Xiao Longbao pulled Mu Xuanyi's clothes tightly and hid pitifully behind her.
"I don't want to drink."
What happened last time brought a deep psychological shadow to Xiaolongbao, and he didn’t want to touch such things again.
Feng Yunxian took the initiative to bring the wine glass over: "Let's just take a sip, okay? Xiaolongbao, your mother and I are watching, and nothing will happen."
"Be good, my mother is there for everything." Mu Xuanyi patted her shoulder. In order to prove her true identity, she had to drink this glass of wine.
Xiao Longbao glanced at Bailiyuan hesitantly, then lowered his head and took a sip.
The realgar wine didn't taste good, and Xiao Long Bao frowned almost immediately.
"It's so bitter!"
She pinched her nose and stepped away.
Bailiyuan's eyes fell on her for one second, ten seconds, thirty seconds...
Three minutes passed, and there was no reaction from Xiao Long Bao.
In order to ensure authenticity, Bailiyuan also touched her calf, which did not turn into a tail.
"That's it."
Bailiyuan nodded, and the group took Xiao Long Bao out.
Xiao Long Bao looks the same as before, let alone changed.
"Did she drink?"
The official still didn't believe it, but Xiao Longbao had already taken a step forward.
"Your Majesty, that wine tastes terrible."
She has a little face with a bitter look and her milky breasts make her look particularly cute.
Compared with the hysterical officials next to him who looked disbelieving, he made a decisive decision.
"Father, I just saw her drinking that wine with my own eyes, and there was nothing strange about her body."
Bailiyuan stood up at the right time and spoke for Xiao Long Bao.
The emperor nodded and immediately asked the guards to pull the official down.
Xiao Long Bao was also able to hold the incense and complete the final steps.
Seeing that the sacrificial ceremony came to a perfect conclusion, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The emperor believed this, so the annual sacrificial ceremony was a top priority. If something went wrong one year and something went wrong the next year, the person responsible for holding the sacrificial ceremony would have to be held accountable.
The people here dispersed, and Mu Xuanyi was about to go find Xiao Long Bao when she was stopped by the princess.
"Thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would do." The princess looked at Mu Xuanyi gratefully, as if she wanted to make friends with her.
"It's just casual, you don't have to take it to heart." Mu Xuanyi shook her head, and from the corner of her eye, she could see Feng Yunxian holding Xiao Longbao's hand.
"No, you helped me, so naturally I want to reciprocate. How about I treat you to a meal?" But the princess wanted to thank her in any way. Mu Xuanyi really couldn't refuse, and she didn't want to be with her.
When we were alone together, we took in the sunset beside us.
"I have a good relationship with Xiyang. If you want to treat us, you have to treat us both, or forget it."
Mu Xuanyi originally thought that because of what she said, the other party would definitely not persist anymore, but who knew that the princess started laughing instead.
"I have admired Princess Sunset's name for a long time and wanted to get to know Princess Sunset, but I never had the chance. It would be a great honor to have dinner with Princess Sunset today."
Mu Xuanyi and Xiyang looked at each other and saw deep helplessness in each other's eyes.
Okay, I can't run away now.
"Okay, let's see you later. I'll take my daughter back first."
After agreeing on a restaurant and time for dinner with the princess, Mu Xuanyi couldn't wait to pull Sunset and escape from her.
"Then why is the princess so enthusiastic about people? It's a bit weird."
There wasn't much communication between them, and logically there wouldn't be any conflicts of interest, but the princess's attitude towards them was very strange.
"I don't know either. We often meet in the palace, and she always ignores me, but..." Xiyang glanced at Mu Xuanyi and stopped talking.
The fact that the princess was so attentive today probably had something to do with her.
"Oh, it seems I can't escape. Okay, okay, then I'll go back first and see you later."
All the other ministers had already left, but Feng Yunxian was still waiting for him not far away. Mu Xuanyi was not willing to keep him waiting any longer and hurried over to join him.
When he learned that she was going to have dinner with the princess in the evening, Feng Yunxian frowned slightly: "You'd better keep a distance from that princess and don't get too close."
Mu Xuanyi nodded in agreement: "I think so too."
The name of the mother who maintains the national destiny has already made her extremely stand out. As her wedding day is approaching, she just wants to keep a low profile and has no intention of being in the limelight at this time.
"I heard some news before, let's go, I will tell you slowly on the way."
The situation of this princess in neighboring countries can be called a legend and is talked about by many people, but not many people know about it in their country.
"Because it was widely rumored that this person is likely to marry His Highness the Crown Prince, so His Highness the Crown Prince asked me to find someone to investigate."
Although he knew that Mu Xuanyi would not mind this, Feng Yunxian still took the initiative to explain, for fear that Mu Xuanyi would misunderstand.
Mu Xuanyi nodded and couldn't help but open his mouth when listening to Feng Yunxian's words.
This princess is very evil!
There are 15 princesses in neighboring countries alone, and she is not the most favored among those 15 princesses.
Because of her humble background, many people wanted to make fun of her in order to gain popularity. She never fought or grabbed her, and became a punching bag for many people to tease her for fun.
But it didn't take long for those who bullied him to have accidents.
Disfigurement, disfigurement, marrying someone who is not a good man, being rejected by one's own mother and concubine... these are all common things.
When their country was preparing to select princesses from neighboring countries, only eight of the 15 princesses from neighboring countries were left.
In order to be able to send this evil princess away, the neighboring countries used many good words to describe her, so she was chosen by their emperor.
Many people heard the news and were unwilling to marry this princess. It has been almost three months since she came here and she still hasn't been able to find a decent marriage.
"So what you mean is that you are not so harmless on the surface, but you are quite scheming?"
Mu Xuanyi rolled her eyes. She was very curious about how this princess got away with all the princesses without anyone else noticing.
"It's natural. How many kind-hearted people can there be in the royal family?" Even the prince is not a pure fool.
Feng Yunxian has stayed in the royal family for a long time and knows these things very well.
He didn't want a free and easy woman like Mu Xuanyi to be involved in such a thing.
"Okay, I get it."
Mu Xuanyi nodded, forgot all about his words in a blink of an eye, and happily went to the appointment.
When she arrived, the princess had already changed into regular clothes and had been waiting in the box for a long time.
