Chapter 84 Ambassador of Qi
"Go down!" Wang Xinlin ordered her people.
Yan Qin stared at her and stuttered nervously, "You...you...you are a princess?" She quickly saluted Wang Xinlin.
Wang Xinlin hurried to help her up, "I'm not a princess of Zhou, I'm a princess of Wu." She did not hide her identity at all. Yan Qin looked at her for a long time.
"You are so brave. The relationship between Wu and Zhou is so tense now, and you still dare to come to Zhou. Aren't you afraid of us?" Before Yan Qin finished her words, the people around Wang Xinlin were gradually approaching her and preparing to silence her.
Wang Xinlin scolded them, "Back off! These two are my good sisters, I will punish anyone who dares to touch them!"
The men in black looked at each other and retreated consciously. "Get out of here!" Wang Xinlin yelled, and then pulled Yan Qin and Jiao Niang to go for dinner.
At the banquet, Yan Qin became reserved, completely different from her appearance last night.
Wang Xinlin raised the wine and smiled at the two of them: "When I don't have this identity, I am still your little sister."
Yan Qin and Jiao Niang raised their glasses, and Jiao Niang shouted, "Then you will always be our sister. Please take good care of us in Dawu from now on."
Hearing Jiao Niang's words, Wang Xinlin asked back: "Are you going to Wu Kingdom? Remember to come to Wudu to find me. There is nothing in Wu Kingdom that my family can't help you with."
The three of them were talking loudly at the table, and Yan Sheng and the other three were listening carefully to what they were saying. During the break, Huang Jun asked Huang Jing to help him sit outside.
Yan Sheng said to the three of them, "The banquet is for you three. I'll go out and join the other two to become sworn brothers like you?" Then he left the banquet and joined the two of them.
Huang Jun was the first to speak, "She is actually a princess?"
Huang Jing also keenly noticed that the black-clad man who came today was dressed differently from the man he met last night.
Yan Sheng also spoke up, "Isn't she a county princess? How did she become a princess? Has the Emperor Wu issued an order to confer her the title of princess?"
"Emperor Wu should have announced such a big thing to the world instead of keeping silent." Huang Jun also discovered this problem.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion in Dawu, Wang Pu poured wine for someone and said respectfully, "Your Majesty came to the mansion in person, why didn't you summon me to the palace?"
"I am the only one who can convey this to you. Xin Lin's promotion to princess should be put on the agenda. After we go to war with Zhou and Qi, we will announce our true identities to the world."
"Yes, Your Majesty! I will do my best to assist you." The Prime Minister Wang responded, and then added: "What about the prisoner? Kill him or keep him?"
"I've sent someone to deal with it!"
"Knock, knock, knock," three long and two short knocks sounded on the door, and the adult in the house shouted, "Come in!"
The man came into the house covered in blood, "The emperor has dealt with it."
When Emperor Wu left the prime minister's residence, the eunuchs accompanying him shouted, "Your Majesty, return to the palace! Everyone stay away."
When Emperor Wu returned to the palace, his two sons were already waiting outside the palace. Yao Xuan said, "Father, the envoy from Qi wants to see you."
"Then you go and handle it for me!" Emperor Wu arranged in the sedan chair. The unconvinced Second Prince looked at him with hatred. Then Emperor Wu said, "Second Prince, go and help the eldest prince receive the envoy from Qi."
When the Second Prince Yao Qi heard his father's additional words in public, he immediately knelt on the ground and shouted, "Thank you, father!"
Emperor Wu didn't even look at him and ordered people to carry him back to his bedroom in a sedan chair.
Yao Qi lay on the ground and swore to himself: "Father, I am your only choice." Then he looked at Yao Xuan with dim eyes.
The two men came to the side hall to receive the envoy from Qi, and the envoy from Qi handed the gifts he brought to them.
Yao Xuan declined the gifts they sent and asked them to go back.
"Your Highness, this is a personal gift from our Majesty. Please accept it." The ambassador of Qi State stopped him.
"Sir, please take these things back. The matter has been settled. My father will announce these matters during the morning court tomorrow." Yao Xuan said, and then left the hall.
Yao Qi, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward and stared at the treasures, "Sir, I can try!", and then took the gifts.
"Thank you, Second Prince. I wonder if you are interested today. I have a banquet outside the Imperial City tonight. I hope you can come and join us!"
When Yao Qi heard the man's request, he immediately agreed, "Sir, I will definitely attend the banquet!"
The eldest prince's men told him what happened after they left, "Will your Highness tell His Majesty?"
"No need! Let him be proud for a few days first." Yao Xuan responded and immediately entered Emperor Wu's bedroom.
"Father, has the matter concerning Prime Minister Wang been decided?" he asked Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu smiled and asked, "Did someone from Da Qi come to ask?"
Yao Xuan smiled and said, "Yes, father, the envoy sent by Qi asked."
"Xuan'er, what do you think I should do?"
"Father, I think if we agree, we can send troops to Qi to support the orthodoxy, but then our Wu Kingdom may be attacked by Qi and Zhou. If we don't agree, Qi, Wu and Zhou will never be unified, and it will be difficult for Wei to prosper."
"Haha, now that you have analyzed it, just do it according to your ideas," Emperor Wu arranged.
"Yes! Father."
With his father's instruction, Yao Xuan decided to do something big.
After Wang Xinlin and Yan Qin finished their drinks, they asked, "When are you going to Wu State?"
Jiao Niang replied: "Soon, it depends on my husband."
Yan Qin asked, "How long will it take for you to return to Wu Country? How can we find you when you return to Wu Country?"
"That depends on Huang Jun. I don't know when I will return to Wu State," Wang Xinlin replied.
Huang Jun slipped in at this time, "Since you want to go with them so much, let's go together. I will feel relieved to have you on the way back to Wuguo."
"Okay! Then we'll go back to Wu Country the day after tomorrow, and I'll go out and have some fun with my two sisters in Zhou Country."
After Mo Xuan woke up in Zuiyan Tower, he opened his eyes and saw Tang Ling, "Tang Ling, am I dead?"
Tang Ling smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I'm alive and well!"
"Where is the major general?" he asked with all his strength.
"The young general is fine. We are safe in Zuiyan Tower now." Tang Ling told him what happened after he fell unconscious, and then handed him a green jade token.
"This is the token given by Chen Yanjun of Zuiyan Tower. From now on, you and I are both members of Zuiyan Tower, but we are also the masters of Luyu Tower." Tang Ling said proudly.
Mo Xuan still wanted to refuse this kindness, but this time Zhang Sui'an ordered him, "This is an order. It will not be too late for you to come back after rebuilding the Xiao family army." Only then did he remember that the woman who saved her was the major general's sister.
"Thank you! Major General!"
