Chapter 251
The envoys of Nanyan came in first, the leader was a young son, wearing a royal blue dress, with a six-star plum blossom embroidered with gold and silver threads on the wide cuffs, and a golden crown tied his hair. He led a group of envoys, and said politely, "Nanyan Yan Jingxian pays homage to His Majesty the Western Emperor, and may His Majesty be as blessed as the East Sea."

The voice is clear and the momentum is calm.

The royal family of Nanyan is the Jing family, and this young man is the son of Prince Jing of Nanyan.

Xihuang glanced at the young man and said with a smile, "Pingshen, King Jingjun doesn't need to be polite."

Jing Xian bowed again, and led the Nanyan envoys to their seats.

Next came the envoys from Beiliang. The leader was a middle-aged man about 50 to [-] years old, with eagle-like eyes as sharp as knives, wearing a purple python robe, and a purple gold crown decorated with eight oriental beads, which looked resplendent and noble. , Beiliang is respected by purple, and you can tell that you are a prince just by looking at the clothes.

I saw him stepping in tall and straight, and said with a smile, "King Ding of Beiliang has met the Western Emperor, and may the Western Emperor live forever."

Hearing the sound, Mu Jiuqing raised her eyes and glanced. It was the first time she saw this Northern Liang Ding Wang. In her previous life, she heard that Ding Wang was assassinated and killed. She never had the opportunity to come to Xihuang to attend the emperor's birthday banquet, but now she is living well. Yes, some things have changed from the previous life.

When Xihuang saw him, his gaze became a little cold. He heard from the crown prince that the conspiracy 18 years ago was designed by this man behind the scenes. The Qin family had colluded with this man, so he must have secretly instigated the poisoning.

It can be seen that this man has deep scheming and cruel methods, so he needs to be dealt with carefully.

"Prince Ding is polite."

The Western Emperor smiled lightly, and King Ding of Beiliang nodded slightly and took his envoys to sit down.

Finally, the envoys to the east.

The Crown Prince Donglin was holding a hundred-bone bone fan and a black python robe embroidered with gold silk. He was imposing, strode in with high spirits, bowed and said, "Mingjue has seen the Western Emperor."

After two years of absence, this young man stepped into the palace again. Time has passed, and he has grown up.

Xihuang looked at the young man with a smile, glanced at the prince, and smiled lightly as if meeting an old friend, "I am very happy that the prince of Donglin can come to visit me in Western Chu, and you are welcome to return to Western Chu, no need to be polite , please sit down."

Feng Mingjue smiled, "Xie Xihuang."

He glanced at Li Shao on the seat, then his eyes fell on Mu Jiuqing, took a deep look, and then led the envoy from Donglin to sit down.

...

A birthday gift is offered at the beginning of the banquet.

First of all, starting with the crown prince, Li Shao sent a bottle of carved jade orchids, which looked ordinary, but he carved them himself, which seemed to be meaningful and filial.

Now Xihuang's mentality has changed, even if the crown prince gave him a wood carving, he would be happy, let alone a good piece of Hetian jade, the carving is very good, which shows that he has put his heart into it.

The Emperor Longxin was very happy and praised him very much.

The prince sat down.

Then there is the third prince Li Zhan. What he presented was a golden dragon carp, which was stored in a transparent glazed water tank. The whole body of the fish was golden yellow. This kind of fish is very precious. In addition to the gold and precious fish, the fish tank was also made with great effort. It was used by the royal family in the east. The crystal glazed jade vat produced, this kind of thing can only be found in Donglin.

This crystal glazed jade vat was a special tribute to Feng Mingjue when he was a hostage in Western Chu.

Two years ago, Xihuang thought that the prince was not his own, so he loved the third prince and would reward him with any good things.

Seeing this fish tank, the Crown Prince and Queen's expressions became ugly. Back then, Donglin only paid tribute to one fish tank. Li Shao and Li Zhan liked it very much, but the Western Emperor rewarded Li Zhan.

Seeing things brings back painful memories from the past.

The prince and queen Qiqi turned their faces away and didn't want to talk to him.

