The singing and dancing in the palace were no different from her palace banquet in Dongming Kingdom.

However, this delicacy is different.

In fact, there is no difference between the dishes of Xihe Kingdom and those of Dongming Kingdom.

But I don’t know if it’s a problem with the seasonings. The dishes look the same but taste different.

So she really wasn't used to eating. Recently, she was cooking the stove by herself in the small kitchen of Suiyin Palace.

Xingxue ate with her. Recently, she had also become naughty and disliked the dishes sent from the dining room.

Of course, there are only a few, and it’s not that all the dishes are not made to suit your taste.

Next to Ji Yao is Qingchen, and on the other side is Shu Jing, Concubine Jing.

After Ji Yao left the table first, Shu Jing met Qing Shen's eyes with a side glance.

"Princess, this is the daughter of the Prime Minister of Xihe Kingdom, Shu Jing." Xingxue reminded her in her ear.

In fact, Xingxue didn't need to tell her, Qingchen could probably guess that He Lanyan's harem was not like that of her father, who had been emperor for many years. There were so many concubines in the harem that she couldn't even remember them.

Not to mention that Qingchen couldn't remember, my father probably didn't remember any of his concubines who were not favored.

There were only three concubines in He Lanyan's harem including his own. Ji Yao left the banquet, and the other remaining concubine was Concubine Jing.

Shu Jing looked at her and raised her jade cup towards her. Her voice came softly through the music in the palace, "Sister Yue Fei, I have admired you for a long time."

Long admired?

This……

Why do you say this compliment?

She didn't know what to say.

Qingchen smiled at her and raised the jade cup in his hand. After seeing Shu Jing drink all the wine in the cup, he hesitated, and she also drank the wine in the cup.

The wine was a bit spicy, and the smell of the wine dispersed, lingering on the tip of her nose.

She coughed slightly, attracting He Lanyan's attention, and she immediately put a grape into her mouth.

The sweetness of the grapes couldn't cover up the spiciness of the wine, so she quickly ate a few more.

"It's been half a month since Sister Yue Fei entered the palace. Are you still used to everything?" Suddenly, the queen sitting next to He Lanyan asked softly.

I heard that Queen Shangguan Mi came from a scholarly family and she was gentle and soft-spoken.

Qingchen looked at her with tender eyes, nodded and smiled at her, "The queen is interested, everything is fine."

Hey, don't ask such polite words.

When you move from your own country to another country, where can you get used to it?

"That's good. If you are short of food and clothing, you can tell me."

"Yes, thank you Queen."

Shangguan Mi's eyes stayed on her face for a few seconds and then moved away.

I don't know if it was the problem with the glass of wine just now. After sitting for a while, her face started to feel hot and her head felt dizzy.

The wine was a bit strong, and for someone who didn't know how to drink, this small glass was enough to make her unsteady.

She held her head and stood up, "Your Majesty, I am a bit drunk, please allow me to leave first."

Too drunk?

He Lanyan's eyes fell on her face, which was red from wine. She just had a drink. How could she be so drunk so quickly?

"Do you need someone to take you back?"

"No need..." Xingxue next to Qingchen supported her, "Concubine, just let Xingxue hold me."

"In this case, Xingxue, you have to send your master back home properly."

"Yes." Xingxue responded expressionlessly.

After Qingchen left Haitang Hall, he asked Xingxue to quickly take out the hangover medicine and take it himself.

The two of them walked back to the Suiyin Palace.

She was not good at drinking, so she prepared anti-alcohol medicine when she was in Suiyin Hall.

But you can't take it in Haitang Palace, otherwise you won't be able to find an excuse to leave first.

Returning to Suiyin Palace, Xingxue noticed something strange in the palace as soon as she closed the bedroom door.

She hurriedly stopped Qingchen who was about to walk in, and made a silent gesture towards her.

Qingchen immediately stopped knowingly, Xingxue gently pulled out her sword and walked towards the screen in the dormitory.

Qingchen suddenly woke up, held his breath, and followed her.

Xingxue looked in the direction of the heartbeat she heard, and pointed her sword directly at the slit behind the bed. Just as she was about to pierce it, a male voice came from inside.

"No, no, no...it's me, princess."

Qingchen paused for a moment. The voice sounded familiar, but it was too weak and she still couldn't remember where she had heard it.

She just asked Xingxue to get the person out.

Xingxue grabbed the person inside by the collar and dragged him out.

Qingchen saw the face of the intruder and called out in surprise: "Qi Xiao?"

I saw injuries on his chest and feet. The moment he was dragged out, the dormitory was filled with a faint smell of blood.

"What are you..." Qingchen frowned and saw that his face was pale and there was blood at the corner of his mouth. Compared with the first time they met that night, he looked much more embarrassed.

"Hey, didn't I tell you before, my mission failed, I was chased by King Yan, and then by His Majesty." Qi Xiao looked pale and explained with difficulty.

"Oh, then I should hand you over to His Majesty at this time." Qingchen sat down on the wooden bench in the palace, took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"Princess, is this person the one who drugged you on the first night we entered Xihe Country?" Go up, "Just kill him."

When Qi Xiao heard this, he immediately shrank back and said, "No, no, no, no, please listen to me first..."

"Well, let me listen, what do you want to say?" Qing Shen stared at him calmly.

"Princess, don't hand me over to anyone. If you can save me, I...I can help you escape from Xihe Country." For this little princess, Qi Xiao thought there was nothing more tempting than this condition.

Qingchen and Xingxue looked at each other, and Qingchen asked Xingxue to put away her sword.

"Then why should I believe you? After all, that time, you drugged me before leaving." Although nothing happened in the end, she really couldn't imagine that if He Lanyan didn't come at that time, maybe He Lanyan didn't let Yuli What will be the consequences if you drink the antidote to yourself?

Qi Xiao paused for a moment and hurriedly begged for mercy: "I'm sorry, princess, you have a lot, and I had no choice at that time. Why don't you drug me too, and we'll be even?"

"Hmph, you have a good idea." Qingchen glared at him, seeing that he had no strength to speak and his injuries were not light.

He Lanyan's injury was healed, and there was still golden sore medicine in her bedroom. She asked Xingxue to get it.

"Why are you hiding in this palace?"

Mentioning this matter, Qi Xiao showed a pale smile, "As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. King Yan and His Majesty are both looking for me, so I will hide in this palace, they I probably didn’t expect it, but I was unlucky enough to be discovered and hit by two arrows.”

After Qingchen heard the words, he was silent for a long time. Just when he was about to say something, Huaisang's voice came from outside the door, "I'm here to see you, Your Majesty."
