Soul swap tyrant always wants to have a baby
Chapter 56: Beauty? Accept all who come
The fact that the Southern Xinjiang Saint Lady spoke to the Emperor alone after the banquet and was then left in the palace was not deliberately concealed.
So the envoys and officials received the news shortly after they arrived home.
This made the officials who intended to send their daughters to the palace and the envoys who intended to marry into the Dongxia extremely excited.
If the Emperor accepts the Saint of Southern Xinjiang, he will not just accept one Saint of Southern Xinjiang.
In the past, officials of Dongxia also wanted to put women into the emperor's harem. As long as their daughters or sisters gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, their family would prosper.
But they were either rejected by the emperor or died for various reasons not long after entering the palace.
The women in the harem now are either daughters of minor officials or legitimate daughters of important officials in the court. They are all the first group to enter the palace when the emperor ascends the throne.
In the past year or so, not a single woman has been successfully sent in. Now that they have accepted the Southern Xinjiang Saint, the women in their family will also have a chance.
Most of the young ladies were shocked when they heard the news.
In the past two days, they have seen the young emperor who is cold and noble, like a banished immortal, has superb martial arts skills and can also make poisons.
Many young ladies have already fallen in love with him. When they learned that the emperor had taken the Saint of Southern Xinjiang into his harem, they felt both sad and a hint of anticipation.
Especially those young ladies who are not favored at home, if they are lucky enough to enter the palace, they can become queens.
Otherwise, you will just be used as a pawn for your father and brothers to climb up the social ladder and be sent to an unknown family for marriage.
At this time, the young ladies had already been bewitched by the emperor they had met, and no one remembered that many women who had been stuffed into the harem had died before.
Because there were several quiet literary examinations during the Wanshou Festival, each official was allowed to bring five family members. Adding the number of envoys from various countries, the number was comparable to a large-scale gathering.
However, Yan Ruju already knew Leng Qingyi's arrangements and had already arranged the positions.
Just looking at those young ladies dressed up in fancy clothes makes me feel a little sad.
The envoys who did not bring women to the banquet in the past two days also brought one or two beautiful women to attend the birthday banquet today.
Today’s Longevity Festival started early in the morning. After all, there are many programs, and if it starts at noon, there won’t be enough time.
After all, the envoys' only purpose of coming here was not to celebrate the birthday, they also had some political matters to discuss.
So it is divided into two sessions, morning and afternoon.
In the morning, there were competitions and Dongxia officials presenting gifts, and in the afternoon, the envoys presented birthday gifts. If there was anything to say, they would submit a visiting card to the palace in the afternoon or after the Emperor's birthday celebration to talk to him alone.
I don't know if it's because there must be brave men when there is a big reward, but in the several competitions this morning, all the envoys were killed by the officials, young men and women of Dongxia without a single soldier left.
Especially the Fifth Prince Nanqiu, who was not only completely crushed by the Prime Minister but also lost to Zhongli He and barely got third place. His face looked extremely ugly.
The rest of the envoys were not much better. Their countries only got one or two places in the top ten, or were at the bottom.
Seeing such a battle situation, Leng Qing smiled slightly.
The Prime Minister and the King of Qi only participated in Nan Qiu's competition, otherwise most of the first place would have been taken by Leng Wuqin.
The ministers of Dongxia all felt their blood boiling as if they had won a battle on the battlefield. At the same time, their prejudice against their own emperor became less and their faith in him became more.
The envoys all looked unhappy, but since it was the birthday of the Emperor of Dongxia, they could only force themselves to smile, especially the country that offered an extremely expensive prize.
In the morning, after the Dongxia officials presented their birthday gifts, they let their families go home. In the afternoon, the birthday gifts presented by the envoys were much more valuable than those given by the officials.
Leng Qingyi knew very well that they had prepared at least two or three birthday gifts before they came, just to see with their own eyes whether she, the emperor, was worthy of such good things.
If she is incompetent, she can just take the worst one, but with the two hands she missed, she should at least take the middle one if not the best one.
But everything in her territory is hers. Only children make choices, but she wants them all.
If you want to live comfortably in the future, you have to save some money.
After the birthday gifts were presented, it was time to talk about business, and the atmosphere became serious from the initial light-heartedness.
"Emperor Dongxia, I, Xichun, wish to marry you. Our Ninth Princess has also come to celebrate your birthday and has carefully prepared a dance. Your Majesty, I wish you could see it."
"The beauty's careful preparations must not be wasted."
The originally serious singing and chorus was completely eliminated by the lively drum music.
Among the Xichun envoys, a woman with a stunning bun on her head and wearing a light blue gauze dress with scattered white magnolia flowers walked out slowly to the music.
Her shoulders were as sharp as a knife, her waist was as straight as a slender waist, her toes were slightly pointed, and her arms as white as jade were slowly raised as she danced in the hall.
When the dance was halfway through, the veil fell off and everyone could see the appearance of the Ninth Princess clearly.
It was at this time that everyone discovered that the Ninth Princess had been covering her face with a veil and had not revealed her true appearance. Everyone was attracted by her slender and graceful figure and ignored her appearance.
Now that I have seen her beauty, I feel that the heaven and earth are eclipsed. I don’t know how many people’s hearts have been captured by her charming smile.
After the dance, the woman slowly bowed in salute according to Dongxia etiquette.
"I wish His Majesty prosperity and longevity."
"Okay, with the princess's blessing, Nie Yueming will take the jade ruyi from my private vault and give it to the Ninth Princess."
Seeing this, Prince Xichunyong was secretly proud.
The emperor has bestowed the jade ruyi, so the meaning is self-evident. Xichun and Dongxia are now connected.
With Xichun taking the lead, the other envoys who didn't know how to present the beautiful women they brought to the emperor followed suit and asked the women they brought to perform their talents.
Leng Qingyi was very generous this time, either giving a ruyi, a jade pendant or a bracelet as a reward.
As long as someone was willing to give her a woman, she would accept them all, which made the Dongxia officials watching almost bite their teeth.
If I had known earlier, I would have let my daughter perform for the emperor, but unfortunately the morning time is too short and there is no time.
"Emperor Dongxia, what do you think about the marriage between the two countries?"
Seeing that Leng Qing kept admiring him but did not express his attitude clearly, Prince Yong of Xichun became a little restless.
"Marriage is naturally a good thing, and it will strengthen the friendship between the two countries. I agree. Ninth Princess, take a look at who the ministers in this palace have taken a fancy to. I will grant you a marriage, but the prerequisite is that you choose someone who is still married."
The Ninth Princess glanced at all the ministers present, paused for a moment on the faces of several young men including Ling Xuan, Ji Yechen and Zhong Lihe, then raised her head and met Leng Qingyi's eyes.
"Your Majesty, I was captivated by your wise and majestic figure at the welcoming banquet that day. No man here can compare to you. I want to marry you."
"But I have many women in my harem. If you marry me, you will definitely suffer some grievances."
"I know that in our Xichun, people of great ability have the right to have multiple partners, and it is right for the emperor to have as many beauties as he wants."
