“We four countries have rules and unspoken agreements, we don’t do marriage alliances.” The King looked at Xuan Lin with a touch of arrogance. “Also, even if there is one, we are powerful enough not to let our princess marry anyone from your country. Prince, it is the first time for you to be in our country, and you may not have much idea of our rules and principles.”
“…”
“You are a young man, so we don’t need to go deeper into your offense, but you should never let me hear any such words again.” The King threw a glance at Xuan Lin, looking disdainful.
The King would not have been so arrogant in the past, but today, the Saint Divine Land was more than the most powerful land. They even had a Phoenix Girl! So what was the point of being afraid of anyone? There was no need to fear the combination of the other three countries! They were never going to fear anything.
Xuan Lin laughed and showed some fury. He had lost his own face back at the pitch, and he was thinking about saving his face by marrying a princess. That was a childish move of his, and if the King had been modest enough, he would not have to marry a princess from their country, but seeing the King’s disdainful look as well as the minor Lord who was laughing at him…
Xuan Lin felt rather annoyed. He lowered his face and said, “You are sure about that? What if I say that I have an exchange condition for you? Would you think about what you said?”
The King looked at Xuan Lin in surprise.
An exchange condition? Normally, he would have turned that down directly, but when he noticed the confident look on this prince’s face, he thought that maybe, there was something they would like to exchange.
After all, the other three countries were always trying their best to flatter the Saint Divine Land.
This prince from the North Qi Land looked different. He seemed quite arrogant, even in front of him. If he was so arrogant, then it basically meant that he was confident enough.
The King frowned and nodded. “Just say it.”
Seeing that the King was showing curiosity, Xuan Lin started to look proud. He glanced at Zhou Huailing and said nonchalantly, “That is good, but I only speak with the King, not with anyone else.”
“You…” Zhou Huailing became so furious that he would very much like to argue with Xuan Lin.
The King was at the edge of hearing what Xuan Lin had to say, so he did not care about Zhou Huailing’s emotions either. So he turned to Zhou Huailing and said, “Lord Ling, just leave us alone, me and the Prince have some words to share.”
“Father!” Zhou Huailing looked at the King in disbelief and sorrow. His father not only ignored him, but also intended to drive him out!
The King frowned slightly. Lord Ling was becoming less and less open-minded.
The most important thing was to handle what was happening right now, and he was not even aware of that. So childish! He looked at him with disbelief.
So he turned to the Eunuch next to him. “Take Lord Ling out, and shut the door. My conversation with the Prince from North Qi should not be disturbed by anyone else.”
“Okay!” The Eunuch took a step forward and said politely, “Lord Ling, let’s leave.”
Zhou Huailing was not at all willing to leave at this moment.
“Lord Ling, it seems that Lord Yu is in the court today, you can turn to him for some fun, if you are bored.” The Eunuch said calmly.
Zhou Huailing got up directly.
He should not have relaxed. The King did not like Zhou Huaijin, but that did not mean that Zhou Huaiyu was not in a contest with him. Right, he should have behaved more maturely.
The moment Zhou Huailing left, the King said, “Prince from North Qi, you can speak now..”
