CEO Comes from Ancient Times - C234
It’s snowing!
Snow started to fall from the sky as soon as the carriage left the Xi Residence.
It was the first snow of the year, falling endlessly from the dark sky, white, thin, light and beautiful!
Xi Sanmo liked it very much. He happily stretched out his hand to the window, and the pure white snowflakes fell into her palm piece by piece. It was icy cold, but it couldn’t withstand the temperature of her palm.
Chu Nantian rode on his horse at the side and looked at Xi Sumo quietly. Tonight, she was exceptionally beautiful, her beauty was as normal as before, there was no need to be luxurious, with just a simple white dress, a gentle sweep of her eyebrows, and a little powder, she was graceful and graceful.
Her plump forehead was plastered against a golden-flowered pearl, flickering in the snow. She smiled and raised her head to look at the snow that fluttered in the sky, her dark eyes flashing with the radiance of the spirit energy. She seemed to become even more spirited, like a fairy floating in the snow, so beautiful that no one would be able to take their eyes off her.
Stupid, Chu Nantian looked at her greedily. He wished that he could walk this road forever, wished that he could walk beside her for the rest of his life.
“It’s often snowing in the winter in the prefectural country, and the snow is especially heavy there. Every year, there will be an Ice Carving Conference there and you can even skate there. You will definitely like it there. I’ll take you there this year, okay? ” Chu Nantian was confused by her smiling face and couldn’t help saying this much.
Xi Sumo retracted his gaze and smiled helplessly at Chu Nantian, “Huo Li doesn’t like the snow. He’s not happy with every snow.”
Huo Li, it was still Huo Li!
These days, she hadn’t said a single word to Huo Li. He thought that she had forgotten about him and that she was going to give up on him, but in such a quiet and beautiful time, the first person she thought of was actually Huo Li. It was as if Huo Li had always been hanging in her mind and had never disappeared.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve heard you mention the prince, but I’m not used to it. Miss Xi, do you like the prince that much? He treats you like this all the time, yet you still want to put him first?” Chu Nantian’s tone did not hide his disappointment.
Xi Sanmo smiled sweetly and nodded, “I love him a lot. The first time I saw him, he had sucked all of my soul away. That feeling was as if I had loved him for tens of thousands of years. These days, it wasn’t that she didn’t want to talk about him, but she was afraid that if she did, she would be drowned in thoughts of him. But it’s different now. I’ll be at the palace in a little while, and once I’m at the palace, I’ll be able to meet the prince. Young Master Chu, is it snowing in the winter in the Kingdom of Yin Mountain? If it’s not snowing, I and your highness can accompany you to the Kingdom of Yin Mountain. We can roam the country of Yin Mountain, speak freely, and have fun without thinking! ”
Chu Nantian was no longer in the mood. All his emotions were disrupted by Huo Li’s two words. He gave a “En” and turned his head to look in front of him. Not far away was the Imperial Palace.
Tonight, in that place brimming with light, one’s fate would be decided. That woman, was none other than Xi Sanmo!
But Chu Nantian, he really wanted to keep Xi Sanmo by his side. Even though he knew she wouldn’t be happy, he still wanted to force her to stay by his side and take her far away!
Can you let me take you far away? Dodge the Young Wolf Lord, avoid Huo Li, and live a peaceful life with me, Chu Nantian, for the rest of my life!
The imperial palace was on guard against the forest, all the imperial guards were walking at five steps, the eunuchs were carefully leading the way, Chu Nantian and Xi Sumo walked side by side, the imperial guards on both sides cast curious and confused looks at them.
They knew Xi Sanmo, but not Chu Nantian.
Chu Nantian was very handsome, his posture was straight, and his facial features were exquisite. This beauty was different from Huo Li’s enchanter, and from the sweetness of the crown prince, his beauty was isolated and beautiful. It was a beauty that could not be fused into the surroundings, nor could it be fused into him. His beauty was something that could not be ignored even if one wanted to. He had a unique pride and dignity, but he also had the prestige of a ninth heaven.
Who is he?
