Chu Qi, who was picking fish bones for Jill, paused and glanced up at Long Xuan, feeling that both of them were equally talkative and noisy.
"Xiao Qi, did you drink last night?" Jill asked curiously.
"Yes." Chu Qi responded and put the fish meat with picked fish bones into the plate in front of her, "Eat quickly."
Jill picked it up and took a bite, and couldn't help but wonder, "Is the wine delicious?"
"It doesn't taste good." Chu Qi saw the curiosity in her eyes and was afraid that she would become interested in wine, so he added, "It's very bitter and hard to drink."
Ji'er looked at Long Xuan and others who were drinking happily, and said with some surprise: "If it's so hard to drink, why are they drinking so happily? And my father also likes drinking."
"Their sense of taste is different from others." Chu Qi replied.
"Oh, is it because they can't taste bitterness?" Jill asked again.
"Um."
Long Xuan, Zhao Qian and Chu Yi, who have different tastes from others: "..."
Yaoyao pushed the fish meat on her plate in front of Chu Qi, "Brother Xiao Qi, please help me pick out the fish bones."
Chu Qi glanced at her and summoned Butler Chen, "Help the second princess pick out the fish bones."
"Yes." Butler Chen immediately took clean chopsticks and picked out the fish bones for Yaoyao.
Yaoyao sighed, "Brother Xiao Qi is so kind to one and the other. I am also your guest today."
Lin Qingyuan couldn't help but laugh, looking at Chu Qi lowering her head and carefully picking fish bones for Jill, she suddenly remembered something and asked: "By the way, Chu Qi, I heard that the emperor is planning to grant you a marriage, do you have a girl you like?"
Chu Qi didn't even raise his head, "No."
Lin Qingyuan heard this and said enthusiastically: "What kind of girl do you like? I can help you keep an eye on it."
"No need." Chu Qi noticed that Ji'er's eating movements slowed down after listening to Lin Qingyuan's words, so she frowned and refused coldly.
Lin Qingyuan wanted to say something more, but Long Xuan stopped her and whispered in her ear, "Don't you see that she is unhappy? If you keep talking, you will be kicked out."
When Lin Qingyuan heard this, she stopped angrily.
She just felt that everyone would be neighbors from now on, and seeing that Chu Qi was indeed not too young, she thought of helping Yi Er, but she didn't know that such a topic would be taboo.
"Come on, let's have a drink." Chu Yi saw that the atmosphere on the table had become a little dull, so he immediately picked up his glass and greeted everyone.
This incident is over.
Just when everyone was about to leave, Butler Chen came in and reported to Chu Qizhu: "General, the princess of Southern Xinjiang is here."
Chu Qi frowned and was about to say goodbye when Manli arrived before she could.
"General Chu Qi is so uninteresting, he didn't even invite me for a drink."
This tone of voice was so familiar that people who didn't know him would think they were familiar with each other.
Everyone looked at Chu Qi.
Chu Qi looked at Butler Chen with a gloomy expression.
Steward Chen's scalp was numb. No matter how slow he was, he noticed the general's displeasure. He said with shame, "I neglected my duty and didn't stop..."
Manli soon appeared in everyone's sight.
Hearing Butler Chen's words, he did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he looked at Chu Qi calmly and generously, "The visitor is a guest. Why does General Chu Qi kick us out? Your country is a country of etiquette. If General Chu Qi does this If you do, I might lose the courtesy of your country."
Hearing her confident words, everyone looked down upon her.
Unexpectedly, Princess Manli is beautiful but very thick-skinned.
It's already embarrassing to come uninvited, but you still try to use the state of etiquette to bind the owner here.
