As they chatted, even without Jin Chuyi's voice, the ministers had already begun urging them to drink. Even though Sima Hong and Liu Yuanheng had two people, they were all drunk to the point where they even had shadows of their own.

Seeing Sima Hong in such a state, Yu Fei was afraid that the alcohol would mislead his, and worry filled his delicate face.

They had agreed upon this afternoon, and Sima Hong was almost drunk on the spot. How could Yu Fei not be anxious when she couldn't even utter a word.

Unfortunately, even Sima Hong was not able to clearly see what she meant.

"Yufei, are your eyes unwell?"

During the banquet, Jin Chuyi's gaze never forgot to look at Zhuang Fei twice, so it was hard to avoid seeing her winking at him. He had long known about her meeting with Sima Hong in the afternoon and knew that the things they had discussed could not be left without those few things, so Jin Chuyi did not mind.

As long as she did not speak of the matter openly, he would naturally choose to turn a blind eye.

"Chenqie!"

"If you are not feeling well, I will allow you to go down and rest."

"Your Majesty!"

She should have known earlier that this Sima Hong didn't really want to help his, it was just that she wasn't willing to give up. And now, Jin Chuyi's tone was cold and hard, his attitude was extremely obvious, he was afraid that he would not give his another chance to speak.

Jin Chuao tightened his grip on the wine cup in his hand. Even though he knew that the chances of matriarch becoming the empress was very small, if he were to see any other woman becoming the empress, he would still feel extremely displeased.

Just as he was about to get up, he heard a familiar voice.

"What?" "Your majesty, are you saying that my sister's eyes aren't good enough?"

Sima Hong stood up while holding the cup of wine, and then walked in Jin Chuyi's direction.

Du Decai wanted to shout for people to stop him, but he was stopped by Jin Chuyi. This was his North Jin's territory, these people should know, if they dared to harm him, none of them could leave this place alive.

Jin Chuyi squinted as he looked at Sima Hong's swaying figure standing in front of the steps.

"Your Majesty, you don't know, that in the past, my Easternum had married the most beautiful woman in the entire North Jin. You do not know, that the men of my Easternum cried for three days and three nights, until they nearly drowned the entire country. I can guarantee that there won't be any problems with my sister's eyes. "

Sima Hong's words had undoubtedly placed Yu Fei in front of everyone. Just looking at Imperial Concubine Yu would be considered beautiful, but compared to Zhuang Fei who was sitting beside her, she instantly felt dull and tasteless.

Jin Chupei just sat at the side and drank some wine. When he thought about how he should have been sitting in the great hall and walking together with the royal father, it should have been his own Queen Mother, but now he had become a different woman.

Now that Sima Hong said this, Jin Chupei also shifted his gaze over. This Sima Hong really dared to say it. He didn't know if he wanted to say how good Jade Concubine was, or if he wanted to say whether there was no Beautiful for him.

Not to mention Yu Fei, even Zhuang Fei did not seem to be comparable to Sun Jinzi at all. Zhuang Fei looked extremely elegant and refined, but Jin Chupei felt that this person had just entered into a new world. He was even deeper than Yu Fei and was much scarier than her.

"Is that so? Then I am truly thankful to Easternum for marrying you like this into my North Jin as my concubine. "

His gaze swept across Yu Fei's face, and when he looked at Sima Hong, there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes.

The ministers of the civil and military officials also chuckled softly.

Yu Fei's face alternated between green and white, she looked really good. She really doubted whether this Sima Hong had come to help her or to harm her.

"That's only natural. First of all, regardless of how I look, I still have the status of a princess and my status is very high. I am not someone that an ordinary woman can compare with."

Sima Hong glanced at Zhuang Fei who was sitting next to Yu Fei with disdain. Only Jin Chuyi would fancy such a weak and delicate girl.

Zhuang Fei's eyes had obviously become sparkling and translucent, and when Jin Chuyi saw this, he knew why she was worried. When he looked at Sima Hong again, his eyes were filled with ferocity.

"Enough, do you really think that our great hall is the territory of your Easternum?"

When he said those words, Sima Hong instantly went into a battle with him. The fury of the Emperor was not something a little duke like him could withstand. Even if Sima Hong knew, Jin Chuyi would not be able to do anything to him. But he himself had no confidence at all.

"Hmph."

Sima Hong let out a cold snort, and stood in the great hall as well, wanting to preserve the only dignity he had.

Looking at this battle, Jin Chuao knew that both sides could not afford to offend the Easternum, and in the future, he might even need to use this Easternum.

"royal father, Uncle doesn't mean that either. Moreover, today is a day of great joy, there is no need to hurt the peace between the two countries. "

He knew that the royal father was old now, and he did not want more wars to break out. Regardless of whether the matriarch could become the Queen or not, he had to sit on this Dragon Throne in the future, and no one could stop him.

Jin Chuyi's expression had indeed eased up a bit. He couldn't bear to see Zhuang Fei suffer any grievances, and he had promised her that he wouldn't break his promise.

"Uncle, don't be angry. You were drunk just now."

Jin Chuao turned around and pushed Sima Hong into his seat, and then picked up a cup of tea from the table, "turned around and pushed Sima Hong into his seat, and picked up a cup of tea from the table," turned around and pushed Sima Hong into his seat.

