Fate is easy to tie, not easy to solve

In other words, Chu Hong's 21st birthday is approaching, and the Ministry of Rites is busy again.Although the crown prince will act as in previous years, after all, he is the crown prince of a country, and the future ruler of the country will naturally not be neglected.

The ministers were all looking for gifts for the crown prince's birthday. Naturally, the crown prince had no shortage of jade or gold, but giving these seemed tacky and unremarkable.How can His Royal Highness catch a glimpse of the prince, the image is deep, and the ministers have really worked hard!

I also heard that this year Zhao Guo came to congratulate the prince. It seems that it was a gift brought by the fifth prince himself. It can be seen that the friendship between Zhao Guo and Chu is true.

After hearing this, Chu Hong didn't express anything, she just raised the corners of her mouth habitually, unable to see his happiness or anger.

Fifth Prince, Zhao Yixiao!Chu Hong gently rubbed the smooth lines on the teacup.The fifth prince of Zhao State was born of a beautiful woman, not to mention whether he is good or not.The beauty gave birth to a dragon son and returned to the west. The old maid in the palace took care of the child until she was ten years old.Sending an unfavorable prince over here, the sincerity of Zhao Guo is nothing more than that.

On the day of the crown prince's birthday, there were singing and dancing in the royal palace of Chu, and even the emperor of Chu arrived early, which shows how much the crown prince has won the king's heart.

The throne of Chu ascended, from the left are the crown prince, concubine and concubine Liang, followed by the position of the prince and grandson in the imperial city.The position from the right is vacant, usually reserved for distinguished guests, followed by ministers.In the middle is where the song and dance girls dance.

It was getting dark, and festive palace seals were lit in the palace.The birthday party officially began.After singing and dancing, the ministers offered gifts one after another. Chu Hong kept the same smile and thanked her.

Wu Yun stood behind Chu Hong and accepted all the presents for him. Emperor Chu Chu Xiaotian seemed very happy, he laughed loudly, "It's the crown prince's birthday, everyone is thinking, I can't be behind." He raised his hand, Wang Yi picked up a brocade box and opened the lid.Inside is a golden Kowloon cup, which is a real Kowloon utensil that only the emperor can use.The ministers knew that this was a hint of the prince's future throne, and His Royal Highness really won the king's heart.

When Chu Hong saw the things in the brocade box, her brows were barely noticeable and she frowned slightly.Get up, go to the middle and kneel down: "Thank you, father."

Wu Yun took the brocade box from Wang Yi and carefully put it away.

"sigh!"

Wu Yun looked, it was Xiao Lizi who was behind the princess, and it was his voice just now.The princess was smiling, but couldn't see anything.

The gifts that should be given have already been given away, Wu Yun said softly to Chu Hong: "Your Highness, can the servant go and prepare now?" Chu Hong nodded, and Wu Yun left the banquet.All of this was seen by Zhao Jingshu. She watched the performances of the singing and dancing girls with a dignified smile on her face.

At this time, Prince Zhao was reported outside, and Chu Huangxuan and the others came in.

I saw five men walking in, and the leader, Chu Hong, was no stranger.All in white, with a folding fan in his hand, his brows and eyes are full of smiles.This person is exactly the person Chu Hong and others met in Changzhou. It turns out that he is the fifth prince.

Zhao Yixiao and his entourage walked in, carrying something covered with a red cloth, so it was impossible to see what was inside.

"Greetings to Emperor Chu." The five saluted.

Chu Xiaotian laughed and raised his hands: "Please rise, fifth prince, please rise, everyone."

"I am here this time to represent the state of Zhao to congratulate the crown prince of your country on his birthday. I wish the prince of your country good luck and well-being, and hope that the two countries of Chu and Zhao will be repaired and prosperous for a hundred years." He pointed to the things behind him, "Little Gifts are not homage."

The man with the scar pulled away the red cloth vigorously, and what he saw was an eye-opener for everyone present, who were amazed.

Chu Hong looked at Zhao Yixiao, the two looked at each other, Zhao Yixiao nodded and smiled.

Chu Xiaotian stood up from the chair, walked down and looked around the thing with a surprised expression on his face.Going back to his seat and sitting down, he was a little puzzled, "The evergreen tree carved by this century-old green coral is clever and vivid. Such a complete and huge century-old coral is very rare, and this knife skill is even rarer in the world. If I guessed it right, but it was made by Shangguan Shou in the hand of the ghost eagle?"

Zhao Yixiao just smiled and didn't answer, he acquiesced to his guess.Now Chu Xiaotian was even more surprised, "It would be strange if it was true. This Shangguan Shou is said to have reached immortality, and even if he didn't, he would be in his nineties. How could he still use a knife?!"

When he said this, the ministers looked at the coral with even more precious eyes.

Only then did Zhao Yixiao speak: "Your Majesty has good eyesight. This is the work of Shangguan, but it is not the work of the late Mr. Shangguan. It is the work of his grandson."

