It was impossible for her daughter to apologize to the King Of Zhao.
Once she apologized, her daughter would be accused of cursing the child, and it would be even more difficult for her to marry.
At this time, Xue Tian Xiang walked over and approached the Hongyuan Emperor. She said softly, "Your Majesty, I shouldn't be the one to comment on this matter. However, I love you very much and am worried about you. Recently, there have been many rumors among the people. If Princess Qi's words were to spread, I'm afraid people would think that those rumors were true. Our imperial family has always been peaceful. It's a happy occasion for the King Of Zhao to be pregnant. However, Princess Qi's words may turn this happy occasion into a bad one. "
Hearing this, the Hongyuan Emperor's face darkened.
Yes, the people were saying that he was an unlucky Emperor. Princess Qi's words clearly corresponded to these rumors.
Princess Qi cursing the unborn child was equivalent to saying that he was an unlucky Emperor. Even if his daughter-in-law was pregnant, she would not be able to give birth. Even if she gave birth, she would not be able to live.
Thinking of this, the Hongyuan Emperor glared at Princess Qi. He said angrily, "Princess Qi is so young, yet she spoke so arrogantly and offended the King Of Zhao's Consort. Men, drag her away. Slap her 20 times and lock her up for a month."
"Father, why are you punishing me? I did nothing wrong! "Princess Qi was angry and anxious when she heard the punishment.
She did not expect that her father, who had always doted on her, would punish her for the King Of Zhao's Consort.
This was all the doing of The Princess of Li and Consort Xue.
Consort Xue's voice was soft, but everyone around the Emperor heard it. Only the foreign envoys could not hear it.
mark(“zhong“);
If she had not instigated the Emperor, her father would not have punished her.
Seeing that the Emperor was angry, the Empress hurriedly walked over and pulled Princess Qi up. She gave her a look and said, "Shut up. You made a mistake and should be punished. Servants, why aren't you dragging the Princess away?"
After she finished speaking, several nannies behind her quickly dragged Princess Qi away.
Seeing the Empress's meaningful glance, the Seventh Princess chose to shut her mouth and didn't dare to speak anymore.
After this farce was over, Hongyuan Emperor hurriedly said to the envoys outside, "Everyone, I'm sorry. My daughter was a bit naughty just now and let everyone see a joke. Today is the Lantern Festival. I have specially ordered people to prepare fine wine, delicacies, singing and dancing for the entertainment of the distinguished guests. It can also be considered as a farewell for all of you. I hope that all of you can enjoy your last day in Chu. I hope that after you experience the local customs of the Chu Country, you will become a frequent visitor to the Chu Country. "
Tomorrow, these envoys would be returning to their countries.
Feng Lingtian smiled and stood over. "Your Majesty, you're exaggerating. The Seventh Princess is cute and young, so it's inevitable that she's a bit naive. She'll be fine when she grows up."
The others also chimed in, "This time when we came to Chu, we were warmly welcomed by the Chu Emperor and the commoners. The Chu Country is vast and rich in resources, and the commoners live and work in peace and contentment. The natural resources here are abundant, and the delicacies here are plentiful as well. None of us are willing to return home."
"We thank Your Majesty for your hospitality. We also welcome Your Majesty and all of you to visit our country if you have the opportunity to experience our local customs and culture."
Just like this, everyone chatted and laughed as they walked into the main hall. After bowing to the Emperor, they all sat down.
This time, Hongyuan Emperor still ordered people to prepare a good seat closest to him for Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue. The Emperor of Jin and his wife, as well as the other princes, all had looks of jealousy on their faces.
