Lin Wanqing glanced at Su Ruojin, raised her wine glass, walked to Su Ruojin's side, and said with a smile, "Sister, we will part tomorrow. As sisters, we don't know when we will meet again."
Today I am not the Queen of Bei Li, but merely my elder sister's younger sister. The younger sister toasts her elder sister.
After saying that, she downed the wine in her glass. "Sister is pregnant, so a glass of milk is enough. There's no need to force yourself." Her tone suggested that she, the Queen of Beili, was considerate of her servants.
Su Ruojin didn't even stand up. She glanced at Lin Wanqing and said, "Your Majesty, I only have one younger sister named Su Muyao. I dare not try to establish a relationship with Your Majesty. I am feeling unwell, so I will not rise to return Your Majesty's greeting."
Then Su Ruojin picked up the milk on the table, took a small sip, and put the cup down.
Lin Wanqing's smile was somewhat distorted.
According to etiquette, when the Queen offers a toast, even if the other party is the regent's wife of another country, she should at least stand up to greet her, if not bow.
Pregnancy doesn't mean you can't move around.
Su Ruojin wouldn't even get up, clearly showing she wasn't willing to give her any face at all.
Lin Wanqing herself said that she was not the Queen of Bei Li today, so she couldn't use her status to pressure Su Ruojin.
She gripped her wine glass tightly in anger.
She had previously thought that Su Ruojin's temper had improved since she became pregnant; she spoke less and was less sharp-tongued. But it turns out it was all an act!
Now, after just a few words, her true colors have been revealed; it was indeed her misperception.
The person in front of me is still that damned Su Ruojin!
If it weren't for the greater good, why would she have to put herself through such hardship?
Lin Wanqing took a few deep breaths, flicked her sleeves, and returned to her seat.
The mutton was served to Su Ruojin and her group, with the servants presenting them with the most tender cuts of mutton.
Xiao Yanchu glanced at the mutton and smiled slightly, "Your Highness, eating too much at night will cause indigestion, so you shouldn't eat this mutton."
Su Ruojin's eyes flickered, and she nodded. "Your Highness, I'm a little tired. I'll go and rest now."
"Yes, Huanqing and Huanzhi, take good care of the Princess."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Huanqing and Huanzhi came over and helped Su Ruojin back down first.
Watching Su Ruojin leave, Lin Wanqing's lips curled slightly.
Su Ruojin, tonight is your death day.
After Su Ruojin left, Xiao Yanchu picked up a knife and started cutting the mutton.
While Xiao Yanchu was cutting mutton, Wei Xuebin was drinking with military officers, but his eyes were fixed on him without blinking.
Wei Xuebin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Yanchu eat the mutton. He glanced at Lin Wanqing and nodded slightly.
Lin Wanqing saw this, and her smile widened as she faced the military generals who came to toast her.
Because Xiao Yanchu and the others were leaving Mo Han the next day.
The banquet didn't last too long.
When Xiao Yanchu arrived at the tent entrance, he saw Huan Qing rushing out anxiously, looking at Xiao Yanchu as if she had seen a savior.
"It's terrible, Your Highness! The Princess Consort is suddenly experiencing severe abdominal pain and is bleeding heavily. Your Highness, please quickly send the military doctor to examine her."
"What?! Hu Qing, quickly go and call the army doctor." Xiao Yanchu strode into the tent.
Then Huanzhi came out carrying a basin of water, which was completely red.
Su Ruojin lay on the bed, groaning in pain.
"How are you?" Xiao Yanchu walked to the bedside and quickly took Su Ruojin's hand.
"Your Highness, I...I have abdominal pain, please...please save our child." Su Ruojin's face was completely bloodless, and her lips were pale.
At this moment, Hu Qing had already dragged an old military doctor in and rushed in, shouting, "Medical doctor, quick!"
The old military doctor was dragged over by Hu Qing and, without even wiping the sweat from his brow, hurried to the bedside to take Su Ruojin's pulse.
"The Queen has arrived, the Valiant King has arrived, General Wei has arrived," came the announcement from outside the door.
How could they not know about such a major incident involving the Regent's wife? They rushed over immediately to check on the situation.
Because Su Ruojin was a woman, Wei Xuebin and Fei Molong could not enter the tent and could only wait outside.
Lin Wanqing, on the pretext of caring for Su Ruojin, went straight into the tent.
She was filled with excitement the whole way here.
