Dart Lord of The World

C327 Southern Ambassador

"Princess, Prince Consort has arrived!" The attendants at the entrance shouted loudly. The officials at the banquet stretched their necks one after another and got up to welcome Princess Liu Li.

After all, it was a private banquet and there weren't many rules in the imperial court. Princess Liu Li also wasn't a person who liked complicated rules. She herself and Shen Kai had found a spot to sit quietly by the side. She did not like the noise, and also did not like the banquet, if not for the Eighth Prince saying that Shen Kai would also be participating in the banquet, she would not have appeared.

Shen Kai also did not like this kind of occasion, it was nothing more than the officials and officials from the imperial court being hypocritical and trying to win each other over. He did not like the way the officials and officials were scheming, hence he did not join in on the discussion.

In the bustling and lively banquet, Shen Kai and Gong Lier were quietly sitting in a corner, completely incompatible with the warm environment. Those ministers had wanted to chat with Gong Lier in the first place, but they couldn't find any excuses to do so.

Gong Lier was the emperor's only princess and also the emperor's most beloved princess. Shen Kai had the entire martial arts force backing him and she would be the leader of the army in the future.

Although the status of a fourth rank official was not high, he was a wuxiaozhuan with military power and also the identity of a Prince Consort. Don't look at how they were impeaching Shen Kai previously, they were all under the orders of the crown prince, and because the officials were admonishing them to impeach Shen Kai, the emperor had resisted the pressure of the officials to protect Shen Kai, which meant that Shen Kai's position in the heart of the emperor was extremely high.

"Prince Consort! This one is the head of the Military Department, Bu Fang! When a middle-aged man with a resolute face saw Shen Kai, he stepped forward to greet him. Then, he greeted Gong Lier, "The Minister of War, Bu Fang greets the princess."

Shen Kai felt that Bu Fang was very interesting. Generally speaking, when these officials saw him and Gong Lier, they would first greet him and then greet him, as Gong Lier was a princess after all. Although Shen Kai was a wuxiaozhuan, but this title was not as high as the status of a Prince Consort.

If it was to be nicer, Prince Consort would say that he was from a royal family, or perhaps a son-in-law, his status could be imagined. This Bu Fang did not greet Gong Lier first, but instead greeted himself first, which made Shen Kai feel that he was being interesting.

When Shen Kai and the female lead were together, those officials had been the first to call out to Gong Lier, putting him behind them. Towards this kind of situation, Shen Kai also felt very helpless, after all, he was relying on Gong Lier's status to become even more noble, and people would only remember that Gong Lier was Princess Liu Li, rather than Shen Kai's wife.

Although Shen Kai would never bother about all this with Gong Lier, he knew that Gong Lier did not know that these worldly matters were ultimately caused by her own masculinity. Shen Kai did not care about these, but if someone could notice these small details, it meant that they respected him and were different from those useless officials.

"The crown prince has arrived!"

"The eighth prince has arrived!"

"The envoy of the Ancient Southern Kingdom has arrived."

The continuous reports silenced the officials who were busy walking around the hall. Today's main character had finally arrived. The officials were thinking about how to show their faces in front of the Crown Prince or the eighth prince, so a banquet of this nature was naturally the best occasion.

After the Crown Prince entered the hall, all the officials knelt down in unison. The scene could be considered spectacular. The eighth prince had the same treatment, after all, his status was not lower than the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince casually nodded his head, his gaze sweeping across the group of officials kneeling down, he was very satisfied, but when he saw Shen Kai and Gong Lier sitting down leisurely, he turned a blind eye to his arrival. Most importantly, Shen Kai and Liu Li did not act in such a manner, with Liu Li's status, there was no need to bow to him, the Crown Prince.

The crown prince very nicely concealed his emotions and brought the Ancient Southern Kingdom's envoys to the head of the table. With the arrival of the envoys, the banquet naturally began. Several young girls were dressed in dancing attire. Two or three of them were carrying a lute. The zither began to play, and along with the sound of the zither, several young girls began to dance.

"The sound of this zither is not as beautiful as your playing." As Shen Kai was admiring the girl's dance, he heard Gong Lier speaking blandly.

Shen Kai retracted his gaze, and smiled: "This woman's zither music has the nature of a performance, for others to listen to it, of course it won't be as pleasant to listen to as the usual leisurely and refined playing, but her skill with the zither is considered good."

"You like watching people dance?"

Shen Kai was startled, he was curious why Li Er would ask that.

"You keep staring at them." Gong Lier pointed to the lady dancing in front of him.

Shen Kai laughed awkwardly. He knew that Gong Lier was jealous, but he didn't think that the high and mighty Gong Lier was actually a jealous little kid.

"If you really like watching people dance, I can dance for you."

"You can dance?"

"No way!"

"But I can learn."

"Everyone, let us toast to the envoys of the Ancient Southern Kingdom." The Crown Prince acted like he was the host, raising his glass to toast the Ancient Southern Kingdom envoys.

When the alcohol was strong, Gong Lier drank quite a bit, many people were toasting Gong Lier, and most of them were received by Shen Kai.

"I've heard that Princess Liu Li seems to have descended from the heavens. Now that I've seen her today, it is indeed as the rumors say. She is truly a celestial being." The envoy from the Southern Wasteland held his wine cup and walked over to Gong Lier and Shen Kai's table as he spoke.

"The envoy is too kind." Gong Lier said lightly. If not for Shen Kai, she would never have left the palace, and even the officials of Nine Continents rarely saw her. The envoy said that he had heard of his own beauty, and it sounded like a fake greeting, but Gong Lier's beauty was not fake.

"It's not excessive at all. Does the princess have a marriage engagement with such beauty?"

"Why do the envoys say that? Does the envoy not know that Princess Liu Li's consort is sitting next to her? " Bu Fang frowned. In the past few days, the envoys were in the capital, and many of them were talking about Princess Liu Li's Prince Consort Horse. In addition, all of the officials here knew who Shen Kai was, and there were also discussions about him.

"Please forgive this humble one's insolence, I was unable to see Prince Consort Glazed." The envoy chuckled, but the meaning behind his smile was not shallow.

"You Ancient Southern Kingdom people all have eyes like you do?" Shen Kai still did not understand the meaning behind his envoy's words, which was a little slow, and could not help but ridicule him.

"Lord Prince Consort has a large number of them, this humble one will consider it." The Ancient Southern Kingdom's ambassador did not mind, as she said this calmly, causing Shen Kai to feel as if his fist had landed on cotton.

"The princess has a natural talent, I believe Prince Consort is also a favored son of men. I wonder what talents Prince Consort has to be able to win the princess' heart."

It's coming, Shen Kai knew that the envoys from the Southern Wasteland were coming to make things difficult for him!
