Chapter 468: Talk, the door is open
In the luxurious hall that no one cared about, the slightest spiritual fluctuation could not even be detected by the Title Douluo in the Imperial Family Worship Hall.
Hidden spiritual probes covered the Star Luo Palace, and outside of the ministers who said I laughed, a figure appeared that made Huo Yuhao unpleasant, causing his originally easy-going expression to subconsciously frown.
It wasn't hard for him to be angry, but seeing this person made him not very willing to control his emotions.
The one who came was the wife of Duke Baihu, the Duchess, and in addition, she was also the half-sister of the current Star Luo Emperor Xu Jiawei.
Although there are many concubines in each generation of emperors, the descendants are always mostly women. Xu Jiawei has no brothers, just sisters and sisters. The Duchess was his eldest sister.
The hereditary prime minister of the Star Luo Empire is the Zhu family, and the Dai family is a 10,000-year-old family friend, and the two families agree that if the daughter of the Zhu family and the son of the Dai family of each generation can practice the martial soul fusion technique, they will become in-laws.
But in Dai Hao's generation, it just so happens that the Zhu family does not have a daughter of the same age. Either in order to deepen the relationship with the White Tiger, or to deliberately divide the feelings of the Dai and Zhu families, the Duchess was promised by the Emperor Taishang to the current Duke of the White Tiger.
Today, the Duchess has given birth to two brothers, Dai Keyheng and Dai Huabin, for the Duke of White Tiger. Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu have practiced the martial soul fusion technique Netherworld White Tiger, and if there is no accident, they should succeed to become the next generation of White Tiger Dukes in the future.
And the Duchess is also a very strange woman, although it is a political marriage, she is still hopelessly in love with the then White Tiger Duke.
But in the Duchess's heart, there was always a twisted jealousy and a strong desire for possessiveness. She was not from the Zhu family, and it stands to reason that she should not have married Duke Baihu, and her status as a duchess may be lost at any time.
Therefore, the Duchess always harbored strong hostility towards the rest of the women who appeared next to the White Tiger Duke. Huo Yun'er was the poor woman who bore all her hostility.
In terms of cultivation, Huo Yun'er is just an ordinary maid, and she has no cultivation at all. In terms of background, she is not a noble daughter. In terms of status, her son with the Duke of the White Tiger did not inherit the White Tiger Martial Spirit.
No matter what the point of view, poor Huo Yun'er could not threaten the status of the Duchess, but the Duchess still launched endless persecution against her.
Huo Yuhao's feelings for Dai Hao can barely be said to be complicated, but it can be said to be very pure for the Duchess.
Pure evil can only be avenged by pure evil.
"What's wrong, Yuhao?"
The sensitive for a long time immediately discovered Huo Yuhao's abnormality, followed Huo Yuhao's gaze, his face also changed slightly, and he persuaded softly: "On such a cheerful occasion today, don't have a conflict." ”
Huo Yuhao nodded lightly: "Yes." ”
He chose to give a long time to face, temporarily suppressed the chill in his heart, and deliberately avoided the sight of the duchess for a long time, located on both sides of the hall.
Huo Yuhao hadn't seen the Duchess for a long time, at least when Huo Yun'er was still alive, he never took the initiative to say hello to the Duchess.
If Duke White Tiger is the root cause of Huo Yun'er's suffering, then the Duchess is the direct cause of all Huo Yun'er's suffering. If you are a kind-hearted lady, it is impossible for the food and clothing in the side room to be inferior to the subordinates, and you even need to work all day long.
Huo Yuhao had never forgotten this femme fatale, but when he was in the Duke's Palace, he held back for the time being, and he simply couldn't see it and was not bothered.
Whether it's the royal family or the ducal palace, there is a need for decency. He had already justified Huo Yun'er's name, and if he was aggressive, it would be undignified, and if he was not decent, someone would help him and Huo Yun'er be decent.
But now, if you want to talk about decency, you don't know who is decent.
The Ice Emperor in the Sea of Spirits was a little surprised and said, "Yu Hao, it's rare for you to be so angry, do you want to kill that human being?" ”
"This old woman can solve it whenever she wants, but the occasion is not right now." Huo Yuhao replied lightly, "And as I said, I don't like simple killing. ”
For a long time, she and the Duchess are half-sisters, but the age difference is a whole generation, and she was the one who mediated the conflict in the first place, Huo Yuhao had to give her a face, and Xu Jiawei had to give a face.
The Duchess was not interested in the theme of the feast, she had come to the White Tiger Duke. She hadn't seen Duke White Tiger for a long time, and the longing in her heart couldn't be overstated. However, Duke Baihu is now discussing important matters with Xu Jiawei and others, and he did not attend the banquet.
The Sun and Moon Envoy and the ministers of Xingluo talked and laughed constantly, and someone recognized the Duchess and saluted her, but the Duchess only bowed her head slightly, and her two eyes kept searching the crowd, hoping to find the tall and mighty back.
