Ye Futian naturally understood what Emperor Xia meant.
This old guy actually had such an idea.
But when he thought about it, it seemed quite exciting.
Of course, it was just a thought. After all, he was not that kind of person.
Ye Futian was more honest in his actions. When he heard Emperor Xia's words, he immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not think about it."
"Dare not?" Emperor Xia looked at him with a cold smile and said, "Is there anything you dare not do?"
This kid was the princess' guard in name, but when had he ever given face to Qingyuan?
He was very arrogant.
He couldn't bear to let his precious daughter suffer even the slightest grievance, but for a very long time, his precious daughter had always been thinking about him.
This was ridiculous.
Ye Futian did not know where Emperor Xia's resentment came from. Was it because of Xia Qingyuan and Yao Xi?
But at this time, it was better to keep his mouth shut. Then he lowered his head and said nothing.
He was able to do whatever he wanted in Emperor Xia's Realm. He dared to go to Lihen Heaven and attack the Xiao clan. Where did his confidence come from?
To put it bluntly, it was because he was Emperor Xia's man.
Many people in Emperor Xia's Realm saw more of his relationship with Xia Qingyuan, but he knew that Emperor Xia, who had protected him after the Sacred War of the Nine States, was his backer.
Now the old guy in front of him was the strongest in Emperor Xia's Realm, and he could not afford to offend him.
He could offend anyone but Emperor Xia.
Seeing that Ye Futian was pretending to be dead, Emperor Xia glared at him and said, "You have been to Dali. How did it feel?"
"The unification of the Dali Dynasty is very cohesive, but there are also shortcomings. The royal family of the Dali Dynasty is very powerful, and they are somewhat xenophobic. They even resist the Imperial Advisor of Dali. Otherwise, the Dali Dynasty would be even stronger," Ye Futian said.
"It is just Emperor Li's art of balance," Emperor Xia said casually. "But the Imperial Advisor of Dali is indeed a character. Since he also appreciates you, when will you bring him to Emperor Xia's Realm to be the Imperial Advisor? Emperor Xia's Realm has no royal family, so it will definitely be more comfortable than Emperor Li's Realm. "
"…" Ye Futian was a little speechless. The first time he saw Emperor Xia, his worldview was completely destroyed.
Emperor Xia's temperament appeared to be very casual. He was not at all like the proud and arrogant person that Ye Futian had imagined him to be. This was probably the impression that Ye Futian had of Emperor Xia when he was in the Lower Worlds.
Moreover, he actually wanted me to incite the Imperial Advisor of Dali to rebel?
"Your Majesty, Emperor Li treats the Imperial Advisor of Dali very well. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for the Imperial Advisor to betray Emperor Li's Realm." Ye Futian said. This was related to a person's character. Under the circumstances where a ruler trusted and valued someone, if they betrayed for no reason or for personal gain, then their character would definitely be extremely bad.
The Imperial Advisor of Dali appreciated him and was willing to send him back to Emperor Xia's Realm, but he would never betray him.
Unless Emperor Li was immoral, but if Emperor Li was immoral, he would not have taken the position of Imperial Advisor of Dali.
"There are no absolutes in the world. Time can change many things. One day, you may become the lord of a realm, or even rule over all realms. Emperor Xia's Realm and Emperor Li's Realm may no longer exist." Emperor Xia turned around and walked up the stairs. With his back to Ye Futian, he said, "One should cultivate and seek the Way in life. One should be free and at ease. However, remember to be careful."
As he spoke, he turned around and looked at Ye Futian cautiously. Ye Futian, who had just raised his head, immediately lowered it again. He was a little speechless.
What about the trust between people?
"Your Majesty, I have something to ask," Ye Futian, who had his head lowered, said.
"Speak," Emperor Xia looked at him and said.
"I once heard from the Princess that my wife may not have died. There is a Queen in the Three Thousand Realms who has incredible means and her will can reach all three thousand realms. Is this true?" Ye Futian asked.
Now that he had become a Saint, he could travel far.
"Yes." Emperor Xia nodded. "I can only say that it is possible, but it is still very unlikely. Don't get your hopes up."
Ye Futian clenched his fists slightly, feeling a little nervous. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he wanted to go and see.
"Your Majesty, who is this Queen, and where is she?" Ye Futian asked.
"You want to find someone when you have just become a Saint?" Emperor Xia glanced at Ye Futian plainly. "You really can't wait. That empress is a top-notch figure in the 3,000 Realms, a supreme empress. Even if I went to her door to look for her, she wouldn't even look at me seriously. Your current level of cultivation is probably not enough."
"I just want to find my wife, not to become an enemy of the Queen." Ye Futian said, "Please tell me, Your Majesty."
"I will tell Qingyuan. When you decide to leave, you can ask her," Emperor Xia replied. Ye Futian nodded. "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, do you have any other orders?" Ye Futian asked again.
"Get out of here!" Emperor Xia waved his hand at Ye Futian. This kid did not come to settle the score with him, and now he wants to just leave?
How dare he!
Ye Futian saw Emperor Xia's attitude and was a little speechless. He said, "I will take my leave."
After saying this, he turned around and left, a little speechless. Emperor Xia was completely different from what he had imagined.
Of course, this kind of Emperor Xia seemed more approachable, and there was no sense of distance from him.
