Chapter 654 Defeat Her
"Puchi... Daddy, don't worry, I won't tell Grandpa." Feeling the hand that was applying the ointment on her stiffen, Mei Li laughed out loud.
"Okay, you little girl, when will you let me be more at ease?" Master Mei San's eyes were full of helplessness.
"By the way. What were you in such a hurry to do just now?" Mr. Mei San looked at his daughter and asked.
"You don't know, I just met the prince at the city gate when he came back." Mei Yu said excitedly.
"The Imperial Conference is coming soon. What's so strange about the Crown Prince coming back?" Mr. Mei San was speechless.
"The key is not my brother the Crown Prince, but the Emperor Yan Li. When I met the Emperor Yan Li, she was very beautiful and gentle. She also praised me for being frank and cute." Mei Li's eyes were full of excitement.
"Emperor Yan Li? Are you saying that she came back with the prince?" The head of the Mei family was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Yes, Prince Lan Zhe of the Lan Qin Empire also came back with them." Mei Yu nodded.
"The Imperial Conference is about to begin. It's normal for them to come back together, right?" Master Mei said.
"Mei'er, I heard that Emperor Yan is moody, you have to stay away from her and never provoke her." The head of the Mei family looked at Mei Mei sternly.
"Moody? No way, uncle. She even praised me for being handsome and cute, and said she liked me very much." Mei Hao immediately shook her head in defense when she heard that.
"Mei'er, there are some things you don't understand, so you have to be obedient." The head of the Mei family said helplessly.
"I understand, uncle." Mei Li nodded obediently.
"You must be tired today, go and have a rest." The head of the Mei family patted Mei Li's head with loving eyes.
"Okay, then I'll go to rest." Mei Xiu responded and walked towards her yard.
"Brother, Meng'er has always been reckless, and she admires Emperor Yan Li so much. What should we do if we offend her?" Master Mei San looked anxious.
"We can't lock her up, or she'll make a big fuss." Master Mei also felt a headache.
"Don't be anxious. Almost everything Emperor Yan Li knows about her comes from rumors. Why don't we ask the prince first?" The head of the Mei family was relatively calm.
"That's right. The prince has been with Emperor Yan Li for such a long time, he must know her better." Master Mei nodded.
So the three brothers left Mei's house and headed towards Tai.
In the Prince's Mansion.
As soon as Prince Qingmo returned from the palace, he learned that his three uncles had arrived.
He knew what they were here for without even thinking about it, so he ordered someone to invite them over.
"Prince, we came here this time to..."
"If it's about Mei'er, uncles, don't worry. Emperor Yan Li is not such a stingy person."
The head of the Mei family was interrupted by Prince Qingmo before he could finish his words.
"You know Mei'er's personality. We are worried that she will offend people without any reason." Mr. Mei San said.
"Puchi... Today, Mei'er said in front of Emperor Yan that you, Third Uncle, always say that she is thick-skinned and that her brain was in her mother's belly when she was born." Thinking of what Mei'er said before, Prince Qingmo couldn't help laughing.
"What? This girl... is really thick-skinned. She even said such things in front of Emperor Yan." Master Mei San's face was instantly filled with black lines when he heard this.
"Prince, Meng'er said that Emperor Yan also praised her for being handsome and cute?" Master Mei looked at Prince Qingmo with some confusion.
After all, in the Qingmei Empire, most of the daughters of noble families dislike Mei Xiu for being thick-skinned and don't like to have any contact with her at all.
Emperor Yan Li was well-known throughout the continent, both in the past and after her return. How could she possibly look down upon her own thick-skinned niece?
"Indeed, and I can see that Emperor Yan really likes Mei'er, and his words of praise for her are not just compliments." Prince Qingmo said with a smile.
"But why? How did Mei'er catch the eye of Emperor Yan Li?" The head of the Mei family felt a little bit unbelievable.
They are not belittling Mei Xiu, but they know very well what kind of person their own child is.
"Perhaps Emperor Yan has seen too many intrigues, so he likes someone like Lian'er who is simple and innocent." Prince Qingmo said with a smile.
"That's the only explanation. Fools have good fortune." Master Mei nodded.
The three of them chatted with the prince for a while before leaving.
Now that they knew that Emperor Yan Li really liked his silly girl, they felt relieved.
The next day.
The Emperor of Qingmei Empire held a banquet to welcome Yan Li and Crown Prince Lanzhe.
The emperor of Qingmei Empire also ordered his ministers to accompany him with their families.
Mei Xiu looked around as she entered the banquet venue, and seemed a little disappointed when she found that Yan Li had not arrived yet.
"Mei Li, we haven't decided the winner yet." A girl in green walked up to Mei Li and said provocatively.
"You clearly lost last time." Mei Xiu looked at her with contempt.
"My weapon is not as good as yours. Now let's have another fight." The girl in green said as she took out her sword.
It turned out to be a divine weapon.
Upon seeing this, everyone present was immediately attracted by the divine weapon.
"Mei Li, do you dare to compete with me again?" The girl in green was Yan Shan, the eldest daughter of the general who protects the country.
"Yan Shan, this is a royal banquet." Mei Yu was currently concentrating on waiting for Yan Li and didn't want to compete with her at all.
"So what? Our Qingmei Empire can be challenged by anyone and anywhere can become a battlefield." Yan Shan held the Divine King's weapon with a proud look on her face.
She is going to defeat Mei Xiu in front of so many people today.
Before Mei Xiu agreed, Yan Shan attacked her with her weapon raised.
Mei Xiu had no choice but to take out his sword and fight back.
But when the two swords collided, the sword in Mei Li's hand broke into several pieces.
Mei Luo was stunned to see his beloved sword broken, because this was the birthday gift his grandfather had given him.
While Mei Xiu was in a daze, Yan Shan attacked her directly in the face.
Everyone could see that she wanted to ruin Mei Li's face.
"Stop!" When the Mei family members found out and wanted to save Mei Li, it was too late.
At this critical moment, the sword in Yan Shan's hand was directly shaken away.
At the same time, Yan Li pulled Mei Xiu over and rescued her.
"Emperor Yan." Mei Yu finally came back to his senses when he saw Yan Li.
"It's just a sword. Why are you daydreaming during a battle?" Yan Li looked at her seriously.
"That was the birthday present my grandfather gave me." Mei Xiu said with red eyes.
"You can celebrate your birthday every year, and your grandfather can give you many swords, but you only have one life." Yan Li said and looked at her.
"I was wrong." Mei Xiu lowered her head embarrassedly when she heard that.
"This sword is for you. After the contract, defeat her." Yan Li took out a sacred-level long sword and handed it to Mei Li.
When everyone saw the level of the sword, they gasped!
