Chapter 866 - 866 Royal Family Banquet
866 Royal Family Banquet
It was the new year, and every family was wearing beautiful clothes that they usually couldn’t bear to wear and eating food that they usually couldn’t bear to eat. They were happily celebrating the New Year.
The royal family placed more emphasis on the new year.
Every New Year, the Imperial Palace would hold a royal feast and invite a few important officials of the Imperial court to attend with their families.
Every New Year’s festival, regardless of whether they were valued or neglected, all of them had to show up to attend the feast.!!
This was because …
The new year also represented the reunion of the family!
It was the new year, and they were going to welcome everything new in the coming year!
Therefore, the royal family attached more importance to the new year.
It was to hope that everything would go smoothly!
The Emperor had left this year’s royal feast to Crown Prince Yuwen Yuyu to host.
After all, he was the Crown Prince!
As long as he didn’t make a mistake, the Emperor had to give the Crown Prince the power to establish his authority. If the emperor met some misfortune, the crown prince had to take on his role.
Otherwise, the Imperial court would definitely be in chaos. The country would be destroyed!
It had to be said that Yuwen Zhenzhen was a wise ruler with great foresight and courage.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have placed so much importance on the God of War, Jiang Zhennan, who had great prestige in the world and had military power in his hands.
However, every Emperor, no matter how wise they were, had shortcomings.
This Emperor was the same.
He was paranoid!
Especially when he was getting older!
He was especially suspicious of his sons and grandsons. He was always afraid that his power would be usurped.
However, the emperor’s suspicion did not apply to Jiang Zhennan at all.
To the outsiders, they could not figure out why the Emperor had never been suspicious of Jiang Zhennan and trusted him so completely, even if Jiang Zhennan had regained his military power.
The emperor’s good treatment of Jiang Zhennan made these princes both envious and jealous.
They were very suspicious that this Jiang Zhennan was an illegitimate son of their father, and that the throne would be directly handed over to Jiang Zhennan in the future.
Therefore, they were both afraid of Jiang Zhennan and also wanted to win him over.
This time, the Emperor had already issued an imperial edict for Jiang Zhennan to attend the Royal annual banquet.
However, Duke Zhengguo’s mansion was also invited.
Therefore, Jiang Zhennan would definitely meet Jiang Yunfeng, Wen Yujing, and the others at the banquet.
The New Year’s banquet was usually set up in the Imperial garden.
The time had come. The various princes as well as the invited family members and ministers of the Imperial court, arrived one after another.
“Mother, won’t we meet that jinx this time?” Jiang Wen held her mother’s arm and asked with fear in her eyes.
Jiang Wen’s embarrassing appearance when she was driven out of the general’s residence last time still made her heart palpitate.
Hence, whenever she thought of the situation back then, she was very afraid of her so-called big brother.
No one knew a daughter better than her mother!
Wen Yujing patted the back of Jiang Wen’s hand and comforted her, ” Wen ‘er, don’t be afraid! Even if he is the defender-general of the state, he won’t dare to do anything to you. After all, you are his sister in name!”
Then, she looked at a corner and sneered. “I have even planned to introduce a marriage to him at this Annual Meeting. As long as there’s someone in charge of the internal affairs of the general’s residence, Jiang Zhennan will have to listen to that person’s words.”
Jiang Wen’s eyes lit up when she heard that.
This was a good idea!
But …
However, Jiang Wen said worriedly, ” but this fiend’s reputation is well-known throughout the capital. Which rich family’s daughter would be willing to marry him? Wouldn’t she be worried that she would be jinxed? Also, this fiend is an ugly monster whose face has been disfigured. Which young lady would like him?”
Wen Yujing laughed disdainfully. “This jinx should be happy that someone likes her. How can he be so picky? ”
“So, this time, his mother had found him a hag! This woman doesn’t care if he’s a jinx or not, and she doesn’t care if he’s ugly at all. She only cares about his power and the backyard of the general’s mansion.”
Jiang Wen was slightly surprised. “is she not afraid of death? ”
Wen Yujing laughed mockingly. “hehe, this woman has already married two husbands, but they were all jinxed to death by her. Wen ‘er, between this jinx and this woman, who do you think will be more resilient?”
