Chapter 77: The Cold Tyrant Is Not the Same as He Looks (24)

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, its light pouring down like a waterfall, covering every inch of the palace.

The Qianqing Hall was ablaze with lights, flickering candlelight. Delicacies filled the table, and the aroma of wine mingled with the fragrance of flowers in the air.

The elegant stringed music played leisurely, the dancers danced gracefully, their clothes fluttering like colorful clouds.

Foreign nations came to pay tribute, and envoys from various countries complimented each other.

Only the envoys from Youyan and Yanchu looked pale. The envoys from the two countries were sitting in separate compartments, very close to each other, and they disliked each other.

There were envoys from other vassal states at the banquet who were confused and only found out after secretly asking.

It turns out that all this started with the incident in which the two countries conspired to assassinate Emperor Cangwu.

The incident caused a huge uproar at the time and even affected the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

The Youyan envoy believed that the assassination attempt was a waste of Yanchu's assassin. Not only did the assassination fail, but he was also killed in return, losing his life in vain.

The Yanchu envoy thought Youyan's beauty trap was too effective! However, the beauty he sent out was a fool and was seduced by the tyrant Cangwu. It was really a "beauty trap" that went against the grain.

As a result, the failed assassination attempt caused a complete feud between the two countries, and they became enemies and never had any contact with each other again.

The envoy from the vassal state was shocked. The Emperor of Cangwu used the assassination to sow discord between the Youyan and Yanchu alliances, effortlessly making the two countries unknowingly hate each other. It was simply...

God man!

He was amazed, thinking that this was what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.

Then, the envoy of the vassal state turned his gaze to the other side where the situation was tense.

Prime Minister Li, Grand Tutor Yu and King Qi were sitting across from each other. When their eyes met, there seemed to be an electric current running through them, and hostility was in the air.

Grand Tutor Yu was the first to speak out, saying with a forced smile, "Prime Minister Li, I've seen you looking so proud these days, but please don't get carried away."

The implication is that Prime Minister Li is monopolizing power in the court, but he is unaware of the disaster that is about to happen to him.

Prime Minister Li's expression remained unchanged. He leisurely took a sip from his wine glass and replied, "Grand Master, you are wrong. I was only fulfilling my duty. I am nothing like the Grand Master and His Highness the Prince of Qi, who were secretly plotting something. Did they think they could conceal it from the world?"

These words were spoken so bluntly that the expressions of Grand Tutor Yu and the King of Qi changed instantly.

The King of Qi snorted coldly, "Prime Minister Li, please do not slander me. The King and the Grand Tutor are both devoted to the country. How could we possibly do anything unlawful? It is you, Prime Minister, who are trying to exclude dissidents and seize power alone."

Prime Minister Li stroked his beard and said no more. He dared to directly expose their evil ambitions, proving that he and His Majesty had made thorough preparations.

The envoy from the vassal state scratched his ears and widened his eyes in shock!

OMG!

What did he hear?!

Is the world in Cangwu about to change?!

He was trembling, thinking about whether to find an excuse to secretly leave the table, when he heard a loud shout from outside the hall:

"Your Majesty has arrived, the Empress Dowager has arrived, and the Imperial Concubine has arrived!"

He quickly stood up with everyone else, keeping quiet and holding his breath.

Qi Chen walked in with Bai Zitu and the Queen Mother.

Cangwu people admire the color black and regard it as the most respected.

Qi Chen was wearing a black dragon robe with the outline of a five-clawed golden dragon made with gold thread. As he walked, the golden dragon bared its fangs and claws, looking lifelike, as if it would break through the fabric at any time and soar into the sky, which was awe-inspiring and made people willing to submit to it.

The envoy from the vassal state knelt on the ground, looking curiously at the beautiful woman with bright eyes, white teeth and a graceful figure standing beside His Majesty Cangwu.

Is this the female assassin from Youyan, now the Imperial Concubine Cangwu?

He was a little curious at first, but now that he saw the beauty's true face, he suddenly understood.

No wonder she's the most favored concubine in the harem! If he had a beauty like this, wouldn't he have to pamper her every day...

As he thought about it, he began to look at the legendary imperial concubine curiously.

This was a remarkable sight. What did he see?

This imperial concubine was actually wearing a black dress that only the Queen of Cangwu could wear. The collar and cuffs were embroidered with delicate patterns with exquisite silver thread, and faintly visible were the phoenix patterns that symbolized the dignity of the Queen.

This discovery caused a storm of shock in his heart, and what was even more unbelievable was that

The high and mighty Emperor Cangwu, who ruled the world, was now half-holding the woman's waist in an unruly and inappropriate manner. His expression was full of undisguised tenderness and doting, as if there was nothing else in his eyes except the woman beside him.

Could it be that Emperor Cangwu really wants to make this woman of unknown origin his empress?

Not only was he surprised, but all the old ministers in Cangwu were also angry!

This is simply disgusting!

Disregarding the laws of our ancestors!

Qi Chen noticed everyone's thoughts and sneered imperceptibly. This was exactly the effect he wanted.

It would be better for these old ministers to give up the idea of ​​sending the women in their families into the palace as soon as possible.

By the way, let the envoy of Youyan and Yanchu, who slapped himself, take a good look and see that their assassin has become his favorite concubine.

Bai Zitu was tightly surrounded by these curious, wanton and resentful gazes. He felt uncomfortable all over and his face turned red.

Unfortunately, due to various previous reasons, her legs were weak and powerless, making it difficult for her to walk steadily on her own. She had no choice but to rely on Qi Chen's strong support to move forward slowly.

When she thought that this embarrassing situation was caused by the man next to her, a nameless fire surged in her heart, and she couldn't help but glare fiercely at Qi Chen who was smiling gently.

We agreed to take a break in the afternoon, but while we were doing that...

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She secretly pinched the soft flesh on Qi Chen's waist, which made Qi Chen smile even more. He leisurely enjoyed her embarrassment.

His spoiled little one is shy, and his angry look is so cute.

Queen Mother Yu saw clearly the little movements of the two people in front of her from behind, and her well-maintained face was almost distorted.

This is absolutely ridiculous. How could such a person be the emperor of Cangwu?!

Fortunately, she had a plan in advance, and let him be proud for a while longer.

Thinking of this, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then accurately caught the figure of Grand Tutor Yu among the ministers. The moment their eyes met, they exchanged a subtle glance.

Then she quickly adjusted her expression and walked calmly to her own seat.

After the three masters slowly took their seats, the eunuch Zhongshun beside them shouted in a shrill voice, "No need to be polite, please stand up."

The palace banquet was very boring.

Bai Zitu was forced to sit lazily beside Qi Chen, his eyes full of fatigue.

The envoys from Youyan brought the topic to Bai Zitu several times, but one of them was absent-mindedly meeting Zhou Gong, while the other one lightly changed the subject.

He was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

The envoy of Yanchu was so happy to see his enemy suffer a defeat that he drank a few more glasses of wine.

Bai Zitu's ears were filled with the flattering words of Qi Chen and the envoys and ministers below. She was already very sleepy, and her eyelids began to twitch constantly, and she was almost falling asleep.

Qi Chen glanced sideways inadvertently and saw Bai Zitu's appearance. He couldn't help but laugh softly, with an indelible tenderness between his eyebrows.

"Sleepy?"
