At the end of the banquet, Aunt Lian invited the Queen, Princess and all the ladies present to come into the hall to have tea. The hall has been tidied up, and the male guests are sitting in the main hall. Aunt Lian accompanied the female guests to have tea and chat in the side hall. Mrs. Lian brought Jun Yao to offer tea to bring good fortune. The female guests took the tea and gave them gifts. Jun Yao took the gifts and thanked them one by one.
After serving tea to the guests in the side hall. The maids went out to the tea room to make tea and brought it in, and then brought Jun Yao to the main hall to serve tea to the guests.
Arriving at the hall, Jun Yao was the first to offer tea to the emperor. Jun Yao knelt down beside the emperor with a tea cup in hand and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please have some tea!"
The emperor happily took the tea cup, took out an exquisite wooden box from his sleeve and placed it on Jun Yao's tea tray.
Thank you Jun Yao! "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
The emperor was very happy, and the natural majesty on his face faded. He looked at Jun Yao kindly and said, "Well! Little Yaoyao has grown up. After today, little Yaoyao will be an adult!"
Jun Yao served tea to all the guests one by one, first to the elders and teachers, and then to the elder brothers. Respecting King Qin, Jun Yao knelt down in front of King Qin and picked up the tea cup. "Brother Ye, please have tea!"
King Qin got up from the chair and helped Junyao stand up without taking the teacup.
After getting up, Jun Yao bowed and said obediently, "Brother Ye, please drink tea!"
King Qin took the teacup and did not drink the tea immediately. Instead, he placed the teacup on the small square table next to him. Then he picked up a square box from the chair. The box was exquisite and luxurious. King Qin handed the box to Jun Yao.
Jun Yao took the box, bowed, and thanked me obediently! "Thank you, brother Ye!"
King Qin looked at Jun Yao tenderly and said, "Open it and see if you like it!"
Jun Yao nodded. "Okay! Let me open it and take a look." He reached out and pressed the button gently to open the box. Inside was a complete set of exquisite jewelry, including waist chains. Seeing these, Jun Yao's eyes flashed with surprise. "I didn't expect that my senior brother, who is either out fighting or training soldiers in the military camp, would know how to give his daughter jewelry. The jewelry is very beautiful and has good aesthetic taste."
Jun Yao looked up and saw King Qin's expectant eyes. Jun Yao looked very happy, "I like it very much, thank you Brother Ye! Brother Ye is interested. The jewelry is in line with my taste!"
King Qin's face was full of love, and his deep eyes exuded warm and soft tenderness. "As long as you like it, of course brother understands your taste! After all, we grew up together, who else knows you better than brother!"
Everyone in the hall looked at them, and the interaction between the two was very warm! They look so good at each other, and the pictures are so beautiful and attractive.
Qingjun's eyes were full of hatred. Of course, no one appreciated his rich expression changes, everyone's attention was on the beautiful couple!
Qingjun felt very uncomfortable, and his face looked extremely ugly. "The King of Qin is very considerate in giving Jun Yao gifts. It can be seen that they are not finished products bought from a jewelry store, but are all high-end. When Jun Yao served him tea just now, he felt that he was more important in Yaoyao's heart than King Qin. But now It was very dazzling to see the scene of the two people interacting warmly. Yaoyao did not refuse King Qin’s thoughtfulness, King Qin deliberately touched Yaoyao with his heart, and Yaoyao looked very happy!"
A large number of gifts were piled on the counter of Junyao's bedroom, including gold bars, various jewelry, jade, agate, gemstones, silks, cloths, etc. Because Prince Yuqing became sworn brothers to the emperor, he and his other princes were also considered related. Moreover, when King Yuqing was young, he fought on the battlefield and had many soldiers and friends! The emperor, the queen, several princes and the prince's concubines went to the mansion to attend Jun Yao's wedding. All relatives and friends are here too! The palace of Prince Yuqing was bustling with activity.
On the day when the haircut is received, the recipient will serve tea to the guests and receive gifts, which means accumulating blessings. The more gifts received, the greater the blessing.
Time passed in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye it was almost midnight. The emperor and the queen drove back to the palace. All the guests also left the Yuqing Palace one after another, and after the guests had dispersed. King Qin played chess with King Yuqing. The servants were busy preparing food for the dinner.
Jun Yao brought the fruit plate and sat next to King Yuqing. He picked up a grape and brought it to King Yuqing's mouth. The corners of his mouth were raised, and his eyes were curved like crescent moon hooks. "Father, come one!"
King Yuqing looked at Jun Yao, his eyes full of love, and said kindly: "Thank you so much, Xiaobao! Alas! Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, Xiaobao has grown into a big girl! When will your friends arrive? At noon you Uncle Qi and the others are here, why doesn’t Yu Ling come?”
"Well! Sister Yu Ling won't come until the dinner. She has gone out and should be in Jindu now. The dinner will start at You hour, and they will come later. Senior brother, help me accompany the teachers from the academy and the senior students. I'll leave the sisters to my senior brother, thank you for your trouble!" After saying that, Jun Yao handed a piece of cantaloupe to King Qin.
