Chapter 216 Everyone Is Confused
Doubts flashed through their minds, and everyone turned their heads subconsciously.
At this glance, they almost frowned at the same time.
The clatter of horse hooves was neat and sharp. Just like in Xiqi and Northern Xinjiang, they were all led by a master leading several envoys behind him, as well as dozens of extraordinary masters as guards.
It's just that the envoys from Dongling are different from the other two countries, because the one wearing a black uniform and black cloak is actually a woman, and she is also a young woman.
What's even more surprising is that this woman actually came on horseback... No, it wasn't just her, all the people behind her came on horseback.
The young girl sitting on the horse has a beautiful appearance, a slim and tall body, and the maroon horse gently carries her slowly. The girl's jet-black hair falls behind her shoulders, and her whole body exudes a beautiful and sharp elegance.
Behind the girl, two young men who looked like civil servants followed on the left and right, and behind them were dozens of elite cavalry in black military uniforms. Sharp, cold and solemn, intimidating.
"What's going on?" The first person to raise the issue was not the Zhou Dynasty courtiers, but Lin Wu from Xiqi. He turned to look at Rong Yu coldly, "What does the regent mean? From Dongling." The envoys can ride their horses into the palace, but this general must dismount and unload his weapons before he can enter?"
"I also want to get an answer." Duanmu Yu followed, with an obvious questioning tone, "Why do we have to take off our weapons and enter the palace on foot? The envoys from Dongling can not only come in on horseback, but also carry weapons with them. ?”
Compared to Lin Wu and Duan Muyu's dissatisfaction, Su Chang stared thoughtfully at the girl on the horse, her fingers holding the wine cup slightly tightened, and the color in her eyes was deep and unpredictable.
Rong Yu didn't say anything. He sat silently in his chair without moving. He looked at the approaching Dongling Guards with an expressionless face. His eyes fell on the face of the leading woman, and then he turned his eyes slightly to make sure that his mother-in-law was not there. Among them, his eyebrows relaxed slightly, and he turned to look at Lin Wu: "How does Da Zhou treat guests? Do I still need to explain to you?"
Lin Wu's face was sullen, his expression cold and angry.
The Dongling girl turned over and dismounted neatly, followed by the envoys and cavalry guards behind her. The group of people walked from the open space between the seats on the left and right, with a long red carpet under their feet, all of them with straight backs and extraordinary momentum.
"General Chu Hongyi of Dongling Town came with his envoys to pay homage to the Regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty." The girl bowed slightly, her posture was neither humble nor arrogant, and she was calm and polite. "The eldest princess of Dongling came with this general and has now entered the regent's palace. Visiting the princess. The eldest princess ordered General Ben to inform the regent that she would bring the princess into the palace at the palace banquet in the evening. In front of the Zhou royal family and civil and military officials, the princess would recognize her ancestors and return to the clan, and also look forward to the regent. The king has made arrangements.”
What?
Princess Dongling?
The officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty were confused, and they all looked at the female general from Dongling in confusion, and secretly asked, what is she talking about?
What does it mean to recognize one's ancestors? Who is the eldest princess of Dongling? Why did you go to the Regent's Palace to visit the Princess?
The expressions of Su Shang, Lin Wu and Duan Muyu suddenly became serious, and the three of them smelled an unusual smell almost invariably.
Aventurine.
In the minds of the people of the world, it is a powerful, mysterious country that has no conflicts with the world. It always lives in a corner and never participates in the disputes between other countries. Because this country seems to be covered with a layer of mystery, other countries rarely take the initiative to follow the East. Of course, if Ling is an enemy, there is no need to deliberately make friends with him.
But the current situation seems to be beyond their control.
When did Dongling have contact with Dazhou?
Rong Yu pursed her thin lips slightly, and a trace of complicated and incomprehensible emotions flashed through her deep eyes. After a moment, he nodded lightly: "I understand, please take a seat, General Chu."
Chu Hongyi nodded and thanked her, turned around and found an empty seat and sat down, not caring whether she was sitting up or down.
The banquet was as silent as snow.
Due to the unexpected arrival of the Dongling envoy, the anger suddenly became subtle. Everyone's expressions were a little confused, and almost no one spoke for a while.
"By the way, there is one more thing." Chu Hongyi stood up and bowed towards Rong Yu, "The eldest princess is here to marry Da Zhou."
Ministers: "..." Another marriage?
They really don't understand. Do these countries want to marry the Zhou Dynasty, or do they want to start a war in the name of marriage?
"The eldest princess said that in order to thank the regent for his sincerity to the crown prince of Dongling, she, as an elder, gave her a great gift, which can be regarded as part of the dowry for her daughter." Chu Hongyi said in a calm tone, "Xiqi, Nanyue and The imperial capital of Northern Xinjiang is supervised by Jiuxiao Pavilion forces, and the emperors of various countries are also closely monitored by Jiuxiao Pavilion experts. As long as the border gates are moved, they can kill the emperor as soon as they receive the news, and cause civil strife in the three countries. In addition, if the regent is right. If the envoys from the Three Kingdoms are dissatisfied, you can do whatever you want to do with them. You can make them unable to come and go, and see who dares to be arrogant in front of the regent. "
After the words fell, there was dead silence again.
The civil and military officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty were completely confused. Listening to the meaning of these words... Dongling seems to be an ally?
If this great gift from the eldest princess is true, it is simply good news that the whole world celebrates. The lives of the emperors of the Three Kingdoms are in their hands. Wouldn't it be like letting the masters of Jiuxiao Pavilion knead them into balls and flatten them?
But, is the regent sincere to the prince of Dongling? What does this mean?
The person who gave the Prince Regent his sincerity was obviously the Princess Regent, Nan Xi, the legitimate daughter of the Nanxiang Mansion. Where did the Prince of Dongling come from?
The envoys from Xiqi, South Vietnam and Northern Xinjiang were completely frozen.
"Impossible!" Lin Wu was the first to sternly retort, and taunted coldly, "You think you can scare us by moving Jiuxiao Pavilion out? Who are you fooling? Jiuxiao Pavilion never interferes in the affairs of the courts of various countries, so you can talk nonsense here. Do you think we will believe it? Besides, Jiuxiao Pavilion is just a Jianghu force. Do you really think that they have the power to control whoever they want? "
"Whether it's a joke or not, you don't need to believe it." Chu Hongyi turned her head, her eyes cold and charming, "This general is only responsible for conveying the words of the eldest princess, and these words are conveyed to the regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who are you? Dare you bark in front of this general?"
Everyone was stunned: "..." This female general from Dongling has such a hot temper.
"You are simply looking for death!" Lin Wu's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Do you believe that this general will tear you alive?"
Chu Hongyi's tone was indifferent: "I would like to see who tore who."
When Lin Wu heard this, he rushed out quickly and said coldly and angrily: "Don't say that I, the general, bully the small. I will give you three moves first. If you don't let you kneel down and kowtow, I will be your grandson!"
