"What are you thinking about?"
While meditating, Jiang Ling felt a clear touch on his face, looking back: "I'm thinking about the fifth prince of Beimang..."
"Don't worry, Gu won't let him have a chance to do anything." Xiao Shengyun's face was stern.
"It's not this, Your Highness, he came to Daqi, if something happens, will it affect His Highness?" Jiang Ling took her hands off her face.
This was the first time he said such words, and his face was a little apprehensive. Xiao Shengyun sized him up for a while, his eyes complicated.
Jiang Ling looked at him and muttered: "They have hurt His Highness, I don't want to..."
"No need to explain," Xiao Chengyun pressed Jiang Ling's lips with his index finger, "Ling'er is right. The Fifth Prince's visit to Daqi is our chance. Although Bei Mang was sent back, as long as it exists for a day, it will be a great opportunity for Daqi." create a threat……"
Xiao Shengyun himself did not intend to let the fifth prince of Beimang return to Beimang intact.
He came to Daqi, maybe he wanted to take the opportunity to do something, he came, so why not their opportunity?
Usually, the fifth prince hides in the king's land of Beimang, which is not easy to sneak into. Now that he has arrived in Daqi, if he can catch him, he might be able to find out the location and layout of the king's land. Reduced a lot of passive.
The fifth prince took a sip of wine and suddenly felt a chill. He looked around and saw nothing wrong.
Emperor Chongming came late, his legs were still not healed, so Eunuch Qian pushed him here.
The hall fell silent instantly.
When Emperor Chongming was pushed to a high place, everyone stood up and saluted.
Jiang Ling watched Emperor Chongming quietly for a while between salutes, and after a while, Emperor Chongming's aging became more and more obvious. Jiang Ling could feel the withered breath coming from him, indicating that this person was about to die.
What happened successively during this period had a great impact on Emperor Chongming.
After returning to her seat, Jiang Ling lowered her head slightly. After Emperor Chongming said something, the birthday banquet officially began.
Palace people file in and present delicious food.
Jiang Ling's attention was immediately attracted by the food on the table.
Every dish is exquisitely prepared, like a handicraft, and the details reflect the spirit of a great country.
The envoys of the small country exclaimed in a low voice, and all kinds of praises were heard endlessly, and Emperor Chongming smiled a little.
Jiang Ling stretched out her chopsticks, picked up a dish, and tasted it. Not only was it exquisite in appearance, but it also tasted good.
He raised his eyes to look at Xiao Chengyun, the man was sitting upright, except for the occasional sip of wine, he rarely moved his chopsticks.
Jiang Ling rolled her eyes, picked up a piece of meat, and fed it to Xiao Shengyun's mouth: "Your Highness, try it, it's delicious."
Facing the meat that appeared on his lips unexpectedly, Xiao Shengyun gently opened his thin lips and ate it.
Jiang Ling ate a little by herself, and fed Xiao Shengyun a little in between, which was quite fun.
King Liu was the eldest son of Emperor Chongming, and he sat very close to Jiang Ling and the others. It was the first time he saw the two of them alone at a banquet, and he was a little surprised.
After thinking about it, it was the same when they went to the palace as guests, so it wasn't surprising.
No matter how cold the prince is to outsiders, he will always be different to those he likes.
The ministers of the DPRK and China had seen the way the two got along at the banquet, and they were not as shocked as the first time. Those vassal kings and envoys from other countries who had never seen them were really surprised.
For the vassal kings, they have learned the methods of the prince long ago, and they never imagined that one day they will see the prince like this. For the envoys of other countries, what they have heard most is how brave the prince was when he fought against Beimang, and what methods he used. Ruthless, seeing this scene, I couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
The main reason is that they are too separated from the prince in their impression.
Jiang Ling sensed Ruoyou's seemingly non-existent sizing eyes, and he frowned slightly: "Your Highness, what are they looking at?"
Jiang Ling looked in the direction where she felt the eyes. Those people had already lowered their heads, not daring to show it in front of Jiang Ling and the prince.
"Don't worry about it." Xiao Chengyun pinched Jiang Ling's chin, making people turn their heads to look at him.
