Changqing Hall is the largest palace in Jinyao Palace, and has always been used as a place for various large-scale banquets in the palace.

The banquet is seated according to status, above the main seat is the emperor's seat, next to two seats, respectively, the queen and the queen mother, after the two sides are the palace concubines, under the emperor are the princes and marquis, and the side of the prince's seat is set up as a guest.

Then in turn is the position of the civil and military hundred officials, listed in order of grade, obviously Zhou Ji can no longer follow Shen Qing, Shen Qing and Shen Tuo followed Shen Yushi to sit in the first place among the three princes of officials, close to Lin Taiwei's family.

Shen Qing respectfully saluted to Taiwei Lin and Gao, Gao smiled kindly and pulled her to say a few words, she smiled slightly, and her eyes inadvertently fell on Lin Zhiyan on the side, he was not like the strong dress he had often done before, a dark blue brocade robe, satin blue inlaid with a white jade belt, a little less sharp, a little more elegant. "Brother and sister, how are you doing?"

Shen Qing smiled and said, "Thanks to the care of the eldest brother, everything is fine." ”

Lin Zhiyan smiled warmly, but there was suffering in his heart, between them, there can only be this, just a polite greeting to the extreme, even if it was many nights before, just because he was looking forward to seeing her, saying this short sentence, he tossed and turned and couldn't sleep all night.

The hall suddenly fell silent, only a few suppressed gasping sounds, Shen Qing turned his head to look at the center of the hall, the woman was wearing a pale pink butterfly daffodil skirt, covered with a translucent gown, white brocade lightly bunched around the waist, and the waist was curling.

She combed a delicate lily bun, the blue lily double flower swayed, the small hibiscus flower earrings swayed between the slender neck, the skin was like snow, the apricot eyes were spring, the ruddy lips were bent into a beautiful arc, and the smile was simple and sweet.

The onlookers were all surprised, is this still the unrecognizable Lord of Bailing a few days ago? There was no trace of that day on her flawless face, but the whole person became more delicate and bright.

Bai Ling was obviously very satisfied with the coveted or envious gazes around her, she raised her neck, glanced at Shen Qing with disdain, and walked over like a proud peacock.

Twisting her waist slightly, she walked up to Lian Mo and blinked a pair of innocent eyes, expecting to find a trace of appreciation in the eyes of the person in front of her. "Brother Mo came early today."

Lian Mo glanced at her extremely coldly, obviously not paying attention to her elaborate dress, and replied lightly.

The county lord of Bailing seemed to be accustomed to his indifference, and he didn't care, just smiled a little embarrassed and virtuous, and still walked to his seat elegantly with the most decent etiquette.

"The emperor has arrived!"

With the eunuch shouting, Lian Che wore a Xuan-colored crown robe, wearing a crown and walking into the main hall, the shoulders of the Xuanyi were woven with the sun and the moon, the back was woven with stars, mountains and rivers, and the wide cuffs were embroidered with colorful soft silk and gold thread with lotus flowers, which was extraordinarily luxurious.

Lian Che walked to the main seat and sat down, and the people in the hall knelt down together, burying their heads on the ground: "See the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live!" ”

"All the ministers are flat! Sit! ”

Shen Qing stood up and looked at the person in the main position, his thick eyebrows and thin lips were pursed, exuding the domineering spirit of a king, and his eyes faded gently, replaced by the domineering spirit of the superior, it turned out that power for men could make such a big change.

Sensing Shen Qing's gaze, the man's gaze passed through the crowd, through the light and shadow, and was projected straight like this, and it was unobstructed enthusiasm, without the slightest concealment.

Shen Qing chuckled in his heart, but there was no good way to do it in his heart.

Seeing that Lian Che was only looking in one direction, his close attendant Xue Gonggong reminded: "Your Majesty, an envoy has already arrived, if you let the distinguished guests wait outside the palace, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, you see?" ”

Only then did Lian Che react: "Xuan! ”

The first to come was naturally some small tribal countries around them, which were born dependent on Jin Yao, and the new emperor's accession to the throne was the time when they curry favor with each other.

A group of gold and silver beauties, cattle and sheep jewelry, even Che will receive all the orders.

In addition, in addition to Mengshan and Jin Yao are old enemies, Loulan and Yaozhi are far apart, Baiyue, Wuzi, and Nanchu are all important ministers in the court, only Beimu, and the current prince and the four princesses come together. The ministers were shocked.

Until a man in a dark purple brocade robe walked into the temple.

The man was slender, and he walked with a graceful and luxurious attitude, god-like facial features, and a faint smile on his lips, which instantly hit the hearts of the daughters of the girls in the hall, and they did not dare to look directly into the eyes of the man with red cheeks.

If Lian Che is a man's masculine handsomeness, and Lian Mo is an ethereal beauty that cannot be touched by the posture of heaven and man like a fairy, then the prince of Beimu who comes from the wind in front of him is an elegant and rich beauty that makes people impressed by his demeanor all the time.

Shen Qing's pupils shrank, and the situation, which was already chaotic enough, was now even more uncontrollable. Beimu and Jin Yao were not stable in the past few years, and there were wars from time to time, but in recent years, both sides have been tired, and they have stopped for several years in the posture of entering the water and not violating the river.

Not only the ministers in the palace thought like this, but even Lian Che, who had always been full of ambition, couldn't guess it. "It's hard for Prince Liuyun and the fourth princess to come all the way, and the two of them have worked hard."

Mu Liuyun stood firm in the center, clasped his fists and saluted: "Sent by my father to congratulate Your Majesty on his enthronement, I have a special gift, and I also ask Your Majesty to smile." ”

Lian Che high-fived and laughed: "The monarch of Beimu is polite, it is my Jin Yao's luck to have Prince Liuyun come to my Jin Yao." Come and sit for Prince Liuyun and the four princesses. ”

Mu Liuyun smiled humbly: "Then thank you Your Majesty." ”

He sat down with a smile, his eyes casually swept around, as if he had inadvertently swept the direction where Shen Qing was, but only a barely noticeable stop, then turned his head to greet the envoys of other countries.

The stream was whispering, the drizzle was continuous, the light pipa sounded, and with the music, a woman in a green dress and a green shirt walked slowly.

She held the pipa obliquely, her face as bright as spring water carried shyness, gently lowered her head, the corners of her mouth were slightly pursed upward, accompanied by the light sound of the pipa, as if stepping on the clouds and walking slowly.

Stepping through the crowd and kneeling down on the edge of the clearing, the sound of the pipa became rapid and heavy with a sonorous sound that broke through the air, and the woman in colorful clothes came to the center of the stage at some point.

Her hair is in a high bun, a delicate red peony is inserted between her temples, her skin is as white as snow, her lips are like Dankou, her light figure seems to be integrated with the sound of the pipa, and the enchanting dance posture and the killing pipa sound are in perfect harmony.
