Extra episode 2: 17 Have another drink
After the dancers finished their passionate dance, Ayimu stood up and asked to dance.
King and Queen Wusun will naturally not object. Singing and dancing are the correct atmosphere for the banquet.
Ayimu was also wearing fiery red clothes today, covered with tulle, and large areas of snow-white skin on her chest and arms were looming.
The red Uyghur flower hat is inlaid with exquisite and bright gems, and the braids on the head are decorated with various agate beads.
Passionate and noble.
Pasha also likes to wear red clothes and looks fiery and innocent, while Ayimu is more aggressive and domineering with a desire for monopoly.
As the passionate music sounded, Ayimu sang and danced, her charming eyes flying everywhere, attracting almost everyone's attention and couldn't leave her.
However, Jingyang didn't look at her. He lowered his eyes and cut the meat with a dagger, putting the most tender parts on the pasha's plate.
"Thank you!" Pasha smiled, his eyes as clear as autumn water filled with affection.
Jingyang smiled back. Although the smile was not obvious, it was enough to amaze the entire banquet.
Ayimu was so jealous that he even forgot the words when singing.
She turned to Jingyang with a stiff smile, picked up the wine bottle on the table, poured wine into the wine glass, and held it in front of Jingyang with both hands.
"Guests from afar, please drink this glass of farewell wine. I hope you will come back soon and marry our beautiful princess Pasha."
The passion in her eyes was profound, and the content in her eyes disgusted Jingyang.
But in front of so many courtiers of the Wusun Kingdom, it was hard not to give her face as a princess.
He reached for the wine glass and said, "Thank you!"
Ayimu showed a sweet smile, and when his hand touched the wine glass, he moved his hand and touched his hand.
Then, giving him a charming smile, "Please!"
Jingyang didn't want to drink at first, but she acted like she wouldn't leave until he drank, so she had to symbolically bring the wine glass to her lips. In fact, her lips didn't even touch the edge of the glass.
Ayimu's eyes flashed slightly and he said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Yang Wang, in our Wusun Kingdom, you can drink it all in one gulp. You are also the famous God of War Prince, so you can't be such a mother-in-law."
As he said that, he looked at Princess Pasha and said, "Sister, what do you think?"
The pasha pursed his lips and was about to speak for Jingyang when Jingyang held her hand and said softly: "I just drink it, don't make it difficult for me."
What this means is that Ayimu is being aggressive.
Ayimu's face darkened, but he still stared at Jingyang and said softly: "His Royal Highness Yang Wang and his sister are not married yet, and they are so loving. It is really enviable. This glass of wine contains my blessing to you.
Even if His Highness Prince Yang doesn’t want to accept the blessing, he should still give me some face, right?”
Wusun danced and sang toasts at the banquet. This is a traditional custom and there is nothing wrong with it.
On the contrary, if you refuse to toast or don't drink, it will be laughed at and rude.
Jingyang picked up the wine glass, poured it down, then tipped the glass rim down, and said in a cold voice: "Is Princess Ayimu satisfied?"
Ayimu smiled sweetly and reached for the jug, "Your Majesty, King Yang, please have another drink."
Jingyang quickly took the wine pot, filled his own wine glass with wine, handed it to Ayimu with one hand, and said: "It is disrespectful to come back but not to reciprocate, so I also offer a glass to Princess Ayimu."
The glass he used was his wine glass, and there seemed to be some unexplainable meaning in it.
Pasha pursed his lips tightly and looked a little sad.
Jingyang was under the table, holding her hand and squeezing it gently.
Pasha felt unhappy and wanted to withdraw his hand, but he held it tightly.
Ayimu didn't know what the two were doing under the table. He stared deeply at the wine glass and hesitated for a moment.
Jingyang raised his eyebrows slightly, "What? Princess Ayimu is acting like a mother-in-law and won't give me face?"
Ayimu then showed a charming smile, took the wine glass, and took the opportunity to hold Jingyang's hand.
Jingyang quickly pulled his hand back in disgust, feeling the urge to wash his hands.
Ayimu drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and licked the edge of the glass with lingering interest. Jingyang drank from this position just now.
She had endless aftertaste and said pointedly: "Good wine! The taste is particularly fragrant."
As a future sister-in-law, she couldn't seduce her brother-in-law for too long. After saying that, she danced her waist and walked away.
Pasha was a little annoyed and pulled his hand out of Jingyang's hand.
Jingyang laughed and said a few words into Pasha's ear.
Pasha was slightly surprised, glanced at him with concern, and then lowered his eyes, hiding the anger and grievance in his eyes.
A palace maid hurried over, stopped beside the pasha, and whispered: "Princess Pasha, it's not good, Empress Li has fainted! Go and have a look!"
Concubine Li's rank is too low and she is not qualified to participate in a banquet of this scale.
The pasha was startled, stood up and walked out.
Jingyang told the people following the pasha: "Take good care of me!"
The people Jingyang gave to the pasha, whether they were wives or maids, were all secret guards and had been specially trained for fighting in the back house.
Ayimu sipped the milk tea, but with the corner of his eye, he stared at the pasha as he hurried away.
Then he put down his tea cup and watched the performance absentmindedly for a while, then made an excuse and left the banquet hall.
Jingyang and the officials of Wusun State toasted each other and said useless polite words.
"His Royal Highness King Yang, I propose a toast to you!" A young general beside him raised his glass in toast.
This general is called Huo Jia. He is twenty-four or five years old. He has no head wife, but there are a group of women in the back house. He keeps the position of head wife and is waiting to marry the princess and become a relative of the emperor.
The rules of Wusun Kingdom and Daming are different. Daming's consort generally does not come into contact with the center of power. Wusun Kingdom marries a princess, so the consort can still hold power.
However, he had a bad temper, was lustful and cruel, and tortured several concubines to death. Therefore, several princesses of the right age were unwilling to marry him, so that even when he was twenty-five, he still had no real wife.
Jingyang picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "General Hoja, please!"
He is using the pasha's wine glass now. His own wine glass has been used by Ayim, and he doesn't want to touch it again.
Hoja happily raised his head and drank it, and praised: "Good wine, the wine from the palace is better!"
Jingyang picked up the jug on his table and poured wine for Huo Jia, saying: "Come, General Huo Jia, I will give you a drink! You are a young talent from the Wusun Kingdom. I have heard of your name for a long time, so I can give you a drink today."
Changing the lamp is truly a blessing!"
Jingyang was a famous hero all over the world. To be praised by him, Huo Jia was very happy and proud.
After drinking three glasses of wine that Jingyang poured for him, a blush appeared on his face.
At this time, the palace servant who had just come to invite the pasha came in a hurry again and said hurriedly to Jingyang: "His Royal Highness, Princess Pasha, please come quickly!"
