The next day, a large banquet was held in the palace.
This banquet was to celebrate the great victory of the Kingdom of Leon in the Guarding War, so Yingxue, who led the troops, was the protagonist of the entire banquet.
He was wearing a decent uniform, and young aristocratic girls kept appearing in front of him intentionally or unintentionally, with glaring eyes.
As the queen in power, Sheng Nuan had to toast the victorious soldiers, so she had to drink one.
Knowing her drinking capacity, she did not stay in the banquet hall any longer, but chose to go back to her palace.
When she reached a deserted garden, she felt dizzy and didn't want to move. She simply sat on a chair in the corner of the garden and blew in the night breeze to sober up.
Spring is coming to an end, and the chill in the night wind has subsided, leaving it just slightly cool and carrying the fragrance of flowers, which is very pleasant.
Sheng Nuan sent Sophie back to get the hangover soup, and she lay here to blow the air.
Not long after I closed my eyes, I heard footsteps not far away, and then the worried voice of a young man: "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
It's Snow.
On the other side, Yingxue in the banquet hall also discovered that Queen Ivy had left early... Many people knew very well that the queen and the prince were not dealing with each other now, so it was normal for them not to stay longer.
But Yingxue noticed that the little queen was a little hasty when she left. After quickly dealing with the people around him, he found an excuse to walk out of the banquet hall, and then walked all the way to the queen's palace.
He was worried that she was not feeling well.
But just as he was passing by the rose bush, he suddenly heard something.
Yingxue paused slightly, turned around and walked to the other side of the flowers. As soon as she walked around the flowers, she saw the little queen Ivy leaning on the garden bench, and half-kneeling at her feet was Snow.
At this moment, Snow was half-kneeling at Ivy's feet and looking up at her with burning eyes.
"Your Majesty the Queen, if you want to find someone to serve you, please don't find someone else... I am willing to serve you and will never betray you."
Sheng Nuan felt dizzy and kicked him: "I'm a little dizzy now. I can't hear what you said clearly. I want to see if Sophie is back."
Snow didn't move.
He saw the hazy drunkenness in Queen Ivy's eyes, and a terrible thought suddenly came to his mind.
She was drunk.
Snow knew that his thoughts were shameful, but at this moment, the always upright young man could not contain the desire in his heart no matter what.
Ever since he learned that noble boys were sent to the palace from time to time to accompany Queen Ivy, Snow's desire and jealousy began to surge in his heart.
Those who will be sent to the palace are all defeated nobles. No one dares to put their ideas on his head, but no one knows that he hopes to enter the palace more than anyone else and be by her side.
Seeing her, all his ambitions, reputation and honors seemed to become inconsequential. There was only one desire left in his heart, and that was to be close to her.
This haunts him more than any glory...
Looking at Queen Ivy who was leaning on the bench with her head propped up and her eyes closed to rest, Snow held his breath and cautiously approached.
"Your Majesty the Queen, please look at me. I am willing to stay with you, even if I don't have any honor or status... I love you more than anyone else."
His voice was a little trembling, but his movements were very firm. He came closer firmly, tremblingly wanting to kiss those bright red lips...
But at this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind.
"Mother."
It's Yingxue.
Snow stood up in excitement, her heart almost beating out of her chest. When she turned around, she saw Yingxue walking from behind with an expressionless face.
"What are you doing?" Yingxue's eyes were not warm at all.
Snow said in a panic: "I, I saw that Her Majesty the Queen seemed drunk, and I wanted to send her back."
"No need, I'll just take care of her."
Yingxue's eyes had always been cold and disgusting towards him, but at this moment, Snow felt something like murderous intent in his eyes for no reason.
Snow was dazed for a moment. Now that he thought about what he had just done, he felt a little scared and did not dare to stay any longer. He turned around and left directly.
But even if he leaves, the gloomy sight behind him is still like a gleam on his back.
When Snow disappeared, Yingxue walked up to the drunken little queen without saying a word.
"Queen mother..."
He half-knelt down and looked at the drunken-eyed woman without blinking. The corners of his lips were tense. He raised his hand and ran his fingertips over the corners of her lips.
Snow didn't touch her, but even if she just thought about that damn guy being rebellious and coveting her, Yingxue wanted to kill him immediately!
That guy should have died a long time ago!
No one can try to take her away, no one!
When he was on the battlefield, he escaped death several times, and when he was almost unable to hold on any longer, whenever he thought of her, he seemed to have infinite courage and strength.
He looks forward to returning to the royal city every day, to return to her... to see her, to be close to her...
"Mother."
Yingxue murmured softly.
The drunken man slowly opened his eyes, his eyes still a little hazy.
"Snow?"
Sheng Nuan was confused and confused. Wasn't it Snow who was squatting in front of her? How could he suddenly turn into Yingxue?
She was indeed very drunk, and no one else had such a drinking capacity.
However, Sheng Nuan didn't know how much impact her drunken and soft voice calling out another person's name would have on Yingxue in front of her.
The young man looked at her with extremely deep eyes: "Snow? Does the Queen Mother value him so much?"
Yingxue approached little by little, her voice low: "Lawrence can do it, Snow can do it...anyone can do it, right?"
He was so close that he could even smell the floral scent of wine on the little queen's breath.
Yingxue's Adam's apple moved and suddenly lost control...
He tilted his head and kissed the bright red lips. The moment of contact, the extreme throbbing and stimulation made him feel as if his scalp was numb.
He knows that his behavior is immoral and even unethical...but he is a madman, isn't he?
He was already crazy before he even realized it.
Maybe it was the time he held her in his arms in the library...or maybe it was hugging her in the snow...
He once tried to deceive himself. It was because of her love for him that he wanted to be close to her and dependent on her. He wanted to respect and love her as a stepmother.
But in the illusion of the Mirror God, he could no longer deceive himself.
He knew exactly how crazy he was in the fantasy and how bad he was doing to her.
It's nothing, everything is just an excuse, the only truth is... he wants to have her.
The kind of desire a man has for a woman from his bones and soul, wanting her to belong to him alone...
Sheng Nuan thought she was dreaming again.
She was filled with contempt for herself and subconsciously wanted to push people away.
As soon as the irresistible movement appeared, her wrist was grabbed by a cold hand with sharp bones... She was imprisoned in a position where she had to get what she wanted, and was forced to endure the cold and powerful plunder...
After a while, Yingxue stopped. He was breathing heavily and forced himself to look away, otherwise he didn't know what else he would do.
Gathering the little queen's cloak, he directly picked her up and walked to her palace.
As soon as she walked out of the rose bush, she saw Ivy's personal maid Sophie walking hurriedly from the opposite side.
Seeing Yingxue hugging the queen, she froze slightly and subconsciously wanted to step forward: "Your Highness, I will do it."
But before she could finish her words, Yingxue gave her a cold look and turned her back.
The poor maid dared not make a sound anymore and could only follow behind silently, watching the young crown prince carrying his queen back to the palace...
