I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 465

Chapter 465 - The Empress Complaints

"The empress has arrived!"

Seeing Xiang Yun and Xiang Lingfeng's uncle and nephew chatting happily, another voice rang out from outside Mu De Palace.

In the next moment, two small yellow doors and a group of palace maids entered Mu De Hall's main entrance. They stood by the side and were immediately supported by a palace maid as they walked through the entrance.

The woman's earlobes were golden, and in the middle was a ruby. Wear ring and jewel ring on both hands, lightly squeeze a white satin silk handkerchief, purple phoenix shoes, graceful and elegant.

The woman's skin was as fair and tender as a young girl's, yet she had a figure that a young girl did not have. The twin peaks in front of her chest were so full that they seemed about to burst out, creating an astonis.h.i.+ng arc.

She was a beautiful woman with outstanding talent. The only thing lacking in beauty was the faintly discernible bloodl.u.s.t in her eyes. It was obvious that she was not in a good mood.

The moment they saw the woman, everyone present, with the exception of Xiang Lingfeng, rose to greet her. This was because this woman was the current empress, 'Tu Feng Jiao'.

"Esteemed Empress, a thousand years, a thousand years!"

All the younger generations of the imperial family bent down to bow, and Xiang Yun raised his hand to bow as well!

The empress Tu Feng's charming eyes gazed first at the emperor Xiang Lingfeng as she bowed slightly. "Your consort pays her respects to Your Majesty."

Xiang Lingfeng nodded slightly in acknowledgement before sweeping his gaze over the crowd. His gaze lingered on Xiang Yun for a little longer before Tu Feng glanced upwards as he spoke with an indifferent tone.

"I've heard that His Majesty is hosting a banquet today to welcome the return of the third son. Because of some trivial matters, chenqie has been delayed. I hope Your Majesty and Your Highness won't take offense."

Hearing this, Xiang Yun slowly walked out of his seat, cupping his hands and smiling as he said, "How dare you. The Empress has personally come, and your nephew is deeply grateful for your kindness. How could I dare to take offense?"

Seeing Xiang Yun walk over, the originally smiling Tu Feng's delicate lips curled up into a mocking smile, feigning surprise as he spoke.

"Aiya, this is His Highness the Third Prince. Three years ago, I followed His Majesty to meet His Highness the Third Prince, but I don't have a deep impression of him. Today, I see that His Highness really is a talented man, a dragon among men.

"Empress, you're too kind. This nephew is just an ordinary descendant of a n.o.ble family. If I don't have a reputation, then what kind of grand feat could I possibly have?"

"Heh heh." Tu Feng suddenly laughed coldly as her eyes blinked slightly. She stared straight at Xiang Yun and said, "Is that so? I don't think so, do I?"

Xiang Yun's eyes flashed, already well aware of the situation. It seemed that the news of what had happened outside the city gates had already reached the ears of the empress. This was the unfriendly way of seeking revenge!

Three years ago, Tu Fengjiao was only the Imperial Concubine of the Western Palace. Her predecessor, Empress Dugu, had died of illness only ten years ago, so the harem was still empty.

It wasn't until two years ago that the Imperial Concubine finally took over the throne of the Eastern Palace. In addition to the fact that the Grand Preceptor's Tu Xiu was her biological father, the power outside the palace was enormous. In an instant, the Tu Clan's status in Dragon City rose as they flourished.

Xiang Yun had interacted with the Tu Family before, such as when he had met with Fatty Niu and secretly peeked at Grand Preceptor Tu's concubine. That charming, snow-white, and beautiful concubine had been accidentally discovered by the Grand Preceptor's servants.

That concubine was Grand Preceptor Tu's favorite concubine. Although she was too old and weak, that concubine was still held in her hands like a precious treasure. How could she be worthy of being peeked at like that?

Afterwards, he surrounded the two of them before realizing that they were the two little scoundrels, Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu. Grand Preceptor Tu, who had already sharpened his blade and wanted to cut open their bellies, nearly exploded with rage.

Grand Preceptor Tu cursed at the two of them. He kicked Fatty Niu a few times, but he didn't even dare to touch the hairs on Xiang Yun's body. Who told this kid to have another king on his head?

In the end, Grand Preceptor Tu had no choice but to release the two of them. The so-called 'family is ugly cannot be made public'.

