Stunning Phoenix Emperor

Chapter 54

I... what exactly do I want, and what are I expecting?
He obviously longed for her to get closer, but... he really waited for her to come closer, but he hurriedly pushed away...
"Young Master Mei, Your Highness welcomes you." Suddenly, Qixian's voice came from behind the screen.
"I see." Mei Ruoshui came back to her senses, settled down, walked to the shore, dried her body, and put on the clothes Su Hanxiao prepared.
The material is smooth and soft, and you can tell that it is a tribute from the palace. Although it looks white at first glance, it is woven with delicate dark patterns, and the details are particularly luxurious.And the style is also loose, which is very different from the strong clothes he usually wears for the convenience of fighting.
In the side hall, Su Hanxiao unconsciously twirled the chopsticks between his fingers. Hearing the sound of footsteps, when he raised his head, his eyes lit up.
The wet black hair was not tied up as usual, but directly draped over the shoulders, and the flowing white clothes were as elegant as a cloud, which further accentuated the master's peerless demeanor.
"Strange?" Frowning, Mei Ruoshui pulled the hem of her clothes uncomfortably before walking in.
"It's beautiful." Su Hanxiao praised sincerely, got up and dragged him to the table to sit down, then turned around and fetched a cloth towel, and carefully dried his hair.
"It's alright, I'm not that delicate." Although there was no third person in the hall, Mei Ruoshui still struggled slightly awkwardly.
"But I can't bear it." Su Hanxiao lowered her head and kissed him on the ear.
"You!" Mei Ruoshui covered her red ears and gave her a hard look, cursing in a low voice, "You can speak sweet words!"
"That's just for you." Su Hanxiao put down the cloth towel, sat beside him with a smile, and put the bowl and chopsticks for him, "Eat!"
Mei Ruoshui paused when she heard the words, and silently picked up the chopsticks.
Su Hanxiao looked at his side face quietly, and her heart became peaceful.
Palace banquet... What a trouble, if you want to build your own power, you must first integrate the East Palace into a single piece of iron. However, once the East Palace has an extra princess who cannot be trusted, even in name, there will be many more variable!
"Look at me, I won't be full." Mei Ruoshui finally put down her chopsticks, and stared back at her angrily.
Martial arts practitioners are particularly sensitive to sight, so it's strange that they can still eat when they are stared at so closely and motionlessly.
"Why won't you be full, the beauty is delicious." Su Hanxiao smiled.
"Be serious!" Mei Ruoshui held her forehead helplessly, and said after a while, "What were you thinking just now?"
"I was thinking about who would be the most beneficial for me to choose for tomorrow's palace banquet." Su Hanxiao said bluntly without hiding anything.
"Favourable? You only think about this?" Mei Ruoshui was stunned.
"Do you want to ask me which one do I fall in love with?" Su Hanxiao raised his eyebrows and asked back, "I don't know most of those young masters. Are you really willing to be the princess?"
Mei Ruoshui was silent for a while, and slowly spit out three words: "Lan Chenyan."
"Forget it, I don't want to provoke Marshal Lan." Su Hanxiao rolled his eyes.
"You're lying." Mei Ruoshui said unceremoniously, "Is there anyone else you don't want to provoke? Besides, everyone knows that Marshal Lan only has such a precious son, and Lan Chenyan is willing to marry him. I have to stand by your side."
"It's so sour." Su Hanxiao didn't seem to hear his words, picked up a chopsticks of cold jellyfish and put it into his mouth, frowned and commented, "A lot of vinegar!"
"Su Hanxiao!" Mei Ruoshui couldn't help raising her voice after understanding her pointing and scolding Huai.
"Yes, don't be so loud, I can hear you." Su Hanxiao reassuredly put a piece of beef into his bowl.
"What are you running away from?" Mei Ruoshui asked herself, ignoring her.
Su Hanxiao sighed, restrained her smile, turned her head to look directly at him and said, "Ruoshui, do you think Father will harm me?"
"No." Mei Ruoshui replied without thinking, "He turned a blind eye to such a big matter, how could he harm you."
"However, my father said that I can choose anyone, except Lan Chenyan." Su Hanxiao said while falling into deep thought, "Ruoshui, tell me, what kind of disadvantages are there? It can even overwhelm Marshal Lan." What are the benefits on my side?"
"Can't choose Lan Chenyan?" Mei Ruoshui was startled, thought hard for a while, and finally shook her head, "[-]% of the Mei family's power is already in my hands, and I haven't heard any special news about the Lan family. "
"That's Father's secret channel?" Su Hanxiao leaned back in his chair, looked at the ceiling and sighed, "It's hard to even imagine, Father really has a big problem that can't be solved."
"Are you going to do it?" Mei Ruoshui said.
"Yeah." Su Han replied with a smile, but did not explain the reason.
Mei Ruoshui looked at her and intuitively felt that there should be something else besides Mei Guijun's instructions, but since she didn't say anything, it's fine.
"Hey, Ruoshui, will you be my ruler?" Su Hanxiao said suddenly.
"Ahem..." Mei Ruoshui was startled and almost choked.
"Is it so scary to be a gentleman for me?" Su Hanxiao asked depressedly.
"I..." Mei Ruoshui bit her lip and frowned, as if hesitating for something.
"Ruoshui, what do you want to say?" Seeing his expression, Su Hanxiao was also a little curious.It's very different from the reaction I mentioned when I was joking before, it doesn't seem like I don't want to, but... Is there something unspeakable?
"Your Highness." After a long time, Mei Ruoshui gritted her teeth, looked up at her, and said solemnly, "Does Your Highness know that there are two dark forces in the palace that act as horns, guarding Dayong's royal family?"
