Isn’t it good for the five of us to be together?

Fortunately, Ling Hengyuan came after a while. After receiving the audience from the courtiers, I winked at him: Why am I sitting here?

Ling Hengyuan looked puzzled: No way?

I winked: How can this be done?

Ling Hengyuan gave me a reassuring expression.

I was still thinking about reasoning when a cough brought my thoughts back, and I realized that many people were looking at me.

It's over, I can't explain it clearly now, tomorrow I will be the hottest rumor in the market.

Seeing Ling Hengyuan's innocent expression, I didn't care anymore. He wouldn't sell me in the end anyway. Looking at the rich food in front of me, I started to use my chopsticks after being hungry all day.

Now that something has happened, let the soldiers come to block it, the water come and the soil cover it, and we need to eat and drink when we need to.

The envoys began to present gifts, which opened my eyes. One was a huge red coral bonsai, another was a luminous pearl, and another was silk...

With my current level of education, I can’t remember full names. Anyway, they are specialties, novelties and valuables from various places.

A princess and a prince also came from that foreign land. In addition to presenting gifts, they also performed a dance. It should be a dance and music unique to the foreign land. I had never heard it in Nanyang. The dancing is beautiful, especially from my position, where the view is even better. But when I looked at Ling Hengyuan, he had a boring expression on his face. I doubted that this person had really stopped loving each other and ended up in the mortal world...

The exotic princess seemed to be giving me a "wink". I was calm on the outside, but I was already screaming in my heart. Qin Che's eyes were fixed on me, which affected my performance.

As soon as the dance was over, the banquet was full of compliments.

Ling Hengyuan's official comment: "This dance is very beautiful, and there are many rewards!"

Perhaps it was the princess and prince from a foreign land who started it, and the envoys all showed off their own unique skills. This one breathed fire, that one sword flower...it was comparable to the acrobatic troupe, and the ladies from various official families also tried their best to show off their unique skills. Own.

I was so happy watching the performance and eating the big meal that I couldn't tell whether I was here to play or to eat...

Almost everyone had performed their skills, except Beiyin, who boldly raised the question: "I wonder what the Beiyin Kingdom brought to congratulate His Majesty?"

I also looked over curiously, unaware that my face was covered in oil stains.

Chi Wanshen and the eldest princess showed no signs of being offended. On the contrary, they were smiling. Chi Wanshen took a sip of tea. The eldest princess spoke at the right time: "Beiyin Duan has no reason to let the prince and princess perform the dance." .”

The expression of the foreign prince and princess changed.

I thought to myself: This eldest princess really dares to say that if the princess were to confront her, I don’t know who would be more indulgent.

Chi Wanshen stood up. I always felt that something big was about to happen. He made a salute, with a gentle smile on his face, and said slowly: "This time Beiyin comes here to establish friendly relations with Nanyang Dun."

I saw Ling Hengyuan squinting his eyes slightly and tapping his fingers on the table intentionally or unintentionally, so I knew he was getting impatient.

Ling Hengyuan: "How does the regent want to conduct diplomatic relations between the two countries?"

At this time, the eldest princess came up slowly and bowed.

I was wondering what the two of them wanted to do, when a handkerchief was thrown over from beside me, and Ling Hengyuan whispered: "Wipe your face, look at how stupid you are."

Me: "..." When a handkerchief was wiped off, it was full of oil stains... It was a bit embarrassing.

Just listen to the eldest princess say: "As we all know, the most important strategy for building peace and friendship in the past dynasties is marriage."

I wiped my hand with the handkerchief... Everyone knows that Ling Hengyuan's harem is empty. Not to mention the prince and princess, even the concubine is nowhere to be seen. When the eldest princess talks about marriage, could it be... could she want Princess Xiangyou to marry her? Go to Beiyin!

I looked at the princess, who was eating snacks leisurely. Feeling my anxious gaze, the princess said: "?"

As soon as the eldest princess said this, everyone started to make a noise.

Ling Hengyuan's face was not very good, and he said: "What does the eldest princess mean by this?"

The eldest princess smiled lightly and said: "This princess can marry into Nanyang for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries."

Me: "O_o"? , who will she marry? Who marries Ling Hengyuan?

Ling Hengyuan's fingers tapped on the table harder. I no longer knew whether he was thinking or indicating that his mood was getting worse.

I knocked on the system in my head: What if Ling Hengyuan has a queen?

"drop! Considered as host task failure! 』

Me:...So I have to stop this marriage?

What's all this troublesomeness?

Before Ling Hengyuan could speak, the princess from the foreign land also stood up and said with a bow: "My country in the Western Regions also has this intention."

I:?

Everyone:!

At this time, Ling Hengyuan, who had become a favorite, suddenly smiled. I felt a chill all over next to me, and the premonition became even stronger.

Ling Hengyuan: "If this marriage can make Nanyang and other countries more friendly, then I will be willing to do so."

I can already feel the relief and joy of the courtiers - Nanyang is finally about to welcome its first queen. Although it is possible that she is the princess of Beiyin, as long as it can spread the influence of the royal family, these veterans will definitely accept it happily.

Ling Hengyuan changed his words and said: "It's just that I already have someone I like, and now my heart and eyes are full of her. If the two countries get married, I'm afraid the princess will be too wronged."

I:?

Everyone:?

Does Ling Hengyuan have someone he likes? who? where?

I saw Ling Hengyuan stand up and stand next to me. Suddenly my alarm went off. The next moment, Ling Hengyuan took my hand. His hand was so strong that I couldn't refuse. He lifted me up and stood side by side with him.

Just listen to him say: "Chen Yueji is the person I like."

I was confused, not knowing why things suddenly developed like this. Everyone had different expressions. Qin Che almost rushed forward, but was stopped by a group of people.

I asked why this position was arranged for me, and why I had such a strong premonition today... The trap is waiting for me here.

I moved Ling Hengyuan's hand holding mine, but he held it tighter.

I gave up the struggle, thinking that it would develop like this as I wanted. Zhengchou didn't know how to persuade the two princesses to retreat, so now he gave me a chance.

With a smile on my face, I held Ling Hengyuan's hand. His hands were slightly calloused, but their palms were broad and warm. Ling Hengyuan looked at me, and I gave him a reassuring expression. With tacit understanding, he understood my intention.

The eldest princess's face could not be said to be good or bad. She said: "In this case, I will not fight for love. I just have some doubts. Everyone knows that His Majesty Nanyang's harem is empty. Could it be that he is just waiting for Mr. Chen? ?”

She was testing Ling Hengyuan.

If he admits it personally today, then marrying me will be inevitable. If a new person comes into the palace later, Ling Hengyuan will be the one with the shameless face. If he doesn't admit it, it means that the foreign princess still has a chance. This statement was just to make Ling Hengyuan unable to dismount.

But who Ling Hengyuan is, he is not restricted by anyone.

He raised his lips and smiled and said, "Princess, you can guess on your own." After that, he pulled me to sit down and served me another portion of the dishes I had finished.

Princess Beiyin's face turned livid for a moment. It seemed that she didn't expect Ling Hengyuan to say this directly, making her unable to get off the stage.

Chi Wanshen coughed a few times, asked her to return to her seat, and found a place to go down the stairs.
