Chu Xuan retreated imperceptibly, avoiding Yan Xiwan's hand, with a hint of disgust in his eyes.

[This little green tea girl is here to frame me again? Does she really think Chu Xuan is a fool? ]

[Chu Xuan is very smart, how can he trust you?! ]

[After Little Green Tea fell out of favor, why did her IQ also decline? 】

"puff--"

Chu Xuan sensed that he had lost his composure, and quickly coughed lightly, then smiled and said, "Xi Wan, I am not a fool, and I can still distinguish right from wrong. Instead of framing Yan Luo here, it is better to prepare a birthday gift for the Royal Grandmother."

Yan Xiwan curled her lips.

Instead, Lu Yanluo opened her eyes wide, looked at Chu Xuan with a smile, and said jokingly: "I didn't expect that there is someone in the world who shares my thoughts and feelings. Your Majesty, I have not seen you for a few days and I am impressed by you!"

This man was exactly what she thought!

How outrageous!

Chu Xuan smiled and embraced her, saying, "Yanluo, can I call you A'Luo?"

Lu Yanluo was stunned for a moment, and the sweetness just now disappeared, leaving only a roll of eyes.

[My Lord, are you crazy? ]

[If you didn't think the same as me, would I praise you? ]

[Give it some sunshine and it will be bright. Are you Zhu Bajie? ]

Chu Xuanli was almost about to turn red with anxiety when he suddenly heard the eunuch loudly report:

"Your Majesty has arrived—"

The Emperor, Empress and Queen Mother entered the table and took their seats one after another. All the concubines and female relatives from various mansions in the palace arrived, and the banquet officially began.

The palace maids brought the dishes and Lu Yanluo frowned.

Chu Xuan was about to ask in detail when he heard a voice:

【Why is it peanuts...】

[No matter how well I do, I am allergic to peanuts. I have tried it several times before and I get a rash after eating one. It's scary.]

Chu Xuan calmly placed the entire plate of peanuts on Yan Xiwan's small table behind him.

[And this weird Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, I hate it the most woo woo woo QAQ! ]

Chu Xuan sighed and sent the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall to Yan Xiwan.

The food that she didn't like was off the table. Lu Yanluo felt much better. She smiled and fed Chu Xuan a piece of cake. But at this moment, she heard Yan Xiwan pretending to exclaim: "Ah! Thank you, cousin. How did you know that I like to eat these! I am very grateful that you think of me like this!"

Chu Xuan rubbed his eyebrows. He didn’t know what Yan Xiwan liked to eat, it was just that Lu Yanluo didn’t like it.

What's more, he was just about to enjoy a harmonious moment with Lu Yanluo, but was interrupted by Yan Xiwan. The more he thought about it, the angrier he got!

"Yan Xiwan, you..."

Halfway through his words, a majestic voice suddenly came from above his head: "The Night King and his cousin in the mansion are so affectionate. I wonder if you know what the princess next to you likes?"

It was the Queen Mother who spoke.

Now the Queen Mother was sitting at the top, staring at Yan Xiwan and Chu Xuan, her face looking creepy and gloomy, as if she wanted to stab Yan Xiwan a few times with her eyes.

Yan Xiwan, however, stood up gracefully as if she was blind, waved her sleeves in a most ostentatious salute, and couldn't suppress the smile on her face: "Your Majesty, my cousin has always treated me like this. I know that I am unworthy of my cousin's favor, so I can only serve him wholeheartedly day and night."

Her voice was soft, coquettish and flattering, making people unable to help but feel pity for her.

But Chu Xuan just had a cold expression on his face.

Does this stupid woman want to kill him?

The atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became weird. Even the emperor snorted coldly and said indifferently: "Chu Xuan, favoring a concubine and killing a wife is a serious crime. I ask you, is what Yan Xiwan said true?"

"No……"

Chu Xuan had just finished speaking when Yan Xiwan interrupted him.

As if she had received a great favor from heaven, she bowed again and said, "Your Majesty, my cousin has not married me yet, and he treats me like a sister. It should not be considered as favoring a concubine over a wife, but just partiality to me."

Speaking of preference, Yan Xiwan even covered her mouth and chuckled, with a hint of reluctance.

He totally ignored the gloomy faces of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager.

Yan Xiwan didn't think it was wrong at all. Her methods had always been used only in backyard fights. She had never been involved in court affairs or the emperor.

She was so narrow-minded that she thought that by saying this, everyone in the world would know how good Chu Xuan was to her, and the emperor was no exception!

Although he didn't marry her, everyone can see how good he is to her!

If this isn’t favoritism, what is?

Just say it out loud and let the whole world know!

Chu Xuan was speechless for a moment: "..."

【What kind of pig teammate is this? 】

Lu Yanluo frowned slightly and thought it over in her mind.

[Yan Xiwan, there is something wrong with your brain, you need treatment! ]

[Didn’t you see how dark the emperor’s face was? And the emperor obviously wanted to use this incident to suppress Chu Xuan! ]

[The emperor has put a ridiculous crime on Chu Xuan because of you, and you are eager to come out and confirm it. Do you think Chu Xuan didn't die quickly enough? ]