Xihuang: "..."

And the third prince gave this gift just because he wanted his father to evoke the old father-son relationship.

But he didn't know that he had offended the emperor. Xihuang looked at his wife and son and suddenly ignored his wife and son, feeling annoyed in his heart, and then blamed the third prince for his fault. Looking at the fish tank and fish, he didn't seem to have much joy, and said lightly, "The third prince has a heart."

Li Zhan was a little disappointed, his father didn't call him "Zhan'er" anymore, he still didn't understand why he was treating him like this all of a sudden?

Could it be because the concubine mother poisoned him as a gangster?Or is it because the mother and concubine plotted against the queen and let him know about the little doll cursing the queen mother?
Now that his mother and concubine are out of favor, he is also out of favor.

Just like the prince and queen back then, even worse.

He sat down, sneered in his heart, his whole body was icy cold, and he deeply realized what an emperor's heart is, this royal family is really cold...

Then came the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Prince presenting presents. He didn't know what other people were giving him, so he didn't bother to look at it. It was Jiu'er who had written so many letters to her in the past two years, but she hadn't answered any of them, and she would avoid seeing him even when she returned to Beijing, and she wouldn't even say a word to him when she met him. The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he was. I have worked hard for two years, and now I am getting farther and farther away from that position, and at the same time, I am getting farther and farther away from her... I used to think that she would never abandon and betray me in this life, but it turned out that I was too naive.

...

After the royal family of Western Chu, the ministers have finished offering, the rest are envoys from various countries.

What Nanyan gave was a night pearl, it was a good thing, Xihuang liked it very much, thinking that it could be given to the prince, it would always be worth as precious as a crystal glazed jade vat.

What Beiliang sent was a sparrow gold fur, and when it was brought out, everyone was dumbfounded, the sparrow gold fur is extremely rare, it is resplendent in emerald gold and green in color, very gorgeous and noble.

Xihuang's eyes lit up, and he immediately liked it. This thing was just right for the queen, and he happily accepted it.

The last is the east.

There are countless treasures in the east, but it's a pity that people just don't give them away.

The Donglin guard brought up something and covered it with red silk.

Prince Donglin stepped forward and opened it, revealing a wooden bottle of Buddha image, very ordinary and small, the only valuable thing is that the wood is a hundred-year-old sandalwood.

Feng Mingjue smiled and said, "Buddha Xiang Nai Mingjue spent seven to four or nine days carving it himself, with little courtesy and affection, I hope the Western Emperor will not dislike it."

Hearing this, Mu Jiuqing raised his eyebrows lightly, how could it be possible for him to carve it himself?

Everyone was also extremely skeptical, but Prince Donglin said that he carved it himself, but far away in Donglin, who can prove that he didn't carve it himself?

Xihuang smiled but didn't smile, secretly angry that this kid is holding a grudge!

"Prince Donglin has a heart!"

Feng Mingjue smiled lightly, clasped his hands, returned to his seat and sat down, raised his wine glass and looked at the girl opposite, couldn't help showing a sly smile, and even blinked his eyes.

Looking at his two shining canine teeth and his brightly smiling eyes, the corners of Mu Jiuqing's lips twitched, his lowered eyes really didn't want to pay attention to him.

He is becoming more and more dandy and out of tune, and his personality seems to be a bit different from his previous life. At this time in his previous life, he was still thinking about how to escape from Xichu every day, how to avenge his mother, his eyes were always gloomy and cold, and he could not smile In the end, there is a hypocritical smile in front of people, and a gloomy and resentful expression behind people, there is no such pure smile at all.

After the destruction of Western Chu and the unification of the two countries, I have never seen him smile really happily, his eyes are cold and piercing, and strangers should not get close.

Thinking about how pitiful he was in his previous life, he seems very happy and content now?
...

After presenting the birthday gift, they began to drink wine, sing and dance.

One song is over.

At this time, King Ding of Beiliang suddenly got up and said, "This king's visit to Western Chu this time is actually to propose marriage on behalf of the Northern Emperor."