“Eunuch, please inform the emperor that I’ve brought a friend with me to attend the banquet and ask for his permission to enter the palace with us.” In front of the magnificent hall, Xi Sanmo stopped at the foot of the stairs.
The eunuch bowed respectfully and replied. Everyone in the palace knew that Xi Sanmo was an important figure and that they could not afford to offend him. Only someone as important as her could arrive late and sit together with the ministers.
One had to know that the imperial concubines and the female servants had long since gathered at the side of the hall and used a screen to block them from seeing this man of all stripes.
The eunuch climbed the steps and entered the bustling main hall, reporting to the emperor who was sitting at the top.
The emperor was a little surprised, but Huo Li frowned unhappily. He seemed to be able to guess who the friend that Xi Sanmo brought was.
“Yes!” Since she brought people to attend this important meeting between the two countries, it means that she has her own ideas. After thinking for a moment, the emperor agreed. He also waved his hand to temporarily withdraw the dancers and to stop the music.
The closer they got, the more chaotic her heart became because she knew that tonight’s confrontation was not with a young wolf lord, but rather with a country. Tonight’s war was a tough one, only winning and not losing.
On the left was the official of the imperial court, led by the crown prince. Huo Li followed suit and sat in a row according to the rank of official. On the right was the envoy of the Prefecture Country, led by the Young Wolf Lord.
The moment they stepped into the hall, everyone’s expressions were different. Some were surprised, some gasped in surprise, and some even started whispering to each other. Some even clenched their fists, so much so that their eyes were burning with hatred.
Chu Nantian was calm and Xi Sanmo pretended to ignore him. The two of them walked to the center and knelt down in accordance to etiquette, kowtowing and bowing, “Your majesty, long live our Emperor!”
The emperor waved his hand and chuckled. His tone was incomparably loving as he said, “Rise!”
“Thank you, your majesty!” Xi Sumo and Chu Nantian bowed again to show their gratitude and stood up, but they did not dare to look straight at Long Yan, staring at the sky.
“Xi Sanmo, who are your friends?” The Emperor didn’t know Chu Nantian, he only felt that Chu Nantian was very handsome and had a noble aura. He was definitely not an ordinary person.
Xi Sumo smiled faintly, “He is a wealthy merchant from the State of Yin Mountain who came here to look for some suitable goods. A few days ago, this subject’s daughter met Young Master Chu while she was out sightseeing, and even brought Young Master Chu here for a few days. These days, Prince was not at home, but Young Master Chu was accompanying his daughter through these frightening days. ”
Huo Li was furious. He clenched his fists, revealing his white joints.
The emperor, however, pretended to not understand and nodded. “Then what is your purpose in bringing him here? Do you know that tonight’s meeting is a confidential meeting between the two countries and it is forbidden for it to be leaked to outsiders? ”
Xi Sumo said slowly, “Of course I know, but Young Master Chu is not an unrelated person. He is my friend and he can give me support, direction and even find the way to tomorrow. Young Master Chu is only accompanying this subject’s daughter, to give her courage, he will not hear things that should not be heard, much less spread out.
Chu Nantian gently looked down at her, and she also calmly looked at him. The two of them silently looked at each other, and their gazes met. Outsiders only thought of them as having feelings for each other, but Xi Sanmo knew that their hearts were completely different and had never been the same.
He was so angry that he wanted to flip the table in front of him. The young master was right, she really did change her mind, and in just a few days, Chu Nantian became her courage and became her direction, her path for tomorrow.
Did Xi Sanmo have to be like this? Do you have to make This King’s heart cold? Face to face, behind the scenes. Is it fun?
The crown prince was also stunned hearing this. He began to believe that his sister-in-law was cheating!
The Emperor did not know what Xi Sanmo was thinking. After pondering for a while, he tapped the table with his fingers and said, “It was played by San Mo to give a seat to Young Master Chu.”
Quickly, two eunuchs brought over a new table from the side. According to the rules, people like Chu Nantian, who were not important officials in the imperial court and did not have any power, should only be at the bottom.
However, Xi Sanmo shook his head and pointed to the front of Young Wolf Lord with a smile as he said in a domineering tone, “This subject wants to raise my head so that I can see Young Master Chu. Eunuch, please place Young Master Chu’s seat there.”
