Chapter 273: The Dinner Party Begins

The feast in the court of the Water Moon Kingdom was held in an elegant and exquisite garden, and at this moment the garden was already full of flowers, singing and dancing.

There were not many people attending the banquet, including the queen of the Water Moon Kingdom, the mother of Yun Yue Ji and Yun Yue Meng's two daughters, "Chen Guifei", as well as the royal descendants of the Water Moon Kingdom, the crown prince, the prince, the princess, etc., adding up to about ten people.

Everyone is very clear about the recent situation on the border of the nine countries, and they also know that His Majesty the Emperor is facing a difficult choice, so recently, whether inside or outside the palace, the royal nobles are trying to be restrained and low-key, and they dare not have any singing, dancing and banquets.

But what everyone didn't expect was that tonight, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly ordered a banquet to be held in the palace, and hurriedly invited everyone to come to the banquet, which was really unusual.

On the way to the palace, these nobles also looked around for news and asked what was going on in the palace.

In the end, I got the news that Princess Limeng returned to the palace, and His Majesty held a banquet overnight to catch the wind and wash the dust for Princess Limeng.

After all, the three envoys of the barbarian tribe coerced the monarch of the Shuiyue Kingdom quite secretly, and almost no one knew about it, and when Li Mu gave the order, he did not dare to easily reveal Xiang Yun's identity, so everyone could only get the news of Princess Limeng's return to the palace from the city defense army.

In this way, everyone can be regarded as roughly aware of the significance of this banquet, and it must be for Princess Limeng to catch the wind and wash the dust.

At this moment, in the water pavilion on one side of the garden, two richly dressed women, under the service of the maidservants, sat in the water pavilion to watch the singing and dancing on the stage on the opposite bank.

One of them, a middle-aged beautiful woman with a graceful bearing and a graceful face, glanced at the beautiful and graceful woman beside her, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes, and then a smile appeared on her face.

"Huh...... Sister, I haven't seen you for a few days, but your complexion is getting better and better, unlike me, getting older and older. ”

When the woman on the side heard this, a subtle smile appeared on her face.

"Sister Queen said and laughed, my sister is the queen of a country, her mother is the world, and her bearing is graceful, how can she be compared with her sister. ”

"Giggle......" the queen smiled.

"My sister is so delicate and clear, and her mouth is so sweet, no wonder Your Majesty is so fond of her sister, and now she is about to take root in Qingning Palace. ”

"Sister......

Hearing this, the woman's face changed slightly, but she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

The queen's smile widened.

"Why is my sister so alarmed, my sister is also telling the truth, and now that Princess Limeng has entered Fengyun Academy, she will definitely do something in the future, and even His Majesty has high expectations for her.

Sister, as the mother concubine of Princess Limeng, you are naturally a mother and a daughter, and your identity is not ordinary, even your sister, the queen, has to slap you. ”

"Sister, your words are so serious, my sister really doesn't dare to do it!" the woman stood up with some trepidation and made a gesture to worship.

But the queen got up first and held the woman.

"Sister, this is a big court, if you give me this great gift and let Your Majesty know, won't you punish this palace?

"Sister Queen, my sister has no such intention!" the woman's eyes showed panic.

Seeing this, the queen showed a hint of mockery in her eyes, but she smiled and was relieved.

"Sister doesn't need to be so alarmed, my sister is just making a harmless joke with you, how can I really misunderstand my sister. ”

Seeing the shock in the woman's eyes, the queen said again.

"My sister is worried, my sister is jealous that Princess Limeng has entered Fengyun Academy, so she is angry with you?"

The woman said she didn't dare.

The queen waved her hand and said.

"Sister, don't worry, how can my sister be so petty, besides, now the prince is an adult, and he has achieved success.

His uncle has already rushed to the national capital from the Great Xia Kingdom, and is about to take the crown prince to participate in this year's national election of the Great Xia Kingdom, and there is a chance that he will be able to enter the "Holy Elephant Sect", which is a sect that is even more powerful than Fengyun Academy.

