Hidden in the court

Lantern Festival night

Imperial Palace

The ministers took their seats, with Nangong Lin at the head, and Luo Wei and Hu Qiangguang on his left and right.

The emperor waved his hand and the attendants on both sides began to serve wine and food. The sharp-eyed old man Hu immediately found something wrong. The wine was so clear that you could see the bottom. He took a nose and smelled it.

"What a drink!"

I hurriedly picked up the wine glass and drank it all. It was extremely spicy, and I felt the burning sensation in my internal organs, and I was very addicted.

At this time, everyone also discovered that the imperial wine this time was different from before.

The old man was quick-witted and quick-handed, and he took the wine jugs from the hands of several servants around him and brought them in front of him.

Emperor Nangong Lin also laughed and said, "As long as the Duke likes it, there will be plenty of wine today."

After saying that, he secretly glanced at Luo Wei again. Luo Wei did not lose his composure. After all, he was the head of all officials and he had to behave properly.

However, both the emperor and Mr. Hu discovered that this guy drank much faster than usual.

Nangong Lin thought to himself, this won’t work, I have to persuade him!

The recipe for brewing wine was given by Ji Mingshang in exchange for his non-attendance, and Nangong Lin also had to force Lowe to drink wine.

Nangong Lin understood. He just wanted to meet his fiancée secretly. Who wouldn't have some thoughts? Back then, it was just the same thing.

Come to think of it, if I had been braver back then, maybe I would have an heir now... Ahem! Let's not talk about it.

"Prime Minister, you have devoted all your energy to our dynasty. I would like to offer you a toast." As he spoke, he winked at Mr. Hu.

The old man laughed and said he received it.

Lowe had no doubts and had to give face, so he accepted them one by one and returned the favors.

As they clinked glasses, the three of them drank faster and faster, and their consciousness began to blur.

Mr. Hu was leaning over the table, his face flushed. Nangong Lin wasn't much better, his eyes were blurry, and he was shaking as he sat there.

The worst was Luo Wei, who didn't know how to drink. After being forced to drink by the two men, he was lying on the table, mumbling drunken words.

"Your Majesty, you...you made me, hiccup, suffer so much!"

He banged the table as he spoke, and looked like he was about to cry.

"My dear, why, why do you say that..." Nangong Lin was also drunk. Hearing Luo Wei say that, Dao was a little confused.

"You, you are just making a match, betrothing me, my ~daughter, to Ji Jun. I only have one, only one daughter! Ji Jun, what virtue and ability does he have..."

"He has some achievements on the battlefield, but you have also seen what he has been like over the years. A playboy... ahem~"

Maybe he was too excited and his speech became unclear for a moment.

It is understandable, just like an old father watching the cabbages he had carefully taken care of for more than ten years being eaten by the "pig" from his arch-rival next door. The most hateful thing is that this is a "breeding pig".

Nangong Lin frowned after hearing this, "I see, your daughter...hiccup - isn't she quite happy about it?"

Lowe (T_T)!

"Ahem, ahem ~ dear lord! We old guys shouldn't get involved in these matters. If Lin'er really doesn't want to, I will just revoke this decree. Burp - dear lord, drink ~"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lowe also picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

After Luo Wei finished the cup, his eyelids drooped and he fell asleep. Nangong Lin looked at him and said, "Well, he probably won't wake up before noon tomorrow."

Mr. Hu heard the conversation between the two in a daze. He thought to himself,

Of course, we three don't have a son. You find a son-in-law for your daughter, and I can see that my Hu family can also take in a son-in-law. You arranged a marriage? You just married off someone's daughter. In other words, it's still the Luo family who is marrying up. Who can tolerate this!

What should I do with my Ying Er? She can’t pretend to be someone else forever, right?

I didn't dare to say anything, I didn't dare to ask. The old man chose to continue pretending to sleep.
