Wei Wuhou

Chapter 242

(I was really exhausted after a busy day yesterday, and I finally caught up with this chapter today!)
On January 29, the ninth year of Zhou Wangzhao, the weather was fine and cloudless.

At this time, in the hinterland of the Central Plains, the snow and ice had cleared away, and the inner garden outside the city of Shangluo was densely covered with banners, and the banners of the princes from all walks of life were waving in the wind.

In the days when the first month was about to end, the emperor specially issued an edict to hold a meeting of the princes in the inner court to demonstrate riding and shooting.

Inner Garden is a large forest enclosed by the royal family. As a special hunting place for the royal family, idlers are not allowed to enter.

The flags of the princes from all walks of life were flying on both sides of the king's flag at this time, and the prosperity displayed made the emperor Ji Zhao temporarily forget the situation of his family and country, as if he had returned to the glory of the Great Zhou a hundred years ago.

"Your Majesty, the envoys of Chu State have arrived just now, but Wei State has not yet arrived..."

At the same time, the servant's voice was carefully reported, and the smile on Ji Zhao's face immediately froze.

It's the hateful Wei people again... Ji Zhao's face turned cold, and his anger gradually grew.

"The Chu people are only here now, a full moment later than the time I set, and they are not good people..." Ji Zhao said silently in his heart at the same time.

He has become numb to Wei people's negligence, but now Chu people are also doing this outright. If they don't restrain themselves, I'm afraid there will be more people who follow suit in the future.

"Don't you two countries claim to be big countries? I will let you fight hard." Ji Zhao whispered.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was not as furious as usual, the servant standing beside him was a little surprised.

Emperor Ji Zhao picked up the teacup on the royal case and said calmly, "Go down!"

"Yes..." After the servant bowed deeply, he asked the emperor to walk out.

At this time, the voice of Emperor Ji Zhao sounded from the side again, causing the servant to bend down a little more.

"Everyone will come together later, let the envoys of all countries come to have an audience..."

"Yes……"

After the servant walked away, resentment became apparent in Ji Zhao's eyes. No one in his position could bear such humiliation.

Under the banner of other princes, the countries that have nothing to do with this discussion are indifferent.

In this beautiful spring, they were full of joy, as if they really came here for the pleasure of hunting.

"My lord, it's really rare to see Shangluo this time!" Under the banner of the Kingdom of Shu, a member of the mission said with emotion.

The Shu envoy sneered, but he didn't say anything. As a traveler who often travels among various countries, he can see much more clearly than the new rookie beside him.

From the time that little overlord of the Wei Kingdom entered Shangluo, the situation was turbulent and out of control, but even the joint suppression of Qi, Chu, Wu and Qin still couldn't suppress his edge.

In the meantime, the son even drove Chen Guojun and his ministers out of the building, and his behavior shocked even the envoys of Shu.

Although he also looked down on Chen Guo's office, they were all weak countries after all, and what happened to Chen Guo inevitably made him sad.

But now, the young master of the Wei Kingdom has not yet appeared, so I don't know what troubles are going to happen.

But on the other hand, the Kingdom of Shu still has to thank the Wei people for their hard work. If they hadn't held the power of Qin and Chu, the Kingdom of Shu, which is sandwiched between the two great powers, would be as relaxed as it is today.

"The people of Wei... haven't arrived yet!" the envoy of Shu suddenly said.

The officer on one side was stunned for a moment, and after looking around, he nodded and said: "My lord, that is indeed the case!"

The Shu envoy nodded, knowing that there was another big drama going on today.

The envoy of Shu looked at the emperor's big banner again. He wanted to know what the emperor was thinking now.

Then, his eyes turned to the avenue outside the inner garden, waiting for Wei Wuji's arrival.

In fact, except for the few major foreign countries that have real interests in this matter, many people have the same thoughts as the Shu envoy, and they are all waiting to see a good show.

But they waited and waited, and after all, they didn't see the Wei character flag they imagined, but they saw a sound of warblers and swallows in the distance.

…………

"Why did you stop again?" A girl's scolding voice came from inside the carriage.

As soon as this question was asked, the guards of the royal court rushed to the side of the carriage, and explained respectfully: "Princesses, the wooden bridge leading to the inner garden is broken for some reason..."

Sure enough, the originally solid wooden bridge broke for some reason, which forced a group of carriages on the other side of the river to stop.

Among them, the curtain of the leading carriage was pulled open, revealing a beautiful face, but the girl's face was full of anger.

"I've been late for this hunting meeting in Neiyuan, and now the bridge is broken, what should I do?" The girl was very dissatisfied.

As soon as she said this, there was a sad voice in the car behind: "Oh, I've been late for such a long time, my father will definitely blame me!"

They are the princesses of the Zhou family, and the royal family naturally has high demands on them. They are firmly bound by the rules and regulations that other countries do not follow.

"Princess, don't worry, I'll find a solution now!" The young general who looked like the commander of the guards comforted him, and he really couldn't figure out how the bridge would break when it was so good.

There is no way, these princesses can only wait.

Since there was nothing left and right, two or three princesses got off the carriage with the support of their maidservants.

At the same time, the witty servant came out from the back of his princess's carriage and took out some pillars.

"It's all the fault of that little bastard, he fumbled for a long time before rushing here, which made our sisters late!" As soon as it was finished, a princess in orange clothes complained.

This remark immediately attracted a person beside him to agree: "That's right, I don't know what my father thinks, and let this little bitch participate in the big hunting in the inner garden."

Seeing the two sisters in front of her insulting her sisters so much, the princess said in a low voice just for the first time: "Okay, after all, Wanyue is the daughter of the father and the king. Don't call me little sluts all the time."

After being trained like this, one of the princesses kept her mouth shut, acting like a good baby.

But the orange-clothed princess didn't care, and only heard her say: "Second sister, Ji Wanyue was born of a slut, so she is naturally a little slut..."

As soon as he said this, he saw Ji Wanyue coming out of the carriage on one side, holding a bamboo thing in his hand, which looked like a cup.

Today's Ji Wanyue has shed the simplicity of the past and put on a brocade dress, which looks extraordinarily beautiful.

What is particularly eye-catching is that on top of Ji Wanyue's beautiful bun, there is also a dazzling golden phoenix hairpin.

The girl in orange clothes didn't panic when she scolded someone and was caught by the client, because her mother taught her since she was a child, she thought from the bottom of her heart that the other party was a little slut with a low life.

"Ji Biyue, don't go too far..." Ji Wanyue scolded angrily, she was just thirsty and wanted to get some water, but met her childhood enemy who insulted herself and her mother.

"Uh... who am I supposed to be, so it's the little bitch who came..." Ji Biyue, the orange-clothed girl, sneered.

"You caused everyone to overstay and be scolded by the king, do you deserve this crime?" Ji Biyue asked.

This made Ji Wanyue unable to refute. She lived some distance away from the palace, and she didn't have a carriage to travel, and there was a curfew at night, so how could she arrive at the palace on time.

Seeing that Ji Wanyue was silent, Ji Biyue had a triumphant smile on her face. Nothing could make her happier than this.

But at this time, she saw the golden hairpin on Ji Wanyue's bun, and a vicious thought came to her at the same time.
