Chapter 28 Be a human being!



Most people held the wine cup in their hands, took a sip, and kept it raised.

The person in charge of pouring the wine inadvertently glanced up at the scene in the field, and his sight was immediately glued to it. He didn't react until the wine on the table spilled out and dripped onto the ground.

He hurriedly wiped the table clean, but couldn't bear to look at the field.

Sang Luan picked up a piece of crispy duck and found it a bit dry. She took another sip of fruit wine and found it a bit bland.

In a flash, she scooped another spoonful of tofu soup, which was a bit salty, and she turned her attention to the plate of garlic pork.

She noticed from the corner of her eye that Feng Hengzhi's attention was not on her at the moment.

She quickly picked up the bamboo chopsticks and was about to pick up a piece of garlic pork.

Unfortunately, the dish was a little far away from her, so she had to straighten her body a little, holding her wide sleeves with one hand and trying to reach the dish with the other.

Before she even picked up her chopsticks, her eyes met Liu Wenxian's.

Liu Wenxian tilted her head towards Sang Luan, then pointed at Feng Hengzhi.

Sang Luan understood instantly that the other party was telling her that Feng Hengzhi didn't want to eat and was afraid that the food would be wasted, so she had to eat more.

A sense of mission arose in her heart, and she nodded heavily towards Liu Wenxian.

Liu Wenxian breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Sang Luan understood what she meant.

Before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, she saw Sang Luan actually took out a small plate from somewhere and picked up every dish in front of Feng Hengzhi.

Liu Wenxian's pupils suddenly widened, and she glared at Sang Luan.

However, Sang Luan had already sat back down obediently, concentrating on enjoying the delicious food in front of her, and even clinked glasses with Meng Youning calmly from a distance.

Liu Wenxian was so angry that she was filled with rage, but she didn't know how to vent it.

Sang Luan, who was oblivious to what was happening outside, ate while watching the beauties dancing in the arena.

At the same time, a group of palace maids came in one after another from outside the hall, each holding a mahogany tray in her hand, but the mahogany tray was empty.

Immediately, the palace maids took small steps and stood in front of the ministers one by one.

They lowered their brows slightly, bent down slightly, and lifted the mahogany tray forward.

It just happened to block half of the figure of the woman in red in the field.

Someone was in high spirits and, noticing that he could no longer see the beauty's dance clearly, he casually snatched the purse hanging from his waist, took out two ingots of gold and silver from his sleeves, and placed them on the tray.

Everyone's movements were quite unified.

Sang Luan turned sideways and saw Feng Hengzhi consciously taking out a stack of gold leaves from his sleeve. Sang Luan's eyes widened suddenly, and the food in her hand instantly became tasteless.

She is very vulgar. Apart from her best friend Meng Youning, there are only two things in her life that can arouse her interest, namely food and money.

He threw the things on the table, clapped his hands, and leaned closer to Feng Hengzhi involuntarily.

She was more curious about where Feng Hengzhi hid so many gold leaves. Why didn't she find them just now?

If I could give her a few of these gold leaves...

However, the next moment, she saw Feng Hengzhi throw the entire pile of gold leaves directly into the tray of the palace maid in front of him.

Sang Luan's voice couldn't help but rise a little, "You're just going to give away so many gold leaves like that?"

Sang Luan was confused and exchanged a glance with Meng Youning opposite her. How come they didn't remember that giving tips on the spot was popular here?

Why do I always feel something is wrong?

Soon, Sang Luan and Meng Youning realized that something was wrong.

If there was gold, silver or jewelry in the mahogany tray, the palace maid would retreat on her own initiative, while the palace maid whose mahogany tray was empty would maintain the same posture as when she entered the hall.

The tray held by the palace maid in front of Sang Luan and Meng Youning was empty.

Meng Youning coughed lightly, half-covered her lips, and glanced towards Sang Luan intentionally or unintentionally.

Meng Youning: What’s going on?

Sang Luan cleared her throat, touched the pearl hairpin on her temples, then touched her nose, and took the opportunity to give Meng Youning a look.

Sang Luan: I don’t know either. Let’s wait and see.

When they watched this scene at that time, they quickly skipped over it, which resulted in them being completely confused now.

Feng Hengzhi glanced at Sang Luan sideways, and Sang Luan smiled brightly at him.

Feng Hengzhi tilted his head towards her again. Sang Luan didn't understand why, so she also tilted her head like him.

"Don't play dumb, take the silver!" Feng Hengzhi stroked his forehead with his hand, his tone quite impatient.

Sang Luan stepped back, subconsciously covering her pockets, and looked at Feng Hengzhi with a vigilant look, "No!"

Feng Hengzhi slowly picked up a piece of cake and took a bite. "This is the emperor's wish. Are you sure you don't want to give it to me?"

Sang Luan felt a pain in her heart and wanted to say that she had no money.

Although Sang Shaoan didn't like the original owner's insistence on marrying Feng Hengzhi, he still gave her a generous dowry when they got married.

The Feng family was decent people and did not have any inappropriate thoughts about Sang Luan's dowry.

Those dowries are still lying quietly in Furong Garden.

She also planned to use this money as a running fund after a successful divorce.

It's not very credible that she said she had no money.

Sang Luan looked around and found that more than half of the palace maids had retreated again.

She closed her eyes, stretched out her hand to open a small gap in her purse, inserted two fingers and fiddled with it for a while, then took out three pieces of silver and put them on the tray with a forced smile.

He waved to the palace maid in front of him.

The next moment, she felt a lightness around her waist. She lowered her head suddenly and saw that her small purse was gone.

She hasn't touched the things in Furong Garden yet, and now this small purse is all her belongings!

Feng Hengzhi weighed the purse in his hand and said with disdain, "Well, it's a little less, but it's okay."

After saying that, he threw it directly into the tray, and patted it when he took his hand back, as if it was stained with something dirty.

Sang Luan raised her eyes and slowly looked at Feng Hengzhi, "Be a human being!"

The palace maid bent her knees slightly, saluted the two men, and turned to leave.

Before Sang Luan could reach out her hand, she saw the palace maid's back as she left.

All her belongings...

"What are you doing with mine?" Sang Luan glanced at Feng Hengzhi, who was sitting beside her with a calm demeanor. "Why don't you just give yours away?"

Feng Hengzhi tutted his words, "Is it really that serious? It's just a little silver."

Sang Luan sat back in her original position angrily. As for, quite as for!

She raised her eyes and looked at Emperor Zhaowu who was sitting above her, only to see that he seemed to be oblivious to everything. His gaze was fixed on the woman in red in the field, and he would occasionally say a few words to the empress beside him.

Sang Luan couldn't help but look at the opposite side again. Not knowing what Meng Youning said, Qi Ran directly paid out of his own pocket to give Meng Youning a bag of silver, which seemed to be quite heavy.
