Chapter 39 Handkerchiefs
That day when I was alone with Shu Ningyou on the high platform, seeing that Xie Yanzhou was in a gloomy mood, Shu Ningyou took the initiative to ask him what difficulties he had, Xie Yanzhou hesitated for a while, and told all about his troubles.

Shu Ningyou helped him recall one thing, and after some analysis, Xie Yanzhou suddenly discovered that Li Mingji was indispensable in every occasion where Shu Yao was angry with him.

After careful investigation, I'm afraid it was not Shu Yao's original intention to be angry with him, but with this Li Mingji as a hindrance, no matter how much he flattered Shu Yao, Shu Yao would not be able to see his kindness.Right now Shu Yao is bewildered by the beauty, and he is dizzy, no matter how much he does for Shu Yao, it will be thankless, why not start with Li Mingji.

This wine is not ordinary wine, but strong wine soaked in deer blood.Xie Yanzhou didn't plan to drink it himself, this jar was all for Li Mingji.When a person is drunk, his nature will naturally be revealed. He doesn't think Li Mingji can still pretend.

Shu Yao is a superficial person, she only depends on her face to judge people.If Li Mingji showed his true nature and offended her, would Shu Yao still be so tolerant to him?

Seeing that Li Mingji remained silent for a long time, he pulled his lips contemptuously: "Why, don't you dare?"

"It's not that I dare not," Li Mingji said softly, "It's just that I rarely drink alcohol on weekdays, lest I get drunk and lose my temper, and make everyone laugh."

Xie Yanzhou let out a laugh, he really hesitated.This Li Mingji saw how many jokes he made before, how could Xie Yanzhou swallow this breath?This altar of wine has to be poured down for him even if he pours it hard!

"It's just ordinary deer blood wine. If you want to manage the army in front of the palace, you will naturally have occasions to drink and eat meat. This son is just helping you to exercise a little bit," Xie Yanzhou said with a smile, "Li Yuhou, a modest gentleman, probably won't You can't even control your drunken demeanor?"

He is condescending and directly takes drinking to new heights.Naturally, the people around also wanted to please Xie Yanzhou, and they booed one after another:

"That's right, Li Yuhou, it's just a drink, what's there to be afraid of?"

"Now that you're a military officer, Li Yuhou doesn't think you can bend water like a literati?"

Li Mingji seemed helpless, hesitated for a while, and then sighed softly: "In this case, Mingji will try this bar according to what the prince said."

Xie Yanzhou beckoned and ordered someone to fetch a wine glass.

He originally planned to let Li Mingji drink directly at the altar, but he was worried that Li Mingji would sue Shu Yao and annoy Shu Yao.He even prepared the wine glass for Li Mingji, so it's not a trick, right?

The servant holding the wine filled the glass, Xie Yanzhou raised his eyebrows and said, "Li Yuhou, you can drink now."

Li Mingji hummed lightly, and picked up the wine glass.

The young man's eyes are like jade, and even his drinking posture is as elegant as clouds.

Although Xie Yanzhou is the eldest son and grandson of the Xie family, he couldn't learn such manners, and he was often taught by his elders when he was young.Seeing Li Mingji like this, he gritted his teeth, thinking to himself, what's the use of this, what kind of beautiful man Shu Yao can't get?He is currently serving others with color, and after a while Shu Yao gets bored, how can he win back Shu Yao's heart?
Only he, Xie Yanzhou, understood Shu Yao's preferences and was worthy of her family background.Unlike this guard, who can only save face by putting on airs.

After only a few sips, Li Mingji seemed to be a bit outnumbered by the potency of the wine, covering his lips and coughing several times.Xie Yanzhou accidentally found a silk handkerchief wrapped around his palm, such an obvious feminine style...

"Is the prince looking at this?" Noticing Xie Yanzhou's gaze, Li Mingji smiled slightly and spread his palms, "I was injured a little in the afternoon, and the princess took pity on her, and simply bandaged the wound with her silk handkerchief."

Xie Yanzhou hadn't even touched a drop of alcohol, but at this moment he felt his whole body burning like drunk.Sipa is a woman's personal belongings, how could Yaoyao give him such things!

Pointing at the wine glass, he almost gritted his teeth and said: "This son sees Li Yuhou's expression is normal, it seems that the inability to drink is just an excuse. Give it to Li Yuhou again!"

Seeing that Xie Yanzhou was so irritable, the servant's movements were already a bit trembling: "I, I obey..."

He picked up the wine jar and was about to pour wine into the glass when his knuckles suddenly hurt, the servant lost his balance and knocked the wine over to the ground.

"My lord, spare my life! My lord, spare my life!"

The servant's knees gave way, and he lay on the ground, almost bleeding from his head.Xie Yanzhou's heart fell to the bottom, and he cursed: "Idiot!"

"My lord, calm down," Li Mingji said with a gentle smile, "It's difficult to see things at night, and he's not careful."

This is the servant of his Xie family, when is it the turn of Li Mingji, an outsider, to take care of him?
Xie Yanzhou was about to have a fit, but saw the little princess walking towards this side, and shouted coquettishly, "Li Mingji, what are you doing? Why isn't the celebration banquet over yet?"

Behind her stood the prince.

The people around quickly stood up and saluted, explaining:
"Princess, the celebration banquet is over, and Li Yuhou and Xie Shizi are drinking."

drink wine?

Shu Yao frowned, she knew that if Li Mingji didn't show up for such a long time, someone must be making trouble for him, so she snorted coldly and said, "Li Mingji, you are already Du Yuhou, not just Ben The guard of the princess, how can anyone order you? Go back with the princess."

Although the words were addressed to Li Mingji, but she looked at Xie Yanzhou coldly, the implication was already very obvious.

Xie Yanzhou panicked, opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Shu Yao had already stared him back, and could only watch helplessly as she took Li Mingji away.

He kicked the servant who was kneeling on the ground irritably, and strode away.

……

The bonfire gradually extinguished, and there was Shu Yao's tent in front of him. Shu Yao stopped and said to the prince, "Cousin Prince, you can just send it here. Let's rest early."

She thought the celebration banquet was too boring, and Li Mingji couldn't leave, so she had to run outside the camp to have a shower. Who knew that she ran into the prince who also left the banquet halfway.

The prince is gentle and gentle, but his words and deeds seem to be carved out of a mold, and there is a barrier between Shu Yao and Shu Yao, so Shu Yao really can't get close to him.

This reminded her of her aunt, who is now the queen, always smiling gracefully and gracefully, no matter how big things happened, she would never frown, like wearing a mask, Shu Yao I was very afraid of her when I was a child.

Shu Yao learned etiquette well, but it was only because of her vanity that she enjoyed the admiring eyes of those people.Once in front of those close to her, she will reveal her true colors.

"Okay," the crown prince smiled, and inadvertently glanced at Li Mingji, "Li Yuhou also wants to go back to the tent, come with Gu?"

"No need," Shu Yao took over, "Li Mingji is my bodyguard, he will keep watch for me."

The prince froze for a moment, but quickly returned to normal, and smiled softly, "I see, so I won't bother you anymore. It's getting late, and cousin Yaoyao also has a rest earlier."
