Chapter 2756: Present a gift
He would never let this situation happen, so he would never let go.
However, the current situation is very unfavorable to him, and he feels angry and endures it!
He suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly: "Your Majesty, in any case, the marriage between King Xian and the princess cannot be held without the consent of the Huaiyang Hou. Now the princess is my fiancée, and I will never give up. she."
Emperor Hongyuan said without a doubt: "The wedding date between the princess and the wise king has been set. On the twenty-eighth of this month, I have already spread all over the world and must not be changed. I will also invite the prince to come. I believe you can find another beautiful woman."
Seeing Emperor Hongyuan's tone so hard, Dongfang Wuxiang squeezed his fist fiercely, and a deep coldness flashed in his eyes.
The atmosphere in the hall became very embarrassing, and Xue Tianxiang hurriedly stepped up to make a round after seeing this.
She smiled softly: "The emperor, Prince Wuxiang came from afar. This banquet is specially organized for him. Why don't we sit down and talk about the wine and talk slowly?"
There was Xuetianxiang to ease the atmosphere, and a smile appeared on Emperor Hongyuan's face.
He looked at Dongfang Wuxiang and smiled and said, "Concubine Xue is right. Prince Wuxiang is a guest from afar. We will discuss the wedding later. Prince, I have prepared wine and food for you, singing and dancing, and you sit down. Taste the cuisine of my country of Chu, and feel the culture of my country of Chu. Come, give you a seat."
"Prince, second son, please here." The **** immediately came over and brought Dongfang Wuxiang into the table.
Seeing Emperor Hongyuan stepping down to himself, Dongfang Wuxiang also took a step back, and he politely said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, your majesty for your hospitality, it is a great honor for Wuxiang."
With that said, he took Nalanxuan and sat down.
Concubine Xue Gui hurriedly said: "Come on, let's sing and dance."
Concubine Xuegui finished, and the beautiful dancers filed in.
There was the sound of silk and bamboo in the stands, and along with the sound of silk and bamboo, the dancers stepped onto the stage and began to perform.
All of a sudden, there was a burst of music in the hall, singing and dancing.
At this time, Emperor Hongyuan picked up the wine glass in front of him and said to the people: "Everyone, Aiqing, welcome Prince Donglin to the State of Chu as a guest. We all offer him a glass first."
Everyone raised their wine glasses.
Dongfang Wuxiang stood up, raised the wine glass, and said politely: "Thank your majesty for your care, Wuxiang also wish your majesty good health and all the best. Your Majesty, Wuxiang first do it first!"
As he said, he drank the wine in his hand.
Emperor Hongyuan and others also raised their heads and drank.
After drinking this cup, everyone sat down, started drinking and eating, and chatting about wine, the atmosphere at the scene eased a lot.
After drinking three rounds, Dongfang Wuxiang suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your hospitality. Chu is a country of etiquette, and it is not impolite to come and go. In return, I want to give you another gift. "
As soon as these words came out, everyone stared at Dongfang Wuxiang vigilantly.
He gave the gift at the beginning, but now he wants to give it again. What does he want to do?
Emperor Hongyuan squinted his eyes shrewdly, and he could see at a glance that Dongfang Wuxiang had another profound meaning in this gift.
He didn't want to receive such a gift, so he said lightly: "The prince has already given me a lot of Donglin specialties, so I don't need to be polite."
Dongfang Wuxiang said, "Your Majesty treats me so lovingly, so that you can taste your country's fine wines and enjoy the peerless singing and dancing. Of course, you must offer a better gift to your Majesty, and please don't refuse."
Seeing Dongfang Wuxiang persisting in this way, Emperor Hongyuan said lightly: "Okay! Then I will open my eyes!"
Dongfang Wuxiang smiled and clapped his hands, "Come here, present the present."
After he finished speaking, a few warriors wearing Donglin costumes walked in outside the hall, and the warrior headed among them was holding a long and narrow brocade box in his hands.
Everyone was stunned, presumably the gift was in this brocade box!
This brocade box is so long and narrow, don’t know what’s in it?
At this time, the warrior had respectfully raised the brocade box in front of Dongfang Wuxiang.
Then he knelt down on one knee and said, "Your Highness, the gift has arrived."
Dongfang Wuxiang swept at the crowd, and then said, "Abu, show me the gift!"
"Yes, Your Highness." Abu finished speaking, stood up, and handed the brocade box to a warrior behind him.
Then, he gently opened the brocade box, and a silver light shot out from the brocade box.
When everyone saw the silver light, they stood up one after another, wondering what was in this brocade box.
At this time, Abu had already taken out the contents of the brocade box respectfully. Everyone looked at it and found that it was a cold-glowing fine iron sword.
Abu put the sword flat in his hand, turned around, and slowly faced Emperor Hongyuan.
When Emperor Hongyuan saw this sword, he was puzzled, "Prince, what sword is this?"
Dongfang Wuxiang raised his eyebrows. He pointed to the sword and said with great pride: "Your Majesty, this is called the Dragon Sparrow Sword. It was made by Zhong Zi, the most powerful swordsmith in our country..."
Zongzi?
When Yun Ruoyue heard this, she couldn't help but chuckle. How come someone's name is Zongzi?
Is it sweet dumplings or salty dumplings?
"I don't know what your Excellency is laughing at?" Yun Ruoyue was smiling, Dongfang Wuxiang's cold voice sounded.
She quickly raised her eyes and met Dongfang Wuxiang's sullen eyes.
Only then did she realize that the audience was so quiet, only she let out a burst of laughter.
She was about to brag, but she laughed, which seemed a bit hurtful.
Chu Xuanchen sat on the side and looked at Yun Ruoyue with a smile.
Seeing the scene a little embarrassing, Yun Ruoyue said hurriedly: "Um, prince, I didn't laugh at you. I just thought of a kind of delicacy, and couldn't help laughing, sorry!"
As he said this, the others also laughed.
"Good food?" Dongfang Wuxiang's face had become black charcoal.
How dare this woman laugh at Master Zhongzi's name?
Who is this woman? Who gave her the courage?
He raised his eyes and saw the woman sitting next to Chu Xuanchen, who was still looking at her dozingly.
It suddenly dawned on him that this should be Yun Ruoyue, the world-renowned genius doctor.
Unexpectedly, Yun Ruoyue laughed at him.
Very good, this woman is very courageous!
Emperor Hongyuan wanted to laugh when he heard the word "Zhongzi".
Especially when Dongfang Wuxiang raised his head and said the name seriously, he really wanted to laugh, but he managed to endure it.
He believed that everyone in the room wanted to laugh, but everyone was bearing it for the sake of Dongfang Wuxiang's face. Unexpectedly, Yun Ruoyue laughed and laughed so much that he was very relieved.
He said: "Prince, what kind of sword is this, you continue to introduce it to us."
Dongfang Wuxiang took a deep breath, staring at the sword, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is called the Dragon Sparrow Sword. It was made by Zhong Zi, the most powerful swordsmith in our country. "
As he said, he glanced at Yun Ruoyue from the corner of the eye, then coughed lightly, and cut to the topic, "Because of the rapid advancement of iron smelting and forging in my country in recent years, the master can create this new type of peerless sword. It. It cuts iron like mud, blows hairs and breaks hair. It is a hundred times more powerful than ordinary swords. It is a real weapon of a magic weapon, a magic weapon with a king, and only such a sword is worthy of your majesty, so I will dedicate it to your majesty ."
