The emperor was happy at first, but then he thought about it and felt that something was wrong.

When the news of the coup in Hao State came, he heard that the new emperor immediately appointed a crown prince, and that the crown prince also had children.

Andaman continued, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our country is 22 years old. The Crown Princess has passed away, leaving behind only one son and two daughters. If the princess of your country marries the Crown Prince, our Emperor will definitely make the princess the Crown Princess."

"The marriage between my Dahao and your country has been decided long ago. My emperor has long intended to have good relations with your country. I hope that our two countries can be friends forever!"

His words implicitly implied that the previous Emperor Hao did not attach importance to the alliance between the two countries, but the new Emperor Uhadula was different.

Andaman presented Uhadhara's handwritten letter with both hands, which was taken by Eunuch Ni and presented to the emperor personally.

Holding the letter from the Hao Kingdom, the emperor's brows relaxed. He felt that the other party's words were so pleasant to the ears. He felt inexplicably happy and in high spirits.

Before, he had mentioned the marriage between the two countries to Wuhejialou, but Wuhejialou had always acted like he was not interested in the marriage and ignored it. However, the prince insisted on coming up with the matter of marriage again and again, making it seem as if their Great Qi was inferior. This made the emperor very angry. He disliked Wuhejialou and did not like the prince's servility.

But now, in just a few months, the situation has suddenly reversed.

Now, it was the emperor of Nanhao who personally sent envoys to ask for the princess of Daqi in marriage. It was the Hao Kingdom "begging" Daqi.

The emperor smiled mockingly in his heart.

When my father was alive, he always praised Gu Jue for his ability to see the big picture and judge people. Now facts have proven that Gu Jue is just so-so.

Didn't Gu Jue secretly collude with Wuhejialou before, hoping to get support from Nanhao through him? !

But what was the result? ! Now that Wuhejia Tower was gone, Gu Jue also lost a powerful supporter. I want to see if Gu Jue can continue to show off his power! The emperor was quite pleased with himself, but he didn't show it on his face. He looked calm and self-sufficient, and said in a pretentious manner: "The ascension of your country's new emperor is a happy event for the country."

His words not only congratulated Wuhedu Luo on his ascension to the throne, but also meant that he recognized Wuhedu Luo as the new emperor of Hao State from the standpoint of the monarch of Da Qi.

This was a good start for Andaman and other Nanhao envoys.

Everyone knows that Uhaduluo is a traitor who usurped the throne and is not in the right position. There are still three vassal kings in Hao State who have not submitted to him. The people in the country also have complaints about him and think that Uhaduluo is a traitor.

Now that he has the recognition of the Emperor of Great Qi, it is also a very important step for Uhaduluo to consolidate his throne.

At least, with this first step, they can move on to discussing the marriage between the two countries.

Andaman looked at the emperor with a smile, bowed again, and said: "On behalf of my emperor, I would like to thank His Majesty the Emperor of Daqi."

The ministers in the hall secretly exchanged glances with each other. No one had expected that the marriage between the two countries would be brought up again under such circumstances. Moreover, judging from the emperor's expression, the marriage would most likely be successful.

The emperor felt more cheerful and said modestly, "As for the marriage, let me think about it again. After all, it is a major matter concerning the marriage between the two countries."

To be honest, Andaman was not surprised that the emperor did not agree immediately.

After all, the current situation in Hao State is unstable, and Hao State is seeking marriage from the Emperor of Da Qi.

Given the character of the Emperor of Great Qi, it was natural for him to put on airs. If he agreed without hesitation, it would be a sign that something was wrong.

Andaman smiled and respectfully agreed, "Your Majesty is right."

"The princess is your majesty's beloved daughter. If she wants to marry into our Dahao, your majesty must consider it carefully."

Andaman looked extremely friendly and had a warm smile.

The emperor was very pleased with the flattery from Nanhao's envoys. He felt more and more that the initiative of this marriage was in his hands, unlike a few months ago.

The emperor originally wanted to let the prince entertain the envoy from Nan Hao, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly remembered that the prince was still kneeling in the Taimiao. If he gave this task to the prince, it would mean that he, as his father, would have to bow his head first.

Well, I'd better give the prince the cold shoulder first, then he will know what it means that a ruler is superior and a minister is inferior, and that a father is superior and a son is inferior.

Then, the emperor lowered his head and looked at the queue standing on the left. His eyes fell on a young man wearing a prince's dragon robe, and he said, "Second Prince, the matter of entertaining the envoys will be fully responsible by you and the Ministry of Rites."

The second prince, Gu Nanzhao, opened his eyes slightly wide in surprise and was a little confused, but he immediately stepped out and received the imperial edict together with the Minister of Rites.

After the crown prince was punished to kneel in the Taimiao, the second prince was summoned by the emperor to observe the court.

