The palace is also majestic, because there are friendly envoys at this night banquet, so it is more grand and grand than in the past.

Mo Ziyu looked at the towering Zhumen and sighed lightly in his heart.

Father and brother and countless brothers sacrificed their lives and forgot to die, and fought bloody battles just to protect the grandeur of this empire, and why not be the pawns of the power in this Zhu Sect?

Wanbang Chaohe, this prosperous era of Northern Xia, is it built by the sacrifice of people who are close to the end of the year but cannot reunite with their families for many years?

In order to protect the prosperity of this prosperous world, for the people to live and work in peace and contentment, they have no regrets. But if one day they fall victim to power, then what is the point of their persistence?

Although Mo Ziyu is in the palace, a lot of news has come to his ears intermittently, and near the end of the year, the battle between King Qi and King Qin has become more and more intense, and the taste is getting stronger and stronger.

Mo Ziyu knew in his heart that this was inevitable, and the more fierce and irreconcilable their rivalry became, the greater the chance of revenge, but it was inevitable that he would start to worry about his father and brother.

The relationship between her father and brother and King Qin made it inevitable that they would be affected by this incident, as for how King Qi would look at it, she had no bottom in her heart, and she didn't know whether the matter would implicate her father and brother in the end.

No one knows better than her that her father and brother are bloodied on the battlefield, not for the sake of meritorious service, but just for the sake of the Mo family's style and the peace of the world. But once you are caught up in this whirlpool, you can't be alone.

She began to examine the relationship between herself and King Qin, if she could clearly realize that this is not the case today, she would definitely not marry into the royal family.

"What are you thinking?" Liu Xu squeezed Mo Ziyu's palm, "What are you in a daze?"

"Nothing. Mo Ziyu came back to his senses, "The first time Huizi participated in this kind of banquet, he was a little nervous in his heart. ”

"What are you afraid of, there is this king. Liu Xu said, "You should remember that as long as this king is by your side, you don't have to be afraid." ”

"The concubine is very fond of getting into trouble, and if the prince says this again, it will give me confidence, and it will not be good if the concubine body breaks into any trouble again. Mo Ziyu pursed her lips and smiled, "If the prince is not afraid of taking care of the aftermath of the concubine, the concubine doesn't matter, just let go of her courage and do whatever she wants." ”

"Cheng, this king should answer your words, no matter what trouble you cause, this king will carry it for you!"

"Then won't the concubine be able to be domineering in the future?"

The two said as they walked, and a person who entered the palace greeted the two of them, and seeing that the two of them were intimate, they couldn't help but glance at Mo Ziyu more, thinking that this seventh lady was the new favorite of King Qi?

The banquet was in the palatial Liyuan Palace, and the sound of silk and bamboo inside had already sounded, and there were dancing girls dancing gracefully. The ministers and envoys have taken their seats one after another.

And the position of Liu Xu and Mo Ziyu happened to be next to Liu Ling, presumably he was anxious about Fu Yuan's affairs at the moment, so he hadn't seen him at this time.

Because many of the female dependents were frightened in the Lingyin Temple this time, there were not many female dependents who came. Because the emperor and the queen mother had not yet arrived, everyone gathered together to talk in twos and threes.

Lord Liu Yao then arrived, and as soon as she arrived, several female family members who were rescued by her stood up and thanked her.

Liu Yao smiled faintly: "You don't have to be like this, I just did what I had to do." Practicing martial arts since childhood and protecting women and children are all things that should be done, not because of the teachings of the masters over the years. ”

She passed by Mo Ziyu's side and met her eyes, neither of them said anything, and nodded to each other tacitly, which was regarded as a greeting.

After a while, I heard the voice of the eunuch outside: "Your Majesty has arrived!

Everyone stood up and saluted, and said in unison: "Long live Your Majesty!

I saw Emperor Xuan of Northern Xia, who was wearing a dark dragon robe, striding in, he had just passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and his beard was a little gray, but his eyes were still very sharp, full of spirit, and he looked like he was only in his early forties.

Princess Changle followed closely with the Queen Mother, and Changle changed into a woman's dress, elegant and noble, but also heroic. The queen mother wore a purple phoenix robe, graceful and luxurious.

Yun Guifei is on the left, wearing a red robe, beautiful and elegant.

They all showed the bearing of the Northern Xia and the prosperity of this prosperous era, which opened the eyes of the envoys of friendly countries.

"Let's calm down, have a dinner tonight, and have fun together. The emperor's voice was slightly low, but the majesty of this perennial high position made everyone dare not look directly at this emperor who had reigned for more than 20 years and was decisive.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" everyone sat down, the music began, and the singing and dancing leveled down.

The envoys of the friendly countries thus stood up, offered the tributes and treasures they had brought, and read the letters of state presented by their lords, expressing their submission to the Northern Xia.

Emperor Xuan, who had always been moody, also showed a rare smile, and gave these envoys who came to congratulate them with treasures that exceeded the value of their tribute several times the value.

The dancers with soft waists retreated, and a few more dancers presented heroic sword dances, winning a round of applause.

After a few glasses of wine, an envoy said with a smile: "This is just a showcase! The women of Northern Xia are still suitable for weaving cloth at home and taking children, unlike the women of our tribe, who ride horses and fight like men!"

When Princess Changle heard this, she smiled sarcastically: "The men in our country are strong enough, so they can protect their women, and they don't need women to be like men, men plough and weave, men protect the family and defend the country, and women take care of the small family, each performing their own duties." But we don't have no heroines, for example, our county lord Liu Yao, who is a heroine among women, killed a few thieves last night, such a skill and courage, how many men can't compare, isn't it admirable?"

Liu Yao got up and clenched his fists: "The princess is falsely praised!"

Changle stood up: "They think that our women in Northern Xia are delicate, but they can't make others look down on them." The county lord is good at swordsmanship, and I am good at whipping, so why don't we compare them and let them open their eyes too!"

Liu Yao frowned slightly and was about to speak, and Princess Changle said again: "Father, grandmother, what do you think?"

The emperor has always loved this princess, and he naturally obeyed her words, and said with a smile: "I think it's good, it doesn't hurt for you to compare yourself with the county lord." But in the front, keep it all away, don't hurt the guests around you!"

"Yes, Father!" Changle stood up and said aloud, "Someone, go and bring the county lord's sword and the princess's whip." ”

Liu Yao smiled bitterly, this little princess has always wanted to talk to her, but she has not agreed, but she still let her find this opportunity, she got up and hugged her fists and said, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
