Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 525
In the depths of winter, the cold wind was blowing, and the feather-like snow outside turned into ice skates, piercing Xiao Yiyue's heart with a knife.Her heart suddenly ached and bled.

Ling Xihan was tossed all night by Xiao Tingxuan, so she slept a little longer in the morning.It was past time, and she woke up slowly.Before he had time to eat, Xiao Yiyue barged in.She frowned slightly, with displeasure in her eyes.But she saw that her daughter was covered with a veil, and the only pair of bright eyes that were exposed were full of pain.Her heart tightened, and she thought of the soothing soup that Suxue gave Xiao Yiyue to drink last night.

She took a deep breath and waved away the maid who was waiting by her side.Xiao Tingxuan sat beside her, silent and did not speak.

"Come here so early, you haven't eaten yet." The calmer Ling Xihan's tone became, the angrier Xiao Yiyue became.She took a step forward and tore off her veil.

"Why are you doing this to me?"

The bright pearl light illuminated her face, but the skin that was originally smooth and smooth had spots and spots, completely destroying that beautiful face.Xiao Tingxuan subconsciously tightened his fingers, and remained silent.

Ling Xihan's eyes flickered for a moment, but he remained calm.

"Let's eat first." She did not deny that she had drugged Xiao Yiyue's food.

Xiao Yiyue was filled with grief and indignation, and blurted out questions.

"Why? Why do you want to do this? Am I your daughter? Do you have to destroy me to be happy?"

She questioned loudly, the heart-piercing pain tore through her flesh and blood and soul.Her eyes were full of pain, and she even looked at Ling Xihan with despair.

Ling Xihan only felt that his breathing was stagnant, but he was trembling and unable to speak.Her complexion is still calm, but if you look closely, you will find a trace of paleness and pain on her face.Xiao Tingxuan was also shocked, and his tone became low.

"Yueer!"

Xiao Yiyue suddenly raised her head and looked directly at him.

"Father, you also know, right?"

Xiao Tingxuan was dumbfounded, finally couldn't bear to see his daughter's painful eyes, so he softened his voice.

"Your mother is doing it for your own good."

"For my own good?" Xiao Yiyue snorted, "For my own good, will you ground me? For my good, will you separate me and Su He? For my good, to ruin my appearance?"

Ling Xihan lowered his eyes and looked out of the window, his voice seemed to come from outside the sky.

"If he treats you sincerely, why would he care about your beauty or ugliness?"

Her voice was very soft, as light as a wisp of green smoke, which would be invisible when the wind blew.However, Xiao Yiyue heard it keenly, and she was shocked.Su He's meaningful words last night echoed in his mind.

"Empress Empress...she has a good intention, how can I let you down?"

A hint of confusion rose in her eyes, but there was a flash of complexity in her eyes.Perhaps, she somewhat understood why the queen mother did this.

Ling Xihan suddenly looked back, his eyes were so cold.

"Three days later will be your wedding day. I said that I will hold a banquet for you and choose a consort."

Just as Xiao Yiyue calmed down and raised her anger, Ling Xihan said indifferently: "There are many guards in the palace, why do you think Su He broke into your palace under my nose? With his martial arts, he still can't do it." so as not to alarm anyone."

Xiao Yiyue was startled suddenly, her fists clenched tightly.The queen mother knew, she actually knew.Then why is she...

As if seeing through her conjecture, Ling Xihan smiled lightly and coldly.Picking up the white jade porcelain bowl, she took a sip of the jujube porridge that Xiao Tingxuan served for her, and then spoke slowly.

"I have no objection to him being recruited as a son-in-law. As long as he has the qualifications, as long as he can win among many talented young men, I will personally give you marriages."

Xiao Yiyue's eyes widened, and the arrogant joy in her heart hadn't dissipated before she heard Ling Xihan say indifferently: "But if he can't win, you won't be able to meet him again in the future."

Xiao Yiyue stared at her bitterly, but Ling Xihan's expression remained the same.

"If you don't want to, you can stay in your own palace from now on. When your father and I choose a suitable person, we will prepare for your wedding."

"No." Xiao Yiyue blurted out, her eyes determined and stubborn.

"Okay, I promise you." She raised her chin and looked at Ling Xihan proudly.

"He will win, I believe in him."

Ling Xihan lowered his head, with a slight smile in his eyes.

"Hopefully."

Xiao Yiyue snorted, turned around, walked to the door and fell back.

"Give me the antidote."

Ling Xihan didn't lift her head, "I'll give it to you after the banquet."

Xiao Yiyue glared angrily, but Ling Xihan raised her head again.

"Don't you want to give it a try? Will he still like you after you have been disfigured?"

Xiao Yiyue's eyes moved slightly, but she still said firmly: "He will, I believe him."

Ling Xihan smiled even more dazzlingly, "If that's the case, then what are you worried about?"

Xiao Yiyue was silent, then gritted her teeth.

"Okay, from today onwards, I will stay in my palace and never go out." She turned around angrily, but bumped into Yi Qiu who was rushing towards her.

Yi Qiu was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect that Xiao Yiyue hadn't left yet.

Ling Xihan glanced at her, "What's the matter?"

Yi Qiu glanced at Xiao Yiyue, hesitant to speak.

Ling Xihan frowned, "Say."

Yi Qiu hurriedly lowered his head, "The Right Prime Minister visited the Left Prime Minister today, and gave...all the ten beauties bestowed by the Empress to Mr. Luo."

Xiao Yiyue turned around immediately, glaring at Ling Xihan angrily.

"Mother, you—"

Ling Xihan glared at the leisurely Xiao Tingxuan beside her with a sullen face, no wonder he had been pestering her until dawn last night, no wonder he didn't go to court this morning, if you dare, he would have already figured it out.As if Xiao Tingxuan didn't see Ling Xihan's teeth-gritting eyes, he still smiled calmly and leisurely.He also seriously picked up a crystal dumpling for her.He whispered something in her ear.

"You were tired last night, you should make up for it. I'll ask the people in the imperial dining room to cook some nourishing soup for you later."

Ling Xihan's anger turned into embarrassment in an instant, she glared at Xiao Tingxuan, then raised her eyes to meet Xiao Yiyue's angrily, and said lightly: "From this point of view, your vision is indeed good."

Xiao Yiyue was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to understand something, but was still a little depressed.

Ling Xihan ate a dumpling, "Sit down and eat something if you're hungry."

"I don't want to eat your food." Xiao Yiyue stared at her phoenix eyes, and turned around resolutely. This time, she never looked back.

Ling Xihan put down the spoon, lost in thought in a daze.Seeing that Yi Qiu was still standing aside, he looked a bit embarrassed.He said, "Is there anything else?"

Yi Qiu didn't dare to hide it, so he said respectfully: "Master Luo has already sent those ten beauties back, and said, thank you for your kindness, and I won't bother you about such things in the future." When she finished speaking, her voice became louder come lower.Thinking of Luo Tianxiang's cold face, and that indifferent and cold tone, she couldn't stop her heart from trembling.
