THE REVENGE OF FOX CONSORT
CHAPTER 63. Letter from Emperor Tang
***Luoyang Capital***
The two-year war between the Eastern Wei Kingdom and the Southern Tang Kingdom was fought over the Tang Emperor's desire to take control of Chang An, which belonged to the Eastern Wei Kingdom.
Chang An city is a strategic trade route and has abundant natural resources.
Emperor Wei did not want Chang An city to be a South Tang Empire territory so sent General Li Jin's entourage to protect Chang An city.
The war continued for two years because the forces of the Southern Tang Kingdom always retreated so suddenly that General Li Jin thought they had surrendered.
Three to four days later, the Southern Tang Empire forces attacked Chang An city again and it happened again and again.
Therefore, General Li Jin's entourage could not return to the capital Luoyang and was forced to stare at Chang An city for a while.
In the end the Tang Emperor wanted a truce and established trade cooperation with the Eastern Wei Kingdom.
In order to prove his sincerity, Emperor Tang sent prince Tang Jin and princess Tang Yan to participate in the representative alliance entourage of the Southern Tang Kingdom.
During these two years, Emperor Wei had already obtained a lot of information regarding Emperor Tang and his descendants. And vice versa.
Emperor Tang's harem palace life was very complicated because Queen Tang was a cruel woman. Many of Emperor Tang's favorite concubines were killed by Empress Tang, including concubine Xi Lan. There are even concubines locked up in prison.
Only the obedient concubine to Queen Tang had a chance to live. Of course they were all under the pressure and power of Queen Tang.
Consort Xi Lan's death kept Emperor Tang and Queen Tang from getting along for decades. Emperor Tang hated Queen Tang greatly, but could not depose Queen Tang because it required the support of Queen Tang's extended family to support and strengthen her position as emperor.
Prince Tang Jin and Princess Tang Yan were nurtured by Queen Tang since childhood. Emperor Wei suspected there was a certain intent from Emperor Tang sending them both.
***
"Emperor Wei! There's a letter from the father to Emperor Wei!" prince Tang Jin.
Wei Bu Yi took out a small tube containing a letter scroll from Tang Jin's hand and examined it carefully before passing the letter to Emperor Wei.
Emperor Wei smiled happily at Wei Bu Yi's alert and calm attitude in the face of something. If it were not for Wei Bu Yi's inability to issue a lineage, Wei Bu Yi would have been the most fitting successor to the throne of Emperor Wei.
The expression of the momentary pleased face as well as the disappointed Emperor Wei was clearly visible to Queen Wen. Queen Wen could read easily the contents of Emperor Wei's heart so that his hatred for Wei Bu Yi grew even more.
As long as Wei Bu Yi existed, then Wei Wu Xian could not possibly become the next Emperor of Wei easily.
"Wei Bu Yi must be removed!" inner Queen Wen.
***
Emperor Wei read the contents of a letter from Emperor Tang.
"It turns out that Prince Tang Jin will stay in the Kingdom of Wei for two months, while Princess Tang Yan is willing to inter-royal marriage," Emperor Wei said after finishing reading the contents of the letter from Emperor Tang.
Emperor Wei instantly understood Emperor Tang's purpose. Emperor Tang made Prince Tang Jin a prisoner in the Kingdom of Wei in order for Emperor Wei to believe in the sincerity of the Southern Tang Kingdom towards peace between the two kingdoms.
Emperor Wei was willing to accept Prince Tang Jin, with the strict supervision of the soldiers in order for Prince Tang Jin not to do things that could harm the Kingdom of Wei.
As for Princess Tang Yan, Emperor Wei needed time to think carefully about who would marry Princess Tang Yan.
Emperor Wei could not have chosen Wei Bu Yi. In addition to Wei Bu Yi not being able to give children, also because Emperor Wei had promised Wei Bu Yi not to match other girls as concubines.
Wei Wu Xian was also not a good choice. Emperor Wei did not want to offend General Li Jin because last night Emperor Wei had agreed to a request from Queen Wen.
The request would leave General Li Jin feeling disappointed that Emperor Wei was unwilling to add to General Li Jin's disappointment any more.
***
Emperor Wei rolled up the letter and put it into a small tube, then gave the tube to Eunuch Cao with an eye gesture.
"Depart to the Palace!" eunuch Cao shouted with a loud voice.
Eunuch Cao helped Emperor Wei get on a horse-drawn carriage. Queen Wen and Consort Ming Lan followed from behind.
Five hundred warriors who had protected Emperor Wei's entourage from the start, followed Emperor Wei's chariot, while General Li Jin and General Liu Bei joined their forces to arrange a journey towards the palace.
"Prince Tang Jin, Princess Tang Yan! You two can go back to the group to continue the journey!" wei Bu Yi.