The surrounding people made a “hua” sound. It was not in accordance with the rules and etiquette.
The ministers of the imperial court were whispering to each other, discussing with each other.
The envoys from the region countries also looked at each other in dismay, not daring to believe what Xi Sanmo had said.
Huo Li couldn’t help but want to make a fool of himself. Luckily, the crown prince was quick enough and held him down.
The eunuch froze in place, not knowing what to do. The emperor also didn’t understand Xi Sanmo’s thoughts. He quietly looked at her and after a long moment of thought, he finally said, “Yes!”
Xi Sanmo heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Chu Nantian, gently smiling, “Young Master Chu, please take a seat, it will be hard on you tonight.”
Chu Nan Tian’s emotions were in disarray, so he did not say much. He only smiled lightly, then walked towards his seat. After he sat down, she started walking towards Huo Li’s direction.
Just as he was about to turn around, the emperor suddenly said, “Xi Sanmo has yet to meet the young wolf lord of the region!”
Without even looking at the Young Wolf Lord, she insisted on turning around. With her back facing the Young Wolf Lord, she blessed herself towards Huo Li and said intimately, “Mo’er greets your highness, your highness, how have you been these past few days? Have you thought about Mo’er like this?”
Huo Li was originally angry at her. It could be seen that she didn’t care about the Young Wolf Head at all. It was as if she hadn’t seen him. The anger in her heart dissipated quite a bit as she stiffly replied, “Alright.”
“Then have you ever discarded the three letters that Mo’er wrote to the Prince? Did you ever bring it with you? ” Xi Sanmo ignored everyone in the hall and only looked at Huo Li. She was doing it on purpose, purposely acting arrogant and disrespectful, purposely not putting the Young Wolf Lord in her eyes.
Huo Li knew that Xi Sanmo had a big temper and knew that he was very brave. However, wasn’t this a little too fat? He didn’t understand what Xi Sanmo was thinking so he nodded again and said, “Yes!”
“Your highness, could you give this letter to Mo’er for her to use?” Xi Sanmo asked with a smile.
“But!” Huo Li answered.
“Mo’er, can you sit by the prince’s side?” Mi Sanmo asked again with a smile.
“But!” Huo Li answered forcefully.
“Thank you, Prince!” As Mian Sanming sat down, Huo Li took out the three letters that the Three Moans had sent him from his bosom.
Xi Sumo took them and looked through them one by one. He picked out one of them and tilted his head to ask Huo Li as if no one was around. Seeing this sentence, what thoughts does Your Highness have in mind? ”
“It feels quite familiar, as if I’ve used it before. Ever since you sent this letter, This King had always dreamed of a sea, of This King sitting on the reef as if he was waiting for someone, and also as if he was thinking about something. This King has always wanted to return home and ask you, why did you write such a sentence to This King? ” As Huo Li spoke, his eyes became misty as if his soul had already left his body.
He didn’t actually think about it for any reason, but he suddenly thought about it. He felt that it was very suitable, so he wrote it down to see if he could remind Huo Li of something!
Not bad, really. I remembered something. Come on, Huo Li!
Xi Sanmo did not tell the truth, but made a mischievous pout and said, “About this, it’s a long story. If Your Highness wants to hear it, I estimate that you want to say it for two hours, two hours, do you still want to hear it? If he had to say a bit more, it could take up to four hours. After saying those four hours, I’m afraid that they have all fallen asleep. Once they fall asleep, I will be able to bring the prince back to his residence to rest. “Your Highness, it’s better if you listen. This way, everyone can easily …”
Finally, the people of the region state could not bear to watch any longer. He heavily slapped the table, stood up from the crowd of people, and scolded: “Miss Xi, when the two countries meet, after paying respects to the host king, we have to pay our respects to the head of the guest country. This is the rule. But after you acknowledge the Emperor, you turned a blind eye to the Young Wolf Lord. I want to ask you, is it because the heavens have no rules or etiquette, or because you are just an ignorant, reckless woman. ”
Finally, someone was tricked. She was doing it on purpose to ignore everything. She purposely flirted with Huo Li and coerced the other countries to make trouble. That way, she would have the right to fire.
