Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 804

"Haha! Brother Murong, it's been a long time. I thought you would live out your days alone, but you married my ex-wife and had three princes. It's clear you have good taste, Brother Murong!"

At the banquet, Emperor Sikong Xuanche of Beigong Kingdom began to provoke Murong Yu without any restraint, speaking without any regard for Murong Yu's feelings.

Both were crown princes in the past, making them natural rivals.

The officials of the Great Xia Dynasty were not unfamiliar with such scenes, but they never expected that even after becoming emperor, Sikong Xuanche would still be so arrogant and show no restraint whatsoever.

However, his words successfully provoked the anger of the Great Xia's subjects and put considerable pressure on Yun Xiyue.

Murong Yu remained indifferent, showing no sign of anger. "Unprecedented in history, this is truly a great emperor for all time. Brother Sikong, you need not envy me too much."

Bah!

I don't envy you at all.

They're mocking you!

Sikong Xuanche's smile froze, his cold eyes filled with extreme mockery, which he made no attempt to hide. "Of course, only Brother Murong in this world has such a peculiar taste. He doesn't want three thousand beauties in his harem, but instead dotes on a second-marriage empress."

"I could not do it, for I would be struck dead by lightning by my ancestors."

Murong Yu laughed and said, "Our ancestors of Great Xia would not meddle in other people's business, and besides, A Yue is a good woman who brings good fortune to her husband and country. Remarrying is just abandoning the past and making a new choice, which only proves that her choice is right."

"Oh, by the way, Brother Sikong, I heard that your empress is the most beautiful woman in the Northern Palace Kingdom, but she can't give birth to a prince. Is there some hidden illness? Should A-Yue ask her master, the divine physician, to take a look at you?"

Sikong Xuanche's face was visibly dark. He got married before Murong Yu, and the two were born on the same day, month, and year.

It's just a different time.

Coincidentally, the two were named crown princes at birth.

Because of this relationship, they have been compared quite a bit.

Sikong Xuanche has never beaten him.

They went to war and almost lost their country.

Now it's about comparing children. Murong Yu married late, yet he already has three princes, and it was triplets in one pregnancy.

Then look at his harem of three thousand beauties, with one on each side, yet his empress has not given birth to a legitimate son. He cannot depose her, because the empress of Beigong Kingdom is the daughter of the prime minister, and her maternal grandfather is the great general of Beigong Kingdom.

Both civil and military officials were her supporters.

The situation in the Northern Palace Kingdom is much more serious than that in the Great Xia Kingdom.

Sikong Xuanche also wanted to fight with the court officials, but all his efforts were in vain because he was surrounded by his father-in-law and his wife's maternal grandfather.

They're their own people, completely controlled.

Murong Yu had previously firmly grasped military power and controlled the court, but now his maternal uncle had also been executed by him, dying a violent death.

In terms of strategies for governing a country, Sikong Xuanche lost.

In terms of legitimate sons, he is inferior; the harem is full of illegitimate sons and daughters.

Royal families value legitimate bloodlines.

What does it mean to not have a legitimate son?

Murong Yu snorted when he saw that he had been humiliated, and ordered his men to bring the three princes over. He carried two of them, and Yunxi carried one.

Who wouldn't be envious of this scene? The three princes are exquisitely beautiful, clever, and adorable.

She didn't cry even when faced with big events; instead, she laughed in her parents' arms.

Born with a red mole between his eyebrows, he is truly a dragon among men.

Everyone is looking forward to seeing the princes who are triplets.

Then they all showed gentle smiles.

No one could dislike such an adorable child.

"So adorable! May I hold you?" Emperor Lin Huangjin of the Southern Qiang Kingdom asked with a smile.

Yun Xiyue hugged the child tightly, then instinctively refused, saying, "The child is shy around strangers."

"Your Majesty, are you afraid I will harm the child?"

"Sigh, it's really heartbreaking. We were friends, after all." Lin Huangjin stared at her coldly, never forgetting the image of her shooting an arrow into his chest.
