After a moment, the eunuch’s sharp voice rang out, “The Emperor has arrived…”

A bright yellow figure appeared in the hall. Jian Qingqing stood up and saluted together with the others. “We pay our respects to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor!”

The Emperor’s hearty voice rang out. “All beloved ministers, rise!”

Jian Qingqing stood up straight and then sat cross-legged on the seat, waiting for the Emperor to speak. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡．𝙤𝒓𝙜

The Emperor laughed and said, “Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I am very happy to be able to gather all my beloved ministers here and have a banquet.

My beloved ministers have worked hard for the past half year. I would like to offer a toast to all my beloved ministers!”

As he spoke, the Emperor raised a cup of wine and drank it all in one gulp.

The ministers also raised their glasses and said. “It’s not hard on us!”

Jian Qingqing was about to drink, but her wrist was grabbed by Ming Zhiyan.

Jian Qingqing looked at him in confusion and asked in a delicate voice, “What’s wrong?

Ming Zhiyan did not say anything, but he reached out his other hand and took the wine glass from her hand.

Jian Qingqing could only watch him take her wine and drink it in one gulp.

After drinking a cup of wine, Ming Zhiyan’s face was slightly red, and his thin lips were wet with a drop of wine.

Jian Qingqing almost drooled as she watched.

“You’re still young,” Ming Zhiyan’s thin lips parted slightly. “Don’t drink. Be a good girl.”

Jian Qingqing’s eyes lit up, and she screamed crazily in her heart. She did not expect Ming Zhiyan to be so attractive after drinking. His voice, which had been moistened by strong alcohol, was slightly different from usual. It had a hoarse magnetism. That ‘good girl’ almost melted her. If Ming Zhiyan asked her for a star in the sky at this time, she might even think of a way to pick one for him, let alone this small request.

Jian Qingqing nodded frantically. “Okay, okay, okay! Whatever you say!’

Ming Zhiyan was speechless.

He did not know why she had suddenly become so obedient, but it was a good thing.

Jian Qingqing stared at his handsome face and poured him a glass of wine.

“Brother Ming, you drink.”

There was a little devil in her heart, and she wanted to see what Ming Zhiyan looked like when he was drunk.

Ming Zhiyan did not know what was wrong with her, but he did not refuse the wine she brought and drank a cup.

However, Jian Qingqing poured another cup. He looked at her with confusion and asked softly, “What’s wrong?

Could it be that he was angry at her for not letting her drink? But it did not look like it.

Jian Qingqing shook her head and said perfunctorily, “It’s nothing. It’s just that this wine would be a waste if I don’t drink it. Anyway, I can’t drink it.

Then, Brother Ming, you drink it for me.”

Ming Zhiyan did not think that was the reason, but he could not figure it out, so he could only take her wine and drink another glass.

The Emperor had just finished saying those words of encouragement when he turned his gaze and saw the two people whispering intimately below. His nephew was even taking Qingqing’s wine and drinking it one cup after another.

The Emperor was speechless. He coughed heavily and said, “Of course, this year there is also an event that concerns the future of the Great Wei Kingdom. That is Princess Ding’an discovered a high yield of grain. After this year, the people of the Great Wei Kingdom will no longer need to go hungry and the soldiers at the border will be able to eat and drink well. This is a joyous event. Does Princess Dingan have anything to say?

For a moment, everyone’s eyes were focused on Jian Qingqing.

Jian Qingging was suddenly called and was stunned for a moment. She did not know why she was suddenly called. She was not listening just now and only cared about making Ming Zhiyan drink the wine. She did not know what the Emperor wanted to ask.

It was rare to see her in a daze. Ming Zhiyan smiled and reminded her in a low voice, “He’s asking you if you have anything you want to say..”
