The fake daughter of a fallen ghost is reborn

Chapter 100: This Taste She Will Never Forget

With the fun, Huo Zhiyu ordered Chai Yue: "Hurry up and get another jar of good wine."

But Concubine Ge said to the Queen Mother: "It just so happens that what I brought to the Marquis of Lin'an today is a jar of the extremely rare Thirty Years Old Immortal Drunk. I'm afraid that before I can deliver it to the Marquis of Lin'an, I will have to take it out to entertain the princess."

"Really?" Huo Zhiyu rubbed his hands: "The Immortal Drunk tastes sweet and has a clear aroma. It is even more rare to have been aged for thirty years."

Unexpectedly, Huo Wuyou, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "What do you know about wine?"

Huo Zhiyu was dissatisfied: "Stop looking down on me. Why don't I understand?"

Huo Wuyou curled his lips and said, "Last time you drank my Fenjiu as Taohuaxiao and ended up getting drunk and passed out. Have you forgotten this? You can't even tell the difference between Fenjiu and Taohuaxiao. This time, the Xianrenzui is a gift from the Imperial Concubine. I don't want to waste it in your hands again."

After that, he took the initiative to tell Chai Yue, "Go get her own wine collection."

Huo Zhiyu stamped her feet in anger: "Grandma, look at him! He's already a man of honor, but he still bullies me! It's just a jar of wine, isn't it? How stingy!"

At this moment, Concubine Ge looked a little embarrassed. She clenched her hands under her sleeves and tried to persuade them to stop fighting: "I still have some Immortal Drunk in Cuiwei Palace. Let's start with this one. Later, I will have someone send another one to Marquis Lin'an. Why hurt the relationship between brother and sister for this?"

Huo Wuyou said, "My Lady Imperial Concubine, you don't have to spoil her. Any good wine is like a cow chewing a peony in her mouth. I feel sorry for the wine, too."

Having said this, the imperial concubine could not continue to persuade her.

Soon, the palace maids brought up the cattails and wine.

Ge Yuanhui stood up and sat in front of the chessboard: "Since this is the case, Yuanhui would like to ask, who among you is willing to fight?"

An Zhaoyi didn't know how to play Chupu, Huo Zhiyu had lost interest at the moment, and Concubine Ge held her head and shook her head: "I drank some wine, and I feel dizzy looking at the chessboard, so I won't get involved."

As expected, Ge Yuanhui's eyes fell on Xue Zhiyi.

But before he could open his mouth, Huo Wuyou said, "I'll do it."

Ge Yuanhui was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Who doesn't know that Lin'an Hou Chu Pu is very skilled? Yuanhui is afraid that his skills are not as good as his..."

Huo Wuyou smiled and said, "So Miss Ge still has to choose the person to play chess with?"

Just when Ge Yuanhui was embarrassed, Xue Zhiyi stood up and said, "Let me do it."

Xue Zhiyi knows Chupu. In her previous life in Chunfeng Tower, she had to entertain guests at banquets, so she naturally knew how to play such table games.

But she has never played it in her life.

Not only that, she was also very curious about what Ge Yuanhui was planning this time.

Huo Wuyou wanted to say something, but she saw Xue Zhiyi's eyes were calm and composed, as if he was not afraid of Ge Yuanhui's suspicious malice at all, and sat down face to face with her.

Seeing this, he sat down and waited to see how Xue Zhiyi would respond.

Chupu starts the game.

Sure enough, although Ge Yuanhui's skills were excellent, Xue Zhiyi still caught him off guard and captured one of his pieces.

Ge Yuanhui was stunned, and Xue Zhiyi just smiled and reminded her: "Miss Ge, it's time to drink."

Xue Zhiyi was also very curious, why was Ge Yuanhui so confident? Did he think that his Chupu was invincible and he would never lose to others?

Ge Yuanhui looked unhappy, but he just gritted his teeth and drank the glass of wine.

