Chapter 615: Waiting and watching the show, humiliation at the city gate
The Fourth Prince didn't believe it. He thought that the things in the car were all valuable gifts. He opened a few of them and found that they were even more valuable than red coral.
His mood is even more difficult to control!
He hurriedly looked for information about the givers in the gift boxes, but found nothing.
Who on earth gave him such a valuable thing without even leaving his name?
The Fourth Prince hesitated for a while, but still ordered his men to take the things back to his own palace.
Chang Ru was a little surprised to see him bringing back so many things.
"Your Highness, what are these things?"
"These are wedding gifts given to us by others."
"There are so many! Were they delivered by one person?" Chang Ru saw that they were all brought back together and thought they were delivered by one person.
"How could anyone give away so many valuable things at once? What's even more strange is that the person who gave the gifts didn't leave any information."
"It's so strange that there's no signature on it?"
Su Su came up and stood beside the Fourth Prince and whispered, "Fourth Prince, in my humble opinion, perhaps someone wants to express their feelings, but at this time, they don't want to reveal their identity, so as not to bring any unnecessary trouble to Your Highness. Your Highness, please accept these gifts first, and when the time comes, someone will come to claim them."
Chang Ru immediately looked at Su Su, her eyes full of inquiry.
"What Susu said makes sense." The Four Emperors nodded in agreement, "Come here, register these things first and put them in my private vault."
"Yes." The eunuch pulled these things down.
"Your Highness, please excuse me and talk to you for a moment." Chang Ru walked into the hall.
The fourth prince followed.
Chang Ru looked outside and saw the direction of Su Su.
"Your Highness, is Su Su just a palace maid?"
"She was a maid that my mother personally picked for me. She has always been by my side. I will not hide some things from you. I have had sex with her. I thought that I would give her a status after a while. Her status is low, so there is no need to make an exception and treat her with respect."
"So that's how it is. Thank you, Your Highness, for telling me the truth. Now I know how to arrange it." Chang Ru suppressed what she really wanted to say and immediately changed the subject.
"Chang Ru, don't worry, you are my legal wife. No one can replace you now or in the future."
"Yeah." Chang Ru nodded.
"I have something else to do, so I'll go out for a while."
"Okay." Chang Ru watched the Fourth Prince leave.
What she really wanted to say just now was that she wanted the Fourth Prince to pay more attention to Su Su. She always felt that there was something wrong with Su Su, but she had just arrived and couldn't tell what was wrong.
Since the Fourth Prince said that Su Su was chosen for him by his mother and that they had had sex before, she had to be more careful.
After all, Su Su has served the Fourth Prince for so many years. If she easily becomes an enemy of Su Su, she might not end up well.
……
The news that the Fourth Prince received a cart of gifts reached the Queen's ears.
She immediately sent someone to investigate in detail to find out who sent these things.
However, the result was that no one knew who sent them, but they were very valuable! The four princes registered all of them and accepted them.
"It seems that there are really people secretly trying to curry favor with the Fourth Prince! We are sending a gift now, and when the Fourth Prince really becomes the crown prince in the future, this gift will be a stone for them to test the waters!" The Queen gripped the armrest of the chair tightly and didn't even notice that her nails were broken.
She has already sent the letter, and as soon as she receives Ji Ling's reply, she will start taking action!
……
Ji Chuhe knew the situation of the Fourth Prince and the Queen very well.
If the queen wants to take action against the emperor, she will definitely spend a lot of money to win over the people of Chao Sihai, and she will also conspire with her confidants who follow her.
The plan has been set, and Ji Chuhe now just needs to watch this wonderful show unfold quietly.
Another ten days passed.
The Queen Mother of Rong and the new Emperor arrived at the imperial capital.
They came in person to present the letter of surrender, as well as a hundred fine horses, a thousand fat sheep, a thousand slaves, and a hundred beauties to express their love.
In addition, the border of Rong State was moved back another 100 miles to the north, and these 100 miles became part of the territory of Daxia.
Since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, there has always been discord between the Great Xia Dynasty and the Rong State. Wars have occurred from time to time, with wins and losses being half and half. The Rong State has never surrendered to the Great Xia like this time.
The Queen Mother Rong and the new emperor arrived outside the north city gate in their carriage.
I saw that the city gate was still closed, and the city wall was full of Daxia soldiers.
A torn and dirty flag was stuck upside down on the city gate.
That was the battle flag of the Rong State.
The Queen Mother of Rong looked at the battle flag, took a deep breath, and forced herself to calm down.
"Mother." A child who looked only seven or eight years old tugged at the corner of Queen Mother Rong's clothes. There was no trace of fear in his eyes, only curiosity.
He was wearing a black dress that didn't suit his age, holding a cloth tiger in his hand, and he didn't look as sensible as a normal child, but more like a two or three year old child.
The Queen Mother raised her hand and pinched the Emperor's little face, "Don't be afraid, Yi'er, your mother is here. No matter what happens later, you must stay close to your mother, understand?"
"Got it, I'll be obedient!"
"Yes." The Queen Mother's eyes were full of kindness.
"Empress Dowager, I'm afraid the Emperor of Daxia will not let us enter the city so easily. He will definitely find ways to humiliate the Empress Dowager and the Emperor." The Duke of Protector of Rong Kingdom stepped forward with a worried look on his face.
"Don't worry, Lord Protector of the Country. I will bear all the humiliation for the sake of the people of Rong Country." The Queen Mother straightened her back and looked firmly in the direction of the tower.
Finally, the city gate opened, and Gao Jin, dressed in armor, came before the Queen Mother Rong and the Emperor's carriage.
"The Queen Mother and the Emperor of Rong have arrived in the capital of Daxia. They should return your country's flag. Come, bring the flag of Rong here."
One of them pulled out the battle flag and took it over while pinching his nose.
Just now, the people of Rong State were far away and only saw that the battle flag was damaged. Only now did they smell the foul stench emanating from the battle flag.
"This... this is our country's war flag, how can we destroy it like this!" The Duke of Protectorate accused angrily.
Gao Jin waved his hand, and the man holding the battle flag immediately took a step back.
The Duke of Hu's face suddenly froze.
What? Aren’t you going to return the battle flag yet?
"Since the Rong State cares so much about this battle flag, why didn't they protect it well? Instead, they let such an important battle flag fall into the hands of our soldiers." Gao Jin said sarcastically.
"The two armies have fought, and the outcome has been decided. Our Queen Mother and Emperor have come to Daxia in person to deliver the letter of surrender as agreed. Daxia should return our war flag." The Duke of Hu added.
"Return it, of course! However, your little emperor needs to wear this battle flag himself to express your apology and repentance to the soldiers who died in the battle of Daxia!"
