With the alcohol tolerance she developed on the grassland, it was enough to get the two of them drunk.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Tang Miaoling's eyes lit up immediately, and she said excitedly, "I specially brought ten jars of plum wine from the palace. Sister Wei and my cousin don't like to drink, so it's rare to meet someone who shares the same taste!"

"Cui Ping, hurry up and get some wine. We won't go home until we're drunk today!"

Wei Yingya smiled and took over the conversation, "Dong Wu, go get the salted peanuts and beef strips I made this morning. They'll be perfect as side dishes."

"Yes, yes, yes, go to the dining room and order a few more dishes!" Tang Miaoling ordered the palace servants.

After a while...

On the square table in the main hall were placed a wide variety of dishes and two jars of plum wine.

Three people having a drink.

Qizhu glanced at the palace maids and eunuchs guarding the room, and said casually, "I have something personal to say to you two sisters."

Private conversations are not suitable for outsiders to hear.

Tang Miaoling nodded suddenly, "Everyone, go out. Just leave Cuiping to serve by the side."

All the palace servants withdrew.

Qizhu looked at Tang Miaoling, her eyes reddened, tears streaming down her cheeks as she tried to speak: "Sisters, I want to go home..."

Tang Miaoling nodded, empathizing, "I understand. I wanted to go home before, too."

"What about now?" Wei Yingya asked curiously.

Tang Miaoling chuckled, "Now I think it's best for me to stay with my cousin. Even at home, it's not as safe as with my cousin!"

If she had not entered the palace and married into a noble family, she might have been harmed by some concubine or sister-in-law.

If you stay at home without getting married, you may be harmed by your relatives.

After much thought, I decided that only by following my cousin can I live a long life.

hey-hey.
