287, identity revealed?
About many years ago, before the Clan even entered the pass, Anihilate showed a weak side when facing the Clan. No matter how powerful a person is, he seems to be born inferior to the Clan when he comes to the Clan. Perhaps it is precisely this attitude that makes the Clans look down on the Clans from the bottom of their bones and feel that they have no roots at all.
Probably... I haven't seen someone so strong in the face of the clan for many years, and he is still a woman.
Not only the messenger who presented the gift was stunned, but everyone present except Jun Wuhuan, Nangong Yuyue and others were stunned.
After a while, the messenger seemed to finally come back to his senses and said in anger: "Are the princess afraid of causing war between the two countries?" As soon as this was said, many Apocalypse officials could not help but frowned slightly and showed a look of worry. The messenger could not help but show a hint of pride in his eyes. He knew this would be like this!
Chu Ling's expression was as calm as ever, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "If you want to fight, what will the Northern Jin Emperor send you to do? If you say such words in such a place, aren't you afraid... can't you return to Northern Jin alive? Could it be that the adults wanted to be loyal to the country and specially angered me? I don't think you look like a member of the Clan. However, if you really have this idea, the palace can also help you."
The messenger's face turned blue and purple. He was indeed not a member of the Clan. He was one of the families who stayed in Shangjing and surrendered to the Northern Jin Dynasty. However, he has not been valued in the Clan over the years. Finally, the family has obtained this Apocalypse who has followed Tuoba Liang to obtain the Apocalypse because of his achievements as a dragon. Naturally, he would never dare to mess it up.
"Two...the two countries are in conflict, and the envoy will not be killed." The envoy said gritting his teeth.
Chu Ling said lightly: "There is no such rule for the Clan. Since the adults have regarded themselves as members of the Clan, they should accept the rules of the Clan. Why do they remember the rules of the Clan? What's more, everyone gets...shuo, and he is punished."
The messenger was swept by Chu Ling's sharp eyes and could not help but staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, a guard next to him reached out and grabbed him, which made him barely stand firm. He lost such a big face, and the messenger was both angry and ashamed but could not help Chu Ling. No matter how powerful the Northern Jin Dynasty was, they were now standing in the palace of the Age of Qi. Even if the Clan tribe could break through the Lingcang River defense line in the next moment, the Age of Qi could kill him first.
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.
The people of Northern Jin are domineering and strong by nature. When they see their own people fall below, they are naturally unwilling to sit idly. A middle-aged man from the clan stood up and whispered: "We sincerely come to pay homage to the princess. Is this the way to treat guests in the weather?"
After not speaking, Jun Wuhuan said calmly: "The people of Northern Jin Dynasty do not know the etiquette, and even the gifts given to the princess are not suitable. The princess has politely declined. You are still so ignorant of advancing and retreating. You are still embarrassed to blame Tianqi for not knowing how to treat guests?"
The middle-aged man obviously knew Jun Wuhuan. He looked at him and then snorted softly, "Young Master Changli, you really have you everywhere."
Jun Wuhuan disagreed and smiled indifferently: "What's so strange about having Jun here? Is it... it's better for adults to be here?"
The middle-aged man stared at Jun Wuhuan for a long time and suddenly said coldly: "It's not surprising that Mr. Changli is here, but I don't know... Is it strange that Princess Wu'an appears here?"
"Princess Wu'an?!" Everyone was shocked. They all knew the title of Princess Wu'an, but this was definitely not the title of Tianqi. Tianqi advocated women's skillfulness and gentleness, and there would never be a font like Wu'an in the title of Princess Royal Princess. On the contrary, the missing Tuoba Xingye's personal disciple last year was the Princess Wu'an, who was personally named by the former Emperor of Northern Jin.
Many people couldn't help but look around, wanting to see who this princess Wu'an, who can be said to be famous all over the world, was.
Many people have heard that this female disciple who made Tuoba Xingye look at him differently was a celestial person. However, there were many noble girls sitting in this hall, but no one looked like the legendary Princess Wu'an. Someone couldn't help but look at Chu Ling who was sitting in the hall, and a brave year rose in his heart. This Princess Shenyou looked very powerful and came back from Shangjing again. In fact, no one knew about her situation in Northern Jin in the past few years, could it be...
I went to see the man of the tribe standing in the hall again, and indeed saw that he looked straight at the Princess Shenyou sitting in the hall.
Emperor Yongjia had known Chu Ling's identity in Shangjing for a long time, and he also knew that some of the envoys from the Northern Jin Dynasty would definitely recognize Chu Ling. He was not very surprised to have prepared in advance, but he looked a little calm.
