Chapter 172 (1/2)
Mu Zhihuan gave a meal to his men, and then pulled out a smiling face: ”when the time comes, I will naturally tell the empress. Didn't the empress say she would decide for me and let the emperor marry me?”
The queen knew that she probably didn't want to say this, so she didn't force: ”well, when you feel the time is ripe, tell me.”
Mu Zhihuan nodded: ”then Zhihuan first thanked the queen for her accomplishment.”
”Tell me what else to do.”
The empress raised her eyebrows and looked at her appearance in the copper mirror. She was very satisfied: ”she is worthy of being the boss of the powder shop. This skill can't be compared with the concubines in the palace.”
Mu Zhi smiled and thought she was praising herself.
After finishing up, mu Zhihuan followed the queen to the front hall. Here, mu Zhihuan saw that the banquet to meet the princess seemed to be particularly grand.
In addition to Gu Mingxuan, many princes also came. It seems that the emperor is determined to keep the princess.
Seeing that everyone was almost here, the emperor motioned the eunuch around him with his eyes. The eunuch immediately received the signal and took two steps forward and coughed twice to signal everyone to be quiet.
When everyone's eyes gathered on the emperor on the stage, the eunuch stepped back and stood behind the emperor.
The emperor got up slowly, walked forward for two steps, and then said in a low and intimidating voice: ”it is a happy event for Princess Ruoshui of Ningguo to come to Dayan to choose a son-in-law, which proves that there will be no more war and no more blood between Dayan and Ningguo from now on.”
The audience suddenly remembered the thunderous applause, and everyone was praising the emperor's wisdom.
The emperor raised his hand to signal the crowd to be quiet, and then continued: ”I hold this banquet today, not only to welcome our princess Ruoshui, but also to announce another happy event.”
Then the emperor turned his eyes to Mu Zhihuan. Mu Zhihuan standing behind the queen was stunned. Before she could react, he heard the emperor say:
”I believe everyone who knows a little about our great annihilation knows that we lost a prince many years ago. Now Huang Tian has lived up to his heart. A few years later, we finally found my son, the ten princes today.”
”Over the years, the prince has not only lived well, but also been raised very lively and cheerful. All this is due to the prince's adoptive mother, Miss mu Zhihuan.”
”So I'm here today to thank you for my prince. If Miss Mu doesn't have any requirements in the future, as long as I can do it, you can mention it.”
Mu Zhihuan didn't expect to come out. She cast her eyes on the queen. The queen smiled at her. It seems that the queen knew it long ago, so she invited her.
Originally, mu Zhihuan didn't want to appear in front of others. Now she was driven to the shelves. She had no choice but to step forward and give gifts to the Emperor:
”Zhihuan thanked the emperor here.”
The emperor seemed very happy. He waved his hand and motioned Mu Zhi to cheer up: ”ah, it's too polite to say thank you. I thank you for raising my son so well.”
As the emperor's voice fell, all the civil and military officials under the stage clapped their hands one after another, and congratulated the emperor on winning the prince.
The princess, who has been watching, slowly came forward at this time: ”Ruoshui has seen his majesty. Although Ruoshui is looking for a good marriage, Ruoshui has brought a gift from Ningguo to show his sincerity.”
When Ruoshui came to power, the ministers who were closer to her couldn't help but look stunned.
If the water wore a veil when she was below, she had taken off the veil to show her respect.
On a white and flawless face, her delicate facial features were instantly exposed. Coupled with her slender but concave convex figure, she was simply a peerless beauty.
