She then looked at the sisters beside her. Under such a grand occasion, each and every one of them sat upright and still.
Although they were trying their best to stay calm, their pretty faces revealed nervousness and uneasiness. Other than Gu Tianqing who had the temperament of a lady from a wealthy family, the rest of the sisters were all good-looking, but their expressions and behavior were somewhat small.
The Emperor was used to seeing all kinds of beauties. Naturally, he had trained a pair of eyes that were sensitive to beauty. No matter how beautiful a beauty was, she would not be able to move his heart.
However, when he looked at Gu Xijiu, his heart was slightly moved. This girl had such a unique temperament!
There was even a faint aura of a hidden sharpness in her body!
Even though she was simply sitting there, she still had the capital to attract people. This was actually very similar to her mother, Luo Xinglan...
The Emperor and Luo Xinglan knew each other. Years ago, the Emperor encountered an assassin when he was traveling incognito. Fortunately, he was saved by the heroine, Luo Xinglan. He fell in love with Luo Xinglan at first sight, but she left right after she saved him. He did not even know her name.
Later on, when he was about to send someone to propose marriage, he heard that the heroine fell in love with a poor man at first sight and eloped with him despite her family's opposition!
He could not help but feel sad, but he could not do anything about it.
He was a talented and bold ruler. Later on, for the sake of Luo Xinglan, he even promoted the poor man to be a general and helped him to become the great general today...
Deep down in the Emperor's heart, he always had a special feeling for Luo Xinglan and admired her character very much.
He also valued her daughter very much. Therefore, not long after Gu Xijiu was born, the Emperor hurriedly appointed this little girl as his future daughter-in-law...
He did not expect the things that happened after that. Luo Xinglan committed suicide when Gu Xijiu was one year old, and Gu Xijiu was tested to have a weak physique when she was three years old. She even had inexplicable red spots. She became the laughing stock of the entire Feixing Kingdom, which also cast a shadow over the marriage...
He then glanced at his son, Rong Yan. Rong Yan was sitting there with a cup in his hand. His fingertips were slightly pale, and he did not know what he was nervous about. He was peeping at Gu Xijiu from time to time.
The Emperor snorted in his heart. Ever since the engagement was made, this kid liked to show a sad expression as if he had picked up a piece of trash, which made the Emperor feel guilty.
Now it seemed that he was not completely heartless towards the Sixth Miss Gu.
He was worried about his fiancée?
If Gu Xijiu lost this time, not only would she not be able to marry Rong Yan, her tongue would also be cut off...
This bet was too cruel to a little girl!
The Emperor glanced at Gu Xixi with slight dissatisfaction. The Saint was indeed beautiful. She was dressed in white like a fairy from the Nine Heavens, cold and refined.
When the Emperor first saw her, his eyes lit up. However, this lady always kept a straight face and did not show any other expressions. She was like a lifeless ice sculpture that lacked liveliness. He would feel tired if he looked at it for too long …
Isn't it said that doctors have the heart of a parent?
This Saintess had a vicious heart. She actually treated a child like this. She was really narrow-minded …