Emperor Yongjia was calm, and Chu Ling became even more calm.
The middle-aged man obviously did not expect that Emperor Yongjia and Chu Ling would react like this, especially Emperor Yongjia. Based on his understanding of him, this person has never been a person who has remained unchanged in the face of Mount Tai collapse. As an emperor, he is really much weaker than ordinary people. Since he is doing this now, it can only prove that Emperor Yongjia has long known that Princess Shenyou is Princess Wu'an.
In this way... his news not only did not hurt the relationship between Emperor Yongjia and Princess Shenyou, but might have helped them.
However... the eyes swept to many Apocalypse officials in the hall, and more or less saw shock and suspicion on their faces. The middle-aged man sneered in his heart. Can't he be hurt? It's not necessarily.
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man looked at Chu Ling sitting on the ground and said, "I don't know what the princess has to explain this."
Chu Ling frowned slightly and said lightly: "Don't you think you're too careless? Why do I want to explain to you?"
The middle-aged man was stunned and stared at Chu Ling in shock, "What does princess mean? As my princess Wu'an in the Northern Jin Dynasty and the personal disciple of General Tuoba, you are now said to be the Princess Shenyou of Tianqi. Don't you need an explanation for my emperor and General Tuoba?"
Chu Ling said: "What's the point of explanation? General Tuoba is so skilled in martial arts. I want to learn from the general and then take him as my teacher. What's the matter with you Emperor Northern Jin? The title of Princess Wu'an was also the one who was named by the Emperor of Northern Jin for the sake of his master's face. It was not something I used to trick him into. In other words, even if the general's disciples are not the Emperor of Northern Jin, the Emperor of Northern Jin will still be named."
There was an uproar in the hall, and many people couldn't help but want to speak, but Shangguan Chengyi's eyes were signaled to press back. Lord Zhu sat next to Shangguan Chengyi, staring at Chu Ling steadily, obviously having something to say. But he was more calm than ordinary officials after all, and knew that this was not the time to speak, so he quietly held the wine glass and stared at Chu Ling without saying anything.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said, "So, the princess admits that you deceived General Tuoba?"
Chu Ling shrugged and said, "At most of the time, it can only be considered as an invisible disciple. Is this palace not asking about the secrets of Northern Jin, nor does it steal anything from you. The general is not allowed to accept foreign disciples. You said it earlier, what does it mean to pursue it now?"
The middle-aged man snorted and sneered: "Does the princess hide her name or secretly collude with General Tuoba..."
Chu Ling yawned a little lazily and said, "It's your business to think about it. General Tuoba is your general of Northern Jin and not my general of Tianqi. You are willing to charge him with a crime of stolen land, which is only good for us. Just be happy."
"..." Who is so happy!
The hall was originally lively and festive, and suddenly there was a strange silence. Almost everyone's eyes in the hall fell on Chu Ling. People couldn't help but want to watch this magical girl. A princess Apocalypse could actually call the No. 1 master of the Clan incognito, and even let the Northern Jin Emperor enthrone the princess. For such a woman, everyone suddenly felt that the things she caused to come back these days were really normal.
Jun Wuhuan was also looking at Chu Ling, but there was a faint smile in his eyes, as if he was watching a good show.
If these people knew that Ah Ling was a young general of the Jingbei Army or the person who assassinated the Northern Jin Emperor, I wonder what expression would it be? No matter what expression it was, it would definitely be very interesting.
The middle-aged man naturally was unwilling to let his purpose be broken effortlessly. He was about to say something, but Nangong Yuyue's voice sounded faintly, "Okay, Ke Teji, you have too many words tonight."
The middle-aged man was stunned and looked at Nangong Yuyue. But he saw Nangong Yuyue leaning against the armrest of the chair, looking at him coldly. A layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on Ke Teji's vest. He actually forgot that the person who could make the decision on the openly mission to Apocalypse this time was Nangong Yuyue. What Nangong Yuyue hated the most was others' own decisions.
"National...National Teacher..."
Nangong Yuyue only glanced at him and said lightly: "Get back."
"...Yes, the national teacher." Although he was unwilling to give up, Ke Teji did not dare to be arrogant in front of Nangong Yuyue. When he saw Qin Shu next to him, he had no expression at all, so he could only bow his head and retreat.
Then Nangong Yuyue raised her glass to Chu Ling and said, "My subordinates are ignorant, which disturbs the interests of His Majesty and the princess. Please forgive me."
