Chapter 3
I thought that the emperor who was sitting up at this time would say something in order to resolve the embarrassment, but saw that he was drinking quietly with his head down and didn't intend to speak.

Of course, the emperor is not afraid of the two ministers but embarrassing, one is his younger brother who assisted him to ascend to the throne, and the other is the prime minister who he has inexplicably liked and doted on since the first time he saw him, and he doesn't want to let either side get down.So since he can't help, he can only hide, as long as he doesn't touch his bottom line, they can solve everything by themselves.

The surroundings were quiet, Shen Qingnan thought that his words would embarrass him, but he didn't expect to be blocked by him.

Anger accumulated in his chest, and after taking a deep breath to suppress his anger, Shen Qingnan spoke again: "My lord has been fighting abroad for many years and has made great achievements. We ministers should toast you a few cups after finally coming back."

He signaled the sitting ministers to stand up, "Come on, let's toast King Xuan and cleanse him up."

"Yes, yes, it should."

"That's right, it's time to toast."

The ministers agreed and picked up their wine glasses one after another, but after King Xuan also picked up his own wine glass, Shen Qingnan spoke again.

Shaking his head with a look of "how can this be done", he said: "It is said that King Xuan has the ability of Xiang Yu to 'lift the mountains and surpass the world'. Heroes are also good at drinking, so how can King Xuan drink from a small cup? "

"Come here! Bring a pot of daughter red to King Xuan."

After receiving a hint from him, the maid next to King Xuan respectfully brought a jar of daughter red from behind and handed it to King Xuan.

He took it but didn't intend to drink it right away. He pulled the seal of the jar smartly, patted the jar proudly and said to Shen Qingnan treacherously: "Prime Minister, you also said that I have made great achievements in the battles abroad. Since I Shouldn't you, as the head of a hundred officials, give me three cups for my great efforts?"

After finishing speaking, Shen Qingnan trembled slightly.

He has never drank alcohol since he was a child, and after he became the prime minister, he only drank two glasses when the emperor toasted, but now he is asked to drink three glasses in a row....Difficult, very embarrassing.He had never even drank three cups, and he didn't know what he would look like after drinking. He wouldn't be rude in front of the emperor and so many civil and military officials, right?

He looked up at the emperor who was seated above, hoping that he would stand up and speak for him, but he was also looking at her with eyes full, as if he was also curious about how he drank three cups.

Looking around, all the officials were also staring at him. It seemed that he was going to have to drink tonight.

Since she cleared her cough to hide her inner panic, she straightened her back and raised her chin. Shen Qingnan felt guilty and said, "Yes, but please ask Xuan Wang to drink it first, and the prime minister will drink it after Xuan Wang finishes drinking. If Xuan Wang's wine jar is not Seeing the bottom line, the three cups of the Prime Minister will be waived."

Laughing, Xia Hanming looked confident.Facing Shen Qingnan, he raised the wine jar and said loudly, "The king should do it first!" Then he lifted the wine jar above his head with one hand and drank it.

He opened his mouth wide, the wine in the jug poured down like a torrent, most of it was drank by him, and some slipped down his firm chin and sharp side face and wet him The lapel of his clothes dripped to the ground, but his unrestrained and domineering appearance was undoubtedly a martial arts practitioner.

Xia Hanming drank very fast, and drank the whole jar of wine within a quarter of an hour.

"Bang!" The wine jar was placed on the table, he boldly wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said to Shen Qingnan who was a little dazed: "Prime Minister, it's your turn."

he…….

My heart was flustered, and the coldness and arrogance of being a prime minister disappeared instantly at this moment.

Looking at the three glasses of wine that were poured by the maid on the table in front of him, he swallowed nervously and spit, and slowly picked up one of the glasses with his slender woman-like hand trembling slightly.

Drink it, you must do what you say, otherwise what is the prestige of being a prime minister?
So Shen Qingnan drank the first glass of wine violently as soon as she closed her glass.Without giving herself any time to breathe, she poured the second and third cups into her mouth one after another.

The hot feeling flows down the taste buds into the throat, slides down the esophagus, and finally enters the stomach, as if being burned all the way by fire, and the place where it passes is hot and painful, especially when the smell of wine hits the nose, it is almost spicy She shed tears.

But Shen Qingnan didn't know that when he was still getting used to the harshness of the wine, the emperor, other officials and Xia Hanming had already stared at him in a daze.

Because at this moment, Shen Qingnan's palm-sized face was flushed as if she had applied red blush on her cheeks, her slightly drunken eyes were half-closed, and her forehead was sweating slightly due to the smell of alcohol. The way she raised her sleeves to wipe her sweat was not shy but gentle and charming.

If it weren't for the men's clothing he was wearing at the moment and the fact that he had acted resolutely and resolutely in the past five years as the prime minister, everyone here would have thought that their prime minister was actually a delicate and delicate girl.

Knowing that although King Xuan is the leader of the military party, he is not a fearless and reckless man, it is not easy to provoke, and now he is half drunk and unconscious, so after the banquet really started, Shen Qingnan has been reticent and focused on self-protection. Haoxuan Wang didn't take advantage of the danger to attack him, otherwise he would die an ugly death tonight.

At the end of the banquet, Shen Qingnan was almost escorted back by the servants. When she got home, she fell asleep without taking off her clothes.
