The palace banquet took place in the evening. After lunch, everyone took a short break. Guoguo prepared Lingquan porridge for the family, and they all ate some. Washing up took two hours, and Guoguo dressed Grandpa, Grandma, and Great-Grandpa to look handsome and dignified! The room was filled with laughter as they watched them get dressed. Wang Wang said, "Grandpa isn't as elegant as Great-Grandpa!" Guoguo glared at him and said, "Grandpa is handsome too!" She held her chest high and put one hand behind her back. Guoguo demonstrated for Grandpa and handed him a fan. Chai Ping'an had seen Guoguo on TV and imitated her movements, almost mastering them in no time. Guoguo said, "Grandpa, just like this. You can also support Grandma with one hand." "How about Grandma holding Grandpa's arm and try it?" Li Hongying took Chai Ping'an's arm. Guoguo said, "Okay, that's it." Guoguo also dressed up, wearing the princess's dress and phoenix crown. The five of them were ready. Guoguo looked at Chai Ping'an and took out a red agate headband and put it on him. "That's right, Grandpa, look in the mirror!" Li Hongying looked at Ping'an, and instantly saw a change. Guoguo: A true son of an aristocratic family. Chai Ping'an looked at himself in the mirror and didn't recognize himself. "It's true, clothes make the man. A big change." Chai Zhen, with his hair tied up in a jade official bun and a black mink coat, looked incredibly handsome. Xia Hua watched, fearing someone would snatch the master away. She stepped forward and brushed Chai Zhen's clothes. Chai Zhen looked down at Xia Hua and smiled, "Wait for me at home." Xia Hua: Yes. Her face flushed. Chai Zhen helped her sit next to his daughter.

The guards outside came to announce, "Master, the prince is waiting outside to take everyone to the palace." As the guards finished speaking, Ye Heng walked in, picked up his son and pulled Guoguo along, saying, "It's time to go." Chai Zhen was in front, Li Hongying and Chai Ping'an were behind, and Ye Heng looked at the fourth child, "Dad, you should go too. Take care of grandpa and grandma in the palace." The fourth child: "Okay." Li Ru hurriedly helped the fourth child change into new clothes, tied his hair, and put on new boots. Ye Heng: "Okay, let's go." When they reached the door, "Qinqishuhua, follow." "Yes, Prince." Ye Heng: "Protect the master." The four beauties: "Yes, Prince."

Several people boarded the Yeheng Palace carriage and drove to the palace. In the carriage, Yeheng said, "Dad, keep an eye on Grandpa and Great-Grandpa. Don't get lost wandering around. There are a lot of people here today. I'll also arrange for someone to follow you. Grandma, Guoguo, and Huangbao, the three of you, don't separate." Li Hongying said, "Okay, Grandma, I'll remember that." Yeheng said, "I'll try my best to stay with you, but I'm just afraid I'll leave if something happens."

Outside the carriage, a team of sword-wielding guards, all mounted on tall horses, followed. Secret guards also accompanied them. Guoguo sat down to rest with her eyes closed, but she was secretly using her spiritual sense to scan the surroundings. She communicated with Xiao Shunzi, "Check the surroundings." Xiao Shunzi scanned with his laser eyes. "Master, nothing is happening around here!" "Please pay attention outside tonight." "Yes, Master."

The carriage arrived at the palace gate smoothly with a clatter. Xiao Mazi, the chief eunuch, was already there to greet Ye Heng. He saw the palace carriage from a distance. Xiao Mazi walked up to it and saluted, saying, "The prince has sent me to pick him up. The carriage is going directly to the imperial study." Ye Heng said, "Okay, I'll lead the way." Xiao Mazi hurried ahead. Many carriages were already waiting outside the palace gate. The palace gate had not yet been opened. Xiao Mazi led the way and the guards gave way. The carriage moved forward. Someone outside the carriage said, "This is the regent's carriage. It went directly to the palace. Who else can have such treatment!" "Speak less. This is not something you can say." "Miss, you have to behave well. I heard that they are choosing a queen!" "I know. Why do you have to say anything?"

Guoguo lifted the curtain and looked outside the palace gate. Many people were waiting outside. Guoguo lowered the curtain and said to Ye Heng, "Brother Ye, place these electronic eyes everywhere." Guoguo handed the things to Ye Heng, who handed them to the secret guard and said, "Put them everywhere in the banquet." "Yes, master." The secret guard took the things and flew away.

