After raising a cub, the prince's wife became famous all over the world

"Your Majesty, do you have any objection if I don't go?" Qin Chaoyan asked.

Wei Chu pinched his brows, feeling a little helpless.

This emperor has become less and less reserved in his temper over the years, and is even showing a tendency to become more and more unrestrained.

He said, "Your Majesty, he might be a little disappointed, but it's nothing."

"disappointment?"

"Yes, I am disappointed that he cannot use your identity to show off in front of envoys from various countries and let them go back and pass on the message to their rulers."

Qin Chaoyan couldn't help but chuckle and punched Wei Chu's chest.

She said angrily: "You are talking nonsense. How can the emperor be the kind of person you are talking about?"

Wei Chu raised his hand and swore, "I swear to heaven that our emperor is really such a person. Every word he said is true and absolutely true."

"Aqiu, Aqiu!" Emperor Qi sneezed twice in the Xuan Zheng Hall, and Eunuch Hong hurriedly served him hot tea.

"Your Majesty, drink some hot tea to warm yourself up. You should take a rest. Your health is important. Don't overwork yourself."

Emperor Qi waved his hands and said, "I am fine. I am very strong."

He continued to review the memorials on the desk, and as if he had thought of something, he asked, "Has Wei Chu left Biluoxuan? Has he come to deliver the letter to me?"

"Your Majesty, Lord Wei has not left Biluoxuan yet."

Emperor Qi snorted and said, "I asked this kid to deliver the invitations, not to have a love affair with me."

He shook his head. "Forget it, forget it. I hope he can convince the goddess to come to the banquet. Otherwise, I will definitely deduct his salary for January and March."

Eunuch Hong stood behind and to the right of Emperor Qi, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, quietly and without saying a word.

In the Biluo Pavilion, Qin Chaoyan was amused for a long time by Wei Chu's description of Emperor Qi's character.

She glanced at the invitation again and said, "Then you can talk to His Majesty about how I can cooperate with him when I attend the banquet tonight."

"You are willing to attend the banquet, and His Majesty is almost crazy with joy. You even asked me to cooperate. I am afraid that he will faint from all the anger."

"You, you," Qin Chaoyan said, "This is only in Biluoxuan. If it were somewhere else, you couldn't say these words, otherwise..."

Wei Chu grabbed her hand and said, "Don't worry, I know. Do you really intend to cooperate with His Majesty?"

"Really?" Qin Chaoyan said, "The emperor is very nice. After I came to Daqi, he took good care of me."

"He supports me in everything I do. To return the favor, I will cooperate with him tonight. This is the first time he has invited me to a dinner so seriously, so I can't refuse."

In the Xuan Zheng Hall, when Emperor Qi heard the news brought back by Wei Chu, he was so excited that he almost overturned the table in front of him.

"What did you say!"

"Really? Did I hear it right?!"

Emperor Qi looked at Wei Chu, then turned back to look at Eunuch Hong.

"Hong Zhao, did you hear anything just now?" he said, "I'm afraid I'm dizzy from reading the memorials, and I'm experiencing visual and auditory hallucinations."

The corners of Eunuch Hong's mouth twitched, but he was also very excited.

He took two steps forward, clenched his hands tightly, and replied to Emperor Qi.

"Your Majesty, it is true. I heard it with both of my ears."

"Lord Wei said that the goddess will come to the banquet tonight, and asked if she needs to cooperate with you, Your Majesty!"

Wei Chu, who was kneeling below to answer, twitched his face. Looking at the excited Emperor Qi and Eunuch Hong, he quickly lowered his head.

He said that Chao Chao just didn't believe him, and that Emperor Qi looked like a wise ruler who was very majestic and acted very rigorously.

Emperor Qi and Eunuch Hong were still excited for a while. When the blood rushing to their heads slowly subsided, they turned around and saw Wei Chu still kneeling.

Emperor Qi hurriedly said: "You kid, why are you still kneeling? Quick, Hong Zhao, give Huaiyu a seat!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Hong hurriedly moved a stool for Wei Chu, "Master Wei, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Eunuch Hong."

Emperor Qi paced back and forth excitedly, and he thought for a while.

"The goddess is already giving me great honor by coming to the banquet."

"No need for anything, Huaiyu, you can help me and the goddess convey it later."

"Even though the goddess was only here for a short while and did nothing, I am extremely grateful to her for taking the time to attend."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Okay, go ahead. Wait a minute," Emperor Qi called Wei Chu again and looked at Eunuch Hong. He said, "Hong Zhao, take Huaiyu to my private storehouse and pick out a thank-you gift for the goddess."

"Choose carefully, pick some good ones."

When Wei Chu and Eunuch Hong appeared in Biluoxuan with the thank-you gifts, Qin Chaoyan suddenly believed what Wei Chu had just said.

Amid Emperor Qi's extremely excited anticipation and everyone's intensive preparations, the evening banquet to welcome the envoys arrived.

According to what Eunuch Hong and Wei Chu relayed when they went to Biluoxuan together, Qin Chaoyan did not attend the banquet on time, but planned to "astonish the audience" at a certain time.

So, she set off slowly only after Wei Zhao and others were taken to the palace for a banquet by carriage.

At the banquet, the envoys paid their respects to Emperor Qi and presented him with gifts. This part went smoothly without any trouble from Beisha and Dongli.

Emperor Qi gave a signal with his eyes, and Eunuch Hong declared: "Let's feast!"

Immediately, singing and dancing began and delicious food was served.

In the past, palace banquets and other parties were very boring. Everyone watched singing and dancing, ate imperial meals, flattered each other, and struggled to get through the banquet.

But now it is different. Most of the students in Yingtian Academy come from powerful families. I don't know when it started, but when they attend banquets, they always gather together.

In addition, the elders of the students also gathered together, and the ladies were chatting about their children's recent studies and the new things in the grocery store.

The officials occasionally chatted about the children's studies, and recently the most talked about topics were the craft workshops and grocery stores.

Prince Rong, Prime Minister Pei, the Minister of Works and the Minister of Revenue were the most powerful people in the court and the capital during this period.

What everyone wants is for their children or retainers in the mansion to be able to work in the workshop.

In response, Prince Rong and his companions refused to accept any gifts and never accepted anyone's flattery.

This workshop, as Qin Chaoyan said, only recruits talented people.

Amid the singing, dancing and conversation, the Nahu envoy from Beisha suddenly stood up and saluted Emperor Qi.

"Your Majesty, we are here for a meeting in five days and also for a matter that we would like to ask Your Majesty for your approval."

"Oh, when?"

The singing and dancing stopped, and the conversations also stopped. The courtiers, the ladies, and almost everyone present were listening with their ears perked up.

They wanted to hear what the envoy from Beisha was talking about.

"Your Majesty, our Princess Manli is also on the diplomatic mission this time because our Lord is concerned about the princess' marriage and wants to choose a good match for her in Great Qi."

Jialuo Manli walked into the main hall and performed the Beisha greeting ceremony to Emperor Qi.
