Yun Shang didn't expect that emperor Ning would push her out. She was startled. Prince Jing reached out his hand and pinched her palm. Yun Shang gave a little smile, and stood up with the wine glass and pots on the table. She bypassed the short table in front of her and went to the center of the hall. She bowed to Emperor Ning before she raised her glass and looked at the man with a scar on his face, but she couldn't see the expression on his face clearly. "I was reckless. Many soldiers of the state of Xia and the state of Ning were killed on the battlefield. I'll punish myself with three cups of wine to comfort the soldiers in the battlefield. I hope that there will be no war dispute from now on. "
The man looked at her in silence and turned his eyes. Yun Shang knew that he was looking at Prince Jing. She frowned. Then she heard the emperor of the state of Xia said in a voice that was low to hear, "Qingyan, you have got a good wife."
Yun Shang was surprised at Prince Jing's words. It took her a while to realize that the emperor was talking about Prince Jing.
Yun Shang's gaze fell on the emperor of the state of Xia. The emperor raised his hand and said with a smile, "you have balls, Lady Jing."
Yun Shang didn't see the expression on his face clearly. She went blank for a while, and then raised her head to gulp down the wine in the cup. After that, she refilled the glass with two more glasses, and downed the wine in one go. The people cheered for her action. Yun Shang curtsied to Emperor Ning again, with a slight smile on her face. Then she turned back to her seat. She saw Liu Yinfeng across the table, who was shocked and angry.
Maybe he was angry with her cheating him. Yun Shang didn't think too much. She just lowered her head and ate the food in front of her. She thought that this dish was fresh and had no idea what it was made. She had to ask Lord Zheng later.
At this time, a frivolous laughter came, followed by a broken voice of the state of Ning. "I've always heard that Lady Jing is a weak woman, but I didn't expect her to go to war. Can't all the men of the state of Ning fight in the battlefield? What's more strange is that the state of Xia was even beaten by a woman and had no strength to fight back. Haha... "
Yun Shang looked up and saw a dark skinned man talking. He looked fat with disdain in his eyes. From the way he dressed, she knew that he was Prince Cangjue Kangning of the state of Yelang. From the attendant kneeling behind him, she could tell his identity. Yun Shang looked behind him again. She didn't see Hua Jing. She guessed in her mind and knew the answer. Although it was not a big banquet, Hua Jing was now just a concubine, so she couldn't attend.
Seeing emperor Ning's face, Yun Shang picked up the tea cup on the table and smiled. "Your Highness, you look down upon women. Is it because you like men?"
Her words were not gentle, but made the people at the dinner stunned for a second, and they could not help laughing out.
Cangjue Kangning frowned and shouted in a loud voice. Maybe it was because of the words of the state of Yelang, Yun Shang didn't hear what he said clearly. But judging from Prince Jing's bad look, it was not something pleasant.
Prince Jing smiled coldly. Before Yun Shang could see how Prince Jing did it, she heard Cangjue Kangning's sudden scream. Everyone looked at him and saw a small knife on the table in front of him. Because there was a foreign guest, Emperor Ning had specially asked someone to prepare some roast mutton legs. The knife was originally put on the table for the guest to cut meat, but now it was deeply inserted on the table and was still shaking.
While everyone was surprised, Prince Jing's emotionless voice rang up. "I don't like anyone to be disrespectful to my wife. If you dare to talk nonsense again, next time you will be stabbed in the mouth."
Prince Jing's words brought a shiver down Prince Cangjue Kangning's spine. Prince Jing wasn't joking. He was terrified. He wondered why he had forgotten that the woman beside Prince Jing was Princess Ning...