In the imperial study, the emperor, the emperor emeritus, and Lu Xi were sitting on chairs, and tea was ready. Lu Xi heard the sound of a carriage and hurried out. When she walked down the steps, she saw Ye Heng got off the carriage first and said, "Heng'er, are you all here?" Ye Heng: "Sister-in-law, they are here." Lu Xi walked up to the carriage, looked at it, saw Chai Zhen, and said, "Hello, godfather, your daughter is here to pick you up!" She reached out her hand to help Chai Zhen get off the carriage. Chai Zhen: "Okay, okay." Lu Xi knew that Chai Zhen looked young but was actually old. Ye Heng also helped Chai Zhen get off the carriage, followed by Chai Ping'an. Lu Xi: "Hello, brother Ping'an." Lu Xi also helped Chai Ping'an get off the carriage. Chai Ping'an: "I haven't seen you for a long time. "Lu Xi: "Yes, I miss you very much," Lu Xi said with tears in her eyes, and Mrs. Li followed out. Lu Xi stretched out her hand to support Mrs. Li and said, "Hello, sister-in-law, I'm here to pick you up." Mrs. Li said, "I'm very happy to see you again." Lu Xi: "Yeah, I'm very happy too." Then Guoguo lifted the curtain and showed her head, smiling and said, "Mom!" Lu Xi: "Hey, hello Guoguo." The little ball showed his head, "Hello, Grandmother!" Lu Xi said with a smile, "Hello, Huangbao," Ye Heng picked up Guoguo, and Lu Xi held Huangbao. At this time, the emperor came outside to greet the Chai family. Xiaodong shouted, "Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandma, come into the hall quickly, Xiaodong has prepared tea for you." Mrs. Li looked at Xiaodong with tears in her eyes and said, "Xiaodong is okay!" "Grandma, Xiaodong is okay." After that, she stepped forward to support Mrs. Li. "Let's go in and talk." The retired emperor was still young. He helped Chai Zhen up and said, "Old brother, you are in good health. We haven't seen each other for a long time!" Chai Zhen: "Retired emperor, all right." The retired emperor: "Okay, you are in very good health. Thanks to you, brother, I can enjoy it! Go in and sit down and talk." Everyone went in and sat down. Xiao Mazi poured tea for everyone and retreated. Thinking that the Chai family had great reputation, this family was not an ordinary family. Looking at the entire Great Yan Kingdom, they were one of the best.

A moment later, Duke Lu arrived, and Ye Heng welcomed him in. Duke Huo spoke, and Ye Heng welcomed him in. A moment later, someone announced that the old Prime Minister had arrived, and Ye Heng ushered him in. Ye Heng personally served tea to everyone.

Duke Huo said, "There is no fighting on the front line this year. Can the emperor let Aying come back?" The emperor thought for a while and said, "Old Duke Huo, yes, I will issue an order to let General Ma come back to rest for a while." Duke Huo said, "Okay, okay, your majesty. Thank you." Xiaodong immediately wrote an imperial edict and sent someone to deliver it to the front line at full speed.

Seeing the emperor's decisiveness, Duke Huo nodded inwardly with a smile in his eyes.

Duke Lu: Old Man Huo, hurry up and get the family ready to welcome your daughter and son-in-law. Duke Huo: Yes, I haven't seen you in over ten years. The Emperor said, "Your son isn't little anymore!" Guoguo: "He's about the same age as me, just a few months older." Duke Huo: "Guoguo, that boy is over a year older than you. He plays like crazy every day." The Emperor: "He's only eighteen or nineteen, not too old. Go ahead and have some fun." His son is already in his twenties and still doesn't have a woman.

A few people chatted and laughed. Ye Heng looked at the sky and said, "It's time for us to go out." The emperor said: "Let's go." He took the lead and walked out. The banquet was at Yongfu Palace. Everyone got up and went together.

The eunuch shouted, "The Emperor has arrived, the Empress Dowager has arrived, the Emperor has arrived, and the Regent has arrived!" Everyone in the hall knelt and saluted, and a dead silence fell. In the center of the hall sat three people: the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, and the Emperor.

On the left, first on the left, are the Regent, followed by several dukes. On the right, first on the right, are the Prime Ministers, followed by the six ministers. The lower the rank, the more externally placed. Today, everyone brought their families, sharing one table. The Emperor: "Today is just a regular banquet, let's have fun together." The Minister of Rites led the singing of a congratulatory speech, followed by a performance. The daughters of the court generals presented martial arts. Guoguo clapped her hands in praise. "She's got the temperament of a heroine," Lucy whispered. "This is Luo Xiulin, the daughter of the first-rank general, Lord Luo Rui. Guoguo looks good, frank and bold."

Then came several ministers’ daughters, some of whom performed piano, some painted, and some composed poems. Guoguo listened and thought they were terrible. During the banquet, Old Lady Li wanted to go to the bathroom, so she left, followed by two of the four beauties. Guoguo said, “Grandma, I want to go too.” Seeing Guoguo was about to leave, Ye Heng followed her out. The daughter of the Minister of War said, “I don’t know what the prince likes about this woman.” When she said these jealous words, her mother gave her a fierce look and said, “Just watch and don’t say anything.” “Huh, my daughter wants to be the prince’s concubine. The prince is so handsome.” His father glared at him fiercely, “Shut up.”

