C2357 Uninvited Guest
"That's great, so what if that girl Chao Ge becomes the Imperial Princess? Tidal Kingdom is just a small power in the East Sea, how can it be compared with the Dragon Palace?"
Princess Chao Yin revealed a joyful expression, the depression and unwillingness in her heart also eased up a lot.
"It's good that you can figure it out. You should stay in the War King's Mansion and recover from your injuries during this period of time. If there are no other matters, don't run around, or else there will be more complications." Prince Xizhan said with a serious expression on his face.
"Father, are you afraid that Xigu will come and settle the score with us?" Princess Chao Yin frowned slightly and said in a deep voice.
"Xigu has always been steady in his actions, so he probably won't make a move at this moment. However, that kid Xining isn't simple, so it's best not to rashly provoke him." Xizhan said in a low voice.
"That's merely a stinking brat that's still wet behind the ears. Royal father, why are you so afraid? Once I become the Crown Prince's consort, I'll definitely find him to settle accounts with!" Princess Chao Yin gritted her teeth and said.
"Xining that brat is unfathomable. Even royal father is unable to see through his true strength. Even if you become the Crown Princess, don't complicate things any further. After all, the Tidal Kingdom is your homeland. If you really start a war between the two sides... It won't do you any good either." Prince Xizhan changed his domineering style and became more cautious.
"But this brat tricked your Tidal Decree, and we'll let it go just like that?" Princess Chao Yin seemed to be somewhat unwilling in her heart as she questioned him.
Prince Xi Zhan shook his head and sighed, "There's nothing we can do about it now. Although I don't know why Princess Chao Ge is proficient in the heart sutra for controlling the Tidal Decree, but she still has the Sea God's blood, and even if you kill her, you won't be able to take back the Tidal Decree. At the moment, we can only calm things down... "
"Isn't this letting them off too lightly!?" Princess Chao Yin frowned and gritted her teeth as she spoke.
"Yin'er, I'm already old. My only wish now is for you to have a bright future and not to continue causing trouble..." Xizhan sighed helplessly.
"Alright, I'll listen to you." Princess Chao Yin nodded and agreed in a soft voice.
If he hadn't insisted on borrowing the Tidal Decree, then he probably wouldn't have given Xining a chance.
Although her father didn't blame her for this, she still felt extremely guilty about this matter.
"Rest well. Once there's news from Crown Prince Long San's side, I'll inform you immediately." Xi Zhan slowly stood up and carefully withdrew from the bedchamber.
As soon as he withdrew from the bedchamber, Xizhan instructed a few capable generals to guard Princess Chao Yin's bedchamber and not allow her to step into the territory of the prince's estate.
More than a month had passed since the battle for the crown prince, and this period of time could be considered a festive period for the Tidal Kingdom.
Ever since Princess Chao Ge was officially conferred the title of Imperial Princess, she had received all sorts of affairs in the entire Tidal King City, and had frequently appeared in the public's field of vision.
Chao Ge had been the queen for a period of time before returning to the East Sea, so she was very familiar with these matters.
Although she looked like she was not familiar with the affairs of the world, she was actually proficient in the ways of the king, and Feng Yixiu personally supervised her from behind the scenes. Under her management, the entire Tidal King prospered. In a short month or so, it won the love and trust of the people of the Tidal King.
Besides occasionally helping Chao Ge to give advice and suggestions, Feng Yixiu spent most of his time on cultivation. He had to break through to the battle spirit emperor in the shortest time possible.
On the other hand, it seemed like Princess Chao Yin had disappeared without a trace. She rarely appeared in the public's field of vision, and she could only stay in the War King Palace all day long.
However, today, a mighty army suddenly broke into the Tide Kingdom, breaking the originally peaceful atmosphere.
To be precise, this was not a team, but a combination of two teams. They both had a gift team as long as a dragon, and they swaggered towards the Tidal King's Palace.
One of the groups was personally led by Crown Prince Long San, and his goal was naturally to propose marriage.
