Chapter 149: Banquet of Hundred Palaces
It seemed that the Tengyun Beast couldn't stand Bai Chen's arrogance either. It flapped its huge wings, and immediately set off a gust of violent wind on the street.
Seeing this situation, the onlookers were so startled that they hugged their heads and fled, for fear that they would be caught by the ferocious beast in front of them on a whim.
On the huge back of Tengyun Beast, Chen Xun stood proudly, and smiled faintly at Lin Mengyao and Bai Chen: "Come on, you two."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Still only Lin Mengyao answered.
When he came to Tengyun Beast, he was closer to Han Shi with the scarred face. Bai Chen met his eyes with different expressions on his face.
Hmph, let me see if your kid can survive today!
With an angry curse in his heart, Han Shi seemed to be in a better mood than Bai Chen. He whipped the Tengyun Beast with a whip. As if it had been instructed by its master, it flapped its huge wings and flew up to hundreds of miles in the blink of an eye. m altitude.
All the way to the north, the mountains and rivers are like beans, and the rivers are like silk.
The rising sun shone on the four of them, but it didn't bring them the slightest warmth.
"Your Highness, I have only heard about the banquet of the Hundred Palaces, but I have never seen it in person. I don't know what etiquette needs to be paid attention to in this famous imperial banquet?" Lin Meng looked down on the giant beast. Yao, suddenly said respectfully to Chen Xun.
Seeing her respectful attitude towards Chen Xun, Bai Chen couldn't help but feel angry.
This silly girl is loyal to the royal family, but she has to be framed by the prince, what's the reason?
No matter what, if any unexpected situation happened today, he would block it for this silly girl!
Facing Lin Mengyao's question, Han Shi's eyes clearly flashed a chill, while Chen Xun was calm and calm as usual: "You don't need to worry too much, this is just a home-cooked banquet for the royal family of the barren country. Fan brought you here because I hope you can have more contact with them, after all, the Manhuang Kingdom and our Fengyan Dynasty have been friends for generations."
"Your Majesty's instruction, minister, please remember it!" Lin Mengyao yelled sonorously, with an aura no less than that of ordinary men.
Nodding lightly, Chen Xun looked into the distant eyes, especially calm.
Maicheng is only a hundred miles away from Mandu, with flying mounts as a means of transportation, within three hours, they saw the majestic capital.
Arriving outside the city gate, a large number of troops had already set up their formations, and the leading general waited with solemn eyes, and hurriedly got off his horse to greet him.
After exchanging pleasantries, the four people in the carriage maintained an atmosphere of silence throughout the swaying journey.
Lin Mengyao and Bai Chen didn't know anything about the Banquet of the Hundred Palaces. As the prince, Chen Xun actually didn't mention it. Even if Lin Mengyao didn't care, Bai Chen felt even more resentful towards this unpredictable prince.
Thinking of the conversation he eavesdropped on last night, Bai Chen couldn't help his chest twitching.
What about the prince?
Anyone who dares to touch Mengyao, he will not let go!
Through the curtain of the car, Bai Chen and others saw the streets of the capital city, which were a bit wider than Maicheng, and the flow of people was also a bit crowded.
At a certain moment, Bai Chen's gaze met Chen Xun's face inadvertently, and the two looked at each other and smiled, the smile was so hypocritical.
A courtyard in the imperial city was already full of people. Those concubines were wearing phoenix crowns and gorgeous skirts. They had goosebumps all over their bodies, and they gritted their teeth. show.
A concubine sits at a table, beside them, there are their own heirs, both male and female, all well-dressed and handsome.
At the front of the courtyard, on a tiger-skin imperial chair, a middle-aged man was sitting leaning against him. His face was full of contentment and domineering arrogance.
He, the emperor of the wild country, appealed to Yan Bo.
At this time, the four people headed by Chen Xun, under the personal guidance of Prince Lie, finally appeared at the arch of the courtyard under the eyes of everyone.
The arrival of these four people made the noisy atmosphere quiet, and everyone looked in awe.
Walking steadily, all the way to the front of Yan Bo, Chen Xun's plain face showed a refreshing smile of a long-time best friend: "Fengyan Dynasty, Chen Xun, I have seen Your Majesty!"
"Hahahaha! No need to be too polite, my nephew, I haven't seen you for a few years, but I miss you very much!" Calling Yan Bo, who is not as arrogant as the emperor known by the world, hurriedly got off the tiger chair and came He came to Chen Xun's side and grabbed his hands.
"Thanks to His Majesty's great love, little nephew, fear."
"Hey~? What kind words are you talking about! Today is nothing more than an ordinary family banquet, nephew, don't care about those red tapes, hurry up and take a seat."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
When Chen Xun entered the table, the three of Bai Chen stood behind him, a group of dancing girls came from outside the courtyard, and the musicians waiting on both sides also started to play.
Under the peacefulness of singing and dancing, the concubines scrambled to toast to Yan Bo, with wonderful words and joyful words, which were too many to accept, and Yan Bo laughed boldly twice.
Bai Chen stared at those concubines, and he found that the smell of gunpowder among these women was very strong, far stronger than the rivalry and jealousy among ordinary wives!
The royal harem has been restless since ancient times, with conspiracy and tricks, and it has made generations of vicious black-hearted queens.
After Bai Chen looked around, he unconsciously turned his eyes to the huge stone arena on the lotus pond. He found that when the young men and women who followed the concubine looked at the arena, there would be blazing heat in their eyes. Little stars are twinkling quietly.
Crack, crack!
Appealing to Yan Bo, he clapped his hands twice, causing the concubines and musicians to fall silent instantly.
The dancer retreated, and for a moment, the atmosphere became particularly serious.
"My dear concubines, the annual Baigong Banquet is finally here. I don't know which of my sons and daughters will win the championship this year. I am looking forward to it!"
"Of course it is Your Majesty Yan. Concubine He has lived in His Majesty's palace for a long time, and has won Your Majesty's prestige. Now this will has been passed on from His Majesty Yan. The concubine is really happy for Your Majesty and Your Majesty~ "A charming and charming woman smiled coquettishly on the spot, which aroused frequent compliments from many concubines.
Following everyone's gaze, Bai Chen saw a plump beautiful woman, who was smiling back at those concubines who complimented her. On the surface, she had an unbelievable humility, but in fact, her eyes had already revealed Feng Lintian unruly.
Beside her, a man in his twenties was also flattered by these people, showing a complacent and contemptuous smile.
Of course, not all concubines are on Concubine He's side.
Suddenly, another beautiful woman stood up, under her red lips, her voice was numb: "Yo, it's just a fluke for two years, so we really don't pay attention to our concubine, let me see, Our concubine concubine's appeal to Prince Lie is more like His Majesty, he is open to all rivers and has won the hearts of the people~"
Known as Concubine Ling, if you measure her carefully, she is slightly older, but with her big watery eyes and white and delicate skin, she is even a few years younger than the previous Concubine He from a distance. point.
Beside her is the Prince Huan Lie that Bai Chen and others have seen before. This prince looks very honest, but he is more likable than that Huan Yan whose chin is raised to the sky.
