An Empire as a Betrothal Gift

The young master came back.

The people of Chu rushed to tell each other, discussing a lot, wondering why Young Master Lian would come back suddenly at this juncture.

You must know that Young Master Lian was sent to Qin as a hostage last year, and he never thought that he would come back one day.When the two armies fought, Proton was undoubtedly the worst one.When Chu State took advantage of the danger and started war against Qin, it did not care about Wei Lian's life or death.

Wei Yan was clapping his hands in the palace: "That Wei Lian was very proud of being favored by the King of Qin last time. Now that they are fighting again, I wonder if the King of Qin will continue to dote on him? I'm afraid he will be the first to kill him as a sacrifice." flag!"

A beautiful woman in gorgeous clothes comforted her son: "Mother and concubine have said that he will be punished by King Qin sooner or later. Don't be angry, isn't this the retribution?"

When Concubine Yan adopted Wei Lian at the beginning, she had other plans, so naturally she didn't put too much heart into it.Later, Wei Yan, his own son, was always sowing discord, and he disliked Wei Lian a lot.

When Wei Lian went to Qin as a hostage, she still felt a little guilty. After all, she had raised her for so long, even a dog should have feelings for it.Wei Lian went to Qin State to make it clear that he was going to die, and Concubine Yan was not stingy in showing some mercy to those who were about to die.

Unexpectedly, Wei Yan went to Qin as an envoy, and when he came back, he said that Wei Lian had a prosperous life in Qin, and he was narrow-minded and hated the trivial things in the past, so he bullied others to sue the King of Qin and beat him thirty .

Wei Yan was not used to him in Qin, and he had nowhere to complain about his grievances. As soon as he came back to Concubine Yan's side, he complained a lot.Concubine Yan had always doted on Wei Yan, and upon hearing this, she scolded angrily: "It's really raising a white-eyed wolf. If it wasn't for the bastard that I raised him back then, he would have lived a good life for so many years?"

Helplessly, Wei Lian was already far away in the Qin Kingdom, so she could not avenge her son, so she could only coax Wei Yan: "A companion is like a tiger, he serves others with sex, and he cannot conceive children. How long will it last? Let's see, I can't pass How long will it be rejected, and the end will not be good."

Wei Yan looked forward day and night, and finally hoped that the two countries would fight again.In ancient times, Proton was the one who died first during the war, and no matter how much King Qin doted on Wei Lian, he would definitely be an eyesore at this time.

Thinking that Wei Lian is not doing well now, and may even be dead, Wei Yan felt a burst of refreshment in his heart, and immediately ran to Concubine Yan to announce the good news.

I don't want the mother and son to finish talking now, a clear and cold voice penetrated the hall: "Oh? I didn't know that the mother concubine and the prince wanted me to die so much."

Wei Yan froze.

He turned around slowly, and saw a tall and tall young man in white, with an expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"Why are you here?!" He took a big step back in shock.

"I came back to take a look when I was homesick, and I was going to visit the father and king. But the minister missed the concubine and the younger brother more, so I came here first." Wei Lian raised his eyelids, "It's just that the concubine and the younger brother don't seem to be the same. I'm very welcome."

Concubine Yan looked suspicious: "Nonsense! How did you come back? Did King Qin agree? Or did you sneak back?"

Wei Lian stared at her: "Why is Mother Concubine so afraid?"

Concubine Yan came to her senses and pointed outside emotionally: "Get out! It's been the best of benevolence to have raised you for so many years, why do you come back at this time? Don't implicate our mother and son!"

Her mind turned quickly.Now that Qin and Chu are at war again, the proton Wei Lian must be very unpopular in Qin.At this time, the purpose of returning to Chu State for no reason really makes people have to think about it.

Wei Lian's current status in Chu State is equally embarrassing - who knows if he was instigated by the Qin people and came back as a spy?At this time, if he plays the role of a loving mother and a filial son, if Wei Lian is really the inner response sent back by the Qin people, the King of Chu will be the first to tear her apart.If he sneaked back while taking advantage of the chaos, it would be a big trouble as well. She dared not face the wrath of the legendary King Qin.

