Princess Consort Is No Pushover

"Concubine Zhao gave you three plaques just now, and you gave her a hug. My king gave you so many plaques, why didn't you show any sign?" Chu Xuanchen said unhappily.

"So that's the case? Well then, I'll give you a hug too." Yun Ruoyue didn't expect that this guy would act shamelessly in public.

"Three signs for a hug, I have twelve here, how can one be enough?" Chu Xuanchen asked coldly, standing up straight.

"I'll give you four, okay? Buy four and get one free, add one more, five, is that enough?" Yun Ruoyue was afraid that people would notice their conversation, so she hurried towards Chu Xuanchen and quickly hugged her He hit five.

Then, she quickly withdrew her body, blushing, lowered her head, and only stared at her toes.

This scene must have been seen by others, and someone must have laughed at her in their hearts.

"It's more or less the same." After Chu Xuanchen finished speaking, he walked away calmly and satisfied.

In the end, Emperor Hongyuan got up himself, and solemnly put his own brand into Yun Ruoyue's box.

Even the emperor threw himself into the cloud like a moon, so she deserved to be number one.

Emperor Hongyuan finally announced, "Concubine Li is intelligent and graceful, with outstanding skills. She has won the most brands and deserves the first place. Then this piece of my personal jade pendant will be given to her from now on."

After speaking, he put the jade pendant on the tray in the eunuch's hand.

After Yun Ruoyue thanked him, she took the jade pendant.

As for who is the second and third place, everyone is no longer concerned.

Now, Yun Ruoyue became the focus of everyone again.

After she sat back in her seat, she pretended to bury her head in peeling pine nuts. She didn't want to be the focus of the audience anymore, otherwise, the Queen's party would be jealous to death.

When voting just now, the queen's party voted for the second place, a niece of the queen's family.

When casting, the eyes of Concubine Shu, Concubine Hui and others wished to swallow her alive.

So she decided to keep a low profile.

When the competition of the noble ladies came to an end, at this moment, the envoys who were sitting in the corner and dressed in foreign costumes suddenly stood up together.

Among them, an envoy with a beard and a felt robe headed by him said provocatively: "Your Majesty, since Dayi Kingdom became a vassal state of Chu Kingdom, for more than ten years, we have paid tribute every year and proclaimed ourselves ministers every year. After so many years of paying tribute, it has already led to the exhaustion of our national power and the emptiness of the national treasury. The people of my Dayi are not happy. Today, I propose a question to test everyone. In the time of one stick of incense, if anyone can In the boiling oil pan, take out the holy beads of my Dayi with bare hands, and my Dayi will continue to surrender to Chu and continue to pay tribute. If the time for a stick of incense comes, no warrior can take out the holy beads, then Can the Chu State exempt me from the tribute from Dayi?"

As soon as this remark came out, the four people were in an uproar.

This kind of diplomatic conference of envoys usually causes troubles. Usually, the vassal state paying the tribute is disobedient and does not want to pay the tribute, or wants to pay less tribute and get more benefits, or the troubles caused by the provocation of the enemy country.

Unexpectedly, it also appeared this time.

After hearing this, Emperor Hongyuan's face was so gloomy that he could bleed, "Fifteen years ago, it was your Dayi who voluntarily bowed down to our Chu State and paid tribute repeatedly. In exchange, our Chu State will send troops to protect your Dayi. Safety. You have not had wars in Dayi for more than ten years, and you have not been harassed and bullied by other countries, all thanks to the asylum of our Chu State. Why, you don’t want Chu’s asylum now?"
