These days, Mu Huayin has been trembling.

As soon as she remembered the cold gaze that Xia Yichen cast at her when she left Huaqing Garden that day, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine.

Fortunately, she has been safe and sound in the past few days, and no one has come to trouble her.

Just as she was thinking, trouble came.

Gao Gonggong took the two eunuchs into Fengqi Palace, "Queen Mother, the slave passed on the emperor's message, please prepare to participate in tonight's palace banquet." ”

"Palace banquet?"

"Today, the envoys of Xiliang and Beiyan are visiting, and the emperor has set up a dinner in the palace to receive the envoys."

"Okay, Hongu knows."

On such formal diplomatic occasions, she, the nominal queen, must attend.

So, a room of palace maids began to help Mu Huayin groom and dress up.

She collapsed in her chair, surrounded by a group of people, some combing her hair, some rubbing rouge, and some wearing jewelry......

Suddenly, there was an illusion that life had reached its peak.

No, no, no, this is not an illusion, if she hadn't crossed over and became a queen, how could she have the pinnacle of this person and above 10,000 people in her life.

Thinking of this, she squinted her eyes comfortably, and the feeling of being served was really much cooler than doing it herself.

After this pass is cleaned up, it will be in the evening, the palace banquet is set up in the main hall of the Chang'an Palace, and there are more than a dozen small cases of two people and a table in the hall, and the case is filled with snacks before the official start of the palace banquet, there are elixir and jade liquid, dried fruit candied fruit, melon seed snacks.

When Mu Huayin came to the back of the hall, Xia Yichen had already arrived.

He is wearing a formal dinner palace dress today, with dark patterns and auspicious clouds on the collar and cuffs, and the bright yellow color that is difficult to control in the yin and yin, but wearing it on him shows off his noble temperament even more.

When he saw Mu Huayin, he didn't say much, and walked directly to the chairman of the palace, and Mu Huayin hurriedly followed him into the table.

For a while, the hundred officials got up and knelt down to greet him, "See the emperor, see the queen." ”

Although Xia Yichen is not very old, he may have experienced too many such scenes since he was a child, and his gestures exude a sense of majesty that reigns over the world. ”

Then, according to the usual practice, he began to deliver the leader's speech before the start of the dinner.

Mu Huayin wanted to yawn when she heard it, but unfortunately her stomach kept rumbling, reminding her that she hadn't eaten dinner yet.

She glanced at the exquisitely made and varied snacks in front of her, and glanced at Xia Yichen, who was expressionless and giving a speech, with some resentment.

Is there anything you can't say while eating?

As soon as Xia Yichen finished speaking, he got up and saluted, first touting the peace of the Great Xia country, the prosperity of the four seas, and the prosperity and strength are really a model for the countries to learn, and then began to sing praises for Xia Yichen.

When Xia Yichen heard this, he also praised Xiliang's strong national strength in recent years, and actively made friends with the surrounding countries, which is not what it used to be, and it is really not to be underestimated, and I hope that the two countries will have good relations from generation to generation.

This kind of business blows to each other, whether it is to talk about business or state affairs, it is indispensable.

It's almost blown and it's time to cut to the point.

"Your Majesty, I can't hide it, this envoy came this time on the orders of our lord, hoping that your country can return a batch of gifts that were seized on the border a few days ago, as well as release the officials who escorted the gifts."

"Gifts? What gifts? Xia Yichen showed a slight look of surprise on his face and looked at General Zhao who was sitting at the bottom.

General Zhao understood, got up and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen received a report from the border a few days ago, saying that they had intercepted a batch of gold, silver and jewelry from unknown sources, because the ins and outs of the matter have not been clarified yet, so Weichen did not report it, please forgive the emperor." ”

When the envoy of Xiliang heard that General Zhao happily admitted that this was indeed the case, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly nodded, "This is the dowry gift given by my country to the marriage of Chaoyun Kingdom, please return it by the emperor's order." ”

Xia Yichen frowned, "Marriage with Chaoyun Kingdom?" How come I don't know? ”
