After saying that, he drank it all in one gulp.

Sang Yan picked up the wine jug and filled it again.

The three countries present watched Sang Yan drink with his head tilted back, each with his own thoughts.

Chu Yue had already thought of many countermeasures in her mind, but she didn't expect Sang Yan to come up with such a speech, which was simply a slap in the face of Dong Yu.

Prince Yu twirled the jade ring on his thumb between two fingers. The Third Prince of Beili is really not an ordinary person.

Ye Qianning remained silent and watched Sang Yan's performance quietly.

The Third Prince's Mansion is just a few streets away from Xianrenzui, and it took only one stick of incense to arrive. The reason behind this will become clear if you think about it carefully: she built this ladder.

So perfect!

I couldn't help but praise it!

Sang Yan drank three cups of wine, his throat burning, and put down the glass: "Today, I am the host."

"You're welcome, Third Prince." A hint of embarrassment flashed across Chu Yue's face.

"Princess, you don't have to be so polite. How can we host a banquet for envoys in Beili? If this rumor gets out, people will think that Beili is a narrow-minded country." Sang Yan was gentle and his voice was more powerful than before.

Chu Yue was so embarrassed that she couldn't say anything.

Prince Yu felt extremely embarrassed, but luckily they didn't do anything.

Xiliuyuan was indifferent and didn't care.

Whoever set up this scheme will be the one to suffer. They were just invited, that's all.

"Third Prince, we are not being polite to each other." Ye Qianning spoke at the right time.

Chu Yue's heart tightened.

Hearing this, Sang Yan lowered his head and looked at the little man next to him: "Really?"

"Of course. They invited the three kingdoms to the Xianrenzui Banquet, but didn't invite our Beili. Do you think she is polite or not?" Ye Qianning raised his head and puffed out his cheeks, seeming to be very angry.

Sang Yan raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Yue.

Chu Yue explained with a stiff smile, "I submitted my farewell letter to the Northern Emperor yesterday, and thought it would be a courtesy to invite the envoys from Nanyuan and Xiyan to dinner before leaving the capital."

"Really?" Sang Yan said indifferently.

"Of course, I know that the thief in the palace has not been caught yet and Your Highness is busy, so I didn't dare to disturb you. Please forgive me." Chu Yue spoke sincerely.

"Speaking of which, the princess has indeed considered Beili. How thoughtful." Sang Yan said slowly, with a fake smile on his face, and then asked, "What state affairs are you talking about?"

"It was just a casual remark, but the kid actually took it seriously." Chu Yue said.

Sang Yan didn't look at her, but just lowered his head and asked Ye Qianning.

Ye Qianning shook his head: "The Crown Prince of Xiyan said that discussing state affairs was a waste of time and he wanted to leave. She didn't let them go, which meant she had state affairs to discuss. The Crown Prince of Xiyan also said that he would not discuss state affairs with women, but she immediately sent someone to invite the prince. Is there any state affairs? Is there any need to guess? Anyway, they didn't let me listen and just wanted to get rid of me."

Sang Yan's dark color became complicated.

Chu Yue felt murderous intent in her heart again. Her good plan was ruined by a little kid.

Ye Qianning slowed down and then said angrily, "Even if they chase me away, I can't leave. After all, my father is the General of Beili. Protecting Beili is the responsibility of the General's Mansion. I am the daughter of a general, so of course I have the responsibility to protect Beili. If the three countries get together, they might say something bad about our Beili. We can't let her succeed."

As Sang Yan listened to these words, he felt more and more that she was very similar to Xiang Minghou. The saying "a tiger father will have a dog daughter" was probably used to describe her.

He raised his hand to stroke her head, his eyes fixed on Chu Yue. "Princess Dongyi, is there any state affairs you want to discuss with Xiyan? Why not let me listen to them?"

Chu Yue's eyes flickered, and she gave a stiff smile that was difficult to speak: "It's some private matters between Xi Yan and Dong Yi."

"I'm really curious about what private matter could make the princess like this?" Sang Yan asked tactfully.

Chu Yue had an indescribable look on her face.

"The young prince is also very curious about the private affairs of Xiyan and Dongyi." Xiliuyuan raised his eyes.

"Alas, this matter concerns the reputation of the Dongwei royal family. I originally wanted to discuss it with Xiyan in private, but I didn't expect it to cause misunderstandings. I can only speak frankly." Chu Yue said a few embarrassing words with embarrassment, paused and looked at Xiliuyuan: "Nine years ago, my sister married Xiyan. A few years ago, the Sixth Prince of Xiyan divorced my sister and sent her back to Dongwei on the charge of infidelity. Not long after returning to Dongwei, she gave birth to a son. Now the child is four years old. My sister hopes that the child will recognize his ancestors, so she asked me to discuss it with Xiyan if I meet the envoy from Xiyan. My sister was framed back then. As long as the child is brought to Xiyan for blood recognition, it will surely prove the injustice suffered by my sister..."

She was so moved by the long speech that her pretty face was filled with sadness...

“…”

Ye Qianning pouted again and again, she was really good at making up stories.

Even though what she said was so truthful, Sang Yan looked indifferent and didn't believe it at all.

Prince Yu wanted to curse after hearing this. What did this series of events have to do with their Nanyuan?

Xiyan and Dongyi have a private matter, why invite Nanyuan?

Not only does he not betray others about this mess, but he also specially invites people to be listeners?

ill!

After Chu Yue finished speaking, the scene was quiet for a while.

It was so quiet that she could hardly pretend anymore. It was so awkward!

"Ridiculous." Xiliuyuan stood up and said coldly.

"Your Highness, the child is a royal family after all..."

"Kill him, I will announce it to the world." The extremely cold words showed his arrogance.

