Princess Pingyang fell into deep thought, Murong Jiu did not bother, thinking about whether it was time to retire, but as soon as her mind turned, Princess Pingyang opened her mouth first. 〔s。

"Let's go, it's almost time, and the banquet is about to begin." Princess Pingyang smiled, with more relief and gratitude between her eyebrows.

Seeing this, Murong Jiu smiled and nodded, and followed Princess Pingyang out of the rockery and towards the banquet center.

The relief between Princess Pingyang's eyebrows made Murong Jiu's heart feel relieved and happy for her.

Murong Jiu came to the Taihe Hall with Princess Pingyang, and saw that the table was full of people, and the people attending the banquet had basically arrived, even King Rui and several other princes and princesses had also taken their seats. They are all in their respective seats, drinking tea or chatting in a low voice with the seat next to them.

After entering the Taihe Palace, there were palace maids to greet her, and after retiring to Princess Pingyang, Murong Jiu followed the palace maids to the seat of General Murong's mansion.

The position is in the front, and it is in the front row, a very bright and enviable seat, but Murong Jiu can only sigh secretly, and he can't keep a low profile if he wants to.

"Jiu'er, where do you go, so that my mother can find it." Before Murong Jiu reached the seat, Mrs. Murong who saw her hurriedly got up to greet her, with a worried face, and said in a hurried tone, bringing her back to the seat as she spoke.

"The palace is no better than your own backyard, how can you run around." Murong Haoxuan stood up and said sternly, with a hint of worry in his tone.

"Okay, Daddy, Jiu'er is not a three-year-old child, just walking around, don't make such a fuss." Murong Hao, who had not been seen for a day, also put down his military affairs and entered the table, and when he saw his father and mother reprimanding his sister, he couldn't help but stand up and speak for Murong Jiu.

"Daddy, I'm just going to sit by the lake in the Imperial Garden, I'll pay attention next time." Murong Jiujiao smiled, turned her eyes to look at Murong Hao after speaking, and thanked her with her eyes.

"Alright, alright. Sit down, the hour is coming. Murong Haoxuan smiled when he saw his daughter's delicate and cute appearance.

Murong Jiu sat down, drinking tea and looking around.

The upper seat in front of the hall is empty, today's protagonist and the emperor have not yet arrived, the main seat is left in order, the first seat is empty, I don't know who it is left to, and the next person in the seat Murong Jiu still doesn't know, but when he sees that under the order, it is the seventh prince of Qilianguo, Princess Qinya, and Lou Lanxi who are seated, and it is not difficult to guess that the man who looks feminine and charming is Bai Zhexiu, the third prince of Nanzhao who sent Tianyao to Tianyao, and he should be Duan Chengfeng, the right prime minister of Nanzhao. This was followed by the envoys of the various small dependent states.

According to this logic, the first priority should be reserved for Dongfang Yi.

Well, Dongfang Yi has already been crowned king, and his rank seems to be higher than that of the princes of the other two countries who have not been crowned kings, not to mention that Dongyue is faintly ahead of the other three countries, so this arrangement is also reasonable.

However, it hasn't appeared at this time, and this Dongfang Yi is quite arrogant.

Murong Jiu pursed his lips, didn't think about it anymore, and moved his gaze to the right.

The princes of Tianyao sat together in turn, and King Shuo's side should be his princess, who was quite dignified and virtuous. And the royal ladies, in addition to the queen, princesses and concubines all sit behind the prince.

And under the order is their family, Murong Haoxuan and Mrs. Murong are at the same table, originally Murong Hao and Murong Jiu were going to sit behind the two of them according to their seniority, but Murong Hao is also a first-class general, so he has his own place in the front row, plus the Murong family comes and goes on their fourth person, Murong Jiu is very fortunate to sit at the same table with Murong Hao, and accidentally became the highlight of the first row.

And beside Murong Jiu was the head of the Luo family and Luo Yanqing, and Mrs. Luo led a group of juniors to sit behind him. The Luo family's seat was in front of the prime minister, which really surprised Murong Jiu.

