Princess of the auxiliary country

Chapter 415; Anger

"Hahaha, what a fool."

As soon as he heard the news, King Qi burst out laughing in the mansion, his laughter shaking the sky.

Originally, the King of Qin invited the dignitaries of the capital to a banquet, which made King Qi very unhappy. He also felt that this guy might have ulterior motives, especially after hearing that he actually sent a post to Huo Junyao, Princess Zhaode, he was even more intent on it. Want to see a joke.

Because in his opinion, Princess Zhaode would not agree at all. After all, she has never liked to attend various banquets. In recent years, she has only attended some banquets in the palace that must be attended, and she has hardly attended banquets. .

At first, he had the mentality of watching a good show, but after hearing that Princess Zhaode agreed, he felt angry and his face hurt.

At the same time, he was even more afraid of King Qin. He didn't expect him to have such a big reputation that even Princess Zhaode could invite him.

There were not many people who had the same idea as him, otherwise there wouldn't have been so many people at King Qin's banquet.

Although the King of Qin had invited everyone, there were many twists and turns in the capital, especially there were many people from the King Qi and King Chu factions.

These people may not necessarily give King Qin face, so when King Qin invited so many people at the beginning, it was estimated that only one-third of them would actually show up.

Most of these people still have little background and are small-time people who dare not give the King of Qin face, or they are people who once had a relationship with Prince Yide, or people like the eldest princess Ningyang, who left the royal family. A closer relative.

But the number and quality were definitely very small. However, because Huo Junyao also wanted to participate, some people who had not planned to go felt the need to go there to save face.

That's why so many people gathered at Prince Qin's Mansion, not to give Prince Qin face, but to give face to Huo Junyao. In other words, some people wanted to take this opportunity to make friends with Huo Junyao.

As we all know, Princess Zhaode lives in seclusion and rarely meets outsiders. Considering her status, she is not accessible to just anyone.

But now, before Huo Junyao even entered the city gate, she was so offended by Gao Changting that she turned around and stopped participating.

Wouldn’t that mean picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon?

Although Gao Changting is the youngest daughter of Marquis Xuanwu, in the end she can only be regarded as an official lady. Putting aside her status as Marquis Xuanwu, there is nothing outstanding about her.

As for the status of Marquis Xuanwu, others might give him face or be afraid of him, but Princess Zhaode would not be afraid.

He also has a strong background, even much higher than Marquis Xuanwu.

As for the military power in the hands of Marquis Xuanwu, it is indeed scary, but although he is in charge of this thing, he cannot tamper with it casually. If he tampered with it, he would not give the emperor face. Xiao Xiao wants to have fun.

On the other hand, the owner of Zhaode County has a lot of resources in her hands, and her network of connections is also very complicated. If she really wants to take action, many people will be more willing to give her face than to a marquis who has been guarding the border for many years and has not returned to the capital. .

This is the reason why Huo Junyao immediately attracts many people to the capital to follow him when he comes to attend the banquet.

With this appeal and influence, he has already gone far beyond Marquis Xuanwu.

But now Gao Changting has offended Huo Junyao miserably, and because of her relationship with King Qin, all these things will be blamed on King Qin, which will make King Qin's life in the capital even more difficult in the future.

After all, if Huo Junyao gave him face, many people would more or less look at the Buddha's face instead of the monk's face.

Now that things are like this, those who are standing opposite the Prince of Qin's Mansion don't have to worry about hurting Huo Junyao's face by disturbing the Prince of Qin.

It can be said that after Gao Changting made such a fuss, the relatively good life in Prince Qin's palace was ruined. "My lord, what should I do?"

Princess Qin, who had already received the news, hurriedly found King Qin.

Looking at King Qin's face at this time, he also looked very ugly. He really didn't expect Gao Changting to cause such trouble for him just after arriving in the capital.

"What else can we do? Gao Changting is the daughter of Marquis Xuanwu and has a deep connection with our Qin Prince's Palace, so naturally we cannot ignore her."

The King of Qin knew very well that as long as Marquis Xuanwu stayed for one more day, even if his Palace of Qin had a hard time, there would definitely be no danger of destruction. This was a real backing that could guarantee his life.

Although he also needed Huo Junyao's help, he knew very well that Huo Junyao would never interfere in his affairs with the Qi brothers.

It would be best if Marquis Xuanwu and Huo Junyao had the opportunity to stand up for him together, but under the current situation, he could only give up on winning over Huo Junyao. After all, Marquis Xuanwu was the real foundation of Prince Qin's palace.

"Okay, after today, you can choose some good gifts, and I will take Gao Changting to the Hot Spring Villa to apologize in person. I hope I can make some recovery."

Princess Qin was very dissatisfied, not only because Gao Changting had just come to the capital and provoked such a powerful person in Prince Qin's palace, but also because Gao Changting's purpose of coming here this time was somewhat impure.

Just now she saw that Gao Changting looked at King Qin with a different emotion. She was very familiar with this look. This guy might become her love rival.

How could Princess Qin be satisfied with a troublemaker who wanted to steal her man?
That is to say, behind Gao Changting is Xuanwuhou. Their Qin Palace must need Xuanwuhou's help, otherwise she would have been hammered to death by Gao Changting.

"Okay, I will go and choose the concubine myself later."

"However, you have to talk to the prince's tall sister. It's not okay according to her unruly and trouble-making character. This is the capital, not comparable to Xihu Pass. There are many people here that she can't afford to offend."

Hearing this, King Qin nodded to reassure her.

After Princess Qin left, King Qin's expression turned gloomy again, and he waved his hand to sweep everything on the table next to him to the ground.

What happened this time really made him angry and hateful. This Gao Changting was really a harmful person.

Royal study room.

Emperor Zhaowu also heard the news.

"Why did Gao Changting suddenly come to the capital? Was she invited by King Qin?"

Regarding Xuanwuhou, Emperor Zhaowu still felt somewhat complicated. On the one hand, this fierce general helped the Yu Dynasty stabilize the western border, which was a great contribution to the Yu Dynasty.

On the other hand, this person's thoughts were no longer on him, which gave him a headache.

A good minister, but not wholeheartedly loyal to himself, which made him, the emperor, feel a little regretful and more or less suspicious.

Especially this time, how long has King Qin been in the capital? Marquis Xuanwu knew the news and arranged for someone to come and contact him.

As for whether it was invited by King Qin, the people below did not have any feedback on this news.

"This is unclear, but according to the information Lao Nu has observed, King Qin has no contact with Xihu Pass."
