back to the Jian family, no matter which princess betrothed to the prince-consort, he would have no objection.

"Your Highness Xiangxiang is asking for a visit!" The eunuch's voice happened to be heard outside.

Before the emperor could ask Xiangxiang to enter the hall, she saw that she had broken in rashly. Seeing the people in the room, Xiangxiang said, "Father, you can't let Cheng Sheng be the son-in-law."

"Nonsense, see what kind of style you look like? Do you still look like a princess?" Seeing Xiangxiang rushing into the hall like a mountain girl, what else does a princess look like? Her face looked very bad, and she shouted coldly.

Now that the Jian brothers are still in the hall, he can't do it without doing something.

Xiangxiang pouted her little mouth, a little dissatisfied, but she stood there and buried her head and didn't dare to speak again.

"There are no outsiders here, so please don't blame Xiangxiang. This girl is simple and likes girls Yun." Queen Jian smiled on her face, but her smile didn't make people feel warm. She sneered no matter how she looked.

"You are so pampering this girl, and it is becoming more and more unreasonable." After looking at Queen Jian, the emperor felt like a mirror in his heart. The reason why Queen Jian indulged Xiangxiang and other princesses in this way was so frugal to her own son, Crown Prince Nangong Zhanpeng, and she had the taste of playing hard to get.

"Xiangxiang comes here, let me take a good look." Without paying attention to Nangong Lingtian, Queen Sword attacked Xiangxiang and shouted kindly.

Xiangxiang was careless on the surface, but she was not confused in her heart. She knew the hypocrisy of Queen Sword, but she also walked up and asked with a smile: "Queen, what's wrong with calling Xiangxiang?"

"Oh, I didn't expect Xiangxiang to grow into a big girl like a flower. Look at her face and skin, she is the same beauty as Yun Meizi." After carefully looking at Xiangxiang for a few glances, Queen Sword couldn't help laughing. This time she was a smile from the bottom of her heart, but it made people feel creepy. Suddenly her face changed and asked again, "Hey, by the way, what happened to Xiangxiang saying just now that Cheng Sheng could not be the prince consort?"

"Uh, that's the only one, I just can't let him be the prince consort." Xiangxiang said hesitantly with her fingers wrapped around the bow on her clothes.

"Cheng Sheng is the one who won the lead in this alchemy ceremony. The emperor also issued an order to recruit the prince consort as the prince consort. How can you make a joke? You can't let him be the prince consort, you have to ask for a reason, right?" Queen Jian asked Xiangxiang with a smile as if coaxing a child.c
