The banquet was held in Feifeng Palace. After the emperor and the queen sat down, the ministers and their family members came forward to celebrate their birthday in turn.

Yan Mu and Liu Yunxiang were in front. When they were reciting the congratulations, the queen turned blue and glared at Liu Yunxiang fiercely. The emperor also frowned. It was probably because the old prince had analyzed the pros and cons with him. At this moment, Yan Mu was very disliked.

After reading the congratulations, the two sat back. In front of them were the fourth prince and the fourth prince's concubine, and in front of them was the third prince's concubine leading the young prince.

Liu Yunxiang turned around and nodded at the two of them. It was not appropriate to speak on this occasion, and the three of them understood it in their hearts.

After finishing the congratulations, the princess of the West Vietnam and the envoys arrived.

Liu Yunxiang turned around and saw that a group of women in exotic costumes walked into the hall. When these women made way out, a young woman wearing gold ornaments and jade walked in. She still had a veil on her face.

He went to the hall to follow the etiquette of the Western Yue Dynasty.

The princess of Xiyue said the congratulations, which turned out to be authentic Central Plains words.

"In addition to sending birthday gifts to the Queen, I also sent a generous gift to the emperor on behalf of my brother."

"You are polite to the King of Xiyue, I don't know what it is?" the emperor asked with a smile.

The Princess of Xiyue turned her head and looked at the envoy behind her. The envoy clapped her hands. Two Xiyue warriors came over with a wooden frame. What was there on the frame, but they were covered with red cloth.

Seeing this scene, the queen couldn't help but glar at Liu Yunxiang again. Could it be the same routine?

However, when the red cloth was opened, everyone was so shocked that they stood up. It turned out to be a large piece of white jade, and the jade face was carved with a map of the country.

Such a large piece of jade is very rare, but judging from its texture, it is obviously Western Yue jade, which is priceless. The map of the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains carved on it is very detailed and appears in front of you under the luster of luster.

This gift is really valuable. The emperor was very satisfied and happy. He hurriedly asked the guards to sit down and arranged for the envoys of the Western Yue to sit down.

The queen asked someone to set up a square table beside her and invited the Xiyue princess to come.

The Princess of Xiyue was wearing a veil, and no one saw her face at this time. When she passed Yan Mu and the others' table, she paused and glanced again before going up.

Liu Yunxiang twitched, "She won't like you anymore, right?"

Yan Mu cursed in a low voice, "I shouldn't have looked so good."

The Princess of Xiyue came to marry her, which is a consensus reached by the Three Kingdoms.

The envoy of the Western Yue Dynasty was followed by the envoy of the Northern Jin Dynasty. He was led to the hall from Changning. Liu Yunxiangyuan was not curious, but at first sight, she was shocked.

She actually forgot that Pei Xuan often went to various countries as an envoy, and the marquis he received was not an empty title.

Pei Xuan congratulated the congratulations, and in addition to sending the queen's birthday gift, he also prepared surprises for the emperor, which were five hundred bloody war horses in the Northern Desert.

"It's just that it's winter now, and it's snowy and ice everywhere. It's not suitable to send it to the capital, so I'll put it in your Zhenbei Pass first." Pei Xuan said.

The emperor's smile froze. When he arrived in Zhenbei, it was not included in his hands. But it was difficult to tell outsiders that his own affairs were not easy to express, so he had to thank Emperor Beijin for his kindness.

Yan Mu used his hands to block the smile at the corner of his mouth. Leng Yuxian was indeed loyal, but he gave him five hundred war horses by giving gifts to the emperor.

All parties sat down. While drinking, Liu Yunxiang raised his glass toss and rushed Pei Xuan across from him to respect him. They were not only friends, but also partners who trusted each other. Their business empires had already spread to the west of the West Vietnamese.

Pei Xuan raised his cup, looking very proud. After receiving the toast from Liu Yunxiang, he raised his head and drank a glass, and even squeezed his eyes at her.

Liu Yunxiang was confused and had to drink the wine first. When she retracted her gaze, she accidentally swept Lu Changan, who was not far from Pei Xuan, and he was also looking at her.

The two of them had a gaze. Liu Yunxiang thought of the words he and Murong Lingyi had just been in the garden, and frowned and withdrew his gaze.

The Princess of Xiyue and Princess Changning sat next to the queen. The queen talked to them with a smile on her face. Changning looked at Yan Mu from time to time, looking like she was indescribable to express her affection. The Princess of Xiyue also went from time to time.

Looking here, those eyes were hot, and they were shiny when they saw Yan Mu.

Liu Yunxiang twisted Yan Mu speechlessly. Yan Mu was still communicating with the old prince. It was obvious that the communication was not smooth. The old prince blew his beard and glared, Yan Mu gritted his teeth. He was twisted by Liu Yunxiang for no reason. Yan Mu hissed in pain.

, looking back at Liu Yunxiang.

"What are you doing?"

Liu Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief, "The hands itched."

"ah?"

Liu Yunxiang shook her head, "Why didn't you see Qin Fei?"

Yan Mu looked around and saw Shangguan Xu staying around the emperor, but he didn't see Qin Fei.

At this time, the old prince asked, "Hey, where is King Anqing? He didn't enter the palace?"

Shangguan Xu replied: "Report to the old prince, King Anqing went to the palace early in the morning to celebrate his birthday to the queen. He said it was the Qianqiu Festival, and the whole world was celebrated together. The city was very lively. This was the end of defense. He led the five cities of the military commander.

The officer patrols the streets.”

As soon as these words were spoken, some officials laughed silently.

It is really funny that a dignified prince cannot attend a palace banquet, but has to patrol the streets.

The old prince nodded with satisfaction, "Don't be arrogant or impatient, be loyal to the emperor, and give him this errand."

After half a walk of wine, Shangguan Xu received an imperial edict at the emperor's instructions.

Seeing this, Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but nervously grabbed Yan Mu's arm. What should come was still coming. Changning leaned forward and saw the imperial edict, his eyes were both panic and happy.

Shangguan Xu lowered his head and asked the emperor what he meant. The emperor was about to raise his hand, but subconsciously looked at Yan Mu.

Yan Mu lowered his eyes and his face was cold.

"He is betting whether I dare to resist the order." Yan Mu said.

Liu Yunxiang pursed her lips, "Then do he think you dare?"

"dare."

"That……"

"It's like a wading water. Knowing that the water ahead is getting deeper and deeper, danger is coming, but he just can't help but be restless and want to test it, step by step until he falls into a state of inability to look back. He is such a person,

Even if he breaks up, even if he will cause turmoil in the court, he will definitely issue an imperial edict for the sake of patriarchal power and monarchal power. Moreover, if I cannot absolutely obey him, he will not consider passing the throne to me.

It happened to be a test."

Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but worry about her lower lip, wouldn't the one in front of her be dead? What should I do?

Just as she was worried, Shangguan Xu had already received the emperor's permission and picked up the imperial edict and was about to read it.

At this time, the Xiyue princess who was originally sitting next to the queen stood up, looked at her and Yan Mu, and then said, "Emperor, my brother asked me to marry Darong, but he did not specify to marry me.
