Crossover Anime: Where Did My Male God Go?

Chapter 260 Gong Yuanzheng 47

It seems like there aren't many truthful things being said.

Qingyue secretly tapped her fingers. It's true that one lie requires countless lies to cover it up.

Qingyue: "I'm telling you now, my real name is Xuanyuan Qingyue, I am twenty-five years old, I am the princess who protects the country, and I am also a general of the court."

"Expedition, I'm giving you a choice: do you accept me in this identity?"

Qingyue's expression was very serious, and her eyes were fixed on Gong Yuanzheng's eyes.

The voices of the palace gates grew softer as they waited for Gong Yuanzheng's reply. If Gong Yuanzheng agreed, the palace gates would remain prosperous and strong for Gong Yuanzheng's generation.

"I..."

Gong Yuanzheng didn't know what to do. If he chose Qingyue, would he have to leave the palace and return to the capital with her?

But he couldn't just give up on Qingyue like that. He liked her, really liked her. It was the first time he had ever been moved by someone, and he didn't want to give up.

Given her noble status, how could she possibly be willing to live with him within the palace walls?

There is no perfect solution in the world; he can only give up one thing, but he can't bear to give up either of them.

Did she sense Gong Yuanzheng's hesitation because it was inconvenient to tell her directly about her current status?

Qingyue's expression was blank.

That's true. She lied to him so much, so it's normal that he didn't choose her. After all, their relationship was based on deception, not on anything real.

Qingyue lowered her eyes and turned to go back to where she had been.

Before she could take a step, Gong Yuanzheng quickly grabbed her hand. He had a feeling that once she took that step, it would be completely over between them.

"Can I still return to the palace gate?"

Upon hearing this, Qing Yue's cold expression changed, and a glint flashed in her eyes.

"Of course, you can come back whenever you want; no one can stop you."

"Will I be your only man?"

Gong Yuanzheng knew that his status was not good enough for her. If she continued to keep other men, what would he do in the future?

Qingyue turned around, her expression serious: "I have never kept any male concubines, nor have I ever been infatuated with any other man."

"It has always been only you, Gong Yuanzheng. If you wish, you will be the most honorable consort of the dynasty, and also my only man, Xuan Yuan Qingyue's only man, and one of the most honorable people in the world."

Gong Yuanzheng sniffed and agreed, "Okay."

There are ways to achieve the best of both worlds by taking a step forward; it's not a matter of choosing only one option.

Fortunately, he didn't give up.

"Still crying!" Qingyue wiped away his tears with her fingertips.

"I didn't cry."

Gong Yuanzheng gave a forced smile, a genuine smile, a smile of pure joy, pure happiness.

Tonight's unexpected turn of events almost broke his heart, but thankfully it didn't lead to a direct confrontation and instead took a detour, causing him great emotional turmoil. At least things have come to a satisfactory conclusion.

Qingyue smiled and shook her head, then called out to the outside, "Come in and meet your consort."

The eight guards standing in a row at the entrance knelt down in unison before Gong Yuanzheng.

"Your subordinates greet Your Highness, the Imperial Son-in-Law."

Gong Yuanzheng was stunned: "Uh...you guys get up."

"Yes."

The guards stood in rows at the entrance.

Qingyue: "The eight of them are quite strong. They are my trusted confidants and their martial arts skills are top-notch. You can choose two of them to follow you."

"How does it compare to Guard Hongyu?" Gong Yuanzheng asked.

Qingyue tilted her head: "Guard Hongyu?"

I haven't seen it, so I can't compare.

Gong Yuanzheng explained, "The most powerful guards at the palace gate are the Red Jade Guards, who wield blades. Next are the Yellow Jade Guards, who are by the elders' side. The least powerful are the Green Jade Guards, most of whom are by your side, young master."

Qingyue: "The eight of them are the best among the secret guards. If we have to categorize them, they all belong to the Red Jade Guards."

She didn't know the rank of the Red Jade Guards at the palace gate, but these eight guards were only two ranks weaker than her, making them the strongest among the secret guards.

Gong Yuanzheng opened his mouth wide; he suddenly had two guards of the Red Jade rank.

"Look at your pathetic self," Qingyue said with amusement.

Knowing Gong Yuanzheng's martial arts skills, she didn't suggest that he try it out, as she wanted to save face for him.

Gong Yuanzheng: "Qingqing, aren't you exceptionally amazing?"

Yueqing, Qingyue, going back and forth, it's better to use the reduplicated character, truly belonging to the Qingqing of his distant expedition.

Qingyue hummed in response.

"Then teach me martial arts. I want to become really strong so I can protect you."

The bells on Gong Yuanzheng's hair jingled in the wind.

“I’m not very good at teaching others, so let them teach you.” Qingyue pointed to the eight people outside.

also.

Gong Yuanzheng nodded.

Xi En walked over. Gong Yuanzheng looked at the tiger in front of him and suppressed his fear. Xi En sniffed Gong Yuanzheng, as if trying to remember his scent.

"Hello brother-in-law, my name is Xi En."

Gong Yuanzheng: "Hey, why are you calling me brother-in-law?"

Qingyue stroked Xi'en's tiger head: "I raise Xi'en like a little sister. It's used to calling me master. It's not wrong for it to call you brother-in-law."

"I see. Hello, my name is Gong Yuanzheng." Gong Yuanzheng tentatively placed his hand on Xi En's head.

Seeing that it neither scratched nor bit him, his fear dissipated, and he relaxed his hand to stroke Xi En's fur, which was a little prickly and not very soft.

Wow, he actually touched a tiger!

Everyone was envious; they also wanted to touch it, since they had hardly ever seen a tiger, let alone touched one.

They were only envious; they weren't Gong Yuanzheng, just small fry, and didn't dare to ask for so much.

Seeing this, Gong Shangjiao felt relieved. He had originally wanted to ask Qingyue for her opinion on Gong Yuanzheng, but now it seemed unnecessary.

They have a good relationship; he's overthinking it.

Black Tiger can speak human language, a fact unknown to outsiders. Qing Yue dares to bring this matter to light in front of them, which makes her words more trustworthy.

After discussing their personal matters, it was time to get down to business.

Elder Hua: "Your Highness, please speak. We can bear it."

Qingyue: "No need for such formalities. Let's just do it the way we always have. Everyone, please take your seats."

The palace gates are now the husband's home of Gong Yuanzheng, so they are different. We can't let Yuanzheng feel uncomfortable.

"Yes."

Those who could sit down did so, while those who couldn't, like Young Master Hua, stood next to Elder Hua, and Young Master Yu also stood.

Qingyue sat with Gong Yuanzheng, with Xi'en lying at their feet.

"Let me explain why I changed my identity to become a bride-to-be and clear up all your doubts."

Gongmen listened intently. It was the middle of the night, but they weren't sleepy at all. Tonight had given them far too many shocks.

"The current emperor is my own brother. Because Wu Feng has committed evil deeds that have harmed ordinary people, causing them to suffer greatly, the emperor has ordered that he be executed as soon as possible."

"But Wu Feng is a man of the martial world. The imperial court and the martial world have always been in a delicate balance, which cannot be easily broken. You all know this, right?"

The people in the palace nodded. It was precisely because they understood that they were so terrified and astonished after learning Qingyue's identity.

"So, you changed your identity to enter the palace in order to conceal the court's involvement." Gong Shangjiao paused. "Why did you choose the palace gate?"
