The two beauties, Ling Fei and Ji Ruhua, sitting together naturally attracted countless people's attention. Logically, with their looks, no woman would have the confidence to sit next to them. Isn't that obviously like the green leaves setting off the red flowers?
There is no need to clarify who is the green leaf and who is the red flower. Anyway, no woman would be so stupid.
But, there is such a fool.
Luo Bai.
Luo Bai was wearing a white long dress, with her hair casually tied up. Her eyes were bright and lively, her skin was fair, and her cheeks were slightly red because she had secretly drunk some wine. She was so white and tender that she was extremely cute, just like a lively and active rabbit.
Look at Ling Fei and Ji Ruhua again.
One is ethereal and beautiful; the other is exquisitely beautiful. Luo Bai's cuteness is unique.
Then sat down in order the Prime Minister Ziliang, the Imperial Envoy, the officials seated according to their rank, and the daughters of the officials in the court.
Ji Xingzhi looked at the joyful scene in the hall and took the lead in raising the wine glass in front of him. He said loudly to everyone in the hall: "Welcome everyone to my Lizhou Kingdom. I was ill in bed before and did not meet you in person. I hope you will forgive me. I will drink a glass as punishment."
After that, Ji Xingzhi drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
After drinking it, Ji Xingzhi suddenly realized that this nm was actually strong liquor!
The hall was completely silent. Hua Yihen, who had always disliked these banquets, was the first to break the silence. He glanced at Ji Xingzhi coldly and said in a cold voice, "One cup is not enough?"
As soon as this was said, Shui Lianche took over the conversation and jokingly said, "How about drinking three cups as punishment?"
Ji Xingzhi's grip on the cup tightened slightly. "Are you kidding? This is real strong liquor!" One glass makes her throat burn. Three glasses, it would be strange if she wasn't drunk afterwards!
"Okay! I'll drink two more cups." Ji Xingzhi said while maintaining the dignity of an emperor.
Actually, it’s just about saving face.
Rumei knew that Ji Xingzhi could not drink much, so when pouring wine for Ji Xingzhi, she did not fill the cup full, but only poured half a cup. Ji Xingzhi nodded secretly. Rumei was the right girl to choose!
When Ji Xingzhi picked up the cup and was about to drink, Hua Yihen suddenly spoke again.
"When Emperor Li drank the first cup just now, he was not punished to drink three cups, so that cup does not count as part of the three cups." Hua Yihen said coldly.
Ji Xingzhi's face darkened slightly when she heard this. She couldn't help but curse Hua Yihen in her heart. Did this guy take the wrong medicine or not? Why is he deliberately making things difficult for her?
Ji Xingzhi glared at Hua Yihen coldly. All the guilt she had been feeling towards him for the past few days vanished at that moment. As if in a fit of anger, she said coldly, "Three cups, that's it."
After that, Ji Xingzhi drank three cups in a row. After three cups, Ji Xingzhi felt his stomach was hot and uncomfortable.
At this time, Ji Xingzhi was really regretful. When Wu Fang suggested diluting her wine with water, she shook her head firmly. She said that she couldn't take the lead in cheating and should be a good emperor with an upright image. There was nothing wrong with drinking a little wine. In Anxianglou, she could drink a lot.
If I knew she was drinking strong liquor, I would beat her to death without saying a word!
Seeing this, Rumei hurriedly poured Ji Xingzhi a cup of tea and placed a plate of pastries in front of Ji Xingzhi, allowing Ji Xingzhi to clear his throat and get rid of the taste of alcohol in his mouth.
Ji Xingzhi secretly sighed that Rumei was still considerate.
At this time, Hua Yihen suddenly raised his glass and stood up, saying to Ji Xingzhi: "Your Majesty is so straightforward. I toast you."
