These ministers had all received notice two days prior to attend the banquet, so they were all very curious about the identity of this distinguished guest. Before the guest arrived, they couldn't help but peek and wait.
In their minds, the other party must be a very noble, tall, and distinguished person, and they were all quite looking forward to seeing him.
However, when they saw Jun Feijue and his entourage, all the civil and military officials were stunned.
What is Your Majesty doing bringing a group of children back?
It's unlikely they were illegitimate children. After all, the Empress and the Phoenix King's relationship was absolutely beyond question.
So, are these children the VIPs in the story?
The ministers were all dumbfounded. What happened to the noble and imposing figure they were promised?
Isn't this VIP a little too young?
besides…
Upon seeing the black cauldron in Ji Fanya's hand, the officials' expressions became even more peculiar.
Why are you carrying such a big pot to a banquet?
Could it be that you're thinking of taking the leftovers home?
"May Your Majesty enjoy long life and happiness, and welcome Miss Jun."
However, despite their inner turmoil, once they regained their senses, all the ministers immediately followed the Empress's instructions, bowing their heads and clasping their hands in utmost respect.
"My beloved subjects, rise."
The Empress raised her hand and extended it to Jun Feijue, saying, "Miss Jun, how about joining me for a drink?"
"hiss…"
Before Jun Feijue could answer, a faint gasp was heard from inside the hall.
That was the reaction of the ministers, who were shocked.
The Empress had entertained distinguished guests before, but even envoys from the Bujiang Dynasty, of such high rank, were seated in a position second only to the Empress.
However, this little girl actually got the Queen to personally invite her to sit at the same table, which represents equality in status!
What an honor, what great importance!
Many ministers couldn't help but secretly scrutinize Jun Feijue. Apart from her exceptionally beautiful appearance, they couldn't see anything special about this little girl.
It was only then that Emperor Moyu noticed that the seats for civil and military officials were located on the lower sides of the main hall, with only one large seat at the highest point and six seats in the middle level below.
If Jun Feijue's position is with the Empress, then adding Shi Wuxie's and the beast pets, there will be exactly six.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Moyu's eyes flickered slightly. He had to admit that, although he did not know the other party's purpose, the Empress had indeed shown her utmost sincerity.
“My master is still young, and I have always taken care of his meals.”
Seeing Jun Feijue look up at him, Di Moyu's eyes warmed, and he looked at the Empress and said calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I'm afraid it may be inconvenient."
"I see. No problem. You may accompany me to my seat."
Upon hearing this, the Empress was not angry at all. Instead, she smiled generously and took the lead in walking towards the main seat.
This move shocked the ministers and made them even more curious.
As the ruler of a country, the Empress would not naturally show kindness to anyone without a reason. What was it about this little girl that made the Empress value her so much?
"In that case, I shall respectfully comply."
Although the Empress held a prestigious position in the Wuya Dynasty, to Emperor Moyu from the Empire, she was actually just an ordinary person with decent strength.
Therefore, he acted very calmly, and followed after Jun Feijue with his hand.
Jun Feijue sat beside the Empress, while Di Moyu sat down beside Jun Feijue, ready to serve her food.
