Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Long Xuan was informed that his Royal Uncle had arrived. He had just reached the coaching inn when he saw Chu Jiu standing like a block of wood outside the courtyard gates. He raised an eyebrow. “What are you standing here for?”

Chu Jiu darted a look at him and did not reply. All she said was, “If you’re here to see His Majesty, you should come by tomorrow.”

Long Xuan took a look at the courtyard and nodded his head in understanding. “That’s right. Royal Uncle and Royal Aunt had just reunited after being separated for so long, they must have a lot to say to each other. I’ll come by tomorrow.”

A look flashed in Chu Jiu’s eyes, but she said nothing.

Long Xuan was about to leave when he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from inside. He paused for a moment before looking at Chu Jiu. “What was that noise?”

“Was there any noise? I didn’t hear anything.” Chu Jiu had her hand on the hilt of her sword, but she looked cold and calm as usual.

“Of course, there was.” Long Xuan was curious. He took another step forward, as if wanting to find out what was the source of the sound.

Chu Jiu was shocked by his move and quickly stopped him, saying urgently, “His Majesty and Her Highness have something they need to do in there. You shouldn’t be interrupting them.”

Long Xuan suddenly realized what it was when he heard this and his handsome face turned red. He replied ‘oh’ awkwardly.

Chu Jiu suddenly felt uncomfortable as well. “You should leave if there’s nothing else from you.”

Long Xuan suddenly gave her a look of pity. “It looks pretty safe here. Do you want to have a drink with me out there?”

Chu Jiu looked warily at him.

Long Xuan paused and rubbed his nose. “What are you thinking? All I want is to get someone to have a drink with me. You’re not my type.”

Chu Jiu was not offended by his words, but rather felt relieved. “I can’t leave this spot. Why don’t you bring the liquor here and we’ll drink on the rooftop.”

Long Xuan’s eyes brightened. “That’s a good idea. Wait for me.”

It was not long before Long Xuan returned with two vats of wine in his hands.

He went to Chu Jiu and tossed a vat at her.

They gripped their vats of wine and went up to the rooftop.

The sky was dark by now and they sat on the roof.

Long Xuan opened the mud seal of the vat and gulped down a mouthful of wine.

Chu Jiu opened up the seal on her vat of wine as well when she saw this. She emulated him and took a mouthful of wine.

The liquor burned as she drank it and Chu Jiu frowned from the discomfort.

She had no idea wine tasted so bad.

Chu Jiu looked at Long Xuan, who was easily gulping down the wine, and the image of a person came to her mind.

He could drink very well too.

Did all men drink so well?

She shook her head and hugged the vat in her arms. She sipped it occasionally just for the sake of it.

Long Xuan laid down on the roof and relaxed slightly. “It feels better now that Royal Uncle is here.”

Chu Jiu understood what he meant and nodded. She replied in an equally relaxed manner, “You’re right.”

Since Her Highness went missing, Chu Jiu had been in a constantly anxious state. Now that His Majesty was here, they could finally be slightly more at ease.

“Let’s toast to that.” Long Xuan lifted his vat of wine and clinked it with Chu Jiu’s. He gulped down another mouthful.

Chu Jiu took another sip.

She was not aware that she could not hold her liquor well.

It was not long before she got drunk and fell unconscious.

Long Xuan had no intention of helping her when he saw the woman next to him lying prone. All he did was shake his head regretfully. “She can’t really drink much.” He continued drinking away.

The next day.

Lu Liangwei slept till noon before waking up.

She ached with pain all over when she got up from bed.

Lu Liangwei looked out the window and saw that it was already bright daylight. It was late in the day anyway, so she continued to laze in bed.

Whatever happened yesterday was like a dream.

She had never expected His Majesty to come to the Yan Kingdom.

However, it felt so real because her entire body was aching. It was a reminder of how a certain Emperor had tormented her in bed the entire night.

Her face went slightly red. It still felt a little hot.

Just as she was remembering what happened in bed last night, she heard a sneeze from outside the window.

“Jiu?” She called out.

“Are you awake, Your Highness?” Chu Jiu’s slightly slurred voice could be heard from outside.
