Tuoba Yang glanced at everyone and shouted:
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"The princess is a noble person, how can she be criticized casually?"
The ministers' voices became a little softer, but they had already said what needed to be said. Today, even if their mouths were blocked, it would not be able to stop the millions of people from speaking out.
Today, in Nanman, the princess's prestige has completely collapsed.
She shouldn't even think about turning over!
"Sister, don't take these words to heart. I have already taught them a lesson for you." Tuoba Yang smiled gently and waved his hand to beckon her to sit down and talk.
In an instant, it seemed as if he was the host and Tuoba Mingyue was the guest.
Oh no.
It's an outsider.
She had lived in this palace for twenty years, and at this moment, she felt like an outsider who couldn't fit in.
Looking at her beloved father, he was no longer as expectant and enthusiastic towards her as before.
He threw her into Lancheng, ignored her, and ruthlessly pushed her to her death.
Looking at the ministers, who once respected her and tried to curry favor with her, but now everyone came to step on her, those contemptuous and critical faces were like iron brands, imprinted in her mind and would never be forgotten.
At this moment, she was alone.
The Nanman King said, "Since you are back, please take a seat. Today is a good day for your brother. I am very pleased that you have come back to congratulate him and have such an open mind."
Tuoba Mingyue smiled obediently:
"It's all thanks to my father's good teaching."
She held up the wooden box in her hands and said, "This is a gift I brought to you, brother. I wonder if you like it?"
She wanted to step forward, but the chief eunuch took a step forward and stopped her.
She paused.
It was just a moment, with a smile on his face as usual, and he said, "Brother, are you unhappy?"
Tuoba Yang smiled: "Why wouldn't I like it?"
With a look, the chief eunuch understood, took the box with both hands, walked to the high seat and presented it.
And Tuoba Mingyue’s seat... was next to it.
Adjacent to the prime minister.
From childhood to adulthood, no matter how big or small the palace banquet was, her seat was always on the right hand side of the Nanman King, symbolizing her noble status and power, and she was the Nanman King's right-hand man.
Now, that position is occupied by Tuoba Yang.
And she could only sit with the officials.
Tuoba Yang opened the brocade box and saw a red tasseled spear that was only as short as his forearm. He was stunned for a moment:
"Why is it a Broken Cherry Spear?"
The Southern Barbarian King frowned: "What?"
Gifts, gifts, what's the point of giving something as incomplete as this?
The ministers couldn't help but crane their necks: "Broken Cherry Spear?"
"Princess, are you disrespecting the prince?"
"The princess must be unhappy with something, so she expressed it this way! Isn't she too narrow-minded?"
Tuoba Mingyue stood there calmly, with a warm smile on his face as usual:
"Brother, you have misunderstood. This Sakura Spear is made of thousand-year-old ice iron under the snowy mountains. It is sharp enough to cut iron like mud. There is a secret in it. It is priceless."
"oh?"
Tuoba Yang picked it up.
The tiny Broken Cherry Spear was only as short as a baby's arm. When held in the hand, it was longer than a dagger and shorter than a sword. It was really funny.
"Where's the secret?"
Tuoba Mingyue stepped forward, "I'll show you how."
"Stand there and talk. No need to come forward."
Tuoba Yang stood in the main seat, high above, several steps away. With his tall figure, he looked down upon Tuoba Mingyue below, as if he was commanding a subject.
He doesn't like this Broken Cherry Spear.
He raised his hand and threw it down.
Tuoba Mingyue caught it steadily, shook his wrist, and turned the hidden mechanism. With a sharp "clang" sound, the Broken Cherry Spear suddenly popped out and turned into a thin and long red tasseled spear!
The tassels swayed, and the tip of the sword emitted a cold light that seemed to drink blood.
In an instant, the smile on her lips suddenly turned cold, murderous intent flashed in her eyes, and she raised the red tasseled spear and threw it into the air.
call out!
Phew!
"prince!"
"ah!"
"The Great Prince!"
The violent energy breaks through the air!
The red tasseled spear pierced through the chief eunuch and shot straight into Tuoba Yang's chest, nailing him to the chair. Tuoba Yang opened his eyes wide in pain, his mouth was bleeding, and he almost lost his voice:
“Uh… uh… uh…”
"prince!"
Blood splattered everywhere!
The hall was in chaos in an instant!
The incident happened suddenly, and no one reacted, except Tuoba Mingyue, who stood there calmly, with the same curve at the corner of his lips:
"Do you like the gift I gave you, my dear brother?"
“You! You…”
The Nanman King stood up, and outside the hall, a group of soldiers with swords rushed in and quickly took control of the entire hall.
"Princess, it's done!"
"At the princess' command!"
The soldiers raised their swords. They were all Tuoba Mingyue's personal guards. Over the years, they had followed Tuoba Mingyue through life and death and fought side by side.
Tonight is no exception.
"Rebellious girl!"
The Nanman King glared at her, "Are you planning a rebellion?"
"rebel?"
Tuoba Mingyue sneered and stepped forward: "Father, I have been trained as an heir since I was a child. You have also admitted that I am the future heir of Nanman. Tonight, I just came to take back what belongs to me. How can it be considered a rebellion?"
"Or is it that my father broke his promise first and has something to hide?"
"you!"
The Nanman King pointed at her angrily.
"You are a woman, how can you inherit the throne? Besides, you have a brother..."
"Brother?"
Tuoba Mingyue glanced at the corpse beside him, "I have been an only child since I was young. My mother only gave birth to me. I wonder where my brother is?"
"you!"
The Nanman King was furious: "Do you think you can break out of the palace with such a small group of people? You are courting death, you rebellious girl! You have disappointed me so much!"
"Hahaha!"
Tuoba Mingyue seemed to have heard a huge joke.
She walked to the upper seat, holding the table with both hands, and stared directly at the Nanman King with a narrow brow and eyes, just across the table from her:
"From childhood to adulthood, have I ever disrespected you? Did I disrespect you? Did I ever disobey you?"
"I will do whatever you ask me to do, just like a man. I will kill the enemy in battle, navigate the political arena, fight with swords and spears, and go through life and death, just to satisfy you!"
She was afraid that her father would be disappointed in her.
He endured all the injuries he had received and only dared to show his medals to his father.
But, the father would never ask her if she was injured or if it hurt...
"I fought in the Chu State, devoted to expanding the territory for the Nanman people and building a career, but you kicked me away just because of a defeat, regardless of my life or death. You also took the opportunity to find your prince, forcibly sidelined me, and forced me into a desperate situation!"
My father is unfair.
The ministers added insult to injury.
The entire Nanman had let her down!
In this case, she could only kill him herself to relieve herself from the grief and dissatisfaction in her heart and find a way to survive from this desperate situation!
"Father, you abandoned me and used my twenty years of hard work to benefit a 'brother' I have never met. All these court officials despised and trampled on me."
Tuoba Mingyue overturned the table with both hands.
"If you don't want me to have a good life, then forget it!"
