Fengjiu: "Daddy, any one of them looks good. Please choose one for me."
The next day, Fengjiu got up early. All the family members, young and old, came, even her brother and sister-in-law who were away from home came back, and everyone gave Fengjiu a gift.
Until the afternoon, dignitaries came into the palace one after another. Today, the young men from each family were dressed very nobly. They wanted to leave a good impression on the Princess Protector of the Country, just in case the princess took a fancy to her.
The girls from various families were also dressed elegantly and noble today. The King of Qin's family also had two legitimate sons who were of engagement age. They were the dream lovers of these noble ladies in the capital. In terms of family background and looks, no one in the capital could compare to them.
On this glorious day, today is the birthday banquet of the Princess Protector of the Country.
In the palace, lights and decorations were everywhere, and red silks were fluttering, showing an unparalleled festive atmosphere.
The banquet hall was magnificent, with flickering candlelight illuminating the exquisite murals and carvings on the walls.
The dome hangs high, and the sparkling gems inlaid in it are like stars, emitting a mysterious and charming light.
The guests, dressed in gorgeous clothes, filed in.
The princes and nobles were dignified and elegant in their manners. Their clothes were embroidered with exquisite patterns, and their jewelry sparkled brightly in the candlelight.
The banquet was filled with a wide variety of delicacies.
The roasted suckling pig, which is golden and crispy, is full of fragrance; the carefully cooked delicacies from land and sea are mouth-watering.
The nectar flows in the exquisite wine glass, emitting an intoxicating fragrance.
On the stage, musicians played beautiful music, the sounds of stringed instruments were melodious and lingering, and dancers, dressed in gorgeous costumes, danced gracefully, like fairies descending to earth.
The palace guards lined up neatly on both sides with solemn expressions, guarding this solemn and joyful moment.
The protagonist, the Princess Protector of the Country, dressed in a gorgeous dress, wearing a dazzling crown on her head, with a face as rosy as a peach and eyes as clear as autumn water, walked into the hall surrounded by the crowd.
Every step she took seemed so noble and elegant, with such graceful manners. Everyone bowed and gave the princess their most sincere birthday wishes.
The entire banquet was filled with laughter and overflowing with respect, love and blessings for the Princess Protector of the Country. It was destined to be an unforgettable and glorious night.
At the banquet, the young ladies from various families added a different kind of excitement to the banquet, and Old Lady Feng would introduce the young men present to her granddaughter from time to time.
"Nannan, look, the man sitting behind your aunt is Li Boyan, the eldest grandson of the Li family. What do you think of him? I heard that he passed the imperial examination at the age of twelve and was the top scorer two years ago. Last time, your aunt said that the reason he didn't marry was because he liked you. You see, he's not bad looking."
Feng Jiu looked towards her aunt and met Li Boyan's eyes. Li Boyan blushed immediately, the kind that went all the way to the base of his neck.
Fengjiu burst out laughing and leaned over to Grandma's ear and said, "Grandma, look at him, does he look like a cooked shrimp?"
Old Lady Feng patted Feng Jiu on the back and said, "Girl, I saw you were shy, and you teased me. It's great to know how to be shy. You're much better than those old-timers! This proves that you're an inexperienced young man. You're only twenty years old!"
"Grandma, forget it. If I marry her and she blushes like this every day, how can we still live like this?"
"Then look at the guy in blue clothes across from you. He's always peeking at you."
Fengjiu looked over, and the man pretended not to look at her. He made a gesture that he thought was cool and brushed back the loose hair on his forehead.
Feng Jiu: "Grandma, this guy is too narcissistic. He's not even as good-looking as Li Boyan just now."
"If Nannan doesn't like it, then take a look at the guy with your eldest brother. He's not much worse than your eldest brother. You know this guy!"
Fengjiu saw that the man was very handsome, at least 185cm tall, and looked strong and powerful.
Wei Xiao noticed someone was looking at him, and when he turned around he saw it was Feng Jiu. Wei Xiao nodded at Feng Jiu.
Fengjiu nodded to him. She didn't know this person either.
Seeing that her granddaughter didn't remember, Old Lady Feng said, "Do you still remember the little boy you saved in Wangjia Village when you were a child? His name is Wei Xiao. He has been studying under your Uncle Xiao for many years. He is now your second brother's most capable subordinate and a general. Many women in the capital admire him, but your second brother says he often asks about you."
Fengjiu also remembered that he didn’t expect that the guy who angrily chopped down the enemy at that time is now a general!
The Empress Dowager also came to the Fengjiu table at this time. Her appearance was still the same as before, with no change.
The Empress Dowager leaned over to Fengjiu's ear and asked, "Nannan, is there anyone you like? The Emperor asked me to ask you, who do you like?"
Feng Jiu held her forehead with her hand: "Aunt Xian, why are you joining in the fun?"
The Empress Dowager sighed, "I really want Nannan to be my daughter-in-law, but I don't know where that brat Achen has been all these years! I haven't heard from him in years, and I can't let you wait for him. You're already eighteen years old this year, you can't wait any longer. Look at this capital, there are more and more men in their twenties who haven't married yet. If not for you, then I should think about them. Only when you get married can they let go of Nannan!"
Fengjiu, what does this have to do with her? Since she is so popular, why doesn’t anyone confess their love to her?
What Fengjiu didn't know was that since the two twin brothers grew up, they knew from a young age that they had to protect their sister. The two boys took powerful pills when they were two years old. When they were at home, they were also martial arts geniuses. At the age of eight, they were invincible in the academy.
Therefore, any outsider who tries to get close to my sister is a bad guy. They must pass the test of the two of them before they are qualified to see my sister. Most men of the same age as Fengjiu in the capital have been beaten by these two brothers. They are not as good as them in martial arts or knowledge.
So Fengjiu hasn’t seen anyone confess their love over the years. Maybe they know, but Fengjiu itself has already tacitly accepted it!
The Empress Dowager took Fengjiu's hand and said earnestly, "Nannan, it's okay. Anyway, as long as you like someone, just bring them to the Princess's Mansion. It doesn't matter whose family they are. We will take care of it. It doesn't matter who they are. No one will dare to gossip."
Fengjiu, is this okay?
At this time, the emperor also came and sat on the other side of Fengjiu.
"My dear, do you have any favorites? If you do, just point them out. I'll have the secret guards send them to the princess's mansion tonight. Don't be shy. I'm a princess, so what if I want a few handsome men? As long as you want one, you can choose any man from the four countries. Even if we have to rob him, the emperor and I will grab him for you."
Fengjiu: "Grand Emperor, aren't you afraid of provoking another war?"
