If Qingyin could read minds, she would probably be completely stifled by the shamelessness of these aliens.
At the banquet, Qingyin's presence made things a little strange.
When Qingyin left, everyone lost interest in watching the performance at the banquet.
Emperor Xuanwu lost interest in the banquet. The thought that his precious daughter would be taken to the grasslands after the banquet made his heart ache, and he lost all desire to attend. He left shortly afterward.
Consort Zheng had already left when she saw Qingyin depart.
The mother and daughter returned to Huayun Palace together. Consort Zheng looked at her daughter, who was dressed beautifully and dazzlingly today, and her eyes were full of pride: "As expected of my Zhao'er, those people stared at her without blinking. If Zhao'er misses her mother on the grassland in the future, she can write to her mother."
Qingyin lowered her long eyelashes and obediently replied, "Okay."
Qingyin gently hugged Consort Zheng and winked playfully, "Mother, maybe one day you'll come to the grasslands to keep me company?"
"Alright, alright," Consort Zheng replied with amusement, but she didn't believe it at all. She was the emperor's concubine; how could she possibly leave the palace?

The Hall of Supreme Harmony was brightly lit, and Qingyin saw the emperor she was meeting for the second time. To be honest, Emperor Xuanwu was no longer a young emperor; his hair had already turned gray.
Fine wrinkles had appeared on his handsome face. He looked at Qingyin walking towards him from a distance with a complicated expression.
Upon seeing this, Qingyin was about to curtsy and say, "Your daughter greets Your Majesty..." but was interrupted by Emperor Xuanwu.
"It's just the two of us, father and daughter, today, so there's no need for us to pay our respects."
"Zhao'er, you didn't want to marry into the grasslands before, and Father Emperor didn't agree. This time, Father Emperor can give you one last chance. You can stay."
