February 2nd, Dragon Raises Its Head!
This day was not only the traditional day of spring plowing, but it was also an important festival for the divine dragon to pray for rain.
However, to the citizens of Xianyang City, this day was not only a traditional festival, but also a day of celebration for the entire city.
This was because this day was the day of the engagement of the Emperor Qin's Kingdom's famous Princess Ling Fei and the Hundred Chi Gate's Vice Sect Master, Grandmaster of the Pill Dao, Yu Haoran.
In fact, the entire Xianyang City had already become lively after the engagement was announced. However, the atmosphere reached its peak on the day of the engagement ceremony.
In the Imperial Palace, the originally solemn and dignified atmosphere was rendered jubilant by the colorful lanterns and banners.
In front of the Qingyuan Hall, the usually silent atmosphere used to entertain the courtiers had long been broken by the hubbub of voices and laughter.
In the entire Qingyuan Hall, the entire palace was filled with an incomparably festive atmosphere.
"Prince Yi Feng has arrived!"
Just as the many guests and courtiers in the Qingyuan Hall were chatting with a relaxed expression, a sharp voice announcing the arrival of the guests caused the lively atmosphere in the Qingyuan Hall to instantly become as quiet as an iceberg.
At this moment, everyone present had the same thought. Why would Prince Yi Feng, who was already at odds with the Emperor Qin, come?
However, what made them even more shocked was that the eunuch in charge of announcing the guests announced the gifts that Prince Yi Feng had brought.
"Nine Eastern Sea Bright Night, nine Western Sea Jade Sun Pearls, nine Northern Sea Deep Thought Pearls, and nine Western Sea Setting Sun Pearls."
It was the most representative pearl of the four seas. Princess Ling Fei's famous pearl had a good reputation. From this point, one could see Prince Yi Feng's intentions.
"Nine pieces of Southern Region Fourth Grade Ninth Grade Warm Yang Jade, nine pieces of Northern Region Fourth Grade Ninth Grade Fiery Yang Jade, nine pieces of Eastern Region Fourth Grade Ninth Grade Machine Yang Jade, nine pieces of Western Region Fourth Grade Ninth Grade Solitary Yang Jade."
The most representative famous jade of the Eastern, Western, Western, and Western Regions also wanted to have the reputation of being a proud son of the heavens. It also proved Prince Yi Feng's good intentions.
"High-grade emperor level sword, Gale Sword …!"
The pearls and jades at the front represented the reputation of Princess Ling Fei and Yu Haoran. The magical tools, elixirs, and treasures at the back represented his sincerity.
Following the announcement of the eunuch, the handsome Prince Yi Feng walked into the Qingyuan Hall with a warm smile on his face.
"This old servant greets Prince Yi Feng!"
In the rear hall, Chief Steward Jiang, who was serving Emperor Qin, immediately used his movement technique to arrive at the front hall after receiving Emperor Qin's signal. Then, he greeted Prince Yi Feng with an obsequious smile.
"Steward Jiang, we haven't seen each other for more than ten years!" Prince Yi Feng couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his old face and thought of Chief Steward Jiang who had taken care of him back then.
"Ten years and three months!"
After hearing Prince Yi Feng's sigh, Steward Jiang immediately gave an accurate number, indirectly proving that Emperor Qin had been thinking about him and was concerned about him.
"You're still so loyal!"
Regarding this, Prince Yi Feng only praised Chief Steward Jiang. Then, he walked towards the treasured chair that had always belonged to him but had never sat on it.
Regarding this, Chief Steward Jiang couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile. Then, he followed behind Prince Yi Feng and entered the hall.
"The Grand Marshal of the Northern Expedition, Marshal Meng, has arrived!"
Just as Prince Yi Feng was walking towards his throne, the eunuch's shrill voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Didn't this old fellow never join in on the fun?!" Why would he suddenly attend Fei'er's engagement ceremony today? "Hearing that the Meng Family's ancestor, Meng Zhengkai, had personally come, Prince Yi Feng frowned and muttered to himself.
However, after hearing that most of Meng Zhengkai's gifts were top-notch spirit medicines and more than a dozen top-notch pill formulas, Prince Yi Feng immediately knew what he was really thinking.
In terms of identity and status, even though he was a prince and the emperor's younger brother, he was still slightly inferior to the Grand Marshal of the Northern Expedition, Meng Zhengkai.
Therefore, Prince Yi Feng could only turn around and take the initiative to welcome him.
In fact, not only did Prince Yi Feng take the initiative to welcome him, even Emperor Qin, who was in the rear hall, had no choice but to stand in the front hall of the Qingyuan Palace.
This was because the expedition that was about to begin required the support of the Grand Marshal of the Northern Expedition, Meng Zhengkai, even if it was only in name.
"Grand Marshal, I didn't think that my niece's engagement ceremony would even alarm you."
Prince Yi Feng, who took the initiative to welcome him, seemed to be very enthusiastic. However, the meaning behind his words was sarcastic.
A niece represented a junior!
You, an old man, described your age!
Prince Yi Feng's sarcasm clearly carried a trace of humiliation.
Unfortunately, Prince Yi Feng still didn't understand Meng Zhengkai's character. Facing his sarcasm, Meng Zhengkai sneered and said.
"Even you, a prince who has been missing for more than ten years, have come. As the elder of Princess Ling Fei, why can't I, the Grand Marshal of the Northern Expedition, come?"
Missing meant not showing up for a long time!
Dying outside was a sneaky way of doing things!
Meng Zhengkai's counterattack also carried a trace of humiliation.
In the face of Meng Zhengkai's similar sarcasm, the smile on Prince Yi Feng's face was instantly replaced by a gloomy one. His eyes flashed with traces of anger.
If it wasn't for the fact that today was the engagement ceremony of Ling Fei and Yu Haoran and that he was afraid of angering Yu Haoran, with Prince Yi Feng's lawless personality, he would have already fallen out with Meng Zhengkai.
Although his true strength was inferior to Meng Zhengkai's, with the power of the laws that he controlled, Meng Zhengkai couldn't do anything to him.
"Yi Feng, how can you talk to Marshal Meng like that?!"
Emperor Qin, who had long since sensed Prince Yi Feng's hostility towards Meng Zhengkai, deliberately slowed down by half a step.
It wasn't until the two sides were truly enraged that he finally appeared in the front hall and scolded Prince Yi Feng in a low voice.
In response, Prince Yi Feng only sneered, then turned around and walked towards his throne.
"Marshal Meng, please forgive me, Yi Feng, he …!"
Emperor Qin originally wanted to pretend to apologize to Prince Yi Feng, but the voice of the eunuch suddenly came from outside the hall, interrupting his thoughts of apologizing.
Emperor Qin didn't care about this in the slightest.
"Western Expedition Marshal Zhao Yuanshi has arrived!"
"I didn't expect that the engagement ceremony of Master Yu and Ling Fei would even alarm this old fellow!" After hearing the announcement from outside the hall, Meng Zhengkai teased with a smile.
The four great families of Xianyang City were the first ranked Meng Clan, the second ranked Zhao Clan, the third ranked Li Clan, and the fourth ranked Yan Clan.
Among them, the Patriarchs of the Meng Clan, Zhao Clan, and Li Clan were all quasi-Martial Venerables who had passed through a tribulation.
As for the fourth ranked Yan Clan, although no one held the position of Grand Marshal, nearly a third of the civil officials in the court were from the Yan Clan.
