Dachen Hall is the largest banquet hall in the palace, which can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info surrounded by ancient trees, red walls and yellow tiles, resplendent gold.

The hall is supported by a number of giant red pillars, each of which is carved with a whirling and coiled lifelike golden dragon, which is particularly spectacular.

When Yu Manman and Xuanyuan Haoling arrived, the hour was approaching, and the banquet was already full of hundreds of officials and their families.

The men gathered together to discuss political affairs, while the ladies and ladies of the family talked and laughed with their friends.

Seeing Xuanyuan Haoling and Yu Manman walking in side by side, the hall that was originally full of people, the voice suddenly suppressed like a mosquito.

When everyone looked at the cold and fairy-like lush vines, a bright light flashed in their eyes, the men were amazed, and the women were jealous.

Seeing that standing with Xuanyuan Haoling, the two were like a match made in heaven, and they were curious about Yu Manman's identity. are secretly speculating about the relationship between the two in their hearts.

Xu Cheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, looked at Yu Manman's face, his eyes were shocked, and he muttered:

"Little Sister ......"

Yu Xinxun then entered the main hall, and saw that everyone's eyes fell on Yu Manman in front, with different eyes, and appreciation and jealousy were the most conspicuous.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but be secretly proud. In the puzzled eyes of everyone, he walked to Yu Manman's side. Make a loving look and say softly:

"Man'er, come and sit here with your father."

"Yes, Daddy," Yu Manman replied obediently.

Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized. It turned out that this noble and glamorous woman was actually the eldest daughter of the Taishou Mansion.

Seeing that every move shows the demeanor of a concubine, how can there be the rumored behavior that is vulgar, and it is difficult to get into the hall of elegance?

It seems that the rumors are not true, and at this time, I saw Yu Manman follow Yu Xinxun and walk to the low table on the side and sit down.

All of a sudden, the young talents here, or those who have sons at home, have considered the plan to marry the Taishou Mansion.

Xuanyuan Haoling looked at the eyes of those people looking at Yu Manman, and his heart was secretly displeased, his eyes were like cold blades, and he glared at everyone coldly.

Seeing this, those who originally wanted to get married felt a chill in their hearts, and they hurriedly restrained their thoughts.

Wouldn't it be fatal to fight for a woman with His Royal Highness the Prince! The others quickly bowed their heads, as if they didn't see it.

Xuanyuan Haoling saw that no one dared to fight Yu Manman's idea anymore, so he walked to his place and sat down satisfied.

"Your Majesty, the queen has arrived, the concubine has arrived, the lady has arrived, the eldest princess, the little princess has arrived!"

With the chant of the eunuch, Xuanyuan Chen, the queen's concubine, and the princess and others all entered the main hall, and everyone in the hall hurriedly stood up and stood respectfully.

Xuanyuan Chen changed into a five-clawed golden dragon robe, and a big red phoenix robe, and the queen, who was dressed in grace and luxury, walked to the main seat and sat down.

The concubine Xu Han was dressed in an ivory white robe with a floor-to-ceiling robe, covered with a Xidi palace veil inlaid with gold and silver filigree embroidered with colorful cherry blossoms, her hair was pulled into a lotus crown, and the lotus flowers were carefully pasted on her forehead, with cherry lips and phoenix eyes, and her gait was graceful and soft between walking.

The corners of his lips have been with a gentle smile, and he walked to the lower right of the emperor and sat down, with Xuanyuan Chen on the left and Xuanyuan Aoshuang on the right.

Concubine Liu Chengjun was still dressed in a goose yellow palace dress, and walked to the lower left of the queen with a noble posture and sat down, and next to the seat was the little princess Xuanyuan Aoxue in pink.

Seeing that the emperor and others had already sat down, everyone in the hall hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted in unison:

"The ministers see the emperor, see the queen's mother"

"See the concubine Niangniang, the concubine Niangniang"

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Her Royal Highness the Princess"

"All the Qing families are flat," Xuanyuan Chen said majestically.

"Emperor Xie"

After everyone got up, Xuanyuan Chen glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice:

"Today is the queen's birthday, I set up a banquet in the palace to celebrate the queen's birthday, all Aiqing don't have to be too restrained"

"Yes, the ministers congratulate the queen on her eternal beauty, longevity and Tianqi"

Hearing this, the queen smiled and said warmly:

"Thank you all here, sit down, don't be polite"

"Queen Xie" everyone saluted the queen, and then sat on their seats.

