Their promises no longer exist.

He Lan Xue looked at her blankly. She couldn't believe what she had just said: such heartless words were actually spoken from her mouth?

"Is it Yan Han forcing you?" he asked.

She stretched out her hand, grabbed He Lan Xue's lapel and said in a low voice, "In the future, if you want to be nice to me, then be nice to me. If you want to marry the Queen, then marry the Queen. I'll be fine too. "

In this way, he would no longer feel indescribably sad because of some inexplicable things.

He Lan Xue choked. She had a trace of understanding in her heart, but she didn't understand anything.

However, he also felt sad.

"If it's because of Yan Han …" Heran Xue was a little weak as she continued to speak.

Eleven who had been standing at the back bent forward to comfort her, "Your Highness, His Majesty didn't force you. You said it yourself. From today onwards, you are only in love with him."

"..." "I'm not asking her not to like others. When she first loved Pei Ruochen, I also gave her up. It's just that … why is it Yan Han?!" Even Heran Xue herself felt that she was trying to find an excuse. But he had no choice.

It was as if a sharp weapon had dug a hole in his heart, and he needed an excuse to fill it up.

However, He Lan Xue also knew that even if her lover still liked Pei Ruochen now, he could not give her away so easily like before.

As for why, He Lan Xue didn't know, nor did she know.

She turned her head away in a faint, lazy manner, as if she didn't want to continue the topic.

"He Lan Xue, you traitor, you still dare to openly appear!" Just when the scene was eerily silent, an angry voice suddenly came from the back of the line. He Lan Xue turned her head and looked angrily at the approaching person. She saw Xia Yu, who was wearing a luxurious royal dress, standing in front of He Lan Xue.

Xia Yu was Xiahou Yuan's only son and He Lan You's cousin.

The four imperial siblings, He Lan Chun, He Lan Qin, and He Lan Xue were all princes of the same father and mother. Their mother was the current empress dowager.

He Lanyou's mother was Xia Fei, Xiahou's older sister. He had already died a long time ago.

Many of those present recognized Xia Yu, and understood Xia Yu's attitude towards He Lan Xue — it was rumored that Heaven's Prime Minister Pei Limpu had been killed by He Lan Xue, and Pei Linfu was He Lan You's father-in-law. Xia Yu's hatred towards He Lan Xue was only natural.

Xia Yu was also recognized by her lover. She didn't expect that the little kid who had been drinking with her at the palace would look so beautiful in just a blink of an eye.

Compared to that time, Xia Yu had grown a lot taller. It was as if she had suddenly grown a lot taller. She was tall and thin, and her originally childish face had also grown a bit angular.

He looked a little similar to Helian Lu, with a hint of beauty between his brows.

He Lan Xue looked at this little brat arrogantly, thinking about how she personally hugged and coaxed him when he was young. She didn't expect that he would be able to interrogate her so arrogantly in the blink of an eye.

The kids these days were really growing fast.

"He Lan Xue, you insulted the Imperial Mother and harmed the Minister. You have ill intentions. Today, I will take care of you on behalf of His Majesty and father!" Xia Yu said as she turned her head to call for reinforcements.

He knew about He Lan Xue's ability, and he also knew that he couldn't catch her by himself.

He Lan Xue smiled. "Insulting my mother, harming the Minister? Did He Lan Chun give any proof? "

"Could it be that no one dares to question Young Master Pei's words?" Xia Yu's eyes opened wide as she confidently said.

He didn't expect that these crimes would all be proven by Pei Ruochen.

When did such a humble gentleman become such a hypocrite?

However, Houlan had always regarded him as a friend.

Seeing that He Lan Xue was silent, Xia Yu just assumed that he had tacitly agreed. He waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Men, capture this traitor."

In the midst of the crowd, many soldiers of the imperial court instantly surged out. They were the guards who came to Ice Country with Xia Yu and Liu Xi.

On the other side, Yi Jian, who was hiding behind everyone, raised his sword to move forward. Feng Jiu, who was standing to one side, quickly held Yi Jian's hand, then spoke with an enigmatic expression: "Waiting for development."

Although Yi Jian wanted to rush over without caring about anything, he recalled what He Lan Xue had told him before: he would listen to Master Feng's orders, no matter how big or small the matter was. He could only restrain his impulse and watch helplessly as his prince was surrounded by Xia Yu's subordinates.

His wife had already walked behind Yan Han, but seeing the situation, she took another step forward. Looking at Xia Yu, she said crisply, "The truth is that A Xue did not disappoint her. The death of Prime Minister Pei has nothing to do with A Xue."

Xia Yu looked at her and recognized her as well. She couldn't help but say angrily: "You were his concubine, of course you have to speak up for him! What's so believable about your words! "

"What about me?" When Yan Han was speaking up for He Lan Xue before her lover stepped in, he felt a trace of unhappiness in his heart, but soon after, he felt relieved.

If he knew the truth and chose not to say it, then he would no longer be a lover.