Emperor Li had that feeling at that time. Even though he said that he would marry the Princess to him, he still gave people a feeling that he was too high to reach, as if he stood above the clouds and looked down on all living things.
After Ye Futian left, he went straight back to the Cottage Villa. He did not go to the Princess's Residence and ask for trouble. Now that Xia Qingyuan was very unhappy with him, it was better not to provoke her.
…
Several days later, the news that Emperor Xia had conferred the title of Yao Xi had spread throughout Emperor Xia's Realm.
On this day, a group of people from Yaotai Divine Palace came to Emperor Xia's Palace to escort Yao Xi.
Everyone in Emperor Xia's Palace was watching. After Emperor Xia had conferred the title, Emperor Xia had two princesses. No one knew what kind of attitude Emperor Xia had toward this princess who had been away for many years.
However, on the day of the Yaotai Divine Banquet, Emperor Xia had first sent Xia Lun, and then sent someone to accompany Xia Qingyuan. He must have cared about Yao Xi, otherwise he would not have cared about her.
Yao Xi came directly to the Nine Heavens of Emperor Xia's Palace and saw her biological father, who she had wanted to see for many years, the man who stood at the top of Emperor Xia's Realm.
Two eyes looked at each other, and neither said anything. It was exceptionally quiet in the misty clouds.
After what seemed like a long time, it was Emperor Xia who sighed and broke the silence. He said, "Do you hate me?"
"I dare not hate you, father," Yao Xi said.
Emperor Xia could feel a clear sense of distance from her voice, which was not a feeling when he was talking to her.
But he could understand.
As the world had guessed, if Emperor Xia did not care about Yao Xi, he would not have cared about the Yaotai Divine Banquet. She was his blood after all.
"I sent Xia Lun to stop you because I did not want you to punish yourself for what happened all those years ago. What happened between me and your mother was our own choice, and we respected each other's choices. You can hate me, but there is no need to hurt yourself."
Emperor Xia stepped forward and looked at Yao Xi, saying, "You think I've never acknowledged you, but the truth is that I've been to Yaotai Divine Palace many times to see you. It's just that you don't know about it, not even your mother."
Yao Xi looked up at Emperor Xia. If Emperor Xia wanted to, he could have looked at her without anyone else noticing.
"I'm not telling you this because I want you to forgive me. I just don't want my daughter to live with hatred. Since you are the descendant of Renhuang, you should have a more carefree life," Emperor Xia said, looking into her eyes.
Yao Xi lowered her head slightly, and her eyes were a little red.
Why was it that when she saw the man she had hated for decades, she found that she could not hate him?
She was his daughter, the daughter of Renhuang, and the noble princess of Emperor Xia's Realm.
"I have tried to let it go, but it may take some time." Yao Xi sighed softly.
"I will give you time." Emperor Xia nodded. "Do you have any wishes?"
"If I do, will you grant it?" Yao Xi asked.
"As long as it is within my power," Emperor Xia said.
"Of course," Yao Xi smiled and said.
"Speak."
"I want a guard," Yao Xi looked at Emperor Xia and said.
Emperor Xia was stunned and looked at Yao Xi. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Ye Futian?"
"Will father agree?" Yao Xi looked at Emperor Xia.
Emperor Xia looked at Yao Xi and was speechless. It was obvious that Yao Xi had not been able to completely let it go.
Ye Futian was the guard of his other daughter.
"Although Ye Futian is a guard, he does not actually perform the duties of a guard. It is only in name. Therefore, although he is Qingyuan's guard, he has never served as a guard in Qingyuan's residence. If you want him to be your guard, as long as he agrees, I will grant you the title," Emperor Xia said.
He knew that Yao Xi was very sensitive at the moment. If he were to say that Ye Futian belonged to Xia Qingyuan, it would probably provoke Yao Xi.
What he said was indeed true. He did not lie to Yao Xi.
"Thank you, father. I will try." Yao Xi smiled and nodded. The two of them chatted casually for a while.
On this day, Yao Xi moved into Princess Xi's residence. It was obviously a big deal for Emperor Xia's Palace.
Moreover, the first thing Yao Xi did after moving into the residence was to send someone to the Cottage Villa to summon Ye Futian.
After Xia Qingyuan learned of this, she also sent someone to the Cottage Villa to summon Ye Futian.
Thus, Ye Futian, who was playing the guqin on the grass at the back of the mountain, received a summons from both Xia Qingyuan and Yao Xi.
Ye Futian looked at Qin Zhuang who came to report the news and said, "Reply, I am cultivating in isolation. I have no time."
"Yes." Qin Zhuang left and went to deliver the message.
Hearing his reply, the two groups of people had no choice but to leave. They sighed inwardly. Ye Futian was the only one in Emperor Xia's Realm who dared to be so arrogant.
Two princesses summoned him, but none of them saw him.
Things were not very peaceful in Emperor Xia's Palace.
Ye Futian continued to play the guqin or cultivate. He was not the only one. Everyone in the Cottage Villa was cultivating hard.
Now, in the Cottage Villa, only Ye Futian and the Sword Saint had stepped into the Divine Path.
Yu Sheng, Gu Dongliu, Wuchen, and the others naturally had to work hard in the direction of the Divine Path!
