Everyone stood up in shock, and then knelt down to salute.

The Empress Dowager of the Northern Qi Dynasty has not been involved in world affairs for many years. Even when she was the empress, she rarely interfered in court affairs, and sometimes she only gave a few words in private.

Only very few people have the opportunity to receive advice from her.

When I came to Taihe Palace today, I didn't have the posture of the Queen Mother. I just called a maid and came, just like before.

Many people remembered that when she was young, she bravely entered the Taihe Palace alone and shouted that she wanted to divorce her husband.

After so many years, she still remains as graceful as many of her courtiers have grown old.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Feng Mingwei smiled and said: "If I didn't come, the celebration dinner would have been turned into a denouncement meeting by you."

Murong Yu supported her, "It's all some misunderstandings."

Everyone knew in their hearts that she came here because of the Feng family.

"Whether the Murong family has the final say in the Northern Qi Empire or your Feng family has the final say."

"Everyone, I'm sorry, today's farce is a family matter of our Feng family and Xiao family."

Feng Jin said: "Xi'er has caused you trouble again."

Among them, King Luo of Luo City drew his sword to kill the minister who had accepted him and uttered arrogant words.

Feng Jin didn't mean that, it was really the trouble that got out of hand this time.

These people are all ministers of the feudal king's land.

Several ministers knelt down together, sweating profusely.

After Murong Yu became angry, the other vassal kings quickly expressed their opinions, saying that they were lax in their duties and would be severely punished when they returned.

Someone said: "This is not a farce. Princess Feng cut down the marriage decree in front of everyone. This is contempt for the imperial power!"

A silver light flashed in front of King Luo's eyes, and then he realized that she had a silver sword in her hand, and she cut the sword in his hand directly.

In Northern Qi, it may not be that easy to destroy the foundation of the Feng family.

It's a pity that the occasion is not right.

But suddenly a figure appeared in front of him like a ghost, bang!

"That's right! How can a marriage granted by an imperial edict be child's play? When she said she wanted to reconcile, she didn't take the Xiao family seriously. Isn't this telling us that your Feng family overwhelms the imperial power and that the daughter of the Feng family can do whatever she wants? "

"Fourth brother, you don't think of me as my sister when you say that." Feng Mingwei said pretending to be angry.

"My mother is the Queen Mother of the Northern Qi Dynasty. How can I allow you to be so presumptuous!"

Murong Yu's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he shouted angrily, "Shut up!"

"Wei Bao." Feng Jin and the others walked up to her and surrounded her.

Tired of living, right?
The emperor was furious, and everyone's backs ran cold, and the hall was instantly silent.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Feng Mingwei arched her eyebrows and glanced sharply at the several vassal kings present.

"King Luo, being so angry can hurt your liver. I don't want to see blood today." Feng Mingwei suddenly stopped him.

Then an invisible aura shocked the entire audience.

The minister who was kneeling on the ground was so frightened that he fainted.

The faces of the other feudal lords all changed slightly. Looking at Feng Mingwei, they didn't know she had such skills. They couldn't feel how deep her inner strength was.

And where did she get the sword in her hand?

Obviously she didn't bring weapons when she came to Taihe Palace.

In a blink of an eye, the silver sword disappeared.

This is what scares people.

Maybe she could come out quietly that day and take their heads.

Everyone looked horrified, but Feng Mingwei smiled with a very gentle smile, and patted King Luo on the shoulder, "I said it was just a family matter, how did it escalate to contempt of the imperial power?"

"Is the wine today too intoxicating, are you all drunk?"

King Luo's face turned pale, thinking that this woman... was a little scary. He wanted to stay away from her, but he couldn't lose face. How could he, a majestic man, be afraid of a woman?
In the blink of an eye, Feng Mingwei took out a silver needle and pricked a Luocheng official awake, "I thought you were fine, sir!"

"I... I... I thank the Queen Mother for your concern." The minister got up and knelt on the ground, knocking his head on the floor and not daring to raise his head to look directly at Feng Mingwei's face.

"What is your name, sir?"

"My...my name is Wei Qi'an."

Feng Mingwei smiled and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Wei. Just now you spoke sharply, which shows that you are a brave and loyal minister! But why is King Luo so anxious to kill you?"

"Did you do something shady, or maybe you took advantage of King Luo?"

"Look and tell me, I won't tell anyone else."

Look at the amazing behavior of the Queen Mother.

Several vassal kings were dumbfounded. Compared to the little emperor, the queen mother was more coping!
"The Queen Mother..." King Luo panicked and quickly gave Mr. Wei a wink to tell him not to talk nonsense.

Mr. Wei wanted to pretend to be dead, but the silver needle in the Queen Mother's hand refused to agree. It always hurt after being pricked. He was in a dilemma and wished he could be hacked to death by the prince. "The Queen Mother, spare your life. It's my fault. I spoke arrogantly."

King Luo quickly said: "Yes, yes, Queen Mother, please calm down. I don't think the Feng family despises the imperial power."

Feng Mingwei glanced at him, "Why do you always say that the Queen Mother should calm down? I'm not angry. We are all a family. Prince Luo doesn't need to be nervous."

