After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

Chapter 47: The Duke of Du was Forced to Drink

Although it was called a palace banquet, the conditions for the autumn hunt could not be compared with those in the palace, and it was only held in a large tent.

They arrived safely on time, and let Wen Baizhi get off the sedan when they were about a hundred meters away from the destination.

"Please forgive me, Madam. Although the Governor said that you have the capital to show off, he also knows that you don't like to show off, so he asked me to put you down here. You can walk there without attracting other people's attention."

Cuizhi lit a lantern and came forward to light the way for Wen Baizhi.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Governor, to consider all these details so carefully."

Ping An echoed, "Madam, the governor has always been like this."

Wen Baizhi understood everything in her heart, so she stopped talking and the few of them quickly walked out of the tent.

Ping An took Wen Baizhi to the side of the tent, where there was a curtain that was smaller than the average curtain.

Ping An stepped forward and lifted the curtain: "Madam, this is a small door, no one cares about it. Go through this door and you will reach the place that the governor has prepared for you."

Wen Baizhi lowered her head and walked into the tent.

Although the autumn hunting plan was opposed by many ministers at the beginning, it still caused Si Jiu to be punished.

But after Wen Baizhi sat down, she found that among those who had already sat down, there were many ministers who had expressed opposition at the beginning.

Even Yun Shanliu came.

She couldn't help but smile sarcastically.

The good people have done it for them, so why don’t they follow through to the end?

Now that the autumn hunting had begun, everyone came to participate as if nothing had happened.

She really looked down on him.

She was very satisfied with the position Si Jiu prepared for her. Just as he said, it was placed in the corner, a dark place where no light could reach.

Since we were inside a tent, we couldn't have a big round table like at a normal banquet.

There was only a long table in front of everyone, with various foods on it.

This really is hard for Si Jiu, as the food prepared in such a remote place is actually very tailored to Kyoto's taste.

As everyone took their seats, the protagonist of Autumn Hunting----

The current Emperor of Dacheng, Qi Yanan, has arrived.

Everyone stood up and saluted.

Wen Baizhi also stood up and looked at the person in her memory from afar after three years.

Qi Yan'an said in a deep voice: "My dear ministers, please stand up and take a seat to eat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Wen Baizhi had wanted to sit down for a long time. She found that she felt physically uncomfortable when she heard Qi Yan'an's voice again.

In front of her were the foods she liked to eat every day.

I think it was all specially arranged by Si Jiu.

Thinking of Si Jiu, Wen Baizhi looked up to look for him.

Unexpectedly, she saw Si Jiu standing upright behind Qi Yan'an.

This was the first time she saw Si Jiu in front of outsiders since their reunion.

Meticulously dressed, with a face as calm as water and a straight back.

Wen Baizhi's first reaction was to worry that his knees wouldn't be able to take it.

Because she went to see Si Jiu, Wen Baizhi couldn't help but look at Qi Yanan again.

Si Jiu stood behind him, and on his left and right sat a beautiful concubine.

Although she didn't know the status of these two people, Wen Baizhi still wanted to laugh.

When Qi Yan'an asked her to marry him, he said that there would only be one queen in the harem.

What now?

She looked away with disdain and went to eat the food in front of her.

On the other side, after a singing and dancing performance and a sword show, the banquet was almost over.

At this moment, Yun Shanliu suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty."

Qi Yanan narrowed his eyes: "What does Yun Xiang mean?"

Yun Shanliu held up the wine glass and said, "Your Majesty, I previously advised against Qiushou for my own sake and for Your Majesty."

Qi Yan'an: "I have always known what Prime Minister Yun is thinking."

Yun Shanliu said: "Fortunately, the governor turned the tide and came up with a clever plan to solve the problem of autumn hunting. This really makes me ashamed to face it."

Qi Yanan turned around and glanced at Si Jiu who was standing respectfully. "Si Jiu was lucky enough to accomplish this. Yun Xiang is the backbone of the court. How can he be compared with him?"

Yun Shanliu raised his glass and said, "Your Majesty, this is really embarrassing for me. I am willing to drink this wine to express my regret."

After saying that, he picked up the wine glass and drank it.

Qi Yanan watched quietly and winked at Li Qing who was standing below.

Li Qing immediately brought over a large bowl filled with wine.

Qi Yanan said loudly: "Prime Minister Yun has devoted all his energy to the country and the people. Si Jiu, Prime Minister Yun has drunk this wine. I believe you will not have any complaints against Prime Minister Yun. If you have no complaints, drink this bowl of wine. You are all good ministers of Dacheng."

Upon hearing this, Li Qing handed the wine bowl to Si Jiu.

Si Jiu's expression was still indifferent, but he had already taken the wine bowl.

"I also want to apologize to Prime Minister Yun. I have offended Prime Minister Yun before. We are all doing this for His Majesty and for Dacheng. I will also drink this wine like Prime Minister Yun did."

Wen Baizhi was at the farthest point and had already heard this scene.

She saw Si Jiu pick up the wine bowl and drink up all the wine in the bowl in one breath as if he was drinking water.

She suddenly felt a surge of anger rushing to the top of her head.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, she sneaked out through the small curtain she had just entered through.

After Si Jiu finished drinking, his first reaction was the extreme coldness in his stomach.

What followed was a dense mass of pain.

He instinctively looked at Wen Baizhi's position.

It was arranged by him personally, and he prepared all the dishes himself.

She was there before, but now she is gone.

What was more distressing than the stomachache was his heartache at that moment.

He wished he could drag his broken body to find her right now.

But it’s not possible yet. He can’t leave yet. Qi Yan’an won’t let him go so easily.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the wine."

With a pale face, he handed the wine bowl to Li Qing.

Qi Yan'an was very satisfied when he saw him finish the bowl of wine.

"Not bad, not bad. Lord Si has a good alcohol tolerance. Come, Li Qing, fill up our Lord Si's glass again."

Li Qing hurriedly did as he was told.

Another bowl of wine was handed to Si Jiu.

Qi Yanan said with a smile: "Si Jiu, you are the one in charge of this autumn hunt. You deserve whatever amount of wine I give you."

Si Jiu swallowed hard the blood that surged up and said, "Everything I do is for Your Majesty and Dacheng. As long as Your Majesty and Dacheng still need me, I will be valuable."

After saying this, he drank the bowl of wine again.

But this time he finished the bowl a little slower than the previous one.

Qi Yanan laughed loudly: "Great! I believe that Dacheng will become a stronger country in the future!"

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

In the end, Si Jiu drank a total of five bowls of sake, without eating anything.

After Qi Yan'an left, Si Jiu was finally able to leave.

Ping An was sent by him to follow Wen Baizhi, so now he has no one he can trust by his side.

He pinched his palms hard to keep himself awake.

When he finally walked out of the tent, his feet could no longer hold on and he staggered forward a few steps.

He had nowhere to support himself, so he could only grab the hem of his clothes tightly at his waist.

The purpose is to prevent your clothes from getting messy when you really faint on the ground.

Just when he felt the future was bleak and dark.

A familiar figure approached him.

Before he had time to look back, the man reached out and supported him again.

"You were very capable when you were drinking just now, why can't you do it now, Dugong?"

Hearing her voice, Si Jiu could no longer pretend.

"You're here, glad you're here."

After saying this breathlessly, blood flowed from the corner of Si Jiu's mouth and he fainted in Wen Baizhi's arms.
