Because he carried a royal decree and led a troop of Imperial Guards, the eunuch's tone was exceedingly arrogant.
"Xiao Chen, which one of you is Xiao Chen? Come forth to receive the decree!"
"Stop yelling, he's right in front of you. Are you blind?" Yang Xin'er said irritably.
"Is this Commandery Princess Xin'er?" The eunuch holding the decree laughed, but his arrogant demeanor remained unchanged as his gaze fell on Xiao Chen, who still sat unmoving, "So you're Xiao Chen? Why are you still stunned? Kneel quickly to receive the decree!"
"To receive a decree, one must kneel?" Xiao Chen glanced at the eunuch.
"Of course, kneeling to receive the decree is a show of respect to the Emperor!" The eunuch looked down on Xiao Chen with disdain, thinking where did this bumpkin come from, not even knowing this basic etiquette.
At the side, Xiao Yingxue's expression had, at some point, become cold, and an intense killing intent began to emanate from her.
Whoosh!
