Tangyuan was located on the southeast side of the mainland. The climate was humid and the flowers were abundant.
The Tangyuan Palace was surrounded by colorful flowers. There were many demonic beasts and rare birds. It was a beautiful sight to behold.
Queen Min knew what was on her son's mind. Along the way into the palace, there were lanterns floating in the corridor. Coupled with the unique illumination magic, it looked especially special at night.
"Brother Bupo, this place is much bigger than Grand Emperor City." Xuan Meimei felt good being surrounded by a group of palace maids.
Grand Emperor City was as rich as a country. It had been accumulating wealth for many years. However, it was still a city away from the world. The area of the city was about the same size as Bian Tang. Although the products it had were unique, it could not be compared to Tangyuan.
Therefore, Xuan Meimei was dazzled when she entered the palace this time.
Yuan Bupo was still worried about Yun Sheng's safety. Although Crown Prince Li Cheng said that he would search for Yun Sheng's whereabouts in the country, he was still absent-minded. He did not listen to Xuan Meimei's words at all. He only nodded casually in a perfunctory manner.
Xuan Meimei's joy disappeared when she saw his indifferent expression. She was furious. She tore an unknown flower by the roadside and threw it on the ground.
Crown Prince Li Cheng smiled gently when he heard that. He said flatteringly, "Miss Xuan, if you like, you can come to Tangyuan to play in the future. You can even stay in the palace."
Xuan Meimei's expression changed when she saw Li Cheng's friendly expression and thought about the meaning behind his words.
She looked at Li Cheng's appearance. He had a narrow forehead, a wide nose and a short body. There was a hint of adoration in his eyes when he looked at her.
A sense of disgust rose from the bottom of her heart. A person like this wanted to pursue her?
Xuan Meimei scoffed.
Although her face was injured, she always thought that her face could be healed as long as she found the Water of Life. Li Cheng invited her to the palace because he wanted to please her.
A toad wanting to eat a swan's meat. What wishful thinking.
She said coldly, "Thank you for your kindness, Crown Prince. However, I'm used to being with Brother Bupo everywhere. Or should I say that you want to invite both of us to the palace as guests?"
In other words, it was obvious that he had a good impression of Yuan Bu Po.
Crown Prince Li Cheng was stunned when he heard that. He then looked at Yuan Bupo.
Yuan Bupo did not seem to hear their conversation... his handsome face was tense as he looked at a magic formation not far away. He was lost. No one knew what he was thinking..
Looking at the distance between him and Xuan Meimei, it seemed like they were intentionally keeping a distance from each other. It seemed like the two of them had no intentions.
Yuan Bupo had been inquiring about the whereabouts of a lady from the Great Zhou Dynasty called Yun Sheng. His expression was very nervous at that time, it was obvious that he was interested in that lady.
As the Crown Prince, Li Cheng was honest and considerate, but he was no fool.
He knew that if he could get the help of the Xuanyuan and Xuanyuan Clans, his chances of ascending the throne in the future would greatly increase.
He had to find a way to find the lady named Yunsheng. That way, he could cut off Xuan Meimei's admiration for Yuan Bu Po and please Yuan Bu Po at the same time.

A palace appeared in front of them. The palace was a typical southern building. It had undulating eaves and was richly ornamented.
Crown Prince Li Cheng saw a group of people coming as soon as he got close to the Morning Dew Palace.
The leader was the Second Prince, Li Shao.
Crown Prince Li Cheng's expression changed when he saw that.
The banquet was supposed to be a private one. Li Cheng did not want Li Shao to know about it. Although he and Li Shao were brothers, they were worlds apart in terms of appearance and ability.
He wanted to please Xuan Meimei and take the opportunity to propose marriage. However, if Li Shao was there, even a blind man would know who to choose.
"Brother, what a coincidence. I'm here to greet Empress Min. Who are these two?" Li Shao looked elegant as usual. He was wearing a dark purple sorcerer's robe. The sorcerer's' scepter was at his waist and he had a jade crown on his forehead. His features were picturesque.
He looked up and saw that behind Li Cheng, there was a tall young man and a slim young girl following closely behind.
Li Shao saw Yuan Bupo's face clearly. He could not help but praise him in his heart. He did not expect there to be such an outstanding person in Grand Emperor City.
Li Shao and Xuan Wuji had known each other for a long time. However, Xuan Wuji was a mediocre person.
When he saw Yuan Bupo today, he realized he was much more powerful than Xuan Wuji.
He looked at Xuan Meimei. Although she was wearing a veil, he could tell she was a beauty just by looking at her temperament.
'Greeting? It's already the moon.' What kind of greeting was this for an Hour?
Li Cheng was furious. Xuan Meimei, who was next to him, could not help but take a few more glances when she heard it was Tang Yuan's Second Prince.
With one look, Xuan Meimei couldn't help but reveal a stunned expression.
She always thought Yuan Bupo was the best-looking man in the world. She did not expect Tang Yuan's Second Prince to be so handsome.
In fact, Li Shao and Yuan Bupo had two different temperaments.
Li Shao was handsome with a hint of aristocratic elegance. If one did not know him well, they would think he was a gentleman.
Yuan Bupo was a young man. He was beautiful from head to toe. His appearance was similar to a woman's but he did not give off a feminine vibe.
When the two of them stood together, they were like two bright stars in the sky. Their brilliance was irreconcilable.
Li Cheng was furious. However, as the saying goes, a slap does not hit a smiling person. Li Shao was famous for being a smiling fox. Li Cheng could only smile and say, "Second Brother, you're so considerate. These two are important guests from Grand Emperor City. It's a coincidence today that Mother is hosting a family banquet in the palace to entertain the two guests. I saw that Imperial Concubine Su was not feeling well. I thought you were attending to her at her bedside so I did not inform you. "
"Imperial brother is really thoughtful. Mufei's health is no longer in danger. I haven't paid my respects for many days. Coincidentally, someone sent over several bolts of high-quality smoke cloud silk today. I thought of mufei and entered the palace." Li Shao's gaze seemed to linger on Xuan Meimei's body.
"If that's the case, follow me into the palace." Li Cheng had no choice but to enter the palace with the Second Prince.
When Min Hou saw the Second Prince, a trace of unnoticeable displeasure flashed across his face.
Li Shao and his mother had been pampered and domineering in the palace all these years. Li Shao even used his mother's weak body as an excuse to skip the formalities of greeting.
He could have done it at any other time, but he chose to do it tonight.
The group of people had their own thoughts as they took their seats. However, the palace banquet became turbulent because of Li Shao's sudden participation. An unknown danger was approaching quietly.
