Time passed little by little, the state banquet was pulled under the expectation of everyone, this day is destined not to be peaceful, dark, bright, warm, calculating, all of which will kick off on this grand stage, but is there really a winner in this scene?

-Qianqing Palace-

"See the emperor" The queen of a hundred birds sprinkled gold and worshiped in the phoenix, in the sun, the peacock feathers on the auspicious clothes shone with a pale green light, and the phoenix dance on the chest of the nine days of red gold necklace, even more expensive. Ruyun's sideburns are combed into a Lingyun bun, and a pair of nine-tailed phoenix hairpins show the queen's noble status.

"The queen is here, and it's been hard these days." Shangguan Yu said with a smile, raised his hand to help the queen, because it was a state banquet, Shangguan Yu rarely wore a red Kowloon auspicious cloud robe, a warm jade belt around his waist, a double dragon pearl cloisonné crown, his eyebrows were thick and ink, his eyes were like the deep sea, and he hid an impenetrable emotion.

"Don't dare, the concubine is just helping." The queen said with a smile.

"Queen Guoqian, go and say hello to the queen mother." Shangguan Yu said no more, and said with a smile.

"Yes"

The palace gradually became busy, waiting for the masters of each hall to invite them to go, and the palace maids and eunuchs of the entire palace are looking forward to the state banquet, in the heart of benevolence, when the state banquet of the Celestial Dynasty is in the past, all the palace maids and eunuchs who have nothing to do can participate in the banquet, or watch. This year's state banquet is more grand than in previous years, and the princes of Beidi and Liao Kingdom have participated, so it will be more lively.

And the eunuch houses outside the palace were also busy early in the morning. Although the state banquet is said to be in the evening, it is necessary to freshen up and prepare to stop this morning, and then line up to enter the palace to meet the queen mother and queen. Of course, there are also some special people, such as Zhenguo Mansion, Xinguo Mansion, and Qingguo Mansion, all of which are relatives of the emperor, and they entered the palace early to meet everyone.

"Meet the emperor's grandmother, uncle, and aunt." Yunshang smiled and bowed down slowly, a water-green waterfront flower collared skirt, with a lotus blue beaded flower-shaped belt, in this slightly stuffy hall, it felt like a spring breeze blowing, the black hair was pulled into a fallen horse bun, decorated with a blue lotus jade pendant, decorated with a light pink cloud silk ribbon, apricot eyes slightly curved, and a smile like honey.

Yun Xuan stood on the side of Yun Shang with a dark purple eight-treasure pattern embroidered cloud brocade, holding his hair with black jade, his long hair was sprinkled behind him, and his waist was tied with a green jade belt. Smile warmly, with a soft light in her eyes.

"Okay, get up." The Queen Mother nodded and said with a smile.

"Meet the Queen Mother, the Emperor, and the Queen's Mother" Zhen Linxuan sat in the concubine's ruyi cloud pattern woven gold makeup satin skirt lined with white snow, lips like delicate flowers, flowers bloomed on the skirt, and a light pink beaded flower-shaped belt was tied around the waist, which was delicate and not very folded.

"Well, good boy, why does the mourning family look like it matches Xiang'er's clothes very well, one red and one green, what are you?" The Queen Mother asked with a smile, although the program gift list has been sent, looking at it, I am afraid that Xiang'er will let the protagonist out, that's it, that's it, it's okay.

"Grandmother will know when the time comes." Yunshang said mischievously.

"Well, okay, Xiang'er, come." The Queen Mother beckoned to Yunsheng.

"Yes"

When Yunshang approached, the Queen Mother lowered her voice and asked, "The eyes of the mourning family looking at this Xuan'er are not on your sister. ”

Hearing this, Yun Sheng secretly smiled and said, "Grandmother Huang has good eyesight. ”

"Well, Xuan'er, you're not young anymore, you used to fight abroad, and the mourning family couldn't say anything, but now that you've returned to Beijing, the marriage can't be delayed any longer, Xiang'er, which girl do you think is suitable for your brother? How is Xie Jiayao, the daughter of General Xie's mansion? All of them are from military backgrounds. The Queen Mother asked pretending to be serious.

Yun Xuan was stunned when he heard this, and bowed down calmly: "Thank you for the kindness of the Queen Mother, it's just that the grandson already has a sweetheart." ”

"Oh? Who is it? The Queen Mother looked at the quiet Yun Xuan and Zhen Linxuan, who was a little nervous not far away, with interest.

"Sun Er hasn't asked her what she means, I don't know ......" Yun Xuan slowly got up, approaching Lin Xuan step by step, and his heartbeat gradually became unbalanced.

And at this moment, Lin Xuan looked at Yun Xuan's firm steps towards herself, her cheeks reflected, and she didn't know what to do for a while. Looking up, I saw that the Queen Mother looked happy to see it happen, and at this moment, the two elders smiled at each other, as if they were just waiting for this scene.

I only felt that it seemed that after an hour, Yun Xuan stood in front of this Lin Xuan, nervously took out a pair of blood jade love swords from his sleeve, and asked affectionately: "I don't know if Sister Lin Xuan is willing to hold hands with me in this life?" ”

Lin Xuan looked at the pair of blood jade love swords in Yun Xuan's hand, and the corners of her mouth curved, she didn't know what to do, this pair of blood jade love swords heard that they were passed down from generation to generation in the Zhenguo Mansion, and they were specially prepared for the princess, Yun Xuan's move was undoubtedly asking Lin Xuan if she was willing to become her own princess.

However, without the orders of his parents and the words of the matchmaker, it was really rude for him to take over the religion in front of the Queen Mother, the Emperor, and everyone in the Three Mansions.

