Chapter 147: Fainted In His Arms (2)

Xie Xingyun was a little jealous. “You sure trust her.”

Bai Xianyu did not refute. This place was still quite close to the place where the banquet was set up. “Then it’s a deal, you’re closer to her seat.”

After saying that, she raised her head and drank it.

As soon as she drank it, she did not feel anything at all. It was like an extremely ordinary drop of water, but Bai Xianyu’s body began to sway visibly. She took a few steps out and appeared in front of everyone in a drunken state.

A maidservant saw this and hurriedly came over to support her.

Xie Xingyun stood on the spot for a while. He tilted his head slightly and looked at her rear view. His half-raised eyes were condescending. “…Why do you have to give up what’s near and seek what’s far? I won’t eat you.”

Clearly, the person closest to her here was him.

Bai Xianyu sat in her seat. The officials on both sides looked at her with worry. “Isn’t this wine too strong? How did she become drunk?”

Bai Xianyu was really not conscious at all, but her drunken appearance was really good. She even knew how to smile at others.

The family member was about to say something when the man’s voice came from the right. “Madam Qiao, our Young Marquis wants to change seats with you. I wonder…”

The family member was sitting on Bai Xianyu’s left. When she heard this, she looked at the person who had arrived. It was the Young Marquis of the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor and his subordinates.

She nodded blankly. “Okay.”

Xie Xingyun sat beside Bai Xianyu and looked straight ahead. He asked for tea again, but he glanced over from the corner of his eye from time to time.

At this moment, the banquet was interrupted.

The eunuch’s sharp voice resounded throughout the entire venue. “The Emperor has arrived, Noble Consort An has arrived!”

Everyone stood up and bowed.

Emperor Wu Xuan’s gaze landed on Bai Xianyu, who was the only one who did not bow. He was still suppressing his hidden anger, but the gloominess in his eyes was obvious.

“Step back first. 1 have something to ask!”

The lead dancer bowed with the group of dancers. “Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Where’s Bai Xianyu?!”

Ji Shuang was stunned. She quickly looked at Bai Xianyu, her hand grasping the wine cup tightened.

Bai Xianyu did not move, but the tall man beside her stood up and reached out to help her up. He said calmly, “Your Majesty, she’s drunk.”

Hearing this, Emperor Wu Xuan frowned. “Bring her to the center!”

Xie Xingyun nodded and helped Bai Xianyu to the center of the stage. At this moment, anyone who was not blind could tell how drunk she was. If not for Xie Xingyun’s help, she probably would not even be able to stand steadily.

Emperor Wu Xuan was completely enraged. He shouted, “Li Changning!”

Li Changning trembled and gritted her teeth as she knelt down. “Father, she must be pretending. She was still very sober when 1 saw her just now!”

She did not even drink the tea in question, did she?

How could she be so drunk so quickly!

“Pretend? Can you pretend so well?” Emperor Wu Xuan doted on his daughter to the extreme. Her previous sisters had never enjoyed such treatment from him. It was precisely because he had placed his hopes on her that he was so angry when he saw that scene.

Li Changning insisted that Bai Xianyu was pretending. Ignoring everyone’s reaction, she stood up and rushed towards Bai Xianyu.

She reached out and wanted to slap her.

Xie Xingyun narrowed his eyes slightly and clenched his fingers under his sleeve. A strong wind hit the bend of her leg. Everyone only saw that Li Changning was so angry that she wanted to hit her, but she twisted her foot and fell to the ground.

Someone could not help but laugh.

Noble Consort An glared angrily at that girl, scaring that person so much that she immediately stopped laughing and knelt down in fear.

Emperor Wu Xuan clenched his fists and slapped the dragon throne angrily. “Nonsense! You’re crazy. You’ve disgraced the imperial family!”

This was the first time Li Changning had been scolded like this by Emperor Wu Xuan. Furthermore, it was in front of all the important ministers. Her face was burning like fire, burning until she lost all rationality.

“Father, it was Bai Xianyu who framed me. She’s pretending to be drunk now. She snapped that lock on personally!”

Eldest Princess Jing An frowned impatiently. “Ning’er, do you have a feud with Bai Xianyu? She’s already so drunk, how could she be faking it? How could she frame you? Although I don’t know what happened, she’s swaying like this when she takes two steps. You are so strong, how could you not defeat her?”

Bai Xianyu was a typical delicate beauty. When she was sober, she did not even have much strength, let alone when she was drunk.

Li Changning almost vomited a mouthful of blood. What was having great strength?!

At this moment, Bai Xianyu tilted her head and looked like a drunken little rabbit. She looked particularly harmless, especially in contrast to the ferocious expression on Li Changning’s face..