King Qin took the fruit. His tone was gentle and doting, "That's right. There's no need to be polite to me. Don't worry! Leave it to me."
The three of them played several games of chess in the pavilion. Jun Yao's friends, teachers from the academy and other guests arrived one after another. Jun Yao stood at the gate to greet her friends. Every guest and friend's eyes lit up when they saw Jun Yao and they praised her.
The whole family, old and young, was greeting the guests to take their seats. When the hour came, the banquet started on time. During the dinner, King Qin was like a host, greeting the guests and toasting with them.
When King Qin was toasting with the teachers, one of the teachers spoke. "The prince is really doting on the little princess! Why don't you form a family? You are a talented man and a beautiful woman. You are really a perfect match."
After hearing what the teacher said, King Qin felt very happy, "Thank you very much, teacher for your compliments! According to the teacher's words, Yaoyao is my junior sister, so of course I must love her dearly! Of course, if we can really become a family, it would be even better if we become more intimate!"
Jun Yao sat at a table with her sisters, except Ru Yan, who was a concubine. All the others are daughters of aristocratic families whose wealth is among the best.
Jun Yao picked up the glass of peach blossom wine and stood up. "Come, let's have a drink. Thank you sisters for coming to my birthday party. I'm very happy! Cheers!"
The ladies also stood up, raised their wine glasses and clinked them with Jun Yao. Yu Ling said, "Sister, I wish you the best! At the age of hair, you are a big girl! I wish you the best, may we win the hearts of the people and never be separated until we grow old together!" After saying this, they burst into laughter again.
Their table was so busy that the people at the table frequently turned to look at them.
Several noble gentlemen picked up their wine glasses and walked over to them. The leading young master is Tian Jun, the grandson of Grand Master Tian. Tian Jun looked at the young master beside him and said, "Come, let's all toast to the princess to celebrate her birthday!"
Jun Yao also stood up politely, picked up her wine glass and prepared to drink with them. Suddenly, Jun Yao seemed to have thought of something. She looked at the sisters at the same table and said, "Let's repay Mr. Tian and the others together!"
After listening to Jun Yao's words, the noble ladies picked up their wine glasses and stood up to toast and clink glasses with them!
Seeing Tian Jun and others preparing to take turns serving Junyao wine. King Qin came over, stood beside Jun Yao and said: "Mr. Tian, Yaoyao can't drink too much. You guys are taking turns like this, and Yaoyao can't bear it. How about Mr. Tian drinking with them?" King Qin pointed at the other noble girls and said.
Tian Jun was a little reluctant, but there was nothing he could do. The man in front of him was King Qin, the God of War. Even if you give him a hundred courages, he wouldn't dare to refute King Qin's face.
After some thought, Tian Jun said, "Okay, then I'll toast the beauties again!" After the toast, Tian Jun left with the young men around him.
When the banquet was reaching its climax, someone came from the palace. A father-in-law walked into the banquet hall with the imperial edict in his hand and the guards. The official said: "The imperial edict has arrived! King Qin, Yuqing and the Palace accept the edict!"
Jun Yao had a bad feeling. King Qin and King Yuqing brought the whole family and knelt down in front of the father-in-law. "My son, I will take the order! I will take the order!"
The father-in-law began to read out the imperial edict: "By the destiny of heaven, the emperor issued an edict: I, by the favor of heaven, rule all directions, inherit the past and initiate the future, and revitalize me in Dongxu. Today there is a happy event, related to the continuation of the royal family, which requires the issuance of an edict.
After careful consideration, I have found out that I have the beloved daughter of the loyal and virtuous imperial minister, who has a kind and chaste character, possesses both political integrity and talent, and is truly the treasure of Dongxu.
My beloved son, the King of Qin, has both good looks and courage, and is truly a pillar of the royal family.
The combination of the two will surely prosper the bloodline of my royal family and consolidate the security of our country, Dongxu.
I hereby give you my beloved daughter in marriage to the King of Qin. This girl's name is: Wang Junyao. She is of noble birth, well-read in poetry and books, and is well versed in books and principles. She will surely bring glory to our royal family.
His father, Wang Hetian, had a hereditary title and was loyal to the royal family and unswervingly determined. His mother: Lian Fang, who came from a famous family, was virtuous and kind, and raised this talented girl, who was extremely smart, beautiful, and talented.
The King of Qin was also an elite member of the royal family, respecting his father's orders and inheriting Heaven's favor. His mother: Empress Zhuang Rong, a virtuous and kind-hearted mother who respected the world. She raised this son with great kindness and love. She inherited the legacy of her father and safeguarded the country and made her contribution to the country. His son's name is Shao Xiuye. Combining with Wang Junyao is truly a match made in heaven.
After the marriage between the two surnames of King Shao is completed, the two surnames will be combined to raise royal descendants. I have high hopes for it, and hope that the harp and harp will sing harmoniously, and we will grow old together.
I grant him the privilege of being able to decide on the wedding date independently.
This edict is announced to the world, and the envoys will know it! "