It was rare for Sima Hong to also find a way down, so he naturally wouldn't reject Qiao Qiao's offer. Otherwise, he would just be at a loss. Moreover, he did not bring many people with him when the banquet was being held today. Even if it were to get out of hand, it would be very unsightly.

Liu Yuanheng did not care about how much they competed against each other. Who was the empress's position, to him, it didn't even have anything to do with him. However, even an outsider like him could see through it. Let's not talk about whether this Zhuang Fei was suitable to be an empress or not. As a foreign princess, Jade Concubine wasn't suitable to be an empress either.

The North Jin's Emperor was not a fool. Letting her become the Empress was equivalent to giving half of the land and rivers to someone else.

"I'm tired, First Prince can take over on my behalf."

Prime Minister Zhong stood up and agreed. Only after taking the job did he know that it was not easy to complete. The imperial court's civil and military officials and Duke of Qian were easy to deal with, but Sima Hong and Liu Yuanheng were not easy to deal with.

He had a way to keep his promises watertight, but this kind of painstaking work was enough to give him a headache.

With the departure of the emperor, the atmosphere in the great hall instantly relaxed a bit. All of the ministers also began to raise their cups in greeting.

Qian Junhao had aged, and did not want to participate in this kind of activity. He pushed aside the third lord who came to toast him, and when he saw that there were still a few ministers walking towards him from behind, Qian Junhao gave him a meaningful glance.

"Milords, I am here to thank everyone on behalf of my father. He is too old for his wine, so I can't accompany him. Qian Yun will do it first as a form of respect."

Qian Yun downed the alcohol, causing the ministers to be helpless: "If that's the case, then we will not be courteous anymore."

Even though they were unwilling, the adults still left.

Duke of Qian was supported by Qian Yun as he walked out of the hall. It had been so many years since he participated in such an event that he couldn't hold on anymore.

Liu Yuanheng nodded to the Duke of Qian in front of him, and watched as they left. His side definitely did not have any way to leave first. These ministers of the North Jin, upon seeing that they were being courteous to them, actually drank their wine without hesitation.

However, it seemed that because he hadn't caused too much trouble in the main hall, the ministers couldn't figure out his temperament at the moment, and there weren't many people who came to drink with him.

Looking at the few princes in front of him, First Prince was currently standing with Sima Hong. Even though First Prince looked ordinary, he was not an incompetent person.

I have long heard that Fourth Prince is very handsome, and seeing him today, he indeed deserves his reputation, but this Fourth Prince is even more extraordinary. Logically speaking, Zhuang Fei should have been his mother, but his mother had been wronged, so he didn't express anything. He wasn't sure if he could keep his composure or what.

He had long heard of this Sixth Prince's reputation. It was no wonder why there were so few people who came to drink with him.

Sensing that someone was looking at him, Jin Chupei's sharp gaze instantly shot over. Seeing that it was Liu Yuanheng, she was slightly startled, but still managed to calm down. He nodded and looked away.

Liu Yuanheng also didn't think that the genuine Sixth Prince would actually greet him. He was very surprised in his heart. Just as he was about to bring a cup of wine to toast him, Sixth Prince stood up.

"Sixth Brother, where are you going?"

Seeing Jin Chupei getting up, Jin Chuxuan also slowly got up, smoothing the wrinkles on his body.

"If you want to return to the manor, you can leave together with me. I'm getting tired of staying here."

Jin Chuao saw what Jin Chupei and Jin Chuxuan were talking about from a distance. Seeing Jin Chupei only turn his head indifferently and did not reply, his heart felt much better.

Although he did not have much help from Jin Chupei, if he were to turn around and help the Fourth Prince, it would bring him some trouble.

When Jin Chupei and Jin Chuxuan passed by, Jin Chuao had still moved his body a little. He then moved his body out.

"Sixth Brother, the weather is cold, the road is far away from dark, it would be better for us to return home earlier."

Jin Chupei paused for a moment, then nodded, "Thank you, royal brother."

After Jin Chupei walked past, Jin Chuxuan slowly caught up. Facing Jin Chuao's threatening gaze, Jin Chuxuan acted like he did not see it at all. He had initially thought that the First Prince had changed a bit, but who would have thought that it would still be so stupid. It truly disappointed him.

Although it was called accompanying leaving the palace, Jin Chuxuan never thought that Jin Chupei would wait for him. Indeed, after exiting the palace, Jin Chupei had already disappeared from sight.

Standing on the jade steps, he surveyed his surroundings. Other than a few palace lamps, he could not see anything else. How could Jin Chupei leave so quickly? This place, he probably still went to the Qingyou Palace.

It seems that even a tough Sixth Prince would care about this.

Regardless of whether it was Jin Chuao or Jin Chuxuan, he was unwilling to go with them. Therefore, when Jin Chupei left the great hall, even if he rushed out of the palace, he could not think of where he was going.

He really wanted to see Sun Jinzi. It was as if he had been poisoned, as though after not seeing him for a single day, his heart would itchy up. But it was already late, and her body reeked of alcohol. If she saw Sun Jinzi, she would definitely be unhappy.

After standing on the palace wall for a while, Jin Chupei's figure quickly disappeared into the night.
