Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1020 The big fool was so happy that he couldn’t smile from ear to ear

Tai Chi Hall is beautifully decorated, but not exhaustingly luxurious.

Hundreds of candles were burning on several silver candlesticks as tall as people.

The candlelight illuminated the interior of the hall as bright as day, and there was almost no big difference from the sky outside the hall.

All the furnishings and objects in the house are fully displayed.

A dozen musicians knelt in the corner, and with Emperor Yuan Zhen's order, the sound of silk and bamboo music sounded.

There are dancers and singers walking in with gentle steps.

Gorgeous neon clothes, soft figure.

A well-rehearsed dance.

In just a moment, the entire Tai Chi Hall was a scene of singing and dancing.

Yuanwu sat upright, admiring the dance in front of him.

Xiao Chongyuan held the wine glass and sat leisurely.

Bai Mingwei sat under the Queen Mother, although his eyes fell on the dancing girl.

But it was obvious that her thoughts were not here.

After the dance, Yuan Wu was the first to applaud.

The ministers also laughed, and the hall was filled with laughter and the atmosphere was harmonious.

When Emperor Yuan Zhen saw this, he also showed that kind smile that seemed to be exclusive to him.

At this time, Yuan Wu said: "It is said that a hero has a hard time with beauty. No wonder my young man from the grassland has always been obsessed with the Dongling woman. Who can resist this tenderness around his fingers?"

Emperor Yuan Zhen responded to him: "As long as Master Yuan likes it."

Yuan Xun looked at Xiao Chongyuan meaningfully: "It's a pity that the regent of Western Chu has an eye disease and cannot enjoy the dance to his fullest."

Xiao Chongyuan said quietly: "I am not interested in other women, but just now I heard that you praised these actors and dancers. Why don't you ask Emperor Dongling to reward you with them?"

Yuan Wu smiled softly: "The regent is joking. I have an engagement, so I can't accept it happily."

Xiao Chongyuan ignored him and faced Emperor Yuan Zhen, and spoke slowly: "There are beauties in Dongling, and I also have them in Western Chu, but my dance in Western Chu also has a unique flavor."

"When I visit Dongling this time, I have selected some beauties as usual. Why don't I also ask them to perform. If there is anyone here who likes them, I will give them to you."

Bai Mingwei sat quietly, his face calm and calm.

The ministers bowed their heads and made no statement.

Generally, beauties are presented to the emperor in this situation.

If the emperor is happy, he will reward these beauties to his ministers.

With only the emperor's grace, how could they have a chance to directly choose him?
Emperor Yuan Zhen had no interest in these beauties.

People who donate from foreign countries must not put them beside their pillows. This is tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house.

However, it is difficult to refuse the hospitality sent by other countries, so he will naturally accept it symbolically.

Obviously, Yuan Wu also has his thoughts.

Before Emperor Yuan Zhen could speak, he followed Xiao Chongyuan's words and said: "The beauty of Dongling women lies in their graceful and gentle temperament, the beauty of Western Chu women lies in their physical appearance, but I, the beauty of Beiyan, lie in my strong temper!"

"Just look at Dongling and Xichu's. Why not look at our Beiyan's? Maybe you will love this girl who looks like a strong drink even more."

Xiao Chongyuan smiled and said: "It seems that everyone here is blessed."

Emperor Yuan Zhen's eyes fell on Bai Mingwei.

All the gold, silver and jewelry carried by the envoys are recorded in the records.

This time the situation is special, the beauties all sent it from behind without any detailed inspection.

Beiyan and Xichu are rushing to offer beauties one by one, which makes people suspicious.

Bai Mingwei happened to be in charge of welcoming the envoy, so he naturally wanted to see what Bai Mingwei said.

However, Bai Mingwei still lowered his head and turned a blind eye to his gaze.

This Ministry of Etiquette is not a freeloader. It’s not her turn to explain the two countries’ presentation of beauties?

Emperor Yuan Zhen couldn't get a response from Bai Mingwei, and it was hard to keep the two sides indifferent.

So he responded with a smile: "The envoys of the two countries are interested."

Xiao Chongyuan remained silent, but Yuan Wu's eyes fell on Qin Fengye casually.

Then, he spoke: "Your Majesty Dongling, it would be monotonous to just watch the beauties. After enjoying the dance music, you should also do some other shows."

