Because he always comes out secretly at night, Shangguan Ruoli's Qinggong and hiding skills are getting stronger and stronger.

He returned to Meixiang Garden quietly, but Yuan Hao did not come.

This made Shangguan Ruoli a little disappointed, so he put the key of the exquisite box into Xiao Yunluo's favorite vase during his lifetime, and then meditated and practiced until dawn.

Not only did I not feel tired, but I felt refreshed. After completing the daily push-ups and other physical strength training, the servants got up to do things one after another.

While washing, Rejoice reported that Xiao Yunqing was banned from the Wutong Courtyard, and people in the Wutong Courtyard were not allowed to come or go at will.

Sassoon reported: "Liu'er secretly left the house yesterday, but she was in a treacherous manner, and finally got rid of the person who was following her."

Bi Lian obediently continued to work as a fire girl in the servant's big kitchen, nothing unusual happened.

After breakfast, I received a message from the palace: the envoys from various countries had arrived, and a grand banquet and various welcome activities were held in the palace. Shangguan Ruoli was invited to attend the banquet and prepared for a talent show.

At the same time, Xiao Yunqing, the wife of the general who ruled the country, and Shangguan Ruoxian, Shangguan Zhao, the legitimate daughter, and legitimate son also received the message. The emperor's order cannot be violated, and Xiao Yunqing's grounding is in vain.

Shangguan Tianxiao thought he was too embarrassed to see Shangguan Ruoli, so he didn't show up, but he sent someone to deliver new clothes, all made by the most famous clothing store in the capital, and there were also many precious gold and silver jewelry.

Because Shangguan Ruoli had settled Xiao Fei well, he no longer had any worries and could concentrate on practicing and waiting for the opportunity.

Three days passed quickly, and it was time to enter the palace for the banquet.

Shangguan Ruoli asked Rejoice and Sassoon to choose the best and suitable clothes and jewelry for Shangguan Ruoli from the clothes and jewelry given by Shangguan Tianxiao, and dress her up.

She has good clothes and jewelry, and she is happy to dress herself up beautifully. She is not as stubborn as the original owner who refused to wear the clothes and jewelry given by Guan Tianxiao.

Shangguan Tianxiao was waiting at the gate. When he saw that Shangguan Ruoli was wearing the clothes and jewelry he had prepared for her, the frost on his face could not help but disperse, and the corners of his lips raised slightly.

Shangguan Ruoli was wearing a lavender dress and a lighter purple gauze jacket, which vividly reflected her graceful figure. Her waist-length hair was flying in the wind, with a few strands of hair flying playfully in front.

Wearing a purple crystal necklace around her neck, the crystal shimmered slightly, making her skin as white as snow. She had a slender head and eyebrows, teeth like shells, and a waist as thick as a veil. There was a smile at the corner of her mouth, making her look like an immortal descending from the earth.

a feeling of.

Shangguan Ruoli saluted at Rejoice's signal: "Father..."

"Excuse me!" Shangguan Tianxiao stretched out his hand to hold Shangguan Ruoli's arm. It was the first time he saw her since she was questioned by Shangguan Ruoli that day, so he felt a little uncomfortable.

Shangguan Ruoli stood up and said with a caring smile: "Father's voice sounds a little hoarse. Please pay attention to rest and drink more water. I know that father is worried about his daughter's affairs, but the imperial power is supreme, and thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness.

The daughter accepts her fate and asks for nothing else, except that her father will not be harmed."

Such gentle words brought tears to Shangguan Tianxiao's eyes, "You and I are blood relatives, how can we be implicated? I'm sorry for your mother as a father. I have made you suffer so much, and I can't help but watch your life in danger!"

When the missions from various countries leave, my father will give you 300,000 military rights in exchange for your freedom of marriage. At worst, my father will return to his hometown to work as a small trader, and the twenty-plus years of military service will be nothing more than a dream."

"Father, it's my daughter who is incompetent..." Shangguan Ruoli was really moved. Shangguan Tianxiao worked hard to reach his current position with one sword and one gun. You can imagine the hardships and dangers involved. He gave up just because of her. What a shame.

What a deep love!

Shangguan Ruoli, who has never tasted the affection between her parents, is determined to protect the relationship between father and daughter that is as blessed by God.

Xiao Yunqing saw the deep love between father and daughter from a distance, and did not hide the disgust and hatred in his eyes.

Shangguan Ruoxian looked at the father and daughter bitterly, and said coldly: "Mom, don't worry, the days are long, there will be time for her to cry!"

Xiao Yunqing gave Liu'er beside her a wink, and Liu'er said: "Second Miss, I heard about a big event on the street that day. Princess Nanyun threatened to recruit His Royal Highness Prince Xuan as his consort to take back her man!"

Shangguan Ruoxian became anxious when he heard this and spat: "Bah! She is dreaming! Will the mighty Prince Xuan Dongming be Nan Yun's consort?"

Shangguan Zhao sighed: "Second sister! Of course that's impossible! But if she wants to snatch King Xuan, the biggest obstacle is the eldest sister, the future Princess Xuan!"

Shangguan Ruoxian patted Shangguan Zhao on the back of the head lovingly, "You little rascal! I know what to do."

Shangguan Zhao hid for a moment and said with a smile: "You don't have to do it yourself. Princess Anping hates my eldest sister so much that she hates her so much. You just need to provoke her with a few words."

This younger brother is only twelve years old, but he is as scheming as an adult.

When he saw Shangguan Tianxiao looking over, he smiled, ran over, and saluted meticulously: "My child has met his father!"

His expression was full of adoration and admiration, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction or resentment about his mother being grounded.

Shangguan Tianxiao looked at Xiao Yunqing and his daughter, whose expressions were stiff because they tried hard to conceal their true emotions. He was even more satisfied with his son and put a kind smile on his face: "Get up."

Xiao Yunqing glanced at Shangguan Ruoli coldly, and took Shangguan Ruoxian to salute Shangguan Tianxiao.

Shangguan Ruoli was originally "blind" and pretended not to see.

Shangguan Tianxiao didn't want Shangguan Ruoli to salute Xiao Yunqing, so he ordered: "Get in the sedan, it's getting late!"

There must have been a lot of people entering the palace today, and it was inconvenient for the carriage to move and turn, so Shangguan Tianxiao ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair, while he rode in front.

Sure enough, there were still two miles away from the palace gate, and the march was slow. Countless carriages, sedan chairs, and accompanying servants were bustling.

After finally reaching the entrance of the palace, the sedan fell down steadily.

Rejoice opened the sedan curtain and said, "Miss, we're here."

Sassoon stretched out his hand to support Shangguan Ruoli and reminded him softly: "Miss, be careful where you step."

When Shangguan Ruoli got off the sedan, he saw Dongming Ziyu, dressed in a purple python robe, getting out of his iconic luxury carriage.

Wearing a golden crown on his head, his skin is like jade, his eyebrows are like a knife, flying up slanted, his starry eyes are like ice and snow, without any warmth, and his thin lips are pursed tightly.

His appearance made everyone quiet down. It felt like everything in the world had lost its brilliance, and there was only one him alive and cold in the vastness, which made people shudder.

There was no expression on his ice face. However, he strode towards Shangguan Tianxiao and glanced at Shangguan Ruoli with slightly lowered eyes.

Shangguan Ruoli's cold hair stood on end. This man was even colder than before!

Shangguan Tianxiao knelt down on one knee and performed a military salute: "General, I will pay my respects to His Highness King Xuan."

The two of them are both fierce generals on the battlefield. They have fought side by side several times and they both admire each other.
