The officials in the hall gradually entered the table, Mu Feng sat on the VIP seat and ate grapes boringly, his narrow peach blossom eyes swept the officials of the hall one by one, he turned his head and whispered to the white-bearded old man Dongfang Jing who was sitting beside him,

"Uncle Dongfang, I don't think the grapes of Baixi Country are as delicious as those of Xisha."

As he spoke, he put another grape into his mouth.

Dongfang Jing lowered his eyes helplessly, "Your Royal Highness, you have to know the purpose of our coming here. ”

Mu Feng waved his hand, "I know, I know, now there are people in the Mingyan Continent who are making trouble, led by the White Seal Country, implicating several countries, and the people who make the rebellion are powerful, if the White Seal Country falls, then the consequences of other countries are unimaginable." But fortunately, the person who made the rebellion has suffered heavy losses recently due to the incident in Mingyue City, and my father also wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue, so he sent us to visit the White Seal Kingdom, hoping that the two countries can form an alliance to jointly resist foreign enemies. ”

Dongfang Jing nodded with satisfaction. One hand strokes the white whiskers under the lips,

"It's good to know, we will stay a little long this time, and the prince should be more low-key."

Mu Feng didn't want to listen to Dongfang Jing's nagging anymore, and turned his head to look at the people who were coming in and out at the entrance of the main hall, trying to distract himself.

"Uncle Dongfang, do you see if that's ......?"

A grape was held in Mu Feng's mouth, and his gaze always stayed on the woman in brocade who had just walked into the main hall, Dongfang Jing followed Mu Feng's gaze, reacted for a moment, and said with some hesitation,

"Miss Huan?"

Bai Feiye and Ling Ling entered the main hall one after the other. Ling Ling deliberately distanced himself from him, always maintaining a respectful appearance.

King Jing's arrival naturally attracted the attention of many officials present, and many officials stepped forward to say hello to him, at this moment, Ling Ling was very grateful to him for walking in front of her, she bowed her head slightly, and followed the palace maid to her seat and sat down.

"The emperor has arrived."

Su Shen's voice came from the door, and the hall was instantly quiet, everyone stood up and saluted, and watched Bai Yixiu, who was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, walk onto the dragon seat.

"I have summoned everyone to come today, firstly, to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the prince of Mu Feng of the Xisha Kingdom who came from afar,"

Bai Yixiu pointed to Mu Feng in the VIP seat, Mu Feng got up and nodded to everyone elegantly, Bai Yixiu gave Ling Ling, who was sitting opposite Mu Feng, a look, he smiled faintly and continued,

"The second is to let everyone know the newly appointed city lord of Mingyue City. Ling Ling. ”

Ling Ling got up calmly, "Ling Ling, the city lord of Bright Moon City, has seen the emperor and everyone. ”

The brocade-clothed woman in the hall saluted elegantly, her gestures were generous, and on her delicate face like a flower, the corners of her mouth that were always raised made her look cold and soft.

"This, this, isn't this Xiahou Ling, the daughter of Prime Minister Xiahou?"

"That's not right, didn't Xiahou Ling burn to death in a fire in King Jing's Mansion three years ago?"

"But she and Xiahou Ling are almost exactly the same......"

"Is there anyone in the world who looks so alike?"

……

The officials exchanged heads and discussed countless times for a while.

"Bright Moon City City Lord......" Mu Feng thought about putting a grape into his mouth, raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "It's a little interesting." ”

Dongfang Jing's eyes on the side also had a hint of a smile, if it was the city lord of Mingyue City, he would have to go to great lengths to follow their caravan when he left his own city, like this......

Dongfang Jing touched his beard with a faint smile on his face.

Ling Ling ignored all the glances that were thrown at her around her, sat on the seat and poured a glass of wine, took a sip on her own, the moment the wine was imported, she frowned slightly, sniffed the wine in the cup, and took another sip, she called the palace maid behind her, and asked in a low voice,

"This is the wine of the palace banquet?"

The palace maid bowed her head and replied in a low voice,

"His Royal Highness King Jing instructed, saying that the Lord of Ling City would faint when he was drunk, and there could be no accidents at such an important palace banquet, so he asked the slave maid to deliberately replace the wine in the pot with water."

