Chapter 987 Counterattack on the Princess

The dinner to see off the envoys from various countries was arranged in the front hall. Therefore, when Xiao Qichen also changed into formal clothes and took Qin Wansha with him in a chariot towards the front hall, except for the emperor and them, there was no one at the dinner party. Everyone is almost here.

Sitting in his seat, Tuoba Xingcan, who thought that what he had done was flawless, had a decent smile on his face and accepted the compliments from the envoys below. This feeling of being the well-deserved number one in Tuoba Kingdom.

It wasn't until the emperor arrived that the envoys immediately turned around and shouted congratulations towards the entrance of the palace. Tuoba Xingcan felt a faint sense of disappointment in his heart.

The counselor behind Tuoba Xingshen immediately stepped forward and said in his ear: "Third Prince, the important matter has not yet been accomplished, so you must stay calm."

Calm down? Tuoba Xingshen didn't say anything, and stood up together with the others, and then knelt down towards the emperor who was surrounded by thousands of people and walking at the front - today, it was Xiao Qichen who dropped a big ball in front of him. Somersault is also a great day for Tuoba Xingshen to officially replace him!

"My son, please pay your respects to your father!"

Emperor Tuoba passed in front of Tuoba Xingshen, walked up two positions, as if he didn't see the still vacant position below him, sat down on the dragon chair in the middle, and then said: " Everyone, get up. Today is the day to bid farewell to the envoys from other countries. In the future, all of you will be married to our country. Tonight, everyone, please don’t be restrained and enjoy--"

"Father." Tuoba Xingshen interrupted the emperor's remarks about having a banquet.

Emperor Tuoba's eyes flashed with displeasure, but when he looked at his third son, he did not show it: "What's wrong with third son?"

Tuoba Xingshen was not afraid of Emperor Tuoba's possible displeasure at all. He pretended to be suggestive and said: "The prince's brother has not arrived yet, and it is too early to start the banquet. If we don't wait any longer, how can we wait for such a happy day today?" Can the protagonist be missing?"

It was not that Emperor Tuoba was unaware of the overt and covert struggles between his sons, but it was a pity that there would be no one else occupying the position of crown prince from the day his eldest son was born.

As a result, the emperor just pretended not to know and said: "No..."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived! The Princess of Abu Kingdom has arrived!" The voice from outside happened to sound at this moment.

Tuoba Xingshen's eyes flashed with joy, and he felt that he was applying eye drops to the other party, and the other party came. This was obviously God helping him!

Unexpectedly, Emperor Tuoba did not mention this at all, but looked at the door of the palace with a smile.

Behind him, a eunuch stepped forward and whispered something to Emperor Tuoba.

Emperor Tuoba's eyes flashed with surprise, but then he gently nodded and made the eunuch retreat again.

At this time, the other envoys and princesses also stood up from their respective positions, including Tuoba Xingshen, who had to stand up and salute to greet him because of his lower status than Xiao Qichen.

However, when he thought that Xiao Qichen was about to fall into trouble at his hands, Tuoba Xingshen surprisingly did not find this ceremony that difficult. He only bent down and made a half salute and said: "My brother, please give your regards to the Crown Prince!"

As a result, when Tuoba Xingcan raised his head again, the smile on his face suddenly sank.

I saw Xiao Qichen, dressed in a red and black crown prince's dress, walking in with his arm around a stunning woman beside him.

The woman's dress is also the same color as Xiao Qichen's, and the style is more noble and majestic. The fiery red phoenix bird on her head makes her overall temperament even more dazzling, and is incomparable with the person beside her. When Xiao Qichen walks together, their aura and appearance can be said to complement each other.

Tuoba Xingshen's face immediately turned terrible. Emperor Tuoba's eyes flashed with amusement, and he didn't say much about Xiao Qichen's move of directly bringing Qin Wansha to the high platform.

"Son, please pay your respects to your father." As the crown prince, Xiao Qichen paid half a courtesy to the emperor.

Qin Wansha also followed Xiao Qichen and did the courtesy of the Abu Kingdom: "Ablikun sends greetings to His Majesty Emperor Tuoba."

Emperor Tuoba glanced at Qin Wansha with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, and then looked at Xiao Qichen: "Take a seat." He didn't say much, but the curvature of his lips widened a bit.

Xiao Qichen naturally pulled Qin Wansha to sit down, ignoring the empty space below the stairs and above the princess seat on the right.

By this time, everyone had arrived, and Emperor Tuoba once again called for a banquet.

Immediately, the dancers and the servants in the royal kitchen who had prepared the dishes started busy, and the whole hall immediately became lively.

Emperor Tuoba took the lead in raising his glass, and everyone below also raised their glasses in cooperation, speaking to Emperor Tuoba with auspicious words.

Emperor Tuoba had long been accustomed to this, and his expression was as usual. The other envoys even showed their special skills, trying to use the last moment to gain favor for their country in front of Emperor Tuoba.

At the very least - the position of the Crown Princess can no longer be occupied, and there are still spaces for the two concubines!

The envoys couldn't help but look at Xiao Qichen and Qin Wansha. It was obvious that all the envoys knew which country's princess had occupied the position of the crown princess.

Some were jealous, and some were happy. The envoys from various countries smiled on their faces, but had different thoughts. In fact, the same was true for the princesses.

Accepting everyone's kind or jealous looks, Qin Wansha's face remained as usual, and from time to time she would pick up her chopsticks and use some of the dishes Xiao Qichen had given her.

Until Tuoba Xingcan, who was unwilling to accept it, suddenly raised his head and said to Xiao Qichen: "I have heard long ago that Princess Abu has won the favor of the royal brother. Today, when I saw it, it turned out to be true. She is indeed a stunning beauty. She doesn't need to do anything to just take care of other people." The princesses competed with each other, but it’s just the emperor’s brother. Today’s banquet is to ‘send off’ envoys from other countries. It’s a bit inappropriate for you to treat him so specially. It’s hard to satisfy other princesses and envoys, right?”

Tuoba Xingshen's words had a clear meaning. After he finished speaking, he deliberately glanced at Emperor Tuoba. In fact, his original intention was to remind Emperor Tuoba that there was something wrong with Qin Wansha's clothes. After all, Today's dinner is to 'shock' the envoys of those countries, isn't it? !

Unexpectedly, Emperor Tuoba just pretended not to hear it and drank wine by himself. Tuoba Xingcan's brows immediately frowned.

Xiao Qichen smiled: "The third emperor brother is too worried. All the envoys and princesses came here just for the sake of marriage. It's a pity that there is only one crown prince and concubine. Now the envoys and others are leaving. No matter what, we should make a decision and show it. The Third Emperor's brother is still young, and after a while, when there are people around him, he will understand."
