I'm the villain in the book

"Little Er, get the wine!"

......

After half an hour.

Ordinary teahouse, although there is wine, it is not good.

Ning Yuke seldom drank alcohol, at most she just had a taste of it, and she had never put down all her burdens to drink to her heart's content like today.

Perhaps it was because she was delighted that she could restore her appearance in five days, or perhaps because she was free and easy in her life, which may not have much time left. She drank a few pots of bad wine by chance, and two red clouds had already appeared on her face.

And although Wei Changtian drank a lot more than Ning Yuke, he was a practitioner after all, so it was difficult to get drunk if he didn't want to.

"Princess, it's almost time."

After serving Ning Yuke the last small glass of wine, Wei Changtian finally persuaded him, "You're already drunk."

"I'm not drunk!"

Like all drunk people, Ning Yuke muttered and drank the liquid in the wine cup, and then made a gesture to get the wine pot again.

"Snapped!"

The slender hand was grasped by a powerful palm, Wei Changtian shook his head and said helplessly, "Princess, forget it."

"Hmm~"

Ning Yuke twitched a few times, and suddenly said coquettishly like a child: "I still want to drink~"

"Don't drink!"

Wei Changtian yelled sharply, which finally frightened Ning Yuke.

"If you don't drink it, don't drink it, what the hell..."

Aggrieved, she lay down on the table, blinking her big eyes at Wei Changtian, and after watching for a while, she suddenly smiled again.

"Young master, do you like me?"

In normal times, Ning Yuke would not ask such a question even if she was beaten to death, so it can be seen that she is indeed very drunk now.

Of course Wei Changtian would not be serious with a drunk person, so he casually said, "I like it."

"Then...do you like me more, or Yuzhu more?"

"you."

"My lord, don't lie to me!"

"Do not lie to you."

Wei Changtian glanced at Princess Rou'an, whose mental age had been reversed by at least 15 years, and sighed, "Princess, let's go."

"Where are you going?"

"Send you home."

"Oh......"

Ning Yuke shook her head, and just halfway up her body, she suddenly leaned back on the table and shouted:

"I won't go! I still want to listen to the young master's poems!"

"Writing poetry?"

Wei Changtian was taken aback for a moment, thinking that he was writing a poem about Mao at this time.

You're so drunk, and I'm pretending that I don't even have an audience. Isn't this Jin Yi's work for nothing?

"Do it next time."

"No, I have to do it now!"

Ning Yuke refused to let her go, she thumped her long legs and said dissatisfiedly: "Young master is willing to write poems for Huakui, General Liang, and Yuzhu, why don't you write poems for me!"

"Besides, I, I'm afraid there will be no next time..."

"..."

Hearing the last sentence, Wei Changtian's breathing seemed to stop for a beat, and he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

He sighed deeply, walked to the window with the jug in his hand, and watched the night scene outside the window without saying a word for a long time.

The riverside is brightly lit, and the water surface is calm, reflecting countless lanterns on the bank.

But under this festive and happy river, there are shadows and unfathomable shadows, always seeming to hide another side of the unknown world.

The drunken man on the boat yelled louder, and what he said was nothing more than bragging.

These are all farmers who went to the city to sell grain. After spending the night in style, they will return to the lives of ordinary people tomorrow.

And just like them, after tonight, after waking up from the wine, Ning Yuke will become the well-educated Princess Rou'an again.

"Sir..."

At some point, a drunken little face suddenly appeared beside her.

Ning Yuke supported the window sill with both hands, her body was swaying, her long hair and white skirt were blown by the night wind, creating tiny ripples in the air.

She looked up at the star-studded night sky, then at Wei Changtian who was carrying a flagon, and asked in a low voice:

"My lord, where's the poem?"

"..."

Wei Changtian paused for a while, then raised the jug to drink.

But the wine in the jug was empty, only two or three drops entered the throat.

"Puff~"

Throwing the jug far away into the river, watching the fleeting water waves, Wei Changtian finally slowly spoke a line of poetry that he thought was the most romantic.

