In the palace, only ministers are allowed to drive the carriage to the square behind the east gate to show respect for the emperor, but many princes, nobles and ministers who have come to the palace for a banquet can only walk to the Guanghua Hall in the square to participate in the palace banquet.

Even the prince and others are no exception, yes, on the day of the palace banquet, King Rong came to the palace with Jing Xi Cheng carriage, and as for Ah Heng and Ah Yan, he stayed in the palace.

About in the afternoon, Jing Xi set off from the palace, although the palace is close to the palace, but it will take more than half an hour to calculate the way down, besides, whenever the palace banquet is held, the ministers will consciously arrive in advance, and then wait for the emperor's holy drive.

Along the way, Jing Xi once again saw the prosperity of the capital, the last time he returned to Beijing, he was tired all the way, and he had not seen the capital carefully.

Today's capital is extremely lively, the whole country celebrates, that is, the people and traders who can be seen everywhere on the street are with smiling faces, the emperor is Shengming, the country is governed in a good way, Xia Guo is from the financial resources, military strength, in the four countries to take the lead, the people live a good life, naturally thank the emperor Shengming.

Of course, knowing that today is a state banquet, many ministers have to go to the palace for the banquet, and in some important streets, the people do not dare to be presumptuous, just stand on both sides, watching the carriages in the ministers' palaces slowly pass in front of them.

When many of the officials who were loved and admired by the people passed by, the people would spontaneously admire and admire one after another.

This includes the invincible King Rong, as well as some world-famous scholars and Confucians, as well as the capital Dali Temple.

Some of these scholars and Confucians were imperial teachers, some were responsible for teaching the prince's knowledge, and some were responsible for the master's education in the capital.

Needless to say, the first two are the capital of the school, which is the holy place that Xia Guoxin students yearn for.

The students of the Xia Kingdom are proud to enter the capital to study, and there are people from various counties. After years of hard study, after they were selected in the examination, some of the people with excellent grades and top rankings could go to the capital to study in depth to prepare for the top prize in the examination.

Of course, when these people arrive in the capital, they also need to go through some tests, and only those who successfully pass the test can get a place to enter the capital government.

Yes, the people who can study in the school are all the best in the Xia Kingdom.

Not to mention this bachelor who is a master in the school.

After more than half an hour, Jingxi and the others finally arrived at the palace at dusk.

Gu Yang drove outside the carriage and handed the palace token to the guard guarding the palace gate, of course, this guard naturally recognized the carriage of the palace, but it was just a routine.

After the guard saluted and let him go, the carriage slowly drove into the palace and headed for the Guanghua Palace.

This Guanghua Hall is the place where the royal palace banquet is held, as early as when the emperor ordered to hold a banquet, everyone in the Guanghua Palace prepared for the palace banquet. What's more, this is a state banquet, and no one dares to slack off.

Yes, February 28 is the "birthday" of the Xia Kingdom. Every year on this day, the emperor will hold a palace banquet in the Guanghua Hall to celebrate the peace of the country and the people, the health of the four seas, and the prosperity of the Xia country.

Outside the Guanghua Palace, many officials arrived one after another, the ministers were chatting casually, and many ladies among the ladies were greeting each other.

Guanghua Hall seems to be splendid and magnificent under the illumination of the remnant sun. Jing Xi has been held by her father since she got off the carriage, there is no way, she is only six years old now, and she doesn't have to worry about anything, besides, her father has been very nervous about her since she experienced the last disappearance.

In his father's arms, Jing Xi couldn't help but look around, Gu Yang followed behind his father, and after his father took his seat, Jing Xi also sat next to his father.

The palace maids were dressed uniformly and skillfully making tea, and Jing Xi noticed that a porcelain cup in front of him was delicately drawn with carp playing in the water.

As time passed, the ministers had already taken their seats, and their families had also taken their seats one by one according to the rules and etiquette.

In the center of the main hall, there are some luthiers, playing the music like a melody on the spot.

It is a prosperous scene of prosperity and peace, Jing Xi admires the beautiful songs of the beauties, while eating snacks, it is estimated that she is the only one who is so leisurely, right?

It's not that Jing Xi is wanton, it's almost evening, and this stomach is already hungry, and when I see the pastries on the table, don't you have to take them to pad my stomach first?

King Rong saw that his baby girl liked it, and also helped her hold the pastries she liked in the distance, Jing Xi ate something in his mouth, and said inarticulately, "Thank you, father." "For a while, it was very comfortable.

The ladies and ladies were all whispering greetings, and many girls couldn't help but look at the position of the royal family and nobles, and the handsome princes and princes of the county were sitting there.

Jing Xi was also keenly aware of a few glances towards her father, even if it was a little vague, Jing Xi also noticed it, but she probably didn't have much impression of those people.

After all, Jing Xi is only six years old now, and most of the time he lives in the border city with his father, but he lives very little in the palace in the capital, and he rarely goes out of the palace before, so it is normal not to know those people.

Now that the war has subsided, the rest of the days must have been spent in the capital, Jing Xi thought.

Gu Jingxi saw Prime Minister Su Cheng sitting in the position of an important minister, the emperor had not yet come, but it was already lively.

This Su Cheng has some impressions, his relationship with his father is okay, and he is also honest and honest.

After a while, a few whispering voices made Jing Xi divert his attention and look outside the hall.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down ......"

