Empress, don't make trouble, I'm really a gentleman

At the birthday banquet, after the Queen Mother left, the ministers communicated again.

The atmosphere slowly recovered.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Nangong Jing felt a little lost, and didn't know what to say.

She could only comfort herself, fortunately, Wang Yong and Li Zhonglian treated her fairly well.

It would be bad if Xiao Yong and I were in the same position.

she thought with mixed emotions.

In a daze, Nangong Jing suddenly felt a light pat on his shoulder.

She thought it was the little girl Jing'er who was messing around again, so she purposely raised her head with a straight face, but unexpectedly, it was Ji Wuchen's face that caught her eyes.

"Ji...Ji Wuchen?"

The Empress was taken aback.

Why did Ji Wuchen come over and pat her on the shoulder?

Pat on the shoulder openly... This person really doesn't take her status as emperor seriously.

Nangong Jing immediately thought of this, and was a little angry.

Ji Wuchen felt a little apologetic.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I just can't understand the Empress Dowager targeting me, and she didn't intend to offend the royal family."

He was actually apologizing and came here to explain?

Nangong Jing was deeply surprised.

Jing'er also opened her eyes wide, feeling...feeling that brother Wuchen is so caring.

Thinking about it, the little maid blushed.

She quickly lowered her head so that he would not see her shy look.

Nangong Jing smiled slightly, a little lonely.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, everyone knows what the royal family looks like now."

Ji Wuchen sighed lightly.

"Your Majesty, I will help you."

He smiled again, turned and returned to his seat.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have touched His Majesty the Empress with sweet words, and you will be rewarded with 20 integrity points, currently 300 integrity points."

Before she could sit down, Xiaomeng's crisp and soft voice sounded.

Ji Wuchen was in a daze.

It's been a long time since he gained integrity points, and he almost forgot that he was originally a gentleman.

But what does this rhetoric mean?
Not far away, Nangong Jing's eyes came over vaguely, and Ji Wuchen smiled back.

At this time, Empress Dowager Xiao Yong also returned to the banquet.

She walked calmly with a calm demeanor, as if nothing had happened before.

Ji Wuchen had a keen sense, staring at Xiao Yong, he felt that there seemed to be something different about the Queen Mother in just a quarter of an hour.

He couldn't say it was different there, but it felt like it was.

"My dear friends, you have been waiting for a long time."

The queen mother sat back in her seat and said coldly to the officials.

The originally warm atmosphere quickly cooled down. The ministers stopped communicating and returned to the state of wide-eyed and small-eyed.

They talked when the queen mother left, and kept silent when the queen mother came.

If it was the real Xiao Yong, he would be extremely annoyed and even leave the meeting angrily again.

However, the person wearing the empress dowager's skin is Nangong Qing.

She didn't show any displeasure, her expression was calm, with a faint arrogance and aloofness that went deep into the bone marrow.

People in the Xianmen think they are superior and regard the people of the Celestial Dynasty as ordinary people, as animals and livestock, so naturally they will not be easily angered by them.

Nangongqing's performance made many people look strange and felt that something was wrong.

Li Zhonglian raised his glass slightly, he looked at the Queen Mother in surprise, pondered for a moment, then quickly smiled, continued to pick up the wine glass, and poured a sip of fine wine into his mouth.

When Li Zhonglian cast his gaze, Nangongqing was startled, feeling that his whole body was being seen through, and he felt an inexplicable sense of panic.

Fortunately, Li Zhonglian didn't say anything, didn't do anything, just drowsy, drinking and having fun on her own.

Nangong Qing regained his mind, and calmly said to the others: "Ai Jia just thought about it for a long time, and realized that he was indeed wrong."

She sighed, her voice flat, but it surprised everyone.

How is this going?Queen Mother, that stupid vicious woman realized her mistake?
This is almost impossible!
Nan Gongqing continued: "The Ai family has lived in the North Palace for a long time. They have not cared about world affairs for many years. They do not understand the external situation, and their personality has become a little irritable and irritable... Sigh, it is all my fault. Everyone, I have offended you before. , Haihan please."

The officials looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering what medicine the Queen Mother had taken wrongly.

However, what she said was not ugly.

Even Nangong Jing's expression softened.

This "aunt" finally did not continue to lose face.

In fact, Nangong Qing was sneering in his heart.

Ordinary people are ordinary people after all, and with just a few words, he resolved the hostility that Xiao Yong had built up before.

How silly and naive.

On the surface, Nangong Qing was still calm and slightly regretful.

It seemed that she was a person who was regretting her mistakes.

"Especially Ji Wuchen, General Tiance, Aijia sincerely apologizes to you. I admit that I was targeting you before, but now I know that I was wrong."

She looked at Ji Wuchen sincerely.

"The pillar of the country like the general cannot be slandered. I apologize to you and hope to be forgiven."

Ji Wuchen felt uncomfortable for a while, feeling baffled.

However, as the saying goes, if you reach out and don't hit someone with a smiling face, since the queen mother is so polite, he is too embarrassed to continue to confront her.

"You are being polite, Queen Mother. In fact, I am also at fault."

Ji Wuchen also said sincerely.

It is better to have one more friend than one more enemy, even if the Queen Mother is not a good thing, but with Nangong Jing's relationship, no matter how arrogant and domineering Ji Wuchen is, it is not good to continue to fight with her.

Well, she is also a mother-in-law in name anyway.

The Queen Mother laughed.

"General Tiance's broad mind made Aijia ashamed. Today is a day to be happy, how about this, Aijia personally toasted the general and made amends."

She clapped her hands, and two eunuchs appeared, holding a wine jar the size of a human head in their hands.

"This is a fine wine from the Ai family's collection. It is brewed from the spiritual fruit medicine between heaven and earth. It has been stored in the wine cellar for fifty years. It is very beneficial to the cultivation of warriors. It is the only one in the entire capital."

The eunuch next to him tore off the thick paper sealed on the wine jar, letting the rich aroma of wine spread throughout the hall of the North Palace.

I have to say that this wine is really mellow, and it makes people salivate when they smell it. Even those who don't like to drink are eager to taste it.

"Wow! It smells so good!"

The smell was smelled by a cute little loli in Ji Wuchen's space ring.

She opened her small mouth and felt the saliva dripping all over the floor.

The strength of the previous glass of wine has not yet passed, and Xiaomeng's face is still flushed at this moment.

"It smells so good... Unfortunately, Xiaomeng can't drink it..."

The little loli lowered her head sadly.

She is a very sensible little loli, and she knows that this is wine for others to apologize for, so she should not drink it indiscriminately.

Ji Wuchen smiled.

"Want to drink? I'll drink it for you later."

Xiaomeng raised her head, showing an excited look.

"Really, really?"

Ji Wuchen smiled and said, "Really."

The little loli jumped up excitedly.

She quickly felt that this was a little bad, so she said: "This doesn't seem very good... Then, Ji Wuchen, just leave me a sip, okay?"

Really sensible.

Ji Wuchen sighed and nodded slightly.

With a smile on his face, Nangong Qing personally carried the wine jar and left the seat, poured a glass in front of Nangong Jing, Li Zhonglian, and Wang Yong, and finally poured wine for Ji Wuchen himself.

The golden yellow liquid is like amber, condensed into thin lines, flowing into the bowl, with an attractive color.

The Queen also poured herself a glass.