"Okay." Jiang Ling is not interested in what these people are thinking, let them watch if they want to, just to see how good the relationship between him and the prince is, so as not to make some bad ideas.
After the banquet went on for a while, it was time to give gifts.
As the prince, the things Xiao Shengyun sent were listed first.
Emperor Chongming was obviously very satisfied, and the smile on his face deepened.
After the crown prince came the princes, and what the king prepared was a generous gift, which was priceless, but the pearls and jades from the crown prince were in front, which was a bit inferior.
After Cheng Wang, is Xuan Wang.
Jiang Ling propped up her chin, staring at the usher.
"what?"
Until the gift list was read, Jiang Ling didn't hear the auspicious stone in the original book that made King Xuan stand out.
However, the development of this world has long deviated from the plot of the original book, Jiang Ling was only surprised for a moment, and then forgot about it.
He lost interest in continuing to listen, and lowered his head to struggle with the delicious food in front of him.
In addition to the main course, there are also various snacks in front of the two of them. These dishes and snacks are only made during big banquets, and they are not usually eaten.
Until the sound of exclamation came, Jiang Ling raised her head, and saw a tall and strange stone standing in the hall.
That strange stone was very big, different from the ones Jiang Ling had seen in the auction house. This strange stone was one piece, like a golden dragon breaking through the clouds and mist, protruding its dragon's head.
There were exclamations one after another in the hall.
"This is a miracle!"
"It is my great fortune that such a miracle appeared in Daqi!"
Emperor Chongming also looked at the strange stone in the temple with a look of surprise. If he was not unable to walk, he might come down directly to have a look and touch it.
Jiang Ling was also very curious about this stone, so he propped himself up and leaned forward slightly.Xiao Shengyun's arm suddenly appeared, stretched across his waist, and bound him.
"Your Highness, is this...?"
"It's from the Tenth Prince." Knowing what Jiang Ling wanted to ask, Xiao Chengyun had already given the answer before he could finish speaking.
Looking at the lifelike dragon-shaped stone in the palace, Jiang Ling was dumbfounded. He never expected that after King Xuan gave up sending auspiciousness, another prince would send auspiciousness at the same time, achieving the same effect as the original book.
He shifted his gaze and looked at Emperor Chongming who was sitting at the highest place.
Sure enough, Emperor Chongming couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Okay! Old Ten has a heart!"
The strange stone was personally delivered to the palace by the Tenth Prince. He arched his hands, and when he smiled, a canine tooth appeared on his lips: "It's so auspicious, only the royal father deserves to have it in this world."
His voice was youthful, and there was admiration for Emperor Chongming in his eyes. The words he said in such a posture were very useful to Emperor Chongming.
The process was the same as when Jiang Ling saw the strange stone at the auction house last time. The Tenth Prince told a plausible story to draw out the origin of the strange stone. Whether it is true or not, whether others believe it or not, as long as Emperor Chongming believes it, it will not be in vain. Such a scheming.
Jiang Ling looked around and found that most people had the same reaction as Emperor Chongming. They seemed to believe in this kind of "auspiciousness" and felt that the existence of "auspiciousness" was God's affirmation of Emperor Chongming, and that Daqi would definitely be better in the future.
On the other hand, the envoys from other small countries did not look very good.
Especially the Beiman envoy, the fifth prince couldn't hide the gloom in his eyes.
Jiang Ling knew why the people from Beimang were like this. Beimang and Daqi had always had a hostile relationship, and the stronger Daqi was, the more unfavorable it was to Beimang.
The last turn is the envoys.
Beimang was the first.
Beimang came here this time, in addition to celebrating his birthday, he also came to appease Emperor Daqi's anger as a defeated country. They were born in the grasslands, and the compensation they gave was mostly cattle, sheep, horses, etc. Emperor Chongming lacked interest.
"In addition to these, as a token of sincerity, my father presented the most beautiful princess in Beimang to you, Emperor Daqi. I hope you like it."
After the words fell, the courtiers looked at each other, seeing the solemnity in each other's eyes.
It is not a strange thing for a small country to present beauty. Daqi's successive emperors have princesses from Xiaoxiao country in their harems, but it is the first time that Beimang sent someone here.
What the hell are they up to?
