Chapter 486 King Yi Ignores His Joking Remarks
No matter what the reason was, since the emperor didn't order Leng Xian to stand up, Leng Xian didn't dare to stand up on his own.
So Leng Xian had no choice but to kneel back on the ground.
All the civil and military officials in the Golden Palace were standing, only he was kneeling...
The emperor also said... this was for the sake of his own illness...
But no matter how Leng Xian thought about it, he felt that... this was a deliberate humiliation from the emperor.
If the emperor really cared about his own illness, he would not have forcibly issued an oral decree to summon him to the palace for court;
If you really care about your weak body and weak legs, then...then Your Majesty, please at least give me a seat!
Aren’t we the future in-laws?
Should we say that Leng Xian has lost his mind?
Or should we say that Leng Xian is used to having good dreams?
He didn't even look to see if there was anyone else sitting in this golden palace besides the emperor.
The royal family, two princes, several dukes, marquises, and earls...
People with such noble status are still standing!
What virtue and ability do you have, Leng Xian, to dream of having a seat in the golden palace?
Dream on!
Have you accomplished anything?
Or is his status so noble that it surpasses those princes, dukes, marquises, and earls...
If you can't find your own position and just keep dreaming, in the end, what else can you become but a joke?
Seeing Leng Xian trying to get up in a daze with his butt sticking out;
Then he seemed to understand and lay down again.
That look...
Hong De looked at it and almost burst out laughing.
Hong Dedi's face remained expressionless;
However, the two hands placed on his thighs were clenched into fists.
It was really hard for Hong Dedi to hold back his laughter!
Leng Xian, who was kneeling down below, was also struggling in his heart...
Why doesn't the emperor let himself stand up?
Are you really thinking about your own body?
But then I thought again...
The Emperor gave an oral order yesterday, asking me to come to court today;
But what exactly it was for...it was not clearly stated.
Now that I'm here, the emperor will have to tell him, right?
However, Leng Xian knelt there and waited for a while, but still did not hear the emperor speak.
Leng Xian couldn't help but wonder...
What is the emperor doing?
Come to me, but don't make any sound, don't speak...
Could it be that... he just wants me to come and see him?
If the emperor has nothing important to discuss with me, why doesn't he wait until I recover before ordering me to attend court?
Seeing that he was so weak and his legs were so limp that he couldn't even stand, he insisted on kneeling here with his sick body!
I have been kneeling for so long, His Majesty, please say something!
Leng Xian thought that ever since his father passed away and he inherited the title and began attending court, the Golden Palace had never been silent for such a long time...
The officials did not play, the emperor did not speak, the ministers knelt below, and the emperor did not ask them to stand up...
This feeling... why does it feel a little bit wrong?
Only Leng Xian was kneeling here.
Everyone in the Golden Palace should be looking at me, right?
At this moment, they look at themselves... like a ridiculous clown?
Thinking about being stared at by all the ministers, Leng Xian felt as if a thorn in his back and felt uncomfortable all over.
After waiting for a while, Emperor Hongde still didn't say anything.
Leng Xian clenched his hands into fists as he supported himself on the ground.
Gritting his teeth, Leng Xian raised his head slightly.
He did not dare to look up at Emperor Hongde on the throne, but only bowed his hands and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I am here today to attend court in compliance with your order.
But I don’t know...what order did the emperor give to summon me?
I respectfully listen to your Majesty's will!"
After hearing Leng Xian's words, Emperor Hongde laughed secretly in his heart...
Yo ho!
I didn't say anything for a while, but you were so anxious to urge me to speak.
I just won't speak, what can you do to me?
The corners of Emperor Hong De's lips curled up slightly, but he still didn't speak. He just lowered his eyes and looked at Leng Xian who was kneeling.
Emperor Hong De thought to himself: Leng Xian, ah Leng Xian, are you still anxious?
If you ask me urgently, I have to reply immediately?
Wouldn't that make me lose face?
Now you look so timid like a harmless sheep...
When greedy for the wife's dowry;
But when you favor your concubine and kill your wife;
When you indulge your concubine, your immoral mother, and your illegitimate children to bully my daughter-in-law...
Humph! You shouldn't be like this now, right?
By this time, all the civil and military officials in the palace had already sensed something different.
Yesterday, the Emperor issued an oral order, ordering Leng Xian, the Marquis of Qinxing, who was still ill and was originally dispensable and could come or not, to come to the palace to attend the court today...
If there were no serious orders regarding court affairs, then why was Leng Xian asked to come to court?
Was it... just to tease him? To humiliate him?
Since the emperor has granted marriage to the second prince Xiao Jingyu, he and the Marquis of Qinxing Leng Xian are at least in-laws.
It’s only right to give some face to my in-laws... right?
But how do you look at...
The officials in the court looked at each other secretly, bewildered...
No one knows what Emperor Hong De will say or do next.
What do you want Qinxing Hou Leng Xian to do by asking him to come?
Since they all don't understand and the emperor doesn't say anything, then they should just keep their mouths shut... and watch.
Prince Yi, who was standing beside Xiao Jingyu, gently nudged Xiao Jingyu with his elbow, leaned close to Xiao Jingyu's ear and whispered softly: "Ah Yu, since the emperor's uncle has granted you a marriage with the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Qinxing's mansion, the Marquis of Qinxing is your father-in-law, Taishan!
A Yu, can't you please show a little concern?
Let that Miss Leng... oh, your little fiancée see the sincerity of you as her fiancé.
It's the son-in-law's job to take care of his father-in-law, isn't it? "
Xiao Jingyu acted as if he didn't hear Prince Yi Xiao Jingyi's jokes at all. He didn't even glance at him, and his facial expression didn't change at all.
Xiao Jingyi felt bored and stopped talking awkwardly.
