winter festival

The hunting celebration in the Central Plains came as scheduled, and the Emperor Nangong Xiang sent palace officials to inform the nobles and nobles from all over the world to come to the banquet.

The sky was brightly lit with fireworks, and the sound of gun salutes resounded throughout the capital.The surroundings of the palace are heavily guarded, and distinguished guests from various countries enter the arena under the guidance of maidservants. After passing through the palace gate, you can see the interior of the palace.Amber wine, jasper cups, gold-footed bottles, emerald dishes, the food is picturesque, the wine is like a spring, the guqin is running, and the bells are tinkling.The main hall is decorated with upside-down bell-like flowers, the calyx is pure white, with a translucent luster like bone china, and the top of the petals is a circle of lavender in different shades, which seems dyed and natural.

The cloud-white and clean hall reflects crystal pearls as clear as tears, ethereal and illusory, and the beautiful scenery is like flowers separated by clouds, making it hard to tell which is the real scene and which is the reflection.

The first person to enter the arena was the Prince of Persia, Ayimurang. He was a bit fat, with a belly full, and he saluted the Southern Emperor in a friendly way.Behind him is the Persian princess, Ayimna, with a beautiful figure, dressed in light gauze, and dressed in their national costumes, colorful, naughty and lovely.There is no trace of fat on her waist, which is decorated with shining silver nails, and her skin is fair.Delicate bells were tied around her ankles, which made crisp sounds as she walked.Her dark blue eyes were sparkling, her nose bridge was straight, and her bright red lips and white teeth were slightly exposed.Such a charming princess naturally moved the hearts of many southern princes.

She sat down next to Brother Wang, and then looked at the Nanguo Jungui without fear. Nanhuang was a kind and friendly old man, and sitting next to him was a dignified and elegant woman. Queen.Afterwards, a few princes with handsome features and fairly recognizable appearances were seated on both sides.The eighth princess, Nangong Yan, was sitting next to the queen. She was the only known princess in the Southern Kingdom.

The Persian princess looked away without interest, and the palace servants began to announce the next entrant.

The nobles all looked at the entrance of the palace, only to see a person wearing a black cloak with a huge wolf picture embroidered on it.Lined with a white brocade robe, the cloak fell down, half of the silver side covered the eyes, and the silver thread was slightly erected and draped over the back.The handsome face is as impeccable as finely carved jade.He is tall and straight, exuding majesty from top to bottom.Everyone felt as if they had fallen into a holy land of ice and snow, shocked by his stern aura.He nodded slightly to the Southern Emperor.Then he followed the maid to his seat.Beiguo Zhihu Ermuzhi sat beside him.

Then the palace people began to summon other dignitaries to the palace. Princess Persia looked at the Snow King of the Northern Kingdom opposite her, her heart beating extremely violently. There was something about this man that attracted her.The eighth princess, Nangong Yan, was also deeply involved in the scene just now. She had the illusion that she could see through the eyes half covered by the silver face, making her unable to extricate herself from falling into the past.

The queen of the Southern Dynasty signaled, "Why didn't Xiu'er come?"

The queen said softly, "I heard that Xiu'er is a little tired for arranging this hunting festival, so she is resting at the residence."

"Don't be afraid that we will force him to marry a concubine"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I think Xiu'er must be too tired, not on purpose."

"Forget it, let him go"

In fact, the queen didn't understand why her child didn't attend the banquet tonight, she just heard the report from the servant in his house that King Jin drank too much and it was inconvenient to come.In order not to affect the face of the royal family in the southern kingdom, it had to be like this.

After the palace servants had finished reporting, the feast began.

During the dinner, the queen looked at her daughter many times, and when she saw her looking at the seat of His Highness Beiguo from time to time, an idea came to her mind.Cheerful.

"Yan'er, what are you looking at?"

"No, no," Nangong Yan was a little incoherent.

"Is Yan'er in love with a noble country?"

"Yan'er didn't," she denied.

The queen pretended not to know, and continued, "You can go down and toast, and express the friendship of the southern country to its neighbors for me and your father."

"Must be so?"

"kindness"

At this time, the princes of the Southern Kingdom had left their seats one after another, toasting to their favorite princes.The hall is very lively.Only Snow King of the Northern Kingdom remained in his seat. She raised the cup, gestured to the Southern Emperor and Empress, and drank it all in one gulp.The emperor and empress in the court also toasted to him at the same time.

The Persian princess put aside the nobles and dignitaries around her and walked towards the Snow King.

Hearing the sound of the bell, the Wolf King raised his eyes lightly, and then said to the chief next to him, "Princess Persia's wine, pay me back."
