Chapter 145 banquet
The matter of Nan Helin coming to Yanzhao for no reason has been successfully resolved with the help of Gu Hengyu.

Nan Chu also did the same as what Gu Hengyu said, swallowing his breath.

Now the three kingdoms all know that Southern Chu sent the most promising prince to go to Yanzhao to celebrate the emperor's birthday.

Therefore, the folks secretly rumored that Nan Chu was afraid of Yan Zhao.

Anyway, after this incident, Yan Zhaomin's heart stabilized, and he became more confident in this country.

Because Nan Helin had a legitimate reason to come to Yanzhao now, it was natural for a visitor from afar to host a banquet.

Besides, Nanhe Lindu has been here for so long, and the banquet was soon put on the agenda.

Therefore, not long after Xie Chen met Nan Helin in the palace, he saw him at the banquet.

She was not the protagonist of this palace banquet, and she didn't have any intention of showing off, so she dressed in a low-key manner.

He simply tied his hair up with a gold-studded ruby ​​hairpin, and the rest of the hair fell naturally on his shoulders.

Wearing an apricot-colored dress, the whole person looks fresh and graceful. Although the whole is simple, the waist tightening design outlines Xie Chen's figure.

"Miss Chen, I'm glad to see you again." Nan Helin saw Xie Chen not far away, and walked over quickly with a smile on his face.

Because of these words, Xie Chen raised his eyes to look at Nan Helin, and took a step back.

Before Xie Chen could speak, he heard Nan Helin go on to say: "The last time I was interrupted before I finished speaking..."

Saying that, the smile on Nan Helin's face grew stronger, as if he really wanted to get closer to Xie Chen.

"Fourth prince, please respect yourself." A male voice came from behind Xie Chen.

It's Yan Qing'an.

Yan Qingan walked forward frowning, and stood beside Xie Chen.

He saw Xie Chen standing with a man from a distance, but he didn't look like Gu Hengyu.

Worried in his heart, he took a closer look at Nan Helin, and hearing such words from his mouth really made him a little annoyed.

"Oh? Your Highness the Crown Prince." Seeing Yan Qing'an's attitude, Nan Helin raised his eyebrows, feeling that things became more and more interesting.

"Chen'er, the queen mother seems to be looking for you." Yan Qing'an looked at Xie Chen and said, implying that Xie Chen should leave first.

Xie Chen glanced at Yan Qing'an with a smile on his face.

"Brother Xie for the reminder, then Chen'er will go first." Xie Chen saluted Yan Qing'an and left.

Apart from the maids and eunuchs walking back and forth carrying plates or decorations, only Yan Qing'an and Nan Helin were standing here.

"It seems to me that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has some affection for Miss Chen'er, but unfortunately Miss Chen'er didn't see it." Nan Helin said with a smile, with regret in his tone.

Because Yan Qing'an just heard what Nan Helin said to Xie Chen, he didn't like him very much.

"Chen'er is my cousin, so I naturally feel like a cousin to her." Yan Qing'an answered Nan Helin's question lightly.

Nan Helin also stopped answering the conversation, but looked at Yan Qingan with a smile on his face, looking a little weird and calculating.

Before the banquet started, people entered the hall one after another.

Xie Chen followed the queen and saw Princess Yongzhao who was dressed up today.

Looking at her radiant smile and her energy, she knew that the emperor had let go of her and Xie Han's affairs.

If it is soon, it is estimated that it will be announced in public today.

Thinking of this, Xie Chen also had a smile on his face, happy for Yong Zhao and Xie Han.

Before Xie Chen stepped forward to talk to Yong Zhao, she saw a scene that surprised her.

At this moment, it would not be an exaggeration to hear the words "shocked and dumbfounded" from Xie Chen.

Following Xie Chen's gaze, he saw Cheng Ying walking in behind Shen Yuzhi at the gate of the hall.

It would be fine if the two were arguing as before, but the current situation is that the two are talking and laughing, and even Cheng Ying still has this anger in his eyes.

When Princess Yongzhao saw the state of the two, she was not as shocked as Xie Chen, but just wondered what happened to the two of them these days.

Cheng Ying looked away from Shen Yuzhi, and naturally saw Yong Zhao and Xie Chen, and his expression became unnatural, a little embarrassed.

Xie Chen walked over to take a look at Shen Yu, and pulled Cheng Ying aside.

"What's going on with you two?" Xie Chen asked in a low voice.

I don't know what happened to the two of them in just a few days. Xie Chen just accepted that the two of them might have feelings for each other, but he didn't expect that it would be so soon...

Really leaps and bounds.

The progress of her and Gu Hengyu's relationship seems to be a bit slow compared with the two of them.

With this question, Cheng Ying blushed.

"You... what are you talking about? It's nothing." Cheng Ying said stumblingly.

Yong Zhao walked over from behind and happened to hear Cheng Ying's words.

Knowing the embarrassment in Cheng Ying's heart, Yong Zhao stepped forward and pulled Xie Chen, and said with a smile: "Forget it, don't rush to ask about this, I guess it will be difficult for her to explain clearly in a while."

Cheng Ying cast a grateful look at Princess Yongzhao, it was really hard for her to say this, she might hesitate for a long time and couldn't tell what happened in the past few days.

Xie Chen nodded, she didn't expect that a brave and enthusiastic woman like Cheng Ying would show her daughter's shame in the face of feelings.

However, Shen Yuzhi is a good candidate. Although he usually looks bohemian, he also has real talents and practical learning.

Having been friends with him for so many years, Cheng Ying must also know that he can trust Shen Yuzhi's character.

Xie Chen is sincerely happy for Cheng Ying.

Today's position was set ingeniously, Xie Chen didn't get to be next to the queen again.

Instead, the people in the prime minister's residence took their seats, and it happened that Xie Han sat firmly next to Princess Yongzhao.

The emperor glanced at the two of them indiscriminately, only to see that Yong Zhao's heart and eyes were all on Xie Han, and his heart felt sour.

He was spoiled by himself to the point where his eldest daughter would still marry. Even though he was the emperor with great power and would not let Yong Zhao suffer any grievances, he was still as reluctant as an ordinary father who was a father.

The banquet began in an orderly manner, and the maids and eunuchs brought up the dishes prepared by the imperial dining room and placed them in front of everyone.

Gold cups and silver cups, laughter, singing and dancing.

In order to show Yan Zhao's hospitality and demeanor of a big country, they will also go to the tower to watch the fireworks and the city's amorous feelings together in the evening.

The kabuki in the middle of the palace played the melodious pipa, and even the famous kabuki outside could not compare to those carefully cultivated in the palace.

There was an intoxicated expression on the faces of all the people present.

The following water sleeve dance revealed the woman's graceful figure and soft waist, which made people mesmerized and couldn't move their eyes from above.

In order to welcome Nan Helin and the Southern Chu envoys who followed him, the scale of the banquet was grand. Although the preparation time was rushed, it was still possible to see the meticulousness behind it.

There were laughter and laughter at the banquet hall, and even the emperor happily drank a few more glasses of wine.
