After a while, there was a "bang bang" sound outside.
The guard's eyelids were almost glued together, but Prince Yun in front of the desk was still staring at the bottle intently, as if he was in a trance.
The guard couldn't help but remind him: "Sir, it's already midnight, it's time to go to bed and rest."
Qi Xingyun raised his hand and waved, "You go down first, I'll sit down for a while."
"yes!"
The guard exited the room and closed the door thoughtfully.
In the room, Qi Xingyun looked at the small bamboo bottle in his hand, and the scene in the restaurant before his eyes reappeared.
He is still stunned. In these days, every time he loses control, he loses his mind and hurts the people around him.
Why didn't Yang Ruoqing get hurt?
Instead, it was because of her comfort that he regained his senses from losing control.
How could she have such great magic power?
This was something he couldn't figure out as he sat here tonight, thinking about it all night.
But one thing he was sure of was that tonight, he felt the most real warmth in more than ten years.
…
Fengzao Palace.
The palace maids came in and out carrying various exquisite dishes and snacks, and everyone's face was beaming with joy.
Today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the Sixth Prince, and the Ninth Princess all came to visit the Queen.
The Empress specially ordered the royal chef in the palace to prepare the favorite dishes of several princes and princesses, who were dining in the palace at the moment.
"Mother, this is your favorite honey yam. I will put it into a bowl for you. Please enjoy it slowly."
A young man in rich clothes used chopsticks to pick up two slices of crystal-white yam, put them into the delicate ivory bowl in front of the lady, and said with a respectful expression.
A loving and peaceful smile appeared on the lady's face, and the golden steps on her bun trembled slightly.
"My mother is very pleased that Ming'er is so filial and considerate."
The lady said humanely, raising her hand slightly, "My mother specially made your favorite rock sugar pumpkin. It is good for your throat. Remember to eat more."
The young man named Ming'er nodded with emotion on his face, picked up a spoon and a small bowl, and scooped up the rock sugar pumpkin to eat.
"Is it delicious?" the lady asked kindly with a smile.
The man nodded, "The rock sugar pumpkin in my mother's harem is the most delicious I have ever tasted. Thank you, my mother!"
"Haha, we mother and son don't have to be so polite. Just eat as much as you like," the lady said humanely.
"Mother, you are partial, so you prepared the food that he likes for your elder brother, but you didn't prepare it for me? I don't accept it!"
A voice as clear and clear as a thrush interrupted.
The speaker was a noble girl sitting under the young man.
Her facial features are very similar to those of the young man. However, compared to the young man's slightly pale face, the girl's face is bright and lively.
The pink lips were curled up, which was really cute.
"Mother, if you continue to be so partial, I won't come over to eat with you next time. I'll just let my eldest brother come over alone. Anyway, your mother and son are very close, so I'm an eyesore here, and I'm jealous looking at you!"
The girl said again.
These tricky words not only did not arouse the people at the table to feel disgusted, but actually made people feel very happy.
The young man raised his hand and stroked the girl's hair, and said kindly: "Jiu Mei, how can you be jealous of big brother?"
"No matter how close the eldest brother is to the queen, the one who loves the most in the hearts of the eldest brother and the queen is you, Jiu Mei!"
Hearing this, the girl raised her lips and smiled: "That's pretty much it, who am I? I'm the ninth princess of Da Qi, the beloved Qi Aoshan! Right Brother Six?"
The girl's "Sixth Brother" finally made someone on the other side of the table feel a little bit more present.
It also made other people's eyes notice that it was not three people having a dinner together, but four people.
"Sixth brother, why do you only focus on eating and drinking by yourself? It's rare for us brothers to come over to spend time with our mother. Don't just eat and drink, but also talk to your mother."
Prince Qi Xingming smiled and said to Qi Xingyun, who was sitting opposite him.
Qi Xingyun put down the chopsticks in his hand and raised his head.
His eyes passed over the three people in front of him.
The ninth princess, Qi Aoshan, was sitting there, chewing on a chicken leg, and the girl's nature was fully revealed.
Prince Qi Xingming sat upright with a faint smile on his pale face, but that smile made Qi Xingyun extremely disgusted.
Instead of facing such a fake smiling face, he would rather look at the sullen Empress Han in the main seat.
If you don't like it, you can take off the mask when there are no outsiders and there is no need to perform.
"Brother, you are our eldest brother. If you speak, the queen mother likes to listen. It is enough that you are the plenipotentiary." Qi Xingyun said calmly.
Qi Xingming twitched his lips and said, "Sixth brother, my eldest brother doesn't want to hear what you are saying."
"We are brothers, and my mother is the mother of all of us. How can we replace this filial piety?"
"If everything can be substituted, then can I also substitute for your eating and drinking? No!" Qi Xingming said.
"So Sixth Brother, when you should take the initiative, don't be too reserved. Big Brother, this is for your own good." He added.
Qi Xingyun glanced at the prude Qi Xingming opposite him, feeling more and more disgusted in his heart.
At this time, Queen Han, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.
"Ming'er, he doesn't have me as a queen in his heart. Dining with me is a kind of torture for him. Why do you need to force him? That's all!" Queen Han said, with a look of disappointment on her face.
Qi Xingming said: "Queen mother, my sixth brother is not such an unfilial and unjust person. It was you who raised our brothers and taught them."
Empress Han waved her hand, "But I am not your biological mother after all. Even if I give out my heart and soul, some people may not appreciate it, hey!"
Qi Xingming said anxiously: "Mother, your kindness is as great as the sky..."
"I'm stuffed."
Qi Xingyun suddenly stood up. He raised his hands and cupped his hands towards Queen Han and Prince Qi Xingming: "Queen mother, brother, please enjoy it slowly. I have something to do in my house, so go first."
"Sixth brother, are you full?" Qi Xingming also stood up and asked with concern on his face.
Qi Xingyun nodded, and then glanced at Qi Aoshan, who was still chewing on the chicken legs, and his eyes softened a little.
"Jiu Mei, come and play at Sixth Brother's house when you have time," he said.
Qi Aoshan narrowed her eyes with a smile and nodded repeatedly.
Qi Xingyun turned around and left the palace without any attachment.
As soon as he left, Queen Han was so angry that she slapped her hand on the table: "You are getting more and more presumptuous!"
"Who does he think he is? Didn't he just win a few battles? What's so big about him? So crazy? Are his wings hardened?"
Queen Han's chest heaved with anger.
Seeing this, Qi Xingming and Qi Aoshan quickly gathered around.
"Mother, please calm down. Your sixth brother has been so unruly and unruly since he was a child. You don't know that? Why bother with him and hurt yourself?"
