Jin Shiqi was stunned.
What's going on? A drinking contest? And with a woman no less? He absolutely can't lose!
Without saying a word, Jin Shiqi also tore open the wine seal, tilted his head back, and poured it down.
In a short time.
Everyone was stunned.
The eldest princess snorted coldly at Jiang Jiaojiao, "My wine is a top-quality brew, and you've ruined it like this. You have to compensate me!"
"No problem, no problem."
Jiang Jiaojiao's gaze swept over the princess's smooth lips, and she laughed, "I'll compensate the princess with twenty jars later!"
"That's more like it!"
The eldest princess turned around haughtily, passed by the fifth prince's wine table, and looked coldly at Jiang Xue, "You really are quite capable."
"Fifth Prince, you must be careful, lest you suffer the same fate as me and be bitten by a poisonous snake."
The Fifth Prince blushed slightly and bowed somewhat embarrassedly, saying, "Thank you for reminding me, Your Highness. I will definitely arrange a banquet another day to properly apologize to you."
Jiang Xue's body trembled violently. She lowered her head, trembling and afraid to make a sound. She was still traumatized by the beating she received from the Princess.
"No need, I can't accept that."
The eldest princess coldly refused, sat down steadily, and glanced at Jiang Xue and Jiang Jiaojiao.
She was a princess who grew up in the harem and had seen countless intrigues and schemes. How could she be deceived by Jiang Xue's pretentious and hypocritical face? She was simply blind!
Ever since Jiang Xue's true colors were exposed, the Princess now sees her as petty and narrow-minded, which makes her utterly repulsive.
In terms of talent, she is not as good as the current Fifth Prince's wife; as for appearance, she used to be considered gentle and lovely, but now she has become timid and resentful, and her looks have become mediocre, which makes people feel annoyed just looking at her.
No one can compare to Jiang Jiaojiao's radiance and elegance.
The eldest princess grew increasingly disgusted with the sight of him, and this disgust extended to the fifth prince as well. Men with poor taste are no better than the seventh prince, who had the best eyes to recognize his worth.
Jiang Xue lowered her head and shrank behind the Fifth Prince, her eyes filled with barely suppressed resentment.
Jiang Jiaojiao really healed the princess's face!
In other words, Jiang Jiaojiao's medical skills are genuine! That real medical book must have fallen into Jiang Jiaojiao's hands!
Jiang Jiaojiao stole her opportunity!
After discovering that she was repeatedly failing to achieve her goals in practicing medicine, she confronted Jiang Liu and learned that the medical book he had found for her was not actually from the descendants of that legendary doctor.
In her anger, Jiang Xue no longer dared to believe the medical books that spoke of practicing medicine and saving lives. All she could do now was to plan ahead according to the prophecies in the storybooks.
Without the Jin family's wealth, the favors of the General's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion, and the support of the Eldest Princess...
It doesn't matter!
As long as she assists the fifth prince to become crown prince and ascend the throne, just like in the folk tales.
Then Jiang Xue—
They remain the ultimate winners!
"Impressive drinking capacity!"
Luo Shier couldn't help but slam her hand on the table. If it weren't for the Fourth Princess holding her back, she would have wanted to have a competition too!
Jiang Lingtian sat behind the Seventh Prince and quickly glanced at Luo Twelve. Seeing that she did not step forward rashly, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head and nodded, as if he had disappeared, quietly and unnoticed by anyone.
It was already the third urn, but the Northern Mongol princess remained unfazed. Jin Shiqi shook his dazed head and found that the beauty in front of him had multiplied into one, two, three... and then merged back into one charming and beautiful woman. She slurred, "You...you are so beautiful."
Then--
He collapsed onto the table, completely drunk.
Alina tossed the wine jar aside, "Hahaha—awesome!"
That's all.
Shaking Jin Shiqi, he exclaimed, "Good wine! Get up! Keep drinking!"
Jin Shiqi stood up unsteadily, pointed at Alina, and said, "What kind of good wine is this? My family's wine cellar has plenty of good wine. If you're so capable, come back with me and drink... drink for three days and three nights!"