When the time comes, he and Princess Limeng will also be regarded as transcendent beings like fairies on the mountain, and the brother and sister will have to take care of each other!"

When she said this, the smug look in the queen's eyes was almost overflowing, and even with a strong sense of demonstration.

Your daughter will be able to enter the Fengyun Academy, but my prince's son will be able to enter the more powerful Icon Sect, and sooner or later he will surpass Princess Limeng!

And this woman is naturally Princess Limeng's biological mother "Chen Guifei", at this moment, hearing what the queen said, she is not good at fighting in the harem, she is still a little nervous in her heart, and she can only keep nodding her head.

And the queen was obviously not satisfied with this, she suddenly stroked her forehead and said.

"Huh...... By the way, Hongu seems to have remembered something.

A few days ago, the palace seemed to hear that Princess Shuiyue, who was married to Longcheng, fled from the Longcheng Palace without permission, and I don't know if it was true. ”

The princess of the water moon mentioned by the queen is naturally Yunyue Ji.

Before, she was the same as Yunyue Meng, and she didn't have the title of princess, just the county lord, but because she was going to marry the emperor of Fengyun Kingdom, she was named a princess.

In fact, the news of Yun Yueji's escape from the Dragon City of the Wind and Cloud Country had already been transmitted back to the Water Moon Country, but the matter was extremely hidden, and everyone had no definite news.

Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor secretly ordered that no one should talk about this matter, and the entire Water Moon Kingdom also pretended that this incident had not happened, but now the Empress mentioned this matter, which immediately made Chen Guifei's heart tighten!

"Sister...... Princess Shuiyue's courage is really not small, His Majesty personally gave her a marriage and made her the concubine of Fengyun Country, and she even dared to abscond.

If this matter spreads, regardless of whether Fengyun Country will investigate it or not, I am afraid that the people of Shuiyue Country will also criticize this matter.

Although Princess Limeng has now entered Fengyun Academy, I heard that the eldest prince of Fengyun Country is the most talented Tianjiao in Fengyun Academy.

If he is also troubled by this, he hisses...... Princess Reimu's great future will not be affected in any way. ”

The queen's words can be described as heart-wrenching, instantly connecting the two pieces of Chen Guifei's heart together, and between the words, it seems to be full of warnings and threats.

Even if Chen Guifei was not good at scheming, she realized the queen's intentions at this moment, and immediately bowed tremblingly.

"The queen mother is really thoughtful, this matter is indeed the fault of the child Yueji.

But the matter has happened, and I ask the queen to calm it down, don't mention this matter again, my sister is grateful, and I will remember my sister's kindness in the future, and don't dare to disobey. ”

Hearing this, the queen mother's eyes finally showed a smug look undisguisedly, and she sneered in her heart.

"Even if you rely on Princess Limeng, you will rise to prominence and be favored by Your Majesty, with my queen reigning for a day, you will never want to press on the head of this palace after all, not to mention, the family background of this palace is prominent, far from being comparable to you as a concubine without foundation!"

But on the face, the queen was smiling and supporting Chen Guifei, and sat down beside her, looking like sisters of one heart.

"Your Majesty has arrived!"

Suddenly, the voice of the little eunuch came from outside the garden.

Everyone in the garden, including the queen mother and Chen Guifei, immediately got up and came to the gate of the garden and knelt down to greet the emperor.

Under the worship of everyone, Yun Hong finally appeared in front of everyone with Yun Yuemeng, and everyone thought in their hearts that His Majesty really set up this banquet for Princess Limeng.

However, after everyone saluted and kowtowed, they suddenly found that there was still a person standing between Yunhong and Princess Limeng.

And he was a handsome young man dressed in simple and ordinary clothes, who looked no more than in his early twenties.

