Chapter 119: The Palace Dinner
The sky turned from day to night again, and the lights in the big dream city were bright.
Qin Yun walked on the avenue, followed by Ling Feng.
Ling Feng was very beautiful tonight, she rarely painted makeup, and changed into a set of blue and white long skirts, this skirt Qin Yun rarely saw her wear on weekdays.
"Ling Feng, you're really dressed beautifully tonight," Qin Yun praised.
Ling Feng snorted coldly and did not speak.
Apparently still angry about what happened this morning.
Qin Yun scratched his hair, he had tried every means to please and coax him along the way, but Ling Feng was still lukewarm to him.
The two came to the palace, Yue Wushuang had been waiting for a long time, and there was an acquaintance of Qin Yun standing beside her, Qi Yue.
"It's such a coincidence, you're also here for the dinner?" Qin Yun said.
Qi Yue smiled and said, "Yes, by the way, who is this beautiful sister next to you?"
"Ling Feng"
"Oh, this is your senior sister you used to mention, hello, my name is Qi Yue" Qi Yue smiled and stretched out her hand.
Ling Feng shook hands with her, and the two could be regarded as acquaintances.
"By the way, Qi Yue, I don't know why you're here?" Qin Yun asked.
The Jiuli Kingdom and the Canglan Kingdom are separated by 108,000 miles, and Qi Yue should not come here even if he has nothing to do, and he found that Qi Yue seems to have the cultivation to build a foundation.
When I met her almost a year ago, she was just a mortal.
At most, it is more powerful than ordinary people, and knows some martial arts.
Qi Yue said: "It was the empress who called me here, when I was in Canglan Country before, I awakened the guardian beast Vermilion Bird of Canglan Country, its divine soul is now lodged in my body, and its power continues to nourish me.
It took me a year to absorb this power, and now I've only reached the foundation of Yae, and then recently, the empress recruited me into the palace to learn the cultivation method, and how to be a good monarch."
"Sovereign, are you going to succeed to the throne?" Qin Yun wondered.
"Yes, after my father's emperor was destroyed in the capital, his body gradually weakened, and now he can no longer be in charge of the government, and my eldest brother is unwilling to take over the throne because of the shadow of what happened a year ago.
And because I have the soul of the Suzaku Spirit, my father and the ministers of the court think that the throne should be passed on to me.
Qin Yun didn't expect that what he said casually at the beginning would really come true.
"No, even if you are here to study, why can't you study in Canglan Country, isn't it the same there?"
Yue Wushuang opened his mouth at this time: "Because Miss Qi and Your Majesty are distant relatives, Canglan Country and Jiuli Kingdom also have many connections."
Qi Yue nodded, "Well, Her Majesty is the daughter of my grandmother's grandmother's cousin's sister's cousin's daughter."
It's really far-reaching.
"Other than that, maybe because I'm also a woman"
"What, does this empress still like women?"
Qi Yue glared at Qin Yun, "A dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth, I mean because I am one of the few women who can rule a country, Her Majesty the Empress specially cultivated me."
"Oh, that's it" Qin Yun, who didn't hear the news he wanted, looked disappointed.
Yue Wushuang coughed lightly twice and said, "Three, it's not too early, let's enter the palace."
"Hmm"
The crowd walked into the palace together.
Tonight's palace is very lively, the whole palace is lit up, and the palace maids in gorgeous clothes carry delicious food to and from the main hall.
According to Yue Wushuang, this dinner was specially prepared to entertain Qin Yun's arrival.
Although this banquet is very high, after what happened this morning, Qin Yun always felt that this was a Hongmen banquet.
Stepping into the palace, Qin Yun looked around, the people who could enter this palace had a pivotal position in the Jiuli Kingdom.
Even the lowest-ranking officials have official positions of positive three grades.
Such a level is something that many people cannot reach in their entire lifetime.
Among these many official positions, the ratio of immortal cultivators to mortals is about fifty-fifty, which shows that the openness of the atmosphere of this Jiuli country will not despise you just because you are a mortal, nor will it attach importance to you because you are an immortal cultivator.
In addition to officials, there is also a group of kings and grandsons, in short, the big people who can come to Big Dream City are basically here.
Such a banquet can be said to have given Qin Yun enough face.
Yue Wushuang led the three of them to the seat and sat down.
There are four rows on the left and right sides of the banquet, Qin Yun sits in the first position in the front row on the left, and in the Jiuli Kingdom, it is usually respected on the left.
Next to Qin Yun were Ling Feng and Qi Yue, and behind him was General Mu, who had seen him before.
Today's General Mu, as usual, was still wearing a suit of armor, and he was sitting in his position drinking with a big grin.
Qin Yun said hello to her, and then went on with their own things.
As a salute sounded, a shrill voice shouted, "Your Majesty has arrived."
Everyone shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live"
Qin Yun and Ling Feng didn't shout, because they weren't from the Jiuli Kingdom in the first place, and they didn't need to stick to the etiquette of the Jiuli Kingdom.
But apart from them, the two people sitting opposite Qin Yun didn't shout.
One was a feminine-looking man who wore a black robe with strange patterns embroidered with silver thread.
The other is a woman, but this woman is wearing a veil and a purple dress, although she can't see her face, but she can be seen from her figure and her exposed eyes.
The two seemed to notice that Qin Yun was watching them, and nodded slightly at Qin Yun.
Empress Li Xuansu walked to the dragon chair in the hall and sat down, she looked down at the people below, her eyes stayed on Qin Yun, "Today's banquet is to welcome the Demon Cloud Sect Master Qin to my Jiuli Kingdom as a guest."
Qin Yun said: "On behalf of the Demon Cloud Sect, someone Qin thanked His Majesty for his hospitality"
"Sect Master Qin is polite, today's banquet, there is no distinction between the monarch and his subordinates, all the monarchs drink freely, and they don't get drunk and don't return."
The banquet officially began, and a group of dancing girls walked in from outside the hall, all of them were extremely beautiful, and their figures were also excellent.
The dance is charming but not enchanting, and it is extremely pleasing to the eye.
In the hall, many people came to toast Qin Yun, and after a while, Rao is Qin Yun's drinking power was also somewhat drunk.
Li Xuansu stepped down from the dragon chair, she came to Qin Yun's side with a wine glass, "Sect Master Qin, I have a jar of good wine here, which was sent by a neighboring country, it is rumored that even an immortal will get drunk if he drinks a glass, I don't know if Sect Master Qin dares to taste it."
Qin Yun was about to speak, but Ling Feng blocked in front of him at this time, separating him from Li Xuansu.
"Your Majesty, Qin Yun has drunk a little too much tonight, why don't I drink this glass of wine for him, how about it?"
Li Xuansu smiled and said, "Miss Ling, this wine is very strong, are you sure you want to try it?"
"Why don't you try?"
"Okay, serve the wine"
