I became a mermaid egg and saved the Imperial Marshal

The main hall of the palace is located in the Lingxing Star, and it takes about an hour and a half to get there from the Secondary Star.

The emperor held this banquet nominally to commend the various forces for their joint fight against the alien beasts, but in reality it was to restore the prestige of the royal family.

Because of the previous incident with Sirius, the reputation of the royal family was severely damaged, and there were more and more voices of doubt and resistance against the royal family on the Star Network.

As a last resort, Si Yue could only consolidate the imperial power in this way.

When Jun Yan, Li Jia and Qi Yan arrived at the scene, they instantly attracted everyone's attention and caused quite a stir.

Everyone was talking about it. Since Jun Yan rarely appeared in public on such occasions, and Li Jia had been silent for a hundred years, many people were guessing about their identities.

In addition, Qi Yan and Li Jia are both so good-looking that the three of them standing together are like a beautiful landscape.

Some people who recognized Jun Yan or Li Jia's identities came over to say hello with smiles on their faces.

Soon, they were surrounded by people.

Jun Yan and Li Jia generously introduced Qi Yan's identity to everyone, which immediately attracted countless exclamations.

Especially after knowing that Qi Yan was Li Jia's child, everyone looked at Qi Yan with curiosity.

After all, Li Jia's mermaid genes are the highest so far, and he is the only person who has grown a fish tail, so his children will naturally attract attention.

Compared to the first time she appeared in front of the public as a little mermaid, Qi Yan was able to handle this situation calmly this time.

His good upbringing and outstanding appearance have earned him a lot of praise.

Just as they were talking happily, Si Yue came out with Queen Orina.

The crowd that was originally bustling and talking to each other suddenly became quiet.

Si Yue said a few words symbolically, and then walked towards Qi Yan and the other two.

"Mr. Jun and Prince Lijia have come from afar, and I am very happy. Is this your son? He really has the demeanor of Prince Lijia."

At Jun Yan's suggestion, Qi Yan greeted him politely.

Then, Jun Yan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I have been under the protection of the two of us since I was young. I have little contact with the outside world and my mind is simple. Please forgive me if I am impolite."

After a few words back and forth, Si Yue finally got to the point: "Mr. Jun left in a hurry last time, and I was unable to meet him. I am very sorry. Please make sure to have a drink with me today."

"It would be disrespectful to refuse. Your Majesty, please."

Jun Yan and Li Jia looked at each other, then left with Si Yue.

Qi Yan looked at Li Jia, questioning with his eyes. Li Jia patted his shoulder soothingly and said, "Let's go. Your father can handle it. Let's go and rest for a while."

They walked to a terrace and just as they sat down, Olena came over with a woman.

When he saw the woman, Li Jia's face darkened. Before Qi Yan could ask, the two of them had already approached.

The strange woman spoke first: "Last time, my brother left in a huff, which made me very worried."

"Today I learned that you, my brother, are here too. The Queen is also here. I apologize to you for what happened that day. Please don't be angry with me again."

The woman exuded a seductive aura. Although she said she was sorry, her expression did not show any sign of apology at all.

Qi Yan knew her identity from her self-proclaimed name. This woman should be the current queen of the Orcs, and Kanster's stepmother.

The person who came was not friendly. Li Jia narrowed his eyes and retorted without any courtesy: "Who do you think you are? How dare you call yourself my sister-in-law."

The woman was not annoyed when she heard this, but smiled coquettishly: "My brother, you have always misunderstood me. I am only doing this for your own good."

Then she looked at Qi Yan in surprise and joy: "Oh, this must be my nephew whom I have never met before. Come here and let your aunt have a good look at him."

Qi Yan was unmoved. It was obvious from Li Jia's attitude that the two of them were not on good terms. How could he give her face?

Then he said, "I don't know you."

Li Jia had lost his patience at this time and looked directly at Olena: "The Queen brought this little cat and dog here to cause trouble. Does His Majesty know? Or is the royal family really bullying our Orcs?"

Olena's eyes flashed. Liga didn't get angry but just put a big hat on her, which made her immediately realize how difficult the other party was and she had to change her strategy.

"Prince Lijia has misunderstood. I have heard that the Orcs have a unique fragrance. I happened to hear Princess Mu mention that this fragrance was made by the prince, so I came here to ask for your advice."

Li Jia naturally wouldn't believe her lies, but he was also very curious about what the other party was trying to do.

At this moment, Mu Shan laughed with her hands covering her mouth: "My brother has been living in the valley for many years to recuperate. I'm afraid his cooking skills have become rusty. Your Majesty, please don't be disappointed."

Li Jia smiled coldly and pretended to be angry: "It's not your turn to say whether I'm disappointed or not. Since the Queen has come to invite me, why not go there?"

Then, he told Qi Yan, "Daddy will be back soon. You stay here and don't run around. If you have any problems, send a message to Daddy."

"Yeah." Qi Yan nodded.

Before leaving, Mu Shan deliberately looked at Qi Yan and smiled sweetly with an ambiguous tone.

Qi Yan frowned, feeling that this woman was not simple and very annoying.

As soon as Li Jia and his companions left, Si Mingyu came.

When Qi Yan saw Si Mingyu, her mood was instantly ruined.

However, Si Mingyu obviously didn't see his annoyance, and he sat opposite Qi Yan in a self-righteous manner: "The palace is so lively today, why is the beauty here alone, looking at her own shadow?"

At this moment, Qi Yan deeply realized that there are indeed differences between people.

Although both of them behave frivolously and flirtatiously, Shen Yi makes people feel pleasing to the eye, while Si Mingyu only makes people feel disgusted.

Qi Yan didn't even want to say anything, but she couldn't help but know how to read Si Mingyu's expression.

"It's been a while since we last met. Xiaoyan is still as cute as ever. The weather is great today. Why don't you let me take you for a walk?"

"He's not going anywhere." Before Qi Yan could refuse, Kanster came over and directly expressed his attitude on Qi Yan's behalf.

Si Mingyu's face darkened, and he narrowed his eyes and looked gloomily at Kanster who was sitting next to Qi Yan.

Kanster looked back without giving in, and where their eyes met, flames flew.

As the saying goes, rivals in love become jealous of each other when they meet.

It’s a pity that Lan Xi is not here at the moment, Qi Yan thought.

Si Mingyu smiled coldly: "This is a matter between Xiaoyan and me, you have no right to interfere!"

"I have heard that the orc prince has been obsessed with Lanxi, a student in the Department of Alchemy. Lanxi has also been invited to the banquet today. Why don't I do him a favor and help him achieve his goal?"

"I'm afraid the Crown Prince has misunderstood. I'm not familiar with Lanxi." Kanster said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yan looked at him in surprise.

Without waiting for Si Mingyu to continue pestering him, Kanster continued, "My brother and I have some family matters to discuss. I'm afraid it would be inconvenient for the Crown Prince to be here. Please!"

Si Mingyu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He didn't expect that Kanster would refuse his toast and drink a forfeit. Seeing that the plan was difficult to implement, he snorted coldly and finally walked away.
