Chapter 178: Birthday Banquet
Aoi Xi was thinking about Nan Shuimu and Baili Zhou, and suddenly felt a lot quieter in her ears, she looked up in a daze, and everyone around stopped talking, even the dancing girl who was dancing and singing in the center just now slowly retreated.
Well?
Kwai Xi looked up, only to see two rows of guards standing neatly outside the Golden Dragon Palace, and then the protagonist of the banquet appeared, King Cangping.
The bright yellow robe is embroidered with the pattern of the golden dragon and the clouds, under the surging golden auspicious clouds at the corner of the robe, the sleeves are carried high by the wind, and the eyes under the thick eyebrows are bright and bright, and the black is bottomless, with the prestige and innate nobility of the superior, the whole person emits a kind of breathtaking kingly atmosphere.
This is the lord of Cangping Kingdom, Baili Chun.
The woman standing next to Bai Lichun who was also wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe should be Jing Sangqing, the mother of the country.
Jing Sangqing was wearing a phoenix robe embroidered with a hundred birds and phoenix patterns, her black hair was all coiled up, a phoenix tail hairpin hung on her forehead, willow eyebrows, smiling eyes, and a mother of the country.
As soon as the king of Cangping Baili Chun appeared, the Golden Dragon Hall of Nuoda was suddenly silent, and the entire Golden Dragon Hall was filled with a cold and coercive atmosphere, and the lively sound of silk and bamboo just now also disappeared, and everyone looked at their noses and noses, looking like they were submissive.
The coercion of those who have been in power for many years is not something that ordinary people can bear.
Kwai Xi raised her eyebrows, just now they were obviously talking about everything, how could they suddenly be like a mouse meeting a cat.
In the entire Golden Dragon Palace, I am afraid that only Kwai Xi is still holding his head up, so as soon as Bai Li Chun stepped into the Golden Dragon Palace, the first thing he noticed was Kwai Xi who was sitting straight.
She was dressed in a simple red dress, her ankle-length black hair was untouched, her face was immature, there was a natural carved beauty, and there was an incomprehensible bewitchment, especially the eyes that looked at him without a trace of timidity.
"See Your Majesty!"
The ministers worshipped, and Baili Chuncai slightly retracted his gaze and walked towards the first place in the Golden Dragon Palace.
After Baili Chun sat steadily on the throne of the only golden lacquer carved dragon, he slowly raised his hand and said, "Envoys and Aiqing, please get up." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Next is a variety of birthday gifts, first of all, the princes of Cangping Kingdom took turns to present birthdays.
During this period, there are countless treasures.
It's just that to Meng Shan's surprise, there was no Bailizhou among the princes who offered the gift.
"For such a big event as the emperor's birthday, why didn't Xiaobai come?" Meng Shan muttered quietly.
He was worried about Bailizhou, so he thought about entering the palace with Gongyi Haotian, it would be better to talk to Bailizhou alone, and it would be relieved to see him safe and sound.
However, what Meng Shan didn't expect was that Bailizhou would be absent from the birthday banquet of Bailichun, the king of Cangping.
Meng Shan looked up at Baili who was the first to give a gift and was now sitting in the front row, and frowned.
He didn't overlook something.
After the princes finished offering gifts, they were followed by envoys from the other two countries, as well as envoys from the six great families.
The gifts are also dazzling, what the coral trees of the West Sea, the bright moon stones of the Araji Mountain, etc., are different.
It's all cliché stuff, and the person who listens to it is drowsy.
Kwai Xi watched it for most of the day, but she really didn't notice anything else.
Could it be that she really thinks too much.
During the time when Kwai Xi wrung his eyebrows and pondered, the part of the gift was quickly completed, and then the emperor waved his hand, and the birthday banquet began.
The sound of silk and bamboo remembered again, and the officials and envoys accompanied the emperor to enjoy the song and dance.
Aoi Xi was bored scratching her white chin to relieve her boredom, and she had no appetite for the dim sum dishes on the table, and her heart seemed to be hanging.
Obviously, she just came to see the play, why does it feel like she has walked to the front of the stage, this feeling is too uncomfortable.
I always feel that there is a pair of eyes behind her that have been staring at her, but no one in this world can escape her eyes!
Aoi Xi never thought that she would be calculated one day, because she could see through everyone's minds, knew everyone well, and knew any traps and ambushes in advance, so what was she afraid of?
There has always been a gaze sweeping in his direction in front of him, and Kwai Xi doesn't need to look up to know that it is King Cangping who is sitting in the first place.
She is fearless.
The careful thinking of those calculating people of King Cangping is not worth mentioning at all in front of her Kwai Xi.
Hmph, from the moment he entered the door, Aoi Xi had already seen through everything.
Just by relying on them, they also want to beat her idea, it's just a fool's dream.
As soon as Kwai Xi finished laughing at Baili Chun in his heart, he couldn't help but start acting.
Baili Chun waved his hand, and the dancing girl who was dancing immediately stopped in a witty manner, and then slowly and orderly retreated to the apse.
Waiting for the Golden Dragon Hall to calm down, Baili Chun raised his wine glass with a smile.
"I'm happy today, come, Zhong Aiqing will have a drink with me."
As soon as King Cangping spoke, everyone raised their wine glasses and congratulated King Cangping on the high position:
"I wish Your Majesty happiness is like the East China Sea, and longevity is better than Nanshan."
The uniform sound makes people wonder if this has been rehearsed a long time ago.
"Haha......"
King Cangping raised his glass with a smile and drank the wine, and everyone at the banquet also drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
After drinking, King Cangping said slowly: "Longevity is not a luxury, but when people are old, they begin to think about their children and grandchildren." ”
King Cangping patted Jing Sangqing's hand beside him, and said with a smile: "I and the queen have lived for most of their lives, and they think that the management of Cangping Kingdom is also in good order, and the people have no worries about food and clothing, and live and work in peace and contentment.
After this state affairs were taken care of, I and the queen began to think about wanting to enjoy the blessings of their children and grandchildren.
Haha......"
"Your Majesty is right, the concubine also wanted to hug the emperor and grandson.
Now that several princes are adults, they are waiting to see the emperor give Xu a splendid relationship? ”
Hearing Bai Li Chun's words, Jing Sangqing covered his lips and chuckled beside him, echoing the voice, as if she was a grandmother who was anxious to hug her grandson.
Speaking of which, there are many sons of King Cangping, but none of them have a family.
This big prince has no worries about his legs, and it is reasonable to say that he has not married, and other princes of the right age have also started a family one by one, but it is not suitable.
Bai Li Chun also knew that he had delayed the establishment of the crown prince, which made these princes guess and wanted to make a Bo.
After all, if you become a relative, you have to establish a mansion, and under normal circumstances, the princes who become relatives are directly crowned by the prince and moved out of the palace to live.
This means that there is no chance of the throne, so no one wants to withdraw from the battle for the throne first.
Their minds can be seen clearly, but they don't break it, but they just ......
Thinking of this, Baili Chun laughed twice.