His Royal Highness the Prince is Xiao Yichen, yes, Jing Xi looked outside the hall, only to see Xiao Yichen wearing a dark gold satin prince's clothes, the cuffs are embroidered with gold silk with elegant auspicious cloud patterns, and the placket is a coiled golden dragon on the sleeves.

In the eyes of everyone, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very intelligent at a young age, and sometimes he is more decisive and shrewd than others in the handling of some court affairs, with a majestic look of heaven, indifferent and noble, and not easy to approach.

As if inadvertently, the young man met Jing Xi's gaze, I don't know if it was Jing Xi's illusion, she saw Brother Chen showing a very faint smile to her, and from his clear eyes, it seemed that she saw the starry sky there.

His Highness smiled again.

Xiao Feng, who was standing beside His Highness and was bending down to report the situation to His Highness, noticed His Highness's smile, although it was extremely shallow, but he also caught it.

After a while, His Royal Highness heard the voice of the chamberlain, "The emperor has arrived!" ”

Everyone in the glorious hall instantly fell silent, and they stood up and saluted to greet the holy car.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The sound is uniform.

"Excuse me!" The emperor spoke, let everyone calm down, and then slowly walked to the dragon chair in the hall.

"Emperor Xie!" Jing Xi saluted the emperor with his father, and the banquet officially began after the emperor entered the banquet.

The beautiful and graceful dancers who were masked with red veils stood outside the main hall. Eight dancing girls, seven of them wore red soft gauze dresses, and the leader of the dancers was different from others, wearing a purple liuxian dress.

Under the moon, she seemed to be dressed in the moonlight, dancing lightly, and her body began to dance softly.

The white ankles were tied with silver bells, and the jade feet touched the ground, like a fairy, slowly came from outside the hall to the hall, and returned to the phoenix dance with the sound of the piano music.

Coquettish but not frivolous, the dancing posture makes people really feel the prosperity of the world, when she takes the veil, many men can't take their eyes off it at all, it is a national face with natural fragrance, and the beauty is suffocating.

After the dance, the dancers slowly withdrew from the main hall, and at this time, the atmosphere of the banquet also became stronger. Emperor Xiao Yintian held the wine bottle in his hand, and as usual, he said, "I respect all Aiqing, may my Xia Kingdom be prosperous and the country will be forever!" ”

"May the Xia country be prosperous and the country will be forever!"

Everyone below also echoed, with a loud voice and a rainbow!

The palace maids served the food according to the road, poured wine and served everyone from time to time, and the palace lights were bright all night.

On the throne of the gold-lacquered carved dragon in the main hall, there is a king who looks down on the world. Below, singing and dancing are leveling, and the sleeves are fluttering; The bell rings and the chime is struck, and the music is melodious. The sandalwood lit on the pedestal was smoky. Deep in the palace, bustling and bustling.

After the atmosphere gradually became hot, Jing Xi was unmoved, just eating the food on the table in front of her quite intently, even Xiao Yichen's gaze that seemed to look at her inadvertently from time to time was ignored.

Seeing that the little girl was focused on the food in front of him, the young man didn't even look at him, lowered his eyes, pondered for a while, and motioned to Xiao Feng to send a plate of sugar steamed cheese to the little girl.

"County Lord, this is the sugar steamed cheese that His Highness asked his subordinates to send you, please taste it." After a while, Xiao Feng delivered the food to the county lord's table in a low-key manner.

Hearing this, Jing Xi raised his head and looked at the young man, seeing that he was looking forward to her like a child wanting to eat candy, Jing Xi smiled sweetly back, and tasted it under his eyes.

This sugar steamed cheese is really delicious, Jing Xi was captured by the food again, and after a few glances at the teenager, he ate the food again.

Seeing this, the young man had to smile helplessly, and then learned from the little girl and ate the food, "It's not bad." "Heart-to-heart.

Finally, after a while, Jing Xi filled his stomach, and finally stopped blindly eating, but began to pay attention to the people around him.

Jing Xi first looked at the current emperor of Xia Kingdom vaguely, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, sitting firmly on the dragon chair, smiling and watching the singing and dancing below, probably not confused age, imposing, powerful but not angry, and looking at the world.

After only a few glances, Jing Xi withdrew his gaze and looked at the princes opposite.

The current emperor has four sons and two daughters.

The eldest son, that is, the crown prince Xiao Yichen, will not say much, the second prince Xiao Yihe, the son of Bai Guifei, is only three months younger than the prince, but he looks at the gentle breath, which is different from Bai Guifei's hidden desire for power, Xu is still young and has not experienced the dispute of winning the heir, it is rare to see him worship the prince from time to time.

Yes, after just a few glances, Jing Xi knew that the concubine was not simple, and she was dignified and noble in the eyes of outsiders, but Jing Xi saw the indifference and desire for power in the depths of her eyes.

These three princes, Xiao Yize, are the younger brother of the prince, who has passed away from the queen, and heard that he was cultivating in the prince's East Palace, but he did not attend.

You can also not attend this important banquet, firstly, it is the emperor's favor, and secondly, it is not allowed by your physical condition.

However, Jing Xi believes that the Jade Lotus Pill given to Brother Chen last time should be for the third prince, if Jing Xi guessed correctly, the third prince's health should be better now.

As for the fourth prince, it was from Concubine De, who is only five years old now, wearing a blue prince's robe, with a little fleshy face, sitting upright in his position, Jing Xi couldn't help but smile when he looked at it.
