Negotiating Peace (3)
The garden outside the banquet hall was extremely lively, and when Jiang Mingwei walked along the stone road across it, the palace envoys who encountered her all stopped to pay their greeting.
Jiang Mingwei smiled and responded to them naturally. While she was dealing with the people outside, she tried to recall the next part of the book.
Xie Xuanji’s life story was a legend in that book. He was originally the son of a small official who wanted to become a seventh-rank official, but suddenly he became a prince, and later, an emperor. As he overcame many obstacles, his intelligence and abilities became known to everyone. Negotiating this peace treaty was a very important part of Xie Xuanji’s strategy to conquer everyone’s hearts.
According to the plot of the original book, the Lantern Festival was the beginning of Xie Xuanji’s fame, and the peace negotiations were the beginning of Xie Xuanji’s rise to power. After the Lantern Festival, the Emperor gave Xie Xuanji the crucial responsibility of finalising the contract’s terms after they had successfully negotiated a truce with the Beirong dynasty.
During the negotiations, Xie Xuanji and the Beirong envoys fought to get the most advantage for their country. Allowing Xie Xuanji’s participation in the negotiations was also a test from the Emperor to check his ability.
The Emperor, ecstatic about his son’s success, gradually assigned him important tasks in the royal court. Xie Xuanji naturally lived up to the expectations of his father and slowly gained control of the court.
He also performed admirable deeds repeatedly during the succeeding conflicts between the Ye Dynasty and Beirong. As a result, he eventually became the new emperor that everyone expected and the people desired.
However, in this life, it didn’t go as smoothly as mentioned in the book. There was no fire outbreak during the Lantern Festival, so Xie Xuanji did not get any chance to showcase his bravery. What’s worse, because of Jiang Mingwei, things became so bad that even the Emperor was angered by Xie Xuanji and his wife.
‘Don’t worry, Jiang Mingwei, don’t worry. Now is the time for peace negotiations to happen. As mentioned in the book, everything will go smoothly and Xie Xuanji will rise again.’ Jiang Mingwei said to herself, trying to comfort herself.
The Emperor continued to place a high value on peace and hosted a feast for Beirong’s representatives in the fourth year of Suihe.
This meant that the plot had its own binding force, and the final result must be the same as the book.
As Jiang Mingwei walked toward the banquet hall while celebrating the upcoming victory in her heart, she happened to bump into Mu Mingtang.
Mu Mingtang took her time exploring the area outside the palace since she didn’t want to arrive at the banquet too early. She started to walk back to the banquet after calculating that the time was almost up when she ran across Jiang Mingwei. Many notable guests were present at this time, so Mu Mingtang and Jiang Mingwei kept a surface-level truce by nodding to one another and remaining silent.
Mu Mingtang’s offensive words were still in Jiang Mingwei’s mind. However, she needed to keep herself calm in the current situation, so she slightly bowed and said, “Second Sister-in-law, after you.”
Mu Mingtang also greeted Jiang Mingwei and entered the hall. Jiang Mingwei followed behind while sneering in her heart, but she didn’t expect that after entering the door, she would meet her.
The woman was none other than Xiao Siyi, Ye Luyan’s main wife in her previous life, who was vicious and domineering.
She was dressed in a Beirong aristocratic dress. Her long hair was braided into a bun with a bright, flamboyant, and heroic look.
Jiang Mingwei was stunned, rooted on the spot as if she was struck by lightning. She had nightmares about this person from her past life. Several times in the middle of the night, Jiang Mingwei had dreams in which she saw this person sneering and ordering someone to throw cold well water on her head.
