Chapter 512 [The Xin family is no longer the Xin family of the past]
When Jiang Lili saw that Master Yan was arranged like this by the Dog Emperor, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. It seemed that the Dog Emperor still did not put himself in the right position.
Yan Chaoyue raised his eyebrows. How could he just listen to the orders of the dog emperor?
His wife is a prairie Valkyrie, so he can sit wherever he wants!
Soon, the eunuchs who were in charge of adding tables and chairs came in carrying three sets of tables and chairs.
"Wait a minute, I don't think this is a good position by the door. I don't want to sit by the door."
He walked up to the emperor with his hands behind his back.
Emperor Qingning watched Yan Chaoyue's steps and was secretly shocked. How far would this grassland man go?
Do you want to sit on this throne now?
However, Yan Chaoyue took a detour and said to the group of Prince Zhao on the emperor's left: "This Khan thinks this position is good. His Highness Prince Zhao and the Crown Prince, can you give it to us?"
Yan Chaoyue felt quite pressured facing his father-in-law and brother-in-law. He stared at the fruit plate in front of his father-in-law, King Zhao, and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"The third young lady of your Xin family is well taken care of on our grassland. Is it not too much to ask me to take your seat?"
The court officials and concubines were all stunned. This Khan of the grassland actually treated Prince Zhao's Mansion like this. He was so arrogant that he even used the third daughter of the Xin family to threaten Prince Zhao!
When Emperor Qingning saw this scene, the discomfort in his heart disappeared in an instant. Hahaha, the two thorns in his eyes are now fighting!
Given the upright personalities of Prince Zhao and the Crown Prince, both sides would definitely...
"In that case, please take a seat, Khan."
Prince Zhao Xin Chong stroked his beard, leaned back in his chair and said cheerfully, "This area is very spacious, adding three more tables and chairs won't be a problem."
King Zhao's reaction shocked everyone. How could the iron-willed King Zhao compromise with the Khan of the grassland?
The smile on Emperor Qingning's face disappeared. He knew that Prince Zhao had become arrogant after returning to the capital, but he didn't expect that the backbone he swore to defend the Great Sheng Dynasty to the death had also been lost!
The eunuchs who added the tables and chairs were all Zhou Jushan's men. No matter what the emperor's expression was, after King Zhao finished speaking, the tables and chairs were quickly put up and arranged in an orderly manner.
"Prince Zhao is so generous and doesn't mind trivial matters!"
Yan Chaoyue sat down next to King Zhao with a bright smile on his face. The smile on his face was a smile from the heart. In this palace banquet full of dangers, he was sitting between his father-in-law and brother-in-law who were both highly skilled in martial arts. He felt so safe!
It can also bring the family closer~
As soon as Yan Chaoyue sat down, he couldn't wait to pick up his small wine glass and toast his father-in-law: "Father... Your Highness Prince Zhao, I toast you a glass!"
It was a close call, I almost shouted out the word "father".
King Zhao happily clinked glasses with Yan Chaoyue.
Everyone else at the palace banquet was stunned. They felt a mixture of emotions and couldn't even eat.
At the same time, a strong sense of crisis and uneasiness arose in their hearts. The Xin family, who were once the only family that could suppress the Bol grassland, were now smiling and talking to their enemies, and even toasting them.
Does this mean that no one in Dasheng has the confidence to resist the Bol Grassland, which is like a ferocious tiger?
Grief, regret, and unease filled the air... Everyone couldn't help but wonder how the once loyal Xin family could have become like this? Had the three years of exile truly chilled the hearts and minds of the Xin family, breaking their resolve?
The court officials who had watched the Xin family being wronged and exiled were now filled with regret.
They couldn't help but wonder, if they hadn't stood idly by, would the invincible Xin family have become so indifferent to the prestige of the Great Sheng country?
Even if it were possible to prevent the third daughter of the Xin family from marrying the enemy as a princess, would the Xin family not be constrained by the grassland people like this?
Unfortunately, there is no if, everything has already happened.
Emperor Qingning clenched his fists. Haha, he knew that the Xin family was unreliable.
"The Khan has come from afar, and Dasheng should play the role of host. We have prepared a surprising performance for the grassland envoys."
Emperor Qingning twirled the wine glass in his hand. "It's just that this performance would be more interesting if someone from the grassland envoys could participate in the interaction."
"I wonder if the Khan could send an envoy to participate? It would be great if there are people who are good at painting."
Yan Chaoyue straightened his robe and smiled slightly: "What a coincidence!"
"I have obtained a set of calligraphy from the Dasheng He family, which is very valuable. I have recently become quite interested in painting."
Yan Chaoyue rolled up his sleeves and stood up proudly: "Why not let this Khan go into battle himself?"
When Emperor Qingning heard that Yan Chaoyue was going to personally lead the battle, he was overjoyed. Great! He was really jumping into a trap. Then it would be the grassland Khan himself who would be humiliated, which would be even more of a show! And it would be a better way to vent his anger!
"Please wait a moment, Khan."
Emperor Qingning turned his gaze to Hou Xiaoxiao.
Hou Xiaoxiao smiled and clapped her hands.
The musicians began to play, and as the festive and lively music sounded, two painting tables were placed on the table one after another, and then a large cage covered with red cloth was carried by the guards to the middle of the banquet hall.
Just when everyone was curious about what was in the iron cage, the red cloth was suddenly lifted by the guards, and a iron-eating beast was in the cage.
Many people were shocked.
Hou Xiaoxiao came to the iron-eating beast, opened the cage, and said to it, "Come on, show me."
The iron beast climbed out of the cage and came to the crime scene where the painter was painting. It walked in a very naive manner.
Until the moment it grabbed the paintbrush with its claws, many people made sounds of surprise.
“Oh my god, it can hold a pen!”
"Isn't it going to paint?"
At this time, Hou Xiaoxiao spoke up: "Please both of you paint with the beautiful scenery of Mid-Autumn Festival as the theme."
After hearing Hou Xiaoxiao's command, the iron-eating beast Panda dipped his brush in ink and began to paint on the rice paper.
"Oh my god, this iron-eating beast can really paint. It looks quite realistic!"
"If this grassland Khan's painting isn't as good as a ferruginous beast, it would be a laughing stock~"
Seeing Yan Chaoyue standing in front of the painting without moving, Emperor Qingning asked knowingly, "What's wrong, Khan? Are your painting tools not suitable for you? Do you want me to replace it with a piece of calligraphy from the He family?"
Yan Chaoyue looked up at the Dog Emperor and crossed his legs on the stool. "Not really. This Khan is also curious about what the painting of this iron-eating beast will look like. I'm waiting for him to finish it so I can see it."
I was kidding. I was actually waiting for my wife to come and support me.
Emperor Qingning smiled and said, "This is also the first time I've seen an iron-eating beast paint. I'm curious too. Let's wait together."
"But Khan, please don't forget to show us your skills. We are curious about the paintings of the Iron-eating Beast, and we are also curious about your paintings."
The atmosphere in the banquet hall became unusually silent.
Everyone's eyes were on the painting of the iron-eating beast.
At this time, Yan Chaoyue also took the brush and began to write and draw on the rice paper in a random manner.
