Return of the Princess: The Rebirth of Lafayette

Chapter 45 Xiao Jian enters the palace to attend the banquet

The three of them were talking and laughing along the way. In order to please his uncle, Yongqi specially picked a peerless sword from his private treasury and waited at Shufangzhai early.

"Brother, I will introduce you to four great talents and two great beauties in a moment. They are really interesting."

Yong Qi could hear Xiao Yanzi's joyful voice from a long distance away. He hid the sword behind his back and went out to greet them.

Xiao Jian saw that Yong Qi was there, his eyes paused, and he saluted him respectfully, "Xiao Jian meets the fifth elder brother."

Yong Qi quickly turned sideways and bowed to her uncle. She still didn't want to marry a wife. "Brother, we are all a family. Just call me Yong Qi."

Xiao Jian's mouth twitched, he really knows how to take advantage, he hasn't even written his horoscope yet, who should he call eldest brother, who is his family.

Yongqi accidentally exposed the sword hidden behind his back to others and lowered his head in embarrassment.

Xiao Yanzi asked in confusion, "Yongqi, what are you doing with a sword?"

Yong Qi touched the back of his head. He had a noble status and only had others compliment him. He didn't know how to please others, so he forced it into Xiao Jian's hands.

"Brother, this is a sword I found by chance. How can you travel around the world without a sword that you like in your hand? I will borrow flowers to offer to Buddha today."

"Wow, brother, this sword matches you really well. Just accept it first. I want to thank you on my brother's behalf, Yongqi."

Xiao Yanzi saw the embarrassment in Yongqi's eyes and was very moved, so the two became husband and wife.

Xiao Jian reached out and flicked her forehead, "Girls are outgoing."

"Yongqi, thank you, I will treat this sword kindly."

"Brother, as long as you like it." Yong Qi was very happy when she saw how much he couldn't put it down.

Mingyue ran out of the house and shouted anxiously, "My dear princesses, come and change your clothes. The banquet is about to begin. You two are the protagonists of the banquet today."

"I know, I'll be here soon." Little Yanzi pulled Ziwei and ran in. During this time, Little Yanzi finally got used to wearing the bottom of the flower pot. Now it's no problem for her to run around the Forbidden City twice.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yanzi and Ziwei were finally dressed up. They did not put on any makeup. Xiao Yanzi was dressed in a red printed flag outfit. There were not too many jewelry on the flag head. Her big eyes were eye-catching.

Ziwei is wearing a blue and white Ruyi flag outfit, which makes her look fresh and refined, clean and elegant.

Yong Qi's eyes widened and he blinked suddenly. He couldn't believe that this was the little swallow. It was so beautiful.

Xiao Jian saw that he was so impudent and coughed slightly. Seeing that he still didn't restrain himself, he stepped on him hard.

Yong Qi came to her senses immediately after feeling the pain, and glanced at Xiao Jian awkwardly, only then did she realize that she had just been obsessed with it.

"Yongqi, how are you? Does it look good?" Xiao Yanzi turned around happily and looked at him with bright eyes, waiting for him to praise her.

Yong Qi gave a thumbs up and did not hesitate to praise her, "You look good. I want to hide you so that others don't see you."

However, he didn't dare to get too carried away. After all, his uncle was present and he had to be careful. Normally, he would have joined in.

Ziwei lowered her head and glanced at her clothes, not knowing whether Erkang liked it or not.

Xiao Jian turned his head, his eyes were a little gloomy, he exhaled, and suppressed the hatred in his heart. Today was a good day for his sister, and he couldn't ruin her good mood.

Several people arrived at Kunning Palace with their own thoughts, and found that the banquet had not started yet, so they went to visit the Queen first.

In the room, the queen whispered to the emperor, "Your Majesty, I have sent clothes and jewelry to the two Princesses. They will surely amaze everyone today."

During these days, the emperor stayed in the queen's palace many times, and the tense relationship between the two eased a lot. The queen's complexion also became much better after the yin and yang were harmonized, and she looked several years younger.

The emperor was very satisfied when he saw that the queen was so understanding and said, "Queen, you have taken the trouble. I will accompany you tonight."

The concubine on the side looked a little lonely. There was only one emperor, so he favored the queen, so he naturally turned cold to the concubine.

The queen stood up and walked to the concubine, and gently took her hand, "Your Majesty, I see that your sister's face is a little bad. Why don't you go to Yanxi Palace to accompany her tonight? There will be more work in the future." Accompany me as a concubine."

Your concubine was stunned and looked at the queen in disbelief. Is this the queen she knew? How could she give up the emperor to her? Her heart was filled with ripples, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

The emperor then took a serious look at your concubine and found that her complexion was indeed not very good, "My dear concubine, why don't you ask an imperial doctor to come over and take a look at you."

Your concubine shook her head. She knew her own body best. The emperor seldom set foot in the Yanxi Palace these days. She waited night after night and had to take care of the children during the day. It was strange that her complexion could be better.

"I would like to thank you, Your Majesty, and my sister for your concern. I guess it's a bit tiring to take care of little Princess on weekdays, so I'll be fine with a few days of rest."

The emperor looked at the queen apologetically and said, "Queen, I will go to see your concubine tonight and then come back to accompany you in a few days."

Although the queen felt a little reluctant to give up, as the master of the middle palace, she could not be jealous. It was her duty to ensure the peace of the harem.

"My sister's health is important. Your Majesty, please stay with your concubine for a few more days. When she is well, you can come and see me."

As soon as the queen's words came out, the concubine felt sour and swollen in her heart. She didn't expect that she was quite a kind person, and so was the emperor. She sighed in her heart that the queen was worthy of being the mother of a country.

While the three of them were talking, Xiao Yanzi and the others walked in.

"My sons (daughters) see the emperor's Ama, the emperor's mother, and your concubine."

Xiao Jian's eyes were like a deep lake, flowing with calmness and wildness, staring at the middle-aged man sitting at the top. This was the emperor, his father-killing enemy. His emotions were not exposed at all, and he saluted respectfully.

"Xiao Jian meets the emperor, the queen, and your concubine."

"Are you Xiao Yanzi's brother? Xiao Jian, you have a good name, you are free and unrestrained, and your whole person is like a sharp sword unsheathed."

Because of Xiao Yanzi, the emperor had a good attitude towards Xiao Jian and praised him greatly.

"Back to the emperor, I am Xiao Yanzi's brother." Xiao Jian's appearance of neither being humble nor arrogant made the emperor very satisfied.

The queen heard Xiao Yanzi mention Xiao Jian and knew that he was a strong martial artist. She had the idea of ​​​​promoting him and took the opportunity to build momentum for him in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Yanzi's brother has a completely different personality from Xiao Yanzi. He looks much calmer."

Your concubine has just inherited the benefits of the queen. She has worked with the queen for many years. Sometimes, with a look or a word, she knows what the other person is going to do, and she will immediately speak with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I think the temperaments of Xiao Jian and Erkang are somewhat similar. At first glance, I thought it was Erkang who came."

What your concubine said was very level, putting Xiao Jian on the same level as Erkang.
