Chapter 382 (1/2)

Chu Zongge casually drank a mouthful of tea. The ministers in the study watched him slowly swallow the tea. Everyone's heart almost mentioned to his throat. After he moistened his throat. Swept the audience with cold eyes. He said dumbly, ”is there any moth tossing about Xirong? Why are you all here?”

Several people's eyes touched several times in the air, and everyone knew it. He just didn't know how to speak to the emperor. General Shen was reminded by two old ministers with eyes. He took a breath. He stepped forward and arched his hands and said, ”the envoys from Xirong are about to arrive. They will arrive in Kyoto in about three or four days.”

”I've known this for a long time. I need you to remind me,” Chu Zongge narrowed his eyes dangerously. ”This is not what you want to tell me. I'm afraid there are more than envoys from Xirong. Is there anything else?”

Forced by his cold eyes, general Shen sweated cold sweat on his forehead, ”emperor. In fact, the envoy came with the princess. We didn't tell us this before. We just know now.”

Chu Zongge frowned, ”princess? Which princess is it?” he only knew the prince of Xirong. The princess has no impression.

”It's Princess Gu, the eldest princess of emperor Xirong. It's the daughter of the former crown princess, who was posthumously crowned Queen Chungui Yixiao.”

Chu Zongge was stunned and reacted in an instant. When he was the second prince, his brother, now the emperor, was the prince. His beloved is the crown princess who grew up with him. However, the crown princess was weak and died before he inherited the great unification. Only one princess was left to him. Later, when he succeeded to the throne, he pursued the beloved queen Chungui Yixiao to show his noble status, and the princess Gu she left became the Pearl of the emperor.

Chu Zongge pursed his lips, meditated for a while and said, ”this princess Gu is not the envoy sent by Xirong. How did Xirong let a princess become an envoy of the state of Qin? If I remember correctly, the princess is not 16 years old.”

The ministers at the bottom looked at each other and showed extremely embarrassed faces. General Shen cleared his throat and said, ”emperor, the princess is seventeen years old. The seventeen year old celebration has just been held in spring.”

Chu Zongge looked at his forbearing expression, and his face became dignified. ”Emperor Xirong asked a princess to come to the state of Qin. Does he want her to make peace with me?”

General Shen and other ministers knelt on the ground as if they were interlinked. An old minister trembled and said, ”the emperor Xirong really wanted Princess Gu to marry the state of Qin. He has sent a princess to the state of Qi, the daughter of the prince, and later became the queen of the emperor of Qi.”

”It's a joke. The emperor of Qi didn't even have nine years old. Where can he be a queen?” Chu Zongge's eyes were covered with a thin layer of ice. ”So I listen to Xirong's meaning. Does the noble princess Gu want to be a queen next to me?”

General Shen said in a low voice, ”it's just wishful thinking. Princess Gu has been spoiled since she came here. How can she compare with the empress who came from the eldest lady of the prime minister's house? His ambition is really too big.”

Chu Zongge's eyes flashed a trace of cruelty. He rubbed his eyebrows distractedly. ”I really underestimated Xirong. I really thought I came to negotiate terms. I actually gave me such a big gift.”

When Princess Gu was born, as a little uncle, he also looked at her and held her personally. With snow-white skin and green eyes, he was indeed a little girl carved with powder and jade. He didn't see many times until he died under her father's hands.

Chu Zongge sighed faintly, ”it's better to know earlier than to wait until they come. Go down first. I'll think about how to deal with this matter. I won't let xirongye succeed. Just rest assured.”

The ministers looked at each other and thought that there was no other effective way except to hand it over to the emperor. They had to bow down and leave first.

Liu Yuan sighed faintly after applying the needle, ”does the emperor mean that he won't come to see you in the future?”

Xue ronghua lowered his eyelids, put down his sleeve and said secretly, ”he said he would come to see me, but he won't approach you again. He can take his time after I'm ready.”

”After that?” Liu Yuan raised his eyebrows unnaturally. ”I don't know when to wait. Can the emperor hold back at his vigorous age? He shouldn't be looking for another woman. You should be careful that the position of the harem is not guaranteed.”

”There's nothing to be careful about. I always believe in him. He won't marry other women. Besides, if my body recovers a little, we can be together again. There's no need to worry.”

Liu Yuan left his mouth and whispered, ”then you really want to be open. I thought you were really separated. It would be a pity.”
