Chapter 285: The Emperor of Silla offers up his Queen Zhu Zhuyun?

"The Emperor of the Xingluo Empire has arrived!"

After a long journey, the Emperor Davis of the Xingluo Empire, along with his Queen Zhu Zhuyun and a team of carefully selected followers, finally arrived at the border of the Wuhun Empire first.

Their arrival was not announced in advance in order to maintain a certain sense of mystery and respect, and also to prevent possible accidents.

However, when they crossed the border and arrived at the reception place arranged by the Wuhun Empire, Emperor Davis encountered an unexpected scene.

In the reception team, he saw a familiar figure - Zhu Zhuqing.

The woman who was supposed to be the concubine of his younger brother Dai Mubai was now dressed in luxurious palace clothes and appeared as the imperial concubine of the Wuhun Empire to greet them.

Zhu Zhuqing stood at the front of the reception team, her attire completely different from usual.

Dressed in a glittering palace dress and a glittering golden phoenix crown on her head, she exudes a noble and elegant temperament.

She had a decent smile on her face, but her eyes revealed a hint of complicated emotions.

Emperor Davis's expression suddenly turned a little ugly. He didn't expect to see Zhu Zhuqing here, and he didn't expect that she would become the imperial concubine of the Wuhun Empire.

This sudden change made him feel betrayed, angry and disappointed.

"Zhu Zhuqing, what's going on?"

Emperor Davis' voice was low and contained a hint of suppressed anger.

Zhu Zhuqing bowed slightly, her voice calm and polite: "Your Majesty, you have worked hard on the journey. I am here on the orders of your Majesty Lei Dong to welcome the distinguished guests from the Xing Luo Empire."

A hint of doubt flashed in Emperor Davis' eyes. He didn't understand why Zhu Zhuqing had such a change, nor did he understand what Lei Dong was planning.

"Zhu Zhuqing, you are my brother's concubine, why are you here?"

Emperor Davis' tone was tinged with reproach.

Zhu Zhuqing sighed softly, and a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes: "Your Majesty, some things cannot be explained in a few words. I am now the concubine of the Wuhun Empire. This is my own choice, and it is also for the peace between the two empires."

Emperor Davis was silent. He looked at Zhu Zhuqing, with a complex emotion in his heart.

He knew that there were some secrets in Zhu Zhuqing's words that he didn't know, and this secret might involve a deeper power game.

"Your Majesty, let's go to the palace of the Wuhun Empire first."

Zhu Zhuyun reminded Emperor Davis softly, with a hint of worry in her eyes.

Emperor Davis nodded. He knew that now was not the time to pursue the matter. He needed to remain calm in order to deal with what might happen next.

"Okay, Zhu Zhuqing, lead the way."

Emperor Davis finally calmed down and said in a deep voice.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly, then turned around and led the way, leading Emperor Davis and his entourage to the palace of the Wuhun Empire.

Her steps were graceful and calm, as if she had completely absorbed into the role.

"Haha, welcome to the distinguished guests from the Xingluo Empire. Oh! I didn't expect that the queen of your empire and my beloved concubine look so similar. They are indeed sisters!"

As the thunderous sound rang out, the atmosphere at the entire reception site suddenly became subtle.

Lei Dong stood on the steps of the palace, his eyes not on Emperor Davis, but were completely attracted by the Queen Zhu Zhuyun of the Xing Luo Empire.

Zhu Zhuyun, as the queen of the Xingluo Empire, is also a very charming woman.

Her appearance is strikingly similar to Zhu Zhuqing's, but with more of the charm and majesty of a mature woman.

She was wearing a gorgeous long dress with golden phoenixes embroidered on the hem, which made her look noble and elegant.

Her hair was tied up in a high bun, with a few strands of hair hanging down beside her cheeks, adding a touch of softness.

Lei Dong's eyes looked at Zhu Zhuyun, and he seemed to have completely forgotten that he was receiving the emperor of the Xingluo Empire.

There was a hint of surprise and appreciation in his eyes, and even a bit of amusement.

"Your Majesty, your queen is truly a beauty, and she looks just like my beloved concubine Zhu Zhuqing, as if they were cut from the same mold."

Lei Dong exclaimed with a hint of teasing in his tone.

Emperor Davis's face became even uglier, and he felt an unprecedented humiliation and anger.

He didn't expect Lei Dong to be so rude as to openly praise his wife in front of him.

Zhu Zhuyun's face also became a little embarrassed. She didn't expect that she would become the focus of Lei Dong's attention.

She frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased with Lei Dong's behavior.

"Your Majesty Lei Dong, I appreciate your praise on behalf of my wife."

Emperor Davis said in a deep voice, with a hint of warning in his voice, "However, we are here today to discuss peace between the two empires. I hope you can respect us."

Lei Dong seemed to realize his own gaffe. He coughed lightly, then said with a smile, "Of course, of course. Your Majesty Davis, your arrival brings honor to our Wuhun Empire. Please come in, please come in."

As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation, signaling Emperor Davis and Zhu Zhuyun to enter the palace.

However, his eyes still wandered around Zhu Zhuyun from time to time, and he seemed to be very interested in her.

Emperor Davis suppressed his anger and walked into the palace with Zhu Zhuyun and his entourage.

They knew that the importance of this peace talk far outweighed personal dignity and face, and they had to remain calm and rational.

Zhu Zhuqing followed silently behind the team, looking at her sister Zhu Zhuyun with complicated eyes.

She knew that Lei Dong's actions were undoubtedly testing and challenging the bottom line of the Xingluo Empire, and at the same time showing her his power and control.

So he took advantage of the opportunity when Lei Dong and Davis were drinking in front.

The little kitten slowly walked behind his sister and reminded her in a low voice.

"Sister, if you want His Majesty to accept the surrender of your Xingluo Empire, only one of you and His Majesty Davis can go back today!"

Although I didn't put it as bluntly as I did, we are all adults.

You should understand what they mean, right?

Besides, Zhu Zhuqing is one of our own, so it is impossible for her to deceive her sister.

After hearing her sister's reminder, the Queen of the Xingluo Empire suddenly dropped the wine glass in her hand to the ground.

Of course, this detail also attracted Lei Dong's attention.

At this moment, he was also whispering with Davis.

"The Xing Luo Empire wants to surrender, but it won't work just by saying it. You guys should at least show some expression, right?"

The intention is already very clear, how could Davis not understand it?

The emperor looked towards his queen with reluctance.

His eyes were full of struggle.

"Your Majesty, what if our Xingluo Empire is willing to offer up the Queen and let her be a hostage in the Wuhun Empire?"