When Ge Yuanhui drank the third cup, Xue Zhiyi noticed that Concubine Ge's complexion had changed unconsciously. Looking at Ge Yuanhui again, she saw that the three cups of wine had made her face a little red, and the unwillingness in her eyes became difficult to conceal because of the tipsiness.

Xue Zhiyi thought: Do you really want to win? Or do you really want to get her drunk?

After thinking for a moment and seeing that Ge Yuanhui was about to drink his fourth glass of wine, Xue Zhiyi changed the direction of the chess piece in his hand and calmly placed it in a position full of loopholes.

Finally, Ge Yuanhui won a game, but unfortunately, under the influence of alcohol, his emotions, which were usually kept secret, were inadvertently revealed in front of Xue Zhiyi.

When Xue Zhiyi was drinking, he felt Ge Yuanhui's anticipation and joy.

Well, they just wanted to get her drunk, right? Then she did as they wished.

So in the next few moves, Xue Zhiyi had more and more difficulty playing, until his cheeks turned red and his eyes were filled with deep fatigue.

Suddenly, she closed her eyes, and lay on the table with her arms as a pillow.

Ge Yuanhui couldn't help but smile: "Oh, Miss Xue must be drunk."

The Queen Mother, who had been watching the match, was very interested. Seeing this, she even joked, "The Xue family girl's alcohol tolerance is really too low."

Concubine Ge also laughed: "Isn't it? After all, she is a little girl. Usually, she is afraid that her family is very strict and rarely drinks."

As he said this, he ordered the palace maids, "Yunshuang and Yunxue, help Miss Xue down to wake up."

When Yunshuang and Yunxue helped Xue Zhiyi to stand up, Huo Wuyou wanted to say something but suddenly saw Xue Zhiyi holding his head and glanced at him quietly.

Huo Wuyou then smiled: He is so brave that he actually dares to do bad things in the palace.

……

Xue Zhiyi let Yunshuang and Yunxue support him, took soft steps, and let them help him to the back hall.

"Miss Xue, be careful. I will help you lie down."

After walking for a while, the two men helped her into a room. She squinted her eyes and couldn't see clearly where she was.

After being placed on a low couch, Yunshuang and Yunxue left the room.

When there was no more movement in the room, she quietly opened her eyes and saw the graceful sandalwood incense and elegant furnishings. There were many famous paintings from previous dynasties hanging on the walls, and there was a piece of calligraphy on the top-quality sandalwood table.

This seems to be a study.

But beside the table, the ground was covered with scattered broken jade.

Xue Zhiyi picked up a piece, but saw an empty space on the table. It looked like something was originally placed on it, but it accidentally fell to the ground and became like this.

She instantly understood what those people were planning.

Get her drunk first, and before long, the jade cup on the ground will be broken by her when she was drunk and unconscious.

If this thing happened to be the Queen Mother's favorite, she would be able to take the opportunity to get the Queen Mother to punish her. Even if the Queen Mother was magnanimous and did not blame her, she would inevitably lose the Queen Mother's favor.

Fortunately, the wine today was not too strong. If she had really drunk the Immortal Drunk, she would not have the chance to pretend to be drunk at this moment.

Fortunately, it was winter and the charcoal was burning, and the windows of the house were not locked, so she could still leave first. Otherwise, Concubine Ge would lead people here soon.

But the moment he stood up, Xue Zhiyi was startled...

She seemed to smell something, a scent mixed with sandalwood, making it difficult to detect, but the scent was too familiar for her to ignore.

She searched carefully for a moment and finally found the source of the smell. It was from a jar of ebony on the table. The jar was carved into the shape of a pine tree and a crane. It was extremely exquisite, and the pine and crane on it were lifelike.

Not only that, the ebony used looks quite old and exudes the unique fragrance of ebony.

Although Xue Zhiyi was pretending to be drunk, he had drunk some wine after all. She might have been dizzy and made a misjudgment, so she leaned in closer to sniff carefully.

Suddenly, her heart was shaken... It was not an illusion, but there was another kind of smell mixed in the ebony wood.

She had smelled this smell in her previous life and would never forget it until her death!
