Chapter 267: Request Your Majesty to Annul the Engagement Between Prince Zhao and My Daughter

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Shen Liu’an didn’t seem to feel their gazes. He opened the small bag and revealed the bronze commander’s seal that had been made into the shape of a tiger. “1, Shen Liu’an, request Your Majesty to annul the engagement between Prince Zhao and my daughter, Shen Yaowei. In order to ask Your Majesty for mercy, I’m willing to hand over the commander’s seal!”

As soon as he said this, the entire venue was in an uproar.

Even Huo Junhan’s eyes darkened when he looked at Shen Liu’an.

500,000 soldiers were the blood, sweat, and tears of the Shen family’s ancestors. It could be said that the Shen family had won many battles in exchange for this soldier’s talisman. It was the core and most important power of the Shen family, and it was also the source of all the forces’ envy and fear.

Without the commander’s seal, the Shen family would become a group of generals that no soldier could lead. They would directly lose their real power.

The importance of the military seal to the Shen family was self-evident.

But today, Shen Liu’an had taken the initiative to contribute the most important thing to the Shen family, just for her daughter’s happiness.

No, it should be said that in the eyes of others, the commander’s seal was the most important thing to the Shen family. However, in the eyes of the Shen family, even monstrous power couldn’t compare to Shen Yaowei’s happiness.

“Father, please don’t agree.” Huo Zhao was shocked. He kneeled down with a livid expression and said to Shen Liu’an, “General Shen, I’m devoted to Yaoyao. I want to marry Linlang as my secondary consort first because they’re cousins and grew up together. After Yaoyao gets married to me, the two sisters can take care of each other.”

When Shen Liu’an heard this, he was so angry that he laughed. He simply wanted to open Huo Zhao’s head and see if his mind was filled with mush.

He knew very well that Yu Linlang was the culprit behind poisoning Yaoyao. How could he let that vicious woman and Yaoyao marry into Prince Zhao’s residence together?!

“Your Highness, I’ve made up my mind.” Shen Liu’an forced these words out from between his teeth coldly. Then, he kowtowed three more times to Huo Yuntian. “I’ve never begged Your Majesty. Today, I’m willing to offer everything. I only ask Your Majesty to retract your order!”

Huo Yuntian frowned and looked at the two people kneeling on the ground. He was extremely worried. “Minister Shen, why are you doing this?”

Shen Liu’an didn’t say anything, but from his stubborn expression, it wasn’t difficult to tell that he had made up his mind.

“Father, I really love Yaoyao. If I can’t marry Yaoyao, I’m willing to never marry!” As Huo Zhao spoke, he kowtowed to Huo Yuntian a few times.

Huo Yuntian was so worried that his temples throbbed violently. For a moment, he was in a dilemma.

Especially when he saw the commander’s seal in Shen Liu’an’s hand, how could he not be anxious?

The entire Shen family was filled with talents, but without the commander’s seal, they naturally wouldn’t continue to lead troops. When the time came, their losses wouldn’t be small.

The three of them were in a deadlock. Only Huo Junhan had a calm expression.

Finally, Huo Junhan spoke. His low and oppressive voice broke the silence. “It’s inappropriate to marry a secondary consort without taking the first wife. Since Huo Zhao wants to take Yu Linlang regardless of ethics, it can be seen how deep his feelings for her are. In that case, it’s best for Huo Zhao not to delay Miss Shen.”

“Imperial Uncle, I definitely didn’t mean that!” Huo Zhao looked up and retorted before meeting Huo Junhan’s cold and hard gaze.

At this moment, a bone-chilling coldness spread throughout Huo Zhao’s entire body. He trembled from the cold, and all the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat.

He didn’t dare to refute Huo Junhan now.

After realizing this, Huo Zhao’s entire body trembled. He could only place his last hope on Huo Yuntian..
