Su Shi was completely drunk.

Hua Jinguan did not lie, his hidden wine was indeed the best immortal drink.

It was soft in the mouth, but had an endless aftertaste.

The three of them drank from early morning until dark, from the banquet hall to the study, and back to the banquet hall, drinking all of Hua Residence’s hidden wine.

By now, Hua Jinguan had laid under the table.

Hua Manlou hugged the table leg with a lewd smile and muttered “Hehe, I will be gentle with you”.

Only Su Shi could barely stand up, but his eyes were also a little confused.

Looking at his messy surroundings, he threw away his empty jug and staggered out of the hall.

“Sir Su.”

“Greetings, Duke Su.”

When the people from the Hua Residence saw him, they bowed in greeting.

The servant said excitedly, “My lord, shall I send you back?”

This was the Duke, the favorite person by Her Majesty’s side, if something went wrong on the way, things would become very troublesome.

Su Shi shook his head and said, “No need, there should be someone outside to pick me up.”

He walked out of the door of the Hua Residence.

The golden palanquin was indeed already parked outside the door, and a eunuch in luxurious clothes greeted him and said, “Sir Duke, Her Majesty has sent me to pick you up.”

Su Shi nodded, “Feng Chaoge is truly wise.”

The eunuch grimaced, as if he did not hear, and bowed his head, “You are drunk, please get into the palanquin.”

Su Shi got onto the palanquin.

The eunuch glanced at the housekeeper.

The servant whispered, “I didn’t hear anything.”

“It’s better if you don’t hear anything.”

The eunuch said in a loud voice, “Raise the palanquin and return to the palace.”

The golden palanquin made its way smoothly to the palace.

The servant stood in place, his legs trembling, his back already drenched in cold sweat.

Su Shi sat on the palanquin seat, the wine quickly surged and he soon fell asleep in a daze.

After an unknown amount of time, a soft call sounded in his ears, “Sir Duke, Sir Duke?”

Su Shi opened his eyes in confusion, only to see that he was somehow out of the palanquin and standing in the center of the palace’s inner courtyard.

The luxuriously dressed eunuch supported him and said with a smile, “Sir Duke, the bedroom is up ahead, we can only escort you here.”

“Have a good rest, Duke Su.”

Su Shi patted his shoulder and walked to the courtyard wall alone.

“My name is not Su ……”

The eunuch laughed bitterly.

This duke really don’t look like a person in the official world at all.

However, this should be the reason why Her Majesty likes him, right?

The eunuch shook his head and turned to leave.

The palace environment was very complex, with one palace being very similar to another.

At this moment, the moon was at the peak of the sky and it was dark in all directions, so Su Shi was somewhat confused, “Which palace did the Holy Empress let me stay in?”

At that moment, he saw a ray of light coming from the front.

“It should be this one.”

Su Shi swayed and walked over.
