Chapter 522 Two Emperors Fight

When Tao Yanyan was supported by Xinlan and Mingyue to the Qinzheng Palace, he saw that Concubine De had already arrived.

The atmosphere in the hall was tense and not very good. The imperial physician was bandaging He Linzhang's wound, while on the other side, Mu Chenfeng was not much better, and Imperial Physician Liu was also applying medicine to him.

Seeing Tao Yanyan coming over with a big belly, He Linzhang hurriedly said, "What are you doing here? Go back and rest!" After that, he glared at Zhang Fuhai unhappily.

Zhang Fuhai: "..." I feel wronged. Everyone knows that Concubine Tao is the most precious now. How dare I tell others about His Majesty's injury?

Woohoo, who on earth was it that passed the message? I'll skin him alive when I find him out!

This will definitely make Your Majesty question his professional ability as a first-class eunuch!

Chang Tai followed behind Tao Yanyan, trembling a little. He just bribed a little eunuch in the Qinzheng Hall. The little eunuch was sworn brother to him, so he would tell him if there was any important event. It was that little brother who came to inform him of today's incident.

Tao Yanyan frowned and walked forward to check He Linzhang's injuries. Doctor Xu hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, it's just a minor scratch." After saying that, he glanced at Mu Chenfeng not far away with an unhappy look.

Humph, if you dare to hurt His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou, even if it is just a minor scratch, it will be a capital crime!

Tao Yanyan held He Linzhang's bandaged left hand with both hands: "How did you get hurt?"

Before He Linzhang could speak, Mu Chenfeng, who was applying medicine, sneered and said, "We agreed to compete, and we won't hold the other party responsible even if we get hurt. His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty made a big fuss over such a minor injury, and both concubines came to visit him. Isn't that a bit too hypocritical?"

Concubine De was so angry that she wanted to sew Mu Chenfeng's mouth shut. Didn't she hear that Mu Chenfeng had hurt His Majesty, and came all the way to speak for him and save him? If her father hadn't sent a message in, asking her to pay attention and let the Yan State delegation return to Yan State safely after the farewell banquet, she wouldn't have been so kind to come here.

Now being bullied by Mu Chenfeng, Concubine De thought about her words and said, "Your Majesty, I just happened to come here to report something and ran into you by chance." After saying that, she glanced at Concubine Tao and said, "It seems that the Concubine is paying close attention to every move in the Qinzheng Palace. Just now, Eunuch Zhang was busy in the palace and didn't seem to send anyone to deliver a message to the Concubine. Did the Concubine come here by chance as well?"

What Defei said was very strange. She implied that the imperial concubine had placed spies in the Qinzheng Palace.

Mu Chenfeng suddenly felt a little regretful. Did he cause trouble for the beauty?

Tao Yanyan knew that Chang Tai was very versatile and had sources of information everywhere in the palace. She was not sure whether Chang Tai had any friends in the Qinzheng Palace, but at this time she obviously could not admit that she had spies in the Qinzheng Palace, otherwise many things would become unclear.

She glanced at Concubine De and smiled, "Princess Xinlan came to the palace to chat with me today. She is about to return home, so she came here to pay her respects to His Majesty. I accompanied her here. When I walked outside, I saw that the atmosphere was not right. When I came in, I saw His Majesty bandaging the wound."

Xinlan stepped forward and bowed, saying, "I hope my brother will take care of himself."

Defei's provocative words had no effect. She rolled her eyes and stood aside without saying anything.

He Linzhang nodded: "It's just a minor injury, no need to worry." After that, he looked at Tao Yanyan: "You go back first, I will visit you later. Xinlan, go back too."

Xinlan thought about skipping dinner and just leaving the palace, but Tao Yanyan didn't want to leave. She and He Linzhang had guessed before that Mu Chenfeng was most likely a member of the Yan royal family. She really couldn't understand why a person who was influenced by power in the royal family would rashly come to the Great Zhou Palace to compete with His Majesty the Great Zhou when the Yan delegation was about to leave the capital of Great Zhou. What made the two of them have to fight with weapons and hurt each other?

She looked at Mu Chenfeng: "Lord Mu, please come and have a good meal. Why do you want to compete with my Majesty in martial arts?"

As soon as she finished speaking, both men frowned silently. Thinking of the two of them talking to each other, neither of them was willing to give in, and finally agreed to a competition, the two emperors felt that it seemed, it seemed, that there was indeed some drama.

Especially He Linzhang, he is the emperor, how can he compete with a "prince" of Yan State who is not sure whether he has real power? He has lost his reputation for nothing.

Mu Chenfeng's face wasn't much better either. He didn't listen to the dissuasion of the ministers of Yan State just now and insisted on having a fight. It was unknown whether it was a provocation from the defeated country to the victorious country, or a challenge from emperor to emperor, or... she was simply jealous that he had her. Mu Chenfeng just wanted to fight today. Anyway, he was leaving tomorrow, and if he didn't fight now, he would have no time.

When Concubine Tao asked about it, the two of them seemed to have made an appointment and didn't want to answer the reason for the competition at all.

"Well, okay, the reason is not important. Lord Mu seems to be injured more seriously than I am. Doctor Liu, you should use more good wound medicines. Don't let Lord Mu get scars, otherwise, he will have more scars on his face." He Linzhang said venomously.

Doctor Liu's eyes darkened, and he quickly said, "Yes, I obey your order. The ointment I prepared can speed up the healing of the wound. The scar will fade in half a month, and the wound will be invisible in a month."

When the Yan State delegation heard that the ointment from the Great Zhou was so good, someone asked, "Can this ointment be sold? We can also trade medicinal materials with the Great Zhou, and we don't have to limit it to iron ore."

He Linzhang was a little unhappy. Since Yan State started trading iron ore with Da Zhou, it has asked Da Zhou to trade cloth at the same time. In fact, he didn't want to sell Da Zhou's cloth to Yan State at all, but if this clause was not added, the iron ore trading volume would be stuck, which would bring losses to Da Zhou.

Seeing He Linzhang's bad face, Tao Yanyan smiled and said, "Medicinal materials are scarce, and our Great Zhou is not a large producer. Moreover, there is a lot of loss in the production of various ointments, and it is not 100% used. Therefore, if I don't have enough, I won't consider trading anymore."

The minister of Yan State was a little disappointed. He shook his head and sat down.

Tao Yanyan didn't care whether he was disappointed or not. She only knew that food and medicinal materials must never be exported. These two things were strategic military supplies, and she would feel at ease only if she had more in stock.

She looked at Mu Chenfeng. The scar on his face was so obvious. It was a pity that such a handsome guy was ruined by a scar.

So she smiled and said, "But we can prepare two more boxes of this scar removal cream for Lord Mu. Lord Mu can use it more when he returns."

Mu Chenfeng: “…” He suddenly regretted getting a scar when he was in disguise. If he had known that he would meet such a stunning beauty in the Great Zhou, he should have appeared in front of her with his true flawless and handsome face.

Maybe, I can still charm her.

Oh, what a mistake!

The Yan Emperor Feng Chenmu regretted it very much.

Doctor Liu stepped aside calmly and did leave two boxes of ointment - although he felt it was unnecessary.
