After nightfall, the area near the tent was brightly lit, with constant noise and occasional laughter.
On the field, Xie Yunci and the imperial concubine sat at the top, and from the top down were the ministers and their families who were favored by him.
Pei Yu sat below Xie Yunche, Chen Li also sat with him, and the foreign envoys who came to celebrate the birthday sat on the right.
Princess Saihan was also present at the banquet. She looked a little uncomfortable when she glanced at Chen Li opposite her from time to time.
I don't know if she was rushing forward to give herself away because she felt ashamed of what she did after losing, or because she felt she was too stupid.
She looked at Chen Li for a long time, but Chen Li ignored her. Not long after, the foreign envoy said to the emperor at the head of the group, "Your Majesty, we brought some local specialty kumis. Would you like to try it?"
Xie Yunci: "Okay, since you brought kumis, let's take it out and let everyone taste it."
Soon, palace maids carrying kumis came and went among the banquet, and Pei Yu and Shen Li each received a pot.
Xie Yunci poured a cup, and Eunuch Qu beside him came forward to try it before letting him drink it.
He looked at the wine in the glass with interest. It was very fragrant and indeed a good wine. However, why did he take it out earlier but only at this moment? What was his purpose?
Su Rina walked up to Pei Yu and Shen Li with a glass of wine in her hand. "This mare's milk from your ancestor is a specialty of our place. It's cool and sweet. You two can try it."
Chen Li ate the barbecue that Pei Yu had sliced for her. After she finished, she asked, "Why is the princess here?"
The corner of Su Rina's mouth twitched. She had been standing here for a while, and the Princess of Hui'an spoke as if she had just seen her.
"I was in a dense forest. Thanks to the care of the prince and the county lady, Su Rina was able to get out of the forest safely. I came here to express my gratitude."
A playful smile appeared on Chen Li's lips, and she didn't know whether she was talking about protecting her or monitoring her.
Chen Li also poured a glass of wine and stood up. Princess, you are too polite. When an envoy from a foreign vassal comes to our court, we should entertain him well.
After the two of them raised their glasses and drank a glass of wine, Pei Yu pulled Chen Li to sit down. Su Rina asked the maid beside her to pour her a glass of wine, and then looked at Pei Yu again.
"Your Highness, Su Rina offers you a glass of wine."
Pei Yu didn't want to drink, but Chen Li pinched his hand under the cover of her clothes.
Pei Yu had no choice but to pour out the wine in the glass and poured another glass of kumis and drank it all. Only then were Chen Li and Su Rina satisfied.
Seeing him turn and leave, Pei Yu said helplessly, "Ali, if there's any problem with her, just take her down. You're using me as a bait. Do you not love me anymore?"
Chen Li rolled her eyes at him, "What nonsense are you talking about? This is not for your consideration. She is a foreign princess. Even if there is a problem, we can't just arrest her. We need evidence to punish her."
"If word gets out about arbitrarily arresting people without any evidence, will the foreigners dare to come to the court?"
Pei Yu nodded, his voice a little hoarse, "I understand the principle, but, Ah Li, are you responsible for putting out this fire?"
Chen Li looked left and right, but didn't look at him. She didn't refuse this kind of thing, but the problem came.
There are so many people here, and they are all living in tents. It's a bit noisy, but not everyone can hear it. We don't want to do a live broadcast.
Seeing Pei Yu's eyes becoming increasingly deep and fiery, Chen Li was helpless as she was afraid that Su Rina opposite her would see something wrong. She rummaged around, pretending to take out a pill from her sleeve.
He placed it in his palm under the cover of night, so no one could see it. "This is a pill to detoxify. Take it."
Seeing that he was still staring at her with a gloomy look in his eyes without saying a word, he added, "A product produced by a miracle doctor must be of the highest quality."
Pei Yu's eyes were filled with resentment as he took the pill from her hand and said, "A-Li, you have to compensate me after this happens!"
Chen Li nodded, "Okay, okay, take the medicine quickly and then go back to the tent to sleep."
Pei Yu sighed deeply, looked at Chen Li with his sad and resentful eyes, and then swallowed the pill.
Mo Qing was sitting below them, so he could see what was going on clearly and laughed out loud in an unkind way.
"Sir, what are you laughing at?"
Mo Qing reached out and held Wen Lan's head. "You're just a kid, how could you be so curious? Don't look at scenes that are not suitable for children."
Wen Lan: “…”
"Ayu, are you drunk?"
Chen Li supported Pei Yu, seeing that his face was flushed and he was a little dizzy, and said, "Let me help you go back to the tent to rest."
The word "OK" was stuck in his throat and he couldn't say it. After a while, he said:
"No need, you can continue playing here and let Tianqing help me back."
Chen Li immediately raised her hand and called Tian Qing over, "Take your master down to rest. Be sure to take good care of him. Give him a bowl of sobering soup later and let him take a bath before going to bed."
Tianqing nodded in agreement and helped Pei Yu away. He didn't understand why he needed to take a shower when he was already so drunk?
No, it’s crooked.
When did his master become such a poor drinker!
"Master, you..."
Looking at his master lying unconscious on the bed, smelling of alcohol, Tianqing asked tentatively, but was interrupted before he could finish his words.
"Tianqing, do what you should do, but remember not to go too far."
"yes."
Tianqing had a complicated and shocked look on his face after leaving the tent. Miss Shen actually used her master to fish, and the key point was that their master was very happy about it.
He shook his head. He had been single since birth and really couldn't understand this kind of emotion.
Chen Li went to chat with Su Zhihui and Wen Lan. They were talking and laughing, and no one was watching from the table.
When Su Rina saw this scene, her eyes flashed, but no one paid much attention to her. She said something to Princess Saihan beside her and quietly left the table.
There were many people drinking tonight, so the royal chef from the palace cooked a big pot of sobering soup.
Su Rina first asked for a bowl of sobering soup, and walked towards Pei Yu's tent with it. When she reached the dark place, she hid behind a tent, took out a small porcelain bottle, and didn't know what she added into it.
She reached out and picked up the spoon, stirring the hangover soup in the bowl, a smile on her lips, which was very different from her appearance.
King Jingnan, haha!
She approached Pei Yu's tent without any panic on her face. Tianqing had recognized her from a distance. When he approached, he lifted the tent, took a look and left.
Seeing him walking towards her, Su Yuna hid behind the tent and only came out after making sure he had passed by.
I identified his direction and it seemed that he was heading towards the kitchen.
The corners of his mouth curled up. Isn't this God helping me?
I lifted the curtain and walked in. The lights inside were a little dim. After walking around the screen, I could vaguely see a figure on the bed.
"Your Highness, the Princess of Hui'an has sent me to bring you some hangover soup."
