The paintings that the emperor allowed to see were not good even if they were good, and all the ministers praised them.

Looking at Princess Xiangyu, everyone felt a little pity. It was a pity for such a talented, talented and beautiful person.

"Xiang Yu is more thoughtful than me and has prepared preparations for my father's birthday gift in advance. In addition to this painting, there is also..."

The emperor spoke to himself, with a smile on his face, just like an elder brother showing off his younger sister.

The Supreme Emperor's eyes were moist and he looked very moved.

Li Yi narrowed his eyes. Today's meal has turned off his appetite.

Princess Xiangyu was the only one in the audience. She had no expression from beginning to end. No matter what you say, we are not in the same world and cannot hear it.

"Look at me, I forgot the time again."

After talking for a while, the emperor knocked on his head and asked the eunuch to put the painting away. There was a sadness in his eyes that a blind man could feel.

"Have a banquet!"

Following the emperor's order, the maids came in one after another carrying dishes.

Singing and dancing also took place.

Produced by the royal family, well, it was of a higher grade than what Song Cao showed him.

While everyone was immersed in it, a eunuch hurriedly walked to the emperor and whispered in the ear. The smile on the emperor's face disappeared instantly. He slammed the table and stood up.

The dancing girls immediately fell to their knees in fear.

All the officials looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

For a moment, there was silence in the hall.

The Supreme Emperor frowned, "Emperor, why are you so angry?"

"Go back."

The emperor waved the dancing girl away, then looked at the officials, "All the ministers, please come back too."

"I'm waiting to retire."

The emperor issued an order to expel guests. They would not be greedy for the food on the table. In half an hour, all the ministers in the palace dispersed.

I was speculating in my mind as to what happened outside to cause the emperor to have such a big reaction.

"Father, all the people you sent have been sent back, and Daqian's envoys are outside the palace." The emperor's voice was condensed, "I said it was a gift for you, and I asked you to receive it in person."

The Emperor's face darkened, "How brave!"

"Do you need to tell me this? Just kill him."

"I'm afraid it won't work." The emperor shook his head, "A hundred thousand troops united with the Rong Kingdom are pressing towards Fengdu Ridge. I'm afraid they are just waiting for us to give them a reason to fight."

"They really dare." The Supreme Emperor narrowed his eyes, murderous intent surging.

The Rong Kingdom has been severely damaged and there is no need to worry about it, but Daqian, they also have gunpowder. If they want to break the pot, they will lose both sides. In the end, I don’t know who will get the advantage.

This would lead to a war, which is really not a wise move.

The Supreme Emperor overturned the table and walked away with his sleeves thrown away.

"Brother Zhao, do you think the King of Chu will come to receive birthday gifts? We worked hard to send people back to him, and everyone is still angry."

At the gate of the palace and in front of the prison car, the four guards looked at the Xiangwu guards surrounding them with a smile, and one of them spoke out.

"It doesn't matter whether he takes it or not, we just follow the mission. It's not our shame anyway." Another guard answered and spat.

"I can't yell anymore, Yaozi, it's your turn to take over."

"I've been missing out on you along the way, so why are you so weak?"

The man who was called Yaozi tilted his eyes at his companion with contempt, and took a deep breath, "I would like to congratulate the Grand Emperor of Chu on his birthday, and I would like to offer you a birthday gift. You are despicable, but we are kind, and we have sent all the people back to you. "

"No need to thank me, the master told me to use whatever tricks you have."

"We give you this birthday gift every year!"

The people were surrounded by Xiangwu guards, but the sound could not be isolated, especially these middle-aged men. The sound was like a loud bell, making it impossible for people to pretend not to hear it.

Li Yi and others who had left the palace had wonderful expressions when they heard these words.

Daqian is really brave!

Is this going to start a war?

While thinking, Baiguan pretended to be deaf and walked forward without any pause, as if he was going to court normally.

"In recent days, you should go to the palace less often, be more careful about everything, and don't cause trouble." On the carriage, Father Sheng reminded Li Yi.

"Yes, father-in-law." Li Yi looked solemn and nodded.

After returning home with Yun Niang, Li Yi asked Huanji to inquire about the situation. The Imperial Army had just arrived two days ago, and now, they could not be expected to build their own intelligence network.

"It's really my fault."

Li Yi took off Yun Niang's headdress. Although Da Qian still had to wear court clothes to show respect for the royal family on important occasions, it was really not as heavy as that of Chu State. It was relatively simple.

"Madam, in the history of the Chu Kingdom, is there any woman who was crushed to death by court clothes and crowns because of the emperor's great favor?"

"You think of women as too fragile."

"Even if they faint, they will only faint at home and lose their manners in front of the palace. Such disrespect will seriously affect the career of their father, brother, and husband." Yun Niang said casually.

After changing her clothes, she leaned into Li Yi's arms and said, "Are you going to start a war by doing this?"

"It shouldn't be the case. Given Taifu's behavior, he would not declare war in such a high-profile manner."

After stroking Yun Niang's green hair, Li Yi raised his eyes and said, "Where's the Geying guy? I want to vomit blood for my popularity."

"It would be nice if I could be so angry that I would be able to save myself from having to deal with things day by day."

"The Supreme Emperor has already thought about Taifu Zhou. After this incident, I'm afraid he won't let him go anymore." Yun Niang whispered.

"Zhou Renshi, that's not a fuel-efficient lamp. If he can do this, he must have a plan. Instead of worrying about him, it's better to worry about me." Li Yi raised his lips and smiled.

"That's true." Yun Niang nodded in agreement.

"Isn't the dance in the main hall pretty?"

Unexpectedly, Yun Niang's topic would change so quickly. Li Yi subconsciously nodded, stopped the car in a hurry, coughed, and pretended to be casual, "It's not good-looking, it's just ordinary."

Yun Niang laughed out loud, "Do you think you're so domineering to me?"

"My wife is the most gentle." Li Yi grinned.

"I really can't believe a word of it. You are the most serious person around us. I'm even worried that you will drool."

Li Yi raised his head and smiled, "I only appreciate art. I can never let down other people's achievements. I have practiced countless times before I can perform in front of the palace."

"I didn't realize that you are still such an elegant person." Yun Niang looked at him with a half-smile.

"My wife has discovered that it is always difficult for unique individuals to blend in with the world. I have no choice but to follow the waves to cover myself. The pain in it is difficult for outsiders to know." Li Yi lamented.

Seeing Yun Niang's slightly narrowed eyes, Li Yi smiled shyly and did not dare to pretend any more.

Burying his head in the crook of Yun Niang's neck, Li Yi said: "Madam, how about a dance? It's a long night, I can't sleep alone, I can't have anyone to accompany me, at least I can let this dance accompany me to sleep."

"I really can't help you. What kind of dance do you want to see?"

Yun Niang got up from Li Yi and looked at him with a soft smile.

"At once……"

"Uncle, Huanji is back."

The maid's words interrupted Li Yi, who smiled helplessly.

"Don't look bad when you look back." He pulled Yun Niang into a hug, and Li Yi kissed her before going out.
