A fine banquet was grandly arranged in the palace, and there was singing and dancing in the center of the hall. At a glance, princes and nobles from all walks of life were chatting, and the atmosphere was lively. But at this time, a report came from outside the palace, "Prince Ouyang Yu of Nanling
Please see His Majesty the Crown Prince——"
Murong Lian narrowed her eyes, put down the wine glass in her hand, and slowly tapped the golden chair beside her without saying a word.
Seeing that His Majesty the Crown Prince suddenly stopped having fun, everyone could not continue to care about themselves. They all stopped and waited for His Majesty the Crown Prince's signal.
The next second, Murong Lian waved her hand and said with a friendly smile: "Please come in, Prince Nanling. You don't have to be restrained. You will join me later to warmly welcome Prince Nanling from afar."
"It's His Majesty the Crown Prince!" After hearing this, everyone continued to have fun, drinking the fine offensive wine and admiring the graceful figure of the beauty. They were so unhappy.
Until Ouyang Yu walked in from outside the palace, the dancers in the center of the hall did not disperse. Without the order of His Majesty the Crown Prince, they could only keep dancing. However, the princes and nobles who were having fun stopped one after another and responded to His Majesty the Crown Prince's order.
He asked to welcome Ouyang Yu, but his attitude was perfunctory.
Ouyang Yu spared those sexy dancers without squinting, and stood unhurriedly in the center of the hall, spreading a powerful momentum invisibly, until everyone present was a little wary of him, he smiled slightly and said
She raised her lips and said, "Murong Lian, won't you give me a chair to sit on?"
Oh my god, calling His Majesty the Crown Prince by his first name, even the Crown Prince of Nanling is too arrogant. Besides, Nanling is just a captive country now. How can it be compared with the powerful Xilan? Naturally, some of the princes of the two countries are noble and some are low.
In their eyes, Murong Lian was naturally the noble Prince of Xilan, while Ouyang Yu was the lowly Prince of Nanling. Wasn't there a clause in the armistice treaty in the North that required him, Ouyang Yu, to be a proton in the contract? This was simply a shame.
The face of the prince!
Murong Lian naturally remembered it, shook the wine glass in her hand, and waved calmly: "Come here, give Ouyang Yu a seat!"
Neither of them regarded the other as the prince, but Murong Lian obviously had the strength to do so, and Ouyang Yu was now trapped in the Xilan Palace and had no right to challenge him, Murong Lian, unless he was not afraid of Murong Lian and killed him in a rage.
He was taken out and beheaded
Could it be that Ouyang Yu had backup for being so unscrupulous? Everyone looked at each other in confusion
After Ouyang Yu sat down, he poured himself a glass of wine. After a few sips, he praised with a smile: "Prince Xilan really enjoys it. A beautiful woman with good wine, isn't it nice to be like this every day?"
Murong Lian smiled, and her tone did not contain a trace of a smile: "Where can I enjoy Ouyang Yu's pleasure more than you? The palace is the forest of wine and meat. Oh, by the way, I heard that the five-year war between the two countries in Nanling and North has finally ceased.
It was originally an unreasonable request for Prince Nanling to act as a hostage before we agreed to a ceasefire, but we suddenly and inexplicably compromised. It’s really weird, don’t you think so?”
Everyone's expressions were mocking. Ouyang Yu would be furious if such a scandal was exposed in public. His Majesty the Crown Prince was too outspoken. However, those who knew Murong Lian knew that he was not outspoken, but also had many strategies. They did not know that he was so outspoken.
Is this to test Ouyang Yu, or does it have other intentions...
Sure enough, Ouyang Yu lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time, as if he was asked about his pain and could not refute, but Murong Lian only narrowed her eyes, not proud, but continued to say calmly: "And that Ouyang who is only thirteen years old?
Isn’t it a bit ridiculous that the princess was given to the Ninth Prince as a concubine by Nanling? Even if there is no one else, the young princess should not be given as a hostage to the Ninth Prince. However, this is the only way Nanling can protect himself.
means……"
Before he finished speaking, Ouyang Yu directly smashed the wine glass in his hand with a cold expression. When he let go, there was only dust flying from his hand, and he suddenly smiled indifferently: "Prince Xilan knows what equivalence is.
Exchange?"
Exchange of equal value? All the princes and nobles looked at each other, not knowing why, they had never even heard of it.
Murong Lian's eyes deepened, as if she didn't know what he was paying attention to. She snorted coldly: "Oh? I'm all ears!"
"Nothing in the world comes for free. If you want to get something, you must pay something of equal value in exchange for Nanling's soldiers and people. The sacrifice of the emperor's sister is valuable, and she will feel extremely happy for this."
Proud, similarly, I am also proud of her.”
For some reason, what the woman said to him appeared in Ouyang Yu's mind at this moment, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth unconsciously, making the cold and murderous Ouyang Yu feel a little warmer in front of everyone.
Murong Lian, who was sitting on the high seat, wanted to distinguish the truth from the smile, but for a long time she couldn't see any trace of falsehood. She raised her eyebrows in confusion, "Exchange of equal value... is quite new. I didn't expect that the Prince of Nanling was not as cold-blooded and murderous as the rumors say.
This prince is also surprised. I wonder what the purpose of coming to my prince's palace today is?"
"I'm disturbing the prince's elegant mood." Although Ouyang Yu said it sincerely, his tone was not sincere. He raised his handsome eyebrows and said, "Then I will tell you what I have to say directly. I came here today to inform the prince of the whereabouts of a man. I wonder if the prince is interested in knowing him.
?”
Murong Lian looked at him calmly, but she was thinking about who it would be. If it wasn't a big shot, Ouyang Yuduan would not come in person, knowing that he would be humiliated. He must be someone very important to him.
figure
So he put down the wine glass and said with a calm expression: "There are not many people who can interest me, especially in Xilan. Is there anything that you, Ouyang Yu, know first but I don't know?"
Ouyang Yu thought that although Murong Lian had many strategies and a strong military and wealth, there was an inviolable arrogance in his bones. This was only possessed by powerful people, but it would also be his most fatal weakness.
A strange light flashed through his narrow eyes, so fast that no one could see it. It was a powerful and confident strategist, but Ouyang Yu barely spit out a person's name: "The Ninth Prince of the North"
As soon as he finished speaking, Murong Lian tried his best to conceal his calmness, but the strong excitement in his heart still made him knock over the wine glass on the table, "You... mean the Ninth Prince?"
Ouyang Yu glanced at him with no trace of joy or anger. She had already decided that he would be the Ninth Prince's rival in this life. He was so arrogant and had only lost to one person in his life. How could he remain indifferent...
