In order not to startle the snake, the banquet in the evening was still held as originally planned, and with the solemn sound of music, Song Shuyan sat in the right seat and silently watched the group of envoys who came slowly from the stage, and the expression in his eyes became a little more serious.

Taking the opportunity to enter the scene, she successfully found the fake saintess among a group of people, perhaps because she was afraid that she would be exposed, so the woman kept her veil and carefully hid among the envoys.

If he hadn't known the inside story in advance, Song Shuyan would definitely have been deceived by this woman's disguise.

The fake saintess didn't know that she had been exposed at this time, and pretended to follow the others to perform the unique etiquette of the Baiyi Kingdom to the ruler of the upper position.

Song Shuyan sat beside Shen Zeyuan and glanced at him, then turned his head and said with a smile.

"The envoys have come from afar, they must be tired from the journey all the way, you don't have to be too restrained tonight, just enjoy this banquet prepared for you. ”

The envoy of Baiyi Kingdom also laughed when he heard this, got up and stood on his seat to salute Song Shuyan and Shen Zeyuan, and said respectfully: "We are really grateful for such a big ceremony. ”

Song Shuyan straightened his sleeves and said generously: "It's great to have friends from afar, everyone is friends tonight, so you don't have to say such serious things." ”

Hearing Song Shuyan say this, the envoy nodded thoughtfully and echoed: "What the queen mother said is yes." ”

After some pleasantries, the banquet began, and the envoys and the people in the palace who had come from afar all enjoyed it intently, and did not forget to taste the delicacies in front of them.

In order to show respect, the position of the envoy was deliberately arranged to be closer to the main position, which was just convenient for them to introduce the content of the performance.

However, the envoy who was the leader was obviously not thinking about the performance, and he couldn't help but turn his head to Song Shuyan and say when he looked at it.

"I have heard that the eldest prince is smart and cute, in our Baiyi country, children of the age of the eldest prince are very active, and they will never miss such a lively event as the banquet, I don't know why I didn't see the queen mother bring him here today?"

Song Shuyan was drinking the fragrant tea in his hand, and when he heard the envoy's question, he politely put down the cup in his hand and explained with a smile.

"It's because he's so active, so he didn't let him come, the kid ran outside during the day, and now he's so tired that he's asleep, I'm afraid that he won't want to bring him here from this palace. ”

"I see. The envoy smiled slightly when he heard this, raised his cup and nodded to Song Shuyan, and then drank it directly.

Originally, this topic should have passed like this, but Shen Zecang on the side heard it, and deliberately said more, "The eldest prince occasionally felt a cold while visiting the garden a few days ago, and now he is still unconscious, it is really not suitable to attend, I hope you can forgive me." ”

"This ......" Hearing Shen Zecang's words, the envoy and Song Shuyan were stunned.

Especially the envoy sitting between the two, he didn't know who to look at for a while, the two of them had different words, and as an outsider who didn't know the situation, it seemed that it was not appropriate for him to react.

After a short period of thought, the envoy quickly changed to a sad expression and said with a worried face.

"The prince is still young, and his body is indeed weaker, so he should be taken care of more. It just so happened that we came this time to bring some medicinal materials unique to Baiyi, which have a miraculous effect on the treatment of wind and cold, and I will have someone take them to the eldest prince in a while. ”

As he spoke, the envoy stretched out his hand and prepared to beckon his subordinates behind him to do as he said, and seeing his movements, Song Shuyan hurriedly stopped him.

"Don't bother, the eldest prince is actually just a cold and stomach discomfort, not as serious as others say, don't bother you, the situation of the eldest prince, this palace is very clear, and he has the ability to take care of him,"

While speaking, Song Shuyan also turned his head to look at Shen Zecang, as if he had deliberately said it to him. After all, the other person she just said was Shen Zecang himself.

Hearing Song Shuyan's obviously hostile words, the envoy didn't dare to act rashly anymore, and smiled awkwardly and took back the outstretched hand.

Obviously, there was a singing and dancing performance atmosphere next to it, but it didn't affect their group at all.

Shen Zecang understood Song Shuyan's temper and knew that she was deliberately warning herself, and she didn't deliberately provoke her bottom line again, so she rarely quieted down, sat in her seat and stopped talking.

When the envoy saw his reaction, he roughly understood what was going on, and hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, then rest assured, as long as the eldest prince is healthy, it is a good thing that these medicinal materials are useless." ”

"But I still want to thank you for this kindness, so good, this palace toasts you. ”

The troublemakers had already shut up, and Song Shuyan didn't continue to talk about this matter, and wittily found an excuse to bring the topic over.

Neither let things continue to deteriorate, nor did they embarrass the other party.

After the small turmoil passed, the Baiyi Kingdom and his party once again focused their attention on the banquet performance.

"I have heard that your country is rich in land and resources, and there are many talents, and I found out that this is really the case when I saw it today, I don't know if there is such an honor today, let our people and everyone present have a try?"

Tired of watching the performance of the dancing girl, several envoys of the Baiyi Kingdom couldn't sit still again, and pretended to look at Song Shuyan and Shen Zeyuan casually.

Although it seems to be a proposal, everyone present knows in their hearts that his words are actually essentially a request, and if they don't agree today, they will definitely say that they are timid and afraid of things in the future, and they don't have the demeanor of a big country.

Shen Zeyuan and Song Shuyan knew this truth very well, so they did not hesitate and immediately agreed to each other's proposal.

"Of course you can, I'm also very curious about this competition, so okay, I'll let people make a venue out now, and we can start immediately, but I don't know, what is this competition like?"

As the host, when the guest comes to their territory to make such a request, it is natural to give the choice to the guest, and in front of so many people, he does not believe that the other party will really deliberately make any difficult request.

Sure enough, just as Shen Zeyuan thought, as soon as his words came out, the other party's expression instantly became much more serious, as if he had already begun to think about what to prepare.

But the fact that they dared to make such a request proves that they must have been prepared.

Soon, they came up with their own answers.
