However, she could not say clearly what made him strange.
He was the same, spoke in the same tone and behaved in the same way, but he seemed less greedy and scheming, which was something she could not get used to.
Also… at the banquet, he arranged for his favorite son, namely the Crown Prince, to deal with the ministers and their family, rather than come to the court directly. Normally, he should have called the Crown Prince inside so that he could get something out of it.
Gu Chaoyan shook her head, and could not understand it. She turned to De Fu who was serving the King, and did not seem to find anything wrong with De Fu.
She sighed slightly.
Many things were happening these days, and after she was interrupted by the Head of Snow Territory, she seemed very skeptical… Maybe she had over thought about what was going on here.
She stopped staring.
The people from Piaomiao Pavilion had many small tricks, but none of their plans worked even to the end of the court banquet.
Gu Chaoyan decided to meet Huang Fu, because she could not stand being here any more. She was about to get up after seeing the banquet coming to an end.
Manners and rules were very important at the Saint Divine Land, and when the auspicious hour for the banquet passed, the banquet had to be dismissed.
Gu Chaoyan had never liked this kind of strange rule, but today, she enjoyed it.
When the Phoenix Girl was leaving, people showed respect in the court.
The Head of the Snow Territory got up as well and decided to leave with the Phoenix Girl, seeing as she was leaving.
Standing outside the gate of Ronghua Palace, she could see the ministers and officers. She did not like being in a populous place, so she frowned and decided to leave directly.
The ministers did not allow her to leave in silence.
They showed their respect and greeted her. "Greetings, Phoenix Girl!"
Soon it was very noisy outside Ronghua Palace.
Gu Chaoyan felt confused
Everyone at the Saint Divine Land, including the King and the ordinary people in the court had their own positions and manners, but the Phoenix Girl was not restrained by manners and rules. So when they were greeting the Phoenix Girl, they used the most respectful manner. Gu Chaoyan had no idea how to greet them back.
She frowned and then staggered. "Please get up now!"
Having said this… she did not stop but hurried away.
The Head of the Snow Territory behind her saw the scene and chuckled. He followed her suit and went out of Ronghua Palace as well.
When the ministers and officers got up, they were all smiling happily.
Well..
They desired nothing from the court.
What they needed most was to get some auspiciousness from the Phoenix Girl, which none of the commoners were able to get.
The Phoenix Girl rarely went out and it was never easy to see her, but today, their wish was fulfilled.
That was why the ministers all brought their family members to the court, especially the children.
Among them, Zheng Chenyi and his mother were there too.
Madame Duke North had not been having a smooth time these days. She had become much older than before. She could not get up after kneeling down, and her maid did not help her. Even her son next to her did not even look at her.
She was tearful.
In the past….
