The Prime Minister's delicate wife can control her husband

The second prince Yao Qi arrived at the place where the Qi envoys were hosting a banquet as promised. With the envoys' introduction, he came to the backyard to meet the two people. The envoy introduced them, "Second Prince, these two are our Qi's first and second princes."

Yao Qi relied on the fact that he had people everywhere in Wudu and ignored the two of them. He sat at the top seat and asked, "Why did you call me here? The matter that your Qi Kingdom promised has already been finalized by the emperor, and no one can change it."

"If you invite me for that matter, then I'd better go back home," Yao Qi said firmly.

"Second Prince, please stay." The Qi State Hall hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. "Today's matter is not about getting married. We want to help you consolidate your kingdom. After you take the throne, I want our Qi State and Wu State to see further development."

When Yao Qi heard that he wanted to help him take the throne, he immediately became interested, but he still declined, "Everything is decided by my father, so I'd better give up!" He was worried that this matter would be exposed and he would completely lose the opportunity to compete for the throne.

After that, he left! On the way back to the mansion, he asked a servant to tell the prince that Wudu would meet him in the big painting boat tomorrow, and he could only ask him to go alone without guards.

Huang Yu, the Grand Prince of Qi, received the reply from the servant and said to the envoy, "Let's start the opportunity!"

They came to Wu State with two purposes, one of which was to make the two princes of Wu State fight for the throne openly.

The servant returned to the room and brought back the message, "Second Prince, the man from Qi agreed!"

"Ok!"

"Knock, knock, knock." The door of the courtyard where Qi Guo lived just now rang. The followers who came with him were all on high alert. "Who is it?" asked the Second Prince.

"Yao Wu of Wu State requests to see you!" Zhou Tong answered without asking.

"Yao Wu?" The envoy said to the two princes, "You've never heard of this person?"

The eyes of the first and second princes tightened, "How about asking about the situation first?"

"Come in!" the envoy shouted to Yao Wu outside the house.

Yao Wu walked in, took off his shirt, and raised his hands to indicate that they were not carrying any weapons. Seeing that he was so afraid of him, the Second Prince immediately laughed out loud.

"Hahahaha! Who are you? Why have I never heard of Yao Wu in Wu Kingdom?"

Yao Wu said humbly: "Your Highness, I am the princess's consort. My original name was Zhou Tong, but now the emperor has given me a name that changes to Yao Wu."

The envoy asked, "Are you the great prince of Zhou?"

Yao Wu nodded in agreement. When the Second Prince saw him nod, he clapped his hands and said jokingly, "You don't even recognize your own ancestors?"

The prince gestured to him and pointed to a stool, "Please sit down!"

"Excuse me, what's the purpose of His Highness Zhou Tong coming here?" The eldest prince felt that Zhou Tong in front of him was extraordinary. His second brother had just humiliated him, but he was able to remain calm and just laughed it off. This person should be the one he was most worried about during this trip to Wu State.

"I want to discuss this with you. I hope you can tell my brother that I'm alive."

"Isn't the prince of Zhou still alive now?" asked the second prince of Qi.

"Uh-huh!"

He has sent out more than ten people, but has not received any news from the Zhou State until now. As expected, these ten people have all been dealt with. Now he can only place his hopes on the envoys from the Qi State, so that he can better arrange his next plan!

"So I want you to tell my brother to send someone to rescue me!" Zhou Tong knelt on the ground and begged, "Life in Qi is too hard..." After that, he showed them the clothes he was wearing, which were tattered.

"What good will that do for us?" the second prince asked. "You also understand that this is risky. What if the people of Zhou think that we are the ones spreading rumors and then Zhou and Wu attack us?"

"Your Highness, don't worry about what you are thinking about." After that, he handed him the jade pendant that symbolized the Grand Highness of the Zhou Kingdom. "With this jade pendant, my brother will definitely come to agree to your request."

The eldest prince and the envoy all looked at each other. The eldest prince clasped his fists and said, "I will definitely convey your Highness's matter to my father and His Majesty the King of Zhou."

After they sent Yao Wu off, the three of them looked at the invitation and jade pendant on the table. The Grand Prince smiled and said, "It's only been a day since we arrived, and someone has taken the initiative to send me a secret. I wonder who else will send me a secret!"

Just as I finished telling the three of them, there was another knock on the door of the mansion, "Knock, knock, knock!"

"Who's here again?" The envoy looked at the two of them in confusion.

"Go open the door first!"

The door opened and a eunuch appeared. He said, "Your Majesty has asked His Highness Qi to come to the palace to see Him."

After the two princes were ready to leave, the eunuch stopped one of them and said, "Your Highness, I may not have explained it clearly just now. I said to let the eldest prince enter the palace, not the second prince."

The Second Prince of Qi was stopped. He shook his sleeves and snorted, watching his elder brother being taken away.

"Your Highness, please!" The eunuch stepped forward to lead the way for him. The Highness smiled smugly and said smugly, "Brother, now that King Wu has acknowledged my identity, what can you use to fight me?"

Arriving at the Dawu Palace, His Highness Qi waited outside the palace for no less than two hours. At this time, many civil and military officials had already attended the court session. Many people pointed at him as they passed by him, but His Highness Qi kept smiling at them.

The voices of people talking in the hall were getting louder and louder. From the back of the crowd came a voice from the eunuch, "Silence!"

Suddenly the hall became quiet. King Wu brought his two princes to court. The Second Prince passed by the First Prince of Qi and glanced at him, but the Prince of Qi did not raise his head to look at him.

"Announce, the eldest prince of Qi, Huang Yu, enter the palace."

Huang Yu stepped forward. Even though he was criticized a lot, he still refused to kowtow. "Huang Yu, the envoy of Qi, kowtows to His Majesty."

The civil officials who heard his words began to discuss, "This kid is determined to give face to His Majesty."

"This kid knew that we were using his identity to make trouble in the King's place, but I didn't expect him to resolve it so easily."

Envoys represent the exchanges between two countries. Your Highness is most likely to be treated as a hostage when he enters the palace, so he is naturally of lower rank.

"I have heard about your delegation's activities yesterday. Now I tell you clearly that Wang Xinlin will be named Princess Zhaoyi by me, and will marry the orthodox Qi State at a set date."

"Princess Zhaoyi?" The people below were talking among themselves, and a minister stood up.

"Why did your majesty use the name of a princess from a fallen nation to confer the title of Princess?"

"Yes! Your Majesty, I also think it is inappropriate! Please think twice."

At this time, Huang Yu immediately knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Thank you, Emperor Wu, for granting me the marriage! I wish that the friendship between our two countries will last forever."

Everyone was surprised by Huang Yu's action. Wasn't he admitting that they were not orthodox?

Huang Yu then took out the betrothal gift prepared by Emperor Qi from his sleeve, and Emperor Wu was shocked when he saw it!

Wang Pu asked, "What is the matter, Your Majesty?"

Emperor Wu smiled and said, "Are you willing to marry my daughter? And marry into the Wu Kingdom?"

"What? He's also going to marry into the family?"
