Chapter 250: Head-to-Head Confrontation

In the imperial city, Rong Xun sat on the high seat. He looked down on the people below with disdain. On his left were people from the Western Regions, and on his right were a bunch of timid ministers.

He slowly said, "All of you here, there are guests from the Western Regions. You can come from afar. I am very happy in my heart. Everyone fills up their glasses, drinks and chats happily, and don't be constrained."

After a moment, a person came from the side. This person was wearing brocade and silk, and his dress looked like that of a queen of a country. It was extremely luxurious.

The person who came was An Suzhi. She attended in full dress and came straight to Rong Xun's side.

Rong Xun also had a smiling face. He naturally raised his hand to greet this person to sit beside him. "Concubine An, I was still thinking of sending someone to pick you up, but you came by yourself."

His words had a deeper meaning, but for the people present, they just thought that these two people were just joking in their words.

However, An Suzhi in front of her naturally understood. She smiled awkwardly and said gently and generously, "Your Majesty is right. Your concubine just doesn't want to trouble Your Majesty. Besides, Your Majesty said yesterday that you wanted your concubine to meet your relatives so as not to miss them and become ill."

"So, your concubine came uninvited. Instead, it made Your Majesty unhappy. This is your concubine's fault. Please punish Your Majesty."

Seeing that An Suzhi's words were very reasonable, Rong Xun, who had originally frowned slightly, had already relaxed at this moment.

Rong Xun looked at Rong Jiangyu sitting on his right with a smile and said, "Concubine An is becoming more and more naughty. She can't even listen to my edict. She is really spoiled by me."

Hearing this, Rong Jiangyu couldn't help laughing and said, "What Your Majesty said is really making my sister enjoy happiness. My sister was born and raised delicately. Sometimes she can't bear hardships. So sometimes she will make Your Majesty unhappy. I hope Your Majesty can bear more."

Rong Xun squinted his eyes and looked at this person with a kind heart. He sneered and said, "Your Majesty is too serious. You came from afar from the Western Regions this time. I think it's not just for the marriage alliance, right?"

Rong Xun said directly.

Rong Jiangyu didn't shirk either. He directly said, "This is natural. I want to see if my sister really enjoys the blessings she deserves."

Then, this person continued, "In the Ming Dynasty, there will be a virginity mole. But just now, I saw clearly that the red cinnabar mole on my sister's arm is very eye-catching."

Hearing this, Rong Xun understood the purpose of this person. He smiled and said, "So, Your Majesty still wants to reach out into my harem?"

I only heard Rong Jiangyu continue, "Not long ago, a strong wind blew across the border of the Western Regions. This strong wind destroyed a large amount of food and grass on the border of the Ming Dynasty. I'm afraid the people of the Ming Dynasty will suffer a lot this year."

Hearing this, Rong Xun understood the calculation of this person. He looked at Ye Bai on the other side.

Ye Bai met Rong Xun's dark green eyes and nodded slightly with a guilty conscience.

Rong Xun understood roughly.

"But it's difficult for the king of the Western Regions to come from afar for the people of our Ming Dynasty. I certainly know these things, but as for how to deal with them, I don't need anyone to help me make a decision."

After saying that, Rong Xun stared at Rong Jiangyu's eyes coldly. He certainly knew the routine of this person and why he mentioned An Suzhi again and again.

To put it bluntly, An Suzhi was just a pawn he inserted beside him, and he could play the advantage of determining the overall situation at any time.

And what he is doing now is to give full play to the role of An Suzhi to the extreme.

Rong Jiangyu laughed when he heard this. "Since you have already said so clearly, then I should leave. I'm not very happy staying in this place."

Hearing this, Rong Xun said again, "Your Majesty is wrong. I just said that some things don't need to be interfered too much, but I didn't say that I don't appreciate it. Concubine An can become the only concubine in the harem. I will naturally not treat her badly."

Hearing this, Rong Jiangyu, who was still going to get up and leave, sat back in his seat again. He looked at Rong Xun quietly.

After thinking for a while, he slowly said, "That's very good. I was still thinking of staying here for a few more days to enjoy the scenery of the Ming Dynasty. After all, I left from here, right?"

Rong Xun nodded and looked up at Xu Songming sitting upright in the distance.

"Lord Xu, the king of the Western Regions came here again. He may not be very clear about many things. You can help the king and take him to enjoy the scenery of the Ming Dynasty."

As soon as the voice fell, Xu Songming was slightly stunned. When did this matter have something to do with him? In a hurry, he could only agree to this matter with a stiff head.

After a "Feast of the Hongmen", Rong Xun returned to the Cool Palace again. And beside him, he saw An Suzhi following him closely.

Rong Xun smiled and said, "How long have you been following me? What do you want to do?"

Hearing this, An Suzhi smiled and said, "At the banquet today, didn't Your Majesty say clearly that you would definitely favor your concubine well, so your concubine came with Your Majesty."

Her face was full of confidence. It seemed that this person had said a lot in private with Rong Jiangyu.

Rong Xun said coldly, "So, you are threatening me now?"

An Suzhi immediately waved her hand when she heard this. She hurriedly explained, "How dare your concubine? Your concubine just feels sorry for Your Majesty. You are alone every day, busy with national affairs, but you can't take good care of your body all the time. The queen also went to Ganlu Temple alone to practice, so your concubine..."

"Your concubine just wants to take care of Your Majesty more!"

Hearing her words, it was simply reasonable and emotional, but this set was useless to Rong Xun at all.

Rong Xun pretended to smile and said, "Concubine An, are you feeling sorry for me?"

Hearing this, An Suzhi immediately nodded and then said, "That's natural. Your concubine has always loved Your Majesty deeply. Naturally, she can't bear to see Your Majesty suffer a little bit, so..."

"So, you want to consummate the marriage with me?"

As soon as she heard this, An Suzhi's delicate little face instantly turned red. She strode to Rong Xun's side, gently patted his chest, and kept coquettishly complaining.

"Your Majesty, you are so bad. Your concubine doesn't know these things yet. Aren't you leading your concubine astray?"

Rong Xun put one hand around this person's waist and the other hand slowly around the back of this person's neck. He gently stuck it in An Suzhi's ear.

He said, "You should know that you are the only concubine in my harem, so I will naturally dote on you."
