Chapter 138 Wei Palace
Chapter 138 Wei Palace
After eating and drinking, everyone walked out of the private room contentedly, but they found that the monk had disappeared without a trace.
"I always feel that the monk's words are evasive, as if there is something else behind his words." Mei Jiu has always been meticulous and sensitive, and she once again brought up what the monk said.
"Alas, monks always like to be mysterious, so that they can appear to be knowledgeable and unfathomable!" Zhao Qing disagreed.
"But I also feel that he seems to know something about the inside story. We'd better be careful when we meet him next time!" Bai Xinyin reminded everyone.
After strolling around for a morning, everyone felt a little tired, so they decided to return to the inn to rest for a while.
Because Bai Xinyin didn't sleep well last night, she fell asleep as soon as she returned to her room and had a good sleep.
When I woke up, the sun had already set.
"Miss, it's time to get up and go to the palace. Emperor Wei is hosting a banquet for us tonight." Zi Xuan reminded.
"Oh, if you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten it." Bai Xinyin stretched and sat up, "I slept so well."
The setting sun shines into the room through the window, soft and warm.
Zi Xuan walked gently to the bedside and gave Bai Xinyin a gentle massage on her head. She then ordered someone to bring warm water and prepared to dress Bai Xinyin up.
This little girl is used to serving people. It's really comfortable to give her a massage. I'm going to fall into a life of decadence and dissipation, Bai Xinyin thought.
After a while, Bai Xinyin got out of bed and began to wash and dress in front of the mirror.
Zixuan's dexterous little hands seemed to have magical powers. No matter how unruly the hair was, once she combed it, it would immediately become smooth, docile and well-behaved.
In a short while, an exquisite and beautiful hairstyle was completed.
Then, she skillfully and gently applied a layer of elegant makeup on Bai Xinyin.
When a princess represents a country to attend a banquet in the State of Wei, her attire cannot be too simple.
So, Zixuan carefully selected two gorgeous floor-length dresses, one pink-green and one lake blue.
"Let's go for the pink and green one. It makes me look delicate." Bai Xinyin pointed at the dress and said naturally.
Zi Xuan helped Bai Xinyin put it on. The cut of the skirt was just right, perfectly outlining Bai Xinyin's graceful figure. Her slender waist seemed so thin that it could not be grasped, making people fall for it.
Looking at Bai Xinyin who was slowly growing up in front of her, Zi Xuan was stunned for a moment, with a look of amazement in her eyes.
"Oh my God, Zixuan, why are you drooling? Do you want to bite Ayin?" At this time, Zhao Qing, who had finished dressing up, pushed the door open and saw Zixuan's appearance at a glance.
Then, she followed Zixuan's gaze and was immediately amazed: "Wow! This is truly a peerless beauty. Even I can't help but be fascinated by her."
For a moment, Zhao Qing was also shocked by the beauty of the person in front of him. He was stunned where he was, and was about to fall on Zi Xuan after he finished speaking.
At three quarters past the hour of You, with the announcement of the eunuch at the palace gate, Bai Xinyin and his party appeared at the Wei Imperial Palace.
When everyone entered the hall, Bai Xinyin glanced around with the corner of her eyes: the hall was magnificent and breathtaking. The hall was shining with golden light, and the bright pearls inlaid on the dome contrasted with the gorgeous carpet on the ground. The walls were covered with exquisite murals depicting the history and glory of the Wei Kingdom.
The pillars in the hall were tall and sturdy, with lifelike dragon patterns carved on them. At this time, the lights were already on. In addition to candles, there were also various night-shining pearls inlaid in the hall, illuminating the golden bricks on the ground, making the entire hall brighter and more glorious.
In this hall, one can seem to feel the prosperity and power of the Wei State, and one can't help but be full of imagination about the past and future of the Wei State.
In the center of the hall, there is a huge dragon throne, which is finely carved and shows the majesty of the imperial power. Behind the dragon throne is a huge screen made of precious silk, embroidered with mountain and river patterns.
