I am The Villain’s Dad
Chapter 60:

The Empress personally took the two princesses to meet the Wa Country envoy at Yunmengtai, which was built early outside the city.

It was not expected that there would be not one, but two envoys, a husband and wife.

The two were seated on equal footing, although the woman was still the first, but in her behavior, the woman also paid much attention to the man, which made the Empress Ming Yue a little curious. Yet, as the Empress, no matter the situation, keeping a poker face is basic.

The Empress conversed with the Wa Country envoy formally as usual, hoping to take this opportunity to understand the thoughts of Wa Country and of any trading intentions between the two countries.

However, the Wa Country envoy seemed a little absentminded throughout. Although she mentioned the subject several times, the envoy would merely tune off after a while.

“The envoy is not in a good mood today, it seems.”

Still, the Empress also had a temper. She had shown full sincerity, but the other party was indifferent, which really annoyed her.

“Your Majesty, it is because I am worried about my son and granddaughter, that’s why I have been out of sorts…”

When Mingyue heard this, she stood up and walked to the center of the hall, came close to the Wa Country envoy, nd inquired, “Oh? What’s wrong with the envoys’ son and granddaughter?”

Mingyue was polite, but in her heart she disliked the envoy and didn’t know how to distinguish occasions. At this time, trading was the most important thing. Why the sudden mention of family affairs? The family of the envoy was thousands of miles away. He didn’t accompany them well when he was at home. Why the need to display her worries about them here? How illogical is that? Clearly, they were not satisfied with the conditions proposed, and they were pretending to be reserved here, so that they could bargain more.

“To be honest, when my son was young, he accidentally saved a girl who was in trouble. In the process of taking care of the girl, he fell in love with the girl, and then ignored any opposition of the two of them getting together and followed the girl. After leaving home, he had two daughters with that girl.”

“Oh? Your son is still very lucky.”

Dale Country respected women, but most of the children born were men. The girls had to earn money to support their families and have babies. They were really too busy.

Like this, very few families have given birth to two daughters.

“Just, the girl was too cruel, and she got tired of my son after two years, and took away a daughter and left another for my son to raise. As a result, my son was separated from his own daughter, and he was sad every day.”

As that envoy said this, he couldn’t help but raise his head to look up.

Linglong and Furong at the top were both stunned.

For Lingling, from the first moment she saw this envoy, she felt that the other party was very kind, like a very close elder, especially in her heart, she felt that this couple had a familiar feeling. The other party seemed to have a great deal of kindness towards her. Every time they saw her taking a peep at them, they always smiled back.

However, Furong felt that the other party was familiar and disgusting from the beginning, and the look in her eyes was always a little uncomfortable. She was a princess of a country, and the other party were just small envoys.

Even if Mother Empress wanted to make a deal with them, they shouldn’t have the courage to be so rude! In terms of national power, Wa Country was not as strong as Dale Country. It was really hard to understand where on earth the other side got the strength to look at her like that.

And since the meeting, Mother Empress had brought up the matter of trade several times, and also asked the Wa Country envoy what he thought. Nonetheless, the other party not only pretended not to understand, but also kept talking about him, telling a story about her son. Who cared what a little envoy’s son was like? What did his life have to do with the relationship between the two countries? Besides, they could talk about it, but why were they looking at her? Could it be that she accidentally stained her dress when she was eating the hibiscus cake.

While the girls were immersed in their own thoughts, Empress Mingyue thought of a terrifying possibility. Their story of the man who followed the girl to leave home sounded so familiar to her.

“If it’s just that, we don’t hate anything. Every family has its own problems. The girl’s family is in a complicated situation, and there are some things that she can’t help herself with. We are not that insensitive people.

However, it is too much. This woman had taken my son for so many years, aggravated my son for so many years, and in the end, actually still abandoned my son. Just because of a small mistake, my son was thrown out of the house, causing my son to live in the streets, to face the world and all its hardships alone.”

After saying that, the envoy no longer concealed the hatred in his eyes, and just looked straight at the Empress Mingyue as he blurted, “I ask the Empress, how should such an ungrateful person be handled in accordance with the laws of the Dale Country?”

Mingyue was scared in her heart, wondering where this person came from, and who was she, and why she wanted to stand up for Yu Yang?

Yes, she had already guessed at this point that this person was talking about her and Yuyang both. Only, she never knew that Yuyang’s parents would actually be envoys of Wa Country? When she met him, Yuyang lived in a dilapidated thatched house in a small fishing village. He also said that his parents were fishing outside and would only come back once in a long time. She never met his parents at all.

Later, after coming to know of her identity, he only returned home once. When he came back, he said that his parents had given him permission to leave and gave him a sum of money for any travelling expenses. She didn’t think about it any further, and when she returned to the palace, she compensated him with a lot of money.