However, from the direction he headed, it could be seen that the purpose of this trip was not to propose marriage to Princess Chao Yin, or else he would not be heading towards the Warring Palace, and not the Tidal Palace.
The leader of the other group was a hunchbacked old man. If Feng Yixiu was here, he would definitely recognize this man. He was the chief commander of the Flower of Evil, Nurarihyon.
Nurarihyon's identity was the messenger of the Flower of Evil. His goal was to persuade the Tidal Kingdom to join the Flower of Evil and join the plan of the ocean disaster.
The reason why they came at the same time was not a coincidence, but a deliberate act. Their main purpose was to give King Xigu a great deal of pressure.
Whether it was the Dragon Palace or the Flower of Evil, they were both huge powers that the Tidal Kingdom did not dare to offend. The fact that both sides had come together indicated their cooperation, and it would also give King Tigu an irresistible pressure.
As expected, the Timeworn Palace also had a violent reaction due to the sudden change in events. It urgently gathered the officials to welcome the emissary delegation and the proposal delegation.2
Even the usually dignified King Timeworn could only put on a kind smile today. He personally welcomed the arrival of the two parties at the main entrance of the Timeworn Palace.
"Hahaha... The great commander of the Hundred Ghosts and the Crown Prince of Long San have come from afar. I apologize for not welcoming them from afar. It's really rude of me."
King Xigu laughed loudly as he walked forward. Even though he knew that the other party had come with ill intentions, he could not afford to lose the proper etiquette.
After all, the powers of these two parties were not existences that he could easily offend. A single mistake could lead to endless flames of war, and he had to treat them with caution.
"Your Majesty is too courteous. I didn't manage to inform you of my sudden visit, so please don't blame me." Chief Commander Nurarihyon slightly cupped his fists and bowed. His attitude was neither humble nor humble.
This was not the first time the Flower of Evil had sent someone to Tidal Kingdom. However, the previous few times, they were tactfully rejected.
That was why Chief Commander Nurarihyon had come personally, and had even prepared an extremely attractive gift and conditions. It could be said that they had exhausted all of their abilities in order to achieve cooperation.
"What is the great commander saying? Zhen has already prepared fine wine and delicacies to welcome all the distinguished guests. We can drink and chat..." King Xigu smiled slightly, and then walked towards the central hall of the Tidal Palace.
"Then I'll be troubling you more..."
Chief Commander Nurarihyon nodded, then slowly followed behind King Xigu, his seemingly casual gaze constantly sweeping through the surrounding environment.
After a while, the group arrived at the most gorgeous central palace in the Tidal Palace. It was also the highest level welcoming palace.
Just as they took their seats, King Tiegu spoke first and said in a deep voice, "Crown Prince Long San, I believe that you have come today to propose marriage. Zhen has already sent someone to inform Princess Chao Yin beforehand, and I'm afraid that it won't be long before she arrives."
"Your majesty has misunderstood. This junior did not come today to propose marriage to Princess Chao Yin." Crown Prince Long San slowly stands up and immediately shakes his head with a serious expression.
" Oh? Aren't you making such a big fuss to propose marriage?" King Tiegu stroked his beard, a look of doubt on his face.
"Of course it's to propose marriage. However, it's not for Princess Chao Yin, but your daughter, Princess Chao Ge." The Long San Crown Prince shook his head and replied with a serious expression.
Hearing this, King Xigu was also stunned for a long time. Prince Xining had already spoken to him about this matter.
At first, he was also skeptical and did not take it seriously. However, he never thought that Crown Prince Long San actually took a liking to Princess Chao Ge.
Putting aside whether Princess Chao Ge was willing or not, even if it was him, he would not agree to this marriage. Even if it was possible to offend the Dragon Palace, he would not hesitate to do so.
The identity of the Crown Prince of Long San in the Dragon Palace was indeed special. However, from the fact that he mercilessly kicked Princess Chao Yin away, it could be seen that... This was merely a despicable person who would do anything to achieve his goal. He was definitely not someone who was worth entrusting his life to.
"I'm afraid..."
King Tiegu acted as though it was difficult and did not agree to the other party's request.