Whether the target was He Lan Xue or not.

Actually, according to the Imperial Might Technique, clearing up Helian Xue was a very unwise thing to do. The more chaotic and internecine the imperial court was, the more advantageous it was for the Yan Kingdom.

However, Yan Han didn't want to disappoint her.

Xia Yu raised her head and looked at Yan Han in surprise, then looked at He Lan Xue. She was a little skeptical, but still held her tongue and said angrily: "You are our enemy, and the traitor of Sky Empire is your ally. Your words cannot be trusted either!"

Even if He Lan Chun were to stand in front of him, he would only meet the two emperors on equal terms. And Xia Yu, this brat with no hair on his mouth, actually dared to question his authenticity? He was immediately infuriated.

"Hmph," Yan Han Han laughed, "The Heavenly Court has actually sent a child who doesn't know his place to participate in the Queen's Groom Assembly. By doing this, are you trying to insult the Queen or yourselves?!"

"I came here to admire the Queen from the bottom of my heart. I'm not like the rest of you, who have their own ulterior motives!" Xia Yu was so angry that her face turned red as she shouted.

He didn't understand either. Why would He Lan Chun send such a proud son of the Crown Prince to attend such a big event?

"Alright!" Leng Yan, who had been watching silently from the sidelines, finally could not help but shout, "Regardless of the truth, whether or not He Lan Xue is a wanted criminal in the Heavenly Court, or whether or not this Miss Yi is one of your people, this is the Ice Country, in the Ice Country, you are all guests. You must act according to the rules of the Ice Country." The cold and elegant voice seemed to contain a fiery anger that could not be ignored.

"But Your Majesty the Queen …" Xia Yu still didn't budge. She cupped her hands towards Leng Yan and was about to explain.

Leng Yan coldly looked at him. In the Ice Country, no one had ever dared to argue with her before.

Xia Yu finally became a little arrogant.

"Your Majesty the Queen!" Just as she was about to command the guards to escort Xia Yu away, another voice sounded out behind her. That voice was pleasant to the ears, but there was a feeling of wetness from the corners, and when everyone looked towards the origin of the voice, they saw a young master dressed in plain clothes walking out. His face was pale white, and although it was exquisite, there was not a single trace of emotion on it.

Those eyes, in particular, were grayish, making those who looked at them feel uncomfortable. It was extremely strange.

Your Majesty, the young duke is just hating this evil too much and is also worried that He Lan Xue is causing trouble in the Arctic State, endangering the Queen's safety and the order of the Assembly. He doesn't intend to contradict Your Majesty. That person walked in front of Leng Yan and politely reported.

Only now did her cold and elegant expression relax, and Xia Yu also realized that she had been rude just now. She lowered her head and rubbed it against the side of that person, and softly asked: "Liu Xi, when did you arrive?"

It turned out that the person who had come was the elusive Liu Xi, also the nephew of Xiahou.

However, with regards to Liu Xi's background, not even He Lan Xue's most elite First Heaven Pavilion could be found.

In some ways, he was even more mysterious than Liu Suifeng.

Liu Suifeng didn't seem to care about his own business from the beginning till the end. His fingers cupped his chin as he looked at his lover with great interest.

He had never cared about other people's martial arts.

"The two esteemed guests of the imperial court, I am truly surprised to see you like this." Leng Yan calmly and coolly warned both Xia Yu and Liu Xi. Then, she looked at He Lan Xue and smiled, "As for Young Marquis Xia's worries, I also have a deep feeling of understanding. "How about this, during the Groom Search Competition, King Xiaoyao — No, He Lan Xue, please stay in Frozen Cloud Asgard's heavenly prison for a while. After the meeting is over, I will personally release you and not interfere in the matters of the heavens."

When She Lan Xue heard this, she didn't have much of a reaction. She indifferently looked at Leng Yan, then looked back at her lover.

Yi Jian, who was standing behind the crowd, was filled with righteous indignation. He muttered to himself angrily, "What Xia Yu said is reasonable, this Ice Country's Queen is obviously avenging a personal grudge. Back then she couldn't do anything about the Prince, but now the Prince is coming to her his doorstep, how can she not take advantage of this opportunity!"

"Do not offend women, especially powerful ones. Men always have to go this way to remember it. " Feng Jiu smiled and slowly said this famous saying.

Yi Jian looked at Feng Jiu's calm face and almost wanted to punch him.

Why had Feng Jiu never been in a hurry?

However, to be fair, Helian Xue didn't seem to be in a hurry either.

He only turned his attention back to his lover, who was leaning against Yan Han. Her head was slightly lowered, and her face was calm and serene, as if everything that happened around her had nothing to do with her.

In fact, it had nothing to do with her.

All along, I just wanted to hide in a forgotten corner, have a good rest and enjoy life.

Who knew that he would be pushed to the edge of the waves again and again.

Her lover was very depressed.

Seeing her depression, He Lan Xue couldn't help but blame herself.

It must be because of him.

It must be because of him that caused all of this.
