I became a mermaid egg and saved the Imperial Marshal

Qi Yan was still thinking while waiting for him to come over. Should she just pretend not to know him or give him a fake greeting?

Then he realized that he was overthinking, because halfway through the journey, Huo Linyuan suddenly stopped.

It was at this time that Qi Yan noticed that Jun Yan and the emperor had returned to the banquet hall at some point.

From a distance, he saw a few people talking to each other for a few words, and then the emperor turned and left, and not long after, Huo Linyuan also left.

At this time, Li Jia put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Let's go. Daddy will take you to recognize the power of the interstellar space."

This was also one of the purposes of their attending this banquet, mainly to let Qi Yan show his face in front of these dignitaries and take the opportunity to make his identity public.

After they left, Olena's face became darker and darker. Liga's attitude of not taking her seriously from beginning to end made Olena very angry, but she couldn't do anything about it.

On the other side, Li Jia and Qi Yan were moving among the crowd, and soon a group of people followed them.

It has to be said that Li Jia's communication skills are extraordinary, and under his leadership, Qi Yan also behaved appropriately, gentle and well-behaved.

Therefore, wherever they went, it was bustling with activity, as if they were continuing the popularity that Huo Linyuan had just received when he appeared on the stage.

The front hall of the palace is where the emperor works. It is separated from the banquet venue and is heavily guarded, so no one else will come.

Since Lanxi expressed his loyalty to Si Mingyu, Si Mingyu gave him the right to walk freely in the palace.

However, today's banquet was a torture for Lanxi.

In the past, he would probably have been the focus of the party, but ever since Si Mingyu issued a statement to distance himself from him, he has become a complete laughing stock.

This is also the reason why he was hiding here alone when the banquet was in full swing.

Lan Xi, who was originally feeling unhappy about her fate, suddenly saw Huo Linyuan.

Huo Linyuan's tall and straight figure and handsome face that looked like a god descending from heaven made Lan Xi feel as if she had seen the light of salvation coming into her life.

Watching Huo Linyuan turn the corner from the corridor, he suddenly came to his senses and quickly chased after him.

"marshal!"

Lan Xi had never felt his heart beating so fast before. Being able to be so close to Huo Linyuan was something he had always dreamed of.

Just as he was feeling nervous and excited, Huo Linyuan stopped, turned around and looked at him.

Lan Xi was extremely surprised, but she also showed the right amount of reserve: "I'm so glad to meet you. Last time in the Pharmacy Department, you said to me..."

He seemed lost in memories, with a shy smile on his face.

However, Huo Linyuan frowned slightly and interrupted him: "This is an important place in the palace. You are not allowed to enter without permission. Since you are a student invited to the banquet, please leave immediately as this is your first offense. This will not happen again."

After saying that, Huo Linyuan ignored him and turned away.

Lan Xi didn't know how he walked out of the front hall. He walked to the east building in a daze. At this moment, he was completely immersed in the fact that "Huo Linyuan didn't remember him."

Huo Linyuan's indifference was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Lan Xi pushed open a door and walked in drowsily.

Although Huo Linyuan's attitude was actually no different from usual, it was a devastating blow to Lan Xi who was trapped in wishful thinking.

He fell to the foot of the bed, suddenly laughing crazily, and then suddenly covering his face and remaining silent.

Amid this mixture of extreme emotions, his consciousness gradually fell into chaos and a heat rose throughout his body.

Lanxi was suddenly startled when he noticed something unusual in his body. As a half-orc, he had a keen sense of smell, and there were many men with ill intentions around him.

So he knew what had happened almost immediately. He had just opened a guest room without checking it carefully, and only now discovered that the room was filled with hallucinogenic Dielan.

Without time to think, Lanxi pinched her leg hard, then stumbled to her feet and prepared to leave the room.

However, just as he reached the door, he heard footsteps outside.

Then the door opened and Si Mingyu walked in.

Both of them were stunned, obviously they didn't expect to see each other here.

"Why are you here?" Si Mingyu frowned and looked around the room. When he found that Lanxi was the only one there, his eyes suddenly became cold.

After hearing his words, Lan Xi instantly realized that she had accidentally entered into Si Mingyu's plan.

There was no time to think about it. He just wanted to leave here as soon as possible. If he stayed any longer, he would definitely lose his mind completely.

"Lanxi didn't know there was someone in this room, so she wanted to come in and rest..."

Before he could finish his words, Si Mingyu suddenly grabbed his neck, his face twisted: "How dare you ruin my good thing!"

"No..." Lan Xi wanted to explain, but his neck was strangled and he couldn't make any sound.

When Lanxi felt like he was about to suffocate, Si Mingyu suddenly let go of his hand and threw him to the ground: "Since you want a man so much, this prince will grant you your wish."

After saying that, he opened the terminal: "Someone come!"

After a while, two burly men appeared at the door.

Si Mingyu pointed at Lan Xi on the ground with his chin and said to the two guards, "He is a reward for you."

Lan Xi, who had briefly regained her sanity due to the pain in her neck, was immediately horrified when she heard his words. She used her hands and feet to crawl to Si Mingyu's feet and hugged his legs.

"Your Highness, please don't do that. Lanxi knows she is wrong. Let Lanxi serve you. Lanxi is yours!"

He screamed at the top of his lungs, but Si Mingyu kicked him away and then patted his trouser legs as if there was some invisible virus.

Lanxi was stunned when she saw his disgusted expression. At this time, two guards came forward, lifted him up and dragged him into the room.

Lanxi finally reacted and began to struggle.

Looking at the door slowly closing, he yelled hysterically: "Si Mingyu, you beast!"

However, as the shielding barrier was opened, his shouting could no longer be heard.

The Emperor's study.

"Promoted to lieutenant general, and appointed commander of the Third Army." Si Yue looked at the appointment letter in his hand with a changeable look.

After a moment, he raised his head, and it was hard to tell whether he was in admiration or anger: "I underestimated you after all. You are a good example of turning passivity into initiative."

"That day when I asked you to deal with the internal disputes of the Shen family, I gave you the opportunity to clear the obstacles."

"I guess you've planned all this since then." Si Yue narrowed his eyes, "But how can you be sure that I will agree?"

Huo Linyuan was not surprised, and said calmly: "This is an appointment by the military. Whether you agree or not cannot change the facts."

"What a big tone! Don't forget that the royal family still holds power. As long as I am the emperor, you will always be a subject."

Huo Linyuan calmly took a sip of tea, then put down the teacup and said in a calm tone: "So, it's time for your imperial power to come to an end."

"What did you say!" Si Yue slammed the table and stood up, but the next moment he started coughing violently because of anger.