In short, it's fishy all over, so it's best to disassociate with Wei Lian.

Lives and lives are at stake, Concubine Yan doesn't bother to act like a mother and son who reunited after a long absence, and the order to chase away guests is not polite, which means that she doesn't recognize Wei Lian as her son.

That's right, her son has always been Wei Yan.

How could she ask Wei Lian if he was living well in Qin State during this period, if he would suffer, and how he was able to come back from that dangerous place.She didn't say a word of greeting, she came up just to drive him away, all she cared about was that Wei Lian must not drag her down.

"Complicated?" Wei Lian's eyes seemed to contain sarcasm, but it only passed by for a moment, and then returned to calm.

"I see, Wei Lian will have nothing to do with you in the future." He chuckled, "Ms. Yan Fei."

After Wei Lian spoke, he turned around and left without hesitation.

He is really a person who is easy to soften his heart. If others treat him well, he can remember it for many years.In the palace just now, even if Concubine Yan worriedly asked him about his current situation, he would protect their mother and child.

But no.

When he stepped out of the palace, he looked up at the sky, and the sun was dazzlingly dazzling.He raised his hand to cover his eyes, squinted slightly to look at the scorching light through his fingers, but felt that the sunlight had no warmth.

It is said that the sky in his hometown is always the most beautiful, so why does he think it is not as good as Qin's.

The scene of Concubine Yan holding him on her lap and telling stories when she was young gradually faded away, and it became Ji Yue hugging him on the couch and laughing: "Wei Xiaolian, you are such a treasure, they don't cherish you, so I can't bear to let go."

Wei Lian laughed silently.

His heart is no longer in Chu State.

Nineteen years of hiding in the cold cellar of the cold pool, not as good as Ji Yue's endless enthusiasm and radiance for a year.

Huajuan hall.

The King of Chu had already received the news that Young Master Lian had appeared at the gate of the city today, so he couldn't figure out the situation for a while, so he just waited for his audience in the hall.

Sitting on both sides were Madam Li and Wu Ji, as well as Wei Jiao who had heard the news.

Mrs. Li is the biological mother of Prince Jiao. She became a wife by relying on her son.

But she has a prince by her side, and no one dares to laugh at her.She can't be a queen right now, but when the prince ascends the throne, she can be the queen mother.

Wei Jiao was the third among the seventeen heirs of the King of Chu. He was able to become the prince not because he was smart and capable, but because the other princes acted even more absurdly.

When the state of Chu was passed down to the generation of the king of Chu, there were few good seedlings, and some were killed, leaving only crooked melons and jujubes.The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. There is a father who likes to relax and hate work. The sons are also mediocre and full of bad habits.He has not taken on the slightest responsibility and obligation for the country and the people, and he has learned the arrogance and arrogance of the dude to the fullest.

Wei Jiao was the only one born with a brain.

But IQ is not too high.

In Wei Lian's eyes, there is really no difference between a large section of Gao Weilian and countless sections of Gao Weilian.

The king of Chu is over fifty years old, and Mrs. Li beside her is also around forty years old. No matter how careful the maintenance is, it is difficult to hide the fine lines around the eyes.On the other hand, Wu Ji, she is only a 16-year-old girl this year, not as big as Wei Lian, and her green onions are extremely tender and beautiful. It is no wonder that the King of Chu is willing to spend a lot of money to build the Golden Lotus Terrace for her.

When Wei Lian went to Qin, Wu Ji hadn't entered the palace yet, and she was not interested in this proton who came back from Qin - she had seen all the sons of King Chu, and they couldn't afford to support them all. Ah Dou, how promising is the one who sent it out?

It's just that now the king of Chu is very interested in her and wants to take her everywhere, so he took advantage of the opportunity to see the appearance of the seventh son.

Wu Ji looked around boredly, and suddenly heard a ringing sound, and raised her eyes to see the people entering the hall, her eyes were frozen for a moment.

