Chapter 94 Drunkenness
The empress sat in a high position, with a smile still on her lips, but her eyes were as cold as ice, and everyone lowered their heads, shrinking like quails, not daring to breathe.

Pei Xiu, as if she couldn't feel the cold atmosphere in the hall, was still enjoying the singing and dancing with great interest, her slender, fair, bony fingers tapped on the table with the rhythm.

Now, everyone could see that Pei Xiang was deliberately insulting Her Majesty the Empress, but no one dared to say a word.

Shen Wenqing's eyes flickered, she poured a full glass of wine, raised her glass high, and said loudly to Feng Jin, "Wenqing is bold, I would like to present a glass to Your Majesty. Every year, the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe!"

Wuming took a step forward, held his wine glass high, and said loudly, "May Your Majesty be safe and blessed every year, and may the country and people be safe every year!"

Master Qi also toasted and stood up, and then Song Ming also stood up, led by two first-rank ministers, and other officials stood up one by one, and half of the officials who stood up at last, both the neutral faction and the empress faction stood up. When I got up, the rest were all from the Pei Party, and even those with lower ranks in the Pei Party hesitated to stand up, but they were glared at by Li Yi, Minister of the Ministry of War, and retreated again. go back.

A smile like a spring breeze bloomed on Feng Jin's lips, and he took a deep look at Lord Qi. After receiving her wink, Lord Qi immediately said, "I would like to take this wine to wish Your Majesty and Da Zhou a happy New Year! May you be safe and blessed every year, and may the country and the people be safe every year!"

The others also said in unison, "May Your Majesty be safe and blessed every year, and may the country and the people be safe every year!"

Feng Jin stood up gracefully, raised her wine glass high, and said loudly, "I would also like to use this wine, I wish you all dear friends great blessings, and your family is safe and healthy, I wish my Great Zhou a prosperous country and a peaceful people, a prosperous country and a strong people, and I wish every citizen of Great Zhou Live and work in peace and contentment, and have enough food and clothing.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The officials drank all the wine in their glasses, but Feng Jin just ignored Pei Xiu, pretending that he didn't exist, and drank with a smile.

Pei Xiu's face was terribly livid, he thought that he was standing still and deliberately slapped the Queen's face, and the Queen would lose face, but he didn't expect that the Queen would simply treat him as if he didn't exist, and Shen Wenqing and Master Qi were even more hateful. He deliberately bypassed him and took the lead in toasting the queen.

Until the end of the palace banquet, Feng Jin ignored Pei Xiu, ignored him, and ignored Pei Xiu's party.

Of course, the lower officials of the Pei Party couldn't take it anymore and came forward to toast Feng Jin, Feng Jin also drank it with a smile, giving them enough face.

Although these officials belonged to the Pei Party, they did not dare to show face to Her Majesty the Queen on such an important occasion as a palace banquet.

At the end of the palace banquet, the officials left one by one with their family members. Pei Xiu walked in the front and left without even saying goodbye. Qi Che was the last, ignoring Lord Qi's constantly hinting eyes, just dawdling and refusing to leave .

"Do you have something to tell me?"

Feng Jin smiled slightly and said, she drank a lot of wine tonight, her cheeks were flushed, as if dyed with a thin layer of clouds, she was very charming, and her pair of watery eyes were dyed with a faint layer of misty color, which made her look even more charming. There are all kinds of styles, enchanting and moving, just looking at you like that, it can make people's hearts drunk.

"Your Majesty didn't throw me into the barracks because of Tang Qinghe, did you?"

Feng Jin shook her head, "No."

A gleam of joy appeared on Qi Che's handsome face, and he glanced at Feng Jin evasively, "Then, is Your Majesty doing it for me?"

"Of course, for you and Qi—"

Before the word Qi family could be said, Qi Che hurriedly interrupted Feng Jin, "I understand His Majesty's wishes, and I will do my best to serve His Majesty!"

Feng Jin always felt that there was something wrong with these words, but after drinking a lot of wine, she was a little dizzy and couldn't figure out what was wrong, so she gave a light 'oh' and looked at Qi Che with a smile.

Qi Che's face was slightly red, he didn't know whether it was because of drinking or the reflection of the lights, he gave Feng Jin a burning look, turned around and left quickly.

Feng Jin looked at Master Qi in surprise, Master Qi sighed secretly in his heart, bid farewell to Feng Jin and left.

The Chonghua Palace was empty, the cups and plates were messed up, drunk, Feng Jin felt a little dizzy, and slowly stood up, Wuming hurried over to help her, Feng Jin smiled at him, "I'm fine, I'm not drunk yet."

