Xiao Chenyu nodded when he heard this. "Your country is so sincere that you have come all the way to attend my birthday banquet. I naturally cannot treat you unfairly. I haven't had time to ask, how is your father doing recently?"

Ye Hengjing nodded slightly and replied with a smile: "Father is fine, Your Majesty, please rest assured that everyone is doing well. Aunt asked me to tell you a message. She is living a happy life now, so you don't have to worry."

Ye Hengjing is a smart man. Xiao Chenyu's words just now seemed to be a greeting to his father, but in fact he was only concerned about how his sister was doing in Weiyuan Kingdom.

His aunt had a gentle personality and had always treated him well, so Ye Hengjing was naturally willing to help her pass on the message and reassure her relatives.

Xiao Chenyu smiled when he heard this. He had a good eye for people, and Ye Hengjing really understood what he meant.

Xiao Chenyu hasn't seen his cousin for more than ten years. Now, hearing that she is doing well, he feels greatly comforted.

"I am relieved that my cousin is doing well. Please take a seat first. Don't be restrained."

Ye Hengjing nodded upon hearing this and said respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

After the envoys from Weiyuan State took their seats, the next to appear was the Dongyuan State.

Compared with Weiyuan Kingdom, Dongyuan Kingdom is even smaller and its strength in all aspects is not as good as Weiyuan Kingdom.

Therefore, compared with Weiyuan Kingdom, Dongyuan Kingdom’s attitude towards Xiao Chenyu is more respectful. After all, the strength of Da Qi Kingdom is undoubtedly above theirs.

The one walking in front was a young man about twenty years old, who should be the prince of Dongyuan Kingdom.

But there was a young girl next to him, who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old. She seemed to be very curious about everything here and was looking around as she walked.

Even though he had come in front of Xiao Chenyu, he showed no fear at all and his expression remained calm.

The girl was wearing a red and white dress, her big watery eyes were very lively, and she seemed to be a lively person in her daily life.

The young man spoke first, "The Second Prince of Dongyuan, Xu Zhenjie, and Princess Xu Mengfei of Dongyuan congratulate your majesty on your birthday. We wish your majesty good health and a long life. We wish the Great Qi Kingdom prosperity and peace. We also wish the two countries to be harmonious neighbors and be as close as one family."

After Xu Zhenjie said this, everyone understood that the person coming from Dongyuan Kingdom this time was not only the prince, but also the princess.

At Xu Zhenjie's signal, Xu Mengfei also spoke.

"Princess Xu Mengfei of Dongyuan Kingdom greets His Majesty and His Majesty the Queen, and wishes His Majesty good health."

Xiao Chenyu was in a good mood after receiving the blessings from the brother and sister.

"Okay! Then I will borrow your good words. I originally thought that only the prince of Dongyuan Kingdom was here, but I didn't expect that the princess is here too. I feel deeply honored. The princess looks lively, but she seems a little restrained in this palace. Princess, don't worry, just be at ease."

Xu Zhenjie smiled and replied, "Your Majesty, you are too polite. Our two countries have always maintained friendly relations. We came here to celebrate your birthday. I have never been far away from home and I am very curious about everything outside. When I heard that you were here to celebrate your birthday, I took the initiative to ask to go with you. It is inevitable that I am a little nervous when meeting your Majesty for the first time. I am sorry to make you laugh."

"Hahaha, no problem. The princess is about the same age as my daughters. I look at her like my own daughters and find her very cute. Please don't be restrained and take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lin Qingyao had been observing Xu Mengfei, and for some reason she always felt that she was not as well-behaved as she looked.

Although she had just said one sentence, it didn't sound like anything was wrong.

But her big eyes were rolling around, and she had been observing everyone present since she entered the door.

Somehow, Lin Qingyao always felt a little uneasy, fearing that this princess might say something shocking at any time.

Jamel Xiao beside him noticed that something was wrong with Lin Qingyao, and asked with concern: "What's wrong, Yao'er, what are you thinking about? Your brows are all furrowed together."

Lin Qingyao told Jamel Xiao about her concerns, and Jamel Xiao just smiled.

"Madam, you are worrying too much. Today is our father's birthday. What can she do in front of envoys from various countries? Dongyuan Country wants to maintain a good relationship with us. As a princess, she should understand this. Don't worry, she won't do anything out of line."

Although Lin Qingyao felt that what Jamel Xiao said made sense, she still couldn't feel at ease.

Lin Qingyao could only sigh, "I hope I'm overthinking it."

Envoys from various countries took their seats and the banquet officially began.

During the banquet, everyone clinked glasses and enjoyed singing and dancing together, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

After three rounds of drinks, Xu Mengfei stood up and bowed to Xiao Chenyu.

When Lin Qingyao saw Xu Mengfei stand up, she felt that what she was worried about was about to happen.

"Your Majesty, to celebrate your birthday, I have prepared a dance for you. I hope you will like it."

Xiao Chenyu was somewhat surprised when he heard this. He did not expect that the princess of Dongyuan Kingdom came prepared.

Since the other party has made preparations, Xiao Chenyu naturally cannot refuse this kindness, and said with a smile: "Princess, since you are so thoughtful, I will wait and see."

Xu Mengfei nodded upon hearing this, "Your Majesty, please allow me to prepare."

Xiao Chenyu nodded, and after getting permission, Xu Mengfei bowed and retreated.

But in just a moment, beautiful music sounded in the hall, and Xu Mengfei made a grand appearance surrounded by a group of dancers.

Xu Mengfei, wearing a red dress, danced gracefully on the musical notes.

The girl has a graceful figure, curved eyebrows and eyes, and she smiles charmingly from time to time, like a warm flame surrounding everyone.

Unlike her expressionless face just now, Xu Mengfei was smiling brightly at this moment, and her every frown and smile touched everyone's heart.

As soon as the dance was over, warm applause and cheers rang out in the hall, and everyone was amazed at Xu Mengfei's dancing.

When dancing, Xu Mengfei seemed like a completely different person, bright, warm and charming.

"Okay, okay. Princess, this dance really makes me feel happy. What do you think, Queen?"

Zhou Menglin smiled when she heard this and agreed, "Your Majesty is right. The princess's dance makes people feel better. She must have practiced for a long time for today, right? She is really thoughtful."

Xu Mengfei responded respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is all to celebrate your Majesty's birthday. As long as your Majesty likes it, it's all worth it."

Xiao Chenyu was in a good mood after hearing this, and said with a smile: "Princess, you are so thoughtful, so I have to show my appreciation. But after thinking about it, I feel that no matter what I give, it is not enough to express my gratitude. How about this, Princess, you can tell me what you want or wish for, and I will satisfy you today."
