Zheng Sanlang's face was full of self-blame and shame. Looking at it, he wished he could pull his own son back and give him a few slaps, and then give Nie Chen a banner for his courageous actions.

He acted very open-minded, but the more he acted like this, the more Nie Chen felt that the other party was deeply scheming.

As a parent, when faced with the only son in the family, who would not be spoiled and spoiled and wish to spoil him to the sky, especially if he comes from a wealthy family like Zuoxiang?

My son had both of his legs broken by an outsider. If he were a normal person, he would probably want to fight him to the death.

Even if your own son made a mistake first, it is not your turn as an outsider to teach him a lesson.

He also broke two legs, which parent can endure this.

Apart from anything else, the lady next to the Prime Minister kept her face drooping. Although she turned her head away from Nie Chen, her hateful eyes glanced at Nie Chen from time to time.

You can't hide the look in someone's eyes that wants to kill you.

Nie Chen felt that if he were the left prime minister and faced the person who beat his son, even if he couldn't beat him, he would at least snort or not say anything. He would never be like now, apologizing and self-indulging. Responsible.

He is a county guard and a warlord. No matter how powerful he is, he is still a local man. He is no match for the Prime Minister of the imperial court. There is no need for the other party to look good on him.

He didn't know what the left prime minister's purpose was, but he was definitely a scheming person.

You have to be careful with this person.

Nie Chen sneered in his heart and said calmly on the surface,

"The Prime Minister's words are serious. Your Majesty is still young and young. It is inevitable that he will do wrong things due to impulse. The Prime Minister understands the righteousness and I admire him."

The Prime Minister Zuo was smiling on the surface, but he was cursing secretly in his heart. Nie Chen was only twenty years old, younger than his son, but he had the nerve to say that his son was too young. He was really shameless.

"That's good. I'm worried that Mr. Hou has a grudge in your heart. Mr. Hou is so open-minded, so I feel relieved. When the banquet starts, I will definitely give you a toast."

"Please, Mr. Prime Minister."

After saying hello to everyone, the third grader went to his seat.

Finally, everyone arrived, and the guards at the door also came in, stood in line by the wall, and closed the door of the hall.

"The Emperor and Queen are here, and the Prince and Princess are here!"

From the side door inside, Eunuch Cao's sharp voice came. As the music from the bands on both sides of the hall came, the emperor in black dragon robes and the queen in red phoenix robes appeared.

What the emperor is wearing today is not the imperial crown of yesterday, but the crown.

The crown is a rectangular flat plate with beaded curtains hanging down from the front and back to cover the emperor's cheeks. Its function is to add a sense of mystery to the emperor, and then prevent the courtiers from seeing clearly the emperor's expression, words and expressions, and exploring the emperor's heart and emotions.

The crown was very heavy, and it blocked the line of sight, making it very uncomfortable to wear. The emperor would only wear it when he was worshiping heaven and ancestors and holding large court meetings. Normally, he would wear a lightweight imperial crown.

The emperor held a longevity banquet today, and he wore a crown, which shows that it was intended to show the emperor's majesty.

The emperor took the queen and sat on the dragon chair. The prince took the princess to the front seat in the middle of the hall.

All the ministers stood up, bowed together and said,

"Greetings to Your Majesty, long live my emperor."

Today is a family banquet, and all the ministers are guests, so there is no need to kneel down.

"Everyone is safe."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Everyone sat down again, and the prince and the princess also went over and sat in their seats.

Eunuch Cao stepped forward and said a lot of tedious and lengthy words to the ministers, such as wishing the emperor a happy birthday, saying that the emperor is awesome, the ancestors are awesome, and all the ministers have worked hard.

These words made Nie Chen sleepy and he didn't remember them at all, so he didn't tell the author what he heard at that time. The author couldn't write it out, sorry.

After Eunuch Cao finished reading, the emperor delivered another speech, and everyone shouted, "Long live the emperor and may he live forever."

Weng Qiuchan sat upright and looked very nervous. After all, this was the first time to see the emperor and the first time to such an important occasion.

Nie Chen saw her nervousness, held her hand and said,

"Oh, it's so boring. When will the dinner start? I'm already sleepy. Now I just want to finish the dinner quickly and go back to hug my wife to sleep."

"hey-hey……"

Weng Qiuchan chuckled, then quickly calmed down his expression, and patted Nie Chen to tell him to be more serious.

But after Nie Chen said this, she really wasn't nervous anymore.

What's so great about the emperor is that he has two nostrils and one mouth, and he doesn't have as many soldiers as our men.

Finally, the emperor announced that the banquet had begun.

The music sounded again, and a dozen dancers came in from the side door, standing in the middle of the hall, dancing to the music.

The palace maids and eunuchs at the back were carrying delicacies covered with cotton covers, entering from the side door in a steady stream, and placing them on the tables of everyone in the hall.

"My dear friends, we raise a toast together to the heaven and the earth. May God's grace shine upon you!"

All the ministers drank it all in one gulp.

Then, everyone was filled with wine again, and the emperor said,

"My dear friends, let us raise a toast again to honor our ancestors and ask our ancestors to protect future generations and protect me, Da Feng, for thousands of years of good health!"

After the second cup is finished, it’s time for the third cup.

It's full again.

"The third cup, we respect the country and the country, and wish my country good weather and good weather, and peace and prosperity for the country and the people!"

Nie Chen was dumbfounded. Why the hell are we drinking? At least it’s two mouthfuls of food. Who can resist drinking like this?

Everyone came here with an empty stomach and planned to have a full meal at the banquet. It's a good idea for you. What does it mean to keep pouring wine on everyone?

If others knew what he was thinking, they would probably be shocked. Who the hell comes to the imperial banquet and eats according to the standard of hugging a banquet? They just eat casually for fun.

The most important thing is to make the emperor happy and listen to the emperor's instructions!

That's great for you, you really think you're here to have a feast.

As far as Nie Chen is concerned, I came all the way here and waited for half a month, but I still accepted the gift. If you don't let me get it back, I'll be sorry for myself.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone let go, holding wine glasses from time to time to bless the emperor and so on.

After many people gave their blessings, Left Prime Minister Zheng Sanlang also picked up the wine glass, stood up, and smiled at the emperor,

"Your Majesty, my Dafeng has good weather this year, a bumper harvest, and peace and prosperity for the country and the people. This is all the result of the blessings of our ancestors and the result of your Majesty's wisdom.

Thinking about it, the spirits of our ancestors in heaven would be pleased to see me singing and dancing in the wind and prospering in such a prosperous way. "

The emperor smiled, picked up the wine glass, and saluted Zheng Sanlang.

Just when everyone was smiling happily, the sound of wailing suddenly came from the hall.

Who is so ignorant that he dares to cry at the longevity banquet?