Suddenly, a middle-aged man called her: "Isn't this a virtuous sister?" ”
The Duchess was stunned for a moment, and said flatly: "I've seen Duke Zhu." ”
The one who stopped him was the eldest son of the Zhu family, named Zhu Jing, who was already an official and worshiped the prime minister, and he should be Zhu Lu's uncle in terms of generation.
Zhu Jing asked, "Sister Xian is looking for the Duke of the White Tiger?" ”
The Duchess always felt uncomfortable in the face of the Zhu family, as if she had snatched the position of Duchess that should have belonged to the Zhu family.
"Yes."
Zhu Jing smiled and said, "Duke White Tiger is discussing important matters with His Majesty. Today is the joy of friendship between the Star Luo Empire and the Sun and Moon Empire, won't the virtuous sister join together? ”
As he spoke, he gestured to the Duchess for a gesture of invitation.
"Thank you Gong Zhu, but I've been unwell lately, so I won't be with you." The Duchess smiled reluctantly and declined the invitation.
She had no intention of participating in the banquet, but had just come to find the Duke of White Tiger, and was about to leave the hall after speaking.
However, just as she was about to leave, a special figure suddenly caught her eye, making her also put on a displeased expression.
It was a young girl sitting alone at a table eating slowly, her long blue hair combed into a ponytail hanging high behind her, looking from the side, her delicate side face exuding a dignified and heroic spirit.
Although it was the first time she had seen the woman, and it was only a side face, the familiar hair color and temperament reminded the Duchess of an image of disgust in her memory.
Huo Qiu'er was slowly enjoying the delicacies on the table, and Tian Meng, who was hiding under the simulation, suddenly leaned his head towards her, and said in a low voice: "Uh...... That one...... Sister Qiu'er, that old woman has been peeking at you......"
Huo Qiu'er turned her head to look in the direction of the Duchess, and after seeing the other party's appearance clearly, she couldn't help frowning slightly.
The other party is a very disgusting human being who is very rare in Huo Yuhao's memory, the Duchess.
After the two looked at each other for two seconds from a distance of more than ten meters, Huo Qiu'er ignored her, turned around and chewed slowly again.
Huo Qiu'er didn't believe that Huo Yuhao didn't find out about the other party, and she didn't bother to pay attention to the Duchess herself.
After seeing Huo Qiu'er's face, the Duchess's brows furrowed even deeper, and she asked a Star Luo nobleman beside her, "Who is that person?" ”
The Star Luo nobleman glanced at Huo Qiu'er and replied, "She is one of the envoys of the Sun and Moon this time, named Huo Qiu'er. ”
The combination of Huo Qiu'er's three words instantly evoked an extremely unpleasant memory in the Duchess's heart, her originally calm face suddenly revealed a fierce face, and her eyes burst out with a vicious spirit that could not be hidden.
Once upon a time there was a woman she hated so much, and she had a name similar to those three words.
As soon as she thought of this, the Duchess, who had originally behaved extremely dignified, suddenly turned into endless ferocity.
She continued to stare coldly at Huo Qiu'er for a few seconds before putting away the fierce look on her face.
These two people are one heaven and one earth, one star and one sun and moon, it is impossible to have a relationship at all, everything is just a coincidence.
The Duchess continued to walk out of the hall, but her mouth came out with a muttered as thin as a mosquito: "Hmph, not only does he look like a thousand people, but even his name is a short-lived ghost." ”
However, just as she finished muttering, Huo Qiu'er, who was originally eating, slowly stood up from her seat, her pretty face was so dark that she couldn't look like it.
I saw her grab a plate in front of her and slam it in the direction of the Duchess.
Smack-
The plate did not hit the Duchess, but on the floor next to her right heel.
The originally exquisite plate suddenly shattered, countless fragments splashed on the ground, and the crisp loud sound instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
The palace maid who was originally in charge of playing was also interrupted by this loud noise, and at the same time stopped the instrument in her hand and looked at this side in a daze.
The sound of laughter and music stopped abruptly, and the entire banquet hall was eerily silent at this moment. The Sun and Moon Envoys, the Star Luo Ministers, and many nobles, all eyes were focused on Huo Qiu'er.
I saw Huo Qiu'er slowly walking a few meters in front of the Duchess, pointing at the Duchess with her right index finger extremely rudely, and asking without awe.
"You have the ability to repeat what you just said."
Huo Qiu'er was taller than the Duchess, looking at her condescendingly, her calm and cold tone brought endless pressure.
Tianmeng, who was hiding under the simulation, was dumbfounded, and she was a little skeptical that she shouldn't have passed on the Duchess's words to Huo Qiu'er.
Huo Yuhao, who was in the distance, had been observing the Duchess with his mental detection, and she had heard the Duchess's muttering.
