Chapter 25: Palace Banquet

After three days of rest, an order came from the palace. His Majesty held a banquet in the palace to welcome the princess and princesses and others. During dinner, the King of Zhennan led them to the palace to the banquet. The emperor appeared and everyone was kneeling and worshiping, and Cang Xi could only use a trick to trick. Otherwise, the god kneeled down to the mortal, and he would attract thunder again. Leyuan looked at them with a funny face, which made Cang Xi quite embarrassed.

Yun Tan sat down and looked around, whispering to Cang Xi, "Brother, is the emperor in the world high? It seems that his spirit is not as good as the King of Zhennan."

"What nonsense!" Cang Xi scolded softly.

"What are the two young masters Xiao talking about?" The emperor smiled and looked at Cang Xi and Yun Tan below.

"It's nothing, it's just the first time I saw the palace, it's a bit novel." Yun Tan tried his best to make himself look childish.

"Your Majesty, my son is naughty. He is very happy to see everything in the palace. He is rude for a moment. I hope Your Majesty will atone for his sins." Cang Xi stood up and grabbed Yun Tan.

"Not hindrance, the child's nature, Mr. Xiao doesn't have to be polite. Then Mr. Xiao is interested in something." The emperor asked with interest.

"I've taken a fancy to the lantern." Yuntan pointed to the lantern in the hands of the palace servants and replied casually, "Last time, my brother won me an exquisite and beautiful lantern. Today I saw the lanterns in the palace, which are quite unique. Can Your Majesty give me one?"

"Lantern?" The emperor was obviously a little unbelievable, "It's just a lantern?" The emperor was just a palace lantern, showing a little stingy. The eunuch next to him whispered, "Your Majesty, the Gentile merchant not long ago offered an exquisite glass lantern. It's better to give the glass lantern to the young master." The emperor nodded, "Go and bring the lamp, and then find a new palace lantern to the child." He said to Yuntan again, "You are looking at what else you like?"

"I can't see anything else, I just think that everything in the palace is good." Yun Tan said.

The eunuch came to the emperor with a glass lamp and a new palace lamp. The emperor waved his hand and asked someone to send the lamp to Yuntan. He said to Yuntan again, "There is a glass lamp here, and I will give you the same."

"Thank you for your reward." Yun Tan bowed. This emperor was so easy to talk to. There were so many glazed lanterns in the sky, much more exquisite than this one. The lantern last time was the first prize won by his brother. But he could only pretend to be happy.

"Young Master Xiao is so old, have you ever married?" The emperor saw Cang Xi's appearance and a stellar temperament. He thought that his legitimate little princess was already seventeen this year, but he could not find a satisfactory candidate. Although Xiao Shao still has no official position, if he becomes a prince consort and has talent, he might be a rare pillar of talent.

Cang Xi was drinking, and when he heard this, he was so shocked that he almost threw away his glass, "Your Majesty, Cao Min is not married yet." The emperor often said this in the book to draw a red line, either to order his daughter to his son-in-law or to see who is a woman of the right age among the ministers. Thinking of this, he quickly added another sentence, "But Cao Min already has a woman he likes."

"Oh?" The emperor seemed quite disappointed, "Which woman can win Mr. Xiao's favor?"

"A girl from an ordinary family, your Majesty will not be bothered." Cang Xi felt guilty and sweating on her head. Why do ordinary people like to give people a red thread!

Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, the emperor stopped asking questions. It was a pity that such a person was not the princess's son-in-law. Just think that these two people were not destined to be together.

Qingluan couldn't help but feel upset when she heard Cang Xi's words. What kind of woman was caught in Xiao Shao's eyes.

After the palace banquet, a group of people got out of the carriage after leaving the palace gate. They drank too much wine and wanted to sober up. Cang Xi thought silently. Qingluan was in a bad mood, and the King of Zhennan was worried when he looked at his daughter.

"Brother, who is the woman you like? Why don't I know?" Yuntan asked with a wink. His brother's lies were really casual.