Seeing that Xuanyuan Haodi and Xuanyuan Haoyi were not there, Xuanyuan Chen couldn't help frowning and said:

"Why don't you see the eldest and third?"

Hearing this, Xu Guifei looked at Xuanyuan Chen and said softly:

"Back to the emperor, Yi'er has been traveling outside, and I learned that the queen's sister is on her way back today."

"The third child is not young anymore, and he has to find something to do after the New Year, so as not to travel around all year round and disappear"

"What the emperor said is" Xu Guifei replied with a light smile, and seeing this, Xuanyuan Chen's brows also relaxed a little.

Seeing that the emperor's expression did not seem to be low just now, Concubine Shu continued:

"Your Majesty, Di'er went to Fengli Country some time ago, and she hasn't returned yet"

"Why did you go for so long?" Xuanyuan Chen's face was a little displeased.

Xuanyuan Haodi knew about going to Fengli, because after the emperor of Fengli conquered the small countries around him, he pointed the finger at the small tribes on the border of Beichen.

In order to prevent Huangfu Jiayun from taking advantage of the chaos to enter Beichen, Xuanyuan Haodi volunteered to lead troops to suppress it.

It's just that it's been almost a month now, and he hasn't come back yet, and Xuanyuan Chen, as the emperor, will inevitably have some suspicions in his heart.

Concubine Liu Shufei has also served by the emperor's side for more than 20 years, although the king's heart is unpredictable, but she can also see some eyebrows.

At this time, seeing Xuanyuan Chen's cold face, he knew that he had suspicions about Di'er in his heart, and hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, maybe there is a constant war on the border, and Di'er can't leave for a while"

"Even so, but today is the queen's birthday, how can you ignore your mother as a prince?" Xuanyuan Chen said angrily, and the queen's face was also a little unsightly.

"The emperor is angry, how could Di'er forget the birthday of the queen's sister, he has already prepared a birthday gift to give to the queen's sister"

Seeing that the emperor's face improved slightly, Concubine Liu Shu hurriedly signaled to the palace maid Mei Yan behind her:

"Hurry up and present the birthday gift prepared by the eldest prince to the queen's mother"

"Yes, sissy"

Mei Yan hurriedly ran out of the hall, and in less than a moment walked in with a tray covered with brocade cloth.

Seeing this, Concubine Liu Shufei got up and walked to Mei Yan's side, and said respectfully to the emperor and queen who was sitting on the throne:

"Your Majesty, this is the birthday gift prepared by His Royal Highness Di'er for the queen's sister"

Xuanyuan Chen saw that it was covered with a brocade cloth, and there was a hint of interest between his eyebrows, and he asked:

"What is this?"

"Back to the emperor, this is a treasure that Di'er found at the border, and I hope the queen's sister likes it"

With that, Concubine Liu lifted the covered brocade cloth, revealing two objects that exuded a slight glow.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a fist-sized night pearl, the night pearl is already rare, and the fist-sized one is even rarer.

Seeing that the eldest prince made such a big move, everyone present couldn't help but sigh.

Concubine Liu Shufei heard everyone's exclamation, and was secretly proud in her heart, looked at the queen and said with a smile:

"Sister Queen, are you still satisfied with Di'er's gift?"

"Well, the eldest prince has a heart," the queen said lightly, and there was no trace of emotion on her face.

Concubine Liu Shu saw that the queen looked indifferent, and she couldn't see whether she liked or disliked this birthday gift, and she couldn't help but have a resentment in her heart.

Xuanyuan Chen saw that the atmosphere suddenly condensed a little, so he said in a deep voice:

"Someone come, take the gift of the eldest prince for the queen"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

When the palace maid beside the queen heard this, she hurriedly stepped forward to take the tray from Mei Yan's hand, and then retreated to the queen's side.

Seeing this, Chang Fu, the chief steward on the side, hurriedly preached loudly:

"The Birthday Feast Begins"

As soon as the words fell, a group of palace maids walked in with a gold bottle and jade plate.
