The Qin Palace is located in the center of the capital of Qin, surrounded by city walls and with a deep and wide moat, just like a city within a city.
Queen Xiang Jing's birthday banquet was held in the Yixiang Hall in the palace.
The royal seats of Emperor Qin Xuanlong and Queen Xiang Jing were located in the north of the palace opposite the main gate.
There were sixty seats on each side, facing the vast space like a square in the center of the palace.
The seats were divided into two rows, front and back, and each seat could seat ten people.
The front seats were occupied by the royal family, nobles and ministers, while the back seats were occupied by Wang Qing's family members and particularly distinguished warriors and generals.
The closer one is to the Emperor of Qin at the banquet, the higher one's status becomes.
The seats of Prince Yan Yuanji and Prince Qi Yan Yuanzong are located at the second seat on the left and the second seat on the right respectively.
This also shows their transcendent status among the princes.
After all the guests entered the palace, they sat down at their own banquets.
They whispered to each other while talking and did not dare to make any noise.
The atmosphere was tense and serious.
Although I am the King Ping of Dakang, I am not included in the Queen's invitation, so I can only stand behind Yan Yuanzong.
Yan Yuanzong respects and fears his mother.
I hope He was able to win the favor of his mother through the birthday banquet and no longer forced himself to get involved in the battles in the palace.
Sun Sanfen's medicine was indeed effective.
My lower body no longer hurts.
After a period of ice application, the edema has also subsided a lot, and it will not hinder my actions at this time.
King Yan Yuanzong of Qi turned around and whispered to me: "When my mother comes out, you will watch her carefully, and then I will ask Eunuch Chen to take you to the side hall to paint.
I agreed.
At this time, the bell rang, reminding everyone to take their seats.
Nearly a thousand royal relatives, ministers and dignitaries were seated at the table one after another.
More than a hundred people were surging on both sides of the table.
The grand palace dinner was about to begin.
At this time, there was a commotion near the door.
I looked up and saw a beautiful woman in palace clothes, surrounded by several beautiful maids, walking in.
The woman was wearing a silk robe with a pendant on it.
Countless shining pearls, brilliant and brilliant.
There are two crystal clear pearls in the earrings, and a golden hairpin hangs across the cloud-like bun, shining brightly.
The clothes are decorated with pearls, the silk skirt is light and thin, and the delicate body exudes a rich fragrance.
Her face is extremely beautiful, her eyebrows are picturesque, her tender skin is white and rosy, and she is extremely attractive.
I was secretly amazed at who else it was if it wasn't the Ninth Princess Yan Lin.
I didn't expect that this pervert princess would be so beautiful despite being carefully dressed up, and her whole body would be full of femininity.
Yan Lin seemed to have forgotten her unhappiness during the day, and greeted all the royal brothers with a smile.
When she turned her eyes in my direction, she suddenly became cold, with a look of shame and anger in her eyes.
I laughed secretly in my heart, I squeezed her hard under the water today, I think she should still be in pain now.
Naturally, I am not afraid of her now.
No matter how savage Yan Lin is, she would not dare to do anything to me in front of the princes and nobles.
Unfortunately, Yan Lin was assigned a seat with Qi Wang Yan Yuanzong.
It seems that I have to be careful to prevent her from causing trouble to me again.
Although Yan Yuanzong and Yan Lin were not born from the same mother, he had always loved Yan Lin extremely.
He had never been scolded as harshly as today.
He took the initiative to get up and come to Yan Lin's side.
Yan Lin must still be...
I remember the scolding he had given me during the day.

The circles in my eyes were red and I was about to burst into tears: "I'm going to sit where the eldest brother is."
I knew as soon as I heard she was bluffing.
Yan Yuanzong smiled and said: "You ghost girl is really angry with Brother Qi.
Come and sit down.
I will bring you two glasses of wine later as an apology."
Yan Lin stared at me fiercely and then stood in front of Yan Yuanzong.
Sit next to me.
I have long known about Yan Lin’s life experience from biographies.
Her mother was Concubine Qin Shu, also a famous beauty.
She died of a violent illness ten years ago.
According to folk rumors, Queen Xiang Jing hated her for competing with her for favor, so she killed her.
Poison, but judging from the harmonious relationship between Yan Lin and Yan Yuanzong, she should not be aware of this rumor.
At this time, the bells in the hall rang softly, and the sound of silk and bamboo sounded leisurely.
A group of ceremonial bands walked lightly, playing and blowing.
They came in first, then dispersed to both sides and stood still, continuing to play music.
Everyone withdrew their gaze and looked towards the main entrance.
Surrounded by all the concubines, Qin Xuanlong Emperor Yan Yuan and Queen Xiang Jing, who were in their fifties, walked into the palace hand in hand, followed by dozens of personal guards, half of whom went around to the space behind the banquet to stand guard.
The remaining half followed Emperor Xuanlong towards the chairman at the end of the hall.
