The people in the palace are all very busy. They usually salute me respectfully when they see me, but now they mostly bow slightly when they see me, and many of them even walk away quickly without raising their heads. , you can see how busy they are today.And I naturally don't need to care, after all, I don't pay much attention to these etiquette matters, and even now I feel more comfortable with them like this.

And I inadvertently heard some discussions while they were idle in their busy schedules. Some people said that all this is the conspiracy of our princess, because it is impossible to hold a perfect banquet in such a short period of time. , and she can use this to humiliate Liyue Kingdom.Afterwards, the others all aroused their fighting spirit because of his words, shouted loudly, and started to work more seriously.And of course I didn't care about it, because I also know the princess well, and she doesn't seem to be able to do such dirty things.And this is nothing more than normal gossip, there is no need to take it seriously, and it is good to cheer up their mood.

As the imperial concubine of Liyue Kingdom, I naturally have to attend, but the banquet will be held in the evening, so I can still sleep late until I wake up naturally.However, Her Majesty must get up early, not only to go to the early court to handle government affairs, but also to discuss with all civil and military officials at the banquet tonight. After all, the arrival of our princess is related to the image between the two countries, and it must be done. There is no room for loss in every link.

Her Majesty the Queen also knew that I had never participated in this kind of royal banquet, so she told me some details about daily banquets, and told me gently that there is no need to be nervous, she is there for everything.But I still don't know what to do, and the maids of course don't have the opportunity to participate, so they don't know much about it.I originally wanted to ask Leli for more details, but because of tonight's banquet, she needs to be on guard in the palace all day, in case some interested people do things to disturb the banquet.Naturally, I also sympathized with her hard work, so I just said hello and left in a hurry.

Then I thought of Leng Xue, as the princess of Liyue Kingdom, she must be no stranger to this kind of banquet.It's just that on the way there, I thought, since she is the princess of Liyue Kingdom, she must be extremely busy, so it would be bad for me to disturb her by going there like this.However, I saw that familiar figure in a familiar place, doing familiar things in a familiar pose.

"Xuexue, why are you still in the mood to sleep late! Don't you know that the banquet is tonight?!" I exclaimed in disbelief.

"I know." She narrowed her eyes and glanced at me, then closed them again.

"Then why don't you make preparations?" I asked in surprise, isn't she planning to attend?

"You said yourself that the banquet is tonight, why are you preparing so early." She gave me a blank look.

"Hehe, that's right." I smiled awkwardly, I was indeed too nervous.

"You don't have to care so much, just relax. Although it's a banquet in the palace, it's actually not restrictive, but everyone is feasting on it, and no one will notice even if they lose their composure." Leng Xue was suddenly very upset. Speak to me seriously.

"Well! Thank you Xuexue, please take care of me when the time comes!" After listening to her words, my mood instantly relaxed a lot.

"You have the imperial sister to take care of you, so I have nothing to do with you." Leng Xue said lightly.

"Uh..." Why is she still so hostile to me?

Because I have to attend the banquet tonight in full dress, and it takes a long time to dress up complicatedly, so before I go out, the maids begged me to go back earlier to let them prepare well, so I stayed for a while and followed Leng Xue said goodbye.Afterwards, it took almost an hour to completely complete a series of dresses. Looking at the well-dressed man in front of me, I really miss it a bit. I still remember the first time I dressed like this when I first came here, and then I never No, it's just because Her Majesty is indifferent by nature, not only are there many ceremonies in the palace that can be avoided, but even invitations from ministers in the palace are always pushed and shoved, so I spend almost every day alone with Her Majesty, But I also enjoy it.

"I really don't want others to see your current appearance." Her Lady Queen suddenly said sullenly.

"Uh, isn't it! Is it strange that I'm like this now?" I was frightened by Her Lady Queen's words, so I kept looking in the mirror, but I still couldn't see why.There shouldn't be any problems with this makeup, red blush and red lips add a bit of beauty.Could it be my clothes?That's right, after all, I'm not from a famous family, so naturally I don't have this noble temperament to go with the gorgeous clothes on my body.

She suddenly grabbed my hand, played with it for a while, and said dissatisfiedly: "Jojo's beauty should only be appreciated by me alone."

I was speechless for a moment, so she meant that, but when it comes to beauty, she is obviously the most beautiful, I'm afraid I can't match her even one ten-thousandth.

