He would never let this happen, so he would never let go.
However, the current situation was very unfavorable to him. No matter how angry he was, he had to endure it!
He suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly: "Your Majesty, no matter what, the marriage between Prince Xian and the princess cannot be held without the consent of the Marquis of Huaiyang. Now that the princess is my fiancee, I will never give up on her. "
Hongyuan Emperor said unquestionably: "The date of the princess and Prince Xian's wedding has been set. It will be on the 28th of this month. I have already announced it to the world, it cannot be changed. At that time, I invite the prince to come. The Crown Prince is a man of striking appearance and has outstanding judgment. I believe that you will definitely be able to find another beauty. "
Hearing Hongyuan Emperor's cold tone, Dongfang Wuxiang clenched his fists. His eyes flashed with coldness.
The atmosphere in the hall became very awkward. Seeing this, Xue Tianxiang hurriedly stood up to smooth things over.
She smiled gently and said: "Your Majesty, Prince Wuxiang came from afar. This banquet is specially held for him. Why don't we sit down and drink and talk?"
With Xue Tianxiang easing the atmosphere, a smile appeared on Hongyuan Emperor's face.
He looked at Dongfang Wuxiang and said with a smile: "Noble Consort Xue is right. Prince Wuxiang came from afar and is a guest. Let's talk about the wedding later. Prince, I have prepared good wine and delicious food for you. Sit down and taste my Chu's food and feel my Chu's culture. Come, give us a seat. "
"Prince, Second Young Master, this way please." Immediately, a eunuch came and led Dongfang Wuxiang to a seat.
Seeing Hongyuan Emperor give him a way out, Dongfang Wuxiang also took a step back. He said politely: "Thank you, Your Majesty. It is my honor to receive Your Majesty's hospitality."
With that, he led Nalan Xuan to a seat.
Noble Consort Xue hurriedly said: "Come, let's start the song and dance."
After Noble Consort Xue finished speaking, the beautiful dancers entered in a line.
The sound of a string instrument rang out from the stands. Following the sound, the dancers went up on stage and began to perform.
In an instant, the hall was filled with music, singing and dancing.
At this time, the Hongyuan Emperor raised the wine cup in front of him and said to the crowd, "Dear officials, welcome the Crown Prince of Donglin to Chu as a guest. Let us toast him first."
Everyone raised their wine glasses.
Dongfang Wuxiang stood up, raised his wine cup, and said politely, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Wuxiang also wishes Your Majesty good health and good luck. Your Majesty, I'll drink to show my respect! "
As he spoke, he downed the wine in his hand.
Hongyuan Emperor and the others also raised their heads and drank.
After drinking this cup, everyone sat down and began to drink and eat. The atmosphere at the scene eased up a lot.
After three rounds of wine, Dongfang Wuxiang suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your hospitality. The Chu Country is a country of etiquette, and it would be impolite not to reciprocate. In return, I would like to give you another gift. "
As soon as he said this, everyone stared at Dongfang Wuxiang warily.
He had already given the gift at the beginning, and now he wants to give another gift. What does he want?
Hongyuan Emperor narrowed his eyes. He could see that Dongfang Wuxiang's gift had a deeper meaning.
He didn't want to accept such a gift, so he lightly said, "The Crown Prince has already given me a lot of Donglin specialties. There's no need to be polite."
Dongfang Wuxiang said, "Your Majesty has treated me so well, letting me taste your country's wine and enjoy the peerless singing and dancing. Of course, I will give Your Majesty a better gift. I hope Your Majesty won't refuse. "
Seeing Dongfang Wuxiang so insistent, Hongyuan Emperor lightly said, "Good! Then I'll open my eyes! "
Dongfang Wuxiang smiled and clapped his hands, "Come, bring the gift."
As soon as he finished speaking, several warriors wearing Donglin clothes came in. The leader of the warriors held a long and narrow brocade box in his hand.
Everyone was stunned. The gift must be in this brocade box!
This brocade box was so long and narrow. Who knew what was inside?
At this moment, the warrior had already respectfully raised the brocade box in front of Dongfang Wuxiang.
He then knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, the gift is here."
Dongfang Wuxiang scanned the crowd and said, "Ah Bu, show the gift!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ah Bu stood up and handed the brocade box to one of the warriors behind him.
Then, he gently opened the brocade box. A silver light shot out from the brocade box.
Everyone stood up when they saw the silver light. They all wanted to know what was inside the brocade box.
At this moment, Ah Bu respectfully took out the item from the brocade box. Everyone looked at it and found that it was a fine iron sword that glowed with a cold light.
Ah Bu held the sword in his hand and slowly turned to face Hongyuan Emperor.
Hongyuan Emperor looked at the sword with a puzzled expression. "Crown Prince, what sword is this?"
Dongfang Wuxiang raised his eyebrows and pointed at the sword. "Your Majesty, this is called the Dragon Sparrow Sword. It was forged by the best swordsmith in our country, Zhong Zi …"
Zongzi?
Yun Ruoyue couldn't help but burst into laughter when she heard this. Why was there someone whose name was Zongzi?
Was it sweet or savory Zongzi?
"What are you laughing about?" Yun Ruoyue was still laughing when Dongfang Wuxiang's cold voice sounded.
She hurriedly looked up and met Dongfang Wuxiang's angry eyes.
Only then did she realize that everyone was silent. She was the only one who burst into laughter.
She laughed when he was about to brag. This was a bit hurtful.
Chu Xuanchen sat on the side and looked at Yun Ruoyue with a hint of a smile.
Seeing the awkward situation, Yun Ruoyue hurriedly said, "Um, Crown Prince, I wasn't laughing at you. I just thought of a delicious food and couldn't help but laugh. I'm sorry! "
Everyone else also burst into laughter when they heard this.
"Delicious food?" Dongfang Wuxiang's face had already become as black as charcoal.
This woman dared to laugh at Grandmaster Zhong Zi's name?
Who was this woman? Who gave her the courage to do this?
He looked up to find this woman sitting beside Chu Xuanchen. Chu Xuanchen was looking at her with a doting expression.
He instantly came to a realization. This was most likely the renowned Divine Physician Yun Ruoyue.
Who would have thought that Yun Ruoyue was the one who laughed at him?
Very good, this woman was quite brave!
Emperor Hongyuan also wanted to laugh when he heard the words "Zhong Zi".
Especially when Dongfang Wuxiang looked up and said this name with a serious expression. He really wanted to laugh, but he forced himself to suppress it.
He was sure that everyone present wanted to laugh as well, but they were all suppressing it for Dongfang Wuxiang's sake. Who would have thought that Yun Ruoyue would actually laugh? Her laughter was very satisfying.
He said, "Crown Prince, what sword is this? Please continue to introduce it to us."
Dongfang Wuxiang took a deep breath and stared at the sword. "Your Majesty, this is called the Dragon Sparrow Sword. It was created by the most skilled blacksmith in our country, Grandmaster Zhong Zi. It's not a delicacy. "
Saying this, he glanced at Yun Ruoyue out of the corner of his eye. Then, he coughed lightly and cut to the chase. "Due to the rapid progress in our country's blacksmithing and blacksmithing techniques, Grandmaster Zhong Zi was able to create this new type of peerless sword. It can slice through metal like mud and is a hundred times more powerful than normal swords. It is a true divine weapon and only a divine weapon like this is worthy of Your Majesty. This is why I want to present it to Your Majesty. "
