After being reborn, he was doted on by his scumbag brother.

Lin Qingyao smiled upon hearing this and teased him deliberately, "My husband should be more nervous. The Second Prince of Weiyuan is indeed very outstanding. I think it would be hard for anyone not to like him. When he shows up at the banquet, he will definitely steal the show."

Jamel Xiao smiled indifferently, "I don't care whether he is in the limelight or not. Whoever likes him can go ahead. I just want my wife to like him."

Lin Qingyao glanced at Jamel Xiao when she heard this. Although she looked disgusted on the surface, she couldn't help feeling sweet in her heart.

"Okay, you're the only one who's good at talking. But having said that, I think his thoughts and opinions on certain things are quite similar to yours. When the time comes, find a chance to talk to him, and maybe you'll feel like you've met him too late."

Jamel Xiao nodded when he heard this. “Now that you mention it, I am really curious. Then I will listen to Madam and meet him at my father’s birthday banquet.”

After many days of preparation, Xiao Chenyu's birthday party was held as scheduled.

This time envoys from other countries came to celebrate, and those who could participate were naturally people of noble status.

Apart from the royal family and the masters in the palace, only officials of the second rank and above are eligible to attend with their families.

Li Yaxuan was also able to attend this feast today and was very excited.

As soon as she saw Xiao Qingning, Li Yaxuan immediately went to greet her happily. Originally, Xiao Qingning was also very happy to see her, but she was surprised by Li Yaxuan's words.

"Sister-in-law, we meet again!"

Xiao Qingning was startled by her calling her "Second Sister-in-law" and quickly covered her mouth.

Xiao Qingning quickly looked around and found that everyone was normal and no one was paying attention to what was happening here, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Qingning whispered, "Xuan'er, few people know about your second brother and I. There are so many people here today, you have to be careful with your words. Besides, our relationship is still undecided, aren't you too anxious?"

Li Yaxuan could see that although Xiao Qingning said this, she still felt a little happy when she called him that.

Li Yaxuan said indifferently: "You two are in sync with each other, and no one objects. Your marriage is just a matter of time. What is there to worry about? Just treat it as getting used to this title in advance. But don't worry, I know my limits, and I won't show it in front of other people."

Xiao Qingning shook her head helplessly upon hearing this, but she did not refute Li Yaxuan's words, because in fact, she thought the same in her heart.

"Okay, as long as you don't talk nonsense outside, you can do whatever you want with me."

After hearing this, Li Yaxuan smiled brightly and said coquettishly: "Hehe, I know that the second sister-in-law is the best. Let's sit down and talk."

After everyone arrived, envoys from various countries came on stage one by one to send birthday wishes to Xiao Chenyu.

As for the envoys sent by the first few small countries, Xiao Chenyu merely politely exchanged greetings with them, but as for Weiyuan and Dongyuan, Xiao Chenyu attached great importance to them.

After all, they had sent the prince in person to congratulate him, so as the host he naturally had to welcome him well.

The first to enter the hall were Ye Hengjing and the envoys from Weiyuan State. Although Weiyuan State was smaller than Da Qi State, it was comparable to Da Qi State in terms of wealth and strength and should not be underestimated.

In recent years, the two countries have maintained friendly exchanges and intermarriages.

Xiao Chenyu's cousin, Princess Showa, married Ye Hengjing's uncle. Although Princess Showa married far away, she lived in harmony with her husband, had a son and a daughter, and lived a very happy life.

Princess Showa was originally just a princess. At that time, Weiyuan State proposed a marriage with Da Qi State. The late emperor had no daughter and was worried about it. So Princess Showa took the initiative to express her willingness to go to the marriage and contribute to the harmony between the two countries.

The late emperor was grateful for his niece's contribution to the country, so he named her Princess Showa and prepared a generous dowry for her so that she could marry in grand style.

Princess Showa was also lucky. Although she married far away in a foreign country, she met a husband who loved her very much and she has lived happily over the years.

Ye Hengjing was very handsome. As soon as he entered the hall, he attracted the attention of all the women present.

Li Yaxuan was no exception and whispered to Xiao Qingning, "I didn't expect that the Second Prince of Weiyuan Kingdom is quite handsome, but he seems to be a bit unpredictable because he can't show his emotions on his face."

Xiao Qingning smiled when he heard that. "You've only met him for the first time, and you think you can tell what he's thinking? He's a prince. Born in an imperial family, it's impossible for him to be innocent. You can't tell from the surface, but I don't know how many secrets he has in his heart. But to be honest, he does look handsome. Look at those young ladies from aristocratic families. They've never taken their eyes off him since he walked in."

Li Yaxuan chuckled and said jokingly, "Oh, you think so too, sister? But my second brother will be sad if he hears you say that. Sister Ning'er, honestly, who do you think is more handsome, him or my second brother?"

After asking this, Li Yaxuan laughed. Seeing Li Yaxuan's malicious eyes, Xiao Qingning glanced at her.

"Xuan'er, who did you learn this from? Why are you trying to embarrass others like this now?"

Li Yaxuan smiled when she heard that and said coquettishly, "Oh, how can it be so serious as what you said, sister? I'm just a little curious. Sister, you are the best. Just satisfy my curiosity."

Seeing Li Yaxuan blinking her big eyes and looking at her, Xiao Qingning couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.

Xiao Qingning responded helplessly: "From a fair and just perspective, it is true that the Second Prince is more handsome. But in my heart, no one can compare to your second brother. So, are you satisfied with this answer? Has your curiosity been satisfied?"

Li Yaxuan was delighted when she heard this and nodded repeatedly.

Li Yaxuan smiled at Xiao Qingning with a flattering look on her face, "Satisfied, satisfied, not only is my curiosity satisfied, but I am also very satisfied with your answer. People say that a lover's eyes see beauty in a woman, and this is indeed true. It seems that in my heart, my second brother is more important, no matter how many handsome men appear, it is useless."

Xiao Qingning smiled helplessly upon hearing this, "That's enough, there are so many people here, be quiet and don't attract other people's attention."

Upon hearing this, Li Yaxuan nodded obediently, sat down obediently in her seat, and continued to look at Ye Hengjing.

"Ye Hengjing, the second prince of Weiyuan, greets your majesty and the queen. I wish your majesty a long life and good health, and the prosperity of the Great Qi Kingdom. I also hope that the relationship between the two countries can continue to be harmonious and friendly."

Xiao Chenyu was very satisfied with Ye Hengjing's blessing. "Hahaha, well said! Although the two countries are not far away, it still takes some time to travel back and forth. It's really hard to travel all the way. I wonder if you have had a good rest these days?"

Ye Hengjing said respectfully: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Your country has taken very good care of us, and everyone has rested well."
