He coughed so hard that it felt like he was going to cough out his internal organs. Shen Yueji pursed her lips as she listened to the sound. Was he doing this because of her?
She didn't know where the courage came from, but she took a step forward and snatched the wine jar from his hand.
He didn't expect her to be so daring.
Mo Wushang didn't react for a moment as his hand was empty.
Seeing the man's expression gradually turn ugly, the dangerous aura around him dropped rapidly.
"Double Happiness!"
"Your Highness!"
Shen Yueji glared at him. "Can't you see that the Regent's wine is gone? Why don't you go get some wine? "
Double Happiness: "…" Huh?
"What are you waiting for? Bring the best wine in the palace to the Regent! "
"Oh, yes yes yes … I'll go get it now, I'll go get it now."
Double Happiness repeatedly agreed, and disappeared like a wisp of smoke.
Only she and Mo Wushang were left in the quiet pavilion.
Shen Yueji pursed her lips and put the wine jar on the stone table. She sat opposite him and looked straight into his cold eyes.
"I heard from Ji Chu that you haven't eaten anything since the late Empress passed away."
“....”
"A normal person would have starved to death if they didn't eat for seven days, like my big brother. Because I entered the palace, I didn't eat or drink for seven days. In the end, I couldn't hold on anymore. My parents ordered people to press my head down and force me to eat a few mouthfuls of hot porridge. With your status as the Regent, no one would dare to do this to you, right? "
"How did you survive until now?"
“....”
After a long silence, Shen Yueji tried to ease the atmosphere. She knew that the man wouldn't pay attention to her.
She continued to say to herself, "The Prince Regent's life is really tough."
"You want me to die?"
"Isn't it good to be alive? Why do you want to die? The Regent is such an outstanding person. If you die, who knows how many people in the world will be happy. "
“....”
He didn't say anything again.
"Why don't you eat something?"
She saw that there were a few plates of snacks on the stone table. In this deserted Diao Yang Palace, it was obviously his subordinates who had placed them for him.
But he didn't move.
She pinched a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth to taste.
"Compared to the desserts I ate in the Perching Phoenix Palace, they taste great."
She felt the man's gaze fall on her body.
Shen Yueji couldn't eat any more after a few.
She looked up at him resentfully. "You're the one who didn't want to eat. I just ate a few more because I was hungry. Why are you looking at me like that?"
Shen Yueji felt embarrassed no matter how thick-skinned she was when he stared at her.
She silently put the pastry that she had secretly taken back into the box.
He muttered, "As a man, can you not be so stingy? I only ate a few of your pastries."
"But speaking of which …"
The man ignored him. Shen Yueji was quiet for a while, then picked up an osmanthus cake and put it in her mouth. She said vaguely: "Yesterday, you went to the palace to find the emperor and asked the emperor to issue an edict saying that you want to drain the water of South Lake. What happened?"
Mo Wushang's eyes were filled with a layer of sharpness, "What does it have to do with you?"
