Chapter 1853: Half of the Country Is Yours, Half Is Mine

Yun Dai didn't squint her eyes and kept a gentle smile: "You didn't keep Jun Yuexi until late at night last night?"

"Are you competing with me?"

"Why not?" Yun Dai smiled, "You are half of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I am half. If you are not convinced, I can return to Northern Qi. I believe that the people of Northern Qi are happy for me to be their Queen."

Zhao Yuanjing: "..."

He was simply in shock.

What the hell is this woman talking about?

She actually said she wanted to return to Northern Qi and become the queen?

Zhao Yuanjing turned to stare at her.

Yun Dai showed him a charming smile: "Your Majesty, do you think I can't do it?"

Zhao Yuanjing narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered: "Gu Yundai, you are going to shake things up. It seems that I will have a good talk with you tonight."

By this time they had reached the front of their seats.

The Queen Mother was already sitting here. The two of them stopped whispering and saluted the Queen Mother.

After all, the Empress Dowager still loves this grandson whom she has watched grow up since childhood. Seeing his energetic appearance like a dragon and a phoenix, she still feels relieved in her heart.

She smiled and said to Zhao Yuanjing: "Sit down, today is your Qianqiu, and the Ai family came here specially to take a look. The Ai family is too old to sit in a place like this. Let's have a glass of wine and go back."

There were thousands of people in the palace, but she found it too noisy, so she only had a glass of wine and went back holding the eunuch's hand.

Before leaving, she glanced at Jun Yuexi specifically, her eyes meaningful.

She was happy to see Jun Yuexi's beautifully dressed up appearance.

It's a pity that Jun Yuexi didn't understand it.

Jun Yuexi's beauty has attracted the attention of many people in the palace.

However, based on where she was sitting and the recent rumors in the palace, most people could guess her identity.

This is a peerless beauty that the Empress Dowager specially found to be the Emperor's concubine. How can others just care about her?

No matter how beautiful it is, you still have to have the life to care about it.

Therefore, most people have a purely appreciative attitude and do not dare to have any other ideas.

On the other hand, the handsome young man Jun Qingbai sitting next to Jun Yuexi attracted the attention of many people.

Although I can't miss the peerless beauty, I can miss the peerless beauty's brother.

There are still many daughters waiting to be married off in noble families.

The status of the Jun family is not low. Looking at Jun Yuexi's appearance, she will definitely be a favorite concubine in the palace in the future. It would be a good thing if her brother could be her son-in-law.

After the banquet started, many people greeted Jun Qingbai. Jun Qingbai suddenly became the most concerned person here. She was a little confused, but after seeing the Queen's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, she probably Understand a little bit.

She also couldn't laugh or cry.

But after all, she stood up as a man, so she was mentally prepared for this kind of thing, and she handled it appropriately.

After one round, the birthday gifts to the emperor began.

It was the first birthday banquet held for the new emperor three years after he ascended the throne. Naturally, the princes and ministers racked their brains to think of ways to present the most precious gifts.

There is a whole box of huge South Sea pearls, a Buddha statue carved from a whole piece of jade, and priceless calligraphy and painting by a master.

Everything is good.

Zhao Yuanjing has always had a calm expression, and has never shown anything particularly satisfactory.

This is a bit unsettling.

Is it that the emperor is not satisfied with these birthday gifts?

It wasn't until His Royal Highness the young prince came up and presented a poem he had written that the emperor smiled a little.
