Tonight, the entire Prince Ding Mansion was ablaze with lights. The main hall in the front yard of the Prince Ding Mansion, which was used for entertaining guests, was also full of guests. Sitting at the head of the table were naturally Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li. On the right side were Mr. Qingyun and the Xu family. On the left side were Chen Xiufu, Xu Qingchen, and the important civil and military officials of the Prince Ding Mansion. Further down were the guests and envoys of various countries.
Below, Mo Suiyun and Mo Jingyu sat in the seats of the guests of Da Chu State, but both of them looked a little absent-minded. Opposite them, in the seats of the West-Hill envoys, an official behind Lei Tengfeng whispered in Lei Tengfeng's ear, "I haven't seen the little Heir of the Prince Ding Mansion all day."
Lei Tengfeng looked up and saw that the seat belonging to the little Heir, Mo Yuchen, was still empty below Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li. And he didn't seem to see Mo Yuchen when the two children were doing their homework at noon. Lei Tengfeng glanced at the calm Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "We are guests, don't worry about these things."
Lei Tengfeng didn't care, but it didn't mean that others didn't care. A man from the Western Region stood up and asked curiously, "Prince Ding, why don't I see the little Prince of your mansion?" It was no wonder that these envoys were curious. The Western Region didn't have much contact with the Central Plains. Others had seen Mo Xiaobao once or twice, but these envoys had never seen Mo Xiaobao. Naturally, they were very curious about the future heir of the Prince Ding Mansion.
Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly and said, "The Heir is not feeling well and will come later."
It was just a simple sentence, but everyone present could understand the meaning and thoughts behind it. Thus, some people's expressions changed slightly, some looked pensive, and some looked worried.
Mo Xiuyao glanced at the crowd below, and his gaze paused for a moment on Mo Jingyu and Mo Suiyun. Mo Jingyu and Mo Suiyun immediately felt a heavy pressure pressing down on them as if it was real. Mo Suiyun's face paled, and he hurriedly lowered his head. The wine cup in Mo Jingyu's hand shook, and some fine wine spilled out onto his sleeves. Ignoring the gazes of the people around him, Mo Jingyu hurriedly put down his wine glass and clenched his fists tightly under the table.
Mo Xiuyao stood up, raised a glass of wine and smiled: "Today is the first birthday of my son, Yu Feng, and my daughter, Yu Ya, thank you all for coming from afar. I and the Princess Consort propose a toast to everyone. "Beside Mo Xiuyao, Ye Li also raised her wine cup and proposed a toast to the guests below. Everyone hurriedly stood up and said, "We should be the ones wishing the Heir and Princess a happy birthday." The guests and the host drank a cup, and the hall instantly became lively. Mo Xiuyao waved his hand, and the maids wearing the Prince Ding Mansion's uniform immediately came forward to pour wine for everyone. The sound of musical instruments faintly sounded in the hall, and beautiful dancers started to dance. The entire hall was bustling with noise and excitement.
After a song and dance ended, the envoys from various countries came forward to present their congratulatory gifts. The gifts from the Prince Ding Mansion's subordinates were naturally normal. Some were treasures that symbolized peace and joy, and there were also some interesting things among them. However, the gifts from the various countries were different. Not only did they flaunt their country's treasures, they also faintly had the intention of competing with other countries.
The Northern Tribes had just fought an earth-shattering battle with the Prince Ding Mansion, and had suffered heavy casualties. However, they were also the country that was most anxious to repair their relationship with the Prince Ding Mansion. Hence, the Northern Tribes were the first country to present gifts, and the gifts were not ordinary. The moment the two boxes were opened, the contents of the boxes shocked everyone present. In the cage on the left was a snow-white, flawless, and adorable blue-eyed fox. On the other side, in a box, there was indeed a huge green lotus flower. Although this lotus flower had been plucked, it was still in full bloom in a box carved from cold jade, as if it had just been plucked from a pond. Beside the lotus flower was a dark green lotus seed pod.
The others were fine, but when Shen Yang and Doctor Lin saw the items in the jade box, their eyes immediately lit up.
Yelu Hong smiled and said, "These are the treasures of the Northern Tribes, the blue-eyed snow fox and the fiery lotus. We wish the little prince and princess a happy birthday. "The crowd was in an uproar. Needless to say, the fiery lotus had a deep relationship with the Prince Ding Mansion. There was even a time when Mo Xiuyao's life depended on this lotus flower. However, after Ye Li found a replacement for the Sky Falling Flower, the idea of plucking the fiery lotus was never mentioned again. However, the fiery lotus was not as simple as an antidote to frost poison. If it was in the hands of a godly doctor like Shen Yang, its effects would not be inferior to the Sky Falling Flower.
As for the blue-eyed snow fox, it was known as the treasure of the Northern Tribes. Even in the Northern Tribes, it was rarely seen. It was said that it lived on the snowy peak of the Western Tribes, just like the fiery lotus. Ordinary people would be lucky enough to be able to catch a glimpse of it. The fur of the blue-eyed snow fox was even more precious in the Western Regions. It was priceless. Not only was the blue-eyed snow fox smart and cute, its fur, flesh, and even blood were all treasures. The people in the Central Plains were fine, but many of the envoys from the Western Regions were envious of the little fox in the white jade cage.
Ye Li smiled and nodded, "Thank you for the trouble, Crown Prince Yelu. Xin 'er will definitely like the gift from Your Highness." Although Xin' er was still young, it was not suitable for her to get close to pets, but this blue-eyed snow fox was still young. In a few years, when Xin 'er grew up, she would be a good companion.
Yelu Hong smiled. "How could that be? On behalf of my Royal Father, this Prince congratulates Prince Ding and Princess Consort. At the same time, this Prince hopes that our two countries will be prosperous and peaceful. "Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly," This Prince offers a toast to the Crown Prince. "
Yelu Hong nodded and raised his wine cup. "It should be me who proposes a toast to Prince Ding. Please."
Everyone present knew that the Prince Ding Mansion and the Northern Tribes had signed a peace treaty. Yelu Hong's declaration was just for the sake of the envoys present. It meant that the dispute between the Prince Ding Mansion and the Northern Tribes would end here. After all, the Northern Tribes had been weakened by the Prince Ding Mansion, and there were many small countries in the Western Regions that were eyeing them covetously. In this world, no one could easily live a peaceful life.
Then, Lei Tengfeng and Mo Jingyu also came forward to present their gifts. They were all rare treasures. Although Princess Anxi and Pu 'a had not found the little prince's whereabouts, they also presented their gifts appropriately. However, given the relationship between Princess Anxi and the Prince Ding Mansion and the Xu family, their gifts were naturally not as scheming as the others. They only gave a few precious specialties from Nanzhao.
Later on, the envoys from the Western Regions presented even more strange gifts. Many of them were things that the people of the Central Plains had never seen before. It was an eye-opener for many people. Although Prince Ding had no intention of ascending the throne, it was already a grand occasion where people from all over the world came to congratulate him.
In the midst of the singing and dancing, some of the guests suddenly groaned in pain while holding their abdomens. Soon, like a plague, more than half of the people in the hall had collapsed. After a while, the remaining half also collapsed. Everyone seemed to have been stripped of their bones, lying weakly on the ground, unable to move. Only Mo Xiuyao, who was the most powerful among them, was still sitting steadily. However, his expression was not good.
