Yaohua Palace.

Linlong had been waiting there for a long time. When she saw Mingyan returning to the palace with a normal expression, she hurriedly greeted her and asked tentatively:

"Your Highness, have you accomplished what the Queen Mother asked Your Highness to do?"

Mingyan looked at Linlong, sighed softly, and said: "This matter is said to be settled, but in fact it has not been completely settled. Let's wait and see what happens. We won't report back to the emperor's grandmother yet."

Seeing Mingyan's appearance, Linlong had no choice but to respond and followed Mingyan back to the house.

Mingyan just entered the room, and when she looked up, she saw Helianxin holding Concubine Qin's hand and mumbling something. When Mingyan entered the room, she gave Mingyan another bright smile——

"Yan'er is back? I, Sister Tongqin, are just talking. Just now, the Emperor said that he would welcome the envoys from the Later Qin State. There would be a big banquet in the palace tonight. He also said that every concubine above the concubine rank and Every prince and princess in the palace must attend."

He Lianxin snorted coldly: "The Qin State is so proud now. If the emperor hadn't spoken out, I wouldn't have wanted to wade into this muddy water!"

Helian Xin was a little annoyed.

After these few years, Helian Xin was considered a senior concubine in the harem, and Emperor Shunhe also granted her the position of concubine.

Naturally, she also wanted to attend this banquet.

Hearing Helianxin's words, Su Yanqin quickly patted Helianxin's hand and said -

"Sister, be careful what you say. If anyone finds out, I'm afraid it will be a waste of words."

He Lianxin shrugged and said nothing: "The rules of the Central Plains people are indeed useless. Look, Yan'er. When the Qin State was weak before and after, everyone looked down on them, but now even the emperor wants to welcome them as guests. This is always a world of the weak and the strong.”

Mingyan sat over, leaned against He Lianxin, and said with a coy voice——

"Godmother, it's not like that."

"In matters of diplomacy, my father has always attached great importance to the face of both parties. He would rather have distant relations than abandon those close to him. If the other party bears a grudge and takes revenge on Zhou, then the situation will be difficult to control."

Helianxin looked at Mingyan and said with a smile: "Our little princess has really grown up, and what she says is so profound."

Mingyan smiled and said: "How can any godmother say such an exaggeration? The former Highness Proton came to our Zhou Dynasty, which was the price to pay for defeat. But now that the Qin State is visiting again, we have no grievances, so naturally we have to pay for it." Just have a good attitude."

Helian Xin nodded as if he understood.

Mingyan couldn't resist anymore - "Godmother, please stop teasing me with these things. Why not prepare your stomach well and enjoy the delicious food tonight."

He Lianxin pointed at Mingyan and said angrily to the gentle Su Yanqin beside him -

"Sister Qin, look, look, this girl has learned to tease her sister as soon as she grows up! Please take care of her!"

A smile appeared on Su Yanqin's gentle face. She patted He Lianxin's hand and said -

"Stop pretending to be a bully here. If I really lecture Yan'er as you said, why don't you protect her? I'm tired of your games! You two have always been Standing together."

Helianxin pretended not to hear and fiddled with the armor in his hand.

Noticing He Lianxin's childlike appearance, Su Yanqin also shook her head, turned around, and said to Mingyan helplessly -

"The same goes for you, Yan'er. Offline, you're almost at your age, but you're still like a child. Tell me, tell me."

Su Yanqin's voice was soft and had no offensive power after all.

Looking at the two people who were more than ten years apart in age but both looked like children, Su Yanqin silently held her forehead - she probably only gave birth to one child, Mingyan, but she had to raise two children.

"That's all, I have to clean up. I can't give the people of Later Qin a sloppy image."

Mingyan immediately rushed over and hugged Su Yanqin, flattering her and saying——

"Concubine Mother is talking nonsense!!! Concubine Mother is not slovenly at all. Even if she wears coarse clothes, Concubine Mother is the most dignified and beautiful woman in the world!"

"You little naughty boy is still the same as you were when you were a child."

Su Yanqin looked dumbfounded, looked at Mingyan, and said helplessly: "You should also let Linlang and Linlong dress up nicely. Our eldest princess of Dazhou must not lose her grace." Mingyan vomited in a flattering manner. Sticking out his tongue, he hurried into the inner hall.

Seeing that both mother and daughter were busy, Helian Xin slapped his waist, and with the strength of the maid beside him, he stood up and was about to make his way back to the palace.

. . . . . .

evening.

Mingyan followed Su Yanqin and walked into the main hall with a smile. She looked at the masked envoy from the Later Qin Kingdom, then quickly withdrew her gaze and walked towards the position below the high position. Then he slowly sat down.

Mingyan's sitting down naturally attracted the attention of many people.

While it was still early, Mingyan was already surrounded by many noble ladies.

Even though there were constant chatter around her, Mingyan still showed no sign of impatience on her face. She kept looking at the ladies around her with a smile and replied warmly.

Su Yanqin picked up the tea cup and nodded from time to time to the ladies who came to look for Mingyan and said hello to her. Then her eyes kept falling on the Su family not far away.

Not far away, Xuanheng, who had been looking at Mingyan intermittently before, suddenly felt a little depressed when he saw the crowd of people in front of Mingyan, completely engulfing Mingyan's body.

He picked up a piece of pastry and put it into his mouth under the half mask.

This girl has loved such desserts since she was a child, and she would often come to Xuanzhong to coax him to try them when she was a child.

The taste of this pastry now is basically similar to that then.

While Xuan Heng was in a daze, two pretty girls holding arms suddenly passed by in front of him, with delicate eyebrows.

Xuan Heng naturally knew one of them.

When he was a child, Fu Wanxing, the eldest daughter of the Fu family, always came to cause trouble for him, and it was difficult for him to forget about it.

Miss Fu and Mingyan were like a pair of happy enemies when they were children. They were always noisy in Taifu's class, and they must be like this now.

Just as he was thinking this, Xuan Heng looked at the backs of the two of them with a searching look.

Some official ladies who were originally surrounding Mingyan saw the two of them and quickly stepped aside.

These two people, for officials like them whose fathers are in the middle and lower reaches of today's officialdom, naturally cannot be offended.

The teachings from their parents since they were young have taught them to avoid their sharp edges at this moment and to be careful everywhere outside.

One of these two people is the eldest princess's only daughter, and the other is a first-grade princess, and ordinary people cannot afford to offend them.

"Yan'er, we're late, you won't blame us, right?"

Liang Xiaoyi smiled crookedly at Mingyan, patted Fu Wanxing's hand next to her, and the latter stuck out her tongue and said -

"Good princess, you won't blame me, right?"

Mingyan shook her head helplessly: "Of course not. I'm very happy that you can come." (End of Chapter)
