Chapter 58 The Childless Emperor 57

As soon as the Northern Di King Tuoba Hong got off his horse, Su Mu went to greet him and the two exchanged greetings.

Su Mu smiled and said, "I am Su Mu, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites of the Great Qi. The Emperor has specially ordered us to be fully responsible for receiving the Beidi envoys from the capital! The King of Beidi has come here, and we are sorry for not welcoming you in person. I hope you will forgive us."

Tuoba Hong laughed and said, "Minister Su, you are too polite! This time I came here to discuss peace, and by the way, I will meet the Emperor of Daqi and present my Northern Di gift!"

A soldier behind him took a few steps forward, leading a majestic white tiger. The white tiger opened its bloody mouth and roared, scaring everyone around.

Tuoba Hong smiled proudly and said, "This white tiger is our Beidi national treasure. Today I am presenting it to your emperor as a gift!"

Su Mu was secretly shocked, but he remained calm on the surface and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, King Beidi! This tiger is extremely powerful and is indeed a rare creature. I will report this to the emperor, and I believe the emperor will definitely like this generous gift."

Then, the two sides began to introduce their officials and envoys to each other and arranged the subsequent itinerary. Su Mu invited the King of Beidi and other officials to rest at the post station and said that he would arrange for them to meet the Emperor of Daqi as soon as possible.

Beidi King Tuoba Hong nodded, expressing his satisfaction. Then, he led his men and followed Su Mu and others to the post station.

The news of the Northern Di delegation's visit to the capital had already spread throughout the city, so when the Northern Di people entered the capital, many people came to watch.

Everyone's face was full of curiosity and anticipation, wanting to see what this legendary King of Beidi looked like.

Both sides of the main street in the capital were crowded with people, the streets were blocked with traffic, everyone had an excited look on their faces, craning their necks to look over here, and chattering.

"This is the King of Beidi. He looks so majestic."

"Look at that white tiger, it's so fierce!"

"The white tiger is the king of beasts, so it is naturally mighty and majestic!"

"Wow, these Beidi people are so tall, all of them are tall and mighty, so fierce!"

"Look at the horses they are holding. Are they good horses? If Da Qi also had such fine horses, how could it be the turn of Bei Di to show off its might?"

"We in Great Qi don't have a thousand-mile horse, but we have General Wu and General Su! We still defeated them! We even captured their third prince! Otherwise, how could the Northern Di invaders enter the capital this time!"

"Yes, yes. I heard that our emperor wants to negotiate peace with the King of Beidi. The Beidi delegation came to Beijing to discuss the peace!"

"Their three princes were all defeated by our General Su Lie and are now prisoners. Why are these Northern Di people so arrogant?"

"That's right. Now everyone knows how brave General Su is! He went in and out seven times without any injury!"

The King of Beidi rode on his horse, looking at the crowded crowds on both sides, with no ripples in his heart. He had experienced this the last time he came to Beijing.

The Northern Di envoys following him were proud at first, as if they were showing off their power to the Great Qi. Later, when they heard the crowd mention the capture of the third prince, the faces of those with poor concentration began to turn grim, but Tielemu remained expressionless, having been prepared.

"That's right! Don't encourage others and destroy our own prestige! We are also very powerful!"

"Look, is there a girl in that carriage?" A sharp-eyed person spotted the Northern Di princess, Tuoba Jiao, who had not gotten off the carriage.

"Really? Why is there a female envoy in the Beidi delegation?"

"Could it be a gift for our emperor? A beauty trap?..." I have to say, the public's eyes are really sharp, someone has found out the truth!

Su Mu also discovered Tuoba Jiao in the delegation, but the King of Beidi did not introduce him, and he did not ask immediately. He just winked at his men and asked them to report the matter to their superiors.

Su Yu in the restaurant was also boasting to Chen Tianlin, "See! I was right! This Beidi King is not bad looking! He has a bit of aura!"

"He was an exception! Look at the other people in the delegation, aren't they all big and strong?" Chen Tianlin was not convinced. How could he have guessed wrong? Whoever spread rumors, I will find him out and settle accounts with him!

"Putting aside other things, is there another person in that carriage? Look, it's a woman!" Su Yu also discovered Tuoba Jiao at this time, and called for people to look in surprise.

The people who came out of the window to watch because the Northern Di delegation was passing by were also surprised to see a female envoy.

"Could this be the Beidi princess who is to be given to the emperor?" Su Ning remembered what his second brother had said about the Beidi royal family.

When Su Lie was telling them about the affairs of Lancheng, he mentioned that the King of Beidi had three sons and one daughter. The eldest prince, the second prince and the princess were born to a concubine and were brothers from the same mother. The third prince Tuoba Yan, who had been captured by him before, was born to the princess.

The girl in gorgeous clothes on the carriage is probably the princess born to the concubine.

Everyone in the box listened carefully to Suning's explanation and analyzed who were the members of the Beidi royal family.

"Brother, now that you mention it, it's true!" Su Yu felt that there was a high possibility that this woman was a princess.

"Then why did the King of Beidi bring his daughter here?"

Su Ning frowned, "Maybe, this is really a gift to the Emperor for marriage!"

Hearing the word "marriage", Miss Chen Rujin of the Chen family secretly glanced through the screen. Su Ning, who was frowning and thinking with his head down, blushed and quickly looked away!

Everyone was attracted by the Beidi delegation and Suning downstairs, and no one else noticed her action.

The Northern Di envoys downstairs had already gone far away, but the topics they left behind made the atmosphere more and more lively.

In restaurants, teahouses and on the roadside, people can be seen discussing Beidi everywhere, from people, to accessories, to carriages, to big white tigers. There are so many topics!

Yuwen Ze and everyone in the imperial palace received the news that there was a woman in the Northern Di delegation.

Yuwen Ze was also wondering what the purpose of the King of Beidi's move was. Was he pretending to be weak or sincerely seeking peace?

The queen had a hunch that the woman's final destination would most likely be the harem of the Great Qi Dynasty.

She had already begun to consider the emperor's attitude and which palace to place the person in. It certainly couldn't be close to Yuehua Palace, it had to be as far away from Yuehua Palace as possible.

Concubine Yun is already 7 months pregnant, and there is no telling when the triplets will be born prematurely, so preparations have already begun! Unstable factors like the Princess of Beidi must not be allowed near Concubine Yun, just in case.

The person involved, Su Yun, didn't think about this and was still watching the show.

It is a real pleasure to have a storyteller in my palace. Every time I listen to him tell about the grand scenes, I feel as if I am there, watching them live. It is even more exciting than being there in person!
