Chapter 681

Many people present found the emperor's strangeness and subconsciously slowed down.

It took a long time for Luo Qinghan to speak, but his voice was as cold as ever.

"Are you Princess Nanfeng?"

Xiao Xixi: "Yes."

Luo Qinghan nodded, indicating that he knew, then raised the glass and drank it.

Before others toasted, he just took a sip or didn't drink it.

Right now, he drank all the wine in one gulp, which is really too much for Nanyue's mission.

The Nanyue messengers also drank all the wine in their cups.

The four sat back to their original positions.

There were others behind toast to the emperor, but the emperor did not move the wine glass again.

He just sat there quietly, looking nothing out of the ordinary.

What no one knew was that his fingers, which were hidden in his wide sleeves, were trembling.

If he were to take out his hand now, he might not even be able to hold the wine glass.

He didn't have this problem before, but since he knew that Xixi was gone, he had such a problem - as long as he was too emotional, the index and middle fingers of his right hand would shake uncontrollably.

There are very few people who know that he has this problem. Apart from himself, there is only Eunuch Chang who has followed him for many years.

But at this time, he concealed it very well, and even Eunuch Chang, who was familiar with him, couldn't see his strangeness.

Xiao Xixi's heart beat like a drum, and she was so nervous.

She wondered if Luo Qinghan recognized her?

What should she do if she recognizes it?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at the man sitting up looking up again.

At this glance, it happened to meet Luo Qinghan's line of sight.

Xiao Xixi suddenly stiffened, and his breathing seemed to stop.

Just when she thought Luo Qinghan would say something, he just looked away expressionlessly.

Seeing this, Xiao Xixi felt a huge loss in her heart.

Did he not recognize her?

Although this result was long in her expectations, she still felt disappointed.

Yue Gang saw that she was uncomfortable and took the initiative to pour her a drink.

"Princess, this wine is good, try it?"

Xiao Xixi picked up the glass and drank it all at once.

Yue Gang praised: "Princess is a good drinker!"

Xiao Xixi turned grief and anger into appetite, tore off a chicken leg and devoured it.

As if she wasn't eating chicken drumsticks, but some bastard who had a new love and forgot the old one!

I accidentally ate all the food and drinks on the table.

She ate too deeply to notice the secret gaze from the emperor.

The feast came to an end.

The Empress Dowager had already left.

After all, she is old and lacks energy.

In the past, when encountering such lively occasions, the emperor would only stay for a while, and he would leave the table early when he meant it.

Everyone knows that he likes quietness and doesn't like too many people getting together.

But tonight the emperor has been sitting at the top, and has no intention of leaving.

It wasn't until the banquet was over that he got up and left.

Before leaving, he glanced at Princess Nanfeng unintentionally, and instructed lightly.

"Send the Nanyue mission out of the palace, don't neglect them."

At this time, Xiao Xixi was already drunk, and her mind was dizzy.

But she still remembered what the big brother told her, no matter who came to talk to her, she was always like "I can't do it, I don't know anything".

Those who wanted to test her while she was drunk all came back in vain.

Yue Gang helped Xiao Xixi into the sedan chair.

The maids carried the palace lanterns to clear the way in front, and dozens of imperial guards accompanied them on both sides, sending the Nanyue mission out of the palace.

Outside the palace gate, a carriage was already waiting.

The Nanyue Mission returned to Honglu Temple in a carriage.

Fang Wujiu looked at the drunk Xiao Xixi and asked with a frown.

"Why did you drink so much?"

Xiao Xixi giggled: "The wine is delicious, and the food is delicious too."

Fang Wujiu asked someone to bring hot water to help Xiao Xixi wipe his face and wash his hands.

Xiao Xixi suddenly burst into tears.

Fang Wujiu stopped: "Why are you crying? Did I hurt you too hard?"

Xiao Xixi cried and said, "I saw him, but he ignored me. Did he not recognize me?"

Fang Wujiu: "That can only mean that he is blind, why do you have to cry?"

Xiao Xixi: "But I'm uncomfortable."

Fang Wujiu: "Even if it's uncomfortable, you can't drink so much alcohol and hurt your body."

He stuffed a bowl of sober soup into Xiao Xixi's hand.

"Drink the soup while it's hot, so as not to get up in the morning with a headache."

Xiao Xixi drank the soup obediently.

She hummed, "Eldest brother is so kind to me."

Fang Wujiu carried her to the bed and helped her cover the quilt.

"Have a good night's sleep, and when you wake up, nothing will happen."

Xiao Xixi's eyes were still a little red, like a poor little rabbit.

She said in a stern voice, "Good night, Senior Brother."

Fang Wujiu touched her head, got up and left.

He found Yue Gang and asked about the details of the banquet.

Yue Gang said everything he saw.

After listening to him, Fang Wujiu probably had some idea in his heart.

The night is dark.

However, there are still many people in the palace who can't sleep.

For example, Concubine Jing, she has been recalling the emperor's reaction when he saw Princess Nanfeng at the dinner party. It seemed that the emperor didn't say much, but she could feel that the emperor's attitude towards Princess Nanfeng was different.

If the emperor really brought Princess Nanfeng into the harem, wouldn't she have another strong enemy?

Bai Fei couldn't sleep either.

She thought about the same as Concubine Jing.

When the emperor was only a prince, he was very fond of Concubine Xiao.

She alone compared the concubines of the entire Eastern Palace.

Concubine Xiao finally left, and now there is another Princess Nanfeng who looks similar to Concubine Xiao.

One by one, is there any end to this?

Bai Fei felt sour and hated in her heart, the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became.

There are also the six newcomers who have just entered the palace. It stands to reason that the emperor should turn over the sign of one of them tonight.

But until late at night, there was still no news of the flop.

The six newcomers all thought the emperor was asleep, and could only fall asleep full of disappointment.

In the Weiyang Palace, the lights are still on in the bedroom.

Luo Qinghan couldn't sleep.

He was holding a book in his hand, and his eyes stayed on the pages, but his thoughts had already drifted away.

Eunuch Chang reminded cautiously.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time to rest."

Luo Qinghan retracted his thoughts and murmured, "She's back."

Although she looked a lot different from before, he still recognized her at a glance.

That's her, can't be wrong.

In this world, no one would look at him like that again.

Only her.

Eunuch Chang puzzled: "Who is back?"

Luo Qinghan didn't mean to explain, only ordered one sentence.

"Summon the Nanyue mission to enter the palace tomorrow morning."

Eunuch Chang didn't understand why the emperor suddenly mentioned the Nanyue mission, but he didn't ask any more questions, and replied respectfully, "Well."

Luo Qinghan put down the book, stood up, and let the palace people wait for him to change his clothes.

Putting on loose and comfortable bedclothes, he lay on the large bed and recalled the scenes at the dinner party in his mind.

The moment he saw her, he actually wanted to rush up to ask her why she left without saying goodbye in the first place?
