Chapter 566: Ancient Words: The Charming Sister 14

Si Zian's eyes were not concealed at all, and everyone noticed the look of this barbarian prince, who was staring straight at the seat of Prime Minister Jiang.

So a group of people looked straight at Jiang Xiang's position. Without even guessing, they knew who the barbarian prince was looking at.

Among the two daughters of the Jiang family, only one is the most famous, beautiful and talented!

That’s Jiang Yao!

Prime Minister Jiang was sitting quietly, but then he inexplicably felt a series of burning gazes. His face remained serious, and he raised his eyes calmly, and then found that everyone in the hall was looking at them.

Especially the barbarian prince, he looked at them eagerly, as if he had seen his prey.

Jiang Xiang felt a chill on his back and he straightened his back involuntarily. Cold sweat started to flow on his forehead without him noticing.

Jiang Yao noticed from the corner of her eye that Jiang Yue's head had already been lowered onto the table. Her entire body was shaking constantly, and even with the cloak blocking her movement, the amplitude of her movements was still quite large.

Jiang Yue was already the focus of attention, and her reaction was even more eye-catching.

Comparing the timid and cowardly Jiang Yue with the graceful and generous Jiang Yao, everyone's attention was focused on Jiang Yao.

The emperor also noticed Si Zian's eyes. A hint of calculation flashed in his eyes. He said nothing, but announced the official start of the annual banquet.

In the magnificent hall, people were toasting each other, the dancers attracted everyone's attention, and the atmosphere in the whole hall was relaxed and peaceful.

Jiang Yao was quietly enjoying the palace food at her seat, while four fiery gazes were staring at her.

She knew that the three princes were looking at her because of the love Gu, but the look in the eyes of this barbarian prince was really too passionate.

Jiang Yue sat next to Jiang Yao. He hardly looked up and ate absent-mindedly. Because of his poor dining etiquette, Mrs. Jiang frowned and secretly corrected him several times.

When the annual banquet was halfway through, Si Zian suddenly stood up, walked to the main hall, and performed a not-so-standard Central Plains etiquette.

The music in the palace slowly stopped and the dancers also slowed down their movements.

The world is now divided into two powers. The State of Chu appears to be strong and well-off, but when it comes to combat effectiveness, it is no match for the barbarians.

Otherwise, the world would have been unified long ago.

The Si Zi'an in front of him was the youngest patriarch of the Ula tribe. He was brave and fierce, capable of fighting against a thousand enemies alone, and had caused heavy losses to the border of the Chu State.

Moreover, according to the border battle reports, the barbarians were not as crude and brutal as they imagined. They were very disciplined, and their methods of both defense and offense were extremely novel.

It is said that the barbarians had the intention of cooperation, so Si Zian was invited to the annual banquet, not only to show the strong financial strength of the Chu State, but also to test the attitude of the barbarians.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of Chu, I have a request." Si Zian was standing right in front of Prime Minister Jiang's seat, and Jiang Yao realized that Si Zian's eyes were dark gold.

The King of Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his right hand in mid-air and said, "Prince, please speak."

Si Zian clenched his right fist and placed it on his left heart. He lowered his head slightly, and the curly hair on his temples also fell down: "I want to marry a woman from Da Chu."

The King of Chu had a feeling that this was indeed the case. His eyes fell on Jiang Yao and he said bluntly, "Who does the prince like?"

Upon hearing this, Si Zian turned around and walked towards where Jiang Xiang was.

Jiang Yao didn't react at all, but Jiang Yue beside her was shaking uncontrollably. She bit her lower lip tightly, obviously very scared.

This reaction seemed as if Si Zian would choose her.

and many more……

Jiang Yue's actions in the recent period went over in her mind, whether it was her improved manners or her contentment and thoughtfulness which were completely different from before.

Could it be that Jiang Yue was reborn?

If she was really reborn, then was she so well-behaved and sensible during this period because she knew what would happen in the future?

Is it because you know you will meet Si Zian at the annual banquet that you no longer stand out and attract attention?

Jiang Yao was sorting out her thoughts when a shadow blocked the light in front of her.

She looked up and saw a pair of dark golden eyes, full of wolfishness and aggression.

He uttered a string of complicated ethnic language, and then he clenched his fist and placed it on his left chest, knelt on one knee and said to Jiang Yao: "Beautiful girl, Wula Si Zian wants to take you back to the Wula tribe to be the princess."

The entire hall fell into silence because of Si Zian's words. The music stopped and the dancers did not dare to make any movements. Everyone focused their eyes on Prime Minister Jiang.

Before Jiang Yao could react, Jiang Yue beside her stood up in a panic and said, "I... don't want to."

Jiang Yue's sudden action stunned everyone in the annual banquet.

Wasn't the person the Ula prince was kneeling to Jiang Yao? How could it be that Jiang Yue stood up?

Si Zian frowned. His sword-like eyebrows were thick and long, and they looked particularly intimidating when frowned. His dark golden eyes were sharp and cold. "You rude fellow."

Jiang Yue was suddenly awakened when she heard this. She found that Si Zian was heading in the direction of Jiang Yao, very far away from her.

At that moment, she didn't know whether she felt more ashamed, relieved or disappointed.

Her face turned pale, and she pursed her lips and said, "I am rude, Prince. Please forgive me."

As she spoke, Jiang Yue performed an extremely standard palace etiquette.

Si Zian ignored her, so she sat back in her seat in silence.

The hall fell into silence again. Si Zian seemed to be completely oblivious to the atmosphere and stubbornly knelt on one knee in front of Jiang Yao.

At this time, the Emperor of Chu spoke.

"Prince, it's not that I don't want to agree to your request, but the young lady in front of you is the most beautiful woman in our Chu State, and the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Jiang." The King of Chu looked embarrassed, as if it was difficult for him to make a decision.

In fact, everyone knows that Jiang Yao's fate can be determined by just one word from him.

Si Zian knew that Zhongyuan liked to tell lies and pretend to be difficult on the surface, but in fact he just wanted to gain more benefits.

He has always disdained this, but this time he has found his princess, so he can play this word game with the hypocritical King of Chu.

"Oh? I am willing to give up three cities for my future princess."

When these words were spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked, except for the members of the Ula tribe.

Three cities!

This is something more valuable than money and wealth!

With the new city, people will have more land, and not only agriculture can be developed, but commerce can also develop faster.

And all this was achieved by sacrificing the daughter of a minister.

Undoubtedly, it is an extremely cost-effective deal.
