The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse
Chapter 837 Failed to kill him?
Danyan Palace
The Danyan Kingdom's palace was filled with red lanterns, and the atmosphere was filled with festivity.
At this time, they were also holding a palace banquet to welcome the New Year, and the entire hall was bustling with activity.
The palace banquet has officially begun. All the ministers stand up to congratulate the Queen Mother, the Emperor and the Queen, and present carefully prepared New Year gifts.
Afterwards, dancers performed on the side, and the melodious music and gorgeous dancing added joy to the banquet.
Tuoba Hongjun, the emperor of Danyan, was very happy while watching the dance and listening to the tributes from the ministers below.
Tuoba Hongjun sat in the middle, with the Queen Mother on his left and Queen Wanyan Liqiong on his right. Beside Queen Wanyan Liqiong sat the Emperor's two favorite concubines.
One is Imperial Concubine Jiang Xiaojingjing, and the other is Imperial Concubine Zhen Xiuyiyi.
Queen Wanyan Liqiong was born into a prominent family in Danyan State. Her father was the emperor's tutor and her grandfather was the imperial teacher. Not only that, her eldest brother was a general with a large army.
The empress gave birth to a son and two daughters for the emperor: Crown Prince Tuoba Di, eldest daughter Tuoba Zhen and fourth princess Tuoba Zhu.
Imperial Concubine Jiang Xiaojing is the daughter of Right Prime Minister Jiang Kunteng. She has a delicate and beautiful appearance and you can't tell at all that she is already in her thirties.
She was the most beloved concubine of Emperor Tuoba Hongjun, and gave birth to a son and a daughter for the emperor, the second prince Tuoba Feng and the third princess Tuoba Cui.
Concubine Zhen Xiu Yiyi is the daughter of General Zhen Song. Zhen Song is brave and good at fighting. He has a strong force and conquered many tribes for the Danyan Kingdom.
The emperor was also quite fond of Zhen Xiuyi, and she gave birth to a son for him, the fourth prince Tuoba Lei.
The emperor had a total of seven sons and five princesses, three of whom were under the age of fifteen, and the fifth princess was the youngest, only seven years old.
Emperor Tuoba Hongjun has more than 30 concubines in his harem. Among the other concubines, apart from the daughters of ministers and aristocratic families, many are women given to the emperor by various tribes.
The mother of the third prince Tuoba Fei was the daughter of a tribal leader.
The palace banquet was going on lively. At this time, the second prince Tuoba Feng walked forward with a smile on his face, bowed, and said loudly: "Grandmother, I wish you good health! Live a thousand years, live a thousand thousand years!"
The Queen Mother smiled from ear to ear and said repeatedly: "Good! Good! Feng'er, you are the one who speaks so sweetly. Later, the Royal Grandmother will give you the biggest red envelope."
Tuoba Feng hurriedly thanked her: "Thank you, Grandmother!"
Then, Tuoba Feng turned to the emperor and saluted respectfully: "Father! I wish you good health and a long life!" He was so happy today and was secretly proud of himself.
He heard from his subordinates that Crown Prince Tuoba Di not only failed to facilitate the marriage between Tuoba Zhu and the Western Chu Kingdom, but also encountered heavy snow on his way back and was trapped on the road.
He had already sent people to ambush secretly to ensure that Crown Prince Tuoba Di could never return to the capital.
"Good! Good! Good!" Emperor Tuoba Hongjun, who was sitting at the top, nodded and applauded happily.
His face was filled with a satisfied smile. He looked at his son with a smile, his heart filled with joy. This was born to his beloved concubine. The second prince Tuoba Feng not only looked like him, but also had the same personality.
He is now training troops in the west with Prince Han, and he specially came back to visit them during the New Year. The emperor feels that this son is so caring.
Queen Wanyan Liqiong, who was sitting next to the emperor, watched the interaction between the father and son. The emperor saw that Tuoba Feng's eyes were full of fatherly love, and he felt very jealous.
The emperor has always liked and favored the son of this "little bitch".
The queen thought that she and Tuoba Hongjun were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. She and Tuoba Hongjun also had a very deep relationship.
But when she was pregnant with her eldest daughter, the vixen Jiang Xiaojing took advantage of the situation and hooked up with Tuoba Hongjun, who was a prince at the time.
At that time, Jiang Xiaojing was married into the palace by Tuoba Hongjun as a concubine. Since then, Tuoba Hongjun has been very fond of that vixen.
The queen became angrier and angrier as she thought about it, and cursed in her heart. But now, no matter how angry she was, she had to keep a smile on her face at this palace banquet.
Concubine Jiang Xiaojing, who was sitting next to the queen, knew that the queen was very angry at the moment, and she was very happy in her heart. The two of them had been fighting openly and secretly for so many years.
Jiang Xiaojing deliberately wanted to provoke the queen, and said softly: "Sister, why hasn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince come back yet? Hasn't he sent back any news? It's really worrying!"
When the queen heard this, she was furious and wanted to tear this bad bitch apart immediately, but she still suppressed her anger and said coldly:
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is on a diplomatic mission to Western Chu on behalf of our Danyan Kingdom. Whether there is any news coming back is not something you should worry about. Concubine Jing! Don't you know to this day that the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs?"
The queen's words instantly turned Jiang Xiaojing's face cold. She didn't expect the queen to say this in front of the emperor. She quickly said in a tender voice:
"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant. I'm just worried about the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
She thought to herself, why hasn't this vicious queen died yet? She always goes against me.
Tuoba Hongjun frowned, feeling unhappy that the prince had not sent back any news for some time.
He was also good to the prince. After all, Tuoba Di was his first son, who was not only smart but also had profound kung fu skills.
He knew very well that his son was very ambitious and wanted to dominate the entire Yuzhou Continent. Seeing his ambition, he had no intention of giving the position of crown prince to another son.
The emperor also had feelings for Wanyan Liqiong, but he felt that the queen was too jealous.
Just as the emperor's thoughts drifted away, a eunuch's scream came from outside the hall: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
When they heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had arrived, everyone in the hall had a different expression on their face.
A smile immediately broke out on the Queen's face. Her family, the Tutor's family, and the ministers from the Crown Prince's lineage all breathed a sigh of relief.
The Second Prince, who had just looked so proud, now had a gloomy face. Why did Tuoba Di come back? Did he send so many people but still failed to kill him?
Tuoba Feng was eager to kill the prince because although his father was good to him, he never thought of giving him the position of prince.
Jiang Xiaojing, who was making fun of the queen just now, was also shocked. How come Tuoba Di came back? How could her son behave in front of the emperor?
When everyone was thinking about their own things, Crown Prince Tuoba Di appeared in everyone's sight wearing bright yellow crown prince robes.
He walked slowly into the hall and bowed to the Queen Mother. "Grandmother, I am late. I wish you good luck, happiness, longevity and good health!"
"Good! Good! Di'er, it's good that you're back!" said the Queen Mother happily.
Tuoba Di bowed to the emperor and said respectfully, "Father, I am back."
