Nangong Jie snorted coldly: "Stop pretending, the maids are calling you Madam, right? You don't need to pretend, it will happen sooner or later."

"You, you, you..." Duoduo finally couldn't pretend anymore, because she was indeed very happy. She grabbed Nangong Jie's ears and said with a smile: "Do you have to go against me every time?"

As the most important metropolis in the Southern Dynasty, whenever night falls, another kind of prosperity will always emerge in the streets and alleys of the capital. In particular, Yihongyuan and major restaurants are booming in business and full of customers.

However, Nangong Jie and Duoduo passed by many gourmet restaurants without stopping at all, because they had to rush into the palace to celebrate the emperor's birthday.

For the two of them, tonight is indeed an unusual day. In addition to congratulating the emperor on his birthday, they also want to ask for the word "marriage" from the emperor so that they can get along better day and night in the future and be able to spend the night together.

And sleep.

Waiting is an extremely painful thing. Nangong Jie originally wanted to wait until the beginning of the banquet to propose marriage to his father, but unfortunately there were so many officials who came to celebrate his birthday that each person had to say a few blessings.

For most of the day, I didn't dare to disturb him casually.

Then the two of them had to wait. Anyway, Duoduo didn't care about such a short time, and Duoduo was in a good mood tonight. He also attended the large banquet with Nangong Jie, but today was different from last time. Last time, Duoduo always thought that he was in love with Nangong Jie.

of light.

And this time, who dares to call her a bitch?

"Oh, fifth prince, you are here. We have been looking for you. Come, come, come, let's toast the fifth prince and congratulate him on winning the championship in the competition!"

Those buddies of the princes and grandsons are all quick-witted guys. They originally identified Nangong Ao as the future young master of the Southern Dynasty, but today after seeing Nangong Jie's brave and witty side, they all fell in love with Nangong Ao.

Jie's side.

Nangong Jie raised his cup and said, "Thank you all for giving me face, but today's championship comes with a lot of luck. In terms of strength, many of you are better than me."

"Hey, fifth prince, don't be humble. You won the competition with your true ability. Everyone can see it. You deserve it!"

Duoduo's popularity seems to be even higher than Nangong Jie's. Everyone smiles and nods to say hello when they see him, and Duoduo also politely gives everyone a sweet smile in return.

There was only one person who didn't know how to praise her, and that was the princess of Huayue Kingdom. Because she was slapped to the ground by Nangong Jie for many things in Prince Jie's Mansion last time, so she still holds a grudge.

Seeing that Duoduo was dressed up like a smart traveler tonight and full of charm, the guy deliberately took a cup of hot tea and walked over to congratulate him: "Oh my, my, it turns out to be the steward Qian. Who is he dressed so beautifully?

It really flew up the branches and turned into a phoenix."

As he was talking, the guy accidentally twisted his foot, and the tea in the cup suddenly poured towards Duoduo.

But this time the bitch didn't succeed. A serving tray suddenly stopped in front of Duoduo, completely blocking the cup of hot tea, which made the bitch scream.

It wasn't Duoduo who blocked it by himself, but the princess of Snow Country "rescued" him in time.

"Hmph, it's none of your business, you're meddling in other people's business!" the bitch from Huayue Kingdom snorted coldly.

"What are you talking about? From now on, Duoduo will be our good sister. How dare you play tricks on our good sister? Sister, come on!"

How could the five or six princes and concubines from different vassals miss this opportunity to flatter Duoduo? They swarmed up and knocked the bitch of Huayue Kingdom to the ground, ravaging her for a while.

The imperial garden was so busy that the men did not notice that the group of women were enforcing the "family law". Instead, Duoduo was afraid of the negative impact, so he stopped him and said: "Forget it, stop it. Today is the emperor's birthday. Originally,

We need to grant amnesty to the world and stop fighting, stop fighting."

Seeing that the group of women still refused to give up, Duoduo had no choice but to go over and break up the fight. While saying stop, he secretly took action.

"Help..." The bitch from Huayue Kingdom finally couldn't help shouting.

Hua Cai heard his woman's cry for help and ran over, angrily saying: "Stop, what are you doing?"

The women then dispersed and looked at the furious Prince of the Flower Moon Kingdom, with some panic on their faces.

Duoduo helped the bitch up and said, "Prince Hua, you really can't take care of your own woman. Look, she accidentally fell down and she fell like this."

"Prince...wuwu..." The bitch threw herself into Huacai's arms and beat Huacai's shoulders relentlessly, insisting that Huacai seek justice for her.

Na Huacai said angrily: "Falled? So hard that your face was swollen? Even your clothes were torn. Hum, I will definitely report it to Emperor Nangong and punish you women!"

"Who is making the noise here?" As an extremely arrogant voice came, a woman wearing golden cicada silk and an emerald phoenix on her head came over, accompanied by a group of palace maids. The formation was large enough to show that

This woman's status and weight in the harem.

"Concubine Yan, everything is ready." A palace maid ran over to report.

"I know, let's go."

Concubine Yan? Duoduo has heard of this woman for a long time. Although there has been no queen in the harem, Concubine Yan has regarded herself as a queen. She is domineering and domineering in everything. If others complain even slightly, they will be destroyed.

She is Nangong Ao's biological mother, Situ Yan.

"My Huacai is the prince of Huayue Kingdom. Just now these women knocked my beloved concubine to the ground and beat her severely. You see, she was beaten like this. I was about to ask the emperor to make the decision."