Chu Yue was stunned.

"Third Prince, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Xiliuyuan finished speaking, and without waiting for Sang Yan to speak, he walked out of the room.

When Chu Yue suddenly came back to her senses, Xiliuyuan had already left. She was shocked.

Killed?

Announce to the world? What does he want to announce to the world?

The princess's reputation was damaged, and it was a slap in the face of the entire country. Dongwei had spent a lot of effort to suppress the matter of the imperial sister...

"Tsk, the Crown Prince of Xiyan is so cold at such a young age that it makes people tremble." Prince Yu stood up and cursed the royal family of Dongyi in his heart, but did not dare to offend them on the surface.

"Seventh Princess needs to think more carefully before she acts. As the most noble person in Xiyan, with a heavenly appearance, wouldn't it be dirtying her hands if she handled such matters?" Sang Yan advised.

Chu Yue’s mind was full of Xiliuyuan’s words. If she really announced it to the world, her father would be furious.

"Seventh Princess, I'm leaving now." Prince Yu turned around and said, "Chen'er, let's go back to the post station.

"Uncle Wang, didn't we say we were going to the Prime Minister's residence to get the piano?" Helian Chen said.

"It's a little late today. I'll visit you tomorrow."

"It's not too late."

"Are you going to pick up the zither but are you planning to come back empty-handed?" Prince Yu sighed inwardly. What could he do since his nephew was too stupid?

Helian Chen suddenly understood and looked at Ye Qianning: "Little Fatty, I will visit you again tomorrow."

"Okay." Ye Qianning nodded with a smile.

King Yu bowed to Sang Yan and said goodbye, then left with Helian Chen.

Ye Qianning looked up at Sang Yan.

Sang Yan touched her head and asked, "Are you full?"

"kindness."

"Let's go too." Sang Yan said, looking at Chu Yue, whose face was dark. "Seventh Princess, goodbye."

Chu Yue looked up in a daze, and her gaze instantly shifted to Ye Qianning.

Ye Qianning smiled and shook his head, looking like a smug villain.

Sang Yan lowered his eyes helplessly, bent down and took the little kid's hand. When they reached the door, he turned back and reminded him, "It would be more appropriate for the king to deliver a letter to Xiyan regarding Dongyi's state affairs. Hosting a banquet for Nanyuan and Xiyan to discuss the matter in public would undermine the royal dignity."

After he finished speaking, he took Ye Qianning out the door.

Chu Yue clenched her fingers in her sleeves, and her pretty face became sinister and distorted after Sang Yan left. She raised her hand, picked up the cup on the table and threw it heavily to the ground, making a crisp cracking sound.

Then he bent down and used both hands to overturn the table in front of him, and the dishes fell to the ground with a crash.

Although Qin Huai was the prince consort, he was also very afraid of Chu Yue and did not dare to say much when she was furious.

"What a great general's mansion." Chu Yue was twisted and furious.

"Your Highness, the most urgent thing now is to think about how to stabilize Prince Xiyan. If he really tells the world about the princess's affairs, the emperor will definitely be angry." Qin Huai wanted to organize himself when he heard the latter part of the story. He tried to speak several times but was stopped by her secret gaze.

She pretended to be affectionate and moved, and would take her anger out on him if he interrupted her.

"Of course I know." Chu Yue angrily scolded: "I leave the affairs of Xiyan to you. From today on, I will never let the little girl in the General's Mansion go."

"Your Highness, listen to my advice. The young lady from the General's Mansion cannot be touched."

"What? Are you afraid of even a child?"

"It's not that I'm afraid, but my status cannot be changed. We have been very well-behaved in Beili. We must not get involved in other things when that thing is about to be done. The secret guards around the young lady of the general's mansion are very skilled, so it is not easy to solve them easily." Qin Huai analyzed the situation.

He had carefully observed the child since the banquet when Emperor Beili granted the prince a marriage.

She looks cute and harmless, but her observation skills are very strong and she cannot be treated as a six-year-old child at all.

"He's just a middle-level secret guard. I'll take care of him myself." Chu Yue didn't take Luo Wen seriously at all.

"Princess, although Marquis Xiang Ming is not here, the General's Mansion is not easy to break into. I heard that the Zhan family couple, the young master Zhan, and Qian Fanji all live in the General's Mansion. There must be more than three or five hidden guards in the mansion."

"So what if there are so many people?"

Qin Huai said helplessly, "Your Highness, don't forget the Emperor's instructions. The most important thing before leaving is the Eighth Prince. He can't make any mistakes. Once this matter is settled, Your Highness will have plenty of opportunities to decide how to deal with the young lady from the General's Mansion. It'll just be a little later."

Chu Yue stared at him with angry eyes.

"Your Highness, I will contact Xiyan secretly. During this period, Your Highness should not make any moves. Tomorrow, before leaving, you can visit the Eighth Prince more often. If that matter is done, will Dongyi still be afraid of Xiyan in the future?" Qin Huai persuaded earnestly.

He had said before that it was inappropriate to host a banquet for both countries, but the princess did not listen and instead arranged this situation without his knowledge.

The mess is now difficult to clean up.

Chu Yue's anger was still there, she just nodded with a sullen face.

"Your Highness, you must listen to me this time and must not take any other action." Qin Huai knew at a glance that she didn't take it to heart at all.

"I know, stop nagging." Chu Yue responded irritably, waving her sleeves and leaving the room.

Qin Huai sighed secretly and winked at the guard beside him.

The guard saluted, turned around and went out to follow Chu Yue.

——

When Sang Yan and Ye Qianning walked to the second floor, they heard crackling sounds coming from upstairs. The two paused, looked at each other, and looked upstairs at the same time.