This was the first time I saw the world-famous Emperor Xuanlong.
He was of medium height, with a broad forehead, dull eyes, a beard growing under his chin, and gray hair on his temples.
With the support of Empress Jing, he stepped onto the chairman's chair tremblingly. , I never expected that Emperor Xuande, who was only fifty-three years old, looked like an old man.
Yan Yuanzong whispered: "Look carefully."
Only then did I remember my main task.
I turned my eyes to Queen Xiang Jing and couldn't help but feel moved in my heart.
I saw that she had eyebrows like spring mountains and eyes like autumn water.
She was beautiful and bright, but her expression was dignified and she had an awe-inspiring and inviolable nobility.
Graceful and luxurious, with calm eyes and no fear, women like this type tend to have strong personalities and strong opinions.
Xiang Jing has a slender figure, and she seems to be taller when standing next to Emperor Xuanlong, who is of medium height.
Her luxurious palace clothes must hide a pair of slender legs.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Jing is so young, she looks like she is only in her twenties.
She looks more attractive and mature than the beauties I've seen before.
The concubines sat in the two seats at the back according to their status, and guards guarded the sides and rear respectively.
Although Emperor Xuanlong's appearance was large, the majesty of an overlord could no longer be seen from his body.
Everyone waited for them to sit down and chanted congratulations in unison.
The toasting ceremony in Qin Palace was no different from that in Dakang.
I spent more time looking at Queen Xiang Jing of Qin attentively.
I suddenly found that I couldn't help but feel a certain emotion when facing such a mature beauty.
I remember that I had this kind of emotion when I first saw Murong Yanyan, but I didn't know the origin of this feeling at that time.
Now that I see her When it came to Xiang Jing, this feeling became stronger and stronger, maybe it was related to the latent Oedipus complex in my heart.
I finally looked away, turned around and saw Yan Lin's eyes that were almost filled with bitterness and hatred.
I smiled lightly.
Facing such a love rival, I was really helpless.
Yan Yuanzong could not be unaware of Yan Lin's love for Yao Ru.
Was his real purpose in rewarding Yao Ru to me out of love or hatred for Yan Lin?
Yan Yuanzong and Yan Lin were still chatting and laughing, and I couldn't see anything unusual on the surface.

Maybe Yan Yuanzong gave Yaoru to me in order to end Yan Lin's abnormal love for Yaoru as soon as possible.
Eunuch Chen had prepared pens, inks, paper and inkstones and invited me to go to the side hall.
When I was about to leave, I heard Emperor Xuanlong cough twice and said: "Today is the Queen's birthday, what gifts have you children prepared?"
Yan Yuanzong's expression also changed slightly.
He never expected that his father would actually bring up this matter at the beginning of the banquet.
Seeing the princes showing off their gifts one by one, beads of sweat broke out on his forehead in embarrassment.
Yan Lin also walked towards the queen with a jewelry box.
She looked at Prince Qi in surprise and said, "Brother Seven.
You won’t go with me” Empress Qin Xiang Jing's eyes were always on King Qi.
In her mind, the most important thing was naturally King Qi's gift.
Seeing other princes vying to express themselves, only King Qi still sat there.
A trace of displeasure flashed across Queen Jing's beautiful eyes,
Emperor Xuanlong saw all the subtle changes in his beloved wife's expression and said with a smile: "Yuanzong, what have you prepared for your mother?"
King Qi stood up in a hurry and replied bravely: "My son, I have prepared a portrait for my mother."
"Oh" Emperor Xuanlong and Empress Jing looked at each other, both eyes showing joy.
Emperor Xuanlong said: "If that's the case, why don't you present it?"
Yan Yuanzong said awkwardly: "My son is not ready yet."
His words caused all the princes to burst into laughter.
Queen Jing's pretty face turned slightly red, obviously she was so angry that she had lost face in front of so many royals.
Yan Yuanzong clenched his fists hard.
The scene in front of me was so familiar to me.
The relentless intrigue between princes is the same in any country.
I whispered behind Yan Yuanzong: "Your Highness King Qi, Yinkong is willing to paint the queen's portrait on the spot."
A trace of doubt flashed in Yan Yuanzong's eyes.
He had not really seen my painting skills, and my suggestion was reflected in his It seems to be quite bold.
Queen Jing's beautiful eyes swept across the crowd with a smile, and the entire hall suddenly returned to silence.
Everyone knew who Queen Jing was, and if she caught herself openly mocking King Qi, she would definitely not end up well.
Yan Yuanzong finally made up his mind and said loudly: "My mother has specially invited a painter to paint for you on the spot."
A smile appeared on Queen Jing's pretty face.
What she wanted most was to see her son stand out in front of everyone, and to be more popular than all the princes.
Empress Jing nodded and said, "It's so rare that you show such filial piety that you let the painter paint on the spot in this palace."