Ling Ling glared at Bai Feiye, who was elegantly tasting wine on the side, and it happened that he was also looking at her, his deep and charming starry eyes appeared soft, and there was a smile on his lips.

The hand holding the wine glass tightened, Ling Ling drank all the water in the glass, and said that everyone should return to their place. What does it mean to always meddle in her affairs now?

"Your Majesty, the minister is very curious about something, and wants to ask the Lord of Ling City for advice, I don't know?"

Shangguan Feng drank a glass of wine and stood up, his cheeks were slightly red, and his exploratory gaze never left Ling Ling's face.

"Today is a palace banquet, Prime Minister Shangguan wants to ask for advice, then ask for advice, just let me listen, what can arouse the curiosity of Prime Minister Shangguan."

The smile on Bai Yixiu's face deepened, and his gaze moved to Ling Ling, who was raising his glass to drink.

Receiving Bai Yixiu's answer, Shangguan Feng smiled proudly, his eyes were sharp, and he raised his voice,

"I heard that when the Ling City Lord took over Bright Moon City. Reshuffle all the people in the city and replace them with their own people, is this really the case? ”

Ling Ling thought for a moment, then got up and replied, "That's true. ”

"I heard that before the city lord of Ling took over, the emperor sent eight hundred elite soldiers to help, I don't know where these eight hundred elite soldiers are now?"

"Bright Moon City."

Shangguan Feng sneered, "Everyone in the world knows that Mingyue City has been personally managed by the emperor before the Ling City Lord took office, since the emperor trusts the Ling City Lord so much and hands over Mingyue City to you, dare to ask the Ling City Lord, what is the intention of staying the elite soldiers and replacing the people?" ”

The hall was silent, and as soon as Shangguan Feng's words came out, the people present looked at Ling Ling with different expressions.

Ling Ling looked at Bai Yixiu on the dragon chair, the smile on his face was still the same, as if he was not moved by Shangguan Feng's words in the slightest.

She put down her glass. Calmly walked in front of Shangguan Feng and smiled,

"Is the prime minister accusing me?"

Shangguan Feng looked at Ling Ling with contempt in his eyes, he looked upright,

"This official is just talking about things, and I hope that the city lord of Ling will not deliberately avoid the topic."

Looking at Shangguan Feng's face that already felt that she had been taken up, although Ling Ling didn't know what his purpose was to take the lead in attacking her, she was originally Bai Yixiu's shield against that person, since it was a situation controlled by Bai Yixiu, she naturally couldn't let the situation become unfavorable to Bai Yixiu.

The smile on her cold and moving face was undiminished, and she raised her eyebrows slightly,

"If you are so careful, you will still be discovered by the Prime Minister!"

Shangguan Feng's eyes lit up, and he immediately answered,

"Humph! You can still be so calm now, Prime Minister Ben really admires your mentality,"

Then he raised his voice again,

"Don't get it from the real yet!"

Ling Ling raised his hand and saluted Bai Yixiu on the dragon chair, calmly and calmly, not affected by Shangguan Feng in the slightest.

"Mingyue City has an excellent terrain, it is an important trade channel between the White Seal Kingdom and other countries, and the world knows that Mingyue City is directly controlled by the emperor, Ling Ling is very grateful to the emperor for his trust in Ling Ling, and handed over Mingyue City to me, but at that time, Mingyue City said that it was under the control of the emperor, but in fact, there were already people sitting on the ground as kings, and all the people of Mingyue City were replaced by their own people, and the situation was very bad. I told the emperor about this, and the emperor thought about my life and safety, and sent 800 elite soldiers to protect me. ”

"After driving out the thieves and taking back Mingyue City, in order to ensure the role of an important city for trade, a city cannot be without the support of the people, in order to take care of Mingyue City in the shortest possible time, so I arranged the people who are proficient in trade in Longyunmen into Mingyue City without authorization, and in order to prevent the thieves from coming again, before receiving the emperor's order, the eight hundred elite soldiers were also temporarily arranged by me to guard Mingyue City."

As she spoke, she looked at Shangguan Feng, who was arrogant on the side, and said contemptuously,

"Everything I said has already been written and reported to the emperor, if the prime minister still doesn't believe it, you can ask the emperor to confirm, or, I will order someone to prepare wine and food, and Mingyue City welcomes your visit."
