Chapter 251: Welcome
Emperor: “What do you mean?”
What is the Jin Kingdom Emperor doing running over to their Chu Kingdom perfectly fine?
Since when can the ruler of a nation be so willful and run around wherever they please?
He hasn’t left the capital city for decades!
Chu Tiankuo said calmly: “Junior Sister is the princess of the Jin Kingdom Emperor.”
Emperor: “…”
He suspected he had heard wrong!
How is this possible?!
Chu Tiankuo briefly explained the situation between the Jin Kingdom Emperor and Shen Ruoxi.
The Emperor was stunned. Is this daughter-in-law’s background a bit too grand?
Also, she’s so capable. If the Jin Kingdom Emperor recognizes her and takes her back, what will happen to the Chu Kingdom?
Chu Kingdom finally produced a talent, how come before she even married into the family, she became the princess of another country?!
Why does God assign all the good talents to other countries?
Is his Chu Kingdom not worthy of having pillars of talent?
Thinking of a certain possibility, the Emperor looked at Chu Tiankuo: “The Jin Kingdom Emperor isn’t here to break off the engagement, is he?”
Chu Tiankuo: “Don’t worry, this son will not let that happen.”
The Emperor nodded as if comforting himself: “En, absolutely cannot let this kind of thing happen! It’s all your fault! Otherwise, how could there be so much trouble!”
Don’t worry, how can there be so much don’t worry!
That’s her biological father!
That tyrant is going crazy wanting a daughter!
Chu Tiankuo: “…”
What is it his fault for?
Seeing that he still didn’t understand what he was wrong about, the Emperor said angrily: “You should have married Marquis Shen home long ago!”
Once the rice is cooked, what chance would the Jin Kingdom Emperor have?
No wonder the Jin Kingdom Emperor set the Youth Formation Master Competition in Jin Kingdom!
This is taking the opportunity to take his wife and daughter back to his country!
The Emperor was extremely annoyed!
When Xingnong participates in the Youth Formation Master Competition, if she wins, would she be considered Jin Kingdom’s or Chu Kingdom’s?
No, it must be Chu Kingdom’s!
Even her biological father can’t compete with him!

In the afternoon, the entire imperial palace became busy, everywhere you could see palace maids and eunuchs cleaning and sweeping.
The whole imperial palace was spotless!
In the Imperial Garden, even if a single leaf on the flowers, plants, and trees turned yellow, it was pruned.
Every chef in the Imperial Kitchen also started moving nervously.
The Emperor said that tomorrow’s dishes must showcase their best skills, and must be exquisite, grand, and delicious!
All dishes must use the best ingredients!
Absolutely cannot offend anyone, otherwise their heads will not be guaranteed!
And officials above the fourth rank all received an oral decree from the Emperor, that tomorrow there would be no morning court session, they were to enter the palace to attend the imperial banquet, and he specifically reminded them to dress well.
The civil and military officials of the court were puzzled, gathering together and discussing among themselves.
What exactly is the special occasion tomorrow, why is the Emperor suddenly holding an imperial banquet?
Moreover, with such a grand gesture in the palace, this banquet seems to be very grand?
Then someone said that they saw the Crown Prince welcoming someone at the city gate today, and it seemed to be the Crown Princess!
Everyone was shocked: Just who is this Crown Princess, that the Emperor would treat her with such courtesy?
~
Dawn broke.
The main south gate, Chengtian Gate, was wide open!
✿✿✿
The civil and military officials and noblewomen who came to attend the imperial banquet were shocked once again!
Chengtian Gate is only opened when the Emperor goes out.
There is a banquet today, the Emperor definitely will not go out, so, is this grand opening of the palace gate to welcome guests?
Of course, they would not mistakenly believe that this grand opening of Chengtian Gate was to welcome them in.
They are not worthy!
But, even if it’s the Crown Princess, it’s not the Crown Prince’s wedding day, welcoming her with a grand opening of Chengtian Gate, this is too much!
For a future Crown Princess, she’s not worthy!
Everyone lined up to enter the palace with different thoughts, they couldn’t help but discuss with the people around them:
“Do you know what the banquet is for today?”
“I don’t know, but I heard the Crown Princess is entering the palace.”
“Does the Emperor value the Crown Princess so much? He actually opened Chengtian Gate?”
“Who knows, but Marquis Shen has made great contributions, it’s not surprising that the Emperor values her.”
“Impossible! The last time Chengtian Gate was opened was when the Crown Prince returned triumphantly, and the Emperor personally led all the civil and military officials to welcome the army. Can the merit of a Crown Princess be greater than the Crown Prince winning a war?”
Princess Changle and Shen Ruolan also entered the palace today.
The Empress Dowager sent a Momo out, so Princess Changle and Shen Ruolan didn’t have to line up and were directly led into the palace.
However, seeing the wide-open Chengtian Gate, Princess Changle’s heart was filled with complicated emotions.
She already knew that the Crown Princess is Shen Xingqing’s fatherless older sister!
This news was obtained by the Empress Dowager from the Emperor, it absolutely cannot be wrong!
The moment she knew, it almost angered her to death.
However, if the Emperor opens the palace gate and lets that future Crown Princess enter the palace through the main gate, then wouldn’t that be valuing her too much!
Although the Empress Dowager also said, so what if she becomes the Crown Princess, that step is still far away!
Since ancient times, how many Crown Princesses have finally ascended to the position of Empress?
Even if she becomes the Empress, how many of them can become the Empress Dowager!
The palace is as deep as the sea, until the last moment, no one knows who will win!
With the Empress Dowager around, in the future, if she marries the Crown Prince as a secondary consort, her position will still be stable!
However, thinking that the Emperor now opens Chengtian Gate to welcome her into the palace, she felt very uncomfortable!
She, a dignified imperial princess, has never walked through this Chengtian Gate!
Regardless of what everyone thought, after all the civil and military officials entered the palace to see the Emperor, the Emperor received news that the Jin Kingdom Emperor’s carriage was about to arrive at the palace gate.
So, he led all the civil and military officials again, and personally came to the palace gate to welcome him!
Even the Empress Dowager led a group of imperial consorts and noblewomen to the palace gate.
The Emperor’s unusual behavior almost shocked the jaws of all the civil and military officials.
What on earth is going on?
Just as everyone was shocked and puzzled, a low-key carriage arrived at the palace gate.
