Chapter 216 Self-recommendation
"General Yuan is still as loyal as ever!" Tuoba Hun snorted coldly and raised the corner of his mouth.
"I am a citizen of the Dali Dynasty!" Yuan Qifeng said solemnly, "Of course I must be loyal to the Dali Dynasty."
Tuoba Hun raised his chin arrogantly and said, "Since General Yuan is a citizen of the Dali Dynasty, he is the host. Now that I, a guest, have come to your Dali Dynasty, you are trying to stop me. I'm afraid that this is not the way to treat a guest. I don't think I have done anything excessive."
"When guests come from afar, we in Dali will naturally welcome them warmly, but..." Yuan Qifeng looked at Tuoba Hun coldly: "Prince Tuoba should have heard that guests should follow the host's wishes. And just now, was Prince Tuoba trying to threaten the host family?"
Tuoba Hun narrowed his eyes and looked at Yuan Ziyou for a long moment. A hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said, "General Yuan, what are you talking about? We have known each other for more than ten years. Don't you think you don't understand me? We Chi Le always follow our hearts. Just now, this prince just wanted to have a word with His Majesty!"
"I only know the eldest prince on the battlefield!" Yuan Qifeng smiled faintly: "I really don't understand the eldest prince's style of being a guest in other people's houses."
"Hmph!" Tuoba Hun swung his sleeves. "This prince really didn't realize that General Yuan, besides his ability on the battlefield, is also so good at talking."
"Prince Tuoba, you are so kind!"
While Yuan Qifeng and Tuoba Hun were talking, the booklet had already been circulated among the civil and military officials, and they all frowned in dissatisfaction.
Finally, Eunuch Liu returned the booklet to Tuoba Hun.
"Prince Tuoba, you've seen that your sincerity is not very satisfactory!" Emperor Wen of Qi smiled faintly: "You have no intention of provoking disputes, and we in Dali will naturally not cause trouble. However, since we want to negotiate, I hope that Prince Tuoba will adopt a negotiating attitude."
Tuoba Hun shook the book in his hand and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, this book does not contain all the information!"
"Oh?" Emperor Wen of Qi raised his eyebrows and said nothing more, just looking at Tuoba Hun.
"A'man!" Tuoba Hun called out.
As soon as the words fell, the woman behind Tuoba Hun, who had been silent all this time, took a few steps forward gently and bowed deeply to Emperor Wen of Qi: "Aman greets Your Majesty!"
Just now, when Ah Man entered the hall to pay his respects, he was with the other Chi Le people. Ah Man's voice was mixed among the group of men, and he deliberately lowered it, so it was difficult to hear.
At this time, Ah Man was the only one who saluted, and the sound immediately reached everyone's ears.
The sound was really like an oriole singing out of a valley.
Others were fine, but Xuanyuan Xiao felt his heart was gently scratched by that voice.
"Stand up!" Emperor Wen of Qi nodded majestically.
"Yes!" Ah Man responded and stood up. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the veil covering her face fluttered down from Ah Man's face. In an instant, Ah Man's appearance fell into everyone's eyes!
"hiss!"
Many people gasped when they saw Ah Man’s true appearance!
This... with a color like this, it's no exaggeration to say that she is a stunning beauty!
Emperor Wen of Qi was also stunned by Ah Man's appearance, and his mind was slightly dazed. However, Emperor Wen of Qi was an emperor after all. No matter how much he liked the beauty's color, he valued the chair under him more.
Emperor Wen of Qi was only stunned for a moment, then he calmed down. Xuanyuan Che glanced at Ah Man, lowered his head slightly, and didn't glance at her again. Xuanyuan Xiao was completely shocked by Ah Man's beauty.
Even though he was a prince of the Dali Dynasty, he had never seen such a beautiful woman in his life.
Seeing that most of the people present were fascinated by Ah Man's beauty, Tuoba Hun raised the corner of his mouth proudly, but when he caught sight of Yuan Qifeng's clear eyes, his heart sank slightly!
This Yuan Qifeng is really terribly upright and old-fashioned. Even when he first saw a beauty like Ah Man, he couldn't control himself. But Yuan Qifeng didn't show any infatuation at all. No wonder...
Tuoba Hun smiled faintly at Yuan Qifeng, but he became even more ruthless in his heart!
"Your Majesty, what do you think of this gift from our Chi-Le?" Tuoba Hun said to Emperor Wen of Qi with a slight smile.
"She is indeed a stunning beauty!" Emperor Wen of Qi also smiled. Although he knew that the other party had sent the beauty here with bad intentions, he still couldn't help but glance at Ah Man: "I wonder what Prince Tuoba's intention is in sending such a beauty here?"
Tuoba Hun laughed heartily: "Why would you want to? It's just a gift. Doesn't Your Majesty like it?"
"You..." Emperor Wen of Qi was about to say something when he was interrupted by Xuanyuan Xiao's voice.
"Father!" Xuanyuan Xiao took a few steps forward, walked onto the red carpet, and bowed to Emperor Wen of Qi. "The gift sent by the Chi-Le is too shallow. With such an apology, we must not release the Third Prince Tuoba back to the Chi-Le!"
When Tuoba Hun heard Xuanyuan Xiao say this, anger appeared on his face. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he heard Xuanyuan Xiao continue, "I am willing to recommend myself and discuss the amount of the apology with Prince Tuoba. I will definitely give your father a satisfactory reply!"
"Oh?" Emperor Wen of Qi looked at Xuanyuan Xiao. Xuanyuan Xiao was Concubine Liu's son, and Emperor Wen of Qi favored him a little. Seeing him say this, he said, "If that's the case, then Xiao'er should have a good discussion with Prince Tuoba!"
"Yes, father!" Xuanyuan Xiao saluted respectfully.
"Hmph!" Tuoba Hun snorted coldly, "These gifts that this prince brought are made with great sincerity. You better not be greedy!"
Xuanyuan Xiao looked at Tuoba Hun with a smile: "Prince, no matter what the result is, don't make a hasty judgment. I think you will agree with my opinion in the end."
"Hmph, don't talk nonsense!" Tuoba Hun narrowed his eyes and looked at Xuanyuan Xiao.
Xuanyuan Xiao raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Whether it's nonsense or not, Prince Tuoba will know if he tries it!"
"Okay!" Tuoba Hun said arrogantly, "Then this prince will wait for the Second Prince at the inn tomorrow!"
"No problem!" Xuanyuan Xiao bowed and said with a smile.
"Hmph!" Tuoba Hun bowed to Emperor Wen of Qi and said, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave now!"
After saying this, without waiting for Emperor Wen of Qi to speak, he turned around and left angrily with A'man and the guards.
As soon as Tuoba Hun left, the officials began to discuss.
"How domineering!"
"It's really a barbarian country, with no manners at all!"
"That's right! This is Dali, and yet you're still so rude!"
…
"quiet--"
Eunuch Liu's voice made the hall suddenly quiet.
"Xiao'er, are you sure?" asked Emperor Wen of Qi.
"Your Majesty, I will do my best!" Xuanyuan Xiao said hurriedly.
"Good!" Emperor Wen of Qi said with a smile, "If this matter is accomplished, I will definitely reward you!"
"Thank you, Father!"
