Chapter 1786 - 1786 Position
1786 Position
The hall instantly fell silent.
Many people looked surprised. Shangguan You? Who is this? It sounds… like someone from the princess consort’s side?
36 Respected Elder Ming’s eyes lit up, and he stood up. “Hurry up and bring him in!”
“Yes!” The guard respectfully withdrew.
Everyone in the hall looked at each other.
Elder Jing Chen probed, “36 Respected Elder Ming, who is this Shangguan You?”
36 Respected Elder Ming chuckled. “He’s the princess consort’s father.”
Everyone looked enlightened. It is indeed that person from the Tianling Dynasty, but… Why is he here all of a sudden?
Suddenly, someone seemed to have thought of something. “Could it be that… His Grace is planning to hold a wedding?”
36 Respected Elder Ming smiled and stroked his beard—this was a tacit agreement!
Many people were stunned on the spot and couldn’t react for a while.
Actually, it was indeed time for His Grace to hold the wedding ceremony. After all, it had been a long time since the day of the princess consort election.
In the middle, His Grace had also mentioned a few times that he wanted to get married, but he was delayed by such things. Hence, everyone gradually ignored this matter.
Now that they suddenly heard it, they couldn’t help but be surprised.
“No wonder…”
No wonder the princess consort’s father has been invited. When a daughter gets married, her parents naturally have to come.
…
Soon, an unfamiliar figure appeared outside the hall.
The guard’s announcement sounded.
Everyone looked over. Most of them were also very curious about the princess consort’s family.
Shangguan You came to the front of the hall and looked up.
Tongshen Palace—it was solemn and dignified!
Before he entered, he could already feel a heavy pressure approaching silently!
Shangguan You recalled what he had seen and heard on the way and still felt like he was in a dream. This is… where Yue’er is now?
Shangguan You had heard of the God Residence Realm and later learned a lot about it, including the Sky-Cloud Empire. He knew that any clan or sect in the God Residence Realm was stronger than the Tianling Dynasty. Among them, the Sky-Cloud Empire was one of the top existences!
But when he really arrived here, he realized that everything was even more than he expected…
For a moment, Shangguan You didn’t know what words to use to describe his feelings. He felt something surge in his chest.
“Lord Shangguan, the elders are waiting inside. Please—” Yu Mo had a fervent smile on his face as he politely invited Shangguan You in.
Although Shangguan You was the former Tianling Emperor, they were in the God Residence Realm now. Hence, it was naturally not appropriate to address him that way. After thinking about it, Shangguan You took the initiative to ask Yu Mo to call him that.
Anyway, it was just a title. What was really important was to see Yue’er.
Shangguan You nodded and walked into the hall.
…
The moment Shangguan You entered, countless gazes landed on him!
He looked to be in his 40s and was dressed in a navy-blue brocade robe. Although there were already traces of time on his face, it still didn’t hide his handsomeness and elegance as a young man.
Shangguan Yue’s appearance was indeed 30 to 40% similar to his.
Most importantly, he had an extraordinary bearing. Even though he was from outside the God Residence Realm and had come to Tongshen Palace where experts gathered, his expression and footsteps were still very calm.
Some people thought to themselves, Everyone in the Shangguan family seems to have such… strength? Be it Shangguan Yue back then or the current Shangguan You, they never seem to know what fear is.
People outside the God Residence Realm, even if they were born as emperors, will often show some cowardice and cower when facing us. However, Shangguan You didn’t.
“Lord Shangguan, you’re finally here!” 36 Respected Elder Ming stood up and walked over with a smile.
Shangguan You quickly judged the situation in the hall and determined that the old man in front of him should have the highest status here.
Sensing the other party’s kindness and welcome, Shangguan You relaxed a little. Then, he immediately smiled and bowed. “Greetings, 36 Respected Elder Ming!”
36 Respected Elder Ming was a little surprised. “You recognize me?”
He did not remember meeting Shangguan You.
Shangguan You smiled and nodded. “Yu Mo mentioned you on the way. I saw that you have an extraordinary bearing, so I thought it should be you.”
Everyone present could tell that he was trying to be friendly.
But so what? 36 Respected Elder Ming had noble status. Even the people from the Sky-Cloud Empire had to be respectful and polite, let alone Shangguan You, who came from outside the God Residence Realm.
Besides, 36 Respected Elder Ming was extremely picky. He didn’t like ordinary people who tried to please him.
“Hahaha! Lord Shangguan is too polite!” When 36 Respected Elder Ming heard this, he immediately laughed heartily.
Obviously, he enjoyed Shangguan You’s words. This meant that his attitude towards Shangguan You was very friendly.
Quite a few people secretly exchanged glances. It seems that 36 Respected Elder Ming really values the princess consort. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have given Shangguan You face like this.
“His Grace and the princess consort are rushing back from outside. They should be back today. Lord Shangguan, do you want to wait together?” 36 Respected Elder Ming knew that Shangguan You must miss his daughter very much, so he took the initiative to explain.
Only then did Shangguan You understand. No wonder I haven’t seen Yue’er after arriving for so long. So it was because she hadn’t returned yet?
He nodded. “Thank you for your trouble.”
36 Respected Elder Ming laughed out loud. “What trouble is there? Lord Shangguan, just follow me.”
As he spoke, he actually brought Shangguan You to the innermost part of the hall and pointed at the first position on the right. “Lord Shangguan, please sit down!”
Shangguan You hesitated for a moment. “I’m afraid… that’s not appropriate, right?”
In the hall, chairs were on both sides.
36 Respected Elder Ming was always sitting in the first seat on the left. If he sat Shangguan You on the first seat on the right…
36 Respected Elder Ming said, “You’re the princess consort’s father and have a noble status. Of course, you can sit in this seat!”
