The minister held Shen Ningyuan's shoulders, trying to force Shen Ningyuan to turn around.

But at this moment, a folding fan flew out from Xie Wanzhou's arms.

The folding fan instantly pushed the minister back one meter.

"When will it be your turn to interfere in my affairs?"

When the minister realized what was happening, his face turned pale instantly.

He knelt at Xie Wanzhou's feet with a plop and begged for mercy loudly, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have interfered with your affairs!"

"This won't happen again." Xie Wanzhou said in a light tone.

But the calmer he was, the more panicked the minister became.

Looking at Xie Wanzhou's calm and composed manner, the others were so frightened that they dared not even breathe.

I was afraid that he would suddenly go crazy and draw his sword to kill people indiscriminately.

The minister touched his neck in fear, and his back was covered in cold sweat.

Ji Yunnuo stood on the other side of the hall, looking at this side nervously.

I was afraid that something might happen to Shen Ningyuan.

Sensing the oppressive aura behind him, Shen Ningyuan's heart sank.

Even in a wheelchair, Xie Wanzhou still exudes an oppressive aura that makes people feel breathless.

"Why don't you raise your head? Do you want me to do it myself?"

At this time, Xie Wanzhou's cold voice sounded behind him.

Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan had no choice but to turn around and look at Xie Wanzhou with forced calmness.

Even if she fell into this guy's hands today, she would accept it.

But unexpectedly, after seeing Shen Ningyuan's face clearly, Xie Wanzhou just raised his eyebrows slightly.

Then he waved his hand to signal her to leave, "Forget it, go down!"

Shen Ningyuan paused.

This is... not recognizing her?

Shen Ningyuan turned around suspiciously, holding the wine cup and continued walking towards Ji Zehai's seat.

As long as she put the uncontrollable drug in her hand into Ji Zehai's wine, her mission would be accomplished.

Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan forced herself to suppress the nervousness caused by Xie Wanzhou, holding the wine cup and moving closer to Ji Zehai's seat step by step.

At this time, after what happened just now, Ji Zehai was whispering with the officials beside him.

His eyes occasionally glanced at Xie Wanzhou, with a look of fear and panic in them.

It seems that Ji Zehai is discussing the recent incident with his colleagues.

It was precisely because of this that Ji Zehai did not notice anything unusual about Shen Ningyuan.

After a while, Shen Ningyuan came behind Ji Zehai, bowed slightly, and poured the wine in her hand into Ji Zehai's wine cup.

At the same time, a small pill slipped out of the sleeve and fell accurately into the wine cup.

The small pills dissolve in water and are colorless and tasteless.

Shen Ningyuan spoke softly, and said meaningfully: "Master Ji, I wish you a smooth career and success in everything."

Upon hearing this, Ji Zehai paused.

He glanced at Shen Ningyuan suspiciously, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

This sound...

Why does it look so familiar?

Although he was confused, he couldn't ask any more questions at the palace banquet.

So he picked up the wine cup and continued chatting and laughing with his colleagues beside him.

Shen Ningyuan stood up and walked away, continuing to pour wine for other ministers.

She kept an eye on Ji Zehai's every move until everyone's wine was poured. When Shen Ningyuan turned around, she saw Ji Zehai holding up the wine glass, tilting his head back and drinking it all in one gulp.

Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan curled the corners of his mouth coldly.

After a stick of incense, Ji Zehai will completely lose control.

Shen Ningyuan and Ji Yunnuo looked at each other and walked out of the palace quietly.

The moment she turned her head, Shen Ningyuan noticed that Xie Wanzhou's seat was empty.

Um?

When did this guy go out?

Without thinking too much, Shen Ningyuan quickly walked out of the palace and went to the side hall for changing clothes.

But when he turned the corner, Xie Wanzhou, who was in a wheelchair, blocked his way.

"Thank you for the boat?"

Suddenly startled, Shen Ningyuan didn't react for a moment and subconsciously called out the other person's name.

Xie Wanzhou raised his eyebrows, looked Shen Ningyuan up and down, and asked in a deep voice: "Shen Ningyuan, what are you doing in the men's seat wearing such an ugly eunuch's uniform?"

"What's it to you?" Shen Ningyuan asked rudely.

Xie Wanzhou paused, "I just asked casually, why are you so angry?"

"I have no obligation to satisfy your curiosity."

After Shen Ningyuan finished speaking, he glanced at the hall where the banquet was held behind him, and then set his sights on Xie Wanzhou.

He asked suspiciously, "You left your seat just to squat here for me?"

Xie Wanzhou smiled with his eyes curved, which was considered as his agreement.

Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan continued to ask: "Actually, you have recognized me just now?"

Xie Wanzhou nodded, "I wasn't sure at first glance, but I recognized it at second glance."

After hearing this, Shen Ningyuan subconsciously touched her face.

If even Xie Wanzhou can recognize him, can Ji Zehai recognize him too?

Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan muttered softly: “No wonder…when I poured wine for Ji Zehai just now, the expression on his face was a little unnatural.”

Xie Wanzhou heard this clearly and continued to ask: "Chen Ningyuan, are you doing this today because of Ji Zehai?"

"What's it to you?"

Shen Ningyuan still said the same thing, and her attitude was even worse than before.

"Xie Wanzhou, you're meddling too much."

“…”

Xie Wanzhou was so angry at Shen Ningyuan’s attitude that he laughed.

After taking a deep breath, Xie Wanzhou gritted his teeth and said quietly, "Chen Ningyuan, it's fine for you to call me by my name outside the palace, but you still do this in the palace. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Shen Ningyuan fought back: "If you don't appear in front of me, I won't even have the chance to talk to you, let alone call you by your name."
