Although this joke made Qin Junyu feel a little embarrassed, it did make the atmosphere more relaxed.

Yang Yuerong asked Qin Siyi gossipingly if he had a girl he liked and wanted to be a matchmaker for him. Qin Siyi refused repeatedly, but Yang Yuerong caught him and started to lecture him on some moral issues.

The emperor and Nian Chengyun were talking about something related to politics. They lowered their voices deliberately and immersed themselves in a world that was just the two of them.

"Brother, I want to eat that."

"Brother, I don't eat this."

Qin Guanqing was attacked from both sides by his two younger brothers, his face wrinkled like a bitter gourd. He wanted to get drunk when his eldest brother got married, but he didn't expect that he didn't get to drink, but instead experienced what it feels like to be a father.

He tried to ask Qin Junyu for help, but Qin Junyu calmly looked away, tactically took a sip of wine, and pretended that he saw nothing.

Seeing that everyone was busy and no one was paying attention to her, the Queen glanced at the palace maid Qin Ping behind her.

Qinping understood.

The queen smiled and stood up, and everyone fell silent and looked at her.

Qin Ping stepped forward and poured two glasses of wine. The queen held one glass in each hand and tapped the wall of the glass with her right ring finger. All the medicinal powder in the armor fell into the wine. The colorless and odorless medicinal powder melted into the wine in the blink of an eye.

The wine on the right was handed to Qin Junyu.

Qin Junyu's face changed. Although he didn't understand her intention, he slowly stood up and took the wine.

The queen smiled even more, "Yu'er, today is your and Miss Nian's wedding day. Your mother would like to apologize to you and your wife for what she did before."

Yang Yuerong's face fell immediately. She had always remembered the grudge of the Queen's private punishment of Nian Susu. If Qin Junyu had not arrived in time, she would have lost her son. Could this be written off by an apology?

Even if Nian Susu didn't care, she would never forgive him.

Nian Chengyun's expression was also very interesting. First he was confused, then he was disdainful, and then he was sarcastic. However, in front of so many people, he didn't dare to have any opinions and silently suppressed all his emotions.

Qin Junyu hesitated and did not drink the glass of wine immediately.

The queen brought up this matter now because she wanted to put aside the fact that she had tortured Nian Susu. If he had been drinking, he would never be able to say a word against the queen about this matter again.

"What's wrong, Yu'er? You don't want to forgive your mother, right?" The queen lowered her eyes in disappointment. "Indeed, I shouldn't ask for your forgiveness, but as the saying goes, a harmonious family brings prosperity. As members of the royal family, we should understand this truth even more. Only when the family prospers can the country prosper."

"We are a family after all. We can't have hatred for our whole lives, right?"

Qin Junyu clenched the wine glass so tightly that his back teeth broke. It was the Queen who used moral blackmail to force him to let go and forgive.

Because he didn't show any expression for a long time, the queen looked a little embarrassed holding the wine glass.

The emperor couldn't stand it anymore and stepped out to be a peacemaker, "Yu'er, the queen is right, a harmonious family is the foundation of everything, we are always a family."

Everyone knew what this meant.

Nian Chengyun and Yang Yuerong had to pretend to be magnanimous and try to smooth things over.

The scales tipped towards the Queen.

Qin Junyu had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure it. He drank the wine with a dark face, "The Queen should apologize to the Crown Princess, but she is not here today, so I will drink this glass of wine for her."

The plan was successful, the queen showed a smug smile, stroked her skirt and sat down, picked up the wine Qin Ping had just poured, and poured a glass for the emperor, "Your Majesty, drink."

The emperor agreed with a smile.

The moon was above the treetops. Axuan and Qingyu smiled as they saw off the last guest. The corners of their mouths, which had been raised all day, suddenly fell. Both of them had extremely resentful looks in their eyes. They pinched their stiff cheeks at the same time and dragged their steps back to Qiwu Hall.

Qin Junyu sat alone in the hall, his forehead supported by his hands, his eyes closed. Under the bright moonlight, his back looked somewhat desolate.

The two walked over, and Ah Falcon called out softly, "Your Highness."

Qin Junyu lifted his heavy eyelids, his eyes were blurry.

Qingyu: "The master is drunk, do you want to send the master back to the bridal chamber?"

A Falcon nodded.

Just as the two were about to fight, Qin Junyu waved his hand and stood up shakily, "No need, I will do it myself."

He walked forward, taking one deep step and one shallow step.

"Your Highness, that's the direction of the warehouse." A Falcon reminded in a muffled voice.

Qin Junyu paused, turned around on the spot, and changed direction.

"Your Highness, that is the Mifang Pond."

Qin Junyu stopped again and blinked his eyes. This time he made sure of the direction before moving forward. Finally he did not go wrong because there were only three roads in total.

A Falcon held his forehead and Qingyu smacked his lips.

For safety reasons, they did not let Qin Junyu go back alone, but followed him closely. Although no assassin could sneak into the East Palace to assassinate him, there was no guarantee that Qin Junyu would not fall into the Qinfang Pool in a daze.

There are a total of 586 steps from Qiwu Hall to the east wing. As he walked on the road, the refreshing summer night breeze blew on his body, making Qin Junyu much more awake.

He quickened his pace for the last hundred steps and reached the door.

There were two maids guarding the door. They looked unfamiliar and upon asking, I found out they were the queen's people.

Liuli has a bad habit. On the night of every couple's wedding, the parents will send two slightly older maids to eavesdrop on the couple's wedding. The purpose is to understand whether the couple's life is harmonious. Of course, some of it is just a bad taste.

Qin Junyu had an ugly look on his face and ordered them to leave. If they dared to approach the bridal chamber, he would pull out their tongues tomorrow.

The two maids looked embarrassed. "Your Highness, she is just following orders. The Queen has ordered that we must guard the door and leave at dawn. Otherwise... we will break our legs."

Qin Junyu was impatient, "This is the East Palace, my people know what to say and what not to say. As long as you don't tell anyone, who will know?"

The nanny immediately understood what he meant and left tremblingly.

Qin Junyu straightened his robe and stood at the door for half a minute preparing himself mentally before pushing it open.

A Shun and Qing Yu, who were not far away, witnessed the whole process.

Qingyu stretched her neck while grabbing the bushes. "Why do you think the master wanted to drive them away? Wouldn't it be better if there were someone guarding them?"

Normally when there was an important meeting or a special mission, they would leave someone to keep watch. For something as important as the wedding night, how could they not leave someone guarding the door?

Ah Falcon shook his head. "You don't know this, right? Those two were sent by the Queen. Their mission was not to guard the door, but to eavesdrop."

"Besides, this is the Eastern Palace. Who would dare to go in without your Highness's order?"

Qingyu thought about it carefully. He didn't understand the first part, but the second part was true.

Ah Falcon pulled him closer and said, "We will stay here. If His Highness gives any instructions, we can go over at any time. If anyone tries to force their way in, we can stop them in time."

The two moved forward one meter.

In the room.

Qin Junyu looked through the gauze at the person sitting on the bed and clenched his fists nervously. God knows how long he had been waiting for this moment.