"As I said just now, I, Beiyan, have prepared a program, but it's not good for us to enjoy it alone. We also need the cooperation of Dongling and Xichu."

Before Emperor Yuanzhen could speak, Qin Fengye took the initiative to ask: "Oh? I wonder what program Beiyan has prepared this time?" He asked, but there was actually no problem.

In this case, Emperor Yuan Zhen only needed to hold the place in check.

The rest of the time, it is up to the minister to do the talking.

So he was right to speak.

It's just that Emperor Yuan Zhen was so embarrassed that he didn't even open his mouth.

Now I am busy responding to Yuan Wu. The weirdness in this can be tasted without looking at it.

Everyone could tell that there was something fishy inside.

But Yuan Wu doesn't care what others think of Qin Fengye.

All he wants is to achieve his goal: "I have long heard that Dongling people like to play civil and military fights during gatherings, and do as the Romans do. I, Beiyan, have also prepared warriors and scribes this time. I want to challenge the masters of Dongling and Xichu." and scribes.”

Xiao Chongyuan did not express his position.

Emperor Yuan Zhen agreed: "If the envoy wants to play, we can accompany him."

He thought that Dongling was not only full of talents, but it had Song Chengzhang in literature and Bai Mingwei in martial arts.

With just a few envoys in Northern Yan, what kind of climate could they achieve?
Just play with him to show your host's etiquette and easy-going nature.

Song Chengzhang, who had been silent all this time, felt something was wrong and was about to speak, but Bai Mingwei quietly pulled his sleeve.

Song Chengzhang was speechless.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Wu said again: "Emperor Dongling is really a cheerful person. Since His Majesty is so cheerful, I, Beiyan, should also let Dongling enjoy himself."

"After the singing and dancing, representatives from Dongling and Xichu will be randomly selected to compete with my representative from Beiyan."

"If Beiyan loses, he will no longer care about the ownership of Yuecheng, and will end the war with Dongling from now on, and will also agree to a condition for the winner."

"If Dongling loses, Yuecheng will be used as the dowry for General Zhenbei. When General Zhenbei marries Beiyan, he will enter Beiyan's territory again."

Can there be such a good thing?
Emperor Yuan Zhen immediately agreed: "Okay! This matter is settled!"

Xiao Chongyuan sneered.

Bai Mingwei showed an unexpected look.

Only the Queen Mother could not conceal her disappointment.

Yes, this is a trap.

Yuan Wu's proposal was not well-intentioned, and it was not as good as he said on the surface.

At first glance, it seemed that Dongling had taken advantage.

But if you taste it carefully, you will find that it is completely aimed at Emperor Yuan Zhen's thoughts.

If Dongling wins and Beiyan stops asking about Yuecheng's affairs, there won't be any problems in the first half.

However, in the second half, Beiyan will agree to a condition for the winner.

If Dongling sends Bai Mingwei to compete, wouldn't it give Bai Mingwei the opportunity to cancel the marriage with Beiyan?

According to Emperor Yuan Zhen's temperament, he would never send Bai Mingwei to compete.

He didn't care much whether Yuecheng belonged to Dongling.

But Bai Mingwei and the Bai family must die, which has always been his worry.

Therefore, he most likely sent Bai Yu to fight in the hope that he would be mistakenly killed by the Beiyan people during the competition.

This would kill a member of the Bai family, and Bai Mingwei's decision to get married would not change in any way.

If he really does this, it will only chill Bai Mingwei's heart.

At that time, either Bai Mingwei will marry Bei Yan and become Bei Yan's sharp edge, or he will rebel on the spot and stab him, Emperor Yuan Zhen.

Even if Yuan Wu's plan fails, let Dongling win.

What Emperor Yuan Zhen did was chilling enough.

Therefore, Yuan Wu's ultimate goal is to instigate Bai Mingwei.

Force Bai Mingwei to break with Dongling.

As for why he threatened Qin Fengye just now, I'm afraid it was also so that Qin Fengye could further slander him later when Emperor Yuan Zhen selected his representatives.

Bai Mingwei had already figured out the key to this.

As for why the Queen Mother showed such a look, it was all because she had tasted it.

It's a pity that the idiot Emperor Yuan Zhen thought that Bei Yan was giving him a big gift, so he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear.
