Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1215 Blunder misconception.

Chapter 1215 Blunder misconception.

Although the stares of the people never left her, Li Xue slowly grew all accustomed to it. No longer taking them into consideration, she stayed there naturally having chats with Chen Rui.

From the moment Li Xue appeared near the royal couple, no one went to greet them. So, neither Chen Rui nor Shin Tingming got the opportunity to introduce Li Xue. And they found it to be better this way. It made them avoid the weird speculations of the people.

After some time, Shin Tingming looked at his watch. "It's time." He said as Li Xue and Chen Rui turned to look at him while he turned to gesture to someone to make the announcement.

Soon, a person appeared in the middle of the hall to announce, "Greetings to respected royal members. It's great to have all of you here once again under the same roof. It's already time to proceed with today's plans. So, I request you to please take your seats, so that we can begin."

The announcer announced, and responding to his words, everyone went to take their seats.

Shin Tingming forwarded his hands to Chen Rui like a gentleman, while Shin You Jun walked to the side of Li Xue to accompany her towards the main seat. "Sister, let's go." He said softly to which Li Xue nodded with a smile before looking back around the room.

She saw Shen Bingling already taking her seat with her father, while others also made themselves comfortable in their seats. But was there someone still not there? What is happening? Will Su Ce not be attending the meeting?

No, no that wasn't the plan in the first place. To go according to the plan she had prepared, the presence of Su Ce in the hall was greatly needed. Without him, who would she force to turn the whole situation back in their favor? Other than him, no one else can.

While she was thinking like that, Shin You Jun caught her absent-mindedness and asked, "Who are you looking for?" As he said his eyes scanned all the people as well.

"Prince Su. He is not here yet. And to make my plan happen, it's necessary that he must be here." Li Xue said and Shin You Jun could feel the urgency in her words.

"It's okay, sister. Don't be anxious. He will be here soon. In no way, he is going to miss this meeting." He said as he caught people looking at them. "Now, don't focus on him. We should get up to our seats fast. Ma and Pa have already gotten there and everyone is waiting for us to get to ours fast so that they could begin."

He said, and Li Xue understood what he meant to say. Nodding, she soon got up to her chair that was kept close yet distant from the royal couple.

"Do you think it would be alright for me to sit here? I mean this is the seat for the heir. And I …" Although Li Xue knows who she was, there was still time for her to become it. So, she was not sure if she should sit in the seat of the heir or get her comfortable somewhere down with everyone else.

"And you are good for this seat." Before she could complete her words, Shin You Jun interrupted to complete her thoughts

Li Xue looked at him, raising her brows to which he further added to explain. "This seat is kept nearest to Ma and Pa and represents the position of the future head of royals. And that would be you. So, except for this seat, where do you think would be better for you? Furthermore, look, I have asked them to add one more chair here. I would also be sitting here. So, there is nothing to worry about. You can depend on me."

He said and Li Xue almost rolled her eyes at him, before pulling him down along with her to take the seat. "Shh … today, I see you have a lot of great words to speak. But get all of them out some other time. For now, let's focus on this."

She said and Shin You Jun simply pursed his lips. It was already tough for him to frame the wise words. But no one ever treasures it. Can't they see his efforts behind it?

While the siblings took their seats beside each other, Shin Tingming saw the wave of questions arising in every eye. Of course, he was expecting it like this. He knew now he could no longer delay it, so he said to address everyone.

"Good afternoon, everyone. Here I mark the beginning of the emergency royal meeting. Under the law constituted in the royal books, you all can bring up the questions to discuss with me."

Shin Tingming said as Chen Rui's gaze matched everyone sitting in the crowd, ready to guess their question before they could even bring it up.

Right at that time, a person from the middle of the people stood up. He was the same cousin brother of Tingming, who had earlier come to greet them along with his wife.

Chen Rui wasn't surprised to see him stand up to bring up the first question to fire. She knew these people were nothing better than the wolves under the skin of the sheep.

"His Majesty, don't get me wrong. We all respect you but in the past recent days, your decisions have come out the way that has forced us to ask you to explain to us the reason behind them. After all, you have broken the vow that you made while taking the charge of the king of Chiboa."

He said while the next second, another one stood up to add. "Yes, Your Majesty, we want to know what made you punish Princess Shen Bingling so strictly while offering such a high seat to a stranger like her." He said gesturing the later part of his words towards Li Xue.

"Her Highness, we have heard that you favor this girl a little too much since she has donated her blood to His Highness. But we never expected that one favor from a simple commoner has turned you weak enough to not able to make right judgments now."

Another one stood up to question Chen Rui this time. And before she could react to it, Shin You Jun stood up in a defensive stance. "What position do you hold to question Her Highness's judgments? Did you forget the politeness that you should carry in your words while talking to the main royal couple?"

He said and the raise of his pitch like that was enough to silence everyone for a moment. But that silence didn't stay for long as soon, the person said again in a tone of obviousness.

"How are we wrong? We are not trying to be impolite to His or Her Highness. It's just that we want to have explanations. After all, this royal grand meet has been kept for this, isn't it?"

"You …" Shin You Jun was about to lash out again. But before he could say anything, Li Xue held him back while Chen Rui ordered from the side, "You Jun, sit down and don't speak until you are asked to."

The young prince was still flaring inside, but since it was the order from his mother, he took it seriously and sat back, clenching his fist to hold back his anger. Li Xue looked at him like that and tried to soothe him. But she knew this anger wouldn't subside that easily. At least not until these people get appropriate payback for their words.

Chen Rui looked at the person who stood up to question her. "I won't ask you what made you think that I, Chen Rui, have gotten weak. But please do tell me what made you think that my daughter, Li Xue is a commoner, to begin with. Haven't you been carrying a blunder misconception in your thoughts?"

She said and her words like that froze the people in the room for a moment.