He originally wanted to recite this poem for Xu Qingwan to listen to, but...

Let's take it as an unforgettable ending for Ning Yuke's "unforgettable night".

Small boats, big dreams, stars...

Sky and water are indistinguishable, and they merge into one in this vast night. I don’t know if the drunk passengers on the boat will forget that the stars in the water are just reflections, and think they are wandering in the Milky Way.

"I don't know the sky is in the water when I'm drunk..."

"The boat is full of clear dreams and the star river..."

"..."

"pat~"

Bean-sized teardrops lightly fell on the window sill, and immediately scattered and disappeared.

"When you are drunk, you don't know the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams, pressing down on the galaxy..."

Ning Yuke murmured and repeated it over and over again, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Young Master Wei."

"Princess."

Suddenly, the two called each other at the same time, both of them were stunned for a moment, and then they finished speaking again at the same time.

From a certain point of view, Wei Changtian and Ning Yuke do have an inexplicable understanding.

It's just that the meaning of the second half of their sentence is completely different.

"Would you like to stay a little longer?"

"We should go."

......

......

Half an hour later, a carriage slowly stopped at the gate of Prince Shun's Mansion.

Wei Changtian handed Ning Yuke, who had fallen asleep, to the stunned doorman, then got into the car and left.

In less than a stick of incense, Ning Yuke was already lying on her bed, and beside her sat Ning Yuzhu who was mixed in joy and sorrow.

It is "happy" that the eldest sister did not spend the night outside, and it is "worry" that the eldest sister is drunk.

"How is my sister?"

Seeing the doctor move his finger away from Ning Yuke's wrist, Ning Yuzhu hurriedly asked, "Is it okay?"

Because Ning Yuke's "painless physique" would cause her to be ill without knowing it, there is a resident doctor in Shun Palace, who will give Ning Yuke a "physical examination" every two or three days.

"From the pulse condition, there is no serious problem."

The doctor with long beard nodded lightly: "The only thing is that the heart beats a little fast. I'll make some hangover soup. I'll just take it after the princess wakes up."

"understood."

Ning Yuzhu responded and watched the doctor leave, then turned her gaze back to Ning Yuke.

At this moment, a few servant girls were helping the latter change his clothes, and just as he took off his outer skirt, a small wooden box suddenly slipped to the ground.

"what?"

A maid picked up the wooden box and looked up at Ning Yuzhu: "Princess, this..."

"give it to me."

Ning Yuzhu reached out to take the wooden box, opened it and took a look.

Inside was a small comb with a silver handle.

The workmanship is not bad, although it is not as high-grade as the items in the Wangfu, it is considered top-quality.

But there is something strange about this comb.

Because it is missing a tooth.

......

At the same time, the Wei residence.

As soon as Wei Changtian entered the hospital, he saw Liang Qin who was looking around nervously.

"Brother Changtian, didn't Princess Rou'an come back with you?"

"He's not homeless, why come back with me."

Wei Changtian smiled and said, "I sent her back after we saw the lantern."

"Oh......"

Liang Qin breathed a sigh of relief, but soon frowned again.

"Brother Changtian, why do you smell so much of alcohol? Have you been drinking?"

"Well, the princess wanted to drink, so I drank a few cups with her."

"Just, just drinking? Did you not do anything else?"

"Qin'er..."

Wei Changtian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "I've noticed that you've become more and more like a person recently."

Liang Qin had just heard these words during dinner, so he immediately knew who Wei Changtian was referring to.

"Brother Changtian is talking about my sister-in-law!"

"Huh? How do you know?"

"Hmph! Yuan'er laughed at me! Brother Changtian, you laughed at me too!"

Liang Qin stomped his feet and quickly ran away: "I'm off to practice swords!"

"..."

Seeing Liang Qin's back disappear into the backyard, Wei Changtian rubbed his forehead and finally returned to his room.

Yuan'er has already prepared the bath water, and is holding the small wooden stool to change her clothes.

The water vapor in the room is dense and hazy.

Outside the house, the night is as usual, and the stars are shining.
