Xiao Tang looked at him dazedly and whispered in defense, "This is fruit wine, and the alcohol content is not high."
Unfortunately, her explanation failed to gain the man's approval.
He snatched the bottle from her and then took a sip himself.
A sweet taste spreads in your mouth.
It suddenly reminded him of Xiao Tang's scent.
He lowered his gaze, his eyes landing on her bewildered little face, before saying in a low, deep voice, "Don't do this kind of thing again."
It's bad for your health.
Although he didn't know anything about this woman's menstruation, he specifically asked Yan Jiu to find a medical book for her.
Xiao Tang looked at him dazedly, especially staring at the wine stains on his lips that he hadn't had time to wipe away.
His eyes brightened considerably.
Xiao Tang immediately stood up, and before he could react, she suddenly stepped onto the chair, kissed his lips, and tasted the wine stains on his lips.
"I won't drink it. I'll drink yours from now on, is that alright?"
When she released him, Xiao Tang still had a smug smile on her face.
Why do I feel like I'm flirting with an innocent married man?
Oh wait, I'm this guy's beautiful and lawfully wedded wife.
Xiao Tang's inner emotions were quite complex, so much so that they were written all over her face.
The man's eyes were already burning like two blazing flames, flickering deep within them.
She even glanced up and inadvertently looked into the depths of his eyes, as if she were being burned by the man.
My heart trembled slightly.
She seemed to sense a wild beast lurking in the man's eyes, ready to pounce and tear him apart at any moment.
She remained remarkably calm, smiling.
"My lord, I promise you. Shall we return to the manor now?"
Her voice was also the kind that was sickeningly sweet.
Di Jingling really wanted to snort: What a troublesome little girl!
Suppressing the urge to bite her, I said, "What's the rush? We're already here, we'll wait until the fireworks start."
Although it can be seen from other places, this is a superb vantage point for viewing.
Xiao Tang was about to ask him when it would start when a loud "bang" suddenly rang out above her head.
Brilliant fireworks burst in the sky.
The fireworks set off by the ancients were not as varied and diverse as those of modern times; they were just fleeting moments of brilliance and splendor.
The radiant light fell upon their faces.
Xiao Tang suddenly felt...
If I could live my whole life like this, working hand in hand with the villain, that wouldn't be bad.
Even if he is just a fictional character in a book.
Xiao Tang was lost in thought when the man beside her slowly took her hand and they intertwined their fingers.
A slight smile played on his lips.
He heard everything.
Is it absolutely certain that his wife won't abandon him?
...
As night fell and the dazzling fireworks faded, the little emperor's expression, as he leaned against the window, gradually shifted from longing to gloom.
His little face had unknowingly turned ashen.
He climbed down from the window and ran to the palace, originally looking for Qin Chuxing.
But on the way, he saw his mother hurrying away.
Di Yanqing quickly hid in the shadows, watching as his mother, surrounded by palace servants, strode anxiously toward Qin Chuxing's palace.
Once the crowd had dispersed, he exclaimed "Eh!" and hurriedly followed.
I couldn't help but wonder to myself: What's going on?
"Why has the Empress Dowager come?" Qin Chuxing was actually surprised to see the Empress Dowager.
He stared at the Empress Dowager, then naturally glanced towards the doorway.
The Empress Dowager then spoke with feigned indifference: "I have promised to help you with this matter, so naturally His Majesty must fulfill this promise."
"The person I desire, Your Majesty should grant me, right?"
Her face shone brightly when she asked the question.
Di Yanqing hid in the corner, straining his ears to listen, wondering what his mother meant.
He had no idea what request the Western Qin Emperor had granted his mother's request...
But to his utter surprise, his mother's words filled him with apprehension.
Who do you need?
Who is it?
Why did he instinctively feel it was a man?
It's not like they're going to find him a little empress to be his child bride!
The more I think about it, the more likely it seems.
Just then, the Emperor of Western Qin smiled and said, "So that's what you came here for. I always keep my word. I have already written to the people over there to send over the male favorite that the Empress Dowager wants."
Snap!
When Di Yanqing heard the words "male concubine," he was greatly shocked.
He was so frightened that he fell to the ground, his face filled with terror.
At this moment, the palace servants also heard the commotion and looked at the emperor who had fallen to the ground.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong? Are you alright?" The nanny was the first to help him up.
Upon hearing that it was her son, the Empress Dowager rushed out.
"Qing'er?"
Di Yanqing was so frightened that he rushed out immediately.
"Qing'er, wait a minute!" The Empress Dowager was eager to explain, but the child rushed out without giving her a chance to explain.
Then, Qin Chuxing slowly said, "I will return to the palace tomorrow, and the person the Empress Dowager wants should be sent over."
tomorrow.
If the princess makes a move against the regent tonight, she will definitely have a chance of winning!
The next day.
Qin Chuxing waited at the city gate, waiting for his men to kidnap the Imperial Advisor.
I thought things would go extremely smoothly...
Unexpectedly, the guard rushed back to report: "My lord, there is no one at the Imperial Preceptor's residence!"
"What?" Qin Chuxing frowned, his face turning extremely cold.
"My lord, something terrible has happened. There's news that..." another guard whispered in his ear, reporting the situation in Western Qin.
Upon hearing that something had happened in Western Qin, Qin Chuxing naturally could no longer linger.
