The Great Hajj is on the last day of the year.

Christmas is the first day of the year.

The state banquet is the time for the emperor to treat him once a year in the empire. It is after the end of the Great Hajj, from evening to late at night, until halfway through midnight, witnessing the turn of the sun and the moon, and everything renews, and entrusting the meaning of continuing the past and coming.

This tradition has not changed since the Holy Ancestor of Taizong. The people of Tianyuan Realm have this unified custom, which is called "Shouqing".

State banquets also have profound political significance.

The host and guest of the banquet are the envoys who are permanently resident in the Shendu of the nations and the heavyweights who are now living in the Shendu of the nations. Even those envoys who have not entered the Shengping Hall because their country is too small, will have a dedicated person from the Ministry of Rites to set up a banquet elsewhere accompanied by the envoys of the Four Dynastys to serve as a grand reception.

As for the guests, there were important officials from the imperial center, namely those court officials who entered the Golden Palace, and those who came to the local area every year;

In addition, the senior generals of the Imperial Army and all the people who have been granted titles.

Emperor Xuanyuan led a large team of nearly two thousand people to Shengping Hall. In front of the gate of Shengping Hall, which was illuminated by the lights, four emperors of ancient dynasties led the queen, surrounded by thousands of invited envoys from all countries waiting.

As soon as the two sides met, everyone greeted each other hand in hand and entered the hall together.

Tonight's Shengping Hall was illuminated by the bright lights like daylight. Festive, cheerful, lively and jumping music resounded inside and outside the hall, and there were also various singing and dancing performances to cheer up.

The huge Shengping Hall has become a noisy and hilarious hall. There is no dignity and solemnity, only a friendly and joyful scene specially created.

After greetings, they all returned to their seats and took their seats.

Those pilgrims who have never seen such grand scenes since childhood also have the eunuchs and palace maids who have been traveling around to give them kind guidance.

Wei Sanbao is like a musician with a firm conductor. Tonight, all the personnel in the imperial city have undergone a long training period under his careful arrangement. From the chef in the imperial kitchen to the musician singing and dancing, to the song selection of Shengping Hall tonight's songs, lighting design, to the service of palace maids and eunuchs, etc., everything is perfect.

The ambassadors of the nations sat in the middle of the hall, and the tables in the front row were representatives of the envoys from the great powers and powerful countries.

On the left are important officials of the court and all the pilgrims, headed by Qin Mu and the six tribes.

On the right are the generals of the army and all the titles, led by Yuchi Ba and Dazong Ling Zhang Songlin.

Emperor Xuanyuan, who brought his own queen and four younger brothers and sisters, sat side by side in the main seat. He was in the middle, and the other four emperors lived on both sides, did not know that since he showed up in Shengping Hall, there were bright eyes in the crowd of the title winners secretly watching him.

As the wine was mixed, Emperor Xuanyuan and his younger brothers were chatting and laughing in a low voice, and occasionally they were amused by some jokes on the show. Then, the envoys from all over the country took the opportunity and took advantage of the opportunity, but they were in order. They knew that they came to congratulate him one by one, and they all talked with each other affectionately.

As for every time this time, someone secretly sent a message to him, telling him that this person was XXX, there was no need to mention it from XXX. Anyway, in the mouth of Emperor Xuanyuan, he knew each of them and could even tell some of their little anecdotes.

After the qualified messengers consciously congratulated each other in order, Emperor Xuanyuan and Empress Xuanyuan raised the wine glass, and each had a small palace maid holding the wine jar to accompany them. They first walked to the middle of the messenger team and said that the world was a family, peace depends on everyone, and work together to build a new world, wish the world, wish tomorrow, and then, drink three cups together.

Then, I walked to the seats of important officials of the court and the pilgrims, saying that everyone has worked hard this year and will continue to work hard next year. Everyone is so tired of state affairs. I have a lot of thoughts in my heart and I can't thank you. I only have these three cups for respect, and I drink three more cups in total.

Finally, he took the queen to the right side of the hall.

The soldiers in the army who have been able to attend this place over the years were originally selected and the backbone. This year, at his request, they made great adjustments just like the imperial court invited the pilgrimage. No matter the position, the corpse position should not come. As long as they have a skill, they shine and heat up the enemy country, they solemnly invite each other... Although they have selected the essence, screened and screened, the final number of those who came here still reached 839, several times the previous ones.

Everyone is their own family, with deep feelings, one mouthful, one mouthful, one cup of tummy, three cups of generous food.

Nine toasts, the task is completed.

In general, among these three groups of people, it is indeed the closest group to me to be close to me. Even those who have won the title belong to this large group.

Only military merits can be granted titles. The real merits and virtual merits are also divided into real merits. Those who have real merits can be awarded a country according to their corresponding merits. However, because there are fewer and fewer places to be granted, the real merits require more and more. Many people's life merits are worth one or two towns, and they are still remote and deserted areas far away in the sky. Therefore, most of them now choose virtual merits. Unlike the virtual king's titles, their titles are reduced from generation to generation, which can maintain a wealth and honor for a longer period of time. As long as a talent that can be granted titles is cultivated during this period, the family status can be maintained without decline. Just like Xue Fuzhen to Weiyuanbo, there are many similar examples. He is just the most outstanding one. Therefore, the army and the nobles who have won titles can be regarded as a whole.

He secretly casts air marks on the 839 targets, and is rubbing around and talking.

As he turned around, he was next to his second child. He was now sharing a seat with Zeng Fan, Xue Li and a few other young people, chewing at his desk, and sometimes he looked up to watch the carefully arranged and festive performance in the distance.

Because each titled person can bring another person to the state banquet, some bring their wives to play the wife's diplomacy, and some bring their most popular children and nephews in their family to increase their knowledge. However, the second prince was willing to fall into being with these little guys, and he is truly the Two Kings.

The courtship battle he launched against Xiao Mi, the vice president of the Women's Academy, who is more than twice as big as him, has caused a sensation in the Women's Academy. The "Two Kings" who have always been unknown have made a big splash. Even the people of Shendu regard it as a trend to discuss this matter.

Two clear-cut views were formed. One was the majority, who called others scum, pervert, unscrupulous, and had no good words anyway; the other was the minority, who started with his friends and friends, and they merged with all the second-rate young heroes and heroes in the capital. They played the love card and praised this as a hymn of love. For the sake of the love in their hearts, they dared to be enemies of secular prejudice. It is said that some literati wanted to use this as the prototype to create love poems.

Seeing his elder brother and sister-in-law approaching, he greeted him with a smile. The elder sister-in-law glared at him angrily and ignored him. He chuckled dryly and continued to eat and drink. He didn't know why, but his appetite became much bigger.

He didn't know that he had been used as a test subject by the unscrupulous elder brother, military energy, martial energy, fighting energy, and food energy, just to see if he could cultivate a monster.
