Gradually, more and more people joined in.

The envoy and princess of the Kingdom of Zhuri also arrived.

A moment later, a eunuch's shrill voice was heard.

"His Majesty has arrived!"

The sound echoed throughout the entire banquet hall.

Then, everyone knelt down.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

At the entrance of the banquet venue, a man wearing a yellow dragon robe stood, his figure slightly bloated, his square face bearing an indescribable look of satisfaction.

At first glance, I don't know if it's just my imagination or what, but there's a sense of listlessness.

This person was none other than the emperor of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, Xuanyuan Honghua.

However, having held the throne for many years, his imperial aura was still unmatched by others.

The eldest prince bears at least seven points of resemblance to him.

It could even be said that the eldest prince is a carbon copy of him in his youth.

Once he sat down, a smile appeared on his slightly bloated face.

"Rise."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the curvaceous woman sitting next to the envoy from the Sun Chasing Kingdom, and a gleam of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Once everyone was seated.

Xuanyuan Honghua addressed the envoy from the Zhuri Kingdom.

"Presumably, the woman beside the envoy is the princess of the Sun Chasing Kingdom."

As she spoke, the woman stood up, dressed in a fiery red outfit and with striking makeup.

Every smile and frown of hers was captivating and charming; she was so lively that she attracted the attention of every man present the moment she stood up.

The voice is quite pleasant.

Princess Ouyang Ling of the Sun Chasing Kingdom wishes the Xuanyuan Kingdom eternal prosperity.

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Honghua burst into laughter.

"Good, good, the princess is such a treasure."

His eyes held a blatant desire.

Xuanyuan Honghua took a liking to Ouyang Ling from the very first glance.

Although Ouyang Ling is of a completely different generation from him, so what?

He, Xuanyuan Honghua, is the emperor of the Xuanyuan Kingdom. As long as he wants it, there is nothing he cannot get.

However, Ouyang Ling didn't take it to heart and simply replied with a sentence.

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."

After saying that, he sat down and remained silent.

Xuan Yuan Honghua's expression darkened for a moment.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, but soon, a stage was set up in the venue, and dancers gracefully walked onto the stage, accompanied by the melodious sounds of orchestral instruments.

This temporarily eased the awkward atmosphere.

This also made the atmosphere of the entire banquet lively.

Su Yan stood beside Xuan Yuan Yong Hao, side by side with Nan Tang, and stayed there obediently.

Occasionally, one could overhear the words implied in the conversation between the eldest prince and the second prince.

After a while, the eldest prince, Xuanyuan Yonglin, suddenly stood up and walked over.

His square face gave him a composed demeanor, and he spoke...

"The third prince seems quite calm, not in a hurry at all."

Xuanyuan Yonghao raised his eyes, dark and harmless.

"What is Your Majesty referring to?"

The eldest prince smiled.

"Judging from the doubts of the Third Prince, he probably really doesn't have the will to compete."

As he spoke, he waved his embroidered robe, and unintentionally, his sleeve brushed against the table, knocking the white jade wine pot on the table to the ground with a crack, shattering it.

Chunhua, who came right after, quickly bent down to clean and wipe.

The eldest prince straightened his sleeves, and seemingly unintentionally pointed at Su Yan.

"What are you still standing here for? Didn't you see that the Third Prince's wine pot is broken? Go and prepare another one. If you spoil the Third Prince's enjoyment, I will hold you responsible."

Su Yan lowered her head and retreated.

A special beverage room was prepared in order to help prevent the imperial kitchen from becoming too busy and chaotic.

As Su Yan was carrying out a white jade wine pot filled with the finest rice wine, the Witch Ancestor suddenly appeared before her.
