A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 602 You Can't Touch That Person

The emperor was tolerant again and again, but the former court and the harem were quite critical of this.

Not only did the cabinet hand over many notebooks for participating in the performance, but the empress also invited the emperor twice on behalf of the harem.

The emperor said that when envoys from other countries came to Beijing, this dynasty should treat them with hospitality and try their best to meet their needs.This is the friendship that should be fulfilled as a host country.It is precisely because the Lang Kingdom is a defeated country that it is so lenient to the envoys of the defeated country, which shows the demeanor of a great country.

In this way, if there is a copy of the minister's participation, the cabinet will detain it, and the queen can't interfere with the government, and can only discipline the harem as best she can.

In the future, when the Prince of Lang Kingdom enters the palace again, those in the harem will be avoided as much as possible.

The emperor still sent someone to the embassy to say a few words to Prince Lang, reminding him to pay attention in the future, and did not criticize him too much.

The prince of Lang Kingdom promised to be quick, but when he turned his head, his true colors were revealed again.

During a small banquet, Prince Lang met Meng Yan at the banquet.

He saw that although the woman was wearing a lady's bun and her clothes were calm and prudent, her face was very young, her skin was as white as jade, her eyebrows were slightly curved, and her eyes were full and moist like the autumn moon falling into a pool.

None of her facial features are impeccably beautiful, but when presented on a face, there is an inexplicable attraction.

What's more, the prince of the Lang Kingdom has seen countless women and is well versed in romance, so he imagined that under the steady and mature attire, he would have such a seductive figure.

Later, Meng Yan and Ming Yanjun got together, and the two chatted while going elsewhere.

Prince Nalang raised his feet as if he could not obey his orders, and was about to follow.

Seeing this, the eunuch beside him who was specially assigned to serve him said, "His Royal Highness Lang just take a look, you can't touch that one."

Prince Lang Guo stared intently at the back, and said: "What's the matter, is she the emperor's concubine? Why can't I get involved?"

The eunuch also glanced over there, smiled and said: "That's not true, it's just that she is the lady of the court after all, not as casual as a palace maid."

The more you can't get it, the more you miss it.

Prince Lang lost interest in the maids in the embassy, ​​and his mind was full of the back view he saw at the banquet.

In a blink of an eye, the emperor officially hosted a banquet for the envoys from the two countries.

During the day it is a tribute ceremony, and at night it is a dinner.

According to the defeat agreement signed by the Lang Kingdom, the prince of the Lang Kingdom will present the annual tribute in full at the hall, and ask the envoys and subordinates around him to report the list of the annual tribute.

When the envoys' subordinates reported the list, the prince of Lang Kingdom stood in the hall with his head held high, as if so many tributes were presented to the Great Yin Kingdom, which proved that he was very proud of Lang Kingdom's vast land and abundant resources.

Sitting on both sides of the main hall were the ministers of the Great Yin. Seeing this situation, they couldn't help exchanging glances in private, some sneered, some shook their heads and sighed.

The prince sent by the Lang Kingdom feels very good about himself and is completely immersed in his own world.

After the Lang Kingdom finished its annual tribute, the emperor smiled and said with a smile: "It's been a difficult journey, and I have received the sincerity from the Lang Kingdom."

When the envoys of Li State entered the palace, they greeted the emperor of Yin State on behalf of the monarch of Li State, and then sent a batch of gifts.

It's just that this batch of gifts cannot be compared with annual tribute.This is just an exchange of gifts to show the friendship between the two countries, and it does not belong to the category of offering tribute.

And the courtiers did not dare to despise the Marquis of Shang from Li Guolai and the several envoys under him, so they voluntarily accepted the look of ridicule and contempt towards Prince Lang.

The emperor had the demeanor of a virtuous monarch and a wise ruler, and he also greeted the monarch of the Li Kingdom to the Marquis of Shang. He spoke solemnly, without any casualness towards the prince of the Kingdom of Lang just now.

When it was time for the dinner, the emperor personally invited the Marquis of Shang into the hall and sat down.

After the banquet, the gods attended together, and naturally a few noble female relatives were able to sit in the hall together.

Basically, the concubines of several princes in the court are there.

Meng Yan had heard Yin Heng mention Li Guo's all-powerful first-rank Marquis earlier, and now he has this opportunity to see it with his own eyes, so he also came to the palace.

Yin Heng was by her side, but before the banquet started, it was said that traces of suspected assassins were found in the palace.The emperor had always relied on him the most, and believed in his means of handling affairs the most, so he ordered him to strictly guard the palace and patrol the assassins.

In this way, Yin Heng could not enter the palace with Meng Yan because he had important business to do.

Meng Yan has already dealt with these scenes with ease now, she curled her lips and said, "Go ahead, don't worry about me."

Yin Heng looked at her, and just about to speak, Meng Yan narrowed his eyes with a smile and said: "Don't worry, I just paid a little respect to the Marquis of Li Guo. He is not as young as you, and he is not as good-looking as you. I won't look at him too much."

Yin Heng was amused by her when she heard the words, and said in a low voice: "You go in first, and I will come back later. Although it is in the palace, you still have to pay attention to the things at the entrance, do you need me to remind you again?"

Meng Yan laughed and said, "If I say I don't need it, the prince will remind me."

Just when the commander of the imperial guards came over, he cupped his fists to salute Yin Heng.Yin Heng nodded, said "I'm leaving" to Meng Yan in a low voice, and left first.

After entering the hall, Meng Yan sat down at King Yin Wu's table.

She was alone at the table, and she was a female relative, so she was quite conspicuous.

Others didn't know where King Wu of Yin had gone, so they didn't dare to ask.

After the officials and a few female relatives who had entered the banquet were seated one after another, a wonderful song and dance was presented in the hall.

Prince Lang Guo was dazzled for a while, and he was the most active, clapping his hands and saying hello repeatedly.

After the song and dance was over, he started watching the female relatives present in the hall one by one.

All the female relatives have heard of the absurd behavior of the prince of Lang Kingdom, and they are very disgusted with his unabashed eyes.

Prince Lang looked at each one from far to near.When he saw Meng Yan who was sitting quietly opposite, his eyes suddenly lit up. Isn't this the same woman he saw two days ago?

And right now, there is a distance of two or three feet from the center of the hall, so I can see it more clearly than last time.

The prince of Langguo was full of admiration, but he felt that it was more interesting to see it up close.

The emperor raised his glass to invite the Marquis of Shang to drink, and said: "Tonight's banquet is only for the envoys to clean up the dust, and the Marquis of Qin State can enjoy the fine wine of our great Yin."

Marquis Shang got up from his seat, raised his glass to greet him, and said, "Thank you, His Majesty, for your kindness."

Together with him, all the female relatives in the hall can have a glimpse of the demeanor of the Marquis of Li Guo.

Meng Yan also looked up, and saw that he was indeed a middle-aged Marquis, with a tall figure, and his facial features were as handsome as a knife cut, but there was a sharp air.

Just looking at the aura, Li Guo's first rank Marquis Wu really lived up to his reputation.

It's just... I seem to have seen it somewhere.

Meng Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, looked thoughtfully a few more times, and began to search in her mind, where had she seen him before.

Then she paused, a little surprised.

The person who held the umbrella down the mountain from the Huguo Temple that day...was him?
The Marquis of Shang was very vigilant, and after drinking the wine invited by the emperor, he sat down and met Meng Yan's gaze when he raised his eyes.

Meng Yan drank the tea with her eyes downcast without moving.
