Therefore, even Emperor Wu, the ruler of the continent, had to be on friendly terms with the tribe.
The winter hunt was when Emperor Wu paid a friendly visit to the chief of the tribe, and more went on behind the scenes than any ordinary person could comprehend.
That was why Emperor Wu would have a large entourage every single time.
At Dingwu Gate.
Emperor Wu brought more than 20 officials with him this time, all of whom were his closest confidants.
And they all came with their own families as well, who had carriage after carriage of luggage. Right now, the square outside Dingwu Gate was packed.
Luckily, the families all had their allotted spots, so it wasn’t very messy.
There was a hubbub of voices as soon as Emperor Wu showed up.
“Your Majesty —”
Emperor Wu’s steward smiled wryly and spoke in a low voice when the emperor was about to give the order to set out.
“His Royal Highness isn’t here yet…”
“What?!”
Emperor Wu’s face immediately darkened.
For this trip, he had not only brought Empress Dugu, but quite a few concubines as well. However, Empress Dugu was the only one sharing a carriage with the emperor.
Hearing the steward’s words, Empress Dugu thought that her chance had arrived, so she slowly said, “His Royal Highness is really arrogant. Your Majesty has to wait for him now.”
Emperor Wu was already unhappy, and Empress Dugu’s deliberate words only aggravated the situation. He was visibly in a bad mood.
The chief steward smiled bitterly inwardly. “Her Majesty is still so selfish. She’s all about making her own son the crown prince instead.” However —
The chief steward was completely on Jun Linyuan’s side, even if the young man had never been particularly nice to him.
“Jun Linyuan is getting bolder and bolder!” Emperor Wu smacked the table.
“Your Majesty, we calculated the best time to set out. If we’re delayed because of His Royal Highness, it won’t be a good sign… What are we going to do?” Empress Dugu feigned a worried tone.
Emperor Wu snorted. “If he doesn’t want to come, then don’t! Tell everyone we’re leaving now!”
Emperor Wu had two stewards with him. The chief steward, Zhao Ruhai, was 100% Jun Linyuan’s supporter.
The other steward was Bai the eunuch, who had served Emperor Wu when the latter had still been the crown prince. After all these years, they had quite a close relationship.
However, Bai was on Empress Dugu’s side, so he didn’t like Jun Linyuan.
The chief steward and Bai left the imperial carriage, and Bai looked pleased.
He glanced at the chief steward and smirked. “How can His Royal Highness make His Majesty wait? That’s too arrogant.”
The chief steward almost rolled his eyes. “I’m sure His Royal Highness has his own reasons.”
Bai asked, “Does he? I wonder who is important enough to make His Majesty wait.”
His voice might be low, but Emperor Wu heard everything.
“That’s unacceptable!”
Emperor Wu was very serious about his dignity, and he wouldn’t be challenged. Now that Bai had said that, his impression of Jun Linyuan immediately worsened.
What was Jun Linyuan doing now?
Halfway to the square, the crown prince couldn’t stand it anymore.
He had been thinking about Feng Wu the entire time.