"Oh?" Emperor Chongming was not interested in Princess Beimang, and his tone was not fluctuating.
The fifth prince gave the followers behind him a wink, and the two followers walked towards the largest box in the center.
Everyone's eyes fell on the box following the actions of the two.
The box is opened.
A woman in a red exotic dress got up from the box.
The woman has a slender figure, her arms and waist are exposed, her complexion is fair, her facial features are thick, her body is covered with jewels, her pupils are a rare purple, and her frown and smile are touching people's hearts.
Jiang Ling was excited when he saw it, but suddenly his eyes fell into darkness. He grabbed Xiao Shengyun's hand covering his eyes: "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
There was a slight complaint in his tone.
"Ling'er likes it very much?" Xiao Shengyun didn't let go, but used his strength to hug her into his arms.
There was a sourness in his voice that he didn't realize.
"She's very beautiful." Jiang Ling blinked, her slender eyelashes swept across the man's palm like butterfly wings, bringing out bursts of itching.
"Well, Your Highness, although she is beautiful, in my heart, Your Highness will always be the prettiest, no one can compare to her."
My heart also felt itchy.
Letting go of her hand, Jiang Ling saw the light again.
He smiled and looked at the man: "Your Highness is jealous?"
"No." Xiao Shengyun refused to admit it, how could he be jealous for no reason because of a woman?
Jiang Ling saw the pale crimson color emerging from the man's earlobe, but she didn't break the man's insistence: "Since His Highness is not jealous, shall I continue watching?"
Xiao Shengyun pursed his lips, regretting for a moment.
Jiang Ling looked at the center of the hall again. The fifth prince, his attendants, and the big wooden box had disappeared, and only the woman in the red exotic dance dress stood in the center.
The sound of silk and bamboo sounds, and the woman dances with it.
All eyes are unconsciously attracted.
"Your Highness, do you think the emperor will bring her into the harem?" Jiang Ling pinched the man's fingers, her eyes still resting on the dancing woman.
"Perhaps." Xiao Shengyun replied casually.
He was the only one whose gaze never fell on the dancing woman for a moment, always watching Jiang Ling, like a giant dragon guarding a treasure, afraid that the treasure in his arms would disappear in the blink of an eye.
Beimang's dance is very different from Daqi's. Daqi's dance is softer, while Beimang's is more vigorous. The exotic style shown by the women in the dance firmly holds the hearts of the audience.
After the dance was over, the fifth prince stood up again.
"My younger sister has always admired His Majesty Daqi's demeanor. If His Majesty can keep her in the palace to relieve boredom occasionally, my younger sister will also be happy."
"It's my daughter's blessing to be able to dance for His Majesty every day." The woman bowed deeply, the enthusiasm in her eyes and the gesture of submission were irresistible.
The earlobe was pinched suddenly, Jiang Ling turned around, Xiao Shengyun was looking down at him.
The man's gaze was deep, like a treacherous bottomless ocean, as if some memory had been awakened, Jiang Ling's body trembled unconsciously.
While meditating, Jiang Ling felt a clear touch on his face, looking back: "I'm thinking about the fifth prince of Beimang..."
"Don't worry, Gu won't let him have a chance to do anything." Xiao Shengyun's face was stern.
"It's not this, Your Highness, he came to Daqi, if something happens, will it affect His Highness?" Jiang Ling took her hands off her face.
This was the first time he said such words, and his face was a little apprehensive. Xiao Shengyun sized him up for a while, his eyes complicated.
Jiang Ling looked at him and muttered: "They have hurt His Highness, I don't want to..."
"No need to explain," Xiao Chengyun pressed Jiang Ling's lips with his index finger, "Ling'er is right. The Fifth Prince's visit to Daqi is our chance. Although Bei Mang was sent back, as long as it exists for a day, it will be a great opportunity for Daqi." create a threat……"
Xiao Shengyun himself did not intend to let the fifth prince of Beimang return to Beimang intact.
He came to Daqi, maybe he wanted to take the opportunity to do something, he came, so why not their opportunity?
Usually, the fifth prince hides in the king's land of Beimang, which is not easy to sneak into. Now that he has arrived in Daqi, if he can catch him, he might be able to find out the location and layout of the king's land. Reduced a lot of passive.
