Thinking that Jiang Shang was helping herself and Lan Ting by standing up now, and she couldn't start a fight with him here either emotionally or rationally, so she glanced at him with no expression on her face. She said this to someone who wanted to kill her.
It's pretty good, at least she didn't ask Lan Ting to become Jiang Shang.
Jiang Shang met her gaze and nodded to her, indicating that it was a trivial matter. He looked at her with a vague look, as if he had something to say.
Manmiao glanced at him and then turned to look at Hua Feng. She and Jiang Shang had nothing to say. They were already in trouble like this. How could they meet and let go of their grudges with a smile?
When Hua Feng came forward to speak, Manmiao was surprised. Even Lan Ting and Jiang Shang looked at each other in confusion, wondering why Hua Feng would help Manmiao. Considering the unpleasantness Hua Feng had with Manmiao last time, it was really surprising.
It's hard to imagine that Hua Feng would be willing to help.
Envoys from various countries are sent on behalf of their own countries, and every word and deed represents the wishes of their master. Such an obvious behavior of taking sides made other envoys present and the dignitaries of the Blue Kingdom begin to reconsider their attitude towards Lan Ting.
Lan Ting laughed a few times, pulled Man Miao to sit in his seat, and said to Captain Song, "Since I want to choose a good tree to live in, I will not force anyone to do anything. I will carry Miss Song into the noon gate someday."
When the time comes, I will definitely give you a generous gift."
The meaning of sowing discord in this sentence is very explicit. Only the queen is qualified to be carried into the palace from the Noon Gate, and she must be established as a queen after the emperor ascends the throne. Anyone who has become a queen from a crown prince is not eligible. Lan Ting
This statement made it clear that the emperor would depose Empress Xu from her maternal uncle's family and appoint Song Ying from the Song family as his queen.
With a smile on his lips, Lan Ting watched with satisfaction as everyone in the Xu family and Song family changed their expressions. Even Queen Mother Xu's face was covered in blue and white, and her stern eyes kept looking back and forth at her niece and Song Ying.
The people of the Xu family have long been on guard against the Song family. They mainly want to lure the Song family. They don't want to be replaced by the Song family at all. And if the Song family doesn't want to be replaced, there is something wrong.
When the emperor and Song Ying were together, he made Song Ying the queen's dreams and promises countless times. How could Song Ying be willing to relent at this point?
Everyone's eyes fell on the emperor, wanting to see how the emperor would express his position. Lan Ting's attitude was very clear. If you want it, I will package it and give it to you. It's up to you whether you can take it or not.
At this time, the emperor shrank, raised the cup in his hand, and said loudly and cheerfully, "Envoys from various countries gathered in Canglan today. I would like to toast you all."
Lan Ting raised his glass with a sneer, and everyone raised their glasses together. On the surface, there was a sound of praise and congratulations, but secretly, their impression of the emperor was lowered a bit.
According to Man Miao's idea, the emperor would have to fight Lan Ting at this time, otherwise it would be a shame to lose. With so many people watching, the blow to morale would be invisible but the most fatal.
Lan Ting was able to do it, and his attitude was very clear from the beginning. Do you want to snatch it? I will give it to you. It depends on whether you can pick it up.
If the emperor adopts a posture of saying that if you dare to give it to me, I will accept it, maybe he can save the situation, but he probably has not thought about how to deal with the relationship between the Xu family and the Song family after the matter is completed.
I planned to mediate after the matter was completed, but I didn't expect to be provoked by Lan Ting in public. I didn't know what to do and could only choose to avoid it.
Manmei shook her head secretly, the emperor was pitiful to be honest.
When he was a child, the emperor's grandfather didn't think he was a person and devoted himself to cultivating his uncle Lan Ting. He was terrified every day, fearing that the emperor would issue an edict to abolish the grandson's position. Finally, after his grandfather died, he became the emperor and took charge of the government.
They were his mother and uncle, and it was his uncle who held the real power. The Xu family and Lan Ting were fighting to the death, and he could only watch from the side.
It has only been two years since he took office, and his wings have not yet fully matured. He has almost no experience in political struggle. He is far from the level of Lan Ting, who has been supported by the old emperor since he was a child. He seems to be very majestic on weekdays.
When things are compared, one can immediately see their superiority.
Families like the Song family also wanted to help him because he was easy to control. Now that he is so useless, I don't know whether to be happy or disappointed.
Seeing that the emperor avoided the topic, a smile appeared on the corner of Empress Xu's mouth. Song Ying's face was as white as a dead person. She looked at the emperor in disbelief, biting her lower lip, and her sleeves were almost torn by her.
The chamberlain clapped her hands, and a group of gorgeously dressed singers and dancers came forward to perform a dance. It was the coldest month of winter, and they were wearing very thin clothes. They were all made of tulle clothes, which made them feel very cold. They danced in a group dance. To be honest,
This kind of mediocre dance is really nothing interesting. There are few movements and it is very simple. It mainly follows the rhythm.
Good wine and delicious food were served one after another, and people began to make toasts. The atmosphere became lively. It seemed like what happened just now had never happened.
There were quite a few people coming to Lan Ting to propose a toast, and many of them who planned to wait and see became a bit more enthusiastic. Women from aristocratic families began to come to propose a toast to Lan Ting.
After dealing with them, Lan Ting stood up and walked towards the envoys' area. He walked to Jiang Shang's table first. Jiang Shang raised his glass in a friendly manner. Lan Ting glanced at Man Miao sitting at his table and said to Jiang Shang, "
Although we are enemies in some aspects, for now, we will gain more from cooperation."
Jiang Shang stood up and said calmly, "Business matters need to be dealt with first, private matters will be discussed after the official matters are taken care of."
The two clinked their glasses in a tacit understanding and drank it all in one gulp.
When Lan Ting walked to Hua Feng, Miao Miao's heart skipped a beat.
Calculating the time, it is estimated that Jiang Shang came here just after being escorted back to Jiangzuo by his father. Excluding the time spent on the road back and forth, there was just enough time for him to settle down with Chu Xiner before he had to leave for Lan Country.
Manmiao didn't think she was so important that Jiang Shang traveled thousands of miles to hunt her down and silence her. As long as she left, she wouldn't hinder Jiang Shang's ability to hide his beauty in the golden house. In ancient times, news was blocked. When Manmiao spread the news to Yue, Jiang Shang would have already
He has secured his position as the leader of the martial arts alliance.
Jiang Shang's visit this time is probably really for official business...
In the blink of an eye, he saw Hua Feng sitting at the table drinking alone, and his head suddenly hurt. No one had reached any agreement with Hua Feng. If something happened to Hua Feng, the only one who would be happy would be the emperor.
Hua Feng still looked at Lan Ting coldly as he approached. Lan Ting walked up to him and sat down next to him. He picked up the wine bottle on the table and filled Hua Feng with wine, "I didn't expect you this time.
Are you willing to help me? Does your prince have so much confidence in me?"
Hua Feng frowned and glanced at Lan Ting, who was familiar with him. He glanced at the full glass of wine and raised the glass, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not tell who he wanted to help. He only asked me to act according to the situation."
"Then thank you General Hua for supporting me." Lan Ting clinked his glass with him and drank it down in one gulp.
