Feng Jiu and his companions were brought by palace maids to the seats arranged for them by the Queen, and Feng Laosi and his companions also arrived.
The emperor and empress were the last to enter the hall. Everyone knelt down and shouted "Long live the emperor". Only after the emperor asked everyone to stand up did they stand up.
The Emperor said, "Today's banquet is to welcome the Anping Marquis and his family. The Anping Marquis has grown high-yield crops and made an unparalleled contribution to our Nanli. The Fu'an County Lady also presented me with the elixir sent by the immortal master. I am very pleased."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Prime Minister Lan Yanfei stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please don't be fooled by some witchcraft. How could there be gods in this world? If there really are gods, Your Majesty should have seen them first."
Fengjiu was angry. What kind of people were these? What kind of witchcraft were they using?
Fengjiu used her mind to release Xiaolonglong, ready to teach the prime minister a lesson.
Before the emperor could say anything, a young eunuch shouted, "There really are gods. Come and see!"
Everyone looked up and saw an ethereal fairy floating in the air riding an animal that looked like a deer but not like a deer.
Everyone knelt down and kowtowed, even the emperor and empress got off the throne.
This is also another skill of Xiaolonglong, clone.
"Who was questioning my disciple just now? Everything in this world has its consequences. If my disciple hadn't been kind-hearted and used her merits to exchange for high-yield grain for the people, do you think high-yield grain would have fallen from the sky for you?"
Prime Minister Lan was now so frightened that he was at a loss of his wits, and his body was shaking as he knelt on the ground.
At this time, the emperor spoke: "Please calm down, Immortal Lord. I will definitely punish Prime Minister Lan."
"Forget it. This Immortal Venerable doesn't care about your mortal affairs. As long as this Immortal Venerable disciple can safely pass the tribulation and ascend to heaven, that's all that matters."
At this time, Feng Jiu's milky voice rang out: "Master, I don't want to ascend. I want to stay with my father and mother."
"Well, okay, Master promises you that you can do whatever you want. Master will obey you. Just grow up obediently."
Everyone was screaming like a groundhog in their hearts, ahhhh, this master is too doting, what kind of god-like master is this, they want one too.
Xiao Longlong waved the whisk in his hand, and several fairy fruits appeared on everyone's table. Xiao Longlong said: "I am in a good mood today, so I will give these fruits to everyone. Disciples, please be good. Master is leaving."
When everyone looked up, they saw a flash of white light, and the immortal was gone.
Fengjiu sat calmly on the chair, eating strawberries on the table, his short legs still swinging under the table.
Everyone thought: "Is this really the disciple of a god?"
The emperor also looked at Fengjiu, who smiled sweetly at him. The emperor waved at Fengjiu and said, "Princess Fu'an, come forward."
Fengjiu looked at her father and mother, climbed down from the stool and ran towards the emperor.
Looking at the emperor: "Uncle, is your name Wo?"
The emperor laughed heartily. "Yes, that's you. Uncle wants to thank you for the high-yield grain you exchanged for the people of Nanli Country."
Feng Jiu waved her hands and said, "Uncle, you don't have to thank me. I'm also a citizen of Nanli Country. This is what I should do."
The emperor said: "Good, a good sentence. It is all about Nanli and the people. Fengjiu will receive the order."
Feng Lao Si hurried forward and whispered in Feng Jiu's ear, "My daughter, kneel down before the emperor."
Fengjiu knelt down obediently, and the rest of the people also knelt down.
The Emperor said: "This is an auspicious sign from heaven, benefiting the mountains and rivers, and foretelling eternal peace in our Nanli. Therefore, I hereby confer upon the Princess Fengjiu of Fu'an County, and upon her the title of First-Rank Princess Guarding the Nation, and bestow upon her the title of Holy Venerable."
Everyone was shocked, as the queen's legitimate princess did not have such an honor.
Emperor: "Prime Minister Lan Yanfei has offended the Immortal Lord. He is fined 10,000 taels of silver, demoted three ranks, and ordered to reflect on his mistakes for three months."
Feng Jiu blinked her eyes, thought for a moment, stood up and said, "Uncle, I have a gift for you too. This is the Dingyan Pill given by Master. If you take it, you can stay young forever."
He gave a small porcelain bottle to the emperor, then ran to the queen, handed her another small porcelain bottle and said, "Give one to auntie as well."
The queen was very happy and gave the phoenix hairpin on her head to Fengjiu. Fengjiu then went back to her father.
The emperor gave Fengjiu a jade pendant with a dragon pattern: "Then uncle will give you a jade pendant as well. Seeing this jade is like seeing me in person."
Fengjiu also happily put it away. The women in the audience were so jealous that their eyes turned red. Dingyan Dan, what a good thing, why didn’t anyone give it to them?
The Queen has changed a lot already. Last time I heard that it was a reward from the Emperor to the Queen. This time, Princess Shengzun gave her a beauty pill, so the Queen will never age again.
The ladies in the audience were all thinking about how they could buy the Dingyan Pill from the Princess Protector of the Country.
Lan Yanfei had been taken out at this time. A girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old sitting in the row behind him looked at Feng Laosi with an infatuated look. She watched Feng Laosi pick up some food for Zhao Shi, and her eyes looked at Zhao Shi as if they were filled with poison.
Fengjiu sensed a sense of malice and looked over calmly, only to discover the vicious look this woman was giving her mother.
He couldn't help but pull Feng Laosi's sleeve. Feng Laosi looked in the direction his daughter was looking, and saw that the woman was looking at him with a disgusting look.
Seeing Feng Lao Si looking over and then lowering his head shyly, Feng Lao Si asked a young eunuch next to him: "Whose family is the woman in pink clothes opposite?"
The young eunuch took a look and said, "My Lord, that is Lan Yujiao, the granddaughter of Prime Minister Lan and the third daughter of the eldest son Lan."
The banquet had just begun when a group of dancers came on stage to perform. At this time, everyone began to find people they knew and chat with them. Many ladies and young ladies also came to greet Zhao.
Some officials from Feng Laosi's side also came over to toast, and Feng Jiu watched with great interest, swinging his two short legs. This was the only entertainment in ancient times, and the young ladies on the stage danced very beautifully.
Feng Laosi drank too much and had to pee urgently, so he called a young eunuch to take him to the toilet. When he came out, the young eunuch was gone.
He didn't care and just walked straight on the road. As soon as he reached a corner, a ball of pink fell straight towards him.
Feng Lao Si quickly took two steps back, and the woman in pink fell to the ground.
Lan Yujiao didn't expect Feng Laosi to retreat directly. She lay on the ground and looked at Feng Laosi pitifully: "Please help me, my lord. I think I sprained my ankle."
Feng Lao Si glanced at her, walked past him and went to the banquet hall.
Lan Yujiao stood up and stomped her feet, looking at Feng Laosi's back unwillingly.
Soon, the daughters of the ministers' families also began to perform on stage. Some performed music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and some of them danced. Even Fengjiu applauded.
The ladies of noble families in ancient times were not exaggerating, each of them had her own unique skills.
The emperor also rewarded her with some gold, silver and jewelry for her good performance. When Lan Yujiao came on stage, everyone opened their mouths wide.
She was wearing a gauze dress with a light veil covering her face, her figure was vaguely visible, and the men in the audience were all dazzled.
