30 Chapter 28: I want to marry Yue!

"The Royal Hall! Minister Wang is still there. Their talks are still ongoing!" 

Mengchan replied, but before she finished her sentence, Xu Liang had already ran out of the room towards the direction of the Royal hall.

Xu Liang ran in the corridor as fast as he could before he finally reached the Royal Hall.

"Your Majesty, My son is a talented young man. In fact, he can be considered as the most talented in the younger generation of the Heavenly Realm after Prince Liang. I believe that he is worthy of marrying Princess Yue. He likes her as well." Minister Wang said with a bright smile on his face.

"Your son is indeed a good kid, but I'm not too sure about it. I need to talk to Yue about it as well." The Heavenly Emperor replied in an uncertain tone.

"There's no better man for Princess Yue, Your Majesty! They will be a Heavenly couple." Minister Wang said again with full seriousness in an effort to convince the Heavenly Emperor.

Right at that moment, the door of the Royal Hall abruptly opened and Xu Liang entered inside.

"Liang'er? What are you doing here?"Heavenly Emperor asked as he gazed at Xu Liang.

"I need to talk to you right now father " Xu Liang responded in full seriousness.

"Minister Wang, As I said, I can't take decisions on behalf of my daughter. The final decision will depend on her. I will tell you after talking to her." Heavenly Emperor said to Minister Wang in hopes of getting him to leave.

"Alright. I shall take my leave for the moment then. I'll wait for the good news, Your Majesty," Minister Wang said as he passed by Xu Liang and left.

"Sigh...I never expected that marriage proposals for Yue would start coming so soon. It's true though that she is an adult now, so it's normal that people will come here to ask for her hand in marriage. It will all depend on her wishes, as I can't force my kids to do what they don't want to." Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu sighed as he gazed at Xu Liang.

"Oh right, What did you want to talk about?" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu asked Xu Liang.

"Father I..I want to marry Yue!" Xu Liang stuttered initially before he gathered all the courage he had and spoke the words that would have been considered taboo in his previous world.

"Y..ahu ahu..." Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu coughed out the wine he was drinking as he stood up in shock.

"Am I hallucinating or did you actually say that you wanted to marry Yue?" He asked again just to be sure.

"I and Yue have fallen in love with each other and I wish to marry her." Xu Liang said again as he took a few steps forward and stood in front of Heavenly Emperor Xu Liang.

He couldn't help but be afraid of the violent reaction he would receive from Tian Zhu, but it was something that needed to be said.

'I can't let Yue be forced to marry someone. It's for her happiness and mine.' 

That was the only thought that was going through his mind right now.

He raised his eyes as he turned to look at Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu's reaction but it was something that he never expected.

Instead of frowning or getting angry, Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu was smiling.

"Father, you... are you smiling? Aren't you angry?" Xu Liang asked in an uncertain tone.

"Why should I be angry? My two little angels want to marry! I don't think there is any need to be angry! You just said that Yue loves you too! If you both like each other, then why should I be upset? '' Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu chuckled as he gazed at Xu Liang.

"But...but... it's a taboo relationship! She is my sister!!! I'm talking about marrying my sister!" 

Xu Liang let out loudly as his mind turned blank after seeing Tian Zhu's reaction. It would be one thing if he had agreed after scolding or punishing him for a bit, but the reaction was completely out of his expectation.

"It's alright! You aren't related to her by blood, so there's no need to worry about it. Also, if you both get married, then our family can stay just the way we are. Also, You are the best boy in this whole realm! I can't find a single person more suited for Yue than you. You can protect her if I'm not around." Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu explained what his thoughts were.

"Oh right, how long had this been going on?" Heavenly Emperor asked with an interested look on his face.

"Two days..." Xu Liang replied.

"What? You both fell in love with each other only two days ago? Well...love is really strange..." The Heavenly Emperor shook his head as he said.

"Right, just to be sure, let me ask Yue if she wishes to marry you or not. Go stand behind the curtains, I'll call for her." Heavenly Emperor said as a smile always on his face.

He called out for a servant and ordered him to invite Yue to the Royal Hall.

Ten minutes had passed when Yue finally entered the Royal Hall.

Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu was sitting on his throne with a grave look on his face while Xu Liang stood behind a curtain according to Heavenly Emperor's wishes.

"Yue! I had found out that Xu Liang had misbehaved with you? He behaved with you inappropriately! Is it true? I even heard that he was trying to force you to marry him! Such an evil boy!" Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu said in a serious tone.

"Ah... no father that's not true at all!!! Brother Liang is nothing like that!!! He would never force me to do anything!!! " Yue grew worried as she hurriedly said to the Heavenly Emperor.

"You mean that I received wrong information? That might be the case. Anyways, I called you here for an important matter."

"What's the matter, father?" Yue sighed in relief as the topic shifted from Xu Liang.

"Minister Wang came here just a few minutes ago. He wished for you to be married to his son. What do you think about it? You are an adult now, so you can get married..." 

"Definitely not!!! I will not marry anyone other than brother Liang..." She said in an impulse but hurriedly closed her mouth.
