Empress Dowager Empress Dowager

Chapter 32
"Miss, you can't..." Su Yu was in a hurry, and wanted to say something, but Huo Mingzhu raised her hand to stop her, and swallowed the rest of the words without anyone hearing.

"Ninth Prince, you are here, Mingzhu deserves to toast you again." Huo Mingzhu lit the bottom of the glass, poured another glass of wine by herself, and raised her glass again facing Baili Zonglu who was sitting at the table: "Pearl again, you can do whatever you want, my lord."

She drank it down again, her face flushed slightly.

Baili Zonglu originally wanted to make Huo Mingzhu look bad, or ask her to beg him, but who knows that the trouble made him feel a little embarrassed.Huo Mingzhu repeatedly said that it is up to the prince to do whatever he wants. This kind of words made Baili Zonglu feel harsh. He picked up the glass of wine that had been poured for a long time, and tried to smile calmly: "Miss Huo is really a hero among women. , as expected of General Huo's daughter, she is really like a father. Well, this king will do it too!"

After he finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass and lit the bottom of the glass to Huo Mingzhu.

Lin Congyue, Marquis of Pingyang, had been by the side the entire time, and hadn't spoken a moment ago, but now he sighed and said, "Oh, my lord, you are a guest when you come, not to mention that you have such an honorable status, you don't want to drink with a girl, Mingzhu is young, so she doesn't know how to behave , Your Highness, don’t blame me.”

Blaming Huo Mingzhu in the tone of the elders, but making compromises for her in the dark, how could Baili Zonglu fail to understand the meaning of Pingyanghou, his handsome face looked very peaceful, without any killing spirit on the battlefield : "How come? Miss Mingzhu has a real temperament, and this king admires it."

"My minister left for a while, but the little girl disturbed the interest of the prince. It is the minister who has no way to teach the daughter, so please forgive me! Mingzhu, don't apologize to the prince!" Huo Zhengde brought Lin Ruyi to the table at this time. When he came, he dragged Huo Mingzhu into an embarrassing situation without saying a word, and asked her to apologize to Baili Zonglu.

Huo Zhengde has always been so irritable and abided by the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers. Huo Mingzhu didn't understand how he could tolerate his rigidity and selfishness in his previous life. Maybe it was because of ignorance that he had a lot of tolerance.

Huo Mingzhu sneered in her heart, only she knew the grievances between her and Baili Zonglu, and the grievances between her and her father and the entire Huo family were unclear, but her father would be a good person.

"My lord, if Mingzhu offends you, it would be my fault to be a mother if I apologize to you." Lin Ruyi is the general's wife who knows the most general, Huo Zhengde sings bad face, she sings red face.

Bailizong didn't care about it at all, Huo Zhengde and his wife both came to apologize, which made him feel irritable, especially when he glanced at Huo Mingzhu and saw her standing with lowered eyebrows, her face was red, and even more so. It was an indescribable thought.

"General Huo and Mrs. Huo are serious. The king and Miss Mingzhu are friends in need. Today is just a little bit of etiquette in the barracks. There is no need to make a fuss." Baili Zonglu raised his voice, and then glanced at the crowd The guests laughed and said, "Everyone, continue to drink freely, don't worry about me."

Everyone thanked Baili Zonglu in unison, and the banquet returned to its original excitement.Baili Zonglu's eyes were still chasing Huo Mingzhu, seeing Huo Mingzhu leaving the banquet hall, and Su Yu was anxious to catch up, Baili Zonglu felt strange, he couldn't leave the table to ask, so he signaled to the guards beside him He Fang went.

He Fang turned back not long after, and whispered in Baili Zonglu's ear, "Master, that girl Sulu said that Miss Huo can't drink alcohol, and if she drinks a little, she will get rash all over her body. She has already gone to the back garden to rest..."

There was some noise among the guests, but Baili Zonglu heard He Fang's words clearly, and his heart skipped a beat for no reason.
