Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
However, Gu Qingxue was not an ordinary woman. She was proficient in the art of immortality and was the only female doctor who had the ability to help the emperor achieve immortality.
If he had to let Gu Qingxue go to Moyun Kingdom for a marriage alliance just like that, he would really be a little reluctant.
After all, ordinary women could not help him achieve immortality.
Seeing Rong Xiaotian giving her a look, the empress, Lady Yin, understood and said with a smile, “The ninth prince proposed in public, so His Majesty shouldn’t have rejected him. However, Lord Gu is not a member of the imperial family, but a rank 3 female official of our court. His Majesty had always cherished talents and could not casually betroth the pillars of the court to others. Your Majesty, don’t you think I’m right?”
Rong Xiaotian was grinning from ear to ear and looked at Lady Yin with an appreciative gaze. “The empress has considered everything. Ninth prince, I’m not an old-fashioned person. If the two of you are in love, I will naturally not object to this marriage. However, we can’t just listen to a man’s opinion in this kind of matter. We should also respect Doctor Gu’s opinion. Doctor Gu, you are the pillar of the country, and I will give the decree according to your thoughts.
You don’t have to have any scruples, just speak the truth.”
MO Yunye did not expect such an unforeseen event to happen.
Under normal circumstances, as a prince of a neighboring country, the emperor would not reject whoever he chose when he came to propose marriage.
However, Gu Qingxue was different. Her outstanding talent made her different from ordinary women. Even the emperor had to seriously consider her marriage.
Therefore, after Rong Xiaotian finished speaking, all the women present looked at Gu Qingxue with envy.
Gu Qingxue was indeed different from ordinary women. The ninth prince had asked to marry her, but the Emperor was not willing to force her. Instead, he let her choose for herself.
Even the princess of the empire did not have this right.
MO Yunye looked at Gu Qingxue expectantly.
Their eyes met, and a cold intent rose from the depths of Gu Qingxue’s eyes. She looked at MO Yunye as if she was looking at a stranger.
MO Yunye had never seen such an indifferent gaze from Gu Qingxue before. It was as if he had been struck by lightning, and he stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do.
In the past, gu qingxue had always looked at him with a kind gaze. This was the first time he felt Gu Qingxue’s gaze so cold. She looked at him from a distance, as if she could see through him.
Gu Qingxue’s gaze made him feel uneasy, and he subconsciously took a step back.
Rong Zhan also noticed Gu Qingxue’s gaze.
Resistance was written all over Gu Qingxue’s devastatingly beautiful face.
He could tell that she did not want to marry.
After Rong Zhan realized this, the wrinkles in his heart were suddenly smoothed out, and the frustration that rose in his heart dissipated a little.
However, he still did not understand why he was so irritated, and his expression became even gloomier.
On the other hand, Rong Han, who was in his arms, could not wait for Gu Qingxue to speak. He wanted to hear her reject MO Yunye!
The fairy was his future mother. He did not want to give his future mother to Uncle Nine!
Gu Qingxue’s gaze did not stay on MO Yunye for long. She retracted her gaze and stood up to face Rong Xiaotian. “Your Majesty, I was born a citizen of the Northern Key Kingdom. Even if I die, I will be a ghost of the Northern Key Kingdom. I am willing to sacrifice my life for Your Majesty and serve by your side. Your Majesty, please fulfill my wish.
After MO Yunye heard Gu Qingxue’s words, his heart suddenly ached and he looked at Gu Qingxue with a complicated expression.
In fact, when MO Yunye saw Gu Qingxue’s cold gaze, he had already guessed that she would reject him..
