”High Lord Demon Destroyer is someone who understands the general situation. We didn't misjudge him.” Eunuch Xu, let those officials come in! They have come from afar and have been slow, but it is our fault. ”

Just as Mo Nanxuan finished speaking, Elder Xu shouted and all the countries entered the banquet hall together.

A nervous farce was easily resolved in a few sentences by an inconsequential concubine. Everyone was still lost in their own confusion, unable to extricate themselves from it.

Bai Zhixi was the same as well. She looked at Jun Mohan beside her, her exposed eyes filled with nervousness, and also an inexplicable caution.

Ever since this esteemed wangfei had come in, his gaze had never left her.

She had heard a bit about the affairs of esteemed wangfei, but when she saw the real person today, she was stunned. At the same time, she felt that this esteemed wangfei wasn't as harmless as she appeared to be.

Otherwise, how could he have survived safely in the palace that Ye Shishuang was so envious of? The Emperor seemed to be good to her as well.

Even if her father was a general, with Ye Shishuang's personality, he definitely wouldn't leave behind any traces for her to deal with.

Thus, this Duan Fei Fei was not a simple person.

Perhaps it was because her gaze was too passionate, the one sitting opposite her, Consort Duan, suddenly raised her head and smiled at her.

Being caught red-handed, Bai Zhixi did not hide anything and returned the greeting politely.

However, she could see the unwillingness and hatred in Consort Duan's eyes, as well as her killing intent. Although it had been concealed well, she still saw it in the depths of her eyes.

She was baffled. She hadn't offended this esteemed wangfei before, had she?

In the blink of an eye, the princes, princesses and envoys arrived at the banquet.

Qing Zi sat beside Bai Zhixi in the name of the Southern Frontier princess, while Dongfang Chen and Shangguan Jingyan sat opposite of them.

Ever since Dongfang Chen entered, his eyes had never left Bai Zhixi's body. He stared at her like a hunter meeting his prey, and this gaze displeased Bai Zhixi.

She directly ignored Dongfang Chen and looked towards the Shangguan Jingyan beside him. In these few days that she hadn't seen him, she had lost a lot of weight.

On her originally delicate face, there was a haggard look, as if she was suffering from an illness.

Come to think of it, Dongfang Chen's matter with Ye Luoli had dealt a huge blow to her.

Shangguan Jingyan was also looking at Bai Zhixi at this moment, her expression indifferent. Compared to Bai Zhixi's burning gaze, she seemed a little impatient or cold.

After which, she opened her eyes and looked at where the Minister's family was seated.

Bai Zhixi was even more confused now, what exactly did Jing Yan go through after she separated from him that day?

Why was he so cold to himself?

”Princess of the Northern Frontier, Bei Churou, greets the Emperor. May he live a long life!”

The woman's voice was sonorous and forceful, cold to the bone. There was not the slightest trace of a woman's voice.

Northern Chuchu, the second princess of the northern border?

Hearing this voice, everyone thought that it was a man. They were even more confused than Bai Zhixi who had only met Bei Xiuran once before.

He saw her with a oval face, long eyebrows and dark skin. She had a pretty face, but her beauty was unique to the north.

In a split second, Bei Chu turned his head to look at Bai Zhixi. The cold look in his eyes complemented the icy aura around her.

After a long while, Mo Nanxuan allowed her to take her seat, and she retracted her gaze, and walked over.

The wine interlaced, the wine beautiful woman, singing and dancing softly, drum music together with high interest, wine fragrance overflowing everywhere.

After a short exchange of pleasantries, the banquet officially began.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere was hazy and everyone was slightly intoxicated.

Bai Zhixi relied on his slightly drunk body and strolled around the palace garden.

”You better obediently return with me. Otherwise, don't blame me for not respecting you.”

In the pavilion of the Imperial Palace's rear garden, a few red lanterns swayed in the night wind. In the pitch-black night sky, there was a hint of light, and the woman's cold voice came from there.

”Go back and tell him that I won't go back even if I die. I won't listen to any arrangements.”

It was a cold female voice with traces of anger.

After the woman finished speaking, she flung her sleeves and turned around, walking toward the banquet location.

”Beidou, have you thought about your mother since you left like this?”

”Mother? Heh, I didn't know what my mother was like since I was born. What does her life or death have to do with me? Also, don't bother me anymore, I don't have the patience to go crazy with you. ”

Suddenly, the woman who had hidden herself in the darkness flew out. Her hands were tightly holding onto the neck of another woman. Her eyes were cold, her expression was solemn, and there was an unquestionable dignity in her voice.
