Chapter 35

A figure in a moon-white robe came leisurely from around the corner.

Yue Jing flickered out of the corner of her eye, and said to the livid and ugly Yue Lin, "Second Brother, today is New Year's Eve, so keep your word."

Yue Lin gave him a cold look: "Yue Jing, you are really hypocritical, don't you find it disgusting?"

He is obviously a prince, but he looks like an actor.

Also too good at acting.

Yue Jing's hand holding the wine glass paused slightly, her eyes were downcast, no one knew what he was thinking.

"The moon is coming!"

Yue Jue's low and angry voice came.

The courtier looked slightly stunned, and hurriedly stood up and saluted: "His Royal Highness is a thousand years old."

Yan Qi sat without moving, secretly eating the rose cakes on the table.

Jiang Qi didn't move, just glanced at the almond cake on the table.

Yue Huan didn't move a single piece.

"Brother Huang, what advice do you have?" Yue Lin was arrogant and dissolute, not caring about Yue Jue's anger.

Yue Jue squinted at Yue Jing, who had an unattractive look in her eyes, and then looked at Yue Lin who was idling:
"Father punished you to ground your feet and reflect on yourself. Since today is the New Year's Eve, I am pardoning you for attending the dinner party. Unexpectedly, you will not know how to repent!"

"After today, stop and reflect for half a month."

Yue Lin's face suddenly became ugly, in front of so many princes and ministers, Yue Jue exposed him in public!

Yue Lin refused to accept it, and glared at Yue Jue angrily: "Why! If you say punishment, you will be punished?"

"You haven't ascended the throne yet, who do you think you are!"

The expressions of all the people present all changed, and they lowered their heads hastily, wishing they could find a hole in the ground and get in.

If this word reaches His Majesty, it may cause a bloody mess.

The second prince's words are too presumptuous!
Yue Jue's complexion darkened, and when Yue Lin was about to say something while staring coldly at Yue Lin, a deep and majestic voice came:

"Just because he is the prince and your brother! He has the right to punish you!"

Emperor Ming, dressed in a moon-white dragon robe, was not angry and majestic, staring at Yue Lin darkly, with overwhelming disappointment in his eyes.

Yiqing's resonant voice followed closely: "The emperor is here! The empress is here!"

All the courtiers looked terrified, hurriedly walked to the open space in the middle and knelt down to salute:

"Long live the emperor, long live!"

"The empress is a thousand years old!"

Everyone wanted to put their heads on the floor, this scene was too much for Shura.

Is it okay for the prince to speak rudely and be caught by the emperor on the spot?
Yue Lin's mental activity was not much worse than that of the courtiers, his shirt was already soaked in sweat in the harsh winter.

Yan Qi didn't kneel, but stood up and saluted.

Jiang Qi also just stood and bowed.

The two of them are quite out of the ordinary and out of place.

Emperor Ming paced and sat on the dragon chair, his dark eyes paused for a few seconds on Yue Huan, and then glanced at the lonely and cold Jiang Qi beside her.

Looking at Jiang Qi like this, he was even more disappointed with Yue Lin.

Emperor Ming looked at the darkness below, and said in a deep voice, "Your highnesses are flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

There was a crowd of princes and ministers, and they all returned to their seats and sat upright without looking sideways.

This weird atmosphere is not a New Year's banquet, it's better to have a simple meal at home.

It's really like accompanying a king like a tiger. Many people secretly wiped the sweat from their foreheads.

"Yue Lin." Emperor Ming's light words made Yue Lin's back go stiff.

"My son is here."

Yue Lin lowered his head and bowed, looking very respectful.

Murong Ling glanced at Yue Lin as if there was nothing there, and there was a trace of disgust in his eyes.

If it wasn't for Gu Nian, who is of Emperor Ming's bloodline, how could she have let him live until now, making things difficult for Huan'er!

"Today is the New Year's Eve feast, you should do as the prince said for your mistakes."

Emperor Ming's voice was a little weak, showing a bit of fatigue.

"My son...obey the order!"

The anger in Yue Lin's eyes, with his head down, seemed to have substance, and he glanced at Yue Huan who was secretly eating plum cakes.

Seeing her so comfortable, I wish I could condense into a knife and cut her alive.

If it wasn't for her, how could he have offended his father!
Jiang Qi, who was sitting by the side, raised his eyes to look at him as if feeling something, seeing the hatred in his eyes, the light flickered slightly.

Emperor Ming didn't bother to look at him, and said in a low voice, "Let's start the banquet."

Standing beside Emperor Ming, Yiqing understood, and declared loudly: "Have a banquet!"

Hearing the opening of the banquet, the happiest person was Yan Qi.

If there is no banquet, she will almost be full from pastries.

The melodious sound of silk and bamboo was heard, and a group of maids in pink dresses and Anaduzi danced in the center of the hall.

Yan Qi only glanced at it, and turned his attention back to the food in front of him.

Yan Qi was almost dazzled by the dazzling array of dishes.

I don't even know what to eat.

