After a while, the housekeeper came with five servants, each holding a jar of peach blossom wine in their arms.

Xie Xi nodded and signaled everyone to place the five jars of peach blossom wine on the table. He then looked up at the Third Prince and asked in a gentle tone, "I wonder if five jars of peach blossom wine are enough for Third Prince to drink?"

The third prince: "..."

He just wanted to find something to hold against his second brother so that he could report him in front of his father, and he didn't really want to get drunk in the prince's mansion.

Seeing this, Xie Yue secretly smiled in his heart. Looking at the ugly face of his third brother, he must have never thought that the crown prince would be so unreasonable. Now he wanted to see how the third brother would deal with the crown prince's difficulties!

Bai Qiuyuan and Meng Huaijun looked at each other, and everything was said without words.

The Third Prince's wife, who was sitting at the next table, was stunned when she saw this. She looked at the five jars of peach blossom wine on the table. If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insisted on drinking with the Third Prince, then the Third Prince would certainly not be able to escape.

But she knew that the Third Prince had a small problem. When he was drunk, he would talk nonsense. If he was really drunk and said something he shouldn't say, then...

No, no, we must not let the Third Prince taste wine with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The Third Prince's wife stood up immediately. She turned sideways and smiled calmly at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. "Your Highness, the Third Prince is not good at drinking. I'm afraid it will be a bit boring for Your Highness to compete with the Third Prince in drinking."

"If Your Highness is really so elegant, why don't I take my husband's place?"

Xie Xi was speechless for a moment.

The Third Prince, however, had a sullen expression on his face, and he shouted at the Third Prince's Consort: "What are you talking about? Sit down!"

"Why should I ask you to do this for me, regarding matters between us brothers?"

"It's rare that the Second Prince invites me, so I naturally won't refuse."

After these words were spoken, the Third Prince's wife looked at him with a complicated expression. Her lips moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

But under the gaze of the Third Prince, she swallowed the words that were about to come to her lips.

The Third Prince's wife sat down in silence.

The Seventh Princess of Fan State, who was sitting next to her, glanced at her silently, and pushed the plate of cakes in front of her to her. She smiled and said, "Princess Third Prince, this cake is very good. Would you like to try it?"

The Third Prince's wife took a deep breath and hummed, "Thank you."

She was only thinking about the Third Prince, but the Third Prince...

Forget it, he insisted on showing off and she couldn't stop him.

-

"Second brother wants to have a drinking contest, how about everyone here join in?"

The third prince raised his eyebrows slightly.

With just one sentence, the fifth prince, the sixth prince, Zhai Chengwen, Bai Qiuyuan, and Meng Huaijun were all dragged into the drinking party.

Xie Xi said calmly: "I think it's okay, it depends on their opinion."

"What do you think?"

Xie Yue was the first to speak out: "I can drink quite well, I can compete with my Third Brother."

The Sixth Prince thought about it seriously and agreed, "Okay."

As for Zhai Chengwen, Bai Qiuyuan and Meng Huaijun, they naturally would not have any objection.

Bai Qiuyuan nodded: "Then pour the wine."

"Good! Lord Bai is straightforward!"

The third prince laughed and asked a maid to pour wine for them.

Concubine Xiao motioned Qingcong to come forward and pour wine for everyone.

All the food on the table was cleared away, leaving only five jars of peach blossom wine and seven large bowls.

Qingcong stepped forward, picked up the wine jar and poured the wine into the bowl.

The third prince took the lead in picking up a bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp without hesitation. He raised his hand and wiped the corners of his lips that were stained with wine, "I'll drink it first!"

The Third Prince's wife looked at him nervously.
