Chapter 265
The sweet and slightly spicy liquor makes your heart race as it goes down.
Afterwards, the two drank several cups of wine and ate a lot of venison. Shen Qingnian did not allow the two little ones to eat too much venison, only allowing them to eat three pieces each. Then she ordered someone to roast pork belly and beef.
The roast meat was delicious, but the two little ones didn't have big appetites and were full quickly. Xiaoju and Zhulan tactfully led them to play in the yard.
Considering that there were little Shen Xi and little Yan Qing inside the palace, many palace lanterns were hung in the courtyard, illuminating the dark night. The two little figures played in the courtyard.
Inside the hall, Shen Qingnian's face was slightly flushed, the smell of the wine she had just drunk rising up and making her fair complexion red.
She looked at the man beside her and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that the Third Prince Meng Yun has some connection with the Goddess."
Shen Qingnian's face was flushed, and her hair, which had been tied up at the back of her head, was now slightly loose, with her sideburns gently falling beside her ears. The night breeze outside the window carried the faint scent of jasmine, which carried the aroma of wine, to Song Xuan's nose.
Song Xuan's Adam's apple bobbed slightly as he said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "That goddess Xia Qianjun was originally the fiancée of Meng Shan, the eldest prince of Chongmeng. Xia Qianjun was born into a general's family, where the men had been military generals for three generations. However, in Xia Qianjun's generation, she was the only child. Because of her upbringing, she also learned martial arts."
On the day the imperial decree of marriage was issued, Xia Qianjun declared that she wanted to join the army, which offended Meng Shan and the royal family. Therefore, Meng Shan cautiously spoke to Emperor Chongmeng, and she was chosen as the goddess.
These are all messages from the Grand Secret Agent.
Shen Qingnian blinked her slightly hazy eyes, which were still a bit blurry from the alcohol. She murmured, "No wonder Miss Xia looks so heroic and knows martial arts. She's such a woman."
It's no wonder that Xia Qianjun could say such things when the marriage was arranged, and that he could openly confront His Majesty when he met me.
Song Xuan nodded: "If Xia Qianjun were a man, or if she were born in a country ruled by a benevolent ruler, she might have become a female general, but she just happened to be in Chongmeng."
As Emperor Chongmeng grew older, he became increasingly absurd. He indulged in the pleasures of goddesses and even built palaces to imprison those goddesses who were originally nobles. How could the aristocratic families be happy to see those noble women being trampled on like this?
Xia Qianjun said those words in public, and even if Meng Shan didn't take action, Emperor Chongmeng wouldn't let her off the hook.
“The Xia family holds the military seal, and her being sent to Da Xuan now might also be for some other purpose,” Shen Qingnian frowned, suggesting another possibility.
We must be wary of people of other races.
A glint of light flickered in Song Xuan's eyes: "It's possible, but we'll notice as soon as she makes a move, so Qing Nian doesn't need to worry."
After saying that, he pulled the woman beside him into his arms. Their breaths mingled, and after saying so much, he was still not satisfied.
Shen Qingnian fell into an embrace tinged with the smell of alcohol. Her face flushed even more, and she couldn't help but whisper, "Your Majesty, Xiao Xi and Yan Qing are still outside..."
Although the two have reconciled, they have not yet become intimate.
As she spoke, she looked at the open palace door, only to find that the door had been closed at some point, and even the windows were tightly shut.
The events outside the hall no longer had any effect on those inside.
"Qing Nian, have you missed me?" Song Xuan pulled her into his arms, burying his head in her neck, his voice muffled.
The "want" he mentioned wasn't that kind of "want"...
Shen Qingnian's heart suddenly raced, and the hand that had wanted to push the man's head away unconsciously turned into a gentle caress.
She lowered her eyes slightly, and what caught her eye was the other person's dark clothes, which reminded her of the scene when they were newly married...
After a moment, she spoke softly, "Yes, I did."
How could she not want to?
When love is at its peak, one naturally wishes to meld the other person into one's very being.