"Your Majesty is not good at drinking, so don't drink so much."

Wuming's tone was a little displeased, Feng Jin looked at him with a smile, "Are you angry?"

Just as Wuming was about to answer, a dark blue figure walked in.

Feng Jin glanced at the person who came, with a puzzled expression on his face, "Pei Qing hasn't left yet?"

"I have some matters, I want to discuss with His Majesty."

Feng Jin rubbed his aching temples, and said calmly, "Can't it be changed?"

"cannot!"

Feng Jin felt a little helpless, and sighed faintly, "Then tell me."

Pei Xiu glanced at Shen Wenqing at the side, and at Wuming who was supporting Feng Jin, "This is an important confidential matter, Your Majesty, please send the others away!"

"The two of them are the people I can trust the most, and they can listen to anything."

"Your Majesty can trust them, but this humble minister cannot."

"Since Pei Qing doesn't want to talk about it, that's all."

Feng Jin said impatiently, and was about to leave while holding Wuming's hand, Pei Xiu said coldly behind her, "Does Your Majesty not want to hear about the Tiger Talisman?"

Feng Jin paused, turned around slowly, and stared straight at Pei Xiu with half-drunk eyes. Because of the drunkenness, these eyes faded from the deep and coldness of the past. The eyes were full of water, drunk and blurred, as if they had hooks Tickling people's hearts, very charming, the same pair of eyes suddenly flashed in Pei Xiu's mind, the same misty charm, misty, but the difference was that those eyes were innocent and charming, carefree Carefree.

Pei Xiu was very sure that he had never seen such a pair of eyes, why did they appear in his mind?
Feng Jin stared straight at him, "You mean the Tiger Talisman? Do you have news about the Tiger Talisman?"

"Yes!"

Pei Xiu's deep eyes glanced at Wuming and Shen Wenqing, "It depends on whether His Majesty wants to hear it or not!"

Feng Jin curled her lips into a smile, "You are fooling me! If you had news of the Tiger Talisman, you would have searched for it a long time ago, and you would have come to tell me? You are the person in the world who does not want me to get the Tiger Talisman!"

"Because I'm not sure whether the news is true or not, I want to ask His Majesty to confirm it. If the news is true, I will go to the Tiger Talisman, and I will definitely not give the Tiger Talisment to Your Majesty."

Pei Xiu said lightly, with a calm tone.

Feng Jin pondered for a moment, then glanced at Wuming and Shen Wenqing, "You guys step back first!"

Wuming and Shen Wenqing looked at each other, Wuming frowned and said, "Your Majesty, you must protect Your Majesty, and you must not leave Your Majesty for half a step!"

With outsiders around, Wuming still called Feng Jin His Majesty.

"Back off! I can protect myself!"

Wuming's thick eyebrows were tightened, Feng Jin took a deep look at him, Wuming sighed, turned and left, and before leaving, he said, "Your Majesty is outside, if your Majesty has something to do, feel free to call me."

"Don't worry, the truth will not do anything to His Majesty."

Wuming gave Pei Xiu a cold look, his expression full of suspicion.

After Wuming and Shen Wenqing both retreated, Feng Jin frowned slightly, "You can say it now!"

"Weichen recently received news that the Tiger Talisman is still in the palace!"

"In the palace?"

"Yes! I would like to ask Your Majesty to recall carefully, from the first emperor's illness to his death, did he tell His Majesty about the Tiger Talisman, or hint at anything?"

In the memory that Feng Jin left to Feng Jin, the memory about the late emperor is empty, not to mention the tiger talisman, even the memory of the late emperor's death is empty. It is really strange to say that Feng Jin doesn't care about her biological mother. , I don't even care about the death of my biological father, what is the reason?
Feng Jin shook her head, "No!"

Pei Xiu frowned, "Your Majesty, if you think about it carefully, I have searched for so many years, and I also think that the tiger amulet must still be in the palace! When the late emperor passed away, I lived outside the palace, and I didn't even see the late emperor. I don't know what he said, His Majesty served the late Emperor with the Queen Mother every day, maybe the late Emperor said something unintentionally."

Feng Jin couldn't tell Pei Xiu that she had no memory of the late emperor at all, so she could only pretend to think about it.

Thinking about it, she felt drunk, the wine she drank tonight was Lihuabai, it was sweet and refreshing, but the biggest characteristic of Lihuabai is its strong stamina, Feng Jin gradually felt very dizzy.

In order to stay awake, she shook her head vigorously, but her dizziness became worse and her vision became more and more blurred.

"Has Your Majesty thought about it?"

Feng Jin didn't answer, Pei Xiu walked towards her in surprise, but saw the empress' body limply fell down.
