Chapter 848 Weird
All I could hear was the melodious, clear and pleasant sound of his flute, and the notes jumping out of the bamboo flute slowly spread.
However, the eldest prince of Beixiao did more than just play the flute and make music. He played the flute in one hand and held a sword in the other. The sword was completely white and there was a faint chill around the sword. His sword skills came out along with the sound of the flute, which was indescribably strange.
His figure was erratic, and where the sword passed, tiny ice crystals condensed in the air. The temperature in the hall dropped suddenly, and people began to shiver.
Everyone exclaimed, "He was playing the flute and dancing with the sword... that sword dance was so beautiful..."
Everyone's eyes were on the eldest prince of Beixiao. They were listening with fascination and watching with fascination. No one even noticed that the red petals between Jiang Fenghua's eyebrows seemed to change position. She twisted her waist like a seductive demon. There was a fierce light in her eyes, and full of resentment filled her brows, making the flowers more gorgeous and Jiang Fenghua's face more charming.
While playing the flute, Xiao Shang stared in the direction of Jiang Fenghua. A faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, confirming his thoughts. It turned out to be her?
The darling girl destined to change the fortune of the Great Zhou was unfortunately snatched away by him. If the girl destined to change the fortune of the Great Zhou was not used properly, she might become a witch who would accelerate the demise of the Great Zhou.
Jiang Fenghua only felt a heaviness between her brows. She pinched her brows and came back to her senses. She felt that she had been influenced by his flute music just now.
She suddenly threw the wine glass on the table to the ground. With a crisp "clang" sound, the glass cup was broken into pieces.
Jiang Fenghua glanced at everyone in the hall and said coldly, "Stop."
She said to Xie Shang beside her: "Your Majesty."
Xie Shang, however, was so fascinated by what he heard that he did not react.
Xiao Shang suddenly smiled at her, and the sword in his hand became faster and faster, and finally turned into a ball of white light.
Suddenly, he turned the sword and pointed it directly at the wine cup on the throne.
The next moment, the tip of the sword stopped abruptly three feet away from Xie Shang. Jiang Fenghua reacted quickly. She drew out the sword under the throne and fiercely blocked the tip of Xiao Shang's sword.
Before she could open her mouth to scold, everything in the hall that seemed to have been frozen into icicles disappeared in an instant.
The whole hall was in deathly silence. The next moment, everyone in the hall suddenly clapped their hands and praised, "Great swordsmanship."
Xie Shang was completely unaware of what had just happened. He suddenly laughed, "The Great Prince of Beixiao is indeed an amazing swordsman, and his flute music is even more beautiful. Someone, please give the Great Prince of Beixiao royal wine. Please take a seat, Great Prince."
Xiao Shang sheathed his sword and looked in the direction of Jiang Fenghua, "Your Majesty, do you also want to perform a sword dance?"
Jiang Fenghua was dumbfounded when she saw the scene in front of her. She had clearly used her sword to block Xiao Shang's sword that was trying to kill Xie Shang. How could this happen?
Xie Shang saw Jiang Fenghua standing up with the sword in his hand. He asked in confusion, "Queen."
Jiang Fenghua knew something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong, and she couldn't even provide evidence to prove that Xiao Shang wanted to assassinate Xie Shang.
She said calmly, "I saw that everyone likes the sword dance performance very much, so I want to go on stage and dance for everyone to enjoy it."
She wanted to see what kind of magic Xiao Shang used to confuse everyone in the hall, and why everyone acted as if nothing had happened just now, even Xie Shang didn't notice it.
Xie Shang disagreed with Jiang Fenghua's desire to perform sword dance.
Xie Shang said, "The Queen has drunk too much today, so don't go on stage. Swords have no eyes, so don't hurt yourself. Musicians, please play the music!"
Happy chefs and dancers came on stage one after another.
Jiang Fenghua didn't say anything and sat down again, staring at Xiao Shang.
Xie Shang saw this and quietly squeezed her hand, saying softly, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Jiang Fenghua said softly, "I have something to say to Your Majesty after the banquet."
Xie Shang nodded, "Okay."
He knew that Jiang Fenghua must have discovered something wrong. The eldest prince of the Beixiao Kingdom looked to be only about thirty years old.
Jiang Jinyan looked at the Queen's expression and felt uneasy. Ever since the eldest prince of Beixiao Kingdom entered Qiming Palace, Ruan Ruan's face looked very bad.
They had been sitting in their seats just now, but something seemed to have happened in the middle that caused them to temporarily lose their memory.
Sang Yu Pianpian toasted Jiang Jinyan, "Master Jiang, have a drink."
Jiang Jinyan whispered, "Does the Queen know him?"
Sang Yu smiled and said, "Jin Yan called me Pian Pian, so I will tell you his origins."
Jiang Jinyan coughed lightly, sat up straight, and took a sip of the wine glass.
Sang Yu said gracefully: "Forget it, I won't embarrass you. Since you sent me back to the posthouse, I will tell you!"
Jiang Jinyan's ears turned red. The Queen of Chaoxi Kingdom was really not reserved at all. Was she treating the royal husbands in her harem in the same way?
Sang Yu leaned close to his ear and said, "It is said that the most vigorous demon prince of Beixiao Kingdom killed his three uncles at the age of fifteen and successfully seized the throne of Khan of Beixiao Kingdom for his father. Since then, Beixiao Kingdom has been ruled by his father. At the age of seventeen, he led his army to massacre the leaders of other tribes in the Arctic, making all the surrounding tribes submit to Beixiao Kingdom. At that time, the people he killed were afraid of him and gave him the title of demon boy..."
Jiang Jinyan wondered, "Why are there so few records of the Northern Xiao Kingdom in history?"
Sang Yu Pianpian was actually very disdainful of the Northern Owl Kingdom. She liked to travel around before she ascended the throne. She hid her identity and visited many countries, but she had never been to the Northern Owl Kingdom north of the glacier. The reason she knew all this was because she heard it from others. She was not very old at that time and had only heard of the title of the devil boy but had never seen him.
This time, she organized all countries to come to Da Zhou to congratulate the emperor and empress on their wedding because she was really curious about the "devil boy" and wanted to come to Da Zhou again.
She stared at Jiang Jinyan's face, looking at him almost obsessively, her cheeks were red, as if she was drunk, and suddenly she hooked her arms around Jiang Jinyan's neck.
Jiang Jinyan wanted to move aside, but she said, "Don't move. Don't you want to know why Queen Jiang's behavior just now was so abrupt?"
Jiang Jinyan was stunned. "What do you mean? What do you know?"
Sang Yu Pianpian smelled of alcohol. She chuckled and said, "Xiao Shang was not called this name before. He was actually called Xiao Chuanyun. Although the Northern Xiao Kingdom has existed for two hundred years in history, it is not strong. It is like the natives in the northwest. They have their own territory and power and have lived there for generations. They don't have a strong army and can only guard their own corner of the land. The tricks he used to confuse people are indeed very strange. I can't see through them. Now if the Northern Xiao Kingdom wants to attack Chaoxi, Chaoxi will not be able to resist. It is also because Chaoxi has an advantage in terrain and no one dares to move."
Sang Yu Pianpian is bound to form an alliance with Da Zhou. Da Zhou can serve as a barrier for Chaoxi Kingdom, but if Da Zhou cannot defeat Bei Xiao, Chaoxi will certainly not be safe.
So Sang Yu Pianpian had to make this trip as she shouldered the important task of being the empress.
