At the beginning of the lanterns, the high-hanging palace lanterns set off the magnificent and luxurious palace, shining brighter than pearls.
Cars and horses were driving towards the palace gate one after another. Princes, ministers, young ladies, all dressed up, came to congratulate the most noble emperor of the Beiming Kingdom on his birthday.
The night pearl illuminated the main hall brilliantly, there was singing and dancing, fine wine, delicacies, and rare fruits. The princesses and ladies came forward one after another to perform, creating an extremely luxurious scene.
Ling Xiaoran was dressed in a bright yellow royal robe, sitting on the main seat, with a majestic and calm expression that was difficult to understand. The domineering power around her was increasing day by day. Her thin lips were slightly pursed, and her eyes were as sharp as an eagle's eye. She was holding a glass of wine in her hand, and she couldn't see.
Out of joy.
The surrounding concubines were blooming with flowers. From time to time they glanced at the emperor whom they admired and admired, but they did not dare to look more. They were all afraid of the emperor's eyes.[
"Her Royal Highness the Queen of Xiyue has arrived."
"Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess of Tianshui has arrived."
The guard outside the hall shouted, and the hall suddenly became quiet. The female actors stepped aside one after another, bending down slightly and lowering their heads.
Several extremely elegant men and women entered the palace, and undoubtedly easily stunned the eyes of everyone present. The elegance of the two women walking in front was unparalleled, and their demeanor and aura were not inferior to anyone present.
.
This is the Queen of Xiyue and the Seventh Princess of Tianshui who repelled the army of East Lin Beiming, making the envoys and ministers of East Lin Beiming present both angry and ashamed.
"I have met Emperor Beiming and wish Emperor Beiming a happy birthday."
As soon as the words fell, the maids of Xiyue Tianshui opened the gift boxes in their hands. The gift boxes were filled with rare treasures.
Su Ziyan and Yi Shuihan stood in the center of the hall, looking directly at Ling Xiaoran with smiles on their faces. One of them said something like this. They were graceful, polite and proud, polite and strong.
Ling Xiaoran narrowed her eyes slightly and looked directly at the two people in the center of the hall, but said nothing.
Seeing this, the ministers of Beiming frowned. Princess Xiyue and Princess Tianshui were too arrogant. They only said a congratulatory message such as "Happy Birthday", which was clearly disrespectful to the emperor; they are not monarchs and should be treated as such.
They saluted, but not only did they not salute, they also acted like they were self-centered, which was clearly a sign of contempt for Bei Ming.
For a moment, the scene was deadlocked. Only Yi Shuihan and the others kept smiling. Beiming, please show your face. We, Tianshui, are a country of etiquette, so we accept it happily.
Finally, the Minister of Rites said solemnly: "May I ask the Queen of Xiyue and the Seventh Princess of Tianshui, what do you mean by this? If you don't bow to the emperor when you meet the emperor of our country, why does Xiyue Tianshui not understand etiquette so much?"
Su Ziyan glanced at the Minister of Rites, and the momentum of the Minister of Rites was suddenly gone. He immediately closed his mouth tightly, and the oppressive feeling made people feel cold.
"His Royal Highness is here on behalf of Her Majesty Queen Xiyue."
The implication is that you want Queen Xiyue to salute you, Emperor Beiming?
"Princess Xiyue, you're very polite, the Seventh Princess of Tianshui, please take a seat." Ling Xiaoran's calm but majestic voice spread throughout the hall, preventing anyone from peeking into his happiness and anger.
"Thank you, Emperor Beiming."
After Su Ziyan and Yi Shuihan took their seats, the music started playing again, and the female actors filed in and started dancing.
More than half a year has passed, and the Beiming court has undergone a major change under Ling Xiaoran's rule, but there are still many old people.[
The moment Yi Shuihan sat down, these old people looked at the Seventh Princess of Tianshui and thought they looked so familiar.
Especially those at the end of the Hanlin Academy, whose jaws dropped in shock, opened their necks, and wiped their eyes again and again. They could not see clearly because they were too far away.