Who knew that these two fellows would brag wildly that night at Phoenix Cry Tower after leaving the Grand Preceptor's estate? How smooth and exquisite the Grand Preceptor's concubine's skin was, and how round her b.u.t.tocks were!

Fatty Niu's words were full of spittle that flew everywhere. He had eyes, nose, and nose, but in a single night, his words had already spread all over Dragon City, angering Grand Preceptor Tu to the point of fainting.

However, even though the Tu Family clansmen, including Imperial Concubine Tu, were infuriated, they did not dare to rashly touch this bad luck of Xiang Yun's.

It was already a shameful matter for a seventy year old Grand Preceptor Tu to take a little girl as a concubine, so the matter was left unsettled. However, it was also because of this that Xiang Yun and the Tu Family had formed a feud.

And now that Tu Feng had ascended to the throne, the Tu Clan's power was greatly increased. And thinking about how the northwestern great earth had suffered the a.s.sa.s.sination of a shoulder to shoulder w.a.n.g Nan, followed by the invasion and destruction of a large portion of the territories of the three counties, the Tu Clan's momentum was naturally greatly different as time went by.

The subtle atmosphere between the two of them immediately caused everyone to feel that something was amiss. Xiang Lingfeng frowned and said, "Since the empress has arrived, hurry up and take your seat. Everyone's waiting for you."

Empress Tu bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid I have to apologize to Your Majesty first?"

"Oh, excuse me?" Xiang Lingfeng wore a puzzled expression.

Empress Tu had a helpless and sorrowful look on her face as she said this.

"Firstly, I came here to welcome you back as my third son. Secondly, I wanted to ask Your Majesty's permission to have me leave the palace. Secondly, I wanted to return to the Grand Preceptor's estate to see my little brother, Three Autumn's, injuries."

As she spoke to here, Empress Tu's gaze shot a glance in Xiang Yun's direction without leaving a trace. Xiang Yun, however, who was originally holding a wine cup, remained calm and unperturbed as he sniffed the aroma of the wine.

He thought to himself, "Sure enough, the people who came were not kind. The good ones will not come."

"Hmm?" Hearing this, Xiang Lingfeng revealed a surprised expression and asked, "Three Autumn's injury?" Did something happen to Imperial Uncle? "

"Yes, Imperial Mother. What's wrong with Uncle? Wasn't he fine yesterday?" Xiang Kun and Xiang Xi Ru also wore shocked expressions. They still did not know what had happened at the north gate, and they were extremely shocked to hear that Tu Sanqiu had been injured.

Seeing the questioning gazes of the crowd, Tu Feng lowered her charming eyes and sighed lightly. "Hey, I have to apologize to Third Bro first."

Tu Feng's delicate gaze suddenly turned towards Xiang Yun as she said something that had no beginning or end, causing everyone present to be stunned.

Xiang Yun also put on a shocked expression, hurriedly getting up, "Empress, why are you apologizing to your nephew? Where did you come up with this?"

Upon hearing this, Tu Fengxiu put on a look of guilt and said, "Aiya, I heard that there was a conflict between the Crown Prince and Sanqiu in the northern city gates today. When the servants entered the palace, they informed me that Sanqiu had been severely injured and had lost consciousness, so I'm sure that my younger brother offended the Crown Prince and caused him to be displeased.

Tu Feng's charming tone was incomparably sincere, as if he had truly come to apologize.

However, a cold light flashed within Xiang Yun's eyes when he heard this, thinking, 'What a brilliant method to' retreat for the sake of advancing '. Empress Tu had said that she was here to apologize, but had instead directly brought what had happened at the city gate before the emperor, wanting to sue him.

What made Xiang Yun even more speechless was that Tu Fengjiao had mentioned that Tu Sanqiu was heavily injured and unconscious. Wasn't this a little too much bulls.h.i.+t?

He had only caused Tu Sanqiu to lose a few teeth and swell his face. Otherwise, with Xiang Yun's current strength, when facing a fellow that did not even reach Huang Yun, a single slap would definitely be able to send this fellow's head flying.

The reason Empress Tu was exaggerating was clearly because she was plotting against her and wanted to make the matter bigger so that the emperor could punish her.

