Dugu Yue!
When Lin Tianfeng and others heard these three words, they were all shocked!
How could her name appear on that list!
A girl next to Chu Liuyue lost her balance and dropped the wine glass in her hand to the ground.
boom!
The crisp sound of the jade cup breaking sounded, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
There was silence in the hall.
Rong Xiu looked over here, his eyebrows raised slightly.
"What's going on, Master Lin?"
Lin Tianfeng stood up in a hurry and said:
"Your Highness, this Miss Dugu is not on our Dongtianya selection list! This—
"oh?"
Rong Xiu seemed a little surprised, and with a soft voice, he said to Yan Qing:
"Bring it to this palace for a look."
Yan Qing quickly presented the booklet with both hands.
Rong Xiu took it, looked at it carefully, then raised his eyes and said calmly:
"Dugu Yue's name is clearly written on it. If Master Lin doesn't believe it, just come and see for yourself."
Lin Tianfeng choked.
How dare he not believe His Highness the Holy Son's golden words
But, but this is not right!
That list was given to Dugu Yue before she went to Dongtian Cliff. Besides, he knew clearly that Dugu Yue was bringing her children to find her husband, so how dare he add her name to it!
"There must be some mistake here."
Lin Tianfeng swallowed hard, his face tightened and his whole body tense.
Even though he had seen a lot of storms, he was still confused when faced with such a scene.
The people present didn't know the details of Dugu Yue, but he knew it!
If this is found out, wouldn't it be—
"What the Lin family leader means is that the Yuntianque people made a mistake in this booklet?"
Rong Xiu leaned back in his chair and asked lazily.
Although his tone was relaxed, how dare Lin Tianfeng admit these words!
It’s not like he is tired of living, he is here to publicly accuse Yuntianque’s people of not doing things well!
"I-I didn't mean that."
Lin Tianfeng's voice was much softer.
Rong Xiu smiled and threw the booklet to Yan Qing again.
"Well, I can't explain this matter right now, so let's leave it as it is. It's not too late to investigate after the matter is over."
Everyone:? ?
This is your list of concubines, you said it so easily!
But since Rong Xiu had already spoken, others naturally couldn't say much.
What's more, there are quite a few people participating in this concubine selection ceremony. One more person is not more than her, and one person less than her is not a lot.
A woman with no identity or background is nothing to worry about.
Yan Qing held the booklet and felt her hands were hot.
He lowered his eyes again and glanced at the three words "Dugu Yue" that were obviously added just now, and his heart surged.
No wonder His Highness wasn't in a hurry before, he was just waiting here!
Rong Xiu tapped with his slender white fingers.
"continue."
Yan Qing took a deep breath and planned to read on.
"cold-"
"Wait!"
Just as Yan Qing opened her mouth, she was suddenly interrupted.
Everyone followed the voice and saw that the speaker was none other than Jiang Zhiyuan, who had just followed Rong Xiu in.
She looked at Rong Xiu who was sitting at the top, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and there was an obvious look of disapproval on her face.
"Your Highness, there seems to be something wrong with your actions."
Everyone became quieter and quieter.
"Zhiyuan."
Jiang Hetian beside him frowned and called her a warning.
Jiang Zhiyuan ignored him, pursed her lips, and continued:
"The head of the Lin family has just said that Miss Dugu is not from Dongtianya, so she is not qualified to be included in the list. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for His Highness to be so careless?"
Everyone looked at each other.
What Jiang Zhiyuan said makes sense.
Those who can come here are all the most outstanding women from each tribe.
It is indeed strange that such a Dugu Yue suddenly appeared and was on the list for no apparent reason and became one of the candidates.
Rong Xiu glanced at her lightly.
"Not all of the people here today are women from each tribe. If this is what you say, should they also be excluded from the list?"
Jiang Zhiyuan was speechless and bit her lip.
"My Highness knows that I didn't mean it that way."
"Only Miss Jiang knows what Miss Jiang means. How could I know about it?"
Rong Xiu seemed to smile, but there was no hint of smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is alienation from the inside out.
Jiang Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of embarrassment appeared in her eyes.
After seeing Rong Xiu today, she was filled with joy, but then she realized that he didn't seem to want to pay much attention to her.
She didn't take it seriously because his temperament had always been so cold.
But now, in front of so many people, he didn't even give her any face.
Jiang Zhiyuan felt very aggrieved.
Just when she wanted to say something more, Jiang Hetian spoke.
"Zhiyuan offended, Your Highness forgives me."
He chuckled.
"Your Highness also knows that this girl was spoiled by the clan leader here when she was a child, so she speaks a little carelessly. Please forgive her. I will teach her well when I get back!"
At the mention of "tribe leader", Rong Xiu's eyes darkened slightly and his thin lips raised.
"How could that happen?"
"It's a pity that the clan leader is currently in retreat. Otherwise, he would be very happy to see Miss Jiang."
The smile on Jiang Hetian's face faltered.
I don’t know why, but a few years ago, the clan leader began to retreat. After so long, he still hasn’t come out.
And Rong Xiu has already had great power during this period of time and has completely taken control of Yuntianque!
In the past few years, he has been avoiding the limelight of Rong Xiu, but unexpectedly, he turned out to be more domineering and powerful than expected!
Jiang Hetian smiled awkwardly and said nothing more.
"Dad! Why don't you let me continue?"
Jiang Zhiyuan couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Hetian frowned.
"What else do you want to say!? Don't you understand what His Royal Highness the Holy Son means?"
"But why! That Dugu Yue is clearly not qualified, not to mention that even the head of the Lin family said that her name was not reported in the first place. Why does Your Highness need to go to such trouble if the matter can be solved in one sentence?"
Jiang Hetian became a little impatient.
"Why are you always so entangled in this problem? Isn't it just Dugu Yue? Even if she is added, will it have any impact on the final result? Not to mention anything else, just her appearance and figure, There is no competitiveness at all! Is it worth it for you and His Highness to be unhappy because of such an insignificant person? "
"I-"
Jiang Zhiyuan was speechless for a moment.
"As long as you perform well later, won't the position of princess be within reach? There is no one here who is more suitable for this position than you."
Jiang Hetian advised earnestly.
Jiang Zhiyuan had no choice but to nod.
But for some reason, she always felt a little uneasy when she remembered the situation when His Highness was talking to that woman.
Yan Qing continued to read:
"cold-"
"Wait a minute."
Another voice came.
When everyone heard the sound and looked around, it was Dugu Yue who spoke this time!
The corners of her lips were slightly curved, and she said with a smile:
"I think what Miss Jiang said is true."
"Please, Your Highness the Holy Son, please cross out my name."