The expressions of the ministers gradually became subtle. Thinking of the memorial from Censor Wang to depose the crown prince, their hearts began to beat faster. Could it be that the emperor really wanted to depose the crown prince? !

Gu Nanzhao walked up to Andaman and the other two, smiled gently, and led the three Nanhao envoys out of the Golden Palace.

The morning court session continued, but because of the incident involving envoy Nan Hao, no one mentioned asking Prince Chen to attend the court session anymore.

"Prince Andaman, please come this way." Gu Nanzhao politely led the way for the three Andamans, "I will take you three to the post house to settle down first."

"Thank you, Your Highness the Second Prince." Andaman said politely.

The group walked towards the palace gate. Andaman looked at the magnificent and splendid Qi Palace and praised, "This is my first time in Da Qi. I heard that the capital of Da Qi is prosperous and the palace is even more magnificent and unparalleled in the world. It really lives up to its reputation."

When Andaman praised Daqi, Gu Nanzhao praised Dahao, talked about the description of Nanhao in the book, expressed his yearning for Nanhao, and ended with a sentence "I hope I can go south to see the scenery of Jiangnan one day."

After finishing his polite words, Andaman changed the subject and asked tentatively, "I wonder if your country's Prince Chen has returned to Beijing?"

When Gu Nanzhao heard the word Prince Chen, he thought of Chu Qianchen. His heart felt as if it was pricked by a needle and his expression showed a slight pain.

"..." Andaman stared at Gu Nanzhao without blinking, and immediately noticed his abnormality, and his heart tightened.

Uhadhara's biggest worry was Uhakala.

Everyone in Hao knew that an auspicious sign descended from the sky when Wuhajialou was born. When he grew up, he was extremely talented, had a noble character, and was well versed in Buddhist teachings. He was very popular among the people of Hao, who were devout believers in Buddhism.

Originally, Uhadula decided to kill Uhagalou, and spared no effort to arrange several ambushes. However, due to the intervention of King Chen of Da Qi, several ambushes failed. Now the whereabouts of Uhagalou is unknown.

Logically speaking, Wuhejialou was hit by a poison arrow containing "Xingyue", and there is no antidote for "Xingyue", so he should be dead. The problem is that their king cannot rest in peace until he sees the body.

This time, the purpose of the new emperor asking him to come to Qi was, on the one hand, to achieve a marriage alliance between the two countries, to let the prince marry the princess of Qi as the crown princess in order to win over Qi, so that the new emperor's position could be more stable.

On the other hand, he was also asked to come to the capital to see whether Gu Jue had returned to the capital and whether he had brought the Wuhejia Tower back to the capital.

If Wuhejialou managed to survive, he would naturally want to prevent any future trouble.

A hint of murderous intent flashed across Andaman's eyes.

Gu Nanzhao didn't notice Andaman's strange behavior and quickly came to his senses, telling himself over and over again in his heart that Sister Chen was already the Princess of Chen.

He calmed down and said with a smile as if nothing had happened: "The Ninth Prince has returned. He just came back yesterday."

Andaman tried to calm himself, smiled slightly, and said politely: "May I go to the Prince's Palace to visit His Royal Highness?"

"..."Gu Nanzhao looked hesitant.

Even his eldest brother was punished by the emperor because of the ninth uncle. If he dared to agree, he would probably not escape punishment when the matter reached his father's ears.

But on the other hand, he wanted to go to Prince Chen's Mansion. There, he could see his sister Chen again.

Seeing Gu Nanzhao hesitant, Andaman was delighted and felt that there was a chance.

He also knew that the Emperor of Da Qi disliked Prince Chen Gu Jue, or was wary of Prince Chen, and he probably would not like him, an envoy from Hao Kingdom, to meet Prince Chen.

He considered his words and said as tactfully as possible: "It was not the emperor who asked me to visit His Royal Highness Prince Chen. It was just that I met Prince Chen once when he visited Hao. We haven't seen each other for many years. It's a rare opportunity for me to come to Daqi, so I wanted to meet an old friend."

Andaman attributed his desire to visit the king to a personal matter.

"I see." Gu Nanzhao nodded with a smile.

At this time, they had arrived at the palace gate. Outside the palace gate, the carriages and horses were already prepared.

Gu Nanzhao turned his head and glanced in the direction of the Golden Throne Hall, but still did not dare to agree directly. He said, "I will send you all to the posthouse to settle down first. I need to ask my father about this matter."

He did not refuse outright, and Andaman and his two companions immediately understood what he meant. They were all smart people, and they exchanged glances quickly with each other without saying anything.

The second prince of Da Qi is obviously not a decisive person. Just a few words show that he has a very soft temper.

The fact that the Emperor of Da Qi arranged such a person to entertain them was undoubtedly a "very good" thing for them.