As the dinner was approaching, Her Majesty the Empress led me into the hall. Food and wine had already been placed on the respective seats, and the dignitaries and eunuchs had already sat down, but the princess seemed not to come yet.The officials who were still chattering when they saw the arrival of Her Majesty the Queen immediately fell silent, and each returned to their seats, quietly waiting for Her Majesty's order. In an instant, the hall became extremely quiet, and the atmosphere also changed. Get serious.

"Princess Feng Lingguo Ling Ruo has arrived!" The servant outside the door suddenly shouted loudly.

I saw the princess leading a few people to the center of the hall slowly, "Sorry, we are late, Wang Sheng Haihan." Although the princess was apologetic, she was smiling all the time , there is a faint domineering aura of a king.

"Where, the princess is laughing. It is my honor for the princess to come from a long distance to celebrate my birthday. The princess came all the way, but the reception is not good enough. I hope the princess will forgive me." Her Lady Queen said with a smile.

"The Holy Majesty is too polite. Not only did the Holy Majesty not blame Lingruo for his abruptness, but he was also honored to allow me to join the Holy Majesty's birthday banquet. Lingruo thanked the Holy Majesty for his kindness."

"How can it be abrupt for the princess to show her face to attend my birthday banquet? If there is anything the princess is dissatisfied with at this banquet, I hope the princess will forgive me."

Listening to their conversation, there is a feeling of a master's move, I am sweating all over my body, their words are too good, although they are all humble sentences, but they are not at that level at all. , especially the attitude of both sides doing their part.I couldn't bear their tricks, so I turned to look at the people around the princess, but I was stunned when I saw it. I have seen Xiaolan next to the princess, and she appeared beside the princess. It's not surprising at all, but why did Xia Li and Ning Xi appear here? !

Chapter 41

I haven't seen Xia Li and Ning Xi for half a year, and I didn't tell them that I came to Liyue Kingdom, and I don't know if they still remember me after so long.At this time, they have also been dressed up, and it seems that I have never seen them like this since I met them, which is really a bit new.They looked trembling at this time, and they seemed very unaccustomed to this place, but they are also people who often participate in such occasions, so they shouldn't be like this.And I couldn't figure out why they would follow the princess. Although they would also participate in the activities in the palace, I had never heard that they were so familiar with the princess.

"I heard that the Holy Majesty recently welcomed a new imperial concubine, and I didn't have time to congratulate him. I don't know if Ling Ruo will be lucky enough to see it today. I don't know what kind of country and city is worthy of the Holy Majesty..." When the princess said this, her eyes widened. Slowly looked towards me, and when I heard what the princess said, I glanced at the princess with guilt, so our eyes met.The princess was obviously stunned when she saw me. Although it was only for a moment, she quickly returned to normal, but the princess had already recognized me, and I immediately turned my head to avoid the princess' gaze, not daring to look at her again.

"Hehe, let's stop being polite. If this goes on like this, I'm afraid everyone will starve to death, and the food and drinks will be cold. Let's start today's banquet now." Her Lady Queen said at the right time, although she still kept a smile on her face. But I felt Her Lady Queen's face was a little colder.

"The Holy Majesty is right!" The princess and the accompanying people saluted briefly, then walked slowly to their seats and sat down.

Under the order of Her Majesty the Queen, tonight's banquet was officially declared to begin. The side of the hall was already filled with wooden tables, on which were placed all kinds of delicacies for people to use at will. Eat and drink while talking to the people around you.Of course, a toast to tonight's birthday star, Her Majesty the Empress, was also indispensable, and Her Majesty the Empress would not refuse anyone who came, and they all paid back one by one. After a while, almost all the officials in the palace had already toasted to Her Majesty the Empress.I looked at Her Lady Empress worriedly, but she was not drunk at all, which made me feel unbelievable and at the same time I admire Her Lady Queen's drinking capacity, as I probably would have fainted by drinking a glass like me.In fact, there were also people who toasted me during the period, but they were all blocked by Her Majesty, Her Majesty is still so considerate and doting on me!

It's just that although Her Majesty has a good capacity for alcohol, alcohol still hurts her stomach, "Leng Yue, you must have a hard time in your stomach after drinking so much, I'll go get you something to eat."
