Chu Qianhuang looked at Jialuo beside the emperor again, without blinking.

The only thing left in her eyes was the noble and holy monk in white in front of her, her eyes were fanatical and persistent.

Only she knew that in the distant future, the man before her would unify the Central Plains single-handedly, ending the hundreds of years of division and separatism between Northern Qi and Southern Hao, making the name of "Da Hao" shocking and powerful throughout the world.

During his reign, he expanded the territory of Dahao beyond that of the previous dynasty. Even the Red Di were incorporated into the territory of Dahao, thus creating the glorious "Kaiyuan Reign"!

The name of Uhajaro will surely go down in history as a wise ruler!

Bang bang bang!

Chu Qianhuang's heartbeat quickened and her blood boiled. She said to herself that as long as she could save him from his dire situation, he would definitely look at her differently.

With Uhaga Tower as her support, she will definitely be able to change her destiny!

An unusually bright look bloomed in Chu Qianhuang's eyes.

As for Chu Qianchen...

Chu Qianhuang glanced at Chu Qianchen not far away without making any expression.

Even if Chu Qianchen is familiar with Jialou now, Jialou will soon leave Da Qi, and Chu Qianchen will be trapped in Prince Chen's Mansion. The two countries are thousands of miles apart, and she will never have the chance to contact Jialou again in her lifetime.

This is also true in dreams.

Thinking about it, Chu Qianhuang's heart gradually calmed down, elegant and dignified.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Crown Prince Gu Nanjin cleared his throat and said with a smile, "Father, the archery skills of the Great Prince Wuhe are extraordinary, and the swordsmanship of Lieutenant General Su is also unmatched. It can be said that each has his own merits."

Gu Nanjin tried to ease the atmosphere. What he said was true. If they really fought with swords, Su Mubai might not lose to Tama.

The emperor still looked gloomy, suppressing his displeasure.

Originally, it was a happy event for Su Mubai to win the first place in the martial arts test. It showed the military strength of Great Qi in front of these foreign barbarians and was enough to add icing on the cake for today's Longevity Festival. However, it was ruined by Wuhegalou.

The words that Wuhejialou had just said echoed over and over in the emperor's mind, making him feel like he had something stuck in his throat.

Obviously, he is the emperor of Da Qi, but in Wuhejialou's words, it seems that everything in Da Qi is due to Gu Jue!

The more the emperor thought about it, the more displeased and embarrassed he became. He gripped the folding fan even tighter in his hand, and veins popped out on the back of his hand.

Su Mubai is indeed a talent, but he was promoted by Gu Jue after all, and his heart is probably on Gu Jue's side. No matter what achievements he makes in the future, others will still mention Gu Jue, saying that Gu Jue has the ability to recognize people and that it was Gu Jue who trained and promoted Su Mubai.

The emperor's thoughts were in a mess, and his eyes gradually became more sinister when he looked at Su Mubai.

Suspicion, suspicion, displeasure, hesitation, etc. are all there.

"Su Mubai," the emperor said in a high-sounding manner, with a stiff face and an overly hearty smile to cover up his displeasure, "You must continue to serve Da Qi well and do not let me down in my regard for you."

At first glance, the emperor's words seemed to be just routine compliments, but Su Mubai, who was as smart as he was, could tell at a glance that something was wrong with the emperor's expression.

Although Su Mubai did not hear what the emperor and Jialuo said in the stands just now, thinking about Tama's two birds with one stone just now, he couldn't help but think about it.

He had heard the prince mention a person named Uhagalou, and the prince had a very high opinion of him.

Judging from Jialuo's personality, the arrow he shot just now was probably not an active provocation, but his response to the emperor... In other words, the conversation between the emperor and Nan Hao just now was not satisfactory.

Su Mubai narrowed his eyes, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your teachings."

The emperor fanned himself slowly with his folding fan.

Since Su Mubai won the first place in the martial arts test and brought glory to Da Qi, he must be rewarded, but he cannot be used in a high position. Gu Jue's people must not be given the opportunity to stir up trouble.

The emperor quickly made a decision and said, "Su Mubai, I will reward you with one thousand taels of gold and promote you to the commander-in-chief of the Five Cities Army."

The Five Cities Military Affairs Department was divided into five departments: East, West, South, North and Center. Each department had a commander-in-chief of the fourth rank. The commander-in-chief was in charge of the Five Cities Military Affairs Department and was of the second rank.

Su Mubai was promoted from a third-rank lieutenant general to a second-rank commander-in-chief, which is considered a triple jump.

If it weren't for this martial arts test, Su Mubai would not have been able to get such an opportunity even if he endured for seven or eight years unless he made great contributions on the battlefield.

Su Mubai immediately knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and accepted the decree, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace and reward!"