When Murong Jiu's inner eyes were able to change and sweep in time, a sharp call from the palace gate came from the eunuch, "The emperor has arrived, the queen mother, the queen mother has arrived"

The eunuch's words fell, except for the princes and princesses of Nanzhao and Qilianguo and the princes of Tianyao, who bowed halfway, and the ministers all knelt on the ground to salute, as if they had been trained, and shouted: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live, the queen mother, the queen mother, the queen ”

Murong Jiu was really annoyed and sat in the first row at this time. Kneel, she really doesn't have the habit of it; Don't kneel, if it's not good, it's going to affect the whole family.

But the shape and time, she didn't want to think about it, so she had to follow the trend and lean down, but fortunately, at this time, everyone was doing a big salute, Murong Jiu supported the ground with both hands, his knees were bent, but his knees did not touch the ground, and he focused on his hands.

The appearance is somewhat strange, but fortunately, no one notices it, and I can't see her strange appearance.

Emperor Tianyao stepped onto the throne, turned around majestically, swept around the hall, nodded with satisfaction, and said loudly: "The Qing family is flat." ”

"Your Majesty." The temple once again resounded with earth-shattering shouts.

"Haha, today is the birthday of the Queen Mother, the whole world celebrates, don't be formal, just eat, drink and have fun. Come, drink this first cup with me, and wish the Queen Mother happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan. Emperor Tianyao said, his voice majestic with a happy smile.

"Wait for the emperor, there are still people who have not arrived, I am afraid that this first glass of wine will have to wait a little longer." The Queen Mother's slightly old voice sounded, steady and without joy or anger, but it made people's hearts feel cold and timid.

"Oh, who else hasn't arrived" Emperor Tianyao's voice was deep, and with this boost, it suddenly shocked people's hearts.

"Your Majesty, you are the King of Dongyue." The father-in-law beside Emperor Tianyao replied in a low voice.

"Oh, King Ze, what's going on" Emperor Tianyao squinted at Xuanyuan Ze, who was in charge of this reception.

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Ze hurriedly got up, not waiting for him to reply, and there was a report outside the hall, "The King of Dongyue Xiaoyao has arrived."

When the sound fell, everyone involuntarily looked outside the hall

Still dressed in white, he walked slowly towards the hall. That posture and face were like a god, and Dongfang Yi's appearance made a low gasping sound sound in the hall.

His light directly covered up the words and chess that came with him, and another tall, mighty and fierce man about thirty years old, and this person was the general of Dongyue's protector - Wen Renyan.

"I've seen Emperor Tianyao, this king is late for a congratulatory gift, so it's no wonder." Dongfang Yi arched his hand, his face was expressionless, and he said coldly.

"Oh, what kind of congratulatory gift is it that bothers the King of Joy so much." Emperor Tianyao had a smile on his face, but the majesty on his face could not be ignored.

"This is the night pearl specially prepared by the prince, I hope the queen mother will smile." Wen Renyan stepped forward to reply, and at this time, everyone realized that he was holding a square brocade box in his hand.

Although the night pearl is precious and rare, it will not be taken out alone to talk about things, and it is too late, which is too unusual.

Some people in the hall couldn't help but murmur and talk a lot.

Dongfang Yi's face remained unchanged, and he always maintained a cool face, as if he had never heard the faint sound of discussion.

Yan Ziqi smiled like a spring breeze on his face, and he didn't put that discussion in his ears.

Hearing the sound of people's fire, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and his face was not visible, and he reached out to open the brocade box

Wow, the people sitting in front of them were shocked when they saw the night pearl in the Wenren Yanjin box, but the nobles in front of them, which one is not used to seeing the world, although they are shocked, they are all very good.

In the brocade box was a night pearl the size of a man's palm, like taking off the bright moon in the sky and placing it in a brocade box, it was so surprising and trembling, no one wanted to take it for themselves.

The Empress Dowager Tianyao, who will receive such a gift, is a little uncontrollable at this time, smiling with a smile on her face, trying her best to hide it in her eyes, but still overflowing with joy, all let people know that she likes this gift very much.