"Even if you say that the Feng family despises the imperial power, I will not agree with you."

"It's Xiaoxi's fault that the marriage decree was cut off, but you escalated the problem too seriously. It might lead to internal fighting. That's your fault."

"All the vassal princes are members of our Northern Qi family. It is not ethical to instigate fighting among your own people. Princes, don't you think so?"

All vassal kings: "..."

"The Queen Mother is wise, everything you said is right." Several people said in unison.

I don't know how arrogant I am usually, but why do I behave like a grandson in front of the Queen Mother?
Zhou Yi and others stared with wide eyes, unable to believe it, and suspected that the feudal kings in front of them were all fakes.

Are you feeling particularly timid today?

Feng Mingwei stepped forward and patted King Luo on the shoulder again, looking left and right, "The vassal princes are not here today! Where are the king and the palace prince?"

"They... didn't come." King Luo forced a smile.

"That's a real pity, but it doesn't matter. You guys are here. It's alright. When the banquet is over, several princes will come to Fengyi Palace. I and the Supreme Emperor will personally entertain them."

"We are going to the Xianle Building in the Imperial Capital for dinner. I have asked someone to reserve a private room. We will see you there then."

The vassal kings were really unable to resist, and they all looked at Murong Yu, intending to ask for help.

Murong Yu felt happy, thinking that these old foxes would also have this day, hahaha!
Feng Mingwei briefly greeted everyone and felt that this banquet was still too rigorous and not lively enough.

"I will hold a new celebration banquet in the next two palaces. I and the Supreme Emperor will reward you individually for your merits."

"Today is just a family banquet for everyone. You can continue eating and drinking without being formal. Let's go take care of some household matters first."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Feng Mingwei took Xiao Ning, Ye Huang, Feng Mingxi and others to the side hall.

Entering the main hall, Feng Mingxi, Xiao Ning, and Yehuang all knelt down.

Feng Mingwei asked Ye Huang to get up, "Xier, do you know where you went wrong?"

"I know, this is my own matter and shouldn't be dealt with at the banquet."

Yehuang felt heartbroken when he saw her being criticized by everyone, "Master, Xi'er is drunk, don't blame her."

"It's my fault." Only then did Xiao Ning realize that Feng Mingxi was serious about Heli. He always felt that he still had a chance.

Feng Mingwei looked at him, "Then where did you go wrong?"

Xiao Ning clenched his fist and released it after a while, "I was wrong because I shouldn't have forced it."

"Back then, I went to the palace to ask my grandfather, and then I went to the emperor to get the imperial decree to grant the marriage. This marriage was forced upon me from the beginning."

"I thought that as long as the two of us became a couple, we could change Xi'er's mind. It was me who forced my own thoughts on her. It's all my fault..."

Ye Huang and Feng Mingxi were both stunned.

"It's not the eldest princess..." Feng Mingxi looked at Murong Yun.

"My mother helped me take the last step." Xiao Ning lowered his eyes and his eyes darkened, "I found someone to collect evidence of the Ye family's rebellion and gave it to my grandfather."

Feng Mingwei was surprised now and couldn't help but look at her son, "Dabao, do you know about this?"

Murong Yu held his forehead, "The emperor's grandfather came to me and said that he could not let Xi'er marry Yehuang. Originally, I didn't want to interfere in Xi'er's marriage. After all, my uncle would be angry if he knew about it."

"But the emperor's grandfather was adamant. He said that he was here to grant the marriage and asked me not to interfere. If the Feng family came to the door, they would find excuses to get rid of it."

Murong Yun didn't know why his grandfather did this at the beginning. He had already left the court affairs alone. He thought that the marriage was granted out of love for his grandson. Because Murong Yun was his daughter, it was understandable that he would do this for his daughter and grandson. .

But with such a firm attitude, he was not afraid that his mother would get angry and argue with him.

He felt strange, "It was only later that Xiao Ning came to see me that I understood the reason."

"The first time Xi'er came to see me, I showed her the evidence."

Tell her that the evidence is in the hands of Emperor Taiwu. Even if it is him, once the evidence is presented to the court, what he has to do as the emperor is to get rid of all those who are detrimental to Northern Qi.

At that time, if the Feng family wants to protect Yehuang, it will also involve them, and many people's lives will be involved.

If she did not accept the imperial decree to marry Xiao Ning, not only would something happen to Yehuang, but the entire Ye clan would become the second Sang clan and be punished by the nine clans.

Then Feng Mingxi agreed.

Because she didn't want the Feng family and Yehuang to know about this, she chose not to say anything and only told Feng Jin. She didn't want the Feng family to be accused of disobeying the imperial edict.

He also didn't want the Feng family to disobey the emperor's order because of him.

Because she agreed to marry herself, the Feng family didn't understand and didn't know how to persuade her, so they had no choice but to support her.

Feng Mingxi was shocked and looked at Xiao Ning. She didn't know that he had collected these evidences and handed them over to Emperor Taiwu long ago.

She only thought that Emperor Taiwu had found out on his own before granting the marriage, and Xiao Ning was innocently implicated. (End of chapter)
