Chapter 823 Long Yang Grunted Very Very Quietly

Was he planning for her to be known as a jealous wife?

Even though it did not bother her to be labeled as such, His Majesty was clearly playing a trick on her, which was what angered her.

She pinched him sneakily on the thigh and only felt slightly better when she saw a twitch of discomfort on his handsome face. Only then did she finally look at Wanyan Luosang and say slowly but steadily, “Princess Wanyan, even though I am able to make the decision on behalf of His Majesty, there is something you might not be aware of. His Majesty never drinks with women and if you really insist on drinking…”

Lu Liangwei paused and looked around her. Her gaze fell upon the Prince of Xiangyang. “I remember that the Prince of Xiangyang holds his liquor very well. He would not object to your toast, Princess Wanyan.”

The hall turned eerily silent after Lu Liangwei was done talking.

Any smart person was able to tell what the Empress meant in her last sentence. She had used the same words Wanyan Luosang had said in response to the Pure Consort.

The Empress was clearly being sarcastic to Wanyan Luosang

Those present in the hall rather enjoyed it. A look of surprise and astonishment flashed in the Pure Consort’s eyes.

She had never expected that the Empress would retaliate against Wanyan Luosang on her behalf.

A sincere smile slowly appeared on the Pure Consort’s lips.

Long Xiao had been enjoying his wine in a carefree manner in his seat. He was slightly stunned at being called out by Lu Liangwei unexpectedly. It took him a moment to react as he raised his wine cup toward the direction of Princess Wanyan, but he did not stand up.

“I’ve heard that the women of Danjue are the best at holding their liquor. I assume Princess Wanyan is no exception and is able to go up against a man. Please accept my toast.” With that, he finished the wine in his cup without waiting for Wanyan Luosang to reply. “You can surely drink, Prince of Xiangyang!” Some officials could not hold themselves back as they cheered for him.

Wanyan Luosang gave Lu Liangwei a thoughtful look.

Lu Liangwei stared right back at her without shying away.

It was a short moment, but the two had just crossed swords for one round. Wanyan Luosang broke away from the stare and raised her cup toward the direction of the Prince of Xiangyang as she threw back her head to empty the cup in one go. She poured another cup of wine for herself as she raised the cup once more, but toward Lu Liangwei this time. “This toast is to the Empress.”

With that, Wanyan Luosang emptied the cup once more.

She did not stop at all while drinking the wine. She guzzled it down as if it was normal water. Once she was done drinking, she returned to her seat.

Lu Liangwei was not really bothered by this and was about to turn away when her gaze caught an especially deep pair of eyes. The owner of those eyes was the pale and slightly sickly-looking Wanyan Jin. Lu Liangwei frowned.

Wanyan Jin suddenly smiled at her.

This took Lu Liangwei by surprise.

One could tell at a glance that this man was not fond of smiling, which was why that sudden smile must have meant something.

Lu Liangwei had been suspicious of his decision of surrendering to Great Shang as it happened quite suddenly. Now that her eyes had met his, she was even more sure of this thought.

What was this man planning by suddenly putting on a show of giving up and offering tribute to the Great Shang?

Long Yang held her hand, and when he noticed she did not seem as tired as before, he asked gently, “You’re no longer feeling tired?”

Lu Liangwei darted him a look and said pointedly, “Are you disappointed, Your Majesty?”

“Why would I be disappointed?” Long Yang raised an eyebrow.

Lu Liangwei snorted gently, “You know very well why that is, Your Majesty.”

“How would I know if you don’t tell me?”

Lu Liangwei rolled her eyes at him.

Who was the one responsible for placing her in a tight spot just now?

Would His Majesty really be happy if she became known as a jealous wife?

She could no longer hold back as she pinched him one more at the waist.

Long Yang grunted very very quietly as his soulfully dark eyes actually teared up while looking at her.

Lu Liangwei was slightly surprised and got slightly worried. She no longer even bothered about whether his grunt was heard by others seated near the high seat.
