From Princess of the Cold Palace to Empress of Heaven

Hearing King Wu'an's words, everyone's eyes fell on the eldest prince, their eyes were full of envy, jealousy and hatred, wishing to replace the eldest prince.

This is a condensing pill!

The eldest prince's expression was very calm. After receiving the elixir, he just cupped his hands and said casually:

"Then thank you, my lord!"

Facing the eldest prince's staring eyes, King Wu'an did not show the slightest bit of impatience, but quickly ordered:

"Come here, invite the eldest prince to the table!"

Soon, attendants led the eldest prince to his seat.

The banquet continued, but the atmosphere still couldn't go smoothly.

There are always people's eyes, and from time to time they fall on the First Prince.

The original layout of the banquet was that the second prince and Princess Ziwei would stand side by side.

But after the eldest prince entered the arena forcefully, it suddenly became a three-legged confrontation.

Moreover, the shock brought by the eldest prince is even better than the first two.

After all, everyone knew that the First Prince was born with a crippled body and could not cultivate, but today he came back with a super talent, obviously intending to seize this opportunity and make a name for himself.

At the same time, people were also very curious about how the eldest prince managed to cultivate to such a degree by himself in the bitter cold and barren land.

Someone boldly stepped forward to toast the First Prince.

However, the Eldest Prince ignored those respectful descendants of the aristocratic families, ministers and ministers, he didn't even smile at all, exuding a kind of arrogance with his eyes above the top, he didn't even bother to chat with them.

The eldest prince's superior attitude made those people feel an invisible anger, but it was difficult to vent it.

Everyone couldn't help sighing secretly that the Eldest Prince had an arrogant personality. Even if such a person was extremely talented, this is the imperial city, not a place where someone with a strong talent can do whatever he wants.

However, many people secretly rejoiced, thinking in their hearts that if they could make friends with the First Prince, then their future official careers must have a limitless future.

As soon as this idea arose in everyone's minds, they were strangled to death by themselves.

Because, the son of the Wang family, the first family in the capital, returned home in defeat.

Countless people sighed secretly, if the eldest prince doesn't even give face to the royal family, then their inferior families will not be able to win the eyes of the eldest prince.

However, some people thought that the eldest prince was unable to express his attitude because of the public view, so they refused.

They still have the intention of wooing the eldest prince, but as for the purpose, it is unknown.

This scene fell in Xiao Minghuang's eyes, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she didn't understand what the eldest prince's attitude was.

If you choose to return at this time, if you say that you have no intention of being on the throne, no one will believe it.

If he wanted to seize the throne, why would the First Prince refuse when so many families wanted to make friends with him?

Could it be to hide his ambition from her and the second prince?

But if that's the case, why did Cai just appear on stage in such a domineering manner?

Is not this contradictory?

However, thinking of the First Prince's identity as a time traveler, Xiao Minghuang felt relieved again.

If the First Prince was transmigrated in the near future, then it is only natural for him to behave inappropriately.

After all, some naive time travelers, after time travel, look at others like they look at NPCs in the game, wishing to grow their eyes to the top of the sky.

"With such a heart, nothing to worry about!"

112. Invitation to war, marriage

on the high platform.

King Wu An frowned.

When he first met the First Prince, he was calm and introverted, humble and polite.

But this time when we met again, I felt that he was acting out of order, with a kind of arrogance regardless of his status, and with unrealistic arrogance, which was really disappointing.

At the beginning, he valued the talent of the great prince, thinking that he had been dormant for nearly 20 years, intending to become a blockbuster, but he did not expect...

The performance before and after is like two different people!

Before that, he even planned to examine the eldest prince's character. If his virtues were acceptable, coupled with such outstanding talent, then he would be his grandson-in-law.

but.

Right now, it seems that it was a wrong decision to let the eldest prince attend the banquet.

A look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"It seems... Xiu'er's marriage needs to be planned differently."

King Wu An pondered in his heart, his gaze swept across the audience, focusing on the princes for a moment.

Apart from being ordered by Emperor Xia to bridge the conflict between the emperor's heirs, this banquet also had his own considerations.

That is to help his granddaughter Xu Xiuer choose a reliable husband-in-law.

At first, he planned to marry Xiu'er to the second prince.

However, today's time, place and people are not on the side of the second prince.

If Xiu'er is married to the second prince again, it will undoubtedly push her into the pit of fire.

While thinking, his eyes fell on Xiao Minghuang.

"If Princess Ziwei didn't have a marriage contract, she and Xiu'er would be a good match..."

King Wu An thought in his heart, his eyes turned, and he glanced at the remaining princes.

Among the remaining princes, the third and fourth princes were too mediocre to be worthy of his granddaughter.

The fifth prince, who travels abroad all year round, is open and aboveboard, loyal, loves to befriend knights, and has never heard of a woman around him.

It may be suitable for such a person to be a brother and friend, but it may not be appropriate to be a husband-in-law.

