"I was fishing for pearls in the South China Sea at the time, so I couldn't make it back in time," Qingya Zhenjun smiled apologetically, then looked at Beiming Yu, "By the way, Princess, I ran into Emperor Beiming when I came in. He's sending people to look for you. Shouldn't you go back to your father's side first, so he won't worry?"
"I understand." Bei Mingyu glanced at him, then looked at Su Fa with a bright smile. "Teacher Su, see you later."
After she finished speaking, she skipped and hopped away.
Qingya Zhenjun touched his nose. "Well, I'll take my leave now. I heard there's a lot of good wine at the palace banquet. I'll go check it out first. I won't disturb you two any longer."
He cupped his hands in greeting, turned, and left.
So only Feng Guang and Su Fa were left there. She said, "I suddenly feel... that little girl Bei Mingyu is quite interesting."
"Is that so?" Su Fa said casually, "Feng Guang used to tell me that the person he disliked the most was this Princess Beiming."
"I've heard you say before that I don't get along with her. Do you know why I don't get along with her?"
“Feng Guang told me that the so-called bad-tempered young lady setting only needs one person.” After thinking for a moment, Su Fa nodded affirmatively, “Feng Guang’s original words are indeed correct.”
Well, it's quite possible that she was the one who said those words.
"Um... let's go to the main hall first."
Sufa smiled and said, "Okay."
The magnificent hall was filled with people on both sides, except for the seat closest to the steps. Having been to the ancient world several times, Feng Guang knew that this seat was reserved for the most noble people besides the emperor and empress. Naturally, this was where she and Su Fa sat.
As soon as Su Fa appeared in the main hall with Feng Guang, there was complete silence. Feng Guang couldn't understand what was going on, so she could only look at Su Fa. Su Fa, on the other hand, calmly took her hand and sat down. Opposite them was a rugged-looking middle-aged man with a full beard, and next to him was Bei Mingyu, who must be the Great Emperor Bei Ming.
Feng Guang swept her gaze across the crowd. There was Qingya Zhenjun, and Jian Dan, who was still dressed in black. Taibai Jinxing was also there... As for the others, she didn't recognize them. She didn't know why they had become so quiet as soon as she appeared.
Fortunately, the quiet atmosphere didn't last long. The imposing Heavenly Emperor and the elegant Heavenly Empress appeared just in time. Just like the others, upon seeing the grand entrance, the two most noble people in the Heavenly Realm were stunned for a moment.
Soon, the Empress's expression changed. She had just changed direction when the Heavenly Emperor grabbed her hand. She turned around and saw the Heavenly Emperor's unfathomable gaze fixed on Su Fa. The Empress looked at Feng Guang again, her eyes flashing, and then walked up the steps with the Heavenly Emperor and sat in the main seat.
The Empress's movements and expressions didn't last long, but they were enough for everyone to see clearly. The crowd grew increasingly silent, and the atmosphere became deathly still.
Throughout the entire process, Su Fa's expression remained unchanged, calm and composed, seemingly oblivious to the many glances he received from outsiders.
But Feng Guang wasn't as calm as him. She felt uneasy and didn't understand why everyone was silent, let alone why her unfamiliar parents were behaving so strangely.
In this unsettling atmosphere, the man sitting next to her calmly raised his hand and conjured a plate of osmanthus cake from his storage space. He said as if no one else was there, "The pastries made by the chefs in the Heavenly Palace are no better than mine. Fengguang can have some to tide you over."
The atmosphere became even more unsettling.
