After Zhou Baoyu poured himself another bowl of wine, he put on his heavy bear fur cloak and sat on the stone bench next to Xia Gongming with a melancholy expression.
"Sir, I offer you a bowl of wine."
Xia Gongming immediately picked up the wine bowl and touched it lightly with Zhou Baoyu. He smiled lightly and said, "Thank you, Lord Marquis. I will drink with you together."
Zhou Baoyu put down the wine bowl in his hand, took out the tobacco pouch from his waist, opened the pouch and gestured to Xia Gongming.
"Sir, would you like a pot?"
"Okay, okay, you're welcome, old man."
After Zhou Baoyu lit a pot of dry smoke, he turned his head and looked at the direction where Mr. Liu was leaving, and sighed melancholy.
"My lord."
Xia Gongming immediately covered the fire seal in his hand and looked at Zhou Baoyu with a puzzled expression.
"Master Hou?"
"My lord, let me tell you what I mean, I respect you very much, my lord.
Just...just..."
Xia Gongming looked at Zhou Baoyu who was hesitant to speak, and sighed softly with a complicated expression.
"Oh, Lord Marquis, I understand what you mean.
If the Marquis has anything to say, you might as well say it directly."
Zhou Baoyu nodded slightly and turned to look at Song Qing.
Song Qing noticed Zhou Baoyu's gaze, picked up the wine bowl, took a sip of wine, and nodded to Zhou Baoyu intentionally or unintentionally.
Zhou Baoyu received Song Qing's signal and raised his wine bowl again to signal to Xia Gongming.
"Sir, let's have another drink."
"Master Hou, you're welcome, let's do it."
Xia Gongming put the wine bowl on the stone table and smiled bitterly with a complicated expression.
"Hehehe, King Wuyi, Lord Marquis, I am not a fool, so I naturally understand what you mean.
If you want to scold me, just go ahead and I will never complain a word."
Song Qing put down the wine bowl in his hand and gently took a puff of dry cigarette.
"My lord, raising an army to rebel and killing the king to usurp the throne is a thorn in His Majesty's heart.
Your Majesty could not let go of this thorn for a long time.
Today is the Chinese New Year, a good day for the whole family to be happy.
