Married To The Cruel Crown Prince Chapter 683 - Are You Complaining?

Chapter 683 - Are You Complaining?

Yin Na congratulated w.a.n.g Hao for his marriage with Bai Yaling. "Let's go to Father's room. We need to discuss many things," w.a.n.g Hao dragged Yin Na with her to w.a.n.g f.u.xing's room.

w.a.n.g f.u.xing asked to bring the tea to a servant for them and looked at w.a.n.g Hao. "The guest list is long. Will the Emperor and the Princes attend this marriage?" w.a.n.g f.u.xing asked his son.

"I am not sure about the Emperor, since the Empress is pregnant, but the Princes and their respective wives will surely be invited," w.a.n.g Hao said gladly. He turned to look at Yin Na and said, "the Empress wants to meet you. Tomorrow we will go to the Palace."

"Yin Na cannot go tomorrow," w.a.n.g f.u.xing stated.

"Why?" w.a.n.g Hao asked with confusion.

"Yin Na will visit Xu's residence tomorrow with me. My old friend, Xu Niang, and I have decided to take our friendly relations.h.i.+p to another level. Yin Na will marry the son of Xu Niang," w.a.n.g f.u.xing proclaimed and smiled.

w.a.n.g Hao was shocked to learn about that. "Father, why did you do that?" He suddenly turned furious. "Forgive me," he lowered his eyes and continued, "Father, Yin Na has feelings for Huo Jin. Don't rush her marriage. She is merely eighteen years old."

"Huo Jin is reluctant not to accept Yin Na. Also, Yin Na spends most of her time with Huo Jin, that's why she thinks only Huo Jin is a nice man around her. If she will meet Xu Niang's son, she will truly be impressed," w.a.n.g f.u.xing stated and sipped the tea from the cup.

w.a.n.g Hao glanced at his sister. "Yin Na, do you want to meet Xu Feng Jin?" he asked her. For him, her opinion mattered a lot.

"Yes, Brother w.a.n.g. The two elders have decided on a meeting for us, so I go with it," Yin Na p.r.o.nounced. w.a.n.g f.u.xing got delighted by the answer of his daughter.

"Yin Na, you told me that--"

"Brother w.a.n.g," She interrupted in the middle and continued, "Whatever Father decides for me will be best."

As w.a.n.g Hao had thought, Yin Na could not oppose the decision of her father. He had told Huo Jin not to do this, then why he could not accept Yin Na's feelings. It bothered him and at the same time, upset him.

Huo Jin, who had come from the market, ended up hearing their conversation.

"My Lord, Huo Jin wants to see you," a servant said from outside.

"Send him in!" w.a.n.g f.u.xing p.r.o.nounced. The door opened, and Huo Jin stepped in.

"Father, the tailor will come tomorrow. He has been sick for a few days," Huo Jin informed him.

"Oh!" "Come, Huo Jin. Have tea with us," w.a.n.g f.u.xing told him. Huo Jin nodded and stepped forward when w.a.n.g Hao stood up from the cus.h.i.+on.

"Father, you can have tea with Yin Na. I need to go back to the palace to inform Princess Bai about the decided day for our marriage," w.a.n.g Hao said and bowed. He turned to look at Huo Jin and said, "follow me."

w.a.n.g Hao dashed out of the room. w.a.n.g f.u.xing gestured to Huo Jin to follow w.a.n.g Hao. He bowed and went after w.a.n.g Hao.

w.a.n.g Hao hopped on the horse while Huo Jin took another one. "Congratulations, General w.a.n.g," Huo Jin wished him. "Your efforts succeeded," he stated.

w.a.n.g Hao had gripped the reins on the horse tightly and pulled them. The horse started to run at a high speed. Huo Jin had realized by then that General w.a.n.g was upset with him.

They reached the Palace soon. "The Empress wants to meet you. Go to the Northern Palace," w.a.n.g Hao informed him. Initially, w.a.n.g Hao had thought to tell about this to Huo Jin later, but today's incident had made it indispensable.

"Me?" Huo Jin pointed his pointer finger at himself and raised his brow.

"Yes," w.a.n.g Hao said. "Go to the Northern Palace. I need to see Princess Bai Yaling," he said and walked away.

Huo Jin reached the Northern Palace, but could not find the Empress's chamber. He stopped a palace maid and asked her about it. The Palace Maid took Huo Jin to the chamber, where both the Emperor and the Empress were residing.

"Thank you," Huo Jin thanked her.

He was slightly nervous because it was his first time to see the Empress this close. 'What does Her Majesty want to talk about?' He wondered.

"Huo Jin!" Eunuch Xing-Fu called out his name, who was coming from his left side, with a maidservant.

Huo Jin greeted him when Xing-Fu asked him about his sudden visit.

"General w.a.n.g informed me that the Empress wants to see me," Huo Jin told him.

"Ahh. I will ask the Empress first," Xing-Fu said and told the maidservant to follow him, who had a tray in her hand. It had a bowl that was filled with a healthy potion.

After five minutes, Xing-Fu came out. "Come in," he said. Huo Jin nodded and stepped inside the chamber.

He found the chamber was majestic, and he could hear the soft voice of the Empress. He reached the chamber, but kept his eyes low. "Greetings to Your Majesty," Huo Jin said while looking down.

"Huo Jin, take a seat," Ying Lili told him. He looked at his left and sat down on the chaise. During this entire time, he kept his gaze low.

"What type of tea would you like to take?" Ying Lili asked him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. But I do not want to take tea," Huo Jin answered. He found himself sweating and he did not know the reason behind it. He clutched the fabric of his dress on his knees.

Ying Lili found out that Huo Jin was not only nervous but also scared of her. This was the first time she saw someone intimidated by her.

"Eunuch Xing-Fu, please give the water to Huo Jin," Ying Lili urged.

Xing-Fu quickly went towards the table and poured the water into a silver gla.s.s. He brought it to Huo Jin, who was shocked to see the silver gla.s.s.

"Isn't there any normal gla.s.s?" Huo Jin asked Xing-Fu.

"Are you complaining?" He heard a familiar voice and it was of none other than Sheng Li.
