Chapter 1081
Du Fuya stared at Tao Zhen, as if he was meeting her for the first time.

After being silent for a long time, she sighed: "I asked you to come today because I actually wanted to take a good look at you. After all, you are my daughter."

Tao Zhen wanted to laugh: "I know who you are now. There is no need for us to pretend to be close to each other as mother and daughter."

Du Fuya seemed to be stunned and speechless, and his beautiful and plain face rarely showed a hint of anger.

But Tao Zhen didn't care.

The purpose of her trip has been achieved.

As for why Du Fuya entered the palace of Chu State, it was either because he could not forget his old love with King Qi, or he had other purposes. Tao Zhen had no idea, and she was not interested.

Du Fuya didn't say anything in the end. Not long after Tao Zhen left, Yuehua Temple caught fire, and the temple was reduced to ashes. The only survivors were those who were sent out to work during the day.

The rest of the people, including those who had caused Du Fuya trouble that day, all died.

Tao Zhen knew that this was Du Fuya's method. She had already thought of a way out. Maybe he really just reminded her not to investigate that organization that day, or maybe he just wanted to take a look at her.

It doesn't matter, we probably won't meet again in the future.

As for what she and Du Yunjian wanted to do, Tao Zhen didn't want to know and wasn't interested.

Prince Qi's Mansion has also been quiet, and Li Mingzhu has never looked for her again.

In a blink of an eye, the day of congratulations came. The emperor held a banquet in the palace, and all the ministers and envoys entered the palace.

Tao Zhen didn't want to go, but Li Xiuyi specially asked someone to reserve a place for her and Pei Zhan.

Tao Zhen mingled among the Chu people and knew few of them.

When Li Mingzhu saw her, she just smiled and nodded, without the previous warmth, showing the plastic sisterhood to the fullest.

Prince Qi was still smiling and chatting with everyone, because Concubine Shu was dead and no one was talking about her appearance.

Tao Zhen also saw King Qi, who was an extremely handsome man, handsome and elegant, like a fine white jade statue. He was sitting in his seat, not talking to anyone, and seemed to be thinking about something.

It is worth mentioning that Zeng Yan resigned from office after Mrs. Zeng's death and disappeared later.

Tao Zhen felt that the entire banquet was deserted, and everyone seemed to have some unknown thoughts.

Li Xiuyi never got married, had no queen, not even concubines, and had no women in the harem. The ones left by the old emperor either lived in remote places or went to Yu Yuehua Temple.

Coupled with the fact that the old emperor had few heirs, the entire banquet seemed a little deserted.

Fortunately, Xiao Yan is here, and he is sitting at the head of the emperor. His presence makes everyone feel more at ease.

There was nothing unusual about the banquet. Tao Zhen was bored and playing with his fingers uncomfortably until the Dashun envoy came over. Huo Xing gave a big gift on behalf of the Dashun emperor.

Li Xiuyi smiled and said: "Thank you very much for Emperor Yan's kindness. I have seen Emperor Yan's sincerity, and I will return a great gift to Emperor Yan."

After Huo Xing retired, it was Yan Junxi. Ironically, although Yan Junxi represented the Qi State, he himself was of the serious Dashun royal family.

Then there was singing and dancing. Tao Zhen yawned and she fell asleep during the second half.

Everyone also relaxed, and no one paid attention to the palace maid who came to pour wine.

"Dangdang!"

The sudden sound startled everyone who was drowsy.

The unprepared assassination caused chaos in the entire hall. Several assassins rushed towards the emperor desperately, but only one or two of the royal family's secret guards came out, and the rest were squeezed by the crowd and couldn't pass.