Chu Xiaotian stroked his beard and understood: "No wonder, such a wonderful sword technique is none other than Shangguan's. Zhao Guo really has a heart for such a precious treasure. Prince, let's sit down."

Zhao Yixiao nodded and smiled, this is a treasure that he has spent so long on that idiot, so it is naturally very rare!

Zhao Guolai came to the table, and everyone raised their glasses and drank together.Zhao Yixiao raised his glass and looked at Chu Hong, signaling a toast.Chu Hong raised her lips in response.

Not long after, it was reported that someone had come to Huguo Temple, and the person who came was the little monk Yuankong.Although they always send someone to send gifts every year, this year it was sent by Yuankong himself, so the meaning is different.

Chu Hong was very happy, and got up personally to take the gift box he presented, which contained a fiery red jade wall.

"My master personally selected this as a gift to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Seeing his old-fashioned appearance, Chu Hong didn't like it very much, so she teased him.

Emperor Chu clasped his hands together piously, "Amitabha, Elder Liaokong is worried. Wang Yi sent the little master out."

Chu Hong stood up, "Royal father, let my son send the little master out, this is also a respect to the Buddhist family."

Chu Xiaotian nodded in agreement."Chu Hong grabbed a handful of sugar crisps on the table and sent Yuan to make it empty.

Yuan Kong walked outside and stopped.Chu Hong, who followed behind, was rarely in a good mood, and nodded to the two little monks who had been waiting outside, and the little monks saluted and greeted him.Chu Hong walked up to Yuankong and stuffed the things in his hands. Yuankong saw the things in his hands, his face turned red, and he glared at Chu Hong in shame and indignation.

"You go out first, I'll come later." Yuan Kong said to the little novice, and he didn't speak to Chu Hong until the little novice was far away.

"Your Highness, you don't need to do this, the master asked me to send the things, and the things are also the master's things. Besides, I don't eat sweets anymore! Monks, don't be greedy for food!"

As he spoke, he was determined to return the things in his hand to Chu Hong, but Tang's hand did not loosen at all.

Chu Hong turned her back, "Who said this is for you, this is for your master, thank you for his gift. Just tell him that His Highness is satisfied, just go back." Then she turned and left.

Yuan Kong was stunned, looking at the things in his hand, at Chu Hong who had gone away, and at the leading eunuch who was holding back a smile, his face flushed.

The little eunuch: "Let's go, little master, His Royal Highness will reward you." He covered his mouth and smiled.

Yuankong left angrily, he thought sullenly that he should listen to his master and stop talking to this prince!

At the banquet, the prince came back, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.

Just in time, Wu Yun, dressed in white, came to the middle with a sword behind him. "Today is the crown prince's birthday. The servant specially prepared a sword dance for the crown prince. Thank you for your care over the years, His Highness the crown prince."

All eyes were on him. Wu Yun, who was not wearing a eunuch's uniform, was tall and tall, with white clothes and black hair, and a heroic look between his eyebrows, which could be described as majestic.

When Chu Hong was on the stage, she kept looking in his direction, with a faint smile on her face.

Chu Huang looked at the guests present with great interest, especially the guests from Zhao Guolai.He looked at Prince Chu Hong again, and raised his hand, "Let's dance then."

Wu Yun waved his arm and flashed his sword, accompanied by a low-pitched and powerful music, his moves, every move seemed to have invisible magic power, attracting everyone's attention.

Chu Hong narrowed her eyes, interesting!

The little Lizi behind the princess was already sweating profusely. Wu Yun had such a good skill. What he said was enough to kill him many times!

Suddenly, when everyone was indulging in it, a dazzling sword light flashed, and the people present couldn't help but close their eyes.Except, Chu Hong.

ah!A sharp cry broke the harmonious atmosphere of the banquet.

"Escort, escort."

"Come on, assassin! Escort!"

The guards rushed in, and the scene was chaotic.

According to the recollection of a minister who attended the banquet at that time, he hid under the table immediately.There are assassins!It's more important to save your own life.He came out when the guards controlled the scene.

It was like this at the time, the guards surrounded the middle of the banquet so tightly.The minister was very curious, so he squeezed in sneakily, leaning on the shoulders of the guards outside and peering inside.The prince and the "assassin" were both in the circle, and there was a woman lying in the prince's arms, whose chest was bleeding continuously, it was Zhao Liangdi.The assassin was actually the eunuch dancing with the sword!

The minister was stunned. Sure enough, things like swords can't dance around.

The injured Zhao Liangdi in the circle said something, she looked very weak, and blood kept oozing out.He was really worried that she lost too much blood and died when she couldn't catch her breath, what was she talking about!The assassin also said something, and the prince also said something.Far away, he couldn't hear clearly.In the end, His Majesty, who was protected by a group of guards, spoke, and he heard this.

"If that's the case, let the crown prince take full control of it!"

The guards pushed the assassin away, the prince followed, and the injured one was also sent away.His Majesty said that other people can leave too. He was naturally very happy. The palace is so dangerous, but the home is safe. I don't know if that person is asleep?He hasn't had his fill yet, so I don't know if he has anything to eat when he goes back.