Emperor Yongjia smiled, as if he could no longer remember the displeasure just now, and said with a smile: "The national teacher is so serious, don't take it to heart, please drink."
As a result, the hall seemed to have returned to its original noisy. However, it is unknown how many people were unaware of the food during the banquet.
Emperor Yongjia looked at the scene of joyful and cheerful cups in the hall, and naturally he could feel how many eyes were sweeping towards the hall intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing Emperor Yongjia looking at him frequently, Chu Ling couldn't help but lean over and laughed softly, "What's wrong with Father?"
Emperor Yongjia sighed in person, and lowered his voice and said, "Be careful these days, let's live in the palace first."
Chu Ling shook her head and smiled, "Don't worry, Father, I know it. I'll be in trouble after hiding in the palace at this time."
Emperor Yongjia was a little helpless, "You..."
Chu Ling smiled and said, "I know my father is worried about me, so I ask my father to believe me. I am a disciple of Tuoba Xingye."
Speaking of this, even though I have known the truth for a long time, Emperor Yongjia felt that he could not digest the news. Who was Tuoba Xingye? Although Tianqi people hated the people of the Clan to the core, they were still afraid of Tuoba Xingye when they mentioned it, and admired him more than hated him. In Chu Ling's words, Tuoba Xingye is the most like a general in the world, and also the most dignified and consecrated general in this world.
Such a person, his daughter could have deceived him and let him take him as a disciple. Emperor Yongjia suddenly became a little inexplicably proud.
The father and daughter were talking in a low voice in the hall, and naturally they couldn't hear the person below, but the atmosphere between them could be seen that His Majesty did not have any gaps in Princess Shenyou because of what happened just now. Looking at Chu Dieyi, who was sitting behind Princess Anxin, sitting down with her eyebrows and not talking, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It was so much worse. It seemed that this person was probably not real. He didn't know what Princess Shenyou and His Majesty kept her for?
Others could not hear their conversation, but Nangong Yuyue and Jun Wuhuan, who were sitting in the front and had extraordinary internal strength, could hear it.
Nangong Yuyue frowned and looked at Emperor Yongjia, who was joking with Chu Ling with a deep look. Jun Wuhuan turned his head and glanced at him faintly and said, "National Master, you should be more restrained in your life."
Nangong Yuyue snorted lightly and said disdainfully: "When he threw Sheng Sheng in Shangjing for more than ten years, how can he show the deep love between father and daughter? Hypocrisy!"
Jun Wuhuan said: "The head of the Yantuo family and the Empress Dowager of Northern Jin are both sincerely concerned about you."
"So what?" Nangong Yuyue sneered and said disapprovingly, "They don't care when I need it. Now I don't need it anymore, so they come up to do it for whom."
Jun Wuhuan stopped talking. He had known that Nangong Yuyue had this kind of personality. He could not see any real feelings in front of him. If you were perfunctory or slandering him, he might still think you were interesting and useful. But if you held a sincere heart in front of him, he would not only pick it up and throw it into the dust, but also raise his foot and step on a few feet and crush it a few times, and then laugh at you with a condescending silence and hypocrisy. He would never understand what others were doing. As long as he decided that you were not good, even if you bleed your blood for him, he would only think you were stupid.
Jun Wuhuan suffered a lot when he was a child, and his understanding of the world and human nature had already penetrated into his bones. From the first time he saw the old man bringing Nangong Yuyue back, he knew what kind of person Nangong Yuyue was. Later, Yun Xingyue's tragic experience just confirmed his point of view. Therefore, Jun Wuhuan never preached to Nangong Yuyue, nor did he attempt to use the friendship of brotherhood to influence him. In short, if he has interests, he will cooperate, and if he gets angry, he will beat him until he is obedient and admits defeat. Nangong Yuyue holds revenge, but he is very smart and will never really do anything troublesome because of temporary hatred. Of course, his true mind is often exceptional.
Such Nangong Yuyue naturally looked down on Emperor Yongjia's kindness and kindness towards Chu Ling. Even such a father-daughter relationship would make him instinctively feel a desire to destroy it.
Qin Shu, who was sitting beside Jun Wuhuan, naturally heard the conversation between the two. Although he was a little stupid, Qin Shu was such a smart person. After a little thought, he understood a little. He smiled faintly: "It is because the princess has suffered over the years that Emperor Cheng Yongjia feels guilty that he is particularly tolerant and kind to the princess."
Nangong Yuyue glanced at him and said, "Why didn't the King of Western Qin be tolerant to the eldest prince?" National Master Nangong has always been good at poking others' hearts.