Alina's eyes instantly brightened, shining like the most dazzling stars on the grassland, radiating an intoxicating light. She excitedly shouted, "Let's go! Let's go now!"
Jin Shiqi was not to be outdone. Despite being somewhat drunk, he firmly replied, "Who...who's afraid of who! Let's go!"
At this moment, Jin Shiqi was so drunk that he was completely confused and didn't even know what he was saying.
He had only one thought in his mind—he absolutely could not lose to this woman!
No, this isn't a woman, it's a brother, a buddy!
Without hesitation, Jin Shiqi stretched out an arm and tightly embraced Alina's shoulder, saying drunkenly, "Come on! I'll take you out for a good meal and drinks!"
His tone revealed a sense of boldness and unbridled spirit.
Alina's eyes grew brighter, sparkling with anticipation, and she suddenly asked, "Are you married?"
Jin Shiqi, his tongue tumbling out from drunkenness, asked, "What's so good about getting married?"
"Being brothers for life is great! Women... women are such a hassle! Come on! I'll take you for drinks! I'll find you the most beautiful woman and the strongest liquor!"
Alina's enthusiasm grew even stronger, and she followed Jin Shiqi.
Before leaving, she waved to the Emperor and the King of Northern Mongolia, saying, "Your Majesty, my brother, I will choose my own husband. Goodbye!"
That's all.
Ignoring the messenger's repeated calls behind him, he forgot all about the stunningly handsome Seventh Prince and the gentle and affectionate Fifth Prince, and walked away without looking back.
A sudden roar erupted inside the hall.
The emperor laughed heartily, "The princess has such a good temperament!"
The King of Northern Mongolia was furious, and the messenger quickly chased after him, calling out as he went, "Princess—slow down, wait for me!"
The hall erupted in laughter.
Luo Shier secretly gave Jiao Jiao a thumbs up. What a clever move to divert trouble! The Northern Mongol princess and the Jin family's seventeenth daughter are quite a good match. If they really get together, they will definitely be a pair of bickering lovers.
Jiang Jiaojiao returned a mysterious smile.
What kind of story will unfold for this bickering couple in this lifetime?
In her previous life, this concubine of the Fifth Prince almost stole her seventeenth cousin to be her stable boy. The two clashed several times and were like oil and water.
But……
Unexpectedly, when the Fifth Prince purged the Jin family after ascending the throne, she actually pleaded for the Jin family and even secretly sent people to try to save them.
Unfortunately, the Fifth Prince kept a close watch on them, and not only did he fail to save the Jin family, but he also added the crime of bribing the harem and spying on the emperor's will to the Jin family's reputation.
Jiang Jiaojiao smiled and looked at the Fifth Prince.
In this lifetime... we absolutely cannot let him ascend to that position!
As if by telepathy, Li Yan looked at Jiao Jiao at the same time, not missing the fighting spirit burning in her eyes.
The corners of his mouth turned up in a smile.
If Jiaojiao wants to fight, then let's fight!
The Fifth Prince suddenly looked up and met two pairs of provocative eyes. He smiled gently, concealing the fierce fighting spirit surging in his eyes.
The second prince was furious because of the Northern Mongol princess's choice.
Upon discovering that Jiang Jiaojiao was looking at the Fifth Prince, she became even more furious and glared fiercely at him.
His gaze swept over Jiang Xue behind the Fifth Prince, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Fifth Brother is really lucky with women."
"Thank you for your praise, Second Brother."
The Fifth Prince raised his cup in response, smiling gently, displaying the demeanor of a humble gentleman who was indifferent to worldly affairs.
It attracted a lot of praise.
On the other side.
The thirteenth prince, who had been pulled by the thirteenth prince to mingle among the Jin brothers, quietly peeked out.
That's terrifying!
Jin Shiqi is truly a good brother, but what if the Northern Mongol princess takes a liking to him?
The Thirteenth Prince glanced at the women in the hall and sighed softly. On such a fine day, why did Bao'er go to accompany the Empress Dowager?
The thirteenth prince was also quite frightened. "Let's go, let's get away! Women are too scary!"
