Afterwards, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "Your nephew, the Emperor, is indeed a man who knows the rules and knows how to confer the title of Marquis of Anguo on his aunt!"

The emperor's face suddenly turned bitter.

He quickly said to the Queen Mother: "Oh, mother, you are really crazy, what kind of words are you saying!"

"This child...according to seniority, she should be my son's niece, not... aunt(?.?)"

The Queen Mother laughed: "What niece or not? She is not the daughter of the Bai family. How can she be your niece according to the seniority?"

"Isn't that right, Bai Lu?"

As she spoke, the Queen Mother pulled Bai Lu to sit up and said happily, "I haven't seen you for a long time! Those monsters in the palace and those outside have tortured you so much that you have lost a lot of weight!"

"Thank you for your consideration, Queen Mother. It's okay. Anyway, I won't bother with these monsters."

Bai Lu and the Queen Mother began to chat affectionately.

Seeing how close the two of them were, everyone was a little confused.

They didn't figure out what was going on at this time.

Bai Lu is the Empress Dowager's sister...which means she is the Emperor's aunt.

My God, no wonder the emperor was so intimate to Bai Lu just now.

But something seems a little wrong. The age difference between the emperor and Bai Lu is so big. The emperor is several decades older than Bai Lu, but it turns out to be the aunt...

Tsk tsk tsk, the royal family relations are really messy.

Everyone saw that Bai Lu, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager were all very close, and at this moment they no longer dared to underestimate this wealthy female businessman who came from Lianhua Town in Liangzhou.

They whispered among themselves, “In the past, I thought that this was a wealthy businessman from Lianhua Town in Liangzhou, but he was just doing business and had a low status.”

"It was just luck that I was named a baroness because of my military achievements. Now, I didn't expect... that she is actually someone of high status and background."

"Yes, you must not look down on him just because he is a businessman."

"And did you see that the Bai family, the richest family in the world, is also very close to this Lady Bai Lu?"

Everyone turned to look at Bai Qingze, only to see that Bai Qingze was the only one from the Bai family at this moment, and he was standing next to the prince.

Pei Huizhou was standing on Bai Qingze's left, and the three of them were staring at Bai Lu.

Bai Qingze looked melancholy, the prince looked helpless, and Pei Huizhou looked calm. The three of them had very different expressions, but it seemed... they all seemed to be very familiar with Bai Lu.

The three of them stepped forward and started talking to Bai Lu and the Queen Mother.

Pei Huizhou raised his eyebrows and said to Bai Lu, "His Majesty really loves you. You are here so early. We, the foreign officials, knew that His Majesty would come early, so we did not dare to delay and came here in advance."

"Otherwise, a banquet like this... like the Hanlin Banquet or the Student Banquet, these banquets are usually held at noon, and Your Majesty can only come."

"Now, it's just morning and the emperor is here."

Bai Lu nodded: "I see."

"No wonder they all arrived so early."

"It looks like we can start the feast at noon."

Pei Huizhou said: "I'm still quite hungry."

"Bai Lu, can you give me a piece of that plate of jujube flower crisps next to you?"

Bai Lu gave Pei Huizhou a piece of jujube flower pastry, and stuffed one into the mouths of Murong Jinshu and the Queen Mother respectively.

The young prince and Ximen Liuyun were standing nearby, staring at Bailu. Bailu and the queen mother looked at each other in surprise, and then they both gave each of the young prince and Ximen Liuyun a piece of jujube flower pastry.

A plate of jujube flower crisps was almost gone in an instant.

Bai Qingze said eagerly: "Sister, I want it too."

"Okay, here you go, Third Brother."

Bai Lu also stuffed a jujube flower pastry into Bai Qingze's pocket.

After feeding the animals around, Bai Lu glanced at the prince. It seemed that the prince was the only one left now.

But I don’t dare to feed the prince. It’s a bit like feeding a small pet.

She thought about it and handed the last piece of jujube flower cake on the plate to the prince.

The prince pouted and looked at Bai Lu with a bit of resentment. She didn't feed him and treated him differently.

Then he said with a bit of disinterest: "Forget it, eat it yourself."

"I have something else to do over there, so I'll leave first."

He spoke to the emperor for a while, and then the banquet began, with sumptuous dishes being served one after another.

The emperor said to everyone with great joy: "Today is the auspicious day for Bai Lu to confer the title of Lady, and it is also a celebration banquet for our great warriors who have returned triumphantly."

"We didn't have a good meal at the previous celebration banquet, but now we can have a good meal."

"Someone, bring the roasted whole lamb that we prepared in advance."

Below, Eunuch Zhang immediately went to carry up a whole roasted lamb.

The roasted whole lamb was very large and had prominent horns, which were even preserved.

As soon as the roasted whole lamb was served, the whole table was filled with tempting aroma.

Everyone stared at the big red flower on the head of the roasted whole lamb and felt it was very festive.

The emperor was very happy to see such a large whole roasted lamb coming up.

He nodded with a smile and said, "This roasted whole lamb is very good, and it has a good meaning as well."

"Come, come, come, today's lamb leg will be cut by me personally for our White Lady!"

"Marquis Anguo is truly a heroine."

As he said this, the emperor went to cut a leg of lamb for Bai Lu.

After cutting the lamb leg, put it into Bai Lu’s bowl.

The emperor was smiling and was about to say something when he suddenly heard a harsh voice from outside: "Your Majesty, Lord Bai Yansong of the Bai family has come with his wife, daughter, concubines and relatives to congratulate you."

Hearing this, everyone was stunned and turned their heads to look!

I saw Lord Bai bringing Mrs. Xie, Princess Ruyu, and another woman over.

The simply dressed woman on his right looked exactly like the young Zhao Bingyu.

Many people in Kyoto have seen Zhao Bingyu. When they saw that woman, they were so scared that they almost overturned the wine glasses in their hands and screamed: "This... Isn't this a resurrection of the dead?! Why is Zhao Bingyu, the wife of the Zhao family, here?!"

"And she actually gets along well with that Xie next to her?!"

Everyone just saw Zhao Bingyu step forward and respectfully support Xie, looking very servile.

Lord Bai walked up to the emperor and Bai Lu with a smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, Marquis Anguo, I am late."

After hearing his words, the emperor felt unwell.

The emperor pointed at Mr. Bai and said tremblingly: "...Who is the woman next to you?"
