“Yes, my lord. I won’t look at that bastard anymore.” Gu Bailu giggled.
Her husband was incomparable except for the fact that he could be a little petty.
“You…” Feng Qingtian kissed her lips helplessly. “Be good.”
Gu Bailu nodded and yawned. It was late, and the pregnant woman wanted to sleep.
Feng Qingtian stood up, said that the princess was going to sleep, and brought her away.
Everyone had ulterior motives for attending such a banquet.
Su Shenfan curled his lip as he watched them leave. What a great plan. Was it to draw so many people to Rising Clouds Empire to fluster them?
Su Shenfan lowered his eyes. His golden mask glittered under the light.
There were naturally countless people who came to toast Shao Zun.
He was also a smooth person who didn’t offend people easily. When he was in a good mood, he still gave people face.
After downing glass after glass of wine, he was a little tipsy.
“Shao Zun, the three beauties beside you are truly wonderful.” Someone made use of the toast to try and strike up a conversation.
Su Shenfan looked at the beauties sitting around him and smiled proudly. “If you want them… I won’t give them to you.”
It was none other than the elder brother of the imperial consort and the current head of the Ouyang family.
“No matter how much I want them, I can’t steal what Shao Zun loves and can only be envious. I heard that my brother-in-law gave these three beauties to you. That’s good. If they were in the harem, my sister wouldn’t be able to serve my brother-in-law.”
He sighed, as if he was worried that his sister would be abandoned if the three beauties seduced his brother-in-law.
Su Shenfan said indifferently, “The imperial consort has been doted on all these years. His Majesty likes her very much. If he didn’t have such a wonderful person like the imperial consort, how could he be willing to give something so good to me?”
Ouyang Xing smiled and said, “How can he not be willing to do such a great thing for you?”
Su Shenfan sneered in his heart. This man was here to get information from him.
“If you want, you can ask him for some; His Majesty’s harem is full of beauties. There’s no need to be afraid that he won’t give you any.” Su Shenfan avoided Ouyang Xing’s question.
Trying to sound him out – did this person have a brain?
“My brother-in-law didn’t call for me for such a big matter, and I wasn’t of any help to him; I don’t deserve a reward. I wouldn’t dare ask him for a beauty.”
The beauty next to Su Shenfan leaned on his shoulder and handed him a glass of wine. “Shao Zun, you’re ignoring Jiaojiao. What’s the point of talking to men? Here, have a drink. Jiaojiao will feed you.”
Su Shenfan put his arm around her waist and drank the cup of wine. He kissed her neck. “As expected, beauties are still the best.”
Ouyang Xing smiled and left.
As expected of Shao Zun. He had already given such an obvious hint, but Shao Zun hadn’t taken the bait.
It seemed that he had to meet with his sister.
By the end of the banquet, this group of people with ulterior motives hadn’t gotten anything out of Shao Zun.
The Rising Clouds Emperor naturally didn’t say anything, as if there was nothing going on.
Everyone was puzzled. Who had spread the news? Was it not true?
After the banquet, Shao Zun was already a little drunk, and the three beautiful women brought him back to Qinghua Palace.
Bu Yaolian was woken up by the noise. She put on a cloak and got out of bed. She walked to the window and looked at the brightly lit corridor. The three beauties were dressed in light, flowy clothes, and there was the smell of wine on them.
