Translator: Lonelytree
Lin Yuelan, who was eating and enjoying Zhennan’s service, frowned when she sensed two jealous and resentful gazes.
Then, she followed the two gazes, but the person retracted their gazes.
Lin Yuelan’s sharp eyes swept across the people present. She saw that everyone seemed to be very interested in the fruits on the table. They did not notice the gaze that was shot at her just now.nove(l)bi(n.)com
Lin Yuelan raised her eyebrows, and her lips curled up slightly. This banquet seemed to be very interesting!
Since those two gazes were filled with jealousy, they would definitely give themselves away after a moment. She just didn’t know what the person was jealous of.
The guests arrived one after another, and the banquet officially began at three in the afternoon.
“The emperor has arrived. The empress has arrived! “The eunuch’s sharp voice suddenly sounded in the bustling venue. Then, the venue fell silent.
“Long live our emperor!” Everyone was shouting.
Amidst the shouts, some were kneeling, some were half-kneeling, and some were half-bowing.
Of course, besides the servants, there were also the ministers and their families of the imperial court of the Longyan Kingdom. Those who were half-kneeling were the descendants of the royal family and the other envoys of the Black Clouds Kingdom. Those who were half-kneeling were obviously the second prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom, Xiao Jingrui, and the sixth princess, Xiao Jingyu.
However, the person who stood out among them was Lin Yuelan.
Then, Yuwen Longyan smiled and said,” On behalf of the Longyan Country, I welcome all the envoys. Please take a seat!”
“Thank you, Your Majesty of the Longyan Country!’
The envoys from various countries sat down one after another.
“Envoys, you must eat, drink, and play well in the Longyan Kingdom!” Yuwen Longyan sat on the chair and said happily.
This was Lin Yuelan’s catchphrase that he had learned in Taoyuan Village.
Eat well, drink well, and play well?
The envoys were instantly confused.
These people were clearly here to increase their friendship with the country and communicate with each other for the purpose of marriage. However, they were in a foreign country.
They would always be unable to predict the motives and intentions of other countries. Therefore, it could be said that they were always in danger.
How could they eat, drink, and play well like this?
Yuwen Longyan didn’t care what the envoys thought. He ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to pour wine for the guests who had come from afar!
After everyone took their seats, Xiao Heshui of the Dragon Country asked curiously, “Your Majesty, are these fruits the specialties of your kingdom?” He pointed at the fruits on the table and asked.
Yuwen Longyan smiled.” Ninth Prince, that’s right. This is a specialty of my kingdom. These things can only grow in a specific place in my kingdom.” His tone was very proud..