She put down the letter in her hand and lifted her head to look at him. Her clear eyes were no longer gentle, but instead had the coldness of winter. Chu Nantian had never seen anything unfamiliar, and Huo Li had never seen anything stronger.
She said in a tone that was neither humble nor haughty, “Since you know that I am an ignorant and reckless woman, why do you need to question me? If you say that there is no etiquette in the heavens, then where is the general situation in your country? In this hall, there is a throne high above, and a crown prince is protecting the field. If you come out to condemn me, then where is the throne high above? ”
“If there’s no one to discipline you with, I’ll come out and discipline you …”
Xi Sanmo coldly cut him off, “Teach me? What qualifications do you have? If I were to marry Prince Wei, I would be the grand Imperial Concubine. If I were to marry the Young Wolf Head, I would be the Crown Prince’s wife in the Domain, and would also become the queen of a country with a population lower than ten thousand people. No matter what sort of status I have, I will always be above you. If you teach me, what qualifications do you have? ”
“You …”
“I am sitting at the right place, and I am not afraid of the shadow slanting. Young Wolf Lord, not bad, he is the head of Guest Nation. That is why I received you with courtesies to the Emperor and to the Crown Prince, without neglecting you in the slightest. But who was it that pestered the prince? But who would casually guess my innocence in the East Palace and say that I’m here to have sex with Young Master Chu? But who was it that used such despicable methods to force the estrangement between the two and force the king to make a move, forcing him to keep his feet, preventing him from returning even if he had a residence to return to? “Now, teach me manners. Please show me the etiquette of a country. If you want to teach me, you should also take out your rules. If you can’t take them out, then shut up.”
Awesome! The Crown Prince applauded!
The emperor had shrewd eyes, but he didn’t say anything. He had said long ago that Xi Sanmo was not easy to deal with.
Chu Nantian looked at her from afar with a complicated expression in his eyes.
The Young Wolf Lord’s face was covered in an expressionless mask. He clenched his hand into a fist and placed it on the table.
When he saw the Young Wolf Lord clench his fists, Huo Li let go of his feelings and grabbed onto Xi Sanmo’s hand. He linked his fingers with hers, giving her strength.
Xi Sanmo smiled at him with gratitude.
However, the tall and sturdy man was choked by Xi Sanmo and did not say anything for a long time. After a long while, his face flushed red and he forced himself to say, “You …”
Xi Sanmo immediately cut him off again, not giving him the chance to speak, “What about me? Am I wrong? Did I wrongly accuse you? Every word was true, every witness was there. You can admit that I won’t pursue the matter like you. It would be too dishonorable! ”
“You, you, you, you … You do not respect the Young Wolf Lord, and even said that the Realm Kingdom is unreasonable. Tonight is a negotiation between two countries, but from you, I can’t see any respect, nor can I see any sincerity … ”
“No need for you to see, because you are nothing!”
The man was anxious and looked for reinforcements, “Young Wolf Lord …”
“Young Wolf Master, how many Young Wolf Masters are in the region?” Xi Sanmo began to shake the first trump card
The man was startled. “What do you mean?”
“No one has ever seen the face behind the mask. No one has seen it, how would I know? The masked man sitting upright is the true Young Wolf Lord of your region. A person’s face is unique, but a mask can have limitless effects. If I wear such a mask, would that mean I am the Young Wolf Lord in your eyes? ”
“How dare you!” The man was furious.
“The Young Wolf Lord lost his mother at the age of two. Even with the protection of the Emperor, he was still unable to escape the battle at the harem. He was young, but that didn’t mean he had a low IQ. May I ask, was the fire that burned the face of the Young Wolf Master at the age of five a natural disaster or was it man-made? ”
With a boom, the entire audience was shocked. Even the young wolf master’s hand nervously crushed a porcelain wine cup, revealing the faces of all the envoys from the other countries.
Everyone was looking at Xi Sanmo and Huo Li was also staring at her. It wasn’t just an accident, but a shock. What did she know? What did he find out? What was it that made her so confident and aggressive?
