Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 502

Chapter 502 Qing Lan Recommended Herself
An Hua’s gaze swept across the people in front of him, but he didn’t see any familiar figures. He frowned tightly, but didn’t say anything.

Very quickly, the soft sedan stopped. The palace servants helped An Hua down from the soft sedan and sat in the first seat. Only then did they look at everyone with invincible eyes and said indifferently, “Everyone, get up. Are everyone here?”

Mu Xuan respectfully turned from the side and bowed respectfully. “Reporting to Your Highness, only Your Majesty, Young Master Rong, and the Grand Emperor have not arrived.”

An Hua’s eyebrows flashed with a trace of ease when he heard her say this. He coldly snorted, “Time is up. It’s not up yet. Since we’re not punctual, let’s start first.” Ever since he was tricked by Rong Xun during the ascension ceremony, An Hua hated Rong Xun to the death. He hated to drink his blood and eat his flesh. He didn’t even like Rong Ruo.

Although Rong Ruo was Mu Xuan’s son, she was also Rong Xun’s son.

Mu Xuan was a little hesitant. Today, she obeyed An Hua’s orders to host a banquet at the Mu Clan to meet her child and Rong Jin. She had been invited by Rong Jin many times in the past month, but every time she was stopped, she couldn’t help but want to see him when she was upset.

Seeing that An Hua was no longer worried, she was anxious but had no strategy.

Outsiders always thought that she was a celebrity by An Hua’s side, but they didn’t know that when she was by An Hua’s side, she was always afraid. However, this kind of emotion had always been well hidden by her.

At this moment, she didn’t dare to plead for anything. She only looked at the path not far away. Seeing the crowd, a trace of surprise flashed through her eyes. “Your Majesty, the Emperor has arrived.”

An Hua looked in the direction of Mu Xuan’s finger. Sure enough, she saw Rong Ruo and Rong Jinrong Xun walking over together. A hint of disgust flashed in her eyes. There was a faint surge in the depths of her eyes that was almost undetectable. She coldly snorted and stopped talking.

He looked at the wooden stake as if there was nothing in his eyes. From the wooden stake, a pair of calm eyes appeared. There was no surprise or joy in his eyes. There was no ripple in his eyes.

In her heart, she hated Yun Xiao’s appearance as if she was in control of everything. She wished she could kill her immediately. However, she believed that her eyes would soon be destroyed by her beloved man.

Thinking of this, An Hua’s displeasure returned to normal, and he ignored the few people who walked over. However, he was even more displeased that all the women were looking at the three of them. He directly instructed, “Put that wooden stake in the open space in front of us first. Later, let’s play some other games.”

When everyone heard that there was a different kind of game to play, Surprise appeared in their eyes. At banquets, the organizers would usually come up with some small games to adjust the atmosphere. However, they were usually just singing and dancing. This time, it was the Empress Dowager who spoke. Everyone felt that this matter was very different. As for how it was different, it was unclear.

Therefore, he couldn’t help but feel a little curious.

Everyone began to discuss in low voices how to play with such a wooden stake later, but they forgot about the other things.

On the other side, Rong Jin, Rong Xun, and Rong Ruo walked over with a few guards in light clothing. As they approached the banquet venue, their gazes froze for an instant. Hearing An Hua’s words, they looked at the wooden stakes on the open ground as if they didn’t see anything.

Rong Jin’s eyes narrowed, A harsh look flashed in Black Spirit’s eyes. He looked at the people with cold eyes. He could feel that the wooden stakes were a little unusual when he saw the footsteps of the two people carrying them. He remembered the news from the Mu Clan today. An Hua had sent people to bring the wooden stakes out of the palace. He had specially gone to investigate.

Compared to the footprints he had found earlier, the footprints of the people in front of him were obviously deeper, which meant that there must be something strange inside the wooden stake.

He silently winked at Rong Ruo and Rong Xun before following behind Rong Ruo. When they arrived at the banquet, the people in the banquet bowed to Rong Ruo and the others and greeted them.

Although Rong Ruo was relatively small, her aura wasn’t weak at all. She gave those people a cold glance and waved her hand, “Get up.”

He didn’t look at the people on either side, especially the eager gazes from Mu Xuan. He slowly walked forward and stopped in front of An Hua. He cupped his hands and bowed, “Greetings, Imperial Grandmother.”

An Hua waved his hand and said, “Since you’re here, hurry up and take a seat.”

Rong Xun didn’t even bow and directly sat on the first seat on the left.

Rong Jin cupped his hands at An Hua and did not say anything. He also sat beside Rong Xun. Because Rong Jin did not often appear in front of everyone, many people did not know who Rong Jin was. However, they were very enthusiastic about Rong Jin’s face. Many people’s gazes had been fixed on Rong Jin’s face, and his temperament made people admire him.

Rong Jin ignored the eager gaze from the woman. His gaze landed on Rong Xun’s ebony ghost mask. He didn’t know when Rong Xun would be willing to take off this ebony ghost mask.

