"We are not adopting Li Xue, rather we are registering her under our name. She is our daughter and has all the rights to sit on the seat that belongs to the royal heir or heiress." Shin Tingming's voice came loud and crisp, clear to everyone's hearing. The moment he said that he felt like a heavy burden was lifted off his heart and now he was free.
Chen Rui also felt the same as her expression turned that of ease. She turned to look at her husband, satisfied with every word he presented. Although those words were not enough to prove the whole story, at least, it came out. She knew how hard it was for him to keep it silently in his heart. Especially when he was dying to accept the girl in front of the world.
A wave of panic arose in the people as hearing the king say something this big, they didn't know how to react. While they were busy comprehending those words, a voice from behind rang loud in objection. "We won't accept that. It's impossible."
Shin Tingming looked at the person and so did the others. Chen Rui's brows tugged in a frown but she didn't say anything. It was not her place to say things, so she just waited, knowing that sooner or later her husband would definitely solve it out.
Li Xue looked at the person and her brows didn't raise in surprise, nor did she flinch at the raised volume of the man. Instead, what amused her was that the man actually spoke. Otherwise, from what she had read about his attitude earlier, he felt like the manipulative one who never comes in front of himself, rather remains pulling the strings of his puppets behind the curtains.
"Impressive, this Old Su has the ability to speak at the front as well." She murmured to herself. Hearing half of which, Shin You Jun leaned in to ask with a furrow on his brows.
"Huh? Did you say anything?"
Li Xue shook her head. "Nothing. I just feel that this is the first time Old Su must have come up to speak like this."
The boy instantly shook his head. "Nope, not the first time. He always becomes desperate like this when he feels his power and stand in the family getting endangered."
Li Xue partially understood his words but she was still confused. So, she whispered to ask, "Feeling his power getting endangered? How am I a threat to him?"
Shin You Jun stared at her suddenly and pursed his lips. "Do you really think you are as innocent as you pretend? You can turn anyone's life into a living hell if you want to. He is still an old man, eligible to die anytime soon. I believe he might have seen through your wickedness."
Li Xue would have rolled her eyes at his such lame reasons if she had not been sitting in front of so many people. But since she was sitting there, she only restrained herself to smile as she said, "My bad. Pretend as if I haven't asked you that." She said and then turned away.
Shin You Jun's mood turned bright, seeing his sister getting pissed off. But then not teasing her more, he explained, "You have become a threat to his name and ego since you are a girl."
He said and Li Xue turned to look at him confused. To which he further added, "The Su family of the royals has always got their eyes on the throne. But since they are not the immediate relatives in the family tree, it's harder for them to get what they desire. Up until now, although they have kept trying, they have never succeeded."
"But even in their defeat, they weren't embarrassed by it, thinking that the person from whom the Old Su lost; or the person that kept his son at the bay from the throne were men. They consider it fair game. But now that Pa showed the intention to make you the heiress, it has pricked his nerves, making him come out desperately like this."
He said and Li Xue turned to look at the man. Differentiating the defeat and threats on the basis of gender – in which century were they even living?
Shin Tinming's gaze turned sharper than ever when he heard no one but Old Su objecting to his words. His fists clenched on the side as piercing him deep with his gaze, he asked, "You are objecting to it, Mr. Su; may I know the reasons that made you do so?"
The old man Su was also not the one to step back. Especially when it's his words and objection being challenged. "Your Majesty, I am not new to the royal court or its rules same as you. And we both know something like this simply can't happen. The royal laws and constitution don't allow outsiders to take high positions like the king or the heir. So, if you want to include her in the family, you have a way to adopt her. You can't register her under your name."
He said and at his words like that, people around were about to nod and support. But just when they were about to do so, they paused hearing the flutter of a chuckle from Shin Tingming.
People were taken aback by that chuckle, no one expected this to come. Especially from the king when such a serious matter was getting discussed. What was happening?
"Old Su, I could never doubt your experience in reading the court laws. After all, that has been your favorite pass time for years now. But what I never expected from you was not doing the assignment before firmly claiming your words and stance." Shin Tingming said. Although he had chuckled moments ago, there was no hint of fun in his expression.
Old man Su paused at his words. His face, turning serious with every passing second, "What do you mean? What did I say wrong?"
Shin Tingming shook his head. "You didn't say anything wrong. It's just that you failed to analyze the objects of my words. You were right to say I am not unknown to this court or our rules. So, I also know that being our blood, our elder daughter could happily take the throne of the heiress, if we say so and the court agrees."
"Your blood! Your daughter?" Old Su felt the rug getting pulled away down from his feet.
While Shin Tingming remained confident. His eyes once again stared to look at the people around as he repeated his words again. "Li Xue has my blood. Our daughter! Older daughter to me and Rui. And hence she is potentially eligible to get the throne after me. "