There was a lively noise all around, and everyone was talking about it. Some people could not hide the envy on their faces, while others looked at Su Mubai with sympathy, seeing through the emperor's move of promoting him in name only and demoting him in reality.

Although Su Mubai's rank seemed to have risen, in fact, the Five Cities Army was just a place to get by and had no real power. It was obvious that Su Mubai was disliked by the emperor and was left idle.

Gu Nanjin frowned slightly, feeling that it was inappropriate, but he couldn't stop it in public, as this would only anger his father further.

Immediately afterwards, the emperor rewarded Sarto and rewarded him with five thousand taels of silver and a Persian sword.

"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor of Daqi, for the reward!"

Sarto thanked the emperor in a loud and powerful voice.

He and his tribesmen all shouted "Long live the emperor" with sincerity and honesty. This atmosphere seemed to be contagious. Others in the stands followed suit and shouted "Long live the emperor". The atmosphere in the parade ground became warm again, and everyone was united.

The emperor's mood suddenly improved, and he felt quite pleased with himself for having subdued the barbarians in all directions.

Gu Nanjin frowned even more tightly and could not help looking at Jialou. He saw him smiling and slowly twirling the Buddhist beads in his hand. His wise eyes seemed to have comprehended all the causes and effects in the world.

Although Jialuo didn't say anything, Gu Nanjin's heart sank a little bit.

The emperor wanted to show off the country's strength in front of Nan Hao. He thought that Wuhejialou was young and energetic, so he provoked him repeatedly, trying to dominate the situation. However, he failed to please Wuhejialou and let Wuhejialou take the initiative. The emperor was even influenced by the other party's few words and felt resentful towards Su Mubai.

Su Mubai was originally a talented general. The Ninth Prince was critically ill. Nan Hao and other foreign tribes were also watching the situation. Da Qi was in need of people. At this time, his father should have used talents in an unconventional way, but instead he let suspicion prevail and was led by the nose by Wuhegalou.

Gu Nanjin sighed secretly in his heart: In the game between the two countries, his father lost, and lost shamefully, making Nan Hao laugh at him.

Gu Nanjin rubbed his brows, thinking about discussing with his uncle how to persuade his father.

Gu Nanjin gave a look to the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, who then went to ask the emperor whether he wanted to take his seat.

The emperor nodded slightly, and then said to Jialou: "Prince Wuhe, it's almost time, please follow me to the table."

The emperor seemed to be smiling, but the smile did not reach his eyes, and it was obviously a forced smile.

Jialuo agreed with a gentle and polite attitude. No matter how the emperor tested and provoked him again and again, he remained calm and nobody could figure out his true colors.

The emperor and Jialuo left the table. Gu Nanjin and other distinguished officials also stood up and surrounded the emperor as he left.

All the others present bowed and saluted, shouting in unison: "Long live our emperor."

After seeing the emperor off, everyone else also left. Chu Qianchen returned to Fengluan Palace with the Third Princess, Princess Changning, and the others. Along the way, they talked and laughed, and the topic was still about the martial arts test. Some people praised Su Mubai's swordsmanship, some praised Duomo's two birds with one stone, and some talked about their old friends who also participated in the martial arts test...

The young girls gathered together, talking one after another, like sparrows, chattering non-stop, until they entered the Fengluan Palace, when they all fell silent, not daring to make any noise.

There were even more people in Fengluan Palace than before the girls left. There were more than twenty women of different ages, wearing jewels and precious stones, sitting there, all in elegant clothes.

The ladies who knew each other gathered in groups of three or four to talk.

Shen was talking with the wife of Duke Mu and the wife of the Crown Prince. When Nanny Chen saw Chu Qianchen and Chu Qianhuang coming back, she lowered her voice and reminded them, "The eldest and second young ladies are back."

Lady Mu was delighted and said, "I haven't seen Sister Huang for quite some time."

She looked up at the main hall and saw Chu Qianhuang walking down the white marble steps to the eaves with a friendly smile. She always liked this granddaughter and felt that she was just like her daughter when she was young, smart, generous, and talented.

"Huang..." Lady Mu was about to wave to Chu Qianhuang when she suddenly saw another girl in red behind Chu Qianhuang from the corner of her eye. Her eyes widened slightly and her gaze paused on the girl.

The graceful girl, who was no more than fourteen years old, walked up the stairs slowly. The sunlight shone on her bright face, and her pair of bright and beautiful eyes caught people's attention at first sight.

When the wind blew, the girl's dress began to ripple like water ripples. The flowers on the tree swayed continuously, and a fine rain of petals fell. Occasionally, a few scattered petals fell on the girl's body, as if decorating her dress.

For a moment, Lady Mu seemed to see her eldest daughter before she got married.

Because of the questions in the book review section, let me explain again that Qian Huang just had a dream.
