Song Tingwan stared at the jade pendant on the waist of the second prince of Wei State, and recalled what happened on the way to the palace with Miaoyi.
At that time, she was walking on the gravel road holding Miaoyi's hand. She accidentally tripped over a stone and pushed Miaoyi accidentally.
Miaoyi was knocked forward, as if she had thrown someone into a pond by the roadside...
In a flash, Song Tingwan only remembered that the man had a jade pendant hanging around his waist. It was very round and smooth, and tied with an ink-colored rope.
Song Tingwan reacted and grabbed Miaoyi in time, preventing her from falling into the pool.
The person in the pool climbed up, his face covered in mud and his appearance was unrecognizable.
Although Miaoyi was a princess, she was not one to put on airs. She asked the palace maids and eunuchs next to her to take the man to change clothes and apologized.
The man just stood in the pool in a daze, not saying a word.
They were in a hurry to attend the banquet and did not stay there for long.
Miaoyi also asked Yueyue to go back and give that person some treasures...
The man who was just standing in the pond covered in mud is the second prince of Wei Kingdom?
Song Tingwan swallowed his saliva.
She gave him such a big gift on her first day in Beijing. She just hoped he didn't see her and Miaoyi's faces clearly...
"Greetings, Emperor of Daqing." Qi Suyun performed the traditional Wei State etiquette. "I am here on a diplomatic mission to Daqing on behalf of the Wei State. I have brought some small items with me. I hope they will catch your eye."
Xiao Qing didn't take it personally because of his late arrival. "Oh? I've heard that the Second Prince of Wei, Qi Suyun, is a collector and has many rare treasures."
"Since it was brought by the Second Prince, it must be a treasure. Could you please present it now so that everyone here can take a look?"
Qi Suyun stood in the center of the hall, a wicked smile on his face. "Of course."
Qi Suyun clapped his hands, and a line of people dressed in Wei national costumes rushed into the hall. Each of them held a tray in their hands. The items on the trays were large or small, and all covered with red velvet.
In the hall, everyone in Daqing held their breath and was very curious about the items sent by the Wei Kingdom.
Song Tingwan's eyes also fell on the red cloths.
Isn’t it said that Wei State is short of supplies?
She was quite curious about how rare the tribute they offered would be.
Qi Suyun naturally felt everyone's curiosity, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and snapped his fingers.
The maid standing first walked forward and lifted the red cloth.
In an instant, the hall was as bright as day!
Song Tingwan couldn't help but squint her eyes.
It took me a while to adjust and see clearly that what was lying quietly on the tray was a huge night pearl!
Bigger than a fist!
To be honest, she had seen many rare treasures when she was with the Song family, but she had never seen such a big night pearl!
Everyone present gasped.
My eyes were glued to the night pearl and I couldn't take them away.
Qi Suyun covered the red cloth back, hiding his thin lips and raised them lightly, "These are the tears of the mermaids, rare in a thousand years. They are the heartfelt gift from my country Wei."
Xiao Qing, sitting on the dragon throne, was very satisfied. He laughed and raised his hands, "Hahahaha, this pearl is indeed rare. Thank you for your thoughtfulness."
Next, Qi Suyun introduced the treasures one by one, speaking at a moderate pace, but his words were so exaggerated that the emperor couldn't stop laughing.
The people from Qing present were all used to seeing all kinds of rare objects, but they still couldn't take their eyes off Qi Suyun and the treasures he presented.
The Wei people on the opposite side were full of pride, as if they were not here to pay tribute but to show off.
He comes with bad intentions...
Song Tingwan thought so.
But that shouldn't be the case. Isn't it said that the monarch of Wei State believes in supernatural things like gods and goddesses and dragons, so he came to seek peace?
"Very good! The treasures presented by the ambassador today have truly opened my eyes." Xiao Qing smiled brightly and waved his long sleeves. "Let the banquet begin!"
Qi Suyun sat down, and the maids from Wei State also left.
The palace maids began to serve the dishes, and the singing and dancing that had been arranged long ago also began.
Song Tingwan temporarily suppressed the messy thoughts in his mind.
When the enemy comes, we will fight him with soldiers; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. Let’s eat first.
Song Tingwan ate a piece of meat and met the half-smile in the opposite eye, and his heart skipped a beat.
Wouldn't he recognize her?
No, no, no.
Song Tingwan avoided his gaze very naturally and picked up some food for herself as if nothing had happened.
His eyes were covered with mud and he couldn't recognize it.
The performance ended and everyone left.
After a while, a graceful woman walked to the center of the hall, swaying gracefully.
A thin veil covered her face, her clothes were not revealing, and the colors were light, but she was still very charming.
Song Tingwan couldn't help but follow her with his eyes.
So beautiful and eye-catching.
Just like a star, he has an aura that catches people's attention.
The woman had a pair of beautiful eyes, with a pair of curved willow-shaped eyebrows above them.
Her beautiful eyes are full of charm.
Song Tingwan always felt that she and Ye Ranran were very similar.
There was no winking or posing, but she gave people a very charming feeling.
Like Daji...
The beauty bowed to the emperor, and the palace maids behind her quickly brought up a guqin and a guqin stand.
The beauty didn't say a word, just sat down, got into position and started playing the piano.
The sound of the piano is melodious and pleasant to the ear.
Song Tingwan didn't know much about music, but he was fascinated by it.
Everyone present was immersed in this touching music.
Even Qi Suyun from Wei State couldn't help but put down his chopsticks.
After the song ended, the beauty bowed gracefully again.
