Children of Loulan

Chapter 311 I Will Never Let You Down

She originally thought that her father had successfully escaped and might be able to live a few days of peace and stability for the rest of his life. However, what she never expected was that her father actually chose to come back on his own initiative. At this time, Concubine Xian was already in tears. Her beautiful eyes looked at her father affectionately, her lips trembling slightly, and she gently called out: "Father..."

Hearing his daughter's cry, the Prime Minister hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hands and carefully helped the kneeling Concubine up. He comforted her softly: "Okay, child, don't cry anymore. Isn't your father back? Our family is finally reunited!"

At the same time, when the other members of the prime minister's family saw the prime minister appear, they all opened their mouths in astonishment, totally unable to believe what was happening before their eyes. Then, they all came to their senses and shouted in unison with great excitement: "Father!" "Grandfather!" "Master!" For a moment, the whole scene was filled with the joy and sorrow of reunion.

The prime minister stood there majestically, his eyes like torches, slowly sweeping over everyone present. Suddenly, his eyes stopped at a certain place, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face - the fourth brother was missing! He couldn't help but frown slightly, secretly thinking about the mystery that might be hidden in this.

After a moment, the Prime Minister's brows relaxed slightly, as if he had understood everything in an instant. Then, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said loudly: "Well, our family is finally reunited here today. Even if the road to hell is waiting for us ahead, let's go forward together!"

As night fell and the lights came on, the king sat in the imperial study, the flickering candlelight illuminated his stern face. At this moment, Ankar walked into the study with steady steps, saluted the king, and stood respectfully aside.

The king's face was as gloomy as water, and he asked expressionlessly: "Have all the rebels been killed?" His voice was as cold as the wind in the cold night.

Ankar quickly bowed and replied: "My king, all the rebels have been wiped out, totaling more than 10,000 people!" After saying that, he raised his head slightly and stole a glance at the king's expression.

The king nodded slightly and continued to ask, "What about the prime minister?" His words revealed his concern for the prime minister's fate.

Ankar hurriedly bowed his head again and responded: "Your Majesty, after all the rebels were brought to justice, the Prime Minister knew that he could not escape the blame and took the initiative to surrender himself! Now his whole family is in jail!"

The king slowly put down the delicate brush in his hand, his expression became serious, his eyes were like torches, staring straight at Ankar in front of him, and he said solemnly: "Well, my dear, you have worked really hard today. Go back and have a good rest! After I have dealt with the affairs of the prime minister's family, I will reward you according to your merits!"

Upon hearing this, Ankar hurriedly bowed and responded respectfully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consideration. I will obey your orders and take my leave now!" After that, he turned around and left the hall with steady steps.

The king stared at Ankar's figure as he gradually went away until he disappeared. After a moment of silence, he suddenly lowered his voice and turned to Aisan beside him and asked, "What are the three princes busy with today?"

Aishan did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly took two quick steps forward, approached the king, and answered respectfully: "Your Majesty, today His Royal Highness the King is in his mansion preparing for the wedding for his housekeeper and the princess's personal maid!"

The king raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked in surprise, "Oh? Are you planning a wedding? And you chose today as the day?"

Aishan nodded slightly and continued to respond: "That's right, my king. Today, the Xuanwang Mansion is very lively, with lights and decorations everywhere, and a joyous scene."

The king nodded slightly to show his approval, and then asked, "So what is the current situation of King Xin and King Cheng?"

Aishan hurriedly bowed and responded, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Xin has been staying at home for the past few days, drinking alone in his house all day long, and rarely steps out of the house. Even today, it is still the same. As for His Royal Highness Prince Cheng, he is still having fun with his many friends in the martial arts world. However, when he heard that someone was planning to rebel, he was not afraid at all, and immediately led his friends to help suppress the rebellion. Fortunately, he was successfully dissuaded in the end, and then returned to the palace."

After hearing this, the king fell into deep thought. After a long silence, he slowly opened his mouth and ordered: "Quickly inform the queen and Concubine Ru that after the rebellion is quelled, we will start to select princesses for them. Concubine Ru is the biological mother of King Cheng, so she will be responsible for selecting a princess for King Cheng; and the queen needs to take on the important task of selecting a princess for King Xin. After all the candidates are determined, I will personally issue an order to grant the marriage!"

Upon hearing this, Aisan's face instantly broke into a joyful smile, and he quickly responded, "Oh my, this is such a great joy! I will go to the harem immediately and convey your order to the queen and Concubine Ru!" After that, Aisan turned around and left in a hurry, his steps so light that he seemed to be flying.

At this time, the Xuanwang Mansion was decorated with lights and colors, and the atmosphere was full of joy and peace. Bai Xi, wearing a bright red wedding dress, walked lightly to the door of the new house. He stretched out his slender fingers, gently pushed open the door, and stepped into this room full of happiness and expectation.

After entering the bridal chamber, Bai Xi walked straight to the bride who was sitting on the bed, and then slowly sat down. His eyes fell on the bride, who was wearing a gorgeous wedding dress, a delicate phoenix crown on her head, and a face as beautiful as a peach blossom. Bai Xi carefully raised his hand and gently lifted the red veil on Daer's head. In an instant, a face as beautiful as a flower appeared before his eyes. Daer was particularly beautiful today, with a shy blush climbing up her fair cheeks, as tempting as a ripe apple. When she saw Bai Xi, she lowered her head shyly, not daring to look directly into his fiery gaze.

After the matchmaker said a series of auspicious words with a smile on her face, Baixi and Daer picked up the wine cups that had been prepared on the table. They crossed their arms, stared into each other's eyes, slowly raised the wine cups to their lips, and drank them all. This cup of wine not only symbolized that they would become husband and wife from now on, but also meant that they would support each other and walk hand in hand in the future.

After drinking the wedding wine, the matchmaker and the maids tactfully left the wedding room, leaving Baixi and Daer alone. At this moment, the room was so quiet that only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.

Bai Xi moved closer to Dale, reached out and gently held her boneless little hands, and said in a low and affectionate voice: "Dal, thank you for choosing me, thank you for giving me the opportunity to take care of you for the rest of my life. From today on, you are my wife, I will do my best to protect and love you, please believe me, I, Bai Xi, will never let you down in this life. If one day I break my oath, let the heavens send down thunder to punish me!"