Before she could swallow the lamb in her mouth, she heard Yue Jue's congratulations:

"I wish my father and mother a happy Chinese New Year, and wish the Yue family a prosperous country and a peaceful and prosperous future!"

As the crown prince, Yue Jue would naturally bear the brunt of the New Year's congratulations.

It's the same as kowtowing to the elders in the family to pay New Year's greetings during the New Year, from big to small.

After Yue Jue was Yue Lin who had just been punished, and then Yue Jing.

Then there is the youngest princess, Yue Huan.

When it was Yan Qi's turn, she was still eye-to-eye with the rabbit's head, thinking how she could take it down gracefully without losing the princess.

Jiang Qi drank his own wine without any concern, and didn't intend to remind Yue Huan.

"cough!"

Yue Jue smiled when she saw Yue Huan's cute appearance, and coughed lightly to remind her.

Ok?
Hearing the sound, Yan Qi raised his head to look at Yue Jue in a daze, and when he saw him winking, he suddenly realized that everyone's eyes were on her.

What's wrong with this?

Yan Qi was dumbfounded.

Could it be that her ability to eat meat has been exposed?
Seeing that she still didn't react, Yue Jue knew that she wasn't listening at all just now.

Special mouth shape to remind Yue Huan: Congratulations.

Seeing this, Yan Qi breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that the secret would not be hidden anymore.

"I wish the emperor and the queen mother a happy new year and all the best, and pray that the mountains and rivers of the Yue family will be safe and the rivers will be clean and the sea will be clean!"

Sitting on the dragon chair, Emperor Ming and the Empress smiled slightly, looking at the healthy and alert Yue Huan with joy in their eyes.

Emperor Ming repeatedly said hello: "Okay, okay, the mountains and rivers are safe, the rivers are clean and the sea is clean!"

Are the mountains and rivers safe?

Jiang Qi glanced at Yue Huan coldly, and then at the overjoyed Emperor Ming mockingly.

The coldness in his eyes grew even stronger.

Emperor Ming looked at the obedient and pleasant Yue Huan:
"Then I wish my Princess Yuehuan safe and happy, and always healthy!"

Princess Yuehuan is the only one with such preferences.

Seeing this, all the ministers bowed and saluted: "I wish Princess Yuehuan peace and joy, and good health every year!"

Yan Qi: ...

Are these ministers repeaters?
Hearing the congratulations, Yue Lin gritted her teeth with hatred, and gloomily poured a glass of wine and drank it in a muffled voice.

He just taunted Yue Huan, and all the courtiers saw it, but now Emperor Ming's favoritism made his face ache.

A sick child, what on earth is it? !

The congratulatory speeches were much the same, and the courtiers took turns to congratulate.

After a few rounds, Yan Qi had almost finished eating.

The performance in the middle of the hall was still going on, but Yan Qi was getting tired of watching it.

From the corner of the eye, Jiang Qicai didn't eat much, but he drank a lot of wine.

"Does it taste good?"

Yan Qi tilted his head slightly and asked him, subconsciously licking his lips.

"Ok?"

Jiang Qi stared at Yue Huan's eyes that were staring at his lips, with a hint of doubt in his throat.

The sparkle in her eyes deprived him of all his attention.

"Is the wine in your hand delicious?"

Seeing that he didn't seem to hear clearly, Yan Qi stared at the cup in his hand salivatingly and repeated.

She used to like to have a few drinks by herself, all of which were low alcohol.

Just a little drunk.

I won't be able to drink it when I come here, Yue Huan's body doesn't allow it.

"It's okay." Jiang Qi casually shook the wine glass in his hand, pretending not to see the longing in her eyes.

"No way, it smells like osmanthus. Is it osmanthus wine?"

Yan Qi smelled the rich fragrance. With such quality, how could it be just okay to drink?

"It's indeed sweet-scented osmanthus wine." Jiang Qi could smell it when he looked at Yue Huan's burning eyes.

He remembered that Yue Huan never knew what wine was like.

It can be described as teetotalling.

Yan Qi glanced at Emperor Ming and Empress who were still dealing with the courtiers like a thief, and Yue Jue didn't notice her side either.

She quietly moved the cup in her hand to Jiang Qi's hand, and ordered the wine cup in his hand.

"Want to drink?"

Jiang Qi didn't miss Yue Huan's small movements, the hand holding the wine cup didn't move, and the other hand could shake the wine glass in his hand vigorously, exhaling the mellow fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus wine.

Yan Qi's eyes were burning: "Think."

"give it to me."

Who can resist the taste of sweet-scented osmanthus wine.

Ignoring Yue Huan's burning eyes, Jiang Qi put the wine cup further away, and said softly, "Don't hurt me."

Yan Qi was slightly startled, and curled his mouth.

She naturally understood what Jiang Qi meant.

I also know that wine is taboo for Yue Huan, but a sip will be fine, right?
Naturally, the small gestures of intimacy between the two did not escape the eyes of Emperor Ming.

He suddenly thought of what Yue Huan had just said, she said - Xinyue Jiang Qi.

Emperor Ming narrowed his deep eyes slightly.

Is Yue Huan happy with Jiang Qi, or does Jiang Qi want to use it?
