iginally somewhat noisy hall to fall into an eerie silence. Everyone looked towards the door unanimously, and even Xuan Yuan Luocheng slightly turned his head, temporarily withdrawing his gaze from Su...“Brother, is there still room for negotiation You know my temperament, I'd be bored to death at such a tedious banquet.” Ugh, he just said how enthusiastic Brother was today and wanted to play chess. He had ulterior motives all along.

"No!" Unfortunately, the only response he received was a cold and emotionless "No."

"Elder Brother..."

"No negotiation!"

"Brother..."

"Even calling for father wouldn't help, I have to go."

"Sister…" He smiled, showing a row of pearly white teeth, and sweetly called out to him.

"..." A dark line flashed across Xuan Yuan Luo Chen's mind, and a silver tooth almost shattered.

Sister He really dares to call her that!

Emperor XuanYuan LuoChen's face was dark, "No matter how eloquent you are today, you must leave with me!"

"Brother Emperor, you clearly promised your younger brother that he wouldn't have to worry about court affairs and could be a carefree king..." Someone still tried to argue their point.

"If you don't go, that's fine too." As soon as these words were spoken, Xuan Yuan Mo felt a sense of relief. But very quickly, his smile froze. "However, Mo, you're not young anymore. It's time for you to start a family. This time, at the Four Nations Grand Ceremony, princesses and noble ladies from all countries will be present. At that time, I will carefully choose a princess for you. Don't even think about running away from marriage. Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I'll bring you back!"

"Dear elder brother, for the sake of Ximing nation's mountains and rivers, let alone attending your birthday banquet, even if it means my younger brother facing a mountain of knives or plunging into a sea of fire, I will gladly accept it without hesitation. Please, elder brother, allow me to go."

A bead of cold sweat rolled down from the corner of his temple. Xuan Yuan Mo immediately knelt on one knee, his face contorted into a mask of patriotic loyalty. Two strands of tears, like noodles, meandered down his heart as he thought, "My imperial brother truly knows how to hit my weak spot!"

"Well, let me consider it..." Xuan Yuan Luo Chen's face was cold and stern. A flicker of a smile crossed his amber eyes before vanishing just as quickly.

This kid, he's been way too spoiled lately. It's time to teach him a lesson.

"... Xuan Yuan Mo had a faint black line appear behind his head, his petrified expression instantly softened again. He couldn't believe it, Brother Emperor was really serious this time"

"Elder brother, as your younger brother, it is my duty to be present. I humbly request you to grant me permission, Elder Brother," Xuan Yuan Mo said with a resolute voice.

"If you think this way, I am pleased." Xuen Yuan Luo Chen helped him up from the ground and smiled faintly, "Get up, prepare well these few days."

Xuan Yuan Mo's face turned ashen, his frustration was palpable. Suddenly, he thought of something and smiled, "Your Majesty, this humble brother heard that from Dong Yue Kingdom, there isn't only Su Ziyi, but also that ugly princess who looks like a green demon."

Xuan Yuan Luo Chen glanced at him with a sneer, coldly snorted, "This brat Xiao Qi actually dared to elope from his marriage, it seems I have been too lenient with him!"

"Haha, the other party is the famous silly princess. Xia Qi wouldn't run away." Thinking about how that silly princess had been clinging to Xuanyuan Che for the past few years, Xuanyuan Mo found it amusing.

Hearing the schadenfreude in his voice, Xuan Yuan Luo Chen gave him a cold glance and said in a frigid tone, "These few days, take good care of Xiao Qi. If he runs away, I'll have you marry Dong Yue instead of him."

"Come on, brother! What does this have to do with me" Xuan Yuan Mo widened his eyes, but there was no hint of joking in his expression.

, then he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured, your younger brother will keep a close eye on him. Even when using the restroom, I will be right beside him every step of the way, ensuring he doesn't escape."

"Well, it's good that you have this realization!" A certain emperor nodded in satisfaction.help me out and keep watch." 。“He still felt there weren’t enough fish, not enough to eat. Xuanyuan Mo continued to beat the water with his palm force, driving the fish out of the lake.” 。Then, Xuan...
