The next day, the dinner party arrived as scheduled.

Yue Huaiying was probably afraid that he would really complain to his father in a fit of anger, so the dinner was arranged grandly and extravagantly.

If it wasn't for the vast ice field outside the banquet hall, Nan Xiao would have almost thought that he was in the imperial capital.

He grasped the measure, pretended to be quite satisfied with the arrangement of the banquet, and followed Yue Huaiying into the banquet hall slowly.

There were about dozens of people in the banquet hall, and most of them were wearing military uniforms. It was obviously the first time they had attended such a banquet, and their expressions and movements were a little stiff.

"Your Highness, the people who came to the banquet today are all senior generals in the army. The conditions on the edge of the planet are difficult, and they are no better than God. Your Highness is suffering here."

"This banquet should be regarded as a minister apologizing to His Highness—I will offer a toast to Your Highness first!"

Nan Xiao held the little dragon cub with one hand, picked up the wine glass with the other, took a sip of the wine, and smiled calmly.

"General Yue is too polite. In my opinion, the conditions of the marginal planets are not worse than those of the imperial capital."

Seeing the restrained and helpless looks of those generals, it is likely that they have never seen such an extravagant dinner party.

In order to please him, Yue Huaiying spent a lot of manpower and material resources on organizing such a dinner party, saying that he is a loyal minister, no ghost would believe it.

"Your Highness was joking. Your Highness grew up rich and well-clothed. We are all rough people. Your Highness laughed at me."

Yue Huaiying didn't seem to understand the irony in his words, she just thought it was the little prince who was spoiled and spoiled, as absurd as the stupid king who asked "why not eat minced meat" in history.

"Soldiers, in the name of His Majesty, the little prince is here to inspect our army stationed on the edge of the planet. Let's all offer a toast to His Majesty!"

Nan Xiao didn't refuse and drank a few glasses of wine readily.

Her fair complexion has already been stained with a few faint blush.

With the movement of drinking, he glanced around the banquet. The guards here were all Yue Huaiying's subordinates, but most of the people who attended the banquet were not on the list of rebel generals he had seen.

According to the plan discussed with Han Yuan last night, we still need to wait a little longer.

"General Yue...you can drink really well."

Nan Xiao put down his wine glass, the young man's dark almond eyes were somewhat hollowed by the smell of alcohol.

"I... I'm not good at drinking, I can't drink any more."

"Your Highness is not in good health, you should drink less."

"However, General Yue specially arranged such a banquet for me, so I don't want to spoil the fun. Why don't I replace wine with tea, and have a few more drinks with you?"

The young man's face was like a peach and plum, and he looked cute and gentle when he smiled, without any offensive power.

Yue Huaiying had just made a toast to the generals here, and drank a few more glasses with Nan Xiao, her complexion was already a little flushed.

Hearing Nan Xiao said that he would continue to drink with him, he seemed to hesitate for a while.

Nan Xiao immediately continued: "I, I... I seem to be a little drunk and dizzy, why don't I trouble General Yue to take care of the little dragon cub for me?"

As soon as the words fell, Yue Huaiying's eyes immediately flashed a gleam of joy.

"It's what I should do to take care of the little dragon cub for His Highness."

Nan Xiao snickered from the bottom of his heart, pretending to have a headache from drinking too much, lowered his head and pressed his temple, and led the little dragon cub he was leading towards Yue Huaiying with one hand.

Yue Huaiying pulled the little dragon cub with a hint of urgency.

Nan Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, keenly capturing the joy that Yue Huaiying was trying to suppress, and the corners of his lips could not help but slightly rise.

Yue Huaiying probably regarded the little dragon cub as a thorn in his flesh for a long time, and wished to find a chance to get rid of the little dragon cub.

After all, the identity of the little dragon cub is only Han Yuan's illegitimate son, and it has not been fully disclosed to the public. He is not the next dragon son recognized by everyone.

It's better to kill him now than to wait for his name to be justified later.

It's a pity that Yue Huaiying had a good plan, but he didn't expect that the little prince handed over the little dragon cub to kill him.

"Is your highness feeling okay? If your highness feels unwell, why don't you sit there for a while?"

Nan Xiao waved his hand.

"It's just a little dizzy, just take a rest... General Yue can drink as much as he wants, don't worry about me."

Yue Huaiying's eyes moved away from the drunken little prince in front of him, and fell on the silvery little dragon cub in front of him.

A smug smile slowly enlarged on his face.

After thinking about it for a few days, I didn't think of a suitable excuse to snatch this little brat away from the little prince.

Unexpectedly, when the little prince got drunk today, it would take no effort at all!

The little prince needs to be drunk a little bit more, preferably the kind that is already unconscious at the end of the banquet, so that he can take the little boy back to the camp and deal with it secretly.

"Hey, what's the point of drinking it alone? I asked someone to change the fruit wine for His Highness. The alcohol has a low alcohol content and tastes like fruit juice. It's not easy to get drunk. How many more drinks will Your Highness accompany me?"

Before coming to the banquet, Nan Xiao had already taken the hangover medicine.

In addition, he only drank to show his face, and his drinking capacity was much better than it seemed on the surface, and he definitely couldn't get drunk with a few glasses of fruit wine.

He glanced at the lowered eyelashes in front of Yue Huaiying, looked at the docile and sensible little dragon cub, and cooperatively took the wine glass handed over by Yue Huaiying.

"Okay, then I...then I'll have another drink with General Yue."

Not far away, several generals looked at the two talking and laughing happily, and couldn't help but put down the wine glasses in their hands heavily.

"It's simply absurd! Yue Huaiying, in order to clean up the little prince of the empire, spent so much material on this banquet... How much new equipment can this money buy for the army?!"

"I'm still a little prince, what's the big deal when I visit our place, it turns out that I'm here to eat, drink and have fun, just for a formality!"

"I also heard that the marriage contract between Lord Shengzi and the little prince will be resumed. Haven't you heard that Lord Shengzi didn't return to the edge planet this time, just to stay in the imperial capital to prepare for the wedding!"

Several people lowered their voices and exchanged a few words, all of them were a little bit aggrieved.

"How is it possible, how could Lord Shengzi take a fancy to such a pampered dandy?!"

"Yeah, you said...could it be that Lord Shengzi was detained by the emperor?"

"You can't talk nonsense about this - if Yue Huaiying hears it, maybe you will be arrested and sent to a military court!"

"That villain Yue Huaiying—oh, I thought the little prince came to inspect the army to investigate Yue Huaiying, who knew they—"

"boom"!

The door of the banquet hall was slammed open.

Nan Xiao's heartstrings tensed instantly, he slowly sat up straight, and looked in the direction of the banquet gate.

Several teams of soldiers were escorting a few officers who had been shackled in manacles to come in. Seeing that everyone at the banquet looked over, they immediately said loudly.

"According to the order of Lord Shengzi, these people intend to rebel and collude with interstellar pirates. They are now relieved of their positions and are going to be handed over to a military court—according to their identification, there are accomplices here!"