The banquet lasted until midnight, and the emperor announced, "That's all for tonight, let's all go home." After that, the Empress Dowager, the emperor, Ye Heng and his family went to the imperial study.

Guoguo asked, "Brother Xiaodong, is there a girl you like?" Xiaodong looked at Guoguo and said, "I don't know her very well." Guoguo said, "I think Luo Xiulin is a good girl. She is graceful, heroic, and pretty. It doesn't have to be the daughter of a civil official." After Guoguo finished speaking, he took out his computer and played a video of what happened to everyone at the banquet tonight. Several people were watching the screen. The Emperor looked at Lu Xi and said, "Guo Guo is right. This daughter of a great general is calm and composed when faced with difficulties and speaks of others calmly and magnanimously." Lu Xi looked at Xiao Dong and said, "What a treasure! Mother has also seen that Luo Xiulin is a good child. What do you think?" Xiao Dong watched the entire banquet and said, "My son also thinks Luo Xiulin is okay. Let's try to get to know her." Guo Guo: "Yes, Brother Dong is right. Let's spend more time together and see how she gets along." Ye Heng: "I'll check it out too." Guo Guo said, "That's easy. Put the surveillance cameras in his house." Ye Heng ordered the secret guards to retrieve all the cameras and said, "Go, put them there..." The secret guards took the order and left. Ye Heng: "We'll see later, Your Majesty. Your nephew should also find an opportunity to go around. There's no rush." ​​The Emperor: "Yes."

Ye Heng: "Let's stop here for tonight. We should go back." The Emperor: "Okay, everyone go back. We'll meet again another day."

On the way home, guards closely followed the carriage. Guoguo: "Grandpa, you're still the most charming. So many women are talking about you." Chai Zhen: "Guoguo, please don't mention it anymore." Guoguo: "Understood." Ye Heng also smiled. Chai Zhen: "Be careful, little one." Ye Heng: "Grandpa, don't worry. Fengxing only has Guoguo in his heart." Xiao Shunzi: "Master, there are men in black approaching here." Guoguo: "Brother Ye, there are men in black approaching." Ye Heng: "Everyone, be careful, prepare to draw your swords." Guoguo: "Grandpa, grandma, let's go into the space. Guoguo will take everyone inside. Brother Ye, be careful." Ye Heng: "Don't worry, Guoguo." Guoguo: "Yes. Xiao Shunzi, keep a close watch outside and protect the prince." Xiao Shunzi: "Yes, Master." Guoguo released Xiao Shunzi. Ye Heng saw a robot emerge. Its eyes were two laser beams, scanning the area. It said, "They're coming with swords, slashing at us, and shooting arrows." The robot pointed its finger, and the arrows returned along the same path. Ye Heng listened to the clash of swords and blades. Less than a minute later, the surroundings quieted down. Ye Heng stepped out of the carriage. A large number of men in black fell. The guards went to check. "Your Highness, all the enemies are dead." The secret guards said, "Master, many have died in the distance." Ye Heng said, "Gather the bodies." Soon, the dead soldiers had gathered them. Ye Heng said, "Go report to the Supreme Court."

After a while, the Dali Temple official arrived with his constables and police officers. "Meet the prince." Ye Heng: "Look who is this assassin?" Guo Guo came out, got off the car, and followed Ye Heng to see the assassin. Ye Heng supported Guo Guo and said, "Get in the car, let's go home." Ye Heng: "Wang Hao, take them all back to the Dali Temple for a thorough inspection." Wang Hao: It's the prince.

Ye Heng: "Are any guards injured?" "Your Highness, no one died, a few were slightly injured." Ye Heng: "Go back and bandage them. Minor injuries should also be taken seriously." "Yes."

The carriage continued its journey and soon returned to the mansion. The guards closed the door. Ye Heng said, "Everyone, go back and rest. Bandage the injured."

Chai Zhen, Chai Ping'an, and Old Lady Li were not allowed out until the carriage arrived at the mansion. They were not allowed to see anything. Chai Zhen: "Fengxing, are you okay?" Ye Heng: "No, go back and rest."

Ye Heng and Guo Guo returned to the house. The three of them arrived at the space. Ye Heng fed the child first while Guo Guo went to wash up. After Ye Heng finished washing, Guo Guo asked, "Brother Ye, who do you think sent these people?" Ye Heng said, "I didn't check. I'll tell you tomorrow. Let's get some rest!" "Okay." Ye Heng hugged Guo Guo and went to sleep.
