Iron Dynasty

A red sun gradually disappeared on the horizon, and the lanterns on both sides of the road in the palace were lit one by one by the small yellow gates.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the palace looked beautiful under the light of the lanterns, and the beauty of the ancient style made Xiao Ming's mood a little quieter.

After talking with Concubine Zhen in Bishui Pavilion, Feng Deshui came to urge the two to go to Fulin Hall.

At this time, the prince, concubines and princesses have all arrived in the Fulin Hall, and the royal banquet is about to begin.

As Concubine Zhen went to the Fulin Palace, the court ladies who just happened to pass along the way cast charming glances at Xiao Ming from time to time.

Concubine Zhen smiled without saying a word. She naturally understood what was going on in the deep palace. Now that Xiao Ming is in full swing, these palace maids are looking forward to being seen by Xiao Ming.

In this way, they can have a worry-free second half of their lives.

After all, there are still palace maids in the palace who were spotted by the prince, so they flew up the branches and turned into phoenixes. However, this also shows the change in Xiao Ming's status now. He didn't have this treatment before.

The two soon arrived at the Fulin Hall. Just as Feng Deshui said, the prince, princess, and concubines in the Fulin Hall at this time all arrived.

Seeing Xiao Ming's arrival, some princes and princesses younger than Xiao Ming all stood up and saluted him.

The current Xiao Ming is no longer the Xiao Ming of the past. Although these princes and princesses are young, their mothers and concubines are very shrewd.

Before the family banquet started, they had already explained how to treat Xiao Ming.

Occasions with many people and lively people always make people feel good, and Xiao Ming also greeted them one by one.

At this moment, a pretty figure came to Xiao Ming and stretched out a small white hand.

Did Brother Qi bring me a gift? I'm running out of perfume. Princess Xiangcheng pouted, pestering Xiao Ming for a gift.

As soon as she opened her mouth, the other little princes and princesses followed suit, and they ran over and extended their hands to Xiao Ming, all of them staring blankly.

Many concubines smiled upon seeing this.

At this moment, Xiao Ming's mood suddenly turned cloudy, at least some younger siblings in the palace had no ill will towards him.

Li San's list is not all enemies. For example, this Princess Xiangcheng, her mother and concubine died young, and after Xiao Ming went to Qingzhou, Concubine Zhen felt that there was nothing to rely on, so she took Princess Xiangcheng under her knees She usually raised her own daughter, and Princess Xiangcheng was only seven years old at that time.

Now that six or seven years have passed, Princess Xiangcheng has turned into a little beauty and was adopted by Concubine Zhen. Princess Xiangcheng has always regarded Xiao Ming as her elder brother.

Therefore, Princess Xiangcheng was so intimate with Xiao Ming.

The gifts are all outside the palace, and you are indispensable. Xiao Ming rolled his eyes.

Hee hee, seventh brother is the best to me. Princess Xiangcheng had two dimples on her face, and returned to her seat with a smile.

It is actually very pitiful for a princess who has no background. In a place like the palace, having no background means that it can be manipulated by others. Those princesses who are sent to barbarians and relatives are all because they do not have rich family backgrounds.

Princess Xiangcheng had just left when a fourteen-year-old boy stood beside Xiao Ming, Seventh brother, can I go and fight the barbarians with you?

Are you Zi Yan? Looking carefully at this young man, Xiao Ming tried his best to recall that this seemed to be the Ninth Prince.

Rare, rare, I thought you didn't remember me, Brother Seven. Xiao Ziyan said with a smile.

Xiao Ming smiled helplessly, this Xiao Ziyan has nothing to do with him now, but will soon have a deeper relationship.

Because Xiao Ziyan wanted to call Fei Yue'er cousin, there was no other reason, his mother was Fiji's younger sister, the imperial concubine Gong.

Patting Xiao Ziyan's shoulder, Xiao Ming laughed. It seemed that he was not alone in Chang'an, and he finally understood Concubine Zhen's good intentions.

He said to Xiao Ziyan: Okay, as long as the royal father agrees, the seventh brother will take you to see what the battlefield is.

Xiao Ziyan turned to Xiao Wenxuan who was sitting in the main seat in surprise and said, Father, the seventh brother said that he is willing to take me to fight the barbarians.

Since Xiao Ming entered the Fulin Hall, Xiao Wenxuan's eyes were focused on Xiao Ming. Seeing Xiao Ming's expression gradually eased, he understood that he had taken the right step.

In the past, Xiao Ming was always alone and seemed to be rejected by this big family. Now he will understand that he is not only the seventh prince, but also the seventh brother of these princes and princesses.

He also has a responsibility to maintain the glory of the royal family.

Hahaha... Well, in that case, when you are a few years older, I will let you out. Xiao Wenxuan laughed.

Xiao Ziyan danced happily when she heard the words, and ran back to her place.

Then he played with a few little princes and princesses for a while before Xiao Ming found his seat and sat down.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Xiao Wenxuan clapped his hands, and the family banquet officially began.

Suddenly singing, dancing and vocal music came on stage, and the entire Fulin Hall was in a good mood. Xiao Wenxuan was also in a happy mood and frequently drank.

Xiao Ming looked at the opposite side while enjoying the singing and dancing. King Wei and King Yong were also there.

When his eyes came into contact with King Wei, King Wei's eyes flickered and he immediately raised the glass to pretend to drink, while King Yong raised the glass to face each other from a distance.

Xiao Ming smiled, this time in Chang'an, this good show is still to come.

It seems to be a pure family banquet, Xiao Wenxuan only cares about drinking and feasting, and does not mention government affairs at all.

Seeing other princes raising their glasses to toast Xiao Wenxuan, Xiao Ming followed suit. An hour passed, and the family banquet was coming to an end. At this time, Xiao Ming sounded something, and he said, Father, in a few months, we will be here. The New Year is coming, after this big wedding, my son will return to Qingzhou, I am afraid that I will not be able to celebrate the festival with the father, so I specially brought some gadgets to the father.

Ming'er is really filial. Every time I think about bringing gifts to the father, let the father see what it is. Xiao Wenxuan was very happy, and his tone became more and more intimate to Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming smiled and said, I have already brought this thing, and I have asked the royal father to accompany him to the outside of the hall. For this big wedding, the son also wants to use this thing, and I hope that the royal father agrees to transfer it to the Ministry of Rites.

Xiao Wenxuan became more and more surprised, so he said to the prince and concubines, Let's go, let's see what new things Qilang has tinkered with.

At this time, it was completely dark outside.

As soon as Xiao Wenxuan's voice fell, the younger princes immediately ran out cheering, they all knew that this seventh brother was a very powerful person.

The prince, the second prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince showed displeased expressions. Once Xiao Ming came to Chang'an, there would be no chance for them to show their faces.

In particular, the prince looked at Xiao Ming viciously, but he suddenly laughed strangely again, as if he was very proud.
