When Qin Yanshu saw Qin Yanning's little movements, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
This little bitch really thinks she is some precious and beautiful person. I don’t know who she is trying to impress with her pretentious tone.
Qin Yanning and Qin Yanshu's eyes met, and both of them understood each other's thoughts. Qin Yanning leaned against Tuoba Ling and chuckled.
Tuoba Ling's eyes held an unwavering tenderness. "What are you thinking about? Why are you smiling so happily?"
Qin Yanning stopped looking at Qin Yanshu, took the fruit from Tuoba Ling, and whispered, "I'm thinking about how to entertain my good sister."
Seeing Qin Yanning sitting on a high seat, looking as if he didn't take her seriously at all, Qin Yanshu couldn't help but clench her fists until her fingertips pricked her palms, and her consciousness gradually returned.
Qin Chuan nudged Qin Yanshu's arm in dissatisfaction, and Qin Yanshu belatedly saluted Tuoba Ling and Qin Yanning.
When Qin Chuan saw Qin Yanshu's almost rude behavior, his brows furrowed so much that they could kill a fly.
Tuoba Ling naturally noticed the little movements of the two people, but he did not make things difficult for them. Instead, he waved his hand and motioned them to sit down.
As soon as Qin Chuan and Qin Yanshu sat down, the palace servants waiting outside the hall brought in various dishes.
Qin Yanning straightened his expression and announced the official start of the banquet.
The people of the desert have always been generous and unrestrained. After three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere in the hall became lively. Many ministers took the initiative to toast Tuoba Ling and Qin Yanning. Tuoba Ling has always been a big drinker and never refused anyone.
Qin Yanning did not drink the fruit wine presented by the palace servants, but chose tea instead.
The ministers of the Great Desert naturally wouldn't embarrass Qin Yanning over such trivial matters, but Qin Yanshu seemed to have seized an opportunity. She raised her wine glass and said aloud, "This princess and my brother have just arrived in the Great Desert. We feel that the desert is blessed with outstanding people and beautiful scenery. This must be the credit of the Khan and the Queen. This princess offers a toast to you two."
Qin Yanshu is the princess of Dazhang after all, and when she speaks in high-sounding words, you can't tell that she is a fool.
Seeing Qin Yanshu taking the initiative, Tuoba Ling also raised the wine glass in his hand.
Qin Yanshu's eyes fell on the hot tea in Qin Yanning's cup. She smiled and said, "I've heard that the Great Desert is always generous. If the Queen replaces wine with tea, wouldn't that be embarrassing for the Khan?"
Qin Yanning couldn't help but roll his eyes. Since when did a man's face have to be maintained by his wife's drinking?
However, she understood why Qin Yanshu brought up the fact that she didn't drink. The original owner had lived in the cold palace with Concubine Lin when she was a child.
The maids and eunuchs in the palace have always been good at flattering the weak and putting down the powerful. The meals in the cold palace have always been leftovers. Over time, the original owner became malnourished and had a weak physical condition. She was allergic to many things.
One year at a banquet in Dazhang Palace, the original owner drank a cup of rice wine given by the old emperor, and made a fool of herself in front of everyone. Red rashes instantly covered her neck and cheeks.
Qin Yanning remembered the look on Qin Yanshu's face when she looked at her as if she were a monster, and she also remembered the smile in her eyes.
Now Qin Yanshu used such a lame excuse to provoke her, just to make Qin Yanning look bad in front of everyone again.
Tuoba Tingting heard Qin Yanshu say this, and his expression finally changed. Seeing that he looked unhappy, Qin Yanning said, "I haven't been feeling well lately, so it's better not to drink."
Qin Yanshu became even more aggressive upon hearing this. She snorted coldly, "Is the Queen Consort feeling unwell, or is she afraid of scaring others?"
