691: Chapter 685: Sudden (4 more updates) 691: Chapter 685: Sudden (4 more updates) At the sa mont, Consort Yun suddenly stood up, her beautiful eyes fixed on the fiercely poised, masked woman in white, “Are you Li Ping?”
“Yes, Li Yun, how has life been in the Xuanfeng Dynasty?” The masked woman in white nodded, her voice extrely cold, every syllable seeming to freeze everything around her, making one very uncomfortable, far too aggressive.
Moreover, she directly called Consort Yun by her na.
Seventh Princess Chu Xuan furrowed her brows, feeling uncomfortable; she thought the woman in white was very rude.
Yet, Imperial Mother showed no change in expression, reacting as if this were normal.
Seventh Princess Chu Xuan stared at Li Ping, curious at heart, who was this woman, cold as ice?
“Li Ping, I didn’t expect you would co personally,” sighed Consort Yun.
Who was Li Ping?
The daughter of the head of the Li Family, one could imagine her status.
Although Consort Yun was also a mber of the Li Family, being the daughter of the Great Elder, her status was also extrely noble; still, she was sowhat inferior to Li Ping.
Especially in recent decades, the Li Family had experienced significant growth and strengthened considerably, Li Ping’s position must have been extrely high, hence her arrival at the Xuanfeng Dynasty was a bit surprising to Li Yun.
That Li Ping addressed her directly as Li Yun was expected by Li Yun.
On one hand, they weren’t relatives, with no blood relation, lacking the typical familial form of address; on the other hand, Li Ping had always been proud.
Back when she had not yet married the Xuanfeng Emperor, Li Ping was already born.
Although only two or three years old at the ti, she was completely different from other children, already very cold and proud at such a young age.
“Miss Li Ping?” The Xuanfeng Emperor also rembered, his expression sowhat shocked, like Consort Yun, he did not expect Li Ping to co personally.
The legitimate daughter of the Li Family’s head, her status was very noble, at the very least, not inferior to his, as the Xuanfeng Emperor.
“Apart from celebrating her birthday, I also bear my father’s orders to inform you of a matter,” said Li Ping calmly, glancing at Seventh Princess Chu Xuan.
“What matter?” Consort Yun felt an ominous premonition, the Xuanfeng Emperor likewise sensed sothing unpleasant, and Seventh Princess Chu Xuan turned pale, also standing up, her bad feeling intensifying.
“A joyous occasion,” Li Ping’s voice turned even colder, she raised her hand, pointing to Li Feng: “He is the grandson of the Second Elder of the Li Family, Li Yun, you should know of him, also very outstanding, in the younger generation of the Li Family, he ranks in the top five!
My father asked to inform you, to marry your daughter, Chu Xuan, to Li Feng!
My trip here is expressly for this matter!”
With that, Li Ping finished.
Seventh Princess Chu Xuan nearly fainted, her face bloodless!!
The expressions of both the Xuanfeng Emperor and Consort Yun turned sowhat ugly.
Honestly, they had already chosen Su Chen in their hearts.
And had already prepared to bring Su Chen and Seventh Princess Chu Xuan together.
Who would have thought…
A Cheng Yaojin would appear out of nowhere.
They were unaware that the Li Family mbers had co to congratulate their daughter on her birthday with this additional motive, totally taken by surprise.
Su Chen’s expression was also not looking good, but, he stayed quiet and calm, standing there, not saying a word, while everyone present stared at Su Chen, so feeling pity, others taking pleasure in his misfortune.
“I disagree!!!” Seventh Princess Chu Xuan suddenly shouted, “I already have soone I love…”
The resolve in Seventh Princess Chu Xuan’s attitude was unwavering.
As soon as Seventh Princess Chu Xuan spoke.
Suddenly, Li Feng’s expression darkened, his gaze narrowing slightly, filled with danger.
It was the first ti he had seen Seventh Princess Chu Xuan, and deep down he was very pleased, not for any other reason but because Chu Xuan truly had a stunningly beautiful appearance, far more beautiful than he had imagined.
rely at the sight of such beauty, his heart fluttered.
But who would have thought…
To offer face and be refused, even he, Li Feng, one of the top prodigies among the younger generation of the Li family, had been rejected by a princess of the dynasty?
Rage filled Li Feng’s heart, yet he did not directly erupt.
“Shut up!” At that very second, Li Ping suddenly raised her head, and even though she was behind a veil, her eyes pierced through the air sharp as blades, directly stabbing into the princess’s eyes.
The princess swayed, feeling a piercing pain in her eyes, and found herself seated back down, her body freezing cold.
“Enough!” Consort Yun furrowed her brows, “Li Ping, matters of marriage should be discussed further, after all, it’s no trivial matter, and Xuan’er has soone she likes already…”
“Li Yun, whether she has soone she likes is not important.
What matters is that she’s not yet married.
That is enough, and as for the person she likes, just kill him!” Li Ping spoke chillingly and casually, as if discussing sothing completely ordinary.
From a distance, Su Chen finally gave Li Ping a serious look, feeling extrely irritated!
He could feel the disdain and dominance emanating from Li Ping’s heart.
It made him very uncomfortable.
However, Su Chen still did not explode; he wanted to wait and see how the situation would unfold, curious about the attitudes of Consort Yun and the Xuanfeng Emperor.
“You… Li Ping, this is not the Li household!” The voice of Consort Yun also turned cold, her aura even fluctuating, and to everyone’s surprise, her energy signified she was at the Ninth Level Realm of Creation, not any less formidable than the Xuanfeng Emperor.
“Even though this is not the Li household, turning it into one wouldn’t be impossible either!” Consort Yun was angry, cold, her energy fluctuating, but Li Ping was just as unyielding, clashing head-on without any intention of backing down.
“…” Consort Yun’s eyes suddenly sharpened, like ice cones, ready to strike.
Just then, the Xuanfeng Emperor unexpectedly intervened, “Yun’er, enough.
Just as Miss Li Ping said, Xuan’er is not yet married, everything is negotiable.”
“Emperor, you…” Consort Yun looked deeply at the Xuanfeng Emperor, but then she restrained her aura.
“Imperial Father, how can you be like this?
I will not discuss it!
I do not agree!” The princess panicked.
What did Imperial Father an?
Did he really want to marry her off to the Li family?
At the sa mont, Su Chen communicated with Jiuyou, “This Xuanfeng Emperor, heh… really irritating!
Is he afraid of the Li family?
Or does he want to form an alliance with them?”
“Indeed, quite disgusting,” Jiuyou also felt annoyed, “But that Consort Yun, she is a good mother.
Young boy Su, what do you plan to do?”
“What can I do?
If soone is eyeing my woman, what else can be done?
Swords are blind,” Su Chen snorted.
“Today is Xuan’er’s birthday, and everyone here has co to congratulate her on her birthday.
So, it is ti to give Xuan’er her birthday gifts!” the Xuanfeng Emperor said, changing the subject with a smile.
Indeed.
During the birthday celebration, of course, the highlight was to give gifts to the Seventh Princess.
Everyone present had prepared gifts.
“Seventh Princess, here is the gift I have prepared for you, a natural tri-colored Luminous Pearl!” The next mont, soone stood out, holding the gift, speaking respectfully and obsequiously.
The Luminous Pearl, similar to pearls but more beautiful and translucent, and the natural tri-colored Luminous Pearl, even rarer, indeed makes a fine gift.
