Chapter 24 The Princess and the Emperor



He almost fled from her palace.

I dare not look back. If I get involved with someone like him, I will be in trouble.

Now that Concubine Nuan said she wanted to be his relative, he had to personally stop this thought. She was so lively, what if she was killed by him?

Therefore, the only compromise he could think of was to demote her first, and then promote her back to a higher position after she became disappointed with him.

A lonely man like him doesn't need children, let alone family.

Tang Wan put on her clothes silently. Xiaobai meowed angrily, "Host, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have chosen this father... Ugh, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have chosen this capture target. He's really annoying."

Was Tang Wan's drooping eyelashes annoying? Actually, not necessarily.

She saw Shen Xiaohan's experience in the dream and knew that he was tough on the outside but soft on the inside. He was just afraid. No one could bear the death of their loved ones one by one.

Xiaobai was wholeheartedly on her side. Even though she explained, Xiaobai was still furious: "Bah, scumbag!"

If it could change the target, it would definitely ask the Lord God to replace the gourd with the sawed-off mouth.

That mouth looks like it was sewn shut with needles. What good would an explanation do?

Tang Wan patted its round little head and said, "Good boy, good boy, let's not argue with him. It's just right that he's not here. We can gather around the stove and cook some wine."

Xiaobai's eyes lit up: "Can I really drink?"

Tang Wan thought about it for a while, and finally shook her head: "I don't know if Kitty can drink, but I can grill some fish for you."

"Host baby, you are the best baby in the world!"

Tang Wan was not affected. In the afternoon, she asked Hongyue to bring a stove and warm a pot of wine on it.

Although she didn't completely refrain from drinking in her previous life, she didn't drink much either, just a small sip at most.

But just because she doesn't drink much doesn't mean she doesn't like it.

It’s just that her monthly allowance in her previous life was too little, not enough for her to buy wine.

Now it’s much better. I can stay at home, not be disturbed by anyone, and drink to my heart’s content.

Hongyue looked at her and seemed to be fine, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Handed her a plate of pastries.

Tang Wan pinched a piece for Xiaobai, who held it with his two furry paws and began to eat it in small bites.

Hongyue was afraid that she would bottle up her worries and harm her health, so she looked at Xiaobai and said a few playful words: "My queen, this kitten is quite interesting. It's just like a human, and it knows how to lick its food in small bites so it doesn't choke."

Tang Wan smiled faintly: "Xiaobai has always been very smart and well-behaved."

She smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Hongyue looked even more worried. She looked at Tang Wan and advised earnestly, "My Lady, if you feel bad, just cry it out. Don't hold it in and hurt yourself. You'll only end up hurting yourself."

Tang Wan raised her chin and smiled, but tears seemed to flash in her eyes, and her voice was choked with sobs: "Hongyue, when people are too sad, they can't cry."

Her eyes were slightly red, her skin was white and transparent, and her lips were almost bloodless. She looked like a piece of jade that was about to break, which made Hongyue's heart break.

For the first time, she ignored the etiquette between master and servant and stepped forward to hug her: "My Lady, I am yours. You don't have to be so strong in front of me."

Hongyue felt a lump in her nose.

Her princess was so kind and never criticized her. Instead, she was very good to her and treated others gently and kindly. She had done nothing wrong, but she got such consequences.

Tang Wan was hugged by her and was a little confused for a moment.

Hongyue has grown taller these days because she has been eating well. She is taller than the average boy of her age. She is also used to doing rough work, so her shoulders are broader than those of an average woman.

Tang Wan leaned in her arms, feeling a little bitter.

Instead of playing along with her, her tears flowed down like glass beads.

That face as white as jade was now stained with a hint of excitement, like a cold lotus stained with color, which made people feel pity.

Breathtakingly beautiful.

She got up from Hongyue's arms only after the people on the beam left. Seeing that her clothes on her chest were wet, she felt a little ashamed. She had taken advantage of Hongyue.

"Excuse me, Ayue, please go change your clothes."

Hongyue waved her hand nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's warm in Her Majesty's palace, this little bit of water will dry up soon."

Hongyue lowered her eyes. She knew that walls had ears. She was not a fool. Since her princess wanted to act out this drama, she would just play along with her.

Her life belongs to the princess. Not to mention being exploited, what would it matter even if she died for her?

Tang Wan burst into laughter and took her hand: "Then sit down and have a drink with me."

Hongyue sat down obediently on the ground.

Tang Wan also sat on the ground.

Hongyue was about to stop her, but was stopped by her words: "Didn't you say that it's warm in the hall? If you can sit, why can't I? Are you deceiving me?"

"I dare not."

Tang Wan pinched her still chubby face and smiled, "Why are you afraid? Our Hongyue is very brave now and has many ideas. She has grown up."

Hongyue looked at her face so close to her, and her ears couldn't help but turn red. She lowered her eyes, hiding her emotions: "After all, I have to serve the Empress, how can I not be smart?"

Tang Wan didn't continue teasing her, and just poured her a glass of wine: "Well, it's not a good wine, not as good as the one I brew, so just drink it."

Hongyue took the cup, picked it up, closed her eyes and drank it in one gulp.

The wine was very spicy, and she refused to say a word even though her face turned red.

Tang Wan was startled and quickly reached out to help her calm down: "Oh, you haven't added the candied fruit yet. This wine is very spicy and needs to be balanced with something sweet. I didn't even have time to tell you, and you drank it in one gulp?"

Hongyue swallowed it, her eyes sparkling: "It tastes good!!"

Her face was red, as if it had been smoked by charcoal fire, and her whole face was red and hot.

She poured herself another cup and gulped it down: "It's delicious!!! Princess, drink it!!"

Tang Wan held her forehead with her hand. It was over. Judging from her appearance, she couldn't handle the alcohol at all.

It's not just that he can't drink much, he gets drunk at the drop of a hat.

Why would she drink with a drunkard?

She could only ask someone to help Hongyue out while she drank alone.

Hongyue arrived at her room, and her blurred eyes immediately cleared up.

She can drink, but there is a limit. She won't act crazy when drunk, but she will tell the truth and say everything. She doesn't dare to linger for too long.

The wine burned her throat and into her stomach, but she liked the taste.

It's not because it tastes so good, but because she likes it.