The smile on Qin Shu's face suffocated, and after a while, he reopened, and shook his head and said, "This is different."
Nangong Yuyue said sarcastically: "It's really different."
I don't know what he meant.
Jun Wuhuan glanced at the two of them, and simply leaned back to lean against the back of the chair to let the space out to speak to them. Unexpectedly, these two had nothing to say at all. Jun Wuhuan let go and looked at each other and was speechless immediately, and the atmosphere was awkward for a moment.
Qin Shu coughed lightly, looked at Jun Wuhuan and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, can you still be safe in the Changli Master?"
Jun Wuhuan nodded slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, I'm lucky to be safe."
Qin Shu glanced at Chu Ling who was also looking at them and said, "Young Master Changli and... Princess, on the day of the wedding, I am afraid that I will not be able to come to congratulate you. Let me respect you first, I wish you two a good marriage soon." Jun Wuhuan picked up the wine glass and touched Qin Shu for a while, and said, "Thank you."
The night in the palace was dark. In the huge palace, except for the bright lights of the palace where the banquet was held, most of the places were already in darkness and silence.
Chu Ling took a deep breath and walked in the garden.
Although her alcohol content was pretty good, the aroma of wine lingering in the hall and those almost blatant inquiring eyes that were sitting for a long time still made people feel less comfortable. Chu Ling sued Emperor Yongjia and went out for a walk.
Jin Xue and Bai Lu followed Chu Ling, and Jin Xue was still a little confused. Bai Lu looked at her and couldn't help but smile on her lips. Although it was the first time she knew that the princess was actually Princess Wu'an, a disciple of Tuoba Xingye, her ability to accept was obviously much better than that of Jin Xue. At this time, the look at Chu Ling was also equally warm, but there was reverence and surprise inside.
Chu Ling sighed helplessly and said, "Can you stop staring at me?"
People like them are sensitive to the sight of others, so she doesn't like to sit in the hall. Unexpectedly, these two girls will still stare at her when they come out.
Jin Xue came to her senses and patted her face in a hurry to make herself more awake, "Princess...Princess forgive me, I'm sorry..."
Chu Ling waved his hand and said, "Forget it, if you haven't come back to your senses, you'll find a place to rest. You don't have to follow me."
Jin Xue and Bai Er shook their heads in unison, Bai Er said, "How can that be done? Now many people must be unfavorable to the princess, especially those of the Clan tribe. The subordinates should protect the princess!" Jin Xue also nodded and said, "Let Xue Yuan go out with the princess in the future. I will only drag my legs after following the princess."
Chu Ling couldn't help laughing and led the two of them forward and sat down behind a quiet flowerbed. He looked up at the night sky covered with stars, sighed softly and said, "The good days are about to be over, and the days in the future are not so easy. Are you afraid?"
The two of them looked at her in confusion, and Chu Ling said, "Jin Xue, you are a female official in the palace. If you are afraid, I will send you back to the palace. You just need to take care of Yongle Palace in the future." Anyway, she would not stay in Yongle Palace a few times.
Jin Xue shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, since I have followed the princess, I will naturally go wherever the princess goes. Although I don't know martial arts...but I can learn it!"
Chu Ling smiled and said, "I don't have a shortage of big hands around me, so you don't have to worry about this. But if you are interested, you can learn a little bit of self-defense."
Seeing that the princess was not going to drive her away, Jin Xue breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Chu Ling's smiling eyes and nodded heavily, "I will study when I go back!"
Sitting in the quiet yard, the noise from the distance seemed to make the place quieter. Chu Ling leaned behind a stone and closed her eyes to rest. Before the banquet was halfway through, she really didn't want to return to the hall so soon. It would be a while for a while.
A sound of footsteps sounded from not far away, getting closer and closer.
The egret stepped forward, staring at the intersection with his eyes tightly.
A moment later, a figure slowly appeared at the intersection.
The visitor was wearing a light-colored long gown, which looked like a pale shadow under the dim moonlight.
"Who is coming?" Bai Er asked in a deep voice.
The man paused under his feet and then continued to walk over. When he got closer, Bai Er saw the gentle face clearly from the light in the distance.
The visitor nodded slightly to her and said, "I'm disturbing."
"Western Qin...the eldest prince?!" Jin Xue said, as a female official, Jin Xue naturally remembered the identities and names of all important people who were related to Chu Ling. Qin Shu nodded slightly, looked at Chu Ling behind the two, and whispered: "Shengsheng, I haven't seen each other for a long time. Are you reluctant to meet me?"
Chapter completed!
