That’s right, this must be her brother Tian.
Tears slid down in an instant, like crystal pearls falling to the ground.
That sad expression was as if he had met a long-lost relative.
She is not a fragile person. Only in front of her loved ones will she not hide her vulnerability.
"you… "
Looking at the tearful little person in front of him, Nangong Tianlan felt upset for the first time.
Subconsciously, he did a move that even he didn't expect and squatted beside Ling'er.
"Stop crying."
Because of years of martial arts training, there was a thin layer of calluses on his fingers, and he wiped the tears of the little girl clumsily.
Everyone was stunned when watching this scene. Their mouths were opened so wide that an egg could almost fit in!
God, what did they see
Their wise and brave Prince Xuan, who had severe mysophobia, was actually wiping the tears of a crying little girl.
Although, she is a princess of noble status.
Although, she does look quite cute.
However, this cannot be a reason to convince them.
Because, every time the Princess of Feng Country tried to get close to their great Prince Xuan, she was ruthlessly thrown out.
Oh my God, what they saw must have been an illusion, a hallucination.
The phoenix eyes were wrinkled, emitting an evil and charming light. Looking at the interaction between the big and the small in the center of the hall, Di Shitian felt so cold that his whole body almost froze.
Damn it, just this once, he would indulge her just this once.
No matter what kind of entanglement there is between Nangong Tianlan and the little thing, she is his queen, forever!
“Ahem!”
Sensing the chill from Emperor Shi Tian, Emperor Tian Qi gave two dry coughs as a warning.
Although, she didn't know what had happened, he also didn't know how the little princess who was just adopted by King Tianze knew his younger brother.
However, he knew that Di Shitian had a strong possessiveness over this little princess!
What? How did you know that
Nonsense, didn’t you see that he was so angry that he almost wanted to beat someone up!
"Tianlan, you've been gone for so many years, my brother is so worried."
In fact, he wanted to ask, what is your relationship with the little princess? However, seeing the expression on Emperor Shitian's face, he decided to change the subject!
"Little thing, come back." Emperor Shitian finally couldn't help but speak.
Just ask clearly, why are you still crying? Of course, this is not the point. The point is -
Why should Nangong Tianlan wipe her tears
Damn it!
He took a few steps forward, rudely pushed Nangong Tianlan's hand away, and hugged Ling'er in his arms.
He took a step forward with murderous intent on his face and was about to slap him, but Ling'er spoke first.
“Tiantian… No, Brother Tian is my savior!” The little head shook slowly, hoping to calm Di Shitian’s murderous heart.
Lifesaver!
These words echoed in the minds of Di Shitian and Nangong Tianlan at the same time.
The former was patient, since he was the little thing's savior, he would let him go this time. If there was a next time, he would beat him up even if he was his reborn parents, not to mention his savior.
The latter was confused. He, Nangong Tianlan, could not remember when he had saved such a little girl.
Did she recognize the wrong person
"Ahem... someone, give Prince Xuan a seat." Looking at the tense atmosphere, Emperor Tianqi felt ashamed.
The only solution I could think of was to create some distance between my younger brother and the little princess.
Otherwise, he was really worried that the Golden Palace would become a ruin.
"Yes." The eunuch at the side immediately ordered someone to bring a chair and place it at the first seat on the left side of the Golden Palace.
The material of that chair is almost the same as that of the dragon throne. It was made by the late emperor himself when he was still alive.
Moreover, the late emperor had spoken the truth, and Prince Xuan was exempted from kneeling when he went to the palace to report.
The reason why the eunuch reported it just now was entirely Nangong Tianlan's idea.
After all, he hadn't been back for so many years, and he was afraid of appearing suddenly and scaring everyone!
Nangong Tianlan looked at Ling'er meaningfully, then turned around and sat down.
Emperor Shitian snorted in his heart and said, "Emperor Tianqi, since Prince Xuan, who has been away from the palace for a long time, has returned today, I will take my leave first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he left without waiting for Emperor Tianqi's permission...
Looking at the direction where they disappeared, there was a complex light dancing in Nangong Tianlan's eyes.
He had to admit that the strange little girl had disturbed his mind.
Emperor Tianqi saw all of Nangong Tianlan's distraction. It seemed that this brother of the emperor was indeed somewhat involved with the little princess.
But because of this, he became even more worried.
Emperor Shi Tian is not someone you can easily mess with!
He raised his big hand, signaling everyone around him to leave. Even Feng Xueyan immediately stood up and left the hall.
Prince Xuan has disappeared for such a long time and suddenly came back this time. The Emperor must have a lot of things to ask him, so it is naturally not appropriate for them to be present.
The hall returned to silence again, with only Emperor Tianqi and Nangong Tianlan left.
"Royal brother, why did you leave back then?"
He would never forget the anxious and panic-stricken look of all the officials that day.
In the end, he had no choice but to temporarily serve as emperor in accordance with the edict he left behind.
For so many years, he has never coveted this position. As long as his younger brother comes back, he will abdicate and let others take over.
But since his brother disappeared, there has been no news. He thought he would never see him again until his death.
"I just don't want to ascend the throne."
The tone was light, with only these six relaxed words.
I don't want to ascend the throne...
After hearing his explanation, Emperor Tianqi's mouth twitched uncontrollably. What kind of explanation is this? It's too irresponsible...
"Where have you been all these years?" Emperor Tianqi looked at him worriedly. Since he disappeared, they have searched almost the entire continent, but have not found any news about him. If he hadn't appeared this time, they probably wouldn't have found him in this lifetime.
Hearing this question, Nangong Tianlan's face suddenly froze, as if the topic he least wanted to recall was mentioned.
Emperor Tianqi was a very observant person, so he naturally saw it. He thought that this little brother must have suffered a lot in the outside world over the years.
"If you don't want to talk about it, then I won't ask. As long as you can come back, that's good!" As he spoke, Emperor Tianqi stood up, walked in front of Nangong Tianlan, and looked at him carefully.
After not seeing him for many years, he has changed a lot.
"Since you are back, I can return this throne to its original owner..." Before Emperor Tianqi finished speaking, he was interrupted by a cold voice. (To be continued)
