Chapter 497: Temptation, principled person (Part 2)
âNo⦠⦠This is the law of the jungle. People eat bears, and the bear eats people. It doesnât matter whether it is cruel or not, but who is stronger.â She cannot accept it, but she wonât stand at the highest point of morality and blame others. After all, she can save one bear, but not two. All she can do was not to do such a thing.
âI knew you were a transparent person, Chujiu. I hated those hypocrites who ate beef, but saying that killing cattle are cruel.â Princess Fushou Zhang suddenly increased her tone, seemingly pointing something.
Lin Chujiu didnât understand Princess Fushou Zhangâs words but didnât try to understand it. She just nodded her head and continued to remain silent. After she finished eating the bear paw meat on her bowl. She didnât touch this dish again.
Like her, Xiao Zian and Prince Wen also didnât touch the dish again. Upon seeing this, Princess Fushou Zhang asked them. Xiao Zian only said that it was too heavy to eat, while Prince Wen said: âWe often go to the mountains to hunt and kill our prey. However, there are two rules. First, eat the prey after it died. Second, not to touch the cubs.â
âYou people are nothing but fake and hypocrite.â Princess Fushou Zhang sneered with disdain.
Prince Wen didnât give in, instead, said with a straight face: âAs a human, you must have a limit. Otherwise, whatâs your difference to a beast.â
*Bang* Princess Fushou Zhangâs face drastically changed and slammed her hand on the table: âAre you scolding me?â
âEldest Imperial Aunt, youâre thinking too much. Iâm just talking about our rules in the army.â Prince Wen chuckled and then became indifferent again.
He just wanted to take this opportunity to tell Lin Chujiu and Xiao Zian that he has a bad side, but he has a limit. No matter how bad he was, he was not worse than Princess Fushou Zhang.
âHmphâ¦â Princess Fushou Zhang snorted coldly. On the other hand, Prince Wen busily picked up his wine cup, stood up, and said: âEldest Imperial Aunt, Iâm wrong. Donât be angry. You know my temperament, I am careless. You adults shouldnât be so hard to me, I will punish myself with three cups.â
*Guruâ¦Guruâ¦* In a blink of an eye, Prince Wen drank three cups of wine.
Princess Fushou Zhang was slightly shocked, but she didnât let things go easily: Itâs good that you know that you are wrong. Today, I set a banquet for Chujiu. Well, you make amends for Chujiu and offer her a toast.â
âGood, goodâ¦â Prince Wen didnât say anything else. He poured himself another cup of wine and said: âImperial Aunt, I said something wrong today. You can punish me, but donât take it to heart. Iâll drink another cup.â
After he said those words, he raised his head and drank the wine. After drinking 4 cups of wine, Prince Wenâs face turned red. It seems that the wine was strong. Lin Chujiu raised her cup and said: âPrince Wen is too polite. I am not angry. Sit down and eat. The dishes will get cold.â
Lin Chujiu softly said and took a sip. Prince Wen didnât say anything, but Princess Fushou Zhang couldnât accept it. She gave Lin Chujiu a serious look. Lin Chujiu was forced to drink a cup.
Lin Chujiuâs face immediately turned red like an apple after drinking a cup of wine. She looked at the people dumbly and say how cute they were.
Seeing this scene, Princess Fushou Zhangâs eyes flashed. She raised her cup and offered Lin Chujiu a toast under the pretense of âapologizingâ, so Lin Chujiu had to drink it.
âOkay, Iâll drink.â Lin Chujiu shook her head and pretended to be sober. Xiao Zian held Lin Chujiuâs hand and said âImperial Aunt, Iâll take it for you.â
âNo, I can drink it.â Lin Chujiu waved her hand and drank the cup of wine, and then⦠â¦
