I traveled through time just for the jade hairpin, I never wanted to be the queen

The emperor saw that everyone at the banquet was immersed in the atmosphere of drinking and chatting with beautiful women. He did not want to disturb them and stood up to leave the banquet.

When everyone saw the emperor stand up, they all stood up and saluted respectfully.

"Have fun, I'm a little tired, so I'm going to rest first."

"Yes, I send you off to Your Majesty."

"Farewell to my father."

The emperor left the banquet hall under the escort of Eunuch Cui and others.

Among the "royal relatives", some followed the emperor away, leaving only some men at the banquet hall.

The emperor's departure instantly made everyone present feel much more relaxed.

The beauties began to take turns pouring wine for the men, including He Tingxi.

When He Tingxi saw so many women pouring wine for him and persuading him to drink, he resisted at first, but when he saw Ling Xiyue looking at him with an expression as if she was watching a show, he didn't feel jealous at all.

He Tingxi's dissatisfaction gradually deepened, and in order to irritate Ling Xiyue, he drank them all.

Jian Ye Shen saw this and wanted to persuade her, but seeing that Ling Xiyue didn't say anything, he could only watch quietly.

Shi Hui tried to persuade He Tingxi once or twice, but when he saw that He Tingxi ignored him, he fell silent.

He Jingcheng's eyes were always on He Tingxi. Seeing that He Tingxi did not refuse the beautiful woman's offer to drink, he smiled with satisfaction.

After the beauties took turns pouring the wine, they moved on to other men.

Only the lead dancer was kneeling in front of He Tingxi's table and never left.

Qu Xiaowan, who was sitting next to He Jingcheng, saw that the banquet hall was no different from the "Jiaofangsi".

Although there was no beautiful woman pouring wine for He Jingcheng, she knew that this banquet was arranged by He Jingcheng, and she was very dissatisfied.

Just as she was about to speak and prepare to leave, He Jingcheng turned and looked at her with a calm expression.

"Xiao Wan, I still have some things to do, so you should go back home first."

"Okay, that's exactly what I meant." Qu Xiaowan agreed immediately without any reluctance.

When He Jingcheng saw that Qu Xiaowan not only agreed readily but also had a stern face, his face instantly darkened and he wanted to get angry, but he held back and said coldly: "Then go back."

Upon hearing this, Qu Xiaowan immediately stood up, without even saying hello, and turned around and left.

He Jingcheng looked at Qu Xiaowan's back and became instantly furious, but seeing that everyone on the scene was a stranger, he endured it.

However, he couldn't help but complain, "He has a bad temper and takes himself too seriously. It's unreasonable."

Fang Di, who was standing behind him, just watched quietly without expressing any opinion.

He Jingcheng quickly recovered his mood. He stood up and slowly walked towards He Tingxi.

As soon as she saw He Jingcheng coming, the woman kneeling on the ground immediately saluted He Jingcheng.

"This servant greets His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

Seeing this, He Jingcheng smiled at the woman and nodded.

At this time, He Tingxi's face was flushed and he was a little drunk because he had drunk a lot of wine.

When he saw He Jingcheng coming over, he handed the wine glass in his hand to He Jingcheng.

"Second brother, you're just in time, would you like to have a drink too?"

"No, I've already drunk a lot." He Jingcheng waved his hand and declined.

Seeing that He Jingcheng didn't take it, He Tingxi drank it himself in big gulps and then put down the cup.

"Royal brother, judging from your appearance, you seem to have drunk a lot today. You'd better not drink anymore. It will be bad if you get drunk." He Jingcheng persuaded in a hypocritical manner.

"It's okay. A little bit of wine is no problem at all. With my alcohol tolerance, I can drink a few more pounds without any problem." He Tingxi said casually.

"Royal brother, this is really a huge amount."

He Jingcheng flattered, and then he looked at the woman next to him with a curious look.

"My Royal Brother, are you in such a good mood today? Is it because of this beauty in front of you?"

After He Jingcheng finished speaking, he deliberately looked at Ling Xiyue with a hint of provocation.

When Ling Xiyue saw He Jingcheng looking at her, she looked calm and not angry at all.

Seeing this, He Jingcheng became more confused and quickly turned to look at He Tingxi.

As soon as He Jingcheng finished speaking, He Tingxi also looked at Ling Xiyue. Seeing that Ling Xiyue still did not show any jealousy, he became more unhappy.

"That's right. With a beauty pouring wine for you, you should drink more, of course." He Tingxi said deliberately.

"Oh, so the emperor is very satisfied with the beauty, right?" He Jingcheng quickly got to the point.

When asked by He Jingcheng, He Tingxi hesitated. He subconsciously looked at Ling Xiyue, wanting to know Ling Xiyue's attitude.

When Ling Xiyue saw He Tingxi looking at her, she naturally understood what He Tingxi meant, but when she thought about diverting He Tingxi's love, she had no choice but to harden her heart.

"Your Highness, if you like me, it would be nice to accept me as a concubine." Ling Xiyue said hypocritically.

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

The most shocked was He Tingxi. He never expected Ling Xiyue to say this.

At this moment, his anger began to burn, and he said angrily: "Since the princess has no objection, then I will accept it and make her my concubine."

Upon hearing this, Jian Ye Shen and Shi Hui looked at each other in tacit understanding. Jian Ye Shen stood aside and gently advised, "Your Highness, please do not act on impulse."

"Your Highness, please think twice." Shi Hui also advised.

He Tingxi glanced at Jian Yeshen and Shi Hui out of the corner of his eye. He paused for a moment and wanted Ling Xiyue to speak up to stop them, but after waiting for a while, Ling Xiyue not only did not stop them, but also agreed.

"Okay, then take her back to the mansion and make her a concubine."

Ling Xiyue's "generosity" really made He Tingxi collapse, and he was extremely angry.

He Jingcheng was also shocked when he heard this. He thought Ling Xiyue would be angry, but she agreed so generously, which was completely beyond his expectation.

"What's your name?" He Tingxi looked at the woman and asked.

When the woman saw it, she quickly responded, "My name is Sumei, which means the plain plum blossom."

"Sumei? It's a nice name." He Tingxi deliberately praised her, and then he asked, "Are you willing to go back to Prince Yan's Mansion with me and be my concubine?"

Su Mei was instantly overjoyed. She immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to He Tingxi.

"I am very honored that His Royal Highness Prince Yan likes me. I am willing."

"Okay, then you will follow me back to Prince Yan's Mansion today." After He Tingxi said this, he looked at Ling Xiyue deliberately.

When Ling Xiyue saw He Tingxi looking at her, she still looked calm.

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness Prince Yan." Su Mei smiled.

"Shi Hui, go back home." He Tingxi looked at Shi Hui sideways and ordered.

Shi Hui was stunned for a moment. He looked at Ling Xiyue first. Seeing that Ling Xiyue didn't react at all, he had no choice but to answer, "Yes."

Then, he pushed the wheelchair and walked out of the banquet hall.

When Ling Xiyue saw He Tingxi leave, she also stood up, left her seat, and followed Shi Hui.

In order to take care of Ling Xiyue more conveniently, Jian Ye Shen always stayed by Ling Xiyue's side.

At this time, Su Mei stood up and looked at He Jingcheng intentionally. He Jingcheng understood what Su Mei meant, and he nodded slightly at her.

Su Mei understood the meaning instantly. She bowed slightly to He Jingcheng and followed Ling Xiyue.