... Who is that immortal figure with stunning appearance, cold brows, and impeccable beauty?

Is the son overwhelmed?

Wu Ji looked at the bloated and fat King Chu beside her, and couldn't believe it was born by this father.

She looked at the ordinary-looking prince and couldn't believe it was born by a father.

"Father." Wei Lian stepped into the hall, bowed slightly, and stood up without waiting for King Chu to speak.

Wu Ji felt that her ears were about to become pregnant.

This kind of son with a nice voice, good looks, and a dusty temperament, is the king of Chu deceived by lard? Why did he send him out!

On second thought, maybe it's because only this one can do it...

Before the King of Chu could say the word "free", Wei Lian got up by himself, and his complexion sank.

Concubine Ji, who turned her head to see her new favorite, also stared dumbfounded at Wei Lian, her complexion getting darker.

He doesn't like this son.The prince of Chu had many heirs, and Wei Lian had no sense of existence at all. However, before Wei Lian left for Qin, Wei Lian called him by his first name and criticized him for being fatuous. This incident impressed the king of Chu deeply.

No one has ever dared to be so presumptuous in front of him.

But at that time, Wei Lian was a gift for the King of Qin, and the King of Chu couldn't touch him.Now this rebellious son has come back by himself...

Wei Jiao saw that the King of Chu was not happy, he was used to please his father, and immediately shouted: "Presumptuous! How can you get up without asking your father to get up? The seventh brother went to Qin, and even forgot the etiquette ?"

Wei Lian lowered his eyes lightly: "Never remember."

"You—" Wei Jiao was shocked.

How dare he speak like this in front of his father? !

A big reason why Wei Jiao can become the prince is that he is the best at pleasing the King of Chu.When the other brothers are causing trouble every day and worrying the father, as long as he stays quiet and does nothing, a zero score is also a perfect score.It's better than other brothers.

It all depends on compatriots.

Wei Jiao, who regards pleasing the King of Chu as his only means of gaining power, can't imagine that there are people in the world who dare to be so rampant against his father.

Wei Jiao originally wanted to vent his anger on behalf of the King of Chu, but Wei Lian's retaliation made the King of Chu even more angry - this rebellious son really hasn't changed at all, he is still so lawless!

King Chu held back his breath: "Who told you to come back?"

Mrs. Li whispered in her ear: "Your Majesty, according to my concubine's humble opinion, the Seventh Young Master should have been driven back by the King of Qin." At the beginning, the Seventh Young Master was sent there for the sake of peace between the two countries, but now that there is another fight, he must have been sent back. what?

Wei Lian smiled, "It's really stupid."

Mrs. Li trembled.

The distance is so far, and she speaks in such a low voice, how did Gong Zilian hear it?

Wei Lian has always kept a low profile in Chu State.He knew how to hide his strength and bide his time since he was a child, and later he kept restraining himself because of his master's prophecy.Few people in the entire Chu country know how powerful he is.

Now that the prophecy has been resolved, he has confidence, so he is naturally too lazy to pretend to be false.

Mrs. Li has spent more than 20 years in the deep palace, and she only sees that side of the world all day long, so her thoughts are naturally simple.Unaware that the two countries are at war again, it is impossible for the proton to be sent back in a good manner, and the head of the proton is almost the same.

Seeing his mother being ridiculed, Wei Jiao's tone sank: "Seventh Prince, you really have become unreasonable. Father, my son sees that Seventh Prince is so impolite, I'm afraid his heart is already on the side of the Qin people, and they won't let us go." It's in my eyes. Maybe I want to be a traitor when I come back this time, so I should take him down, put him in prison, and interrogate him severely!"

The king of Chu nodded: "Jiao Er's words are reasonable..." No matter what the reason was, he couldn't tolerate this son because of Wei Lian's repeated offenses.

Wei Lian snorted lightly, and said two words in a low voice.

"Stupider."

Which traitor would dare to be as arrogant as him.

Is he here to usurp the throne?