"What? Looking for the emperor to make the decision?" Concubine Yan felt disgusted when she heard the words "Huayue Kingdom", especially the bitch princess. After her clothes were torn, a lip mark was exposed on her white buttocks, like this

In her eyes, a woman is just a coquettish fox.

"Yes, my dear, I must seek help from the emperor to seek justice. Although our Huayue Kingdom is not big, it is not so easy to bully."

Concubine Yan rolled her eyes at the talented man and said, "What's wrong with bullying? You're serious. All the affairs between women in this harem are under my control. It's useless to go to the emperor."

"That……"

Hua Cai was about to speak, but she was interrupted by Concubine Yan: "Don't be stupid, it's just a little skin injury, what does it matter? Just ask the imperial doctor to get some trauma medicine and apply it on it, don't make a fuss.

"

After Concubine Yan finished speaking, she looked at the bitch prince and concubine with disgust, and went to greet the guests with her maids.

They say they are greeting guests, but in fact they are taking the opportunity to plunder red envelopes and enrich their own pockets.

When Nangong Jie saw Duoduo mingling with a group of women, he thought he was being bullied again, so he walked over quickly and said, "What's wrong? Who bullied my housekeeper again, huh?"

"She!" Many women pointed their fingers at the woman from the Flower Moon Kingdom at the same time.

Nangong Jie got angry and said, "Why did you hit me so hard last time? Don't you still have a memory?"

There is a saying that you don't look at the monk's face to look at the Buddha's face. When beating a dog, you need to ask the owner. Nangong Jie humiliated his woman in front of the flower talent. He was so angry that the talent's face turned pale and he grabbed his woman's arm.

Hand said: "Go on, you idiot, you know how to cause trouble for me!"

The woman couldn't tell that Hua Cai was actually expressing her dissatisfaction to Nangong Jie, and thought he was scolding her, so she started sobbing in frustration.

"Haha, it's better now. That woman really doesn't know where the world is and she always opposes us. Let's show her how powerful she is next time, huh!"

One by two, the women came over to get close to each other, and most of them felt a little embarrassed. They whispered: "Why are you standing there, you idiot? Go to your father's side and help greet the guests. Whenever you have a chance, say

It’s our business.”

"Oh, I got it, I'll go right away."

Nangong Ming sat high on the high platform, receiving blessings from civil and military officials and princes of various vassals with a very high attitude, and he also kept giving rewards.

Some famous folk operas and raps have been performed on the stage. It is rare for everyone to have such a relaxing moment, and they are all fascinated to watch.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, and may all your wishes come true and may you live a long life."

"I wish your Majesty that you will have this day every year and that you will have this day every year."

...There were too many, and they were all roughly the same, so Nangong Ming got bored to death and actually yawned.

"Dang...dang...dang..." A clear bell suddenly rang in the imperial garden, and the eunuch beside the emperor shouted loudly: "The auspicious time for your birthday has arrived. Please thank your ancestors for your kindness."

"Long live my king, long live him..." Everyone knelt down and worshiped you.

Nangong Ming, on the other hand, lit a handful of incense sticks by himself, walked up to the makeshift god, and bowed vigorously while watching the ranking of the ancestors.

"My ancestors and ancestors, thanks to the protection of our ancestors and ancestors, eleven of our thirteen northern and southern kingdoms have now been repaired, and the unification plan is just around the corner. I hope that our ancestors and ancestors will continue to bless the descendants of Southern China, and everything will go smoothly. Nangong Ming is very grateful.

All!"

After offering incense to his ancestors, Nangong Ming turned around and said: "Everyone, I have been conquering the south and north for so many years, not for plundering and plundering, but for the common cause of the future. Come, take advantage of my birthday banquet to toast you all.

I hope you can all work together to accomplish great things in the future!”

"Your Majesty, please!"

Everyone raised their wine glasses and raised them high above their heads, waiting for Nangong Ming to finish the wine and then drink the rice wine in the cup!

At this time, the eunuch beside the emperor loudly announced: "Let's have a banquet!"

Seeing that the opportunity was rare, Nangong Jie stepped forward and said, "Father, I have something to ask for."

"Huh?" The mighty Nangong Ming waved his hand and said: "Tonight we will just drink and celebrate, don't talk about other things. Sister rb will come to my imperial study room tomorrow."

"Yes, Father."

Nangong Jie had to swallow what was on his lips. At this time, all civil and military officials came to propose a toast, and Nangong Jie had no choice but to return to Duoduo.

Duoduo was having a great time eating. In the past, when watching TV and watching movies, I always heard about things like Manchu Banquet, Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, Fire Cloud Eggs, etc. At that time, I became greedy when I heard about it. I wish I could eat the secret recipe of the palace.

The dishes, not to mention how delicious they are.

And now what was placed in front of her was something like that. She couldn't name any of the dishes, but they were extremely delicious, especially a large river fish that was half a man long and took up one third of the entire table.

The body of the big river fish has been fried to a golden color, and even the sauce on it is also golden yellow. It is accompanied by green onions, garlic and white, and is full of fragrance. I pick a piece of fish with chopsticks, dip it in the sauce and stuff it into my mouth. It tastes sour.

Sweet, fluffy and chewy, you will feel so happy that you want to cry when you eat it.

Maybe it was related to his mood. Duoduo had a big appetite. When he saw Nangong Jie coming over, his face looked a little depressed, so he asked: "What's wrong?"

Nangong Jie said: "My father told me to come to his study room tomorrow."

Duoduo smiled and said: "Hey, looking at your kindness, I thought something had happened. Come on, let's enjoy it while the naughty little boy is not here."