A person sat on the dragon throne - the Emperor of Wei. He was tall and straight, wearing a dragon robe, and looked majestic without even getting angry. His face was well-defined, his eyebrows were sharp, his eyes were bright, and his determination and wisdom were revealed. His nose was high and his lips were tightly closed, giving people a calm and majestic feeling.
Next to him sat the queen, a beautiful woman. Her skin was whiter than snow, as delicate as silk, her eyebrows were like paintings, and her eyes were full of tenderness. There was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, which made people feel like spring breeze.
In the hall, the figures of the emperor and the empress became a beautiful landscape. Their elegant temperaments set off each other and fully displayed the royal demeanor.
In the spacious and bright hall, many high-ranking officials and their families were seated one after another. All the ministers who were able to attend the banquet were powerful and famous. Therefore, the whole scene seemed particularly grand and luxurious.
At this time, the eunuch with a loud voice at the door once again announced: "Please invite the third prince and the ninth princess of Zhao to see you!"
With this announcement, Bai Xiyin and her group slowly walked into the hall. The Seventh Princess wanted to conceal her identity, so she just followed Bai Xiyin quietly without revealing her true identity.
When they walked into the hall, the originally noisy scene suddenly became silent. Everyone's eyes were focused on this group of people.
The third prince, who was walking in the front, was tall, handsome, and imposing. He exuded a unique royal temperament, as if he was born to be a king, which made people fall in love with him. His powerful aura was fully revealed, and he even revealed a bit of imperial spirit, which was really not to be underestimated.
However, what surprised everyone even more was the woman following closely behind the Third Prince. Her skin was fairer than snow, her eyebrows were as black as ink, her eyes were as clear as autumn water, her lips were red without any makeup, and her long black and shiny hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall. Her beauty was like a fairy descending from the earth, fresh and refined, and it was a bright sight.
"Shh!" There was a slight exclamation from the crowd, followed by a gasp.
Someone couldn't help but pinch the person next to him and asked, "Are we in heaven for a feast? Otherwise, how could such a beautiful fairy come to the mortal world?"
"Chang'e from the Moon Palace has come down to earth?"
"How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world? I, a woman, like her too!"
People were whispering to each other, unable to believe their eyes.
Bai Xinyin is like a shining star fallen to earth, stunningly beautiful and heart-wrenching.
"Greetings to the Emperor Wei!" She opened her red lips and saluted along with the Third Prince.
Her dimples are shallow, revealing a charming smile that seems to be able to make the whole world fall in love with her.
Her appearance made her the most dazzling presence at the banquet, attracting everyone's attention.
After hearing the voice, the Emperor of Wei on the dragon throne swept his eyes over everyone in the hall and finally fell on the two guests from the State of Zhao - the third prince and the ninth princess.
The two men were elegant and graceful, especially the Ninth Princess, who was as beautiful as a fairy and was a feast to the eyes.
The King of Wei secretly admired in his heart that he was worthy of being a member of the royal family of Zhao, and was indeed different from others.
He stood up and smiled: "Welcome the third prince and the ninth princess of Zhao to visit our Wei State. Please take a seat!" His voice was loud and powerful, full of majesty.
The Third Prince and the Ninth Princess also quickly returned the greetings and expressed their gratitude. Afterwards, they were led by the guards to sit on the seats that had been prepared on both sides.
The Emperor of Wei sat back on the dragon throne with a firm and confident look in his eyes. He began to talk with the two distinguished guests from Zhao State. The topics covered the friendly relations and cultural exchanges between the two countries.
The atmosphere of the whole scene was harmonious and both the guests and hosts were having a great time.
"The Queen Mother has arrived!" Along with a shrill voice, a woman about twenty years old came in, surrounded by maids. She was dressed in gorgeous exotic clothes and a veil on her head, revealing her deep blue eyes.
