"Could it be that the person beside Princess Red Lotus is Qin Mu? He really did have some ability…to actually be able to subdue Red Lotus 'unruly temperament.”
"Yes, I was also wondering about this. Seeing that Qin Mu had some tricks up his sleeve, and furthermore…he had a dignified appearance and was also a talent recommended by the prime minister, this marriage must have been decided.”
"Sigh…what do you know…don't forget that our Han Country still has General Ji. He often goes against the prime minister, who knows…this time, he might stir things up.”
"Shh, be careful. Do you want to die? How dare you talk about General Ji like that? Be careful not to let his minions find out and casually accuse you so that you won't see tomorrow.”
As soon as he said this, they immediately felt a chill down their spines. They hurriedly changed the topic, and some even kept silent. It was obvious how influential Ji Wuye was in the court.
However, they didn't know that Qin Mu had heard every single word they said. He then turned his head to look at Princess Red Lotus who was sitting beside him and asked with a light smile," Ji Wuye's hands and eyes are all over the court, except for Minister Zhang? No one could contend with him?”
"No!" Princess Red Lotus shook her head and narrowed her eyes into crescents. She tilted her head and asked suspiciously," Why are you asking this all of a sudden?”
"Nothing, I was just asking." Qin Mu replied.
Although Ji Wuye's strength had yet to be revealed, he knew clearly that Ji Wuye was the leader of Night.
The night sky was formed by the Four Vicious Generals and the Hundred Birds. The Four Vicious Generals were divided into the Marquis of the Pure Blood Robes, the Jade Tiger on the Stone, the Blue Sea Tide Demoness, and the Guest in the Coir Raincoat under the Moon.'
The Hundred Birds were killers named after various birds. They were directly under the command of the General's Estate and had trained many killers.
Moreover, Ji Wuye had a cooperative relationship with the mysterious Network.
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.
He had to figure out the other party's trump card in advance so that it would be beneficial for him to 'fight' in the future... He deeply knew that it was only a matter of time before Ji Wuye became his enemy.
"Tsk." At this moment, Red Lotus pouted and asked with interest," Although we've only known each other for a short time, my intuition tells me that…you're a very mysterious person. I've never seen through you…You definitely wouldn't casually ask such a boring question.”
As he spoke, his eyes flickered with brilliant light as he stared at Qin Mu with a smile.
However, Qin Mu's eyes were calm and revealed a smile, which made Princess Red Lotus give up. She sighed and said coquettishly," Just tell me."”
It had to be said that women were very gossipy.
Qin Mu laughed helplessly." You heard what they said…The Prime Minister is matchmaking for me, and Ji Wuye and the Prime Minister are like fire and water. I believe…Ji Wuye will make things difficult for me at the banquet later, so I have to find out.”
"If you anger me later and accidentally kill him, wouldn't your Han Country lose a great general?”
Although his voice was very soft, the officials sitting beside him could vaguely hear it.
As his voice fell, the officials stood up one after another and rolled up their official robes to move to the side. They maintained a certain distance from Qin Mu, afraid of provoking unnecessary trouble.
Anger you?
Kill the general?
This…was simply courting death!
Furthermore, the way they looked at Qin Mu was as if they were staring at a lunatic or someone who was about to die.
Qin Mu didn't care about this and continued to slowly taste the wine.
How could this wine be an ordinary item if it was brought to the banquet by King Han?
After drinking it, it was sweet and delicious. The warm current rushed straight to his throat, making him feel extremely comfortable.
When Red Lotus, who was beside him, heard this, she was stunned on the spot. She looked at Qin Mu in shock and asked word by word," You know martial arts? What realm have you reached?"
"Take a guess." Qin Mu smiled mysteriously.
Hong Lian's eyes darted around as she guessed," First-class expert?”
Qin Mu smiled and didn't say anything.
"Connate realm?"
…………
" Spiritual Martial Realm?"
………………
Just as Hong Lian was guessing, a shrill voice that sounded like a male duck came from outside." General Ji has arrived!”
"Zhang Xiangguo has arrived!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the officials present stood up and bowed back. Only when Ji Wuye and Zhang Kedi sat down did the officials return to their seats.
However, Ji Wuye was sitting on the left side of the throne, while the opening was on the right side.
During this period, the left was the most respected.
It was obvious that Ji Wuye was one of the most powerful people in the world, and it could also be seen that Ji Wuye's power was huge.
The moment Ji Wuye sat down, his eyes were like swords, shooting straight at Qin Mu who was sitting not far away. He laughed in a rough voice," Zhang Xiangguo, this kid... I think he's just so-so. What kind of extraordinary ability does he have to make you praise him so much?"”
These words were like fresh meat thrown into a pack of wolves, causing the officials standing behind Ji Wuye to also speak up to fight for food.
"What General Ji said is true. Other than a good-looking appearance, there's nothing else worth paying attention to.”
"Our Han Country uses martial arts to govern the country. Looking at his weak figure, it must be difficult for him to lift General Ji's eight-foot weapon.”
"That's right, I wonder what the Prime Minister is thinking…He actually pulled down his face and became the matchmaker for Red Lotus.”
The words were harsh and unpleasant to Zhang Xiangguo's ears, as if they were slapping his face ruthlessly. However, Zhang Xiangguo was not angry at all. He glanced at the ugly faces in front of him and said slowly," What right do you have to sit here and scold them? Don't forget... if the king didn't agree, how could Qin Mu sit at the banquet?”
"Could it be that you're indirectly saying…that the king has no foresight?”
Err…
Err…
As soon as these words were said, the voices in the banquet stopped abruptly, as if someone had choked their throats and they could not speak.
At this moment, who dared to speak?
If he spoke again, he would be offending the king!
The consequences of offending the king were not only to lose their official position, but also to implicate their families…No one dared to take this risk.
On the contrary, Qin Mu was still sitting in his seat, pouring wine for himself and slowly tasting the wine, not being moved by the outside world.
In fact, he knew that those officials who scolded him were all fence-sitters. Ji Wuye would definitely stand by his side when he gained power. When Ji Wuye became a prisoner one day, these officials would not only quickly change their camp, but they would also hit him when he was down, scold him, and expose his crimes.
This was the treacherous government!
However, he had already remembered the person who insulted him just now.
Credits?
He had to calculate slowly and not rush!
However, at this moment, a sinister voice came from outside the door." Zhang Xiangguo... your words are wrong... Father didn't agree to the marriage between Qin Mu and Red Lotus, so how can you say yes?”
