The people serving on the ship were all people from Prince Duan's palace. Who didn't know that his master's mind was unpredictable, and if he was not careful, disaster would befall him. Especially in this depressing atmosphere, you must be cautious.

"His Royal Highness Duan Wang may have misunderstood. Although Changle is a little clever, he would never dare to lie to the imperial concubine's invitation."

Jiang Xue raised her eyes calmly with a faint smile on her lips, and looked directly into Xiao Yan's deep eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

These eyes indeed have the power to make people shudder. Fear is like this sometimes. It is rooted in the heart. Even if time goes by, whenever I recall it, that feeling can still touch every corner of the soul.

"Hmm? Then I would like to ask Princess Changle, why did she leave the palace when she felt unwell and went to a restaurant instead of returning directly to Qian Palace or the hospital?" Xiao Yan picked up the wine glass next to him and ordered the waiter to bring it to Jiang Xue and Jiang Xue. Serve fine wine.

"His Royal Highness Duan Wang may not understand, but I have been in Yujing for a year, and I miss the taste of my hometown very much. After some searching, I finally found a restaurant that suits my taste.

After staying in Beiling for many days, I felt unaccustomed to the climate, old injuries recurred, and when I was in pain, only the delicious food from my hometown could soothe my soul, so I went there. "

She recalled that when Jing Ye came to see her, in order to cover up his whereabouts, he asked Xiaochun to pack two special dishes from the Qian Kingdom and take them away, just in case.

After hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled and nodded. The previous intelligence did mention that she took away two dishes when she left. This explanation was consistent with the facts. It seemed that she was overly worried.

"I see, I was too suspicious." There was less temptation in his words, and the atmosphere in the cabin relaxed a lot. Xiao Yan drank it all in one gulp, and then his eyes fell on the wine glass in front of Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue caught his gaze, smiled like a flower, raised her glass and drank it all in one gulp. She even turned the glass upside down to show it to Xiao Yan, proving that not a drop was left.

There were ripples in Jun Li's eyes. She had known Jiang Xue for so long, but she never drank in front of him because he had accidentally revealed that he didn't like the smell of alcohol.

But at this moment, seeing her drinking with Xiao Yan, his heart surged with unprecedented complex emotions.

"Chang Le is truly extraordinary!" Xiao Yan laughed heartily, then turned to Lu Linyi: "Miss Linyi, please have a taste. It's cold in the middle of winter, so a drink can warm you up."

Lu Linyi looked at the wine glass in front of him and picked it up hesitantly. She was born with a sensitive constitution and would become dizzy after being exposed to alcohol. Doctors said she was born with a poor tolerance for alcohol.

In the past, when her father was around, no one forced her to drink because of his majesty. But today, she was facing the third prince of Beiling and the powerful Prince Duan, a figure that even her father did not dare to rebel against. How could she, a weak woman, refuse?

Lu Linyi took a deep breath and decided to drink it. Just when the cup was about to touch his lips, a warm and jade-like hand gently blocked the mouth of the cup.

"Your Highness Prince Duan, Miss Linyi is naturally allergic to alcohol. Even if she is slightly tipsy, it will make her breathless.

You kindly invited us today. If Miss Linyi gets into trouble because of a small drink, it will not be good for your reputation. Let me, Changle, handle this wine. "As soon as Jiang Xue finished speaking, she raised her head and saw that the wine glass was empty.

When Jun Li saw this, he was shocked - there was Ruanjin powder hidden in that wine, specially prepared for Lu Linyi!

In a hurry, he almost rushed forward, but when he thought that Xiao Yan was beside him, he stopped abruptly.

"The vastness of Changle is really beyond my expectation." Although Xiao Yan's plan was blocked, he still had that charming smile on his face, but there was a bit more subtle sharpness in that smile.

"Chang Le, are you okay?" Lu Linyi looked at Jiang Xue guiltily, and the latter's face was flushed, obviously due to alcohol.

Jiang Xue shook her head gently and gave her a reassuring smile.

She had already prepared for it. After taking one detoxification pill, two glasses of strong wine were nothing. As for Ruanjin Powder, well, the He family brother had already taught her life-saving medical skills and the development of detoxifying pills, and she was completely indifferent to ordinary poisons.

"Come here, bring two more jugs of wine." Xiao Yan's order made Lu Linyi extremely anxious. She persuaded softly: "Your Highness, Prince Duan, Changle has already drank two glasses. I'm afraid he can't drink anymore."

"Don't worry, Miss Linyi. There are comfortable guest rooms on my ship. If the princess is drunk, you can rest here." After the words fell, two jugs full of wine were presented. Xiao Yan poured two large glasses directly and handed them to Jiang Xue.

Jun Li frowned, Xiao Yan was obviously taking revenge on Jiang Xue because his plan was thwarted!

This wine is very strong, enough to knock down a strong man. The two pots contain at least four large bowls! If Jiang Xue really wanted to drink it, how could she still be sober?

They say you can rest when you are drunk. If this is true, if word spreads, Jiang Xue's reputation will be completely ruined!

Jiang Xue looked at the two newly filled glasses of wine, Xiao Yan's desire for revenge was as strong as ever. If he ruins his good deeds, he will ruin her reputation. This scheming has not changed at all over the years.

"His Royal Highness Duan Wang, this wine is quite strong. The two drinks just now have almost reached the limit of Changle. It is rare for us to enjoy His Highness's banquet on the lake. If we don't enjoy the beautiful scenery, we will be living up to His Highness's kindness."

Although she can drink well, she doesn't want to be force-fed, especially if the other person is harboring evil intentions.

"Chang Le, the wine is already full, how can there be any reason to take it back? If you don't drink, you won't give me face. Do you think you are asking for water?" Xiao Yan deliberately asked Jun Li in front of Jiang Xue, does Chang Le not Have you always listened to Junli the most? As soon as Jun Li opened his mouth, he didn't believe in Chang Le and he dared not step down.

"What His Highness Prince Duan said is absolutely true, Princess Changle. His Highness has been collecting this wine for many years and is sharing it with others for the first time. Today, he is so happy that he took it out to drink together. Princess, please don't refuse."

Although Jun Li was worried about Jiang Xue, he still chose to sacrifice her at the critical moment. If her reputation is gone, the worst she can do is to make her a concubine, which will be considered compensation and prevent her from being alone all her life.

"If Changle is afraid of missing the scenery, don't worry." Xiao Yan waved his hand, and the curtains were fully opened, giving an unobstructed view of the lakes and mountains.

He smiled proudly: "In this way, Changle can enjoy the scenery and taste wine at the same time, without delaying both."

It seems that Xiao Yan must succeed today.

"Your Highness is full of elegance, how can Changle spoil your fun? This wine is so precious, it would be too selfish for Changle to enjoy it alone, and the wine is easy to get drunk, so drinking alone is boring. Changle suggested that we make a drinking order, and the loser will punish himself with a drink. This makes drinking interesting. "

"Drinking order? It's interesting."

Xiao Yan's eyes lit up and he felt bored. Besides, what kind of tricks can a woman do?

Then he agreed: "Okay, then let's do the drinking order."

"But Changle is already tipsy from the first two drinks. Can Miss Linyi handle Changle's drinking orders?"

Lu Linyi read poetry and books to his heart's content, and only drank wine, which was a piece of cake.

"I agree." Xiao Yan leaned back and put his hands on the armrests.

"The first sentence, I will come first."

He touched his chin and glanced at the two of them: "The golden cup of Jade Lake reflects the drunken beauty."
