"Ms. Nian is so cute."
I accidentally said what was on my mind.
The two of them were stunned at the same time and tacitly looked away from each other.
One was so embarrassed that he was busy straightening his clothes and tidying up the messy cakes on the table, while the other shyly drank two glasses of wine.
Nian Susu loved drinking before she traveled through the book, especially when she stayed up all night doing research in the department, she would definitely get drunk the next day.
After she transmigrated into the book, she was controlled by Yang Yuerong in the prime minister's residence and nagged by Zhihua. The wine in the warehouse was not easy to get, so she could only drink it when she sneaked to Yuanlai Restaurant for dinner.
Now that there is so much wine in front of her, she has to enjoy it.
The technology for brewing fine wine in ancient times was not yet mature, so the wine is not pure enough. It is okay to drink more.
Thinking of this, she drank five or six pots of tea by herself.
Qin Junyu became much more cautious because of what had just happened and rarely drank. He would only have a drink when a minister came to toast him out of drunkenness.
Nian Susu didn't expect that the wine would have such a strong aftereffect. He felt a burning sensation in his throat when he first drank it, and then he felt dizzy as the alcohol took effect.
Just at this moment, Tayali came to toast her.
Tayali was the protagonist of the welcoming banquet, so many people went to toast her.
The emperor and the empress tried to find out the real purpose of Xisu Kingdom sending her to Liuli. It was not until the second half that she freed herself and walked to Nian Susu's desk.
Nian Susu felt dizzy and couldn't even sit still, so Qin Junyu helped her up.
"Tayali...Princess, hehe, you dance beautifully...I like it." Her cheeks were flushed and she smiled innocently, "I...I toast to you!"
She grabbed the wine jug and was about to drink when she realized it was empty. She patted Qin Junyu beside her and said, "Zhihua, bring me another... another jug! I want to drink with the princess!"
He could hardly speak clearly and still held on to Qin Junyu's arm.
Tayali wanted to drink with her, but seeing that she was already drunk, it was not appropriate to ask her to drink more, so she looked at Qin Junyu, "Is she... okay?"
It is said that the women of Liuli Country are very delicate. They don't usually drink alcohol because they have to abide by various rules. Nian Susu had six empty wine jugs in her hand. She was just talking nonsense and was not drunk. Tayali was a little surprised.
Qin Junyu secretly supported Nian Susu's shoulders to prevent her from falling into his arms, and replied to Tayali, "Miss Nian is not very good at drinking, but it's not a big deal. If the princess wants to drink, I will toast you."
This cup is for Miss Nian.
Compared with other people in the hall, Tayali had a good impression of these two people, so she did not offend Qin Junyu and toasted him with the wine she was going to toast Nian Susu.
Tayari returned to her seat.
In the eyes of others, it seemed that the princess of Xisu Kingdom had specially walked through the hall to toast the Crown Prince in full view of everyone.
They suddenly came up with a bold idea - Xisu Kingdom wanted to form an alliance with Liuli Kingdom, so they sent a princess, with the purpose of letting the princess marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince or other princes.
There are five princes in the hall: the eldest prince Qin Junyu who holds great power in the East Palace, the second prince Qin Guanqing who is gentle and handsome, the third prince Qin Fengtian who has the support of the Queen, the fourth prince Qin Yisi who is lively and cheerful, and the fifth prince Qin Wenyuan who is still young.
This Princess Tayali obviously has a crush on their prince.
If this is true, would His Majesty agree to let a woman from Xisu marry the Crown Prince?
The Xisu Kingdom was a warlike nation. Both men and women rode horses to hunt and were rude and reckless. The women could not compare with their gentle and soft Liuli girls, and the men had brute force but no wisdom.
So they could ensure that Xisu would not be annexed by other countries, but they had no way to govern the city-state politically.
The Xisu Kingdom sent its princess to the court, saying it was to pay tribute, but in fact it was not.
Several ministers looked at the emperor above. The emperor and Concubine Ning were chatting and laughing, and seemed not to notice the movement below.
After the banquet.
Nian Chengyun was kept by the Queen for a talk. The Queen pretended to be worried that it would be unsafe for Nian to go back alone after being drunk, so she asked Qin Fengtian to send her back home.
Qin Tiantian knew his mother's intention and was unwilling, but did not dare to refuse.
After all the ministers left, the emperor and Concubine Ning returned to the Yangxin Palace, leaving only the empress and Nian Chengyun in the Qinghui Palace.
It was against the rules for concubines in the harem to discuss matters with court ministers in private. The queen was afraid of causing criticism so she took him to the inner room, which seemed even more against the rules.
Nian Chengyun was sweating profusely, standing below with his hands clenched, "What do you want, Madam?"
The queen dismissed her attendants, with a dignified smile on her face, and turned around to light the benzoin on the table, "Chengyun, don't be nervous. I want to talk to Chengyun about family affairs."
It's fine if it's not national politics...
Nian Chengyun was only half relieved. Could it be that the family wanted to punish him for not teaching his daughter well?
The queen seemed to see through his thoughts. She closed the lid of the incense burner, sat back on the chaise longue, and said:
"I don't mean to blame Miss Nian and Miss Nian Er."
He was completely relieved, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and asked, "What did the queen do?"
"I want to talk to the Prime Minister about Miss Nian's marriage."
……
Zhihua supported Nian Susu as they walked out, staggering with each step. Qin Fengtian stood beside them with his arms folded, absent-mindedly looking at the moon boredly and kicking pebbles, completely ignoring the embarrassed Zhihua and Nian Susu.
Nian Susu said incoherently: "I want to go home."
"Miss, let's go home now. Can you hold on for a while?"
Zhihua was really afraid that she would fall asleep, and Qin Fengtian saw that he had no intention of helping her, so she knew she couldn't carry the young lady by herself.
Qin Fengtian was whistling leisurely. He deliberately did not support Nian Susu. He was expecting her to fall flat on her face along the way. That would be great.
He got angry when he thought of what Nian Qiaoyue said to him in Qinghui Palace.
Nian Susu predicted that Princess Tayali would select young ladies from aristocratic families to perform their talents, so before leaving, he deliberately drugged her in the Li Qiu cake to embarrass her.
Who made Nian Susu speak up for Nian Qiaoyue when the Queen wanted to punish her, making everyone think that she was a good sister who protected her younger sister and was kind-hearted.
Since Nian Susu's image in Qin Fengtian's mind was one that said one thing in public and another behind the scenes, he believed Nian Qiaoyue's words without hesitation.
Now, Nian Su Su is viewed with malice and disgust.
When the three of them arrived outside Dongzhimen, the prime minister's carriage was already waiting.
The other girls were not drunk, walked quickly, and left with their father.
There were two carriages parked alone outside Dongzhimen, one belonging to the Prime Minister's Residence and the other to the Eastern Palace.
The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is right at the gate of Dongzhimen.
The four men met each other. Zhihua carried Nian Susu and their gestures of greeting were very irregular, and Qin Fengtian also did it perfunctorily.
"Why is my brother here? Aren't you going back to the East Palace?"
He was at Dongzhimen, obviously about to leave the palace.
Qin Junyu glanced at him indifferently and said, "Why is your royal brother here? I just saw Miss Nian II looking for you anxiously. It seems that you have been bullied." He said it calmly.
"What?" Qin Fengtian was anxious, "Where is Miss Nian Er?"
