Many people came to the palace banquet today. All officials above the third rank were present, accompanied by their daughters of marriageable age. They were dressed beautifully and exquisitely, and they all hoped to be favored by His Majesty and enter the palace as concubines.
Xie Guanlan sat on the dragon throne, his cold and sinister face was extraordinarily handsome, his slender and bony fingers held the wine glass, and his eyes occasionally fell on Yuan Jiang who was sitting beside him.
Today she was particularly beautiful. The clothes in the palace were gorgeous and exquisite. Her petite and graceful figure was dressed in a long dress woven from feather green satin and decorated with hundreds of flowers. Her waist was slender and could be held in one hand, and she wore a lotus-colored belt. Her hair was adorned with intricate and gorgeous pearl flowers. Her beautiful eyes seemed to ripple with light, and her tender and plump lips had a rosy color.
As if noticing his gaze, Yuan Jiang slowly raised her eyes, curled her lips and smiled at Xie Guanlan, tilted her head and blinked, and whispered, "Your Majesty, what are you looking at?"
Xie Guanlan froze instantly, turned his face away stiffly, tilted his head back and poured a large glass of wine between his lips. His mouth was still dry, and it felt like a ball of fire was running rampant inside him.
If the imperial physician had not said that the princess was weak and not suitable for sex, he would have wanted to drag the princess back to the bedroom right now and...
Just thinking about it, Xie Guanlan raised his head in annoyance and took another big gulp of wine.
The seated officials watched their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, not daring to breathe. Occasionally, a few bold ones would ask their women to perform their talents, and Xie Guanlan, who was sitting at the top, would also take a look.
Jia Yueling stared at Yuan Jiang, who was sitting next to Xie Guanlan, with her peripheral vision. She bit her lips with her teeth, clenched her fists, and felt a strong sense of crisis in her heart.
This woman must not be allowed to stay!
She winked at Cui Liu behind her.
Cui Liu stepped forward cautiously, bent down, and whispered in Jia Yueling's ear: "Miss, I have made arrangements. I just need to wait for her to drink the glass of wine. It will only take half an incense stick of time for her to..."
Jia Yueling sneered disdainfully, her arrogant and vicious gaze falling on Yuan Jiang. She watched with her own eyes as a maid brought wine and handed it to Yuan Jiang.
The smile on her lips deepened. Drink it, and you will be the most lewd woman in this palace banquet!
Yuan Jiang stared at the wine in front of him, a sly smile flashed in his fox eyes, but at the same time he felt a little conflicted. How much should he drink?
Her body can't withstand the torture now.
Yuan Jiang frowned, held the wine glass with her slender white fingers, and swirled the wine in the glass leisurely.
This made Jia Yueling very anxious. Her heart was in her throat. She stared at the wine in Yuan Jiang's hand and urged her frantically in her heart, "Drink it quickly! Bitch!"
Beads of sweat rolled down Jia Yueling's forehead.
At this moment, Yuan Jiang took two slow sips. The spicy taste stimulated her taste buds, and she suddenly frowned.
"What's wrong?" Xie Guanlan, who had been keeping an eye on Yuan Jiang, glanced over instantly. Seeing her blushing face and the wine on the chopping board, he immediately understood. He stretched out his long arm and took the wine. "The princess is delicate and frail, and can't drink this strong liquor, but I like it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Guanlan raised his head and drank it in one gulp.
"Don't!" Yuan Jiang was suddenly startled and stretched out his hand to stop him, but he saw Xie Guanlan's Adam's apple rolling up and down, and the wine... was all drunk by Xie Guanlan.
Yuan Jiang:......
Jia Yueling, who witnessed everything, had a pale face. The arrogant look in her eyes turned cold, and her pupils suddenly contracted. Her breathing became disordered and her heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
He clutched his sleeve tightly and closed his eyes in disbelief and collapse.
how so? !
"This wine..." Xie Guanlan keenly tasted that the taste of the wine seemed a little different. His long, dark eyebrows frowned slightly, and he looked at Yuan Jiang thoughtfully.
Could it be because the princess drank it?
This wine is actually a little sweeter.
Yuan Jiang licked her lips and looked at Xie Guanlan nervously: "Your Majesty, this wine is intoxicating, please drink less."
"You still care about me?" Xie Guanlan raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a smile.
Yuan Jiang pursed her lips depressedly, shook her head vigorously, turned her head away from Xie Guanlan, and sighed softly.
It seemed that she was doomed to have no life tonight.
She is such a miserable little fox.
After a while, Yuan Jiang was the first to feel uncomfortable. Her body began to feel hot. Her charming fox eyes were filled with misty watery light, with a faint red at the corners of her eyes. Her whole body felt like ants were biting and crawling slowly. She swallowed and looked at Xie Guanlan eagerly.
"His Majesty......"
