In the end, Yue Luoxue agreed to accompany Nalan Rongxuan to the palace for the feast. Originally, she thought that she would at most be a small green leaf, but she didn't expect Nalan Rongxuan to actually bring him clothes and accessories, as well as a maid personally serving him.

Being tidied up by the group of maids, and looking at himself in the mirror, Yue Luoxue was slightly absent-minded. She could only sigh: As expected, a man relies on his clothes to carry his horse!

Her lower body was a moon-white flower dress with a silvery-red gown with long sleeves covering the outside. On the top of her bun, there was a simple white jade hairpin, and along with her delicate face, it made her feel like a celestial being.

If the Yue Luoxue before was like an orchid in a valley, with an elegant temperament, then the Yue Luoxue in front of the hall was like a peony, noble and gorgeous.

As he watched Yue Luoxue walk out of the room, Nalan Rongxuan's unfathomable eyes flashed with amazement, and then he smiled. "Let's go."

Wei Ling was extremely shocked, the Duke actually allowed Luoxue to wear this piece of clothes! He lowered his head to cover the astonishment in his eyes. As the prince's most "considerate little cotton-padded jacket", he would never talk too much about it.

When Yue Luoxue and Nalan Rongxuan entered the banquet hall, it was already filled to the brim with people, she could even hear the discussion from far away that the King Xuan was really arrogant.

Raising her head to look at Nalan Rongxuan beside him, her face was as indifferent as if she hadn't heard anything. Yue Luoxue curled her lips.

"King Xuan has arrived!" Following the announcement, Nalan Rongxuan reached out and grabbed Yue Luoxue's wrist, and the two of them walked into the hall step by step.

Yue Luoxue knew that she would definitely be watched, but this attention contest seemed to be a little excessive?

Those shocked gazes moved from Nalan Rongxuan's face to the two people's hands that were holding each other, and then to Yue Luoxue's face. Some people's gazes finally fixated on her clothes.

"Nalan Rongxuan, you are too arrogant!" Yue Luoxue muttered.

Nalan Rongxuan did not answer as he pulled Yue Luoxue to sit in his own seat. It was only then that everyone in the hall seemed to have reacted and started whispering amongst themselves.

"Big sister Lifei, do you think I'm seeing things? Why does that girl's clothes look so much like Imperial Concubine Wan's?" A delicate voice echoed. Even though it wasn't loud, it was sufficient for them to hear everything that should be said.

Imperial Concubine Wan was Nalan Rongxuan's mother, while Imperial Concubine Li was Nalan Rongxuan's concubine that had taken care of her after her death. At this moment, she was sitting together with Ning Suran, looking extremely intimate.

Li Fei looked at Yue Luoxue from afar: "They do look a little similar, but after so many years, I can't remember."

"Sister Lifei probably can't remember, I still don't want the little beauty by my side to be sad. I still remember when Rongxuan saw Imperial Concubine Wan wearing beautiful clothes, he said he wanted to give her clothes to wear in the future!" The girl covered her mouth as she giggled.

When she saw that Nalan Rongxuan and Yue Luoxue had actually come over together, she was already burning with anger. Now that she heard it, how could she still remain calm?

Lifei quickly patted Ning Suran's hands, and laughed: "At that time, Rongxuan was only four or five years old, how could a child decide?"

Ning Suran understood Lifei's meaning. Today was the Emperor's birthday banquet, she would endure for now. Luoxue, their relationship had deepened!

The Empress's words quickly spread, and the way the others looked at Yue Luoxue became even more complicated. Naturally, Yue Luoxue heard it and fiercely glared at Nalan Rongxuan.

Now, those people who wanted to get ahold of Ning Suran and their fiancee must have moved over to her place. Other than feeling angry, they were also a little depressed in their hearts.

Although he was middle-aged, he was still very handsome. Thinking about it, this devastatingly beautiful person beside him had half of the emperor's genes, how could the Nalan Jie grow weak?

It was just that Nalan Jie's expression was not too good, as if his body had been emptied out by the alcohol. Yue Luoxue harrumphed in her heart, as expected, he was a powerful gene, and this lecherous look was also inherited by Nalan Rongxuan.

Since Yue Luoxue entered the palace, she had paid attention to everyone who approached Nalan Rongxuan, only that she did not sense anything related to the parasite.

"Princess Yan Yang, Liu Qingqing, is willing to give you a dance. I wish Your Majesty eternal life."

Only now did Yue Luoxue notice that Liu Qingqing, who was sitting behind Liu Chengfeng, was dressed in emerald clothes, appearing to be rather slim and graceful.

As Sunscorch Kingdom was the strongest nation on the continent, naturally, there was no need to curry favor with the Profound Star Kingdom. Therefore, Liu Qingqing's dance gave the Nalan Jie face and the latter laughed out loud, "We are very happy to receive the princess' blessing!"

When Liu Qingqing went to change her clothes, she inadvertently glanced at Yue Luoxue, and only Yue Luoxue was clear about the resentment within.

Yue Luoxue laughed lightly in disdain, only to see Liu Chengfeng raising his cup to her. Yue Luoxue replied quietly, but was slightly alarmed in her heart, Liu Qingqing might be brainless, but Liu Chengfeng was not, and this dance was not for nothing.

Liu Qingqing had changed into a long robe made of mist, revealing a faintly discernable figure, her dancing posture was also not bad, her graceful figure constantly dancing in front of Nalan Rongxuan.

