Chapter 169 Are you so afraid of being seen by him?
"Zhu Yuan, is your wife ashamed to be seen? You came all the way here to congratulate the King of War, but she didn't show up on the wedding day. Today she wore a veil to meet the Emperor, covering her face so tightly. Are you afraid that others will see her?"
Emperor Ling Yin snorted. Since the Emperor of Nanbang dared to tease his daughter-in-law in front of him, he would naturally tease back.
"It's not that I'm afraid of being seen by others, but I'm mainly afraid of being seen by you." The Emperor of Nanbang raised his head and responded casually. Those who knew the situation knew what he meant.
"You... Zhu Yuan, it's been more than 20 years, and no matter how I tell you, you don't believe it. I have never seen your queen, nor have I tried to steal her from you. Why are you so stubborn?"
"You haven't seen her? But I have seen the woman next to you, the woman you brought back from Nan'an and made queen. She is my queen! She was pregnant at the time, and that child is my emperor!
I guess you threatened her with the child. Now Jinxiu and the child are gone. I am tired after so many years. There is no need for you to deny it."
"Nonsense! Zhu Yuan, I have no right to stop you from labeling your own queen like this, but Jinxiu is my beloved woman. She and I met, got to know each other, and fell in love in Rongcheng. The baby in her belly is my prince, and it has nothing to do with you. I will not allow you to smear her like this! If you continue to speak so arrogantly, you can forget about going back!" Emperor Ling Yin slammed the table in anger.
"Father." Toya quickly stood up and walked forward, took out a medicine bottle from her bosom and poured out a pill for him to swallow, "Father, Dean He said not to get angry, we won't get angry with him, he can't even protect his own queen, and he bites people randomly, this is the first time I've seen it."
The Emperor of Nanbang was secretly ridiculed by the little girl. Although she was a queen, everyone around her took a deep breath.
“Hahaha…Tuoya, you have such a sharp tongue, be careful what you say. Jing Muyang can’t protect you!”
"You don't have to worry about that. I don't really care about your 150,000-strong army. I can protect myself without Mu Yang." Toya stood in front of Emperor Ling Yin mercilessly, facing this crazy emperor of Nanbang.
"Oh, it's hard to say, it's hard to say." The Nanbang Emperor was not anxious or angry at all, "Sit down, sit down, why are you so excited? Look, look, I just said one sentence, and you two, the father-in-law and the daughter-in-law, are teaming up to criticize me. This is not the way to treat guests."
"You are a lunatic. Who wants to be with you? Zhu Yuan, you should go back tomorrow. If you stay any longer, I cannot guarantee your safety!"
Emperor Ling Yin really couldn't stand him. The emperor of a country had been crazy for more than twenty years. He did whatever he wanted and didn't do many reliable things.
"Oh, Jingtai, so stingy? I'm really afraid, but I haven't had enough fun yet and want to stay a few more days. If you are really angry, I will let my daughter-in-law play a song for you, how about it?" The Nanbang Emperor looked back at Chu Jian, "Chu Yang, you go."
"Father, Chuyang's piano skills are average, so let me do it." Fuso stood up.
"Then you two can play together. The music you played together last time was simply heavenly music. Let them listen to it too." The Nanbang Emperor changed his position to hold the child. "My dear grandson, after listening to the music, you should go to your mother to drink milk."
Chu Jian raised her hand and asked Lu Yi to help her up. She knew very well what the emperor meant. If she didn't follow his arrangements, Siming would probably never be able to return to her.
The emperor hired a wet nurse, but in the past few days she could only see the child once a day, and could not hold the child more than twice, let alone feed the child once.
Fuso knew very well that his father was holding Siming hostage to control Chujian, and even he was being guarded against, but he did not deny that he wanted to keep Chujian by his side, so he mostly acquiesced and obeyed his father's arrangements.
Chu Jian walked out with her head lowered and saluted to Emperor Lingyin, then sat next to Qin with Fuso. For her, the safety of her child was the most important thing. She was afraid that Emperor Nanbang would get angry and Siming would be in trouble.
"Chuyang, don't be afraid, Siming will be fine." Fuso tuned the strings of her zither and patted her hand gently to show his reassurance.
"Yeah." Chu Jian nodded, plucked the strings lightly and started playing, and Fuso's music followed suit.
I can’t really say this piece of music is good, mainly because I wasn’t very familiar with it when I first heard it. I had problems practicing it with Jing Muyang a few times before. I didn’t play the piano much afterwards, and I didn’t dare to play this piece of music.
Emperor Ling Yin frowned. Is this considered heavenly music? He didn't even want to pollute his ears. The relationship between Zhu Yuan, his father, and his daughter-in-law was weird. He couldn't tell what was weird about it, but he just felt that something was wrong.
Jing Muyang was busy on the boat next door. When he heard the sound of the piano coming from the main boat, he was stunned for a moment, then put down what he was doing and came over.
"Oh, Jingtai, your precious son finally came over." The Emperor of Nanbang joked.
"Jing Muyang greets His Majesty the Emperor of Nanbang!"
"My dear nephew, there is no need to be so polite. We didn't even have time to say a word to each other when we met at the last ceremony. I wonder if you could have a drink with me today?" The Emperor of Nanbang has already raised his glass.
With a clang sound, the string of Chu Jian's guitar broke. When he played it, it hit his finger and blood immediately gushed out.
Fuso stopped and hurried forward to check, "Chuyang! Don't move, let me see."
Jing Muyang turned his head and saw Nanbang's Prince Fusang hugging a woman who was wearing the same color dress as him. She was wearing a red veil, had thick bangs, and was slightly plump. She lowered her head so that her eyes could not be seen, and her eyes were half blocked by Fusang. One could only see that the fingertips of her right hand were bleeding.
"Qingshan, go to the next boat to invite Dean He." Jing Muyang ordered.
"Why are you so careless?" Emperor Nanbang sighed.
"Zhu Yuan, your wife is obviously not good at playing the piano but you force her to play it. Isn't this your own fault?" Emperor Ling Yin said to him.
Dean He came over immediately, but Fuso did not let him go forward. He just took the medicine box from his hand and treated Chu Jian's wound skillfully. A lot of blood had been lost and the cut was a bit deep.
"Be careful, don't come into contact with water." Fuso gently touched her head.
Chu Jian nodded gently and let Fuso help her back to her seat.
Emperor Ling Yin had a dark face. Even though Crown Princess Fusang was badly injured, she didn't make a sound or even raise her head.
When I thought of this, I suddenly got angry. Why was I so afraid of being seen by him? Zhu Yuan, that lunatic, had abnormal things in his head. Look, there was no normal person in his family.
Jing Muyang sat next to Toya and waited quietly for Fuso to finish.
He didn't want to attend such an occasion from the beginning, but the Fourth Prince was leading the way on the leading boat in front, and the Fifth Prince was checking the ingredients on the dining boat in the back, so it would take a while for them to come over.
In fact, he had not yet finished his inspection, but he came over when he heard the sound of the piano.
But now that I have come this far, I can’t leave anymore. I have to explain things and I will stay here to keep you company.