Rong Ruo quickly sat down with Rong Jin and Rong Xun.

As a result, everyone became even more suspicious of Rong Jin’s identity. People who could sit beside the current Yue Emperor and the Grand Emperor were definitely not in the pool. However, why had they never seen such a person before?

Those with good memories only remembered that more than half a year ago, the eldest prince who was a protector in the Eastern Jin Dynasty had returned to China. Could it be that this was the eldest prince who lived in seclusion? Who would have thought that he would be so refined? Especially after being swept by that pair of black eyes, everyone felt as if they were bathed in the spring breeze. This feeling was very comfortable, so they looked at Rong Jin more and more.

However, when he felt that the atmosphere in the banquet hall was a little stagnant, he restrained himself a little.

Rong Ruo frowned. She was very displeased with the gazes everyone was looking at her father. She looked at An Hua not far away and said indifferently, “Royal Grandmother, what’s on today? Let’s begin.”

With Rong Ruo’s words and An Hua’s approval, the others would naturally be free.

After a burst of singing and dancing, it was the noble ladies of the various clans who began to perform their talents. When the talent performance was almost complete, An Hua said loudly, “Every banquet is filled with these songs and dances. It’s really meaningless. Why don’t we take advantage of the Emperor and the Grand Emperor to play something special this time?”

Many people were curious about the special program that An Hua had mentioned. Now that they heard it again, their hearts immediately became interested. They all agreed and heard An Hua continue to say, “Did everyone see the wooden stakes in the open space? Today, we will use this wooden stake as the title. Everyone will give out a bow and arrow. No matter who it is, as long as they shoot the wooden stakes, there will be a reward.”

Everyone was in an uproar when they heard the news.

As long as it hit the wooden stake, there would be a reward. This was a unique opportunity! Many people were eager to try.

At this moment, a woman dressed in luxurious clothes suddenly walked out and greeted An Hua respectfully. Then, she said loudly, “Reporting to Your Highness, is this reward okay?”

An Hua smiled and nodded. He recognized this woman as the second daughter of the Iron General Clan. He heard that the tiger father had no dogs. This woman was a good archer.

The woman pointed in Rong Jin’s direction and proudly said, “If I can shoot a wooden stake, how about the Empress marry this young master for me?”

An Hua was slightly stunned. A trace of condensation flashed through his eyes. A trace of killing intent also surged in his eyes. However, it was only for a moment. He looked at the woman not far away mockingly and said with a smile that was not a smile, “But the Ai Clan naturally has this intent. It just depends on whether the Swallow King is willing to marry you or not.”

An Hua’s words confirmed everyone’s speculation. This man was indeed the eldest prince who had returned from the Eastern Jin Dynasty as a proton. Not long ago, he was crowned the Swallow King.

Many people were secretly shocked. They heard that the current Yue Emperor was brought up by the Swallow King. Although the Swallow King did not seem to be favored as a protector, just by bringing the current Yue Emperor up, he was able to close the Grand Emperor’s status.

In just an instant, Rong Jin became the object of Xi Yue’s noble daughter’s request for marriage.

However, someone whispered, “I heard that the Empress intends to marry Mu Minzhi, the first daughter of the Mu Clan, to the Swallow King. However, the Swallow King rejected her. This time, the first daughter of the Iron General Clan will also marry the Swallow King. I wonder if the Swallow King is willing to do so.”

Quite a few people already had expressions of admiration in their eyes as they watched the show.

Tie Qinglan, the first daughter of the Iron General’s family, frowned slightly when she heard this. However, she was determined to obtain Rong Jin. She quickly walked not far from Rong Jin and bowed respectfully in Rong Jin’s direction.

In the middle of the salute, Tie Qinglan raised her head slightly and looked at Rong Jin. As they got closer, The more she felt that the masculine temperament was gorgeous, her charm was natural, her handsome face carried a faint smile, and her black eyes flashed with a faint light. In this instant, Tie Qinglan wanted to leave her figure forever in those eyes. She whispered, “Qing Lan greeted His Highness the Swallow King. Qing Lan intends to marry the Swallow King. May I ask if the Swallow King intends to do so?”

Rong Jin smiled indifferently and looked at the wooden stake not far away. He said softly, “Then let’s see if Miss Tie can hit the wooden stake opposite.”

Tie Qinglan did not expect to receive such an answer from Rong Jin. A hint of joy flashed across her eyes and she immediately said proudly, “Naturally, as long as I want to, I can shoot the wooden stake.” She had been learning archery from her father since childhood. Although she could not reach a hundred steps, the wooden stake was only standing not far away, and it was not easy to shoot.

It was also because Tie Qinglan had been mixed up in men’s nest since she was young, so men and women’s defenses were somewhat weak. In her consciousness, if she liked it, then she liked it. She had to fight for it. It would be truly sad to learn from those well-behaved girls and miss out on her lover.

How much is a little face worth? She never cared.
