In the evening, the three of them sat in the carriage that brought them to the palace. They did not expect to see Bai Fan in the palace.

Zhan Xiaolou pulled on his white fan in surprise. "Didn't you say you were leaving Beijing for Southcloud at noon? "Why …"

Why did he come to the palace again?

Bai Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I was preparing to leave, but the empress's invitation has arrived. I can only postpone it for one day."

White Fan was the number one tycoon in the Moon Curse, and he was the one who made most of the deals with the other kingdoms. As such, the empress valued him greatly, and it could be seen from his invitation to the banquet.

Actually, Bai Fan had another identity; the Chief Protector of the first floor.

However, other than the people of the first floor and the empress, no one else knew of this identity.

According to the rules, no one from the first floor was allowed to leave the mountain. However, there had to be someone outside to gather information and understand the world's affairs. And Bai Fan just happened to take on this task.

The two of them did not speak much, and only someone from the palace shouted that the banquet was about to begin.

Everyone took their seats, and the empress, supported by her servants, walked in gracefully and gracefully, and everyone got up and kowtowed to her.

After taking her seat, the empress smiled gracefully and said in a loud voice, "We love you all. It's the fifteenth of the first month, so we'll treat it like we're at home. Don't be so formal."

The empress had spoken these polite words every year, but there was no one who could take this place as their home. The empress had spoken these words every year, but there was no one who could take this place as their home.

A melodious sound of music rang out. The dancers wore beautiful dancing costumes as they filed into the hall one by one. Everyone was concentrating on enjoying the beautiful dance.

One person's line of sight was always on Lou Cheng.

She was still as relaxed as usual, and seemed to be in a good mood. She chatted with the girl beside her from time to time, and her face was full of smiles.

"Yu Xuan, you don't look well, but do you feel uncomfortable?" Feng Yu had long noticed that ever since they started fighting in the small building, Feng Yu's gaze had never left her body.

Zhan Xiaolou over at the other side seemed to have noticed his gaze and actually glanced over. Feng Yushu hastily looked away but was still discovered by Zhan Xiaolou.

The empress sat on the highest seat, and could clearly see the people below. She could clearly see all the movements of Feng Yushu.

The empress sighed and looked at her husband.

"Hong'er is getting thinner and thinner."

The prince's husband knew that she was just indirectly blaming him for not taking care of the Ninth Prince and Zhan Hu, but it was Feng Yushu who suddenly said one day that he did not want to marry Zhan Xiao Lou and did not want to see her again, so he could not say that to the empress.

"The Ninth Prince seems to have a lot on his mind. Recently he's been averse to eating and has become too thin to talk about. Why don't we wait for the banquet to end and invite Doctor Zhan to come over to take a look? Empress, will you come with us to take a look?"

The prince's husband wanted the empress to see for herself how Feng Yu Zheng would treat Lou Cheng, so she wouldn't blame him for it.

"Fine, that's it."

What happened next astonished the empress, the royal husband, and even Lou Cheng.

Feng Yu Xuan suddenly stood up, poured a full cup of wine, and steadily walked in front of Zhan Xiaolou.

"In the first cup, I salute Divine Doctor for his contribution to our country's population. I thank you on behalf of all those who have accepted your help."

Zhan Xiaolou looked at Feng Yu Xuan in shock.
