1467 Those Who Do Not Know Better Might Think They Married Fierce Women
His Majesty took the lead and everyone started to stumble as they drank late into the night.
The corner of Lu Liangwei’s lips twitched as she looked at the empty vats of wine piled up on the ground.
This was truly a group of drunkards.
Even Lu Tingchen, who held his liquor quite well, was a little tipsy. He hugged Chu Jiu and chuckled. “Why do you look so unhappy, Jiu?”
Jiu darted a quick look at him and pushed him away. He was destined to sleep on the floor tonight.
Lu Xue saw the thick disdain in her mother’s eyes and felt worried for her father.
Before her father hugged Chu Jiu again, she quickly took his arm. “You’re drunk, Father. We should hurry home. It’s getting late. Great-grandmother, Grandfather, and Grandmother would be worried.”
Lu Tingchen lowered his head and stared at her little face. He reached out to rub her head and hugged her. “Jiu, when did you turn so small?”
Lu Xue, “…”
Chu Jiu could no longer tolerate this. She pinched his ear and dragged him out.
“Ow, ow. Jiu, be gentle. It hurts…”
Chu Yi and Long Xuan, who were tipsy and dazed, both had chills run down their spines and they quickly sat up straight.
Zhu Yu and Lin Qingyuan sniggered. They ignored the men and walked out with their children.
When Chu Yi and Long Xuan saw this, they chased after their wives while stumbling about.
Lu Liangwei placed her palm to her face. She had a feeling that her big brother, Chu Yi, and the others were about to suffer tonight.
Jiu and the others did not drink, nor did they like men who reeked of alcohol.
Lu Liangwei suddenly heard Long Yang laugh while she was thinking about this. “Lu Tingchen and the others are pretty useless. Those who do not know better might think they married fierce women.”
Lu Liangwei raised an eyebrow as she turned to look at the man seated on the throne.
Everyone had a lot to drink that night and one look at the number of empty wine vats on the ground was enough to tell that even a good drinker like her big brother would get woozy. However, this man did not look like he was even remotely drunk.
She was beginning to suspect that the wine Zhao Qian had brought him had been exchanged for plain water.
However, he did reek of alcohol.
“You’re right. His Majesty is the greatest among all of them. You drink like a fish, as if all this wine is nothing but water. Your Majesty indeed stands out from the others,” Lu Liangwei said sarcastically as she placed another vat of wine on the table. “If that’s the case, Your Majesty should continue enjoying your drink here.” With that, she decided to ignore him and got up to walk down the jade stairs.
Zhan Qing came forward with her fur overcoat. She was about to drape it over Lu Liangwei when the Emperor walked down the jade stairs. She took a few steps back.
Lu Liangwei found this strange and was about to say something when an arm suddenly circled her from behind. She was lifted completely off her feet.
Lu Liangwei let out a scream as the man flung her over his shoulder.
She realized what just happened and began furiously pounding the man’s back.
“Put me down right now, Long Junzhi!”
It was lucky for her that there was no longer anyone in the hall. It would have been embarrassing.
Long Yang pretended not to hear her as he carried her out of Jade Dew Hall.
“I’m going to be mad at you if you don’t put me down right now, Long Yang.” Lu Liangwei was getting angry and she began to say some ‘vicious’ words.
Long Yang held a hand to his forehead. “Which direction is Grand Phoenix Palace?”
Lu Liangwei was taken aback.
“I might be drunk.” Long Yang began to mumble to himself.
Lu Liangwei rolled her eyes. “Don’t think that you can get out of this by pretending to be drunk. Put me down right now and I’ll pretend none of this happened. Otherwise…”
“Otherwise, what?” Long Yang suddenly put her down.
They had already walked out of Jade Dew Palace and there was no fur overcoat covering Lu Liangwei. She could not help trembling when the wind blew.
Long Yang immediately took off his outer robe and put it on her when he saw this.
Lu Liangwei pulled the outer robe tightly around her and was not as stubborn as before. When she saw how thin the shirt he was wearing was, she quickly said, “It’s cold. Let’s hurry up and go back.”