"Thank you Prince Wei Bu Yi!" princess Tang Yan replied with a spoiled voice that was made as gentle as possible, but did not get the expected reaction from Wei Bu Yi.
Wei Bu Yi's expressionless and cold face left Princess Tang Yan dumbfounded. Princess Tang Yan looked at Wei Bu Yi without blinking a single bit.
"Wei Bu Yi is very handsome and cold, according to my taste!" inner Princess Tang Yan.
Ying Ying was already staring at Wei Bu Yi's movements from the start so clearly heard Princess Tang Yan's spoiled voice.
Ying Ying furrowed his brows as he looked at Princess Tang Yan. Suddenly Prince Tang Jin stood in front of Princess Tang Yan so that Ying Ying's gaze was blocked.
Prince Tang Jin smiled broadly at Ying Ying while winking. With a swift movement, Wei Bu Yi stood in front of Prince Tang Jin and blocked his gaze to Ying Ying.
"The rumors are true! Prince Wei Bu Yi's treatment of Li Chang Le was very different!" inner Prince Tang Jin and Princess Tang Yan simultaneously.
"Prince Tang Jin, Princess Tang Yan! Emperor Wei's carriage had already departed far away!" eunuch Da Duo said with a wide smile.
"Thank you for the warning Eunuch Da Duo!" prince Tang Jin.
Wei Bu Yi paid no heed to the two of them and walked over to Ying Ying.
Wei Bu Yi escorted Ying Ying to the small horse carriage. Tan Xiang followed them from behind, while Chang Ru and A Ling were already inside the horse carriage.
Wei Bu Yi spoke in a small voice that only the two of them could hear. "Ying Ying! You must be careful of the two of them, especially Princess Tang Yan! He has fighting skills!"
"All right! You should be careful too!"
Wei Bu Yi nodded his head, then stroked Ying Ying's head gently before leaving to join his army.
Ying Ying smiled slightly as he held onto the part of the head that Wei Bu Yi had smeared earlier.
***
Inside the horse carriage, Ying Ying's face was cheerful throughout the journey, inversely proportional to the face of Chang Ru who was pouting since sitting inside the horse carriage.
Suddenly Ying Ying was reminded of something. " Where is Brother Chang Le?" inner Ying Ying.
Ying Ying held a bell pendulum necklace on her wrist to search for traces of Li Chang Le's spirit.
"Sister Chang Le joined the troop group at the back. It must be because Brother Chang Le wanted to be near General Li Jin," Inner Ying Ying.
Ying Ying felt calm because Li Chang Le's spirit was not in danger.
***
Li Chang Le's spirit was so happy to meet General Li Jin, Feng Xi, and Li Ming that it followed the three of them in turn. Even Li Chang Le's spirit revealed its heart, despite knowing the three of them could not hear it.
"Dad! Chang Le was very unfilial to leave father. You must be healthy and long-lived."
"Sister Li Ming must take good care of father. Brother Li Ming is no longer young. It's time for Brother Li Ming to get married!"
"Chang Le knew Brother Feng Xi was very affectionate and took care of Chang Le all this time."
Li Chang Le's spirit saw Feng Xi staring intently at Prince Tang Jin. The incident of Prince Tang Jin being flirtatious towards Ying Ying earlier was also seen by Li Chang Le's spirit.
Li Chang Le's spirit knew Feng Xi was trying to protect him because he thought Ying Ying was him.
Therefore, Li Chang Le's spirit followed Feng Xi closely as Feng Xi approached Prince Tang Jin abruptly.
"What's wrong?" prince Tang Jin asked as he returned Feng Xi's sharp gaze.
"I'll kill you if you intend to be mean to my sister!" threaten Feng Xi.
"You are only Li Chang Le's foster brother! Wei Bu Yi has the right to forbid me!"
Feng Xi did not reply to Prince Tang Jin's words and went to his original line.
"How dare you threaten me!" prince Tang Jin's.
Li Chang Le's spirit felt furious with Prince Tang Jin so it hit Prince Tang Jin's head from behind firmly.
"sick! Who hit me?"
Prince Tang Jin shouted and looked back, but found no one there. The soldiers of the Southern Tang Kingdom lined up neatly behind Prince Tang Jin with a distance of ten footsteps so it was impossible for them to hit Prince Tang Jin on the head.
"Felt!" said Li Chang Le's spirit while smiling with satisfaction.
Ying Ying's magic power helped Li Chang Le's spirit to use the power of her hands and feet.
The smile at the corner of Li Chang Le's spirit lips disappeared instantly upon seeing a jade hanging on Prince Tang Jin's belt.
"I've seen the same jade!" inner spirit Li Chang Le.
