The daughter of the emperor is reborn, and she can't escape from offending the emperor's u

Chapter 78: Foreign Marriage
There are foreigners attending today's palace banquet, and they sit below the emperor and the princes.

They were Mongolian envoys. Their clothes were different from those of the people in the capital. They wore fur coats, were tall and strong, and spoke in a very loud voice.

His Mandarin was not standard and had a strange accent. He looked to be about 25 or 26 years old, with his hair loose and draped over his shoulders.

Mu Qingqing couldn't help but take another look. It was the first time she saw a foreigner.

When I looked over, I suddenly saw the other person's gaze looking back at me, as if staring at prey.

Mu Qingqing frowned slightly and turned back calmly.

The other party knew my father. After all, my father was the god of war. People from other countries were also very familiar with him, and had even fought against him.

Mu Qingqing was still wearing red. Anyway, the whole capital knew that she liked red, and it had become her signature outfit.

No one requires a certain kind of clothing to be worn at a palace banquet, as long as the officials do not dress randomly.

At just sixteen years old, she stood out among the other girls, and was confident and outspoken. Many boys were looking at her.

Mu Qingqing seemed not to notice the gazes of the crowd. She sat aside and chatted and laughed with her elder and second sisters-in-law. She was not affected at all and did not have the shyness of other girls.

The music was melodious and the dancers' postures were graceful, but few people really appreciated it.

As the wine glasses clink, people are trying to build their network of relationships.

Suddenly, the foreigner stood up and saluted His Majesty in broken Chinese.

"Your Majesty, the Meng people wish to maintain a long-lasting friendship with the Chu State and offer beautiful women and countless gold and silver as tribute every year."

His Majesty laughed heartily. This was the country he governed. Foreign nations were actively showing goodwill. "Haha, good. The borders have been at war for years, and the people are suffering. It would be best if the wars stopped."

He swept his eyes over everyone with a smug look, and those who loved to flatter him immediately began to do so.

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful. Under your leadership, the country is at peace!"

……

Your Majesty enjoys the flattery of the crowd very much, and feels proud of it. When people get older, they like others to praise them.

After the noise, the foreigner said, "Your Majesty, the Meng people hope to form a marriage alliance with the Chu State and hope to marry someone!"

The air around them suddenly became quiet, and the young ladies from official families present looked at their parents in panic.

They don't want to marry to Outer Mongolia, where they won't be able to come back and see their parents. Also, they heard that men in Outer Mongolia are cruel and will beat and scold their wives at any time. If they marry there, will anything good happen to them?

Mu Qingqing frowned and suddenly had a bad feeling.

The foreigner ignored the whispers below and suddenly raised his hand and pointed, "This prince wants to marry the eldest daughter of the Qian Mu family, Mu Qingqing!"

The whole place was silent. General Mu stared at me with his eyes wide open and slammed the table. "Okay, you defeated generals actually want to marry my daughter. Impossible!"

General Mu was the first to disagree. It was a joke. How could it be possible to let his daughter marry outside the country, or even to a foreign country?

How could they bear to let their spoiled child suffer?
Even the three young masters of the Mu Mansion glared at the Meng people.

Letting my younger sister exchange for peace between the two countries is wishful thinking.

His Majesty did not say anything, but thought seriously. If he could sacrifice Mu Qingqing in exchange for decades of peace, it would be a good deal.

General Mu glared at the emperor hatefully. If the emperor agreed, he would probably jump up and scold him immediately.

"Oh!"

Suddenly, a light sound was heard. Who was it? Making a sound at this time? Did they not want to live? They shifted their sight and met the slightly red eyes. Everyone trembled. How could they forget this ancestor?
King Han was shivering all over, his eyes fixed on the foreign prince.

The prince suddenly felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. They had never been afraid of anyone from the foreign countries, and they even respected General Mu more than they were afraid of him.

But the person in front of him, although also a god of war, is more of a god of killing. He has killed countless enemies on the battlefield. It is rumored that when King Han killed enemies, his eyes turned red, like a demon from hell.

He once scared away an army of 50,000 by himself.

The foreigner's pupils shrank slightly, and a hint of retreat emerged in his heart. Although his expression did not change, his stiff body showed that he was afraid.

King Han sneered, "Change it!"

His tone was unusually calm, like an unruffled pond. He did not say no, but changed it.

The Mongolian prince was silent for a moment, then he bowed to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I'd better change someone. General Mu loves his daughter very much, which is very touching. As for the candidate, as long as she is a beautiful woman... I don't care."

He was a coward. He was seeking peace. He didn't want to bring trouble to the country by bringing down the killer King Han.

His Majesty's mouth twitched slightly. He thought the other party was so arrogant, but it turned out that he was scared by King Han and changed his mind?
His Majesty's eyes swept over Prince Han and Mu Qingqing. One had a calm expression, while the other hadn't said a word from beginning to end, neither humble nor arrogant.

His Majesty sighed. If his son was like King Han… forget it. If he was really like King Han, he would have to worry even more about rebellion.

He knew Prince Han's character. As long as everything went as he wished, he didn't care about the throne.

"Okay, in that case, you can take a good look these few days. If you like any girl, I will make the decision for you."

His Majesty made a promise, and while the Mu family breathed a sigh of relief, the other officials' girls were all nervous.

His eyes were like knives stabbing into Mu Qingqing, but he didn't care at all.

After this incident, the atmosphere became a little colder and few girls were willing to come forward to perform for fear of being picked by someone else.

In the end, it was His Majesty who called the roll, and in the tense situation, many people made mistakes.

No matter how calm she was in her heart and how peaceful she looked on the surface, her heart was in her throat. She didn't want to marry someone else, or marry someone she didn't like and never see her parents again in her life.

Unexpectedly, such a thing was easily solved by King Han.

Mu Qingqing looked at King Han with her beautiful eyes. The other party looked at her. Mu Qingqing felt shy and quickly looked away.

Then she glared at him again, asking him to calm down.

King Han took a sip of wine with a smile. It seemed that he had to hurry up. He was sixteen years old this year and it was time to get engaged. He must not let anyone snatch her away from him.

Starting from the second day, there was a sudden wave of engagement and marriage enthusiasm in the capital, and many girls got married in a short period of time.

There was still room for selection before, but now people have lowered their requirements.

All the wedding dresses in the clothing shop were sold out in a short time.

During the tense preparations for the wedding, many people hated Mu Qingqing. If she agreed to marry, would this not be the case? Wouldn't it be better to sacrifice Mu Qingqing and save them from the water and fire?
They also want to be blind.

The Mu family was the most relaxed. After all, Prince Han personally protected Mu Qingqing, His Majesty did not object, and even the foreign princes gave up voluntarily, so Mu Qingqing had nothing to worry about.

But this incident served as a wake-up call to the Mu family. It was time to put Mu Qingqing's marriage on the agenda. If something like this happened again, His Majesty would inevitably have a headache. What would he do about Mu Qingqing's engagement?
The Mu family's threshold is high, and ordinary people simply cannot consider it, while normal officials and families are afraid of the royal family.

Even if I want to get married in the short term, there is no way.
