The Banquet Honouring Zhu Rong

The next day, Prince Kang and his private personal "accidentally" rescued the Envoys from the Wind Kingdom from a group of bandits and they were given temporary residence in Prince Kang's villa inside the capital city. At least according to the official report.

Xing and Chenglei stayed in the villa for a couple of days and Prince Kang specifically asked them to stay inside and Xing had no other way than to comply. Chenglei was keeping himself busy with some official business and he kept everything under secrecy while Xing was reading the novels from the Fire Kingdom and both of them met each other for meals and stayed in separate rooms.

On the third day, they received an invite for an Imperial Banquet for the yearly Festival honouring god of Fire, the patron god of their kingdom.

Apparently that banquet will go on for the entire night and all the guests will be given accommodation inside the Imperial Palace.
