At the time of the palm lamp, at the door of the Governor's Mansion, the capital of the Blue Star Domain, which was quiet for a day, it was a moment of bustling traffic. The carriage pulled by the six-legged beast and the sedan chair carried by manpower seem to be ancient means of transportation, but they show the might of the imperial magnates.

The powerful people with long sleeves and fluttering sleeves and a bit of fairy wind bones wore expensive clothes that could make ordinary civilians eat for several years, complimenting each other. The lady who is inlaid with gold and jade, even the fan in her hand has to compete for beauty.

Today is the day when Prince Ling Xiao feasts officials at all levels in the Azure Star Domain, even the wives and concubines of the family can participate. Not to mention the dignity of His Royal Highness, even if he can see the demeanor of the prince of the empire in person, it is enough for these men and women to blow for several years, so even if it is still early, there is already a queue of cars at the door of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Walking into the palace, the soldiers of the Guards in black armor did not squint, whether it was the gray-haired old official passing in front of them, or the young lady walking with a burst of incense, these iron-blooded soldiers who looked like wooden stakes only clutched their swords at their waists and watched them pass by with expressionless faces.

is so powerful that those women who have never seen any big scenes seem to be more careful when walking, for fear of causing trouble for the family because of their words and deeds.

"Xiaguan meets Shangguan. Lord Shangguan is well. ”

Suddenly, among the officials waiting in front of the main hall, some of the officials who were higher in front heard respectful greetings. Immediately, it was like a contagion, but all the officials who could already see the main hall bowed their heads and bowed.

"Your Excellency is well. This official has been ordered by His Highness to guide you in the way. Shangguan Qiuyue, who was dressed in gorgeous court clothes, walked out of the main hall accompanied by several guards soldiers, and casually waved his hand to signal everyone to be exempt from courtesy, and then said indifferently: "Your Highness said that the moon is full today, and it is really boring to be stuffy in the hall, plus it is a banquet, so there is no need to be too formal." Therefore, the venue of the banquet was changed to the garden. The servants in the palace are ready to stop, and please go to your lordship and your own officials. ”

"Your Ministers obeyed. Everyone immediately saluted again, and then according to the size of their official positions, they followed Yue'er in several rows and moved in the direction of the garden.

Just as Yue'er said, a large open space has already been cleared in the garden, with the most luxurious purple and gold table in the center as the center, spreading out to both sides in a semicircle, and from a distance, you can see countless guards shuttling through it, putting pre-dinner refreshments, wine pots, wine and so on one by one. The grand banquet composed of thousands of tables is not seen by ordinary people just by its bearing.

Now that everyone has been guided here, Shangguan Qiuyue bowed slightly as a courtesy, and then left immediately, and then there will naturally be guards to introduce the officials and family members who arrived later into this area.

After about an hour, thousands of tables were filled, except for the Lord's seat, which was sitting north and facing south, was still empty. The officials are not in a hurry, it is normal for His Highness on the throne to be late, if he sits there and waits first, I am afraid that the officials will have to worry about whether they will lose their heads if they are late. At this moment, the acquaintances are talking in a low voice, and the ladies and ladies are competing with each other for jewelry and clothing, which can be regarded as self-satisfaction.

"Your Highness is coming, and hundreds of officials kneel to greet you!"

Suddenly, a loud shout was heard, which suppressed the humming of the room, and the officials immediately stopped whispering to each other, and both men and women knelt on the ground at the same time, showing their deference.

"The ministers bowed to His Highness. Your Highness is mighty. ”

In the sound of a group of footsteps, everyone bowed respectfully in unison, and the voice was so neat that it seemed to be said by one person.

"Alright, alright, it's all free. Xiao Yichen's magnetic voice sounded, and the officials close to the main seat could even see the purple-gold dragon suit hem dangling in front of them.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness. After saluting in unison again, everyone got up and sat back down at their tables. And at this moment, those ladies and ladies who saw Xiang Xiao Yichen for the first time would not miss the opportunity, and with the convenience of the back of the table, they all stretched their pink necks, wanting to take a closer look at this man who is known as the first beautiful man under the stars.

Completely ignoring these eyes from all directions, Xiao Yichen sat down peacefully, glanced at the audience and said with a smile: "This king has been very hospitable to you these days, and originally wanted to stay longer, but my father sent a holy message from the imperial capital, and this king had to return to Beijing." So, today is a thank you for your hospitality. ”

"Your Highness is serious, and it is an honor for us to be able to make Your Highness feel a little satisfied. Feng Zhen, the number one sycophant, naturally won't miss this good opportunity, and he is already busy currying favor at the moment.

"Hahaha, Lord Feng just can speak, and this king is comfortable listening to it in his heart. Come, serve wine, and the king will have a drink with all the adults. Xiao Yichen's hearty laughter made the mood of the civil and military officials in the audience more relaxed.

Yu Xiaoxiang obediently picked up the purple gold wine jug and poured wine into Xiao Yichen's forehead, but those beautiful eyes didn't turn to anyone, as if she didn't want to see these disgusting faces at all.

After three glasses of wine, one after another delicacies were served, and the atmosphere in the banquet was more easy-going because Xiao Yichen joked a few words from time to time.

Suddenly, there was a faint muffled sound in the distance, and you could even see some red light flashing at the end of the garden, which was hidden by grass and trees. For a while, everyone who didn't know what was going on turned their heads one after another, and their faces were a little worried.

Beichen ran from the corner of the garden without a word, ran straight to Xiao Yichen's side, covered his mouth with his hand and whispered a few words to his ear.

Nodding slightly, waving his hand, Xiao Yichen motioned for Beichen to stand aside without a word, and then said with a smile: "Don't panic, everyone, there are a few little mice who like to drill into the ground in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and this king has already cleaned it up." ”

Without waiting for others to speak, Liu Xianneng got up instantly, knelt on the ground and said with a panicked face: "It is really the responsibility of the last general to make His Highness frightened. At last, he went to inspect the perimeter, and if he found a thief, he would capture him. His Royal Highness hopes that the last general will have a chance to atone for his sins. ”

"Don't worry about Liu Dutong, this king said, it's just a few little mice, and you don't need Liu Dutong's big knife. Xiao Yichen smiled and waved his hand, as if he didn't care much.

"But ......"

Liu Xianneng wanted to say something, but Xiao Yichen's gaze suddenly turned cold, and his starry eyes fell on him like lightning, and he said indifferently: "This king's words, aren't they clear enough?

"The last general will not dare!" Liu Xianneng was covered with cold sweat at the moment, and hurriedly kowtowed again, and then he knelt down cautiously, but his eyes did not dare to look at the man on the main seat.

This one, coupled with Xiao Yichen's sudden cold voice, suddenly made the entire garden silent.
