Chapter 1348 - 1348: Showing His Edge
Then, she followed the two gazes, but the person retracted their gazes.
Lin Yuelan’s sharp eyes swept across the people present. She saw that everyone seemed to be very interested in the fruits on the table. They did not notice the gaze that was shot at her just now.
Lin Yuelan raised her eyebrows, and her lips curled up slightly. This banquet seemed to be very interesting!
Since those two gazes were filled with jealousy, they would definitely give themselves away after a moment. She just didn’t know what the person was jealous of.
The guests arrived one after another, and the banquet officially began at three in the afternoon.
“The emperor has arrived. The empress has arrived! “The eunuch’s sharp voice suddenly sounded in the bustling venue. Then, the venue fell silent.
“Long live our emperor!” Everyone was shouting.
Amidst the shouts, some were kneeling, some were half-kneeling, and some were half-bowing.
Of course, besides the servants, there were also the ministers and their families of the imperial court of the Longyan Kingdom. Those who were half-kneeling were the descendants of the royal family and the other envoys of the Black Clouds Kingdom. Those who were half-kneeling were obviously the second prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom, Xiao Jingrui, and the sixth princess, Xiao Jingyu.
However, the person who stood out among them was Lin Yuelan.
She was half-bowing to welcome the Emperor.
Other than the locals who knew about it, the people from the foreign diplomatic missions were confused.
Who was this woman?
How could she not kneel in front of the monarch?
However, before they could express their doubts, Yuwen Longyan took Empress Chen’s hand and sat in his own seat.
The people following behind were the two great concubines, Consort Liu De and Consort Wang Shu.
The Empress wore a red long-sleeved dress with a shawl, a red silk dress, a red hairpin, and a special bun decorated with dragons and phoenixes. The dress was embroidered with golden dragon and phoenix patterns, and she wore a crown of dragon and phoenix beads on her head, showing her majesty.
Consort Liu De was wrapped in a light pink dress and draped in purple gauze. The pleated skirt was more than three feet long, making her walk graceful and gentle. Consort Liu De looked solemn but not without losing her charm.
Consort Wang Shu was wearing a light white robe with a light pink tulle draped over her shoulders. She wore a thin purple robe, a golden fork on her head, and a jade bracelet on her delicate hand. With a little makeup, she looked very solemn, noble, and elegant!
The appearance of the Emperor and the other two women made the eyes of the foreign diplomatic mission light up. These women were quite old, but each of them had their own merits and had a unique charm.
It seemed that this emperor really knew how to enjoy life. One had to know that this old emperor was already over sixty years old.
Yuwen Longyan had the majesty of an emperor as he laughed loudly.” Everyone, please rise!”
Everyone stood up one after another.
Then, Yuwen Longyan smiled and said,” On behalf of the Longyan Country, I welcome all the envoys. Please take a seat!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty of the Longyan Country!’
The envoys from various countries sat down one after another.
“Envoys, you must eat, drink, and play well in the Longyan Kingdom!” Yuwen Longyan sat on the chair and said happily.
This was Lin Yuelan’s catchphrase that he had learned in Taoyuan Village.
Eat well, drink well, and play well?
The envoys were instantly confused.
These people were clearly here to increase their friendship with the country and communicate with each other for the purpose of marriage. However, they were in a foreign country.
They would always be unable to predict the motives and intentions of other countries. Therefore, it could be said that they were always in danger.
How could they eat, drink, and play well like this?
Yuwen Longyan didn’t care what the envoys thought. He ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to pour wine for the guests who had come from afar!
After everyone took their seats, Xiao Heshui of the Dragon Country asked curiously, “Your Majesty, are these fruits the specialties of your kingdom?” He pointed at the fruits on the table and asked.
Yuwen Longyan smiled.” Ninth Prince, that’s right. This is a specialty of my kingdom. These things can only grow in a specific place in my kingdom.” His tone was very proud..
