Zhou Chumu saw Lin Qingluan looking like a little bunny with her ears pricked up. He felt cute and couldn't help but laugh.

The laughter was dull, and his chest was also rising and falling dullly. Lin Qingluan held it under her hands, feeling it was fun, so she couldn't help but touch it a few times.

"A-luan..." Zhou Chumu grabbed her hand and breathed a little heavier, "What is A-luan touching?"

"...It's nothing." Lin Qingluan felt slightly guilty and tried her best to lead the topic away, "Who did the Zhai family arrange?"

"Well... Aluan will know in a few days." Zhou Chumu said, grabbing Lin Qingluan's waist and moving her down, "A good night is too short, Aluan should take a look at me first."

Lin Qingluan exclaimed and felt something. Her body froze, but Zhou Chumu quickly positioned her...

When she was tired and fell asleep, Lin Qingluan didn't even ask who the person arranged by the Zhai family was...

However, as Zhou Chumu said, Lin Qingluan found out within a few days.

The eighth day of September was Shangguan Lie's 30th birthday. For this Wanshou Festival, the palace had prepared early, and red silk was hung up early that morning. It was very festive.

"In the past three years, as the emperor's filial piety period, the emperor's longevity festival was simple. This year is the emperor's birthday, so I thought it would be more grand." Concubine Xian said with a smile while holding tea.

Zhai Hanjing nodded: "That should be the case."

Concubine Xian continued to talk about her arrangements. Although Zhai Hanjing, who was sitting at the top, was a little uncomfortable, he still listened carefully and finally said: "Concubine Xian, I have taken the trouble, but there is only one thing..."

Concubine Xian smiled and said, "I hope the Queen will give me some advice."

"The emperor used to like the lyre. In the past few years, out of filial piety, he has not listened to it a few times. I heard that Nanfu has taught some good musicians..." Zhai Han has come to the end of the scenic spot.

"The Queen is very considerate, I will make arrangements now." Concubine Xian said with a smile.

When Lin Qingluan listened, she felt that this Nanfu Music Girl was a bit strange. At night, she saw the unique Music Girl who was wearing a different outfit and was the only one holding the piano.

What a coincidence, it was rare for her and Zhai Hanjing to do the same thing.

Taking advantage of this banquet, Lin Qingluan also planned to present a beauty to the emperor, so that Shangguan Lie would receive five for one and enjoy the beauty's grace to the fullest.

The Le Ji named Yu Xin was really good at playing the piano, and Shangguan Lie looked at her more.

Lin Qingluan could also see clearly that Zhai Hanjing's smile was forced, but he looked back at Jin Ru. After a while, Jin Ru took the joy away from the scene.

This was going to be sent directly to the Daming Palace. Zhai Hanjing was more conservative than her.

Lin Qingluan smiled and raised her glass, and then toasted Shangguan Lie with another glass of wine. Shangguan Lie also smiled happily.

After we've had enough wine and food, today's business is about to begin.

The table in front of everyone was cleared of leftovers and replaced with fresh fruits and fragrant tea. Lin Qingluan glanced at the teapot in front of Shangguan Lie and smiled slightly.

Following the eunuchs' singing, the Beirong envoys were finally able to enter the palace to meet the saint on the tenth day after arriving in Beijing.

However, Shangguan was so naughty that he was not even willing to give these people a meal.

It was also the first time that Lin Qingluan met the third prince of Beirong. It was said that he was not similar to the second prince, but in Lin Qingluan's opinion, they were equally annoying.

The third prince Dasheng spoke with a strange tone, but he was still fluent. He put one hand on his chest, bent down and saluted: "Honorable Emperor Dasheng, I heard that today is your birthday, please allow Brother Yun to draw a picture.

On behalf of Beirong, Wo would like to congratulate Emperor Dasheng on his happy birthday."

"Please sit down." There was no discernible emotion or anger in Shangguan Lie's voice. He nodded slightly, and then a young eunuch came forward and led the third prince of Beirong, Yunge Tuwo, to sit on a stool beside him.

An older man among the ministers chuckled lightly and said to the people around him: "A wilderness is a wilderness. People who wish me birthday come here empty-handed."

"What Mr. Xin Ge said is absolutely true, but we still need to be educated without distinction. If the barbaric land is willing to surrender, we will naturally teach with all our heart to avoid making people laugh in the future." The ministers beside him also laughed.

Yunge Tuwo didn't know whether he didn't understand or didn't care. His smile never changed, but he said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Dasheng, can you let me see my nephew?"

But Shangguan Lie asked back: "I thought the third prince would want to see the princess first."

"I haven't seen my sister for a few days, but I haven't seen my nephew for several months." Yun Getuwo smiled, "Even if you call me uncle, I have to worry about you."

Shangguan chuckled and waved his hand casually.

Yu Bao shouted loudly behind him: "Please invite the king and grandson of Beirong!"

Yungetuwo stood up subconsciously. After a moment, he saw his second brother's eldest son walking out. He called out "Erde!"

Erde looked up and saw Yun Ge Tuwo, and shouted excitedly: "Uncle Third!"

He trotted to Yunge Tuwo and tears began to fall: "Uncle Third, my father..."

"Third uncle knows." Yun Getuwo interrupted him, looked at Erde carefully for a moment, raised his head and said to Shangguan Lie, "Thank you Emperor Dasheng for taking care of Erde."

"It's just a trivial matter." Shangguan Lie said calmly and looked at Yun Getuwo again, "Is the third prince here this time for the sake of the king and grandson?"

Now that he was about to get to the point, Yungetuwo took a deep breath and said what the King of Beirong had told him one by one before starting: "...I, Beirong, would like to sign a five-year peace agreement with Dasheng and give me a horse as a gift.

Two thousand horses, five thousand cattle and sheep, and six thousand taels of silver.”

What he said was not sincere enough. Shangguan Lie frowned subconsciously, and the ministers across from him also started talking about it.

"This little thing is not as large as the princess's dowry. It is actually used by a country to negotiate peace. It is really ridiculous." Lin Qingluan snorted without deliberately lowering his voice.

Yunge Tuwo subconsciously looked at her, then looked at Shangguan Lie for a moment: "Does Emperor Dasheng actually need a woman to make the decision?"

"What the noble concubine said is the truth. I have not seen Beirong's sincerity. There is no need to mention this matter again." Shangguan Lie would not be easily angered by him, and his tone was extremely calm.

Lin Yaochen stood up at this time, smiled and said to Shangguan Lie: "These things are not enough to negotiate for peace, and another prince and grandson can still force it, so the emperor might as well accept it first."

"It's just like what Lin Aiqing said." Shangguan Lie smiled slightly.

"I don't know, this king, that Lord Dasheng and his ministers are actually a group of bandits?" Yunge Tuwo said angrily.

Lin Yaochen didn't even look at him. He just waved his hand and said, "Please go down and rest first."

As soon as he finished speaking, several imperial guards walked in from outside the palace, and without saying a word, they tried to pull Erd down, who still had red eyes.

"Lin Yaochen! How dare you!" Yun Getuwo was shocked and called the Beirong envoy on his side to protect Erde.

There was chaos on the court, and Yunge Tuwo was still shouting: "Emperor Dasheng! Is it possible that the Lin family has the final say in your administration?"
