The queen and the imperial concubine naturally sat on the left and right hands of the emperor, while several cousins ​​sat at the lower hand. Although they were relatives, after all, men and women were different. They were still separated from the queen’s and concubine’s seats.

In this way, a round table seems to divide them into two parts.

Zhu Feng took his two concubines and the three brothers of the Chen family, as if confronting each other.

Just thinking about it, Nan Yan couldn't help but smile in his heart.

how can that be possible.

At this time, a group of court ladies came in from outside, holding dishes in their hands, and stepped forward to arrange dishes on the round table. Since it is a family banquet, naturally the dishes will not be as luxurious as the state banquets in the past, but they are also delicacies of mountains and seas. It has everything, very rich.

Zhu Feng glanced at the three of them again, and then said, "You--"

Chen Zixiao immediately understood what he wanted to ask, and said, "The emperor, please don't worry. Our three brothers are Huoju, and our diet is no different from ordinary people."

Zhu Feng said: "That's good."

So, first raised the wine glass in his hand: "Come."

"Xie Emperor."

Everyone also raised their wine glasses and drank one first.

Then, it opened.

Since it is a family banquet, naturally there is no extra etiquette. Everyone eats and chats some gossip. Among the three brothers of the Chen family, Chen Zixiao and Chen Yiliu were probably because they were practicing in Taoism. They didn't talk much, but they answered all questions.

On the contrary, Chen Xuan blinked a pair of bright eyes and looked at everything around him. He was obviously very curious about this world which was completely different from the Taoist temple on the mountain, and he asked what he was holding on.

Therefore, the atmosphere is fairly harmonious.

At this moment, Ye Yin walked in again from outside, reached Zhu Feng's ear, and said a few words lightly.

Zhu Feng nodded, and then said: "Changqing City, let Wen Ye go back to guard immediately, don't have any problems."

"Yes."

Ye Xu left.

Nan Yan looked at him, originally wanting to ask, but she also cared about "the harem can't do politics", even if it was a family dinner, she was unwilling to give up this statement.

On the contrary, Chen Zixiao, watching Ye Wei leave, said, "Is the emperor sending troops to Changqing City now?"

Zhu Feng glanced at him: "You know?"

Chen Zixiao said: "After coming here, I heard something about King Ning's rebellion. The battle between the emperor's encirclement Wei to save Zhao, and the draw from the bottom of the cauldron was extremely wonderful. This battle is enough to be included in the art of war."

Zhu Feng glanced at him unexpectedly.

"Have you seen the art of war?"

Chen Xuan on the side said immediately: "The emperor, Brother Zi Xiao has learned the art of war from his foster father since he was a child."

"Oh?"

Zhu Feng was even more surprised.

"You guys, don't you follow him to practice?"

Chen Zixiao was silent for a while, and immediately said, "When we were young, my uncle was still in Wudang Mountain. He took us to practice martial arts with the people over there every morning. After that, he went to Lingtian Mountain. I started to study the art of war with Caomin. Over the years, I have read books about art of war."

"That's it."

After Zhu Feng heard this, there was not much expression on his face, but there was light in his eyes, which flickered slightly.

After a long while, he smiled and said: "I have heard people mention that my uncle was also a titan, and he has made countless contributions under the command of Emperor Gao. Since you are taught by him, you must have extraordinary opinions on the art of war."

"Don't dare. With the emperor, the Caomin dare not make an axe."

Chen Xuan on the side smiled and said: "Big brother, you are modest again. The adoptive father said that you have a deep understanding of his true story. Didn't you come out this time and specifically ask you to do more for the emperor?"

Chen Zixiao's face sank: "You are talking nonsense again."

Chen Xuan hurriedly lowered his head: "Oh."

Compared to the emperor present here, he seems to be more afraid of this big brother.

Zhu Feng looked at them for a while, then smiled, and said: "Zixia, you don't have to belittle yourself. Since the old country uncle has an explanation, you might as well stay in the court, just-"

As he said, he turned his head to look at Xu Miaoyin: "Before I was still discussing with the world wind, and it was the time when the DPRK was employing people. This brother, I, can just go to the army to practice experience."

"..."

Xu Miaoyin's face was slightly startled.

But he immediately smiled and said, "The emperor arranged it."

Chen Zixiao said, "Thank you, the emperor."

Zhu Feng waved his hand, then looked at Chen Yiliu who was aside, and said, "Yiliu also learns martial arts?"

Chen Yiliu smiled and said, "Yiliu has been weak since he was a child. During the years of practice in Wudang Mountain, he only got rid of some diseases, but he couldn't practice martial arts."

"Oh."

"Fortunately, Shouzhen Dao Chang was a scribe before he became a monk. Over the years, Yiliu has been studying literature with him."

Zhu Feng said: "That's the case. Yesterday, I had a long conversation with Shouzhen Dao, and found that although he is a monk, he has extensive knowledge and a unique perspective on things. He is not a layman. You are his disciple. Vulgar."

Chen Yiliu smiled and said, "The emperor is absurdly praised, but Caomin is not ashamed to be it."

Finally, Zhu Feng turned his head to look at Chen Xuan. Chen Xuan had been smiling from the side. At this moment, he felt the emperor's eyes look at him, and immediately sat down.

"The emperor, the emperor..."

Zhu Feng said: "Chen Xuan, how about you?"

"me--"

Chen Zixiao sighed on the side and said: "Over the years, he has only learned to make trouble on the mountain. If the emperor really wants to ask him what he has, he only has this ability."

Chen Xuan immediately said, "Brother, don't demolish my station."

Everyone laughed, even Zhu Feng also laughed.

However, Nan Yan sat quietly and looked at them smiling, and found that although Xu Miaoyin was smiling, there was no smile in those tender-looking eyes.

Next, although the family banquet was finished happily during Chen Xuan's interrogation, Xu Miaoyin never said a word until the end.

After the banquet was over, everyone left.

Nan Yan returned to Furongju and sat on the couch, her waist couldn't straighten up. He just hummed, Ran Xiaoyu came up and offered tea to her while saying: "What's wrong with my mother? I've been busy all day and night, and I haven't seen you so tired. Today is just going to have a meal, so tired?"

Nan Yan took the tea and took a sip.

Then he smiled meaningfully and said, "You think it's just a meal as simple as that?"

Ran Xiaoyu widened his eyes and looked at her in surprise: "What's the matter?"

"..."

"Just now the slave and maid came over there. When passing by Yishoutang, when she saw the empress empress walking in, she didn't seem to look pretty."

"..."

"Did something happen?"

"It's not something wrong," Nan Yan said in a deep voice while squeezing the edge of the teacup, "Maybe something is going to happen."
