The Hajj is celebrated on the last day of the year.

Christmas is the first day of the year.

The state banquet is the emperor's annual reception time of the empire, which lasts from evening to late at night after the end of the Hajj, until more than half of midnight, witnessing the flow of the sun and the moon, the renewal of Vientiane, and the meaning of carrying on the past and opening up the future.

Since the time of Emperor Taizong, this tradition has not changed. Because of this, the people of the Tianyuan realm have this unified custom, which is called "keeping the year".

The state banquet also has deep political significance.

The guests of the banquet are the envoys of the kingdom of heaven who are resident in the Shendu and the heavyweights of the countries who are now living in the Shendu, even if those envoys who are too small to enter the Shengping Hall because the country is too small and their status is not enough, they will also have a special person from the Ministry of Rites to set up another banquet in other places accompanied by the envoys of the Four Emperors for grand reception.

The accompanying guests include the important ministers of the central court of the imperial court, that is, those courtiers who enter the Jinluan Palace, as well as the pilgrims who come from the local places every year;

In addition, there are the high-ranking generals of the Imperial Army, as well as all the knights.

Emperor Xuanyuan led a large team of nearly 2,000 people to the Shengping Palace, and in front of the Shengping Palace, which was brightly illuminated, four emperors of the ancient dynasty took the empress, and thousands of invited envoys from various countries were waiting around them.

As soon as the two sides met, everyone held hands and greeted each other, and entered the temple together.

Tonight's Shengping Hall is illuminated like day by bright lights, and festive and lively music resounds inside and outside the hall, as well as various singing and dancing performances.

A huge Shengping Hall has become a noisy and cheerful palace. There is no dignified and solemn, only a deliberately created scene of affinity and joy.

After the greetings, they returned to their seats and took their seats.

Those pilgrims who had come from small places and had never seen such a grand scene also gave them guidance by the eunuchs and palace maids who traveled everywhere with their spirits.

Wei Sanbao is like a musician who conducts Ruoding, for tonight, all the personnel in the imperial city have undergone a long training under his fine arrangement, from the chef in the imperial dining room, to the musicians singing and dancing, to the selection and rehearsal of tonight's songs in the Shengping Palace, lighting design, to the service of the palace maids and eunuchs, etc., everything is perfect.

The ambassadors of the nations sat in the middle of the hall, and the first few tables were the envoys and representatives of the great powers.

And sitting on the left side are the important ministers of the court and all the pilgrims, led by Qin Mu and the six important ministers.

Sitting on the right side are the generals in the army and all the knights, headed by Wei Chiba and Zhang Songlin, the commander of the Great Sect.

And Emperor Xuanyuan, who carried his own queen and four younger brothers and sisters side by side on the main seat, he was in the center, and the other four emperors lived on both sides of the Emperor Xuanyuan did not know that from the moment he appeared in the Shengping Palace, there was a pair of bright eyes in the crowd of knights who were inexplicably secretly watching him.

Emperor Xuanyuan and several younger brothers talked and laughed in a low voice, and were occasionally amused by some jokes in the show, and then there were envoys from all over the world who lost no time in losing the opportunity to see the stitches, but they were orderly with each other and knew that they came to congratulate him one by one, and he also talked with each other cordially.

As for every time at this time, someone secretly transmits the voice, telling him that this person is so-and-so, and there is no need to mention that he is from such and such a country, anyway, in the mouth of Emperor Xuanyuan, he knows every one of them, and can even tell some small anecdotes about them.

After the qualified envoys consciously congratulated in order, Emperor Xuanyuan and Empress Xuanyuan picked up the wine glass, and each had a small palace maid holding a wine jug to accompany them, they first walked to the middle of the envoy team, saying that the world is one family, peace depends on everyone, work together to build a new world, wish the world, wish tomorrow Yunyun, and then, drink three cups together.

Then, I walked to the middle of the seats of the important ministers of the court and the pilgrims, and said that everyone has worked hard this year, and will continue to work hard in the coming year.

Finally, he took the queen to the right side of the main hall.

This year, at his request, it is like the imperial court inviting pilgrims, and has made great adjustments...... Although the best of the best have been selected, screened and screened, and finally the number of people who came here has reached 839, which is several times that of the past.

Say that everyone is their own family, deep feelings, a mouthful, cooing, three cups of boldness.

Toast nine glasses and the mission is accomplished.

Generally speaking, among these three groups of people, they should be separated from each other, and it is indeed this group that is closest to them. Even those who were knighted belonged to this large group.

Only military merit can be knighted, the same is divided into real and virtual seals, and the actual sealers can be awarded a country according to the corresponding merits, but because there are fewer and fewer places that can be divided, more and more merits are required for real seals, and many people's lifetime merits are worth one or two towns, or far away in the deserted and uninhabited land, so now most of them choose to be falsely sealed, and unlike the virtual kings who have descended from generation to generation, their titles are descended from generation to generation, which can maintain the wealth of the family for a longer time, and as long as a talent who can be knighted is cultivated during this period, the family status can be maintained, just like Xue Fuzhen to Wei Yuanbo, there are not a few similar examples, he is just the most outstanding one, so, the army and the nobles of the military merit knighthood can be seen as a whole.

He secretly cast gas seals on the eight hundred and thirty-nine targets, and walked around talking.

Turning around, he came to the side of the second child, he was sharing a table with Zeng Fan, Xue Li and a few other young people at the moment, munching on the desk, and sometimes looking up to watch the well-choreographed and festive performance in the distance.

Because each knight can bring another person to participate in the state banquet, some bring their wives to focus on lady diplomacy, and some bring the most successful sons and nephews in the family to increase their knowledge, but the second prince is willing to fall into the mix with these little guys, which is really worthy of being the second king.

The courtship battle he has now launched against Xiao Mi, the vice president of the women's hospital, who is more than twice as big as him, has caused a sensation in the women's hospital, and the "two kings" who have been unknown have become a blockbuster, and even the people of Shendu have taken it as a trend to discuss this matter.

Two schools of thought have been formed, one is the majority, scolding others for being scumbags, perverted, unscrupulous, and there is no good word anyway; It is said that some literati wanted to use this as a prototype to compose poems of love.

Seeing the eldest brother and sister-in-law approaching, he greeted with a smile, but the sister-in-law glared at him angrily and ignored him. He laughed dryly and continued to eat and drink, he didn't know why, his appetite had become much bigger.

He didn't know that he had been used as an experiment by the unscrupulous big brother, military energy, martial energy, fighting spirit, and food energy, fusing the four qi into one, just to see if he could cultivate a monster.
