Chapter 991 Previous Life (5)
“These fireworks are so beautiful.” Shen Miao’s voice was low and drunken. “When can we watch the whole show?”
She suddenly laughed again: "Probably not."
As he was speaking, he heard footsteps coming from behind him, boots stepping on the snow, making a rustling sound.
Bai Lu was startled and said, "You guys..."
Shen Miao turned around and saw someone brushing aside the heavy shadows of the trees and walking forward.
A man dressed as a guard was behind him, and the person standing in front of him was tall, wearing a purple robe and green boots. His long peach blossom eyes reflected the fireworks in the night, which was exceptionally bright and moving, and he looked very beautiful.
“Lord Xie… from the Marquis of Lin’an?” Shen Miao squinted her eyes and looked at him.
The man seemed a little surprised and said, "Tsk!", "Fu Xiuyi's queen turned out to be an alcoholic."
The guard behind him said, "Master, we should leave."
Bai Lu was also a little nervous, wondering why Xie Jingxing was still in the palace. If a queen and a minister were seen standing together, something serious might happen. Especially since Shen Miao had already been struggling in the palace these days, if someone caught her, they would not hesitate to throw dirty water on her. At this moment, it was naturally better to stay as far away from the heir of the Lin'an Marquisate as possible.
Bai Lu didn't dare to disturb others, as the garden was quite secluded, so she whispered, "My Lord, the Empress is a little drunk. I was just about to help her back. Please pretend you didn't see anything."
Xie Jingxing glanced at Shen Miao, laughed, and seemed to be somewhat uninterested, turning around and about to leave.
“Wait!” Shen Miao called out to him.
Bai Lu was startled, anxiously wanting to cover Shen Miao's mouth. Shen Miao, however, stared at Xie Jing Xing. She was a little drunk at the moment. Since leaving for Qin State, she had never drunk alcohol recklessly. However, the saying that a glass of wine can dispel a thousand sorrows was true. When people are drunk, they feel relaxed, relaxed, and they will do many things that they would not do in normal times.
She said, "I heard that you are going to the Northern Frontier?"
Xie Jingxing crossed his arms and asked with a half-smile, "What does the Queen want to ask?"
Tie Yi and Bai Lu both stared at Shen Miao. Shen Miao smiled and took out the bowl she had just drunk from from the table. She poured the wine from the jar into the bowl and gestured to Xie Jingxing to look at it. She said, “A young talent, a figure of the ages, with extraordinary talent and brilliance, there is no one like him in the world!”
Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows, Bai Lu was so embarrassed that she wanted to drag Shen Miao away, how could she praise a flower in front of others like this?
"Northern Frontier is a very bad place." Shen Miao patted his shoulder. She was petite and had to stand on tiptoe when patting people on the shoulder. She looked at Xie Jingxing again and said half seriously and half drunkenly: "I heard from my father that there is no grass growing there, the terrain is treacherous, there are many poisonous snakes and insects, and it is easy to fall into traps. You will be in great danger if you go there."
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your concern." Xie Jingxing said casually.
"A shameless name in the annals of history for a thousand years, I will repay the emperor with all my heart!" She mumbled, raised the wine bowl in her hand to Xie Jingxing, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Bai Lu and Tie Yi were both shocked, the former didn’t expect Shen Miao to drink it as soon as she said so, while the latter was surprised that the Queen could be so generous.
Shen Miao wiped her mouth, burped, and said, "This is a bowl of wine I offer you. You must return victorious!"
Xie Jingxing stared at her. There was still some wine on her lips that hadn't been wiped clean, hanging glisteningly on them. It was very pretty. Under the moonlight, her face showed a delicate beauty that couldn't be seen in the daytime. After shedding the shackles of the queen, she was actually a very delicate and beautiful woman.
