The day of the banquet was extremely lively. Celebrities, great men, aristocratic families, and officials above the third rank in the entire capital all brought valuable gifts to the Regent's Palace to offer their congratulations.
The banquet began, the Regent appeared, and the guests all had respectful expressions on their faces.
One of them stood up with the other guests, raised his glass and congratulated the Regent.
His appearance was different from that of the people of the Great Qi State. His skin was darker, his facial features were more three-dimensional, and the clothes he wore were also different from those of the Great Qi State.
This person has a special identity. He is none other than the second prince of Nanyue.
The second prince of Nanyue raised his wine glass and looked at the regent in front of him with burning eyes.
Last time, the Nanyue prince's plan failed and he escaped by chance. Moreover, because he was dressed in black and wrapped his face tightly with a black scarf and mask, his identity was not exposed.
After the attack, the Regent became furious when he returned to the capital. He directly ordered that the ransom for the King of Nanyue be increased to 200,000 gold and the number of cities to be increased to 20.
If Nanyue refused to comply, he would kill the king of Nanyue on the spot and lead his troops to flatten the Nanyue Kingdom.
After the eldest prince fell off a cliff and disappeared, the second prince hurriedly fled back to South Vietnam secretly to take charge of the situation.
He and his subordinates discussed the matter and decided to agree to the request of the Great Qi, collect 200,000 taels of gold, cede 20 cities on the border, and exchange for the return of the King of Nanyue.
The second prince had thought about killing his father and seizing the throne, but this could not be done in the territory of Da Qi or Nanyue.
He had no choice but to restrain himself and rush to the border in person to bring his father back.
The King of Nanyue preferred the eldest prince who looked very much like him, and did not like the second prince who was not as bold as him.
Even though the Second Prince had made up his mind to raise enough money to save him, he still didn't like the Second Prince.
After returning to Nanyue, the King of Nanyue took in many concubines and planned to have more princes, hoping that they would grow up to be brave warriors who could fight for him and seize the territories of Da Qi or other neighboring countries.
When the second prince learned of the King of Nanyue's intentions, he was filled with hatred and murderous intent.
The desire to kill his father and seize power is stronger than ever.
