What favor are you fighting for?The empress's harem has won a lot of business

Chapter 209
The emperor and empress are the last to appear.

Everyone in the hall stood up and saluted.

Xie Chenyu wore a more gorgeous imperial dress than usual.

The pearl crown hangs down neatly, revealing only the lower half of the handsome face. The bright yellow dragon robe is embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon, and the radiant candlelight shines on it.

The queen was a few steps behind him, and she was also full of radiance. She wore a high bun with a nine-tailed phoenix crown symbolizing the mother of the country, and was embroidered with a picture of a hundred birds facing the phoenix. The neckline and cuffs were trimmed with gold and silver threads.

With the most dignified smile on her face, she walked steadily towards the emperor step by step, stopped half a step behind him and turned around, proclaiming to the world with the most dignified and bright posture that she was the hostess of this heavenly kingdom.

There were whispers below.

"Sure enough, they are talented and beautiful, the emperor and empress are a perfect match"

"That's right, she is indeed the number one lady in the capital, tsk tsk, she has such an air of style"

"It still has to be from the Wang family. Other high-ranking families may not have such an upbringing."

A few words spread to Queen No. [-] Middle School, and she raised her proud head again, saying exactly the same words as the emperor, flattening her body.

At this point, everyone in the Wanbang Court Congratulations Conference has come together.

Xie Chenyu got up and said a few polite words of welcome, don't be cautious when saying a few words, I will definitely have a good time today.

There was a lot of response from the bottom.

The dancers enter and the vocal music starts. Both sides of the main hall are full of the top musicians in the music workshop. The instruments they use range from chime bells to guqin, all of which are priceless.

When the first beautiful note came out, all the knowledgeable people gasped.

Various languages ​​are whispered, and the meaning is simple and clear.

"good stuff"

"Yes, it is worthy of being the Kingdom of Heaven"

"I came to the Central Plains for the first time when I grew up, and I will never forget it"

"I want to stay here to learn art from a teacher, but I don't know if they will take me in"

Lin Ximeng picked up the teacup and blew on it, but after a long while she still didn't drink it, she put it down again.

In fact, she was hiding a smile.

It feels like watching my previous life entering a big city for the first time, seeing everything new, like a country girl.

Even the two wretched Persian men showed expressions of surprise and disbelief, as if they couldn't believe that Da Sheng Chao had such a good thing.

"Has the emperor received our message?"

Lin Ximeng asked Bauhinia, who nodded.

She asked the emperor why he didn't respond: "Eunuch Zhao didn't say anything."

Zijing was quite embarrassed to say that the emperor had no time to listen.

"Eunuch Zhao Hai said that he knew your intentions well, but Persia is too small, and it is not worth the emperor's thoughts. Our emperor is too busy, so there is no need to report this matter."

"puff!"

A sip of tea gushed out, and Lin Ximeng felt that she was still too small.

"Yes, the emperor is the emperor after all"

The music started, and after a few songs and dances, the first part of the banquet was to give gifts.

The first ones to give gifts were the larger neighboring countries that had good relations with the Dasheng Dynasty.

The Nanzhao Kingdom in the south presented their unique deep-sea red coral tree.

When the presents were brought up, the coral tree was as tall as a person, half a foot thick, exuding a blood-red color, and each fork was attached with different types of deep-sea creatures, including some shells, cute starfish, and even There are several shells with deep sea pearls.

Everyone gasped in amazement.

"Tsk tsk, this is really a diluted treasure"

"It's the first time I've seen such a red coral, it must be extremely hard to find, right?"

"I don't know if I can find such a plant in ten years. It's worth nothing more than that."

It can be seen from this that Nanzhao Kingdom is full of sincerity.

Bauhinia's eyes are almost starry.

Lin Ximeng continued to fiddle with the tea, but didn't drink it, but laughed in her heart and said that of course they are full of sincerity, Nanzhao Kingdom is a group of islands in the south.

The area is not small, but the land that can be planted is less than one-fifth of the country's land, and a large amount of grain needs to be bought from the Dasheng Dynasty every year.

Their fish and agricultural products will also be sold to the people along the coast of the Dasheng Dynasty.

Their people are good at raising fish and building boats, which are also needed by the Dasheng Dynasty.

In a word, the trade between Dasheng Dynasty and Nanzhao Kingdom was extremely close, and Nanzhao relied on Dasheng.

This situation is as it should be.

Lin Ximeng was deeply shocked again, and said to herself, look, this is the benefit of being strong, when a person is so powerful that no one dares to provoke him.

Only she is qualified to live a quiet life.

And the quiet years at that time were really quiet and good, and it was not an excuse for being unfavorable and unsuccessful in career.

Lin Ximeng put down the tea booth again, stared at the handsome man on the dragon chair at the pinnacle of power, and tapped the table with her white and tender fingers.

"Your Majesty, my concubine really admires you from the inside out, from body to heart, I just ask you to take pity on my concubine and get promoted early."

'We are a match made in heaven, the position of queen is clearly mine'

Seeing that her master kept looking at the superior position, Zijing felt complacent.

'It's right for the master to be self-motivated, and their slaves will follow suit'

But there was one thing she didn't understand.

Why does the master only look at the seat and not the emperor?

In all fairness, the emperor's appearance, talent, learning and morality, as well as his love for the master are all in good condition. The other empresses wink at the emperor frequently, so why didn't the master show any sign of it?

Soon Bauhinia's eyes were stunned by the gift from the second country.

It was the Liao Kingdom in the north, and what they paid tribute was a war horse. According to the envoy's description, that war horse was carefully selected by them from among [-] war horses.

"Whether the mane or the hoof is perfect, just a little"

The envoy put his right hand on his left shoulder, with an apologetic look: "It's just that this horse is very strong, and it has not been trained, so please invite the emperor Haihan."

We all know that the horses sent out must have been strictly trained and can serve people directly. The Liao Kingdom’s tribute to a strong horse that has not surrendered is equivalent to paying tribute to a wild horse. This is quite rude.

Xie Chenyu raised his handsome eyebrows slightly, but his crown remained motionless.

"I would like to hear about it"

"Once this horse is too hot-tempered, there are very few horse trainers in our Liao Kingdom who can subdue this horse. However, a while ago, Liao Kingdom was hit by another snowstorm, and those trainers were all frostbitten."

"Secondly, it was still the heavy snow. All the grounds were frozen, and our horses also suffered from a large number of frostbite. They are really tamed unconditionally. Please forgive me."

The Liao Kingdom was conquered by the ancestor emperor of the Dasheng Dynasty as a defeated country 200 years ago.

For 200 years, they have paid tribute every year and entered the court every year, so they are considered honest.

Even during the time of the emperor's grandfather, they still went to Beijing twice a year, once to pay respects and once to pay tribute.

Later, when the father came to the throne, he looked down on these foreigners and didn't want to see them, so he could only pay tribute for a year.

The Liao people didn't say anything, but they were obviously not as respectful as before.

A few years ago, perhaps they saw that the Dasheng Dynasty was not as powerful as before, and they gradually began to harass the border.

Herdsmen in northern Xinjiang are often invaded and lost their horses.