The sixth prince loves swords, and has nothing else to do except practicing swords all day long.The fifth prince at least had frequent contacts with a group of brothers and friends, but the sixth prince was a complete lone swordsman.

"These two are too withdrawn. If Xiu'er marries any of them, she might be left out in the cold. It doesn't seem like a good match..."

Thinking of this, King Wu An sighed softly, and turned his gaze back to Xiao Minghuang.

Sitting upright behind the table, Xiao Minghuang was dressed in a luxurious and elegant bright yellow dress. She had a noble temperament, elegant manners, and a heroic appearance, just like a blooming national beauty peony, and her every move was graceful.

King Wu'an could tell that although Princess Ziwei was a girl with a very soft and beautiful appearance, she faintly exuded a natural domineering aura.

This inexplicable charm, regardless of men and women, will be attracted by her.

Thinking of this, King Wu An couldn't help sighing, he could foresee that if his granddaughter saw Princess Ziwei, she would definitely have a good impression of her.

He couldn't help feeling a little regretful, if Princess Ziwei hadn't married Miss Lin of Beiyang City, he would propose marriage to Princess Ziwei even if he pulled his old face.

"Xiu'er's marriage must be settled as soon as possible. If everything is settled after the competition, it will be meaningless."

King Wu'an knew in his heart that when the princes did not decide the winner, his position was particularly critical. Once the winner was decided, the significance of wooing him would be greatly reduced.

Therefore, if it really comes to the point where there is no choice...

It was about this time.

The second prince, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly stood up. He coughed lightly, attracting the attention of everyone present.

"Everyone, today we seven brothers gather together. This is a grand event that has not been seen in more than ten years. If we don't do something meaningful, wouldn't it be a waste of your majesty and King Wu'an's efforts?"

The second prince's voice was neither high nor low, and seemed as gentle as jade. Hearing it, one couldn't feel the intention of rejecting it.

Hear this.

The fourth prince seemed to have received the imperial edict, and immediately echoed:

"Second brother is right! This is a rare and good opportunity. If you have any suggestions, second brother, please let us know. We will definitely agree!"

This statement came out.

Everyone present immediately understood the fourth prince's position. Seeing that the situation was not good, he was already planning to fall to the second prince.

Although King Wu'an condescended and knelt down to Princess Ziwei just now, it should be just a play on the occasion.

After all, King Wu'an is the second prince's uncle, so he has no reason to join the sect of an outsider, Princess Ziwei.

The rest of the princes had different expressions.

The Fifth Prince was whispering to the burly man beside him.

The sixth prince pressed the sword with both hands, closed his eyes and meditated.

The third prince held the wine glass tightly in his hand and looked ahead, but the divine light kept wandering between the second prince and Princess Ziwei.

The First Prince had already been drunk to the brim, and lay down on the table, unconscious.

As for Xiao Minghuang, she had an interesting expression, quietly watching how the second prince wanted to perform.

The second prince glanced at the audience, smiled lightly and said:

"Fourth brother is too polite. In this case, the seven of us, brothers and sisters, might as well show off our strengths and have a competition. It's a warm-up for the big competition, how about it?"

Hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed.

Everyone knows that the royal competition is for the selection of the crown prince. For such an important event, where does it need any warm-up?

Moreover, once there is a competition, do you want to show your strength?

Dabi is close, no one wants to expose their strength in advance.

as predicted.

Hearing this, even the Fourth Prince showed embarrassment.

but.

He just planned to vote for the second prince, so he must not be stage fright at this time.

The Fourth Prince bit the bullet and explained:

"Yes, yes! Our brothers and sisters often don't get together, today is just a discussion, you don't have to go all out, just try your hand at it, just enjoy yourself!"

talking room.

In a blink of an eye, he ran to the center of the hall, a long sword emerged in his hand, cut out a sword flower, scanned the princes, and finally his eyes rested on Xiao Minghuang.

"Everyone, who would like to compete with me?"

Seeing this scene, the second prince nodded secretly, and said in his heart: "The fourth brother is a talent, and he can be cultivated."

Sensing the provocative gaze projected by the fourth prince, Xiao Minghuang drew a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.

She could see that the fourth prince was full of fighting spirit and wanted to challenge her.

but.

What reason does she have to accept this meaningless competition?

at this point.

The second prince knew very well.

After the matter of the Seventh Prince and the Wanbao Pavilion, he discovered that Xiao Minghuang was a person who had nothing to gain.

If she can't make her feel profitable, she won't be able to attract Xiao Minghuang.

It was even difficult to provoke her.

Therefore, if you want to catch big fish, you must put heavy bait!

The next moment, his eyes turned, and Wu An Wang said via voice transmission:

"Uncle, it's your turn!"

Hearing this, King Wu An nodded and said loudly:

"Since your highnesses want to compete and learn from each other, how can I not help the old man?"
