Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 68
Xiang Junhao was so happy that he invited King Chen and a few of his ministers to a banquet that night.

After several rounds of changing cups, he deliberately asked the eunuch: "Is today's wine the new green plum wine from Yangcheng?"

The eunuch lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, it is precisely the Yangcheng prefect who sent someone to the palace early this morning."

Xiang Junhao nodded: "Call Princess Yingxue. This girl loves this wine the most. She just happened to have two glasses with me today."

"Yes!"

The eunuch was about to leave, but Concubine Zheng stopped her with a voice.

"Wait a minute!"

Xiang Junhao looked at her pretending to be confused.

Concubine Zheng smiled: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid Princess Yingxue won't come."

"Why is this?"

"I heard from someone that Princess Yingxue hugged a man in public at the busiest market in Yongchun City yesterday.

Nowadays, she is criticized in every possible way both inside and outside the palace.

How could she, a boudoir girl, have the nerve to show up in front of everyone again? "

Xiang Junhao slammed the wine cup on the table, looking extremely angry.

"Is there such a thing? She is a princess of a country, but she still knows what etiquette, justice and shame are!"

Concubine Zheng pretended to be consoling: "Your Majesty, please calm down.

The princess has reached the age of marriage, and there are no girls left.

According to my concubine, it would be better to find the man and see if he is willing to take responsibility for yesterday's behavior.

If he is willing, it will be a good relationship.

If he doesn't want to..."

Xiang Junhao deliberately looked angry.

"If he doesn't want to, I will punish that careless girl!"

Murong Chen watched the two people singing and singing with cold eyes, and felt even more contempt for Xiang Junhao in his heart.

I just want to marry my daughter to me, why bother with so much effort.The dignified emperor of a country didn't even have the courage to openly negotiate terms with his powerful enemy.

Such a Chu State, even if it is not targeted by me, will be captured by others in the future.

Xiang Junhao saw Murong Chen drinking wine calmly and looked at Concubine Zheng.

Concubine Zheng hurriedly gave her nephew Zheng Xuan a wink.

Zheng Xuan knew his mission today and was extremely nervous early in the morning.

According to rumors, King Beiyanchen kills people without blinking an eye, and exposes his private affairs with the princess in public. Will he find an opportunity to kill himself in the future to vent his anger?

Concubine Zheng was slightly annoyed when her nephew didn't move, and gave him another unkind look.

Seeing the arrow on the string, Zheng Xuan had no choice but to fire it. He made up his mind, walked to the palace, and knelt down with a thump.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, calm down... I was in the market yesterday... yesterday... that... that man..."

That man was not a man from the market, but His Highness King Bei Yanchen, who was talented and distinguished. It was natural for such a good couple to win the heart of Princess Yingxue.

Just such a short sentence, his aunt repeated it to him three times, and he repeated it several times to himself, but he still said it like this.

Zheng Xuan's back gradually became wet.

A hint of sneer appeared on Murong Chen's lips.

Then, he brushed his sleeves, put back all his emotions, and stood up again like a humble and courteous gentleman.

"Your Majesty, the person who was at the market with Princess Yingxue yesterday was none other than me!"

There was a burst of exclamation at the banquet.

People who had known about it for a long time did not expect that Murong Chen would admit the matter so easily.

And those who didn't know were even more stunned.

Xiang Junhao was a little surprised when he saw Murong Chen openly and proactively recognizing him in front of everyone.

But he looked very serious: "King Chen, does he know that the most important thing for my daughter's family in Chu country is the word honor?
Once her reputation is ruined, no one will marry her again in the future, even if she is a princess! "
