When the palace maids saw that Lin Zhan finally put on the necklace that showed her wealth, they let her go.

Because of the queen's favor, Lin Zhan walked beside Liu Qiuchan, and the two of them slowly walked into the hall. At this moment, all the officials in the hall had already taken their seats, and they all stood up to salute the queen.

In the hall, there were uniform voices of people paying homage to Her Majesty the Queen. At this moment, Lin Zhan finally understood why some people were vying for the position of Queen.

After all, under the high Twin Phoenix Thrones, watching all the officials submit, the pleasure brought by that kind of power is unmatched.

Lin Zhan also had a small seat, and it was next to Liu Qiuchan, which also demonstrated her favored status, but her attention at the moment was on the foreign princess who was about to meet her.

In the original book, there is not much description of this foreign princess.

The foreign princess's initial target was not Jun Anqing, but she ended up marrying Jun Anqing by mistake. Naturally, her married life was extremely disharmonious.

In addition, Jun Anqing also had someone he loved, so the gap between the two became increasingly deeper. Finally, the foreign princess left Northern Qi in anger and returned to her own Nanzhao Kingdom.

Thinking of the brief description of the foreign princess in the original book, Lin Zhan became even more curious about this princess and looked outside the palace expectantly.

Finally, the eunuch outside announced, "Princess Yingduo of Nanzhao is here to see you."

"Announce." The emperor said majestically.

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes turned to look outside the hall. Before the people arrived, a sound was heard first. It was the sound of exquisite jades colliding, as pleasant as the sound of clear spring water falling on rocks.

A woman with a red veil on her head walked in slowly. She was wearing a tube top, revealing her slender white waist. She walked slowly in a red skirt that dragged on the ground.

When seeing this scene, everyone in Northern Qi, who was rather conservative, couldn't help but gasp.

Lin Zhan couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, and said with emotion, "Why is the dress of this Nanzhao princess somewhat similar to that of the people in Xinjiang?"

Hearing Lin Zhan's thoughts, Jun Beiqi looked at her with some surprise. He didn't expect that Lin Zhan had seen such exotic outfit before.

However, Lin Zan did not notice Jun Beiqi's gaze and was still watching with interest.

Some pedantic and old-fashioned officials even lifted up their sleeves to cover their eyes, and even said that it was immoral, but they couldn't help but glance in the direction of Princess Yingduo.

But looking at the emperor, he seemed to be able to remain calm. He looked straight at the foreign princess as she walked up to him, slowly lowered her body, and saluted with her hands crossed in front of her chest.

"Princess Yingduo of Nanzhao pays her respects to the Emperor of Northern Qi." Princess Yingduo spoke in a gentle voice with a hint of alluring charm.

Lin Zhan was almost softened by the princess' voice. She is truly a natural beauty!

"Princess, please stand up. You have come from a long distance and must be tired. Please sit down and rest for a while." The emperor was very polite and looked at Princess Yingduo with a twinkling eye.

Princess Yingduo bowed again and then sat opposite Lin Zhan. What a coincidence!

Because this made it convenient for Lin Zan to appreciate the beauty in front of him, he looked at her from top to bottom three times, and he couldn't help but sigh that the princess in front of him had no flaws at all.

Her skin was as white as milk, and although half of her face was covered, her charming and alluring eyes still made people almost unable to control themselves.

After the princess took her seat, the envoys from the Nanzhao Kingdom presented gifts for marriage. The emperor was very pleased and gave many gifts in return. The atmosphere of the banquet was full of joy.

But this time Princess Yingduo came to marry a foreign prince after all, and everyone's eyes were on the two most suitable princes.

All the officials of Northern Qi knew that Princess Yingduo could not marry Jun Beiqi and become the Crown Princess, so they were all wondering in their hearts whether the Emperor would marry this foreign princess to Jun Beiyu or Jun Anqing?

The emperor did not beat around the bush and directly set his eyes on Jun Beiyu and Jun Anqing, and introduced his two proud princes to Princess Yingduo.

But what no one expected was that Princess Yingduo said to the emperor in a rather proud tone, "Your Majesty of Northern Qi, please allow me to marry you. However, according to the rules of our Nanzhao, we have to test the princes who are to marry you. I wonder if Your Majesty agrees."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials below became dissatisfied and angrily scolded Nanzhao, saying that it was just a tiny country and yet it dared to be picky about the prince, which was simply treasonous.

The noisy noises from the people below made Lin Zhan admire Princess Yingduo even more.

After all, they said they came for a marriage alliance, but in fact the Nanzhao Kingdom only sent Princess Yingduo as a hostage of the Northern Qi.

In such a situation where she was surrounded by enemies on all sides, Princess Yingduo still dared to say such words. Her courage was truly commendable.

The emperor seemed to be surprised by the princess's courage. He was not angry, but laughed heartily. "If that's the case, then what do the men of Northern Qi have to fear?"

As soon as the words fell, Jun Beiyu and Jun Anqing stood up at the same time, clasped their hands and said in a loud voice, "Your son is not afraid."

The two men's powerful words made the emperor very satisfied.

Princess Yingduo also smiled. "As long as the two princes can solve the three puzzles of my Nanzhao Kingdom, you can marry me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the envoys from Nanzhao Kingdom brought three trays. Jun Anqing was anxious, so he walked over and opened the first tray. He found a strange object with nine holes connected on it.

When Lin Zhan saw that thing, his eyes lit up and he blurted out, "This is the Nine-Link Chain."

"Li Zi, do you know what this is?" Jun Anqing also looked over with some surprise.

Because of Lin Zhan's words, everyone's eyes fell on her. Princess Yingduo looked at Lin Zhan with a bit of surprise in her eyes, but still replied with a smile. "Yes, it is indeed the Nine Links. I didn't expect that someone in Northern Qi would recognize it."

"This is one of the most difficult puzzles in my Nanzhao Kingdom. If the two princes of Northern Qi can solve all nine connected rings, they will be considered successful."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Beiyu and Jun Anqing were already eager to try.

Jun Anqing took the lead, walked over and picked it up, then started a series of operations, but he was a simple-minded person with strong limbs.

I had no idea whatsoever about anything that required the brain, so after spending a long time trying to figure out a problem, I still couldn't figure out a single thing, and I couldn't help but feel a little angry.

Then Jun Anqing angrily threw the Nine Rings into Jun Beiyu's arms and ignored it.