"Imperial grandmother, what should I do? Lin Xuan doesn't seem to be willing? Brother? Yunshang said as if depressed.

"I~" Lin Xuan was anxious, frowning slightly.

"Huh? That Lin Xuan didn't want to? Mother, I'm a little confused. Yunshang looked at the eldest princess with a smile and said.

The eldest princess chuckled and said to the mother of the Xinguo Mansion, Xie: "Mrs. Xie, I like Lin Xuan's child very much, so I dare to take advantage of this state banquet to please me, is Mrs. Xie willing?" ”

Mrs. Xie looked at her daughter's shy appearance with a smile, and then looked at Xia Yunxuan, handsome and handsome, even younger, and often accompanied Lin Xuan to practice dancing during that time, and she was also clear, and her feelings can be seen. In addition, the eldest princess and General Xia are both frank people, and there is a good sister like Yunshang, so you can't be wrong.

"I also like Yun Xuan's kid very much." Mrs. Xie said with a smile, she doesn't call Major General Xia anymore, and the change in this title means that she has recognized this son-in-law.

Yun Xuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and bent over with his eyebrows in his hand holding the Blood Jade Love Sword. Yun Sheng looked at the situation and slowly stepped off the high platform, took Lin Xuan's hand and said, "Good sister-in-law, but I feel sorry for my brother." ”

Lin Xuan's cheeks turned red, she raised her hand and took out a blood jade sword, and looked at Yun Xuan with the corners of her mouth raised shyly, and her eyes were affectionate.

"Please ask your uncle to give me a marriage." Yun Xuandao didn't give Lin Xuan a chance to breathe, and directly asked for marriage. was so ashamed that Lin Xuan couldn't wait to leave quickly.

The emperor seemed to be infected by this joyful atmosphere, glanced at the eldest princess who was smiling, clenched his right hand slightly, and said with a smile: "Such a beautiful thing should be accepted." ”

"Pen and ink waiting!" The big eunuch beside Shangguan Yu shouted at the top of his voice, but in a moment, a holy decree for marriage was completed.

"Such a happy event is at the state banquet, and the mourning family should talk about it well." The Queen Mother is old, and she likes such lively things the most, and she is happy in her heart.

"Congratulations to my brother" Yunshang said happily, in her previous life, Lin Xuan was depressed after marriage, and she was not in harmony with the second emperor brother, until she realized that her brother and Lin Xuan had feelings for each other, and it is no wonder that Lin Xuan's brother asked to guard the border after she got married, and she was stupid when she thought about it. In this life, I want to see your happiness.

"Seeing that a lover finally becomes a family, this palace is very pleased." Concubine Li said with a smile.

"Yes, I was tied up that day, and my brother had no way to find ideas from Lin Xuan, I'm afraid I was moved at that time, right?" Yun Sheng smiled and pointed at Yun Xuan and said, Concubine Li's intention to say this can be described as insidious, my brother is a man, and I love Lin Xuan so much that I can spread a good story, but if Concubine Li said that a lover will eventually become a family, I don't know how to arrange Lin Xuan when it is passed out.

"Well, Yunshang's escape that day is inseparable from Sister Linxuan's on-demand, who can not be tempted by such a smart daughter?" Yun Xuan didn't care about expressing his thoughts. This world is too mean to women, and all I can do is to work hard to protect my beloved and protect her from those rumors.

"Yun Xuan, this son of the world cherishes my second sister the most, Yun Xuan should cherish it." Zhen Linxin instructed solemnly, and her eyes slanted at Concubine Li, who was smiling slightly.

Concubine Li secretly looked at the harmonious crowd unhappily, originally thinking of taking this opportunity to ask the emperor to give Jinmo a marriage, but in this way, the limelight was snatched away by Xia Yunxuan and Zhen Linxuan, so she had to look at Jinmo and wait for the state banquet to start.

"The hour is almost up, Queen Mother, do you want to move the Taihe Palace?" Shangguan Yu asked in a deep voice.

"What the emperor said is, let's move the car."

"Move to the Taihe Palace~~"

Everyone went to the Taihe Hall with the Queen Mother, the Emperor, and the Queen.

The Taihe hall is 12 rooms wide and 6 rooms deep, which is used for the main hall. The center of its hall is supported by six gold-painted gold silk nanmu pillars, the periphery is lacquered red gold silk nanmu pillars, the four corners of the hall are placed gilt copper fetal crane carving stove, and the ministers have been seated. Five tables are placed on a high platform above the three steps of the main hall.

In the middle is the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen are seated, and the two on the left are Bai Guifei, Duan Fei, Li Fei, and Wen Shufei sitting. On the right side are the princes of Beidi and Shuote Bayar and Bai Yinfei, the prince of Liao. The princes sat on the high platform with the lower section on the right, and the concubines sat on the lower platform on the left side according to their positions.

After everyone sat down, Shangguan Yu slowly raised the golden bottle and said: "Today is the time of the state banquet, the whole country celebrates, may my Celestial Empire era prosper!" ”

"Long live my emperor, long live long live!" The ministers toasted together.

Bai Yinfei raised his glass and said: "On behalf of the Liao State, this palace wishes the emperor a long life and a prosperous Celestial Empire. ”

Seeing Bai Yinfei raise his glass, Bayar didn't dare to say: "This palace represents Beidi and wishes the Heavenly Dynasty eternal years." ”

"Please" "Please"

At this time, the drum sound is more and more excited, only to see four waiters carrying a huge drum to the center of the hall, on the drum surface stands a woman in purple, with a slender waist, the sword in her hand flies, with the woman's pace in the huge drum surface rumbling sound, the woman's makeup is delicate and a little heroic, it is really Xie Jiayao, the atmosphere of this dance out of the hall was immediately ignited.

The state banquet officially kicked off.
