Five days later, the magnificent Chaoyang Hall in the palace.

The banquet was much smaller than the birthday of Emperor Yongding. Only officials and their families of fourth ranks and above participated, so the seats were slightly different.

The two steps paved by Bai Nuanyu still have a slight curve, giving the angular Chaoyang Hall a soft breath. The top layer of white jade stairs still have two gold-making tables and chairs arranged side by side.

The second floor was completely empty, and today the seats of the prince and several princes were placed under the steps. Prince Mingzhao sat on the left, and his lower heads were King Jin Ye Shurui and King Xuan Mingkai; the chief and the second seats on the right were both empty, which should be left for the third prince of Tianli Kingdom Murong Bai and Princess Wenqi, followed by King Yu Mingjun.

Later, the family was arranged according to the ranks of the ministers, and the family members sat behind the ministers, and the royal family members were also placed in a good position. In this way, the entire hall looked full of guests, but the atmosphere was a bit solemn.

Although today is a welcome banquet, it is also a veritable state banquet. Before the emperor and the guests arrived, the attitudes of all officials and their families were particularly solemn. Only one person leaned slanted on the seat and closed his eyes to rest, his posture was leisurely, and the corners of his lips were flying.

Prince Mingzhao looked at the person sitting next to him who was sitting next to him, shook his head helplessly, trying to remind him, but the whole palace was silent and the needles could be heard, so he had to go with him. He glanced around and did not see the seat of the general's mansion, so he knew that his uncle was on the battle, and his grandfather and cousin both pushed the banquet and did not come.

Ye Shurui searched all corners early in the morning, but did not see Nalan Wan. He thought that it was true, but his eyes could not hide his disappointment. He closed his eyes silently, and he felt that he hadn't seen her for a long time.

"The emperor arrived, and the concubine Hui arrived--"

Emperor Yongding still walked with a dragon and tiger stride, his expression was not as happy as the last birthday, and replaced by the emperor's majesty. It can be seen that he was really not happy with the princess of Tianli Kingdom coming to Minglan Kingdom at this critical moment. The ministers were fine, and many wives and ladies had never experienced such a scene. They were always cheering up in their hearts and dared not move.

After Emperor Yongding sat down, the families of all officials knelt down and bowed, and an eunuch shouted:

"The third prince of Tianli Kingdom and Princess Wenqi meet with you--"

The hall was silent, and countless people turned their attention to the gate of the Chaoyang Hall. After a moment, two people stepped in from the gate. The man was old and old, wearing a black brocade robe, a white jade pendant, a crown and jade, and a royal style all over the body. The woman beside him was in her 20s and 28 years old, in her prime, with a bright face as autumn moon, wearing a scarlet top, a black lower skirt, and a rich peony embroidered on the hem of the skirt, layered and beautiful.

Good figure! Many court officials couldn't help but secretly cheer in their hearts when they saw the royal family of Tianli Kingdom.

"Murrong Bai (Murrong Qi) has met the Emperor Minglan." The brother and sister came to the middle of the hall and saluted Emperor Yongding in a regular manner.

Emperor Yongding's eyes flashed slightly, and he laughed: "Prince Tianli and the princess came to my Minglan Kingdom from thousands of miles away. The journey is exhausted, sit down quickly."

The two of them thanked each other, their eyes were faint, and they sat calmly.

But seeing Murong Bai's straight body, his eyebrows and eyes are cold, and his facial features are pretty and handsome, his whole body is luxurious and cold. He sits there without anger and is so arrogant that he dare not approach it. On the other hand, Princess Wen Qi is also arrogant, and after sitting down, she looks like she is not close to her.

The court officials of Minglan Kingdom looked at each other, not sure what the Tianli Kingdom sent two difficult-to-get-close masters to Minglan Kingdom for. Prince Mingzhao and Ye Shurui exchanged glances silently, and both of them saw vigilance and interest in each other's eyes.

"The third prince of Tianli Kingdom and Princess Wenqi first came to our country. I wonder if I am still used to it?" Hui Fei asked after receiving the gesture from Emperor Yongding.

Murong Bai was surprised that the first person to speak was Emperor Yongding's concubine. He lowered his eyes and replied lightly: "Shang Hao, thank you for your concern."

The reasonable and concise answer also ended a topic. This situation is obviously a bit tricky. The envoys from other countries generally talk about approachable things. Now this situation is really the first time to encounter.

"It's good to get used to this glass of water. I wish you the third prince and the princess to welcome you to Minglan Country." Prince Mingzhao picked up the wine glass, his calm and gentle eyes fell on Murong Bai and Princess Wenqi, and said with a gentle smile.

Seeing Prince Mingzhao speak, the ministers breathed a sigh of relief, and Emperor Yongding, who was the leader, also showed a smile of appreciation. The visitor was a guest, and they should be treated with courtesy, but as an emperor, he could not let go of his figure and be too enthusiastic. It would be best if the prince came forward at this time.

Murong Bai's cold eyes opened slightly, looked at Prince Mingzhao for a moment, and then he held up the wine glass with both hands, "Thank you, Prince Minglan." After that, he raised his head and drank the wine.

"Thank you, Princess." Princess Wenqi also raised her glass and drank it all.

Both brother and sister didn't say much. Seeing that the wine glass was placed on the table, it was about to be in a cold situation again. Prince Mingzhao smiled casually and then said, "The third prince and the princess have come to our country for the first time. Why not enjoy our dance music? When we are drunk, let's talk about other things, how about it?"

When Murong Bai heard this, he couldn't help but look at Prince Mingzhao more and lowered his eyes, "It's great."

Although he was cold, no matter what Minglan Country said, he agreed. The civil and military officials in the court could not figure out what the other party was trying to do, and could only be careful in such a depressed atmosphere.

But what they found even more strange was that Ye Shurui, the playboy prince who had always been singular and claws, had never said a word from the beginning of the banquet today! If it were to meet such a cold but polite difficult guy in the past, Ye Shurui should have spoken sarcastically, but today he was extremely silent.

Prince Mingzhao ignored Murong Bai's indifference and still issued orders gentle and graceful orders, "Come, tell me music and dance."

The palace maids received the order, and the sound of silk and bamboo suddenly rang in the quiet hall. The sound of the piano was melodious, the sound of the flute was low, and the sound of the Xiao was melodious... Then, sixteen palace maids entered from both sides of the hall and danced gracefully with the music of being together.

Sixteen palace maids were wearing the same hammer bun, wearing unique headbands, narrow shirts, and slender colorful ribbons between their arms, which were gorgeous and beautiful.

Murong Bai still lowered his eyes, and he didn't even look at the music and dance in the venue, not knowing what he was thinking. However, Princess Wenqi was quite interested in the unique music and dance in the venue, and watched it with relish.

After a dance, Prince Mingzhao was about to say something when he heard a long shout of a soldier's call for a long time, one after another: "Report--"

Everyone in the hall couldn't help but change their faces. When they recalled the border war, they prayed in their hearts that it was bad news.
