Chapter 175 Royal Annual Banquet

The palace is particularly lively today, with big red lanterns hanging around the palace gate, and the red carpet is spread directly from the palace gate to the main hall of the palace.

The guests who entered the palace to attend the New Year’s banquet today are all people with a certain status in Daning Country, so everyone is dressed up to attend.

As soon as Luo Lan got off the carriage, Leng Yu came over. He held her hand directly, as gentle as an eagle protecting his baby.

Luo Lan always felt that this was a bit inappropriate. She wanted to pull her hand back, but he pulled it tighter.

He strode forward, she pressed behind him.

When entering the palace gate, Yu Qiaoqiao, who was walking behind them, caught up and greeted her.

"Princess Yu..."

She raised her eyes and saw the beautiful Miss Yu who looked friendly, and she squinted her eyes and chuckled.

"Miss Yu is here too..."

Yu Qiaoqiao nodded with a smile. The moment she raised her eyes and saw Leng Yu, she suddenly turned red for no reason. When she saw him, she felt like she couldn't move her eyes away.

Luo Lan saw that her eyes were fixed on Leng Yu's face, and Leng Yu frowned awkwardly. She hurriedly said to resolve the problem.

"Miss Yu, this is my husband Leng Yu, Prince Yu, and I don't know if you recognized him before."

Yu Qiaoqiao came to her senses, shook her head quickly, raised her face and smiled bitterly.

How could they not recognize them? When she first entered the palace and saw Leng Yu, he moved into his heart. His father Yu Shiming also intended to betroth Yu Qiaoqiao to Leng Yu as his wife, and had already asked the emperor for an order to marry him. If something happened suddenly, he must be his wife standing beside him at this time!

Thinking of this, Yu Qiaoqiao sighed secretly. After a few greetings with Luo Lan, she hurriedly left with the girl. She felt that she didn't have the courage to look at Leng Yu, and her eyes made her unable to extricate herself after seeing it.

Today's New Year's banquet is held in Baohe Hall, where the royal family holds a large banquet.

When Leng Yu and Luo Lan came in, the place was already surrounded by rectangles, and the table covered with soft golden silk cloth was full. Luo Lan looked around and she really wanted to find a quiet corner to sit down. But when she saw her coming in, Concubine Chang waved to her, whether it was kind or intentional, and signaled her to sit over.

Although Luo Lan didn't like her, she saw that the place where she sat was full of female relatives, so she could only whisper to Leng Yu:

"My husband, I'll go there..."

Leng Yu frowned and looked at Concubine Chang with a dim expression. There was only one position in the corner behind Concubine Chang, and that position looked like a girl.

He held her hand and did not let go. His handsome eyes raised, looked at her side, and whispered softly in her ear with a gentle voice.

"My wife doesn't have to cater to anyone, just follow me."

As he spoke, he took her hand and sat down next to him. Seeing this scene, Concubine Chang's face suddenly became deserted.

The seats for the royal New Year banquet are of particular importance. Generally, seats are arranged according to the status of these people. They are next to the head of the Golden Dragon table at the main seat. On the right is King Zhennan. During Leng Yun's confinement, Leng Yu sat next to Leng Zi'an. The position of Leng Yu should have been Leng Yu, but now Luo Lan is sitting in the order, followed by Leng Xi, Leng Ming, and then there are Grand Master Wu, Wu Hong, Yu Shiming and more identifiable officials in the court.

On the left, next to the Golden Dragon Table were Concubine Chang, Concubine Li, Liu Dechang, Huang Shixiong, and important officials in the palace.

The other concubines and the families of ministers sat in the back seat, including Yu Qiaoqiao, who had a bright gaze. Her beautiful eyes looked at Leng Yu from time to time. Although Leng Yu's eyes never looked at her, the rosy cheeks were still clearly visible.

At this time, Liu Xi's voice sounded like a duck's voice.

"The Emperor is here!"

Hearing this, everyone stood up and saluted the emperor in unison.

"The emperor is lucky..."

The emperor was wearing a golden dragon robe and a look of shrewdness in his eyes.

He came to the position of the Golden Dragon table in the first place, sat down with his clothes, looked at everyone, and said with a gentle expression:

"Today is New Year, everyone doesn't have to be polite, just sit down!"

When everyone heard this, they sat back to their seats.

At this time, the emperor glanced at the person sitting at the head and said loudly with a serious expression:

"Today is the annual New Year banquet of the Daning Kingdom. All the vassal kings have come from thousands of miles away. I am deeply happy."

Speaking of this, he glanced at King Zhennan. This brother who had not met for twenty years looked much older.

King Zhennan also noticed his gaze. His eyes were straight and his fists were clasped in cold eyes:

"I haven't seen you for many years, and the emperor's heroic spirit remains unchanged back then. I am deeply at ease. I wish the emperor a new year and a new atmosphere, a strong body as strong as an iron ox, and I wish the country and the people a prosperous and healthy life."

"Hahaha!"

The emperor whistled to the sky. This laughter did not come from his heart, but seemed to shake the sky.

After laughing, he looked at King Zhennan with a serious and gentle look.

"I heard from my words that I haven't seen you for twenty years. Your body is getting stronger and stronger. I am deeply relieved. However, I heard that my brother has no descendants yet? This really makes me feel sad!"

As soon as the emperor said this, Leng Zi'an's face turned pale. He said this in public, obviously ridiculing himself for having no children.

If it were in the past, he would have been furious and then left with his sleeves.

But now it won't be because he has a small aspiration.

He had known that the emperor would talk about this matter, so he wanted to bring Xiaozhi in the morning.

Thinking of this, he raised his head proudly and laughed.

"Hahaha…"

Hearing his unintentional laughter, the emperor was a little confused about what was going on.

After the laughter stopped, Leng Zi'an raised his head proudly, looked at the emperor with a burning look, and said loudly with a rosy face:

"Thank you for worrying about me, but I have not only children, but also a son. I am smart, cute and smart. I look like my brother, brave and powerful. I will definitely be a general and minister in the future."

"oh?"

After hearing what he said, the emperor's brows tightened for no reason, and a hint of mockery and contempt appeared on his face.

Leng Zi has no son, which is something that everyone knows, but now he says he has a son, and anyone with a discerning eye can hear this. This is he talking nonsense.

So the emperor raised his eyebrows, looked at him curiously, and said with contempt:

"Since I have a son, why don't you bring me and everyone to see you? Let him and Yu'er, Xi'er and Ming'er meet him? Is there any inconvenience?"

The emperor had some suspicion in his words. Leng Zian pulled the corners of his mouth, cleared his throat, and said proudly:
Chapter completed!