His eyes instantly turned cold, his face was darker than Huo Qiu'er, and he said lightly to his side: "I'm sorry for a long time, it's not that I don't want to give Xu Jiawei face, it's that someone doesn't want to give me face." ”
With that, he walked in the direction of the Duchess.
After a long time, his face froze, and he whispered to Nebula Douluo behind him, "Grandma Manyi, please go and inform the imperial brother as soon as possible." ”
"Yes."
Nebula Douluo nodded, and then turned into a wisp of afterimage and disappeared into the banquet hall.
On the other side, Huo Qiu'er was aggressively pointing at the Duchess, on the other hand, the Duchess was puzzled and stunned, she didn't expect that her low curse would be heard by the other party.
How is this possible?
Tianmeng swallowed his saliva, and when he saw that Huo Yuhao was already walking towards this side, he said weakly to Huo Qiu'er: "You...... Don't blame me for the trouble you caused yourself......"
Saying that, Tianmeng directly left Huo Qiu'er and hid in the sea of spirits.
Seeing Tianmeng who fled halfway, Huo Qiu'er sighed and said coldly to Huo Yuhao: "I'm not helping you seek revenge, she provoked me, so I don't need you to care." ”
Huo Yuhao also responded coldly: "Diplomacy is no trivial matter, you are now also a member of the Sun and Moon Mission, then your business is the business of the Sun and Moon Empire." ”
After finishing speaking, he looked at the Duchess indifferently and asked in a cold voice, "What happened just now?" ”
The Duchess was completely stunned, she stared at Huo Yuhao with wide eyes, although she hadn't seen him for many years, she could never forget the hostile look in her eyes.
It was the woman's son.
The malice and resentment in the Duchess's eyes intensified, and she could never forget that woman, the woman who took the love of the Duke of the White Tiger from her.
For the sake of that woman, the Duke of the White Tiger would even be so unfamiliar with her.
"How did you little bastard end up here?" She gritted her teeth and blurted out.
Resentment seemed to overwhelm reason, and she sent out untimely and vulgar insults directly on this elegant hall.
The sun and moon present made the ministers of Xingluo unchanged.
Zhu Jing reacted quickly and wanted to step forward to play a round, but Huo Yuhao didn't give him a chance.
He said coldly: "I am now the chief ambassador of the Star Luo Empire on behalf of the Sun and Moon Empire, I already understand the specific situation, may I ask the Duchess, why are you insulting the members of our mission for no reason?" ”
An invisible strong coercion emanated from him, blocking Zhu Jing and the other ministers outside.
"What a strong momentum."
Zhu Jing's face was solemn, he had heard a little about Huo Yuhao's deeds.
Huo Yuhao has already decided, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, since the Duchess took the initiative to send the handle to the door, then in front of so many people, completely trampled her on the ground.
How much dignity can be left in the Duchess's fate depends on the meaning of Xu Jiawei and the Offering Hall, and even the Duke of the White Tiger may not be able to speak.
"Chief Ambassador? You? ”
The Duchess was stunned, unable to associate the Huo Yuhao in her memory with this identity at all.
"Impossible!"
Huo Yuhao's voice was still cold: "Duchess, I know that I have a grudge with you in the past, but today is the day when the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire are reconciled, I didn't want to settle the grudge with you today, but I want you to know some consequences." ”
"Diplomacy is no small matter, and you and I represent not only individuals, but also two different countries."
"Although I am a member of the Star Luo Empire, on this occasion, I am the chief ambassador on behalf of the Sun and Moon Empire, and my words and deeds represent the majesty of the Sun and Moon Emperor, and all insults against me and the Sun and Moon Empire can be regarded as a provocation by the Star Luo Empire to the Sun and Moon Empire, as well as a rejection of peace between the two countries."
"His Majesty the Sun and Moon Emperor, before the envoy, only had two words about all possible reactions to the Star Luo Empire."
His gaze swept over the group of Star Luo ministers, and his tone was sonorous and powerful: "Talk, the door is open." Fight, accompany to the end. ”
This sentence was not just said to the Duchess, but more like a warning to all the Star Luo ministers present.
As Huo Yuhao's words clearly spread throughout the entire banquet hall, cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of Zhu Jing and the other Xingluo ministers.
This hat was buttoned too big, and no one present could catch it.
The setting of these three young people patting his head is that I will wipe his ass for half a year, and the first chapter is still the duchess of the Xu family, and it will become the Zhu family in more than 20 chapters.
In order to fill the hole of the Duchess Xu's identity, I almost didn't turn the corner, I feel that any of Xu Jiawei's relatives is almost meaningful, and it is even more impossible to really write Xu Jiawei's daughter, just this meaning, she is the daughter of the old emperor, and then Xu Jiawei took the throne during this period, so everyone can make do with it......