Xiang Yun couldn't help but raise his gaze to look into Tu Feng's charming eyes. When he saw Xiang Yun's gaze, the apologetic expression on Tu Feng Jiao's face turned into a playful smile, her eyes actually carrying a sharp look!

Seeing this, Xiang Yun couldn't help but think to himself, I haven't been to Dragon City in these three years, I didn't think the Tu Family members would be so confident, they actually dared to fall on this prince's head!

When Tu Fengjiao's words came out, everyone present was shocked. Their expressions all changed as they looked at each other in dismay.

To think that his uncle's injuries were caused by this prince who had just entered the city, and he had even been bedridden with serious injuries. Wasn't this way too arrogant?

This was especially true for Xiang Kun and Xiang Xi Ru. Tu Sanqiu was their uncle, but they never expected that he would actually teach them a lesson. How could they not be angry!

"Your Highness, I wonder how my uncle offended Your Highness, for Your Highness to be so ruthless!" Xiang Kun, who was sitting next to Xiang Yun, suddenly stood up, a trace of a questioning look clearly in his eyes.

"Kun'er, don't be rude!"

Tu Feng Jiao immediately scolded him. However, looking at her appearance, she did not seem to have any intentions of stopping Xiang Kun.

At this time, Xiang s.h.i.+ru's gaze turned cold as she sneered, "Imperial Brother has no other intentions, but he just wants to ask the reason behind this matter. If it's really Uncle's doing, and if Cousin Xiang Yun has any shortcomings, and Cousin Xiang Yun has come all the way here to suffer grievance, then we should also express our apologies, right?"

The Empress, the Third Prince and the Fourth Princess simultaneously launched an attack. They looked at Xiang Yun, the atmosphere of the banquet instantly becoming incomparably awkward.

When Xiang Chang An saw this, he knew something was wrong and chortled.

"Cough cough, Empress, Third Brother, Fourth Sister, I think this must all be a misunderstanding. Moreover, today is royal father's welcoming day for Cousin Xiang Yun, let's not bring this up again."

"Seventh Brother is right. Why don't we talk about this another day?" Xiang Fei, on the other hand, spoke up for Xiang Yun in a rare moment, helping him out of his predicament.

However, upon hearing this, Xiang Xi Ru smiled and said, "Sixth Sister, Seventh Brother, we can settle our own family matters here. However, Xiang Xi Ru laughed when she heard this," Sixth Sister, Seventh Brother, our family's matters can be resolved by ourselves.

"Besides, royal father hasn't spoken yet, why are you so anxious?"

"This …" Xiang Chang An was instantly astounded, and Xiang'er also knitted her brows.

The two of them turned to look at Xiang Lingfeng, while Xiang Lingfeng looked at Xiang Yun with a calm expression, saying, "Yun'er, I wonder what has happened. Did you and Imperial Uncle have any conflicts?"

Upon hearing Xiang Lingfeng's question, the Empress, Xiang Kun, and Xiang Xi Ru's eyes lit up. Xiang Kun and Xiang Xi Ru's eyes shone with a sinister light as they thought to themselves, Today I'll definitely have royal father severely punish this conceited fellow.

Empress Tu did not forget to add, "Your Highness, feel free to tell me. If there is anything wrong with your brother, I will definitely reprimand him and have him personally apologize to Son San!"

Looking at this family of three, openly acting with a gaze that was' like a wolf or a tiger ', Xiang Yun couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Immediately, Xiang Yun no longer remained silent. He actually stood up and bowed respectfully towards Empress Tu.

Seeing this, Xiang Kun and Xiang s.h.i.+ru looked at each other with a smug look in their eyes. They thought to themselves, This Yun knows that the matter has been exposed and doesn't dare to act carelessly. He's going to apologize to the Empress.

At this moment, Tu Fengjiao unconsciously stood up as well. Her phoenix head slightly tilted upwards as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. She thought to herself, "How can you just mess with my Tu Clan just because you want to? The present is different from the past!"

At this moment, Xiang Yun finally spoke up. However, his words had exceeded everyone's expectations.

Xiang Yun waved his hands, "Empress, cousin, and uncle should indeed have taught him a lesson, but for such a small matter, there's no need to apologize. We're all family, there's no need to be so formal!"
