The next moment, his buttocks bounced up, and his obese body fell backward, crashing into the table behind him and causing a chorus of exclamations.
Lady Ping was also terrified, her face turning pale. She hurriedly went to help the Marquis, crying, "My lord, my lord!"
The eunuchs quickly helped him up.
The man was still trembling, his eyes fixed on Xiao Zhixing.
Xiao Zhixing looked completely bewildered. "Lord Ping, what's going on?"
Xiao Xin, the only surviving member of the royal family from the Yin Dynasty, should indeed call Xiao Yan his elder sister.
But even if he and Xiao Yan look alike, does he really need to react so strongly?
This is clearly something he did to wrong Xiao Yan, which is why he's so terrified.
Marquis Ping trembled more and more violently, his face turning deathly pale, just as he heard the eunuch announce:
"His Majesty has arrived! His Majesty the Empress Dowager has arrived! His Imperial Concubine has arrived! His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived! His Highness Princess Fengxi has arrived!"
Everyone immediately bowed and greeted the emperor and his family.
However, because Xiao Zhixing had pulled this stunt, their movements were a bit stiff.
Zhao Yunqi first helped the Empress Dowager to her seat before turning around himself. "All of you, please rise. Today is a welcome-back banquet, so please relax and enjoy yourselves."
Everyone stood up and sat down.
Apart from the rustling of clothes, the entire Yan Yun Terrace was filled with an inexplicable tension and eerie atmosphere.
The younger generation looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with their elders? Why did their expressions change so suddenly?
At this moment, Xiao Zhixing also sat down, raised his head, and boldly swept his gaze over the three giants at the head of the table.

He ascended the throne as the emperor's son-in-law, dumped his first wife, and seized control of the empire.
His looks and temperament are naturally top-notch; if he were ugly, Xiao Yan wouldn't even look at him.
Now that he sits firmly on the throne, he exudes the natural aura of an emperor, with a ruddy and benevolent complexion, and looks like a good emperor.
However, the gritty smell couldn't be masked.
The comments section was filled with agreement, overwhelmingly praising her, with everyone calling him a "scumbag!"
This stench has been passed down for thousands of years. I wonder if Zhao Yunqi would be so angry that he would vomit blood if he knew?
The Empress Dowager looked like an ordinary old lady, sitting there happily, and her features resembled Zhao Yunqi's.
Then there was Consort Zhang, whose appearance was not exceptionally beautiful, but whose charm lay in her gentle and graceful temperament.
Seated upright, she possessed the air of the most powerful woman in the harem.
The atmosphere at Yan Yuntai was deathly silent. The three leaders above also noticed it and were puzzled for a moment. The first person to see Xiao Zhixing was Consort Zhang.
Snap!
The jade fan in her hand fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
