Bound With Marriage

Next Morning.. 

Before Lu Sujia could wake up, Xiao Tao stormed into her room and said worriedly that the Emperor sent his men to look for her but they weren't telling the reason why the Emperor wanted to meet with her so early. 

When Lu Sujia thought about it, she also found it amiss but didn't comment, instead telling Xiao Tao to help her get ready for her meeting with the Emperor. 

"But Miss, what if something goes wrong! His Highness really doesn't like you at all. " Xiao Tao was really worried. 

Previously whenever this father daughter pair made, he only made Lu Sujia suffer. 

After all, Emperor Lu couldn't tolerate her at all because she was exactly like Concubine Ye. 

With the provocation of Empress Du, it would only be more ugly. 

Tsk Tsk! 

Only she could have the power to stop everything, then there was no way she would let her Miss suffer such a torment. 

"Don't worry.. " Lu Sujia was calmer than her, "apparently there's no point in thinking these things right now. We can't possibly ditch the Emperor by saying I don't want to meet. Since giving in on the hand of the future is the best option now. "

"As you say Miss. " Xiao Tao also thought that what Lu Sujia said made sense, "In case let me follow you there, since you can't remember anyone. "

"That's a good idea. " Lu Sujia thought they had good telepathy because she was also thinking the same. 

After taking a bath, she put on a light green outfit which was looking elegant on her and tied her hair in a bun before applying a light makeup. 

After all she needed to groom herself properly before going to the court. 

When Lu Sujia came outside to go to the court, she saw that the Emperor's men were still waiting for her with a carriage and the Emperor's eunuch was beside them. 

When she went there she politely greeted them but even though everyone greeted her back out of courtesy, Eunuch was still so indifferent. 

She didn't want to argue with him about this. 

After all, it was meaningless to make someone like you, if he didn't want to. 

Then just let it be.. 

It was not something she needed to do from the beginning or else if he complained to the Emperor about that then the situation would be ugly and she needed to suffer more.

She just got up on the carriage silently and let those men carry her to the Court. 

Xiao Tao followed her on the way. 

After a while.. 

They reached the court. 

Previously, She passed by there but didn't come inside the other day, when she went out with Xiao Tao. 

Now that she entered here, she thought that now she knew what luxury was called. 

The wall was made with white shining stone with the diamonds carved in the wall. When the sunlight fell on those, it was reflecting lights and looking so dazzling and holy.. 

The court's roof was decorated with some paintings and a Phoenix was drawn in the middle. 

It was showing that they were Phoenix's descendents. 

When Lu Sujia asked Xiao Tao if there was really any Phoenix in the Wingkind, she replied, "The last Phoenix disappeared one hundred years ago, now there was no Phoenix in the country and no one has shown something that can generate her as a Phoenix."

"Why only her? ``She was curious, "Can't man be Phoenix?"

"I don't know that much. '' Xiao Tao shrugged her shoulder, "It's said that only the woman who can enter and come out from the divine fire with her  cultivation power and her full body and wings will be the mix of red and yellow can be the ultimate Phoenix but it's a pity that no one can enter the divine fire all these years but they still think that there was a Phoenix at a time, so we are the descendants of Phoenix."

When she heard the explanation, she only said in a low voice, "I see. "

After waiting for some time, Emperor Lu entered the court with Empress Du and others. 

The ministers, Eunuch and others kowtow in front of him, "Long live Your Highness.. "

Seeing them, Lu Sujia also kneeled down and greeted him. 

"Raise." The Emperor's voice was cold and calm. 

He had the vibe that made him look really like those Emperors whom she read about. 

His composed and indifferent expression with the pair of sharp eyes and thin lips gave him a charming look. 

He had long gray hair and a fair complexion; the wrinkles on his face showed his experience with age. 

He was wearing a yellow longpao with a black long coat and there was a crown on his head. 

Beside him, There was a middle aged lady who could be mid forty and was looking equally elegant like the man beside her. 

She was wearing a Red long Qipao with a coat and jewelleries all over her body. 

Apparently, if anyone didn't pay attention to her that much and only looked at her from outside, he would find her gentle and after staring at her for a long time, Lu Sujia found her smile was kind of creepy. 

After sitting on the throne, the Emperor finally spoke, "Lu Sujia, I have asked you to come here today because of something important." Emperor Lu looked at her. 

"Mhm" she hummed but didn't say anything just to let him continue. 

Emperor Lu was pleased by her action, he really didn't like it when someone interrupted him. 

Lu Sujia saw that his fold on the temple had softened and gave Xiao Tao a thumbs up secretly. 

It's all thanks to her, she did not screw it up. 

Previously, when Lu Sujia was having breakfast before coming here, it was Xiao Tao who informed her about these trivial matters. 

"Miss, remember to talk less and try to avoid any interruption when the Emperor will talk to you. " Xiao Tao said worriedly, "Or else it will cause more trouble. "

"Okay okay, I'll remember.. " Lu Sujia nodded. 

Currently, when she was thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel grateful. 

Xiao Tao only smiled widely. 

As long as her Miss was happy, it was alright! 

"Lu Sujia, you will be of marriageable age within a month. " Emperor again continued, "So I want you to get married with the Dragon Prince Mu Wenran after your birthday. You know we want to bound our peace with marriage, so it's important.. "

"What? " When Lu Sujia heard this, she was so shocked and her mouth was wide open
