Chapter 999
Seeing Zhuiyun's appearance, Yang Ruoqing also felt a little reluctant.
But he didn't let go.
"Licheng is no better than Xiushui Town. If you go with me, it will cause panic and bring danger to yourself."
"Chai Yun, my dear, I just went to Licheng for a run. I'll be right back when I'm done."
After some coaxing, Zhuiyun was finally sent away.
…
Licheng.
Nanwang Mansion.
This is the first time Yang Ruoqing has returned to the ancient palace.
I also visited the Royal Palace in my previous life, but it was only for tourist visits.
In addition to people, there are still people inside, and various tour guides lead various tourists with different accents around.
The noise and bustle ruined the overall look and feel, and you couldn't appreciate what you were looking for.
And now, I walked into Nanwang Mansion.
Yang Ruoqing finally experienced firsthand the atmosphere of life in an ancient wealthy family.
"It's true that there are people outside the world, and there is a heaven outside the world," she couldn't help but communicate with Luo Fengtang in a low voice on the way.
"I used to think that Magistrate Zou's house was quite luxurious, just like the one in the painting."
"Coming to the Nanwang Mansion now, these dignitaries really know how to enjoy themselves." She sighed secretly.
Luo Fengtang smiled lightly.
His eyes swept over all the surrounding scenery. Indeed, they all looked like paintings.
There was appreciation in his eyes, but he was not obsessed.
"When we become prosperous in the future, we will also build courtyards and manors according to the drawings, and plant all kinds of flowers and plants!" he said.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay."
No matter how big the yard is, no matter how luxurious the beds are, no matter how elegant the dining table is.
After all, there are only so many resources you can use.
She doesn't envy these luxurious and wealthy royal palaces, she just admires them.
She just wants a house facing the sea and with spring flowers blooming.
Be with the one you like, plant some flowers and plants in front of the door and behind the house.
Divide some vegetable gardens and raise some chickens.
Live a leisurely life with no worries about food and clothing.
…
The luncheon at Nanwang Mansion was held in a huge flower hall.
Inside the flower hall, there are carved railings and painted buildings, which are magnificent and magnificent.
This kind of banquet is not the way Yang Ruoqing used to eat with everyone in the village or in a restaurant.
A big Eight Immortals table was placed there, and then relatives and friends sat down one by one according to their age and seniority.
In Nanwang Mansion, this kind of banquet is shared.
There are many four-legged tables in the flower hall, and behind them are futon seats embroidered with silk thread.
The invited guests all sat cross-legged on futons, with wine and food placed on the low tables in front of them.
The low table placed in the middle of the flower hall naturally belongs to the host, Prince Nan.
The left and right sides are for guests.
Because today is a celebration banquet, one of the two biggest contributors to Licheng's rescue this time is Luo Fengtang.
The other one is Qi Xingyun, the King of Clouds who came from afar.
Luo Fengtang single-handedly rushed into the Black Lotus sect's alien camp, causing them to retreat in panic.
On the other hand, it was also thanks to Qi Xingyun's large army that the Black Lotus Sect's foreign troops were completely frightened.
Therefore, these two great heroes are the two focuses of today's banquet.
Qi Xingyun sat in the first seat on the left side of Prince Nan.
Luo Fengtang and his family, Yang Ruoqing, sat in the first seat on the right side of Prince Nan.
He happened to be face to face with Qi Xingyun.
The other invited guests were seated in order according to their rank.
As soon as Yang Ruoqing sat down, she noticed a strange gaze falling on her.
Following that gaze, she saw Qi Xingyun sitting opposite, looking at her.
At this time, the luncheon has not officially started yet, and the maids of the palace are shuttling through the lower rooms like swallows, orderly serving dishes and serving wine.
Qi Xingyun's sight was occasionally blocked by the figure of the maid.
But when the maid left, his eyes fell on Yang Ruoqing again.
His slender fingers were playing with the wine cup in his hand, and his narrow phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, looking thoughtful.
Out of politeness and gratitude for his rescue, Yang Ruoqing curled her lips and smiled at him.
Qi Xingyun was stunned for a moment, then nodded lightly as a response.
Soon, Prince Nan came.
Yang Ruoqing saw Prince Nan sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed by the palace guards.
Beside him, a beauty followed step by step.
Tall and plump, wearing a formal dress like a royal woman.
Her hair is like clouds, and it is tied up in a high bun on top of her head, with jewelry like gold steps on it.
The face is painted with makeup and powder, and the outline is delicate.
She has nobility and grace, yet still has the charm of a young girl.
Yes, she is Princess Bingqing and the legitimate daughter of Nan Wangye Luo Feixiong.
Seeing Princess Bingqing straighten her back and walk up to the throne without looking away.
Yang Ruoqing twitched her lips.
In order to wear this bun, the princess probably cut off a lot of maid's hair to make a wig for herself, right?
Last time, she cut off half of the hair on her head with a sword, making her almost bald.
Hey, power is really a good thing. Don’t be afraid if you don’t have hair, as long as others have it.
Over there, after Prince Nan took his seat, he began to talk about the opening remarks.
Yang Ruoqing listened and translated it in her own language: Today's celebration banquet is mainly to celebrate the rescue of Licheng.
Then Prince Nan personally named Luo Fengtang and Qi Xingyun, two great contributors, and expressed his gratitude again in public.
Next, there is the issue of reinforcement of Licheng's city defense and the defense of this area in the south.
Because the New Year is approaching, the southern barbarians in the south are ready to move when the Chinese New Year comes.
I want to come and defeat the common people of Daqi.
This year, the Black Lotus Sect also came over, and the two forces colluded together.
Prince Nan was worried that they would make a bigger move, so he arranged this task in front of everyone at the banquet.
Then, Prince Nan also consulted Luo Fengtang and Qi Xingyun for their opinions on these issues.
I want to hear what these two young talents think about this matter.
When Qi Xingyun and Luo Fengtang took turns exchanging opinions and opinions with Prince Nan, Yang Ruoqing listened with interest.
It is undeniable that the views put forward by Qi Xingyun are far-sighted and insightful.
But compared to Qi Xingyun, she more agrees with Luo Fengtang's approach of discussing matters as they arise and adapting measures to local conditions.
Yang Ruoqing looked at Luo Fengtang who was chatting beside her with piercing eyes, her eyes and brows filled with pride and pride.
Look, look.
This is my man, isn't it?
Suddenly, she felt a sharp gaze poking at her.
Even without looking, he knew it must be Princess Bingqing.
Yang Ruoqing didn't care at all, she cut it out casually. Only the weak would look at others with such envy and jealousy.
After chatting for a while, Prince Nan announced that the banquet had officially begun.
Then, there was a sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music.
Then, the royal singer appeared on the stage, playing, singing, and dancing in the hall.
