Yu Li was obviously a little nervous, and said to Xia Yan, "Second Highness, what are you talking about... I just didn't know you were back... Otherwise..."

Without waiting for Yu Li to finish speaking, Xia Yan said to Yu Li, "Concubine Li, what's wrong with you? Seeing me so nervous... Are you afraid of something?"

Yuli said with an embarrassed face, "No... No... Second Highness, I'm just a little unwell..."

"I still want to talk to Concubine Li alone..."Xia Yan said with a smile.

"Another day." Yu Liqiang squeezed out a smile.

However, Xia Yan didn't mean to get out of the way at all and said, "Concubine Li, it won't take up too much of your time!" What are you afraid of? Or do you know something?"

At this time, Lu Qian stepped forward directly and said, "Concubine Li, you are here... The Queen Mother is looking for you... Come with me."

As he spoke, he pulled Concubine Li away.

Xia Yan grabbed Lu Qian and said, "You are Lu Qian..."

Lu Qian was a little surprised to see that Xia Yan knew him, and said, "Second Highness, I didn't expect that you still know the little one... It's such an honor to be small..."

Xia Yan looked at Lu Qian's appearance, smiled faintly and said, "I've heard a lot about you. We can talk when we have a chance."

Lu Qian smiled awkwardly, then arched his hand and said, "Okay, Second Highness. Then I'll take Concubine Li to get busy first..."

Xia Yan smiled faintly, glanced at Lu Qian meaningfully, and didn't say anything.

Lu Qian walked to Concubine Li's side and saw that Concubine Li's hands were still trembling.

He grabbed her and whispered, "Yuli, aren't you going to tell me about it now? What are you afraid of?"

Yu Li glanced at Lu Qian, and then said, "Lu Qian, I won't tell you, it's for your own good..."

Lu Qian was a little helpless.

I had to settle him aside, and this was not the place to speak.

At this time, Lu Qian noticed a commotion.

Then I looked at the place where there was a commotion, and it turned out that the twelve princes had come.

Even Prince Ying and Prince De came.

Aren't they under house arrest?

looked at Xia Yan greeted them with a smirk on his face and greeted them.

Obviously, it was Xia Yan who persuaded Xia Jiuyuan to release these two princes.

Apparently also to win them over.

It can also be seen how much Xia Jiuyuan cares about Xia Yan's son.

You must know that Xia Jiuyuan hated these princes the most before.

Prince Ying and Prince De swaggered in.

When he walked to Huo Xiaolin's side, he said to Huo Xiaolin very arrogantly, "Huo Xiaolin, it's not so easy for you to break us... As the saying goes, feng shui takes turns, and it's your turn to be unlucky!"

As he spoke, under the leadership of Xia Yan, he sat down on the side.

...

As time went on, everyone came in.

Xia Jiuyuan also supported the Empress Dowager Dou to appear.

Everyone present stood up and bowed down.

"Congratulations to the Empress Dowager Dou, Hong Fu Qi Tian, longevity and Tianqi!"

Empress Dowager Dou smiled slightly and said, "All Aiqing, all the envoys, get up."

Wait until they're seated.

Xia Jiuyuan said some polite official words.

Then, the birthday feast was announced.

And so the show began.

Lu Qian's rehearsal dance quickly attracted everyone's attention.

It attracted a lot of applause.

Just when everyone began to change the glass, Yun Qingquan and Zhou Linkai of the Great Zhou Kingdom stepped forward with wine to toast and congratulate their birthdays.

Obviously this is a code.

After they went up, the envoys of the small countries also stepped forward one after another.

Those assassins were also mixed in.

Lu Qian couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart, because he had already determined the appearance of those assassins.

So he can see.

When the Assassins stepped forward, they made eye contact!

Watching Xia Jiuyuan unsuspectingly and the envoys pushing the cup to change the lamp, defenseless.

Even the most recent forbidden army is two meters away.

By the time they react, I'm afraid Xia Jiuyuan will already be cold!

It seems that Xia Jiuyuan is going to die tonight!

Seeing this, Lu Qian subconsciously walked to Yu Li's side, so that he would protect him in a chaotic situation!

Lu Qian's eyes were staring at them tightly.

However, the next scene disappointed Lu Qian!

The envoys of those countries pushed their glasses and changed their glasses to the toast room, those assassins! They didn't even do anything.

Dozens of Assassins had a very good chance, but after drinking, none of them did anything.

Back to his place!

Lu Qian was stunned, what was going on?

The best emperor
