"Your Majesty, I heard that General Huo has returned victorious. Your Majesty wants to hold a celebration banquet for General Huo."
When Wushuang was lazily enjoying the breeze and eating fruit, her trusted palace maid came in from outside and brought her a new news.
"General Huo?" Wushuang asked after hearing this, "That Huo Yuanzhou who is as famous as my father, General Huo?"
"Yes." Cuizhu, the trusted palace maid, nodded.
"Tsk..." Wushuang sat up. "General Huo has triumphed over the Northern Rong. His Majesty is very happy."
Wushuang nodded.
This Huo Yuanzhou is very young, only twenty-six years old, but he is able to be on par with Wushuang's father, General He, all because of the support of Yan Mingting.
Yes, Huo Yuanzhou was able to sit in the position of general at such a young age, all because of the support of Emperor Yan Mingting.
Huo Yuanzhou was indeed a genius. He always returned victorious from every battle and lived up to Yan Mingting's expectations.
But Wushuang was very curious. Yan Mingting insisted on thinking that the He family had a large army and was worried that the He family would rebel.
Isn’t he worried that Huo Yuanzhou will rebel?
Huo Yuanzhou has achieved so many great feats at such a young age. Isn't that a sign of his achievements being too great to be feared by his superior?
"Your Majesty, where will you hold the celebration banquet?" Wushuang asked.
"In Feixian Pavilion." Cuizhu replied.
"The Queen has already started making preparations, and the banquet will be held in three days."
Wushuang stroked her hair and smiled, "Let's go find His Majesty with me."
Since she is going to attend the party, isn't it too much for her to want to look beautiful?
Since she wants to dress up, she must have jewelry and fancy clothes, right?
Luxurious clothes definitely require the best fabrics. There is not much tribute fabric left in her warehouse, so she has to ask Yan Mingting for some.
There are also jewelry that match her gorgeous clothes, which definitely need to be replaced, and of course Yan Mingting needs to provide them.
As an emperor, isn't it your duty to give your concubines beautiful clothes and jewelry?
Dragon Palace.
"The Imperial Concubine requests an audience..." The young eunuch outside the palace gate saw Wushuang's sedan chair coming and hurried in to report.
When the chief eunuch heard the news, he hurried to tell their majesty.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine is here." The chief eunuch whispered to Yan Mingting.
"Oh?" Yan Mingting frowned slightly when he heard that. He was a little dissatisfied that Wushuang came to find him at this time, and even found Long Yu Palace.
The Longyu Palace was the bedroom of Emperor Yan Mingting, where he handled state affairs and received ministers.
Wushuang came in broad daylight, which obviously disturbed Yan Mingting from handling government affairs or meeting with ministers, which made Yan Mingting a little unhappy.
It is obvious that Yan Mingting is meeting with ministers now.
Yan Mingting said to the chief eunuch, "Take the imperial concubine to the side hall."
"Yes." The chief eunuch hurried down.
Yan Mingting looked at the tall figure below and said, "Mr. Huo, you've traveled all the way here, it must be very hard."
"Mr. Huo, go back and rest first. I will hold a celebration banquet for you and all the soldiers in three days."
"Yes, I thank your Majesty for your grace."
…
Wushuang's sedan chair stopped outside the gate of Longyu Palace. She got off the sedan chair and walked into Longyu Palace.
Just when she was halfway there, a tall figure came towards her.
Wushuang looked at the figure in armor with some surprise. According to her visual estimation, the other person should be more than 1.9 meters tall. Such a tall height was really rare in ancient times.
Then she saw the other person's face clearly. It was a mixed-race face with deep features, and he looked very handsome and cool.
Huo Yuanzhou?
Wushuang remembered Huo Yuanzhou's life experience. He was the child of a daughter of the Dayan royal family and a foreigner.
Of course, when the daughters of the Dayan royal family were married off, they would basically be given the title of princess.
Therefore, Huo Yuanzhou is the child born to a royal princess and a foreign royal family member.
But his mother died a few years after giving birth to him. He had a hard time living with his father, so he was taken back to Dayan by his mother's confidant.
Later, Huo Yuanzhou was raised in the royal family.
Of course, Huo Yuanzhou was unknown at that time until he emerged at the age of fifteen and made many outstanding achievements after joining the army.
Gradually, he was valued by Yan Mingting and supported all the way to his current position of general.
Tsk, I didn’t expect Huo Yuanzhou to be so handsome?
Being mixed-race isn't always good-looking.
But Huo Yuanzhou's mother and his father's side should both be good-looking, so he inherited the good looks of both parents.
This kind of cool and handsome mixed-race guy was the first time she met someone who suited her taste.
Huo Yuanzhou also saw Wushuang's figure from afar. The person who could still be seen at first sight even when surrounded by a crowd was worthy of the title of the most beautiful woman in the country.
Huo Yuanzhou really didn't expect that he would meet the imperial concubine when he entered the palace this time, and he met her in Longyu Palace.
Huo Yuanzhou walked to a place about three meters away from Wushuang and stopped. He clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "Your Highness Huo Yuanzhou pays homage to the Imperial Concubine."
Wushuang quickly opened her folding fan and gently covered the lower half of her face with it. She smiled at Huo Yuanzhou and said, "So it's General Huo? I was wondering who is so favored by His Majesty."
"Congratulations to General Huo on your victorious return." Wushuang said with a smile looking at Huo Yuanzhou.
"It is only thanks to Your Majesty's blessing that I can return in triumph." Huo Yuanzhou said.
Wushuang nodded, "I should indeed thank Your Majesty for his protection."
"I'm in a hurry to see His Majesty, so I won't chat with General Huo any more." Wushuang nodded to Huo Yuanzhou and turned away.
