 Under the lights, many ministers and their families who came to the palace banquet were chatting and laughing away, and slowly sat down in their spots with the guidance of the palace lady.

 On the high table, Emperor Chu Yao of Western Chu and Queen Zhen Xuan sat side by side.

 And besides the throne, there was still a luxurious position, obviously for the protagonist of today: Lingguo estate’s Cloud King.

 Sitting on an equal footing with Western Chu’s Emperor, Lingguo estate’s status was evident.

 As the night progressed, Western Chu’s emperor and all the ministers were completely seated. Although it was getting late, the protagonist of the day had not yet arrived. For a while, the atmosphere of the palace banquet was strangely silent.

 At the entrance of the Four Corners Yard, Zihou was relieved when she finally saw the three words “Four Corners Yard”.

 Originally, she came to the palace with the generals, but because it was still too early, she took the opportunity to stroll around. Unexpectedly, the palace was outrageously large, and she lost her way. It just happened that most of the palace ladies were summoned to the Four Corners Yard. It took a long time before she found a maid and asked for the way there.

 At this time in the Four Corners Yard, the atmosphere was so strangely quiet that the sound of a needle drop was audible. Zihou’s sudden appearance no doubt attracted the attention of almost everyone at once…

 Everyone first could only see the clothes, followed by a white figure slowly appearing.

 Her white clothes were spotless, white and flawless, just like clouds in the sky, as misty as the wind, out of reach.

 Against the light, the blurred figure approached slowly, elegant like the breeze and the moon, step by step, like a white lotus covered in a colorful glow, like a mysterious girl from heaven descending.

 As she approached, her mysterious face that was hidden by the dim lights was gradually exposed to everyone’s eyes.

 Her face turned up to the sky, pure and calm, with voluptuous red lips, magnificent and unparalleled, walking with a domineering and unparalleled queen-like aura!

 All at once, the silent atmosphere of the entire palace banquet was suddenly broken, and the sounds of shock were endless. They never thought that such a woman with this temperament and beauty existed in this world!

 They were all extremely stunned by the beauty that suddenly appeared, and they started speculating in their minds who this stunning woman belonged to.

 “Girl, come here!” After Zihou’s appearance, she attracted countless eyes. Wei Guoting smiled and waved Zihou over with a smug look.

 Wei Guoting’s behavior stunned many people present at the meeting. Except for those noble sons who had seen Zihou at Elegance Restaurant before, most people did not know who she was! Seeing Wei Guoting’s intimate attitude, they started speculating.

 “Wei Zihou, how dare you!”

 However, without waiting for Zihou to take a seat, a piercing voice sounded…

 Chu Linger, who was sitting among the concubines, suddenly stood up, staring at Zihou with an extremely twisted expression. Seeing the radiant Zihou who caught everyone’s eye as soon as she appeared, she was extremely jealous.

 “The palace banquet has already begun. Only appearing now, you’re not showing respect for your father, mother, and all the ministers at all! Wei Zihou, are you despising the emperor’s power and not caring about others!” Chu Linger shouted with a straight face, but her eyes were full of the pleasure of revenge. She believed that this would definitely make Wei Zihou suffer! She could not wait to see the scene of Wei Zihou kneeling and begging for mercy!

 However, what disappointed Chu Linger was that from the beginning to the end, Zihou’s eyes were light, her lips portrayed a smile, and her face was calm as if she did not mind Chu Linger’s words at all.

 Such a calm attitude made Chu Linger even angrier!

 “Oh? The palace feast has already begun? Why didn’t I know that?” Zihou stepped forward, raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a faint and emotionless voice.

 Zihou’s words actually made Chu Linger hesitate. She opened her mouth, swallowed, and could not make a sound.

 It was Zhen Xuan who said sternly with her seductive make-up and a shrill voice, “The emperor and all the ministers are already here. Doesn’t that mean that the palace banquet has started? You uneducated girl, who are you to make so many people wait for you? I must punish you well today to make you understand that you should stay in your place!”

 Facing Zhen Xuan, Zihou looked at her face and then looked away. Immediately, she nodded her head in surprise and said, “Oh? It turns out that the palace banquet has already begun!” As she said this, her evil smile gradually deepened and became more enchanting, making Zhen Xuan feel cold as an inexplicable surge of terror filled her…