In the entire process, Nalan Rongxuan did not even raise his eyes a single time. The disappointment on that fox's face became even more apparent, until he almost made a mistake in the end.

After dancing for a while, Liu Chengfeng stood up and said slowly, "Your Majesty, King Xuan has grown up in the Sunscorch Kingdom since childhood, and can be considered to be childhood friends with Qingqing. Today, I, Yan Yang, am willing to use five cities as my dowry and request that Your Majesty grant Qingqing and King Xuan a marriage!"

The situation of the prawns? Yue Luoxue was stunned at first, but soon after, she looked at Nalan Rongxuan with a gloating smile.

Nalan Rongxuan had an indifferent face as he faced the various emotions of the crowd. The corner of his mouth formed a smile that turned the crowd upside down, oh, no, that couldn't be considered as a smile at all.

However, the smile on Yue Luoxue's face gradually condensed, and an uncomfortable feeling rose in her heart. Could it be that Nalan Rongxuan wanted to agree to it?

Not to mention being the concubine of the King Xuan, even if Liu Qingqing wanted the princess consort right now, the old emperor of the Profound Star Kingdom would probably agree to it.

If it was the past, Yue Luoxue would have thought that this "obtaining without working" was a shortcut, but now, he could not help but feel disgust in his heart. If Nalan Rongxuan agreed, she would not be happy!

It was definitely because she had enmity with Liu Qingqing that she could not accept Liu Qingqing standing by her side. It had to be like this! Otherwise, what reason could she have for not wanting Nalan Rongxuan to agree?

When Liu Qingqing saw the smile on Nalan Rongxuan's lips, she became completely infatuated, and that pair of fox eyes slowly revealed a smile.

The others also gradually recovered from their shock. With five cities as dowry, was Sunscorch Kingdom insane?

Everyone looked at King Xuan. Since these five cities were the princess' dowry, then they must be incorporated into the King Xuan's territory. This way, the King Xuan would have the qualifications to compete with the Crown Prince.

Under the expectant gaze of the crowd, Nalan Rongxuan finally opened his mouth: "Heh, the Sunscorch Kingdom is truly generous. He wants to let a princess become his concubine and even marry five cities."

His tone was light and indifferent, as if he was talking about someone else's matter. Yet, it caused Liu Qingqing's expression to change, and everyone else suddenly recalled that King Xuan had a fiancee.

How could a princess of a country possibly become someone's concubine? Hearing King Xuan's tone, he was afraid that he did not agree, and Yue Luoxue secretly heaved a sigh of relief, luckily Nalan Rongxuan did not disappoint her, and for five cities, he agreed to marry Liu Qingqing.

"My princess Yan Yang will naturally not be a concubine. However, royal father knows that the King Xuan is already engaged and is even a daughter of the Ning Family, so he will naturally not stop us. If ordinary people do have an equal wife, then why can't the Tian Family?"

"That's right, there's nothing wrong with the two wangfei's." The one who spoke was an emissary from the Silvermoon Kingdom. The Silver Moon Kingdom had two empress concubines from generation to generation, so they didn't have to fight for favors or have an independent wife. Therefore, the two consorts weren't much of a big deal.

When one opened his mouth, there was a second, and everyone started to discuss it again and again, they just felt that King Xuan should agree to it, no matter what, this matter is good for King Xuan right? Did you not see the obvious jealousy on the faces of the crown prince and the second prince?

Even the Nalan Jie was moved. The nine nations' peace would not continue like this, the five cities were no small number: "Xuan'er, I thought …"

"This King will only marry one wangfei in his lifetime." Nalan Rongxuan raised his head slightly, looked at the Nalan Jie, and spoke with an indifferent but resolute tone.

Ning Suran was already extremely furious. Five cities, how could any man in the world reject such benefits? But Nalan Rongxuan had rejected it, and even said that he would only marry one wangfei in his lifetime!

Her heart skipped a beat as Ning Suran looked at Nalan Rongxuan with a bashful expression. She had never been so touched like this before, and the grievances she had suffered these past few days could no longer be considered as anything!

Nalan Rongxuan's words stirred up a thousand ripples. All the men felt that it was inconceivable, that Nalan Rongxuan would actually give up an opportunity to thoroughly turn things around, and all the women threw envious and jealous gazes at Ning Suran.

Just what was so good about this woman that the King Xuan would make such a promise in front of everyone. Marrying only one wangfei in his entire life, this was simply the most beautiful love story!

Yue Luoxue was slightly lost in thought, and thought of a similar situation. On the palace in the Scorching Sun Imperial Palace, he had also said "as long as Luoxue is sufficient".

It wasn't that she wanted to remember it so clearly, but it had appeared in his mind at this moment. Her heart was actually a little sour, and Yue Luoxue told him that she wasn't jealous.

He turned his head and looked at Ning Suran who had a bashful expression.

Liu Qingqing, however, had completely collapsed as she hysterically shouted, "King Xuan, why can't I do it? I am the most respected princess of Sunscorch Kingdom, I am not one bit inferior to them! "

"Princess Qingqing, the prince has made it very clear that it's best if you don't bring disgrace upon yourself." Ning Suran was not a soft persimmon either, she could not take out five cities, but what Nalan Rongxuan said just now made it clear that she was on his side, so what was there to be afraid of.

Liu Qingqing looked at Ning Suran and suddenly laughed loudly: "Ning Suran, you think that Nalan Rongxuan will only like you? When he was at the Sunscorch Kingdom, he had said that as long as Luoxue was alone, it would be enough.