What shocked everyone even more was that Yun Hong and Princess Limeng seemed to be deliberately one step slower than the young man, and they actually looked like they were the main ones.

Everyone was extremely surprised in their hearts, and secretly exchanged glances, but no one knew the origin of this young man, and they had never seen this person.

At this moment, Yun Hong finally regained the majesty of the king of a country, waved his hand, made everyone flat, and began to sit down.

Although everyone had all kinds of doubts in their hearts, they didn't dare to come forward to ask at this moment, so they could only follow His Majesty behind him and enter the banquet hall one by one with doubts in their hearts.

On top of the banquet, the guest of honor seats have been set up, and the main seats are naturally for His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress Mother, and the first guest seat, according to convention, should be reserved for Princess Limeng.

However, this time, Yun Hong led Xiang Yun to the main seat and stretched out his hand to invite.

"Uh...... Please take a seat!"

Yun Hong hesitated, but after all, he didn't call out Xiang Yun's name.

There is no way, he hasn't gotten used to it yet, and he calls the name of the Supreme Elder of Fengyun Academy, even if the young man in front of him is his son-in-law!

Yunhong's approach suddenly surprised the royal family present.

His Majesty actually invited this young man to the throne, this kind of honor, but even the prince of Fengyun Country who visited the Water Moon Country back then did not have the treatment!

Who the hell is this young man?

The queen mother took Chen Guifei in a good mood before, and she was in a good mood at the moment, she wanted to follow His Majesty into the main seat, but when she saw this scene, her expression was also stiff, and she was stunned in place!

What is the situation? How could Your Majesty let this young man go to the main seat? Where should the main palace go and take a seat?

Seeing Yun Hong's actions, Xiang Yun also smiled bitterly, his father-in-law still couldn't adapt to his identity for a while.

If it was someone else, Xiang Yun would have taken the stage unceremoniously, but for his Lord Taishan, Xiang Yun didn't dare to really oppose the guest.

"Your Majesty, please ...... Please ......"

"This ......"

Yun Hong was about to persuade him, but Xiang Yun's eyes turned, but he just happened to see Yun Yuemeng, who was helping Chen Guifei.

Xiang Yun's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward and saluted Chen Guifei.

"This should be Chen Guifei!"

Seeing Xiang Yun who gave a gift to herself, Chen Guifei was stunned in her heart, and nodded a little apprehensively.

Xiang Yun suddenly showed a bright smile on his face, and said in a gentle voice.

"Why don't you invite the noble concubine and Your Majesty to take a seat!"

"This ...... How does this work?"

Chen Guifei subconsciously looked at the queen mother not far away, at this moment, the queen mother's face was almost green, looking at Xiang Yun's gaze, almost eating people!

Who the hell are you kid? Your Majesty is polite to you, let you take a seat, if you don't go, just kick your nose and face, and let Chen Guifei sit on the upper seat with Your Majesty, do you think the Water Moon Kingdom Palace is your home?

The queen mother was annoyed that this young man didn't know how to lift, and was about to step forward to climb the main seat on the high platform, but unexpectedly Yunhong glanced at Xiang Yun and saw him winking at herself.

Yun Hong suddenly understood what his son-in-law meant, and immediately spoke.

"Okay, in that case, Concubine Chen, you can be included in the main seat with me. ”

"Shhhh......h

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent, and everyone's eyes widened!

What's the situation, this young man said a word, His Majesty really let Chen Guifei take the main seat.

You must know that in the palace, the etiquette is strict, and the hierarchy is extremely strict, whether it is a large or small banquet, once the queen is there, no matter how favored the concubine is, it must be under the queen, but today......

Everyone was stunned, and the queen mother was even more dumbfounded, thinking that her ears had heard it wrong, and the whole person froze in place, motionless, with a blank face.

Seeing this, Yun Hong didn't have any expression on his face, just said lightly.

"Queen, you can sit at the same table with the crown prince. ”

......
