King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

Chapter 344

  Chapter 344

  There is one last floor, which is the ninety-ninth floor.

   Rao Junli and Nangong Lingyan have deep internal energy, and at this time some fine beads of sweat can't help but appear on their foreheads.

  Loosening the belt in his hand, Jun Li walked into the ninety-ninth floor.

   Nangong Lingyan stopped in his tracks, waited for Junli to enter for a while, and then walked in.

  Looking around, he saw that Junli was already sitting on the highest seat, with a relaxed expression on his face.

  The surrounding ministers and envoys from various countries all looked pale, panting like a cow, their clothes were soaked, and they looked dying.

   Seeing this, Nangong Lingyan walked to his own seat and sat down.

  Jun Li glanced at him indifferently, with a half-smile in his eyes.

  Nangong Lingyan snorted imperceptibly, turned his head, and looked at the bright moon rising outside.

  Jun Li didn't care, but looked around, and when his eyes swept to the first one on the lower right, Prime Minister Meng with a pale face, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

  It's located on the ninety-ninth floor. Fortunately, she figured it out. There is no elevator in this place, and she has never practiced martial arts. I'm afraid she will be very tired now.

  As if aware of her gaze, Prime Minister Meng turned his head and smiled wryly, but couldn't even utter a word, leaning back against the chair, lying there with his eyes closed and dozing.

  Jun Li glanced around again, and found that in the entire building, except for Nangong Lingyan, Shi Feng, Lord Ye, Huang Zhanwu and a few top three in martial arts, there was no one who could sit upright.

  When his eyes swept to the position of Nanyan Kingdom, Jun Li was not surprised when he saw that no one came. He drank alone and watched the moonlight outside.

  The banquet cannot begin until everyone is present.

  Actually, Junli didn't have to wait for the people from Nanyan Kingdom at all, but just looked at the people in the whole building, almost all lying on chairs, and shook his head helplessly.

   Let’s just wait and let everyone rest for a while.

   Throughout the ages, they are envoys and other emperors. This is the first time that the emperor waits for an envoy!

   After about two quarters of an hour, the sound of heavy footsteps came from below.

  Jun Li raised his eyebrows, he seemed quite tired, otherwise the footsteps wouldn't be so heavy...

   After a while, the sound of footsteps gradually approaching.

  It was Eunuch Yu and the others.

  Seeing this, Junli looked back, and then remembered that he forgot about Eunuch Yu just now to tease Nangong Lingyan...

  Looking at Eunuch Yu panting heavily, his face was flushed, his legs were trembling, and he was almost unable to stand still. Jun Li quickly ordered the attendants behind him to support Eunuch Yu and let him rest in the back room.

   After waiting for a while, the eighth princess and the envoys of Nanyan Kingdom were still missing. Huang Zhanwu became a little impatient, "It's all because of the reincarnation of a tortoise! ​​It's just climbing, and it's time to get there by now!"

In a word, all the ministers who had closed their eyes and rested in shock all opened their eyes and found that Jun Li had sat on the throne at some point, and they were all sweating profusely at the moment. I don't know that His Majesty has arrived, but I waited rudely, I hope His Majesty will forgive me!"

  Seeing this, Jun Li waved his hands lightly, "Get up, everyone, today is the emperor's birthday, so there is no need to be polite."

  Hearing this, all the ministers knew that Jun Li didn't mind, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

   At this time, all the ministers had already rested. Thinking of the voice they heard just now, they hurriedly looked around, only to find that the envoys from Nanyan Kingdom had not arrived yet.

  Junli couldn't speak, so he just sat quietly. Because she had already heard the heavy footsteps coming from several floors downstairs, as well as the sound of panting breathing.

   After waiting for another quarter of an hour, the figures of the people from Nanyan Kingdom gradually came into view.

  All of them were sweating profusely, panting like cows, wiping sweat non-stop, supporting each other, extremely embarrassed.

  Seeing this, Junli couldn't help raising his eyebrows, wondering if those people who are going to find trouble tonight will be exhausted before reaching this floor?

   "Empress... Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I, we... Come, come, it's late... Mo, blame..."

   A minister standing next to the Eighth Emperor spoke, panting like a fish out of water.

  Jun Li smiled and waved his hands, "It's nothing, since everyone is here, let's start."

  Hearing this, Eunuch Yu, who had already recovered, said loudly, "The banquet begins!"

   After the words fell, a group of handsome men in water-red dance clothes came slowly from behind the screen, their sleeves dancing, bringing a burst of fragrance.

   Seeing this, the eighth princess of Nanyan Kingdom, who was originally in low spirits, immediately regained her spirits, and her eyes narrowed across the men.

   Seeing this, Huang Zhanwu curled her lips in disdain, and there was an undisguised disdain in her eyes.

  A man who was dancing passed by the Eighth Emperor, and the large water-red sleeves slowly brushed over the Eighth Emperor's enjoying face. As the fragrant wind passed by, the eighth princess opened her eyes, stretched out her hand, and hugged the man in her arms, gently sniffing the fragrance of the man's body.

   "It smells so good..."

   Taking a deep breath, the eighth princess started to touch the man's body.

  Seeing this, when the envoys of Nanyan Kingdom who were sitting behind were about to remind her to pay attention to the situation, the man suddenly turned around and got out of the Eighth Emperor's embrace.

   Smiling at the eighth princess, the man spun around and then disappeared into a dozen men.

  The eighth princess looked mesmerized, she picked up the wine glass in front of her, and was about to drink it.

  Seeing this, the wine glass in the hand of Huang Zhanwu who was sitting on the side suddenly fell to the ground and rolled to the feet of the eighth princess.

   Raising his eyebrows, he unceremoniously pushed the eighth princess away and spilled the wine in her glass. He squatted down and picked up the wine glass.

  Seeing the embarrassment of the eighth princess with all the wine, Huang Zhanwu smiled and said, "Did you spill it? I'm really sorry, can I pour you a glass myself?"

   As he spoke, he couldn't help but pick up the jug on his table and filled the wine glass in the hands of the eighth emperor.

   "Drink quickly." With a light touch of the hand, the wine glass touched the lips of the Eighth Emperor, which made her react.

   "You—" pointing at Huang Zhanwu, the Eighth Emperor was speechless in a womanly manner.

   "You don't need to thank me, this cup is an apology to you." Huang Zhanwu waved her hand indifferently, seeing that the face of the eighth emperor turned red.

  When the man dancing in the field saw this, a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes. With a calm expression on his face, he continued to dance.

   When passing in front of the eighth princess again, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side, and embraced the man indiscriminately.

  Looking at her empty hands, the eighth princess couldn't help but get angry. She stood up and tried to pull the man from Huang Zhanwu's arms.

   "Ah...it hurts~"

   With a soft, coquettish cry, the Eighth Emperor's daughter's heart melted.

  Lowing his head, he looked at the man with tears in his eyes, his ruddy lips parted slightly, he was still about to speak...
