A guard hurried in and knelt on one knee.
Emperor Dewu raised his eyebrows. The prince of Xiliang Kingdom actually came to visit in person?
You know, in the past, when it came to the birthday banquets of the princes, each country would just send people to deliver some gifts as a token of their appreciation.
At most, they would send an envoy.
No prince has ever been sent here.
"Please ask them to come in."
Emperor Dewu spoke, and the guard replied "Yes!" and hurried out to report.
Soon, the Prince of Xiliang and his entourage walked in. Seeing so many people, the Prince of Xiliang was stunned for a moment. Wasn’t it just a little princess’s first birthday party?
Why so many people coming?
Is it necessary to make such a big scene?
Yuchi Xi looked up and saw that in the Xiliang Kingdom's team, walking in front was a young man who looked to be about sixteen years old.
Her hair was loose, with two braids tied around her ears and the ends of her hair tied with ribbons. She wore a gold necklace around her neck, which was decorated with some colorful diamonds.
Yuchi Xi:!!! It’s a gold necklace! You can tell you’re rich by looking at it!
His shirt was slightly open, revealing his wheat-colored abdominal muscles. The girls from wealthy families standing beside him blushed and lowered their heads shyly.
He wore several gold bracelets on his hands, and as he walked, the golden bracelets clashed, making a crisp sound. He lifted his robe and knelt on one knee, "I am Ximen Ao, the Crown Prince of Xiliang, and I pay my respects to the Emperor of Yuan. Long live the Emperor, and a thousand years to the little princess."
The moment he finished speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Yuchi Xi, his dark green eyes dangerous and charming.
The envoys behind him also knelt on the ground and said, "We pay our respects to the Emperor of Yuan. Long live the Emperor."
"Stand up."
Emperor Dewu spoke in a light tone, and covered Yuchixi's eyes with his hands while speaking.
"Prince of Xiliang, this is Yuan Kingdom. It's inappropriate for you to be so disheveled."
Ximen Ao:?
This is how the royal family of Xiliang dressed... But, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. He picked up his outer robe and put it on, buttoning it up to cover his abdominal muscles.
The group of women from wealthy families were suddenly disappointed.
Yuchi Xi pulled away Emperor Dewu's hand, and when he saw that he had put on his clothes, he sighed.
[What are you wearing?! Your abs look so nice! Dad, you’re such a fool!]
Emperor Dewu: Oh, don’t even think about seducing my daughter!
Ximen Ao glanced behind him, and immediately a messenger came forward and handed him a brocade box. Ximen Ao stepped forward with the brocade box, and the Yuan guards blocked him with their swords.
He smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, this prince just wants to give the little princess a birthday gift."
Emperor Dewu and Ximen Ao exchanged a glance and said calmly, "Let him come up."
The guard then sheathed his sword and let him pass.
Ximen Ao walked up to Emperor Dewu, knelt on one knee, raised the brocade box above his head with both hands, and presented it. "I wish the little princess peace and happiness. This gift is a one-year-old gift from my Xiliang Kingdom to the little princess."
As he spoke, he reached out to open the clasp of the brocade box, opened the lid, and revealed a piece of paper inside.
Emperor Dewu raised his eyebrows, but was not angry.
But that look was not really kind.
Ximen Ao smiled gently, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. You can open this paper and take a look."
Emperor Dewu reached out and picked it up, opened it, and saw that it was written: The Western Liang Kingdom presented two iron mines to the young princess of the Yuan Kingdom.
Yuchi Xi:!!!
hiss!
You know, iron is needed to make weapons, and iron ore is a rare resource in any country.
The Xiliang Kingdom actually gave away two iron mines directly?
What is this for?
There is no such plot in the original novel. After all, her character in the original novel is just a supporting role, and a supporting role that was abandoned at the beginning. She is not in the palace, so naturally there is no one-year-old birthday party.
Ximen Ao looked at Emperor Dewu with a smile on his face. Emperor Dewu asked him, "What does your country mean?"
"Two iron mines, huh? Just a first-birthday gift?"
He doesn't believe it.
Ximen Ao stopped beating around the bush and said, "Our Xiliang Kingdom's Imperial Concubine recently gave birth to a prince, and she wants to get him engaged to the Yuan Kingdom's little princess!"
"If you agree, we can send more..."
The originally noisy surroundings became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Ximen Ao's voice gradually weakened until it disappeared.
What's going on?
He felt like a thorn in his back!
Ximen Ao glanced over and saw that everyone from the Yuan Kingdom was looking at him. Their eyes were not friendly...
He swallowed unconsciously and continued to speak, "Two iron mines!"
Yuchi Xi; ...
What the hell?
I'm only one year old, and your prince has just been born!
The idea of your Emperor of Xiliang is really cruel.
Yuchi Duanyi was the first to speak up. He sneered, "Is your Xiliang Kingdom in trouble? You're even offering your newborn prince to our Yuan Kingdom for marriage!"
"funny!"
"Just two iron mines, and you want to marry my little princess of Yuan Kingdom? You're just dreaming!"
"Bah!"
Yuchi Duanyi spat at him directly.
Ximen Ao's face suddenly turned pale.
Concubine Liang covered her mouth and laughed, "It's just two iron mines, what a thing, why would you bring them out and embarrass yourself?"
Ximen Ao: ...
Emperor Dewu tore up the paper in his hand. "Two iron mines, huh! What a waste!"
"You are not worthy of showing it off in front of me."
Emperor Dewu's eyes were like blades, and he kicked him, "Get out!"
Ximen Ao had never expected that Emperor Dewu would suddenly attack. He was kicked and rolled down. He fell to the ground and looked at Emperor Dewu in disbelief. These were two iron mines!