Now, it turns out that Yuyang was more than he seemed?

“Either way, the envoys had come from afar, and many things are just hearsay as well. Why don’t you stay in my Dale Country first? After some days, when you know the situation of my Dale Country, you will naturally know how to deal with such a situation.”

Yuyang’s parents had come to the door, and they were the envoys of the Wa Country. How could she just throw them out? Also, if this was not handled properly, it would affect the friendship between the two countries. Alas, Yuyang’s parents didn’t care at all, and this, she couldn’t ignore.

Moreover, according to what the two said, there were still many things that she did not know of her ex-husband. If Yuyang’s parents were the envoys of the Wa Country, he was not the son of a fisherman who would just let himself be humiliated by others. In this case, if she managed to talk things through with his mother, he would surely not dare to say anything more.

At that time, she could be justified in taking Yuyang back to the palace openly. If he said that he still felt uncomfortable, then she would send Furong back to the Yuyang Palace and order him to personally raise her.

The Yuyang family tried to play with the royal family in their hand, she had long wanted to keep them, only one opportunity was missing.

“Hehe, we shall do as your Majesty suggests.”

The envoy smiled, but did not dwell on anything, just opened his mouth and smiled, as if what he had just said was just a story.

Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, knowing the generality.

As Linglong and Furong listened to them, they both thought, why did they feel that what the envoy said was similar to their experience? Was it possible that this Wa Country came this time not to communicate, but to provoke them? They were not like Ming Yue who knew about the situation back then, much less thinking that these people were their grandparents. They only thought that this person just knew about what happened in their royal family and deliberately brought it out at this time so as to bring shame to their entire Dale Country. Fortunately, the mother Empress responded properly, and this person did not dare to make a move.

Yet, Linglong still kept an eye on them as she decided to ask her father after returning to the Princess’ Palace, what kind of person were her grandmother and grandfather? After hearing this story, she became somewhat curious.

Father did say that this time, he would take her back to the small fishing village to see her grandmother and grandfather. They shouldn’t be the aggressive envoys of the Wa Country, just after she told the story to the mother Empress, she looked at her and her sister. Maybe it was just the same as before, curious about the appearance of both her and her sister.

However, Furong was not as calm as Linglong. She just wanted to eat and drink, watch singing and dancing, and then wait to go back to tell Su Yuyang about the banquet.

She had another mission this time.

Last night, the lord told her a big secret. This time the Wa Country envoy came and brought a mysterious figure with him. That person was the prince of Wa Country, and now the little son of the queen of Wa Country.

The generations of the royal family in the Wa Country were all one man and one woman. The male was responsible for passing the throne, and the female was responsible for governing the country and inheriting the great throne. The wife-to-be of a future Wa Country king had to go through layers of screening before they could be selected. After all, it was related to the ruler of Wa Country in the future.

Unfortunately, the young prince of the country is too naughty and spoiled by the queen. He was clamoring to choose his princess as he liked and have a pair of lovely children. If not, he would rather not marry for the rest of his life, and let his bloodline be extinct. Then, when the prince heard that Wa Country was sending an envoy to visit Dale Country, the little prince sneaked in with the envoy group and arrived in Dale Country.

The queen of Wa Country had long been anxious and sent people around to look for him, but when she learned that he had arrived in Dale Country, she had to ask people to take care of him and not to let him mess around, and to deal with him when she returned.

This matter has already been learned by the spies in the Royal family.

This time, Princess Furong wanted to take this opportunity to grasp the little prince of Wa Country firmly in her hands. As long as she becomes the person the young prince of Wa Country likes, then the matter would be half done, and when the Young Prince fights with her to settle the marriage, then she will have the support of Wa Country. Later, when she gives birth to the future queen of Wa Country, she will control the entire Wa Country.

With this kind of power, would she still worry about not getting the throne of Dale Country? Linglong would not pose any threat to her then.

In addition, she could also accomplish feats that the empresses of the previous dynasties could not accomplish, uniting Wa Country and Dale Country, leaving her name in history forever.

Right now, the little prince of Wa Country was sitting below eating and drinking, and commenting on local singing and dancing with interest. Currently, he was dressed up as a small servant and following the Wa Country envoy. The Wa Country envoy was also very polite to him, and Furong knew at a glance that he was different.

Furong was a little nervous. The little prince looked like Zhou Zheng, but she didn’t like the way he was eating, as if he had neither seen nor heard of manners and decorum.

Sure enough, Wa Country people are vulgar.

Fortunately, the lord said that she would be the empress in the future, even if she got along with the little prince, she wouldn’t have to go to Wa Country in the future and be the princess of Wa Country.

In the end, the little prince of Wa Country was destined to be only a member of her harem.

If she didn’t like it, she could just ignore him after she gives birth to the heir of the Wa Country
