Perhaps his natural smile is uglier.

Xiao Qingyin secretly cursed.

Halfway through the banquet, a cry of alarm suddenly came from outside the hall: "Marquis Jing'an has fallen into the water! Quick, save him!"

Xiao Qingyin was startled and quickly put down her chopsticks to go out and check.

There was a lotus pond outside the palace, and it was in full bloom at the moment, with the flowers and leaves very lush. Xiao Qingyin could not see the scene in the lake, but she saw Wei Yan being pulled to the lakeside.

She was worried that Wei Yan was drowning, so she went over to check on him and found him flailing his arms and legs wildly, as if he were possessed.

Upon taking his pulse, they discovered he had been given a potent drug. They quickly took out the silver needles they carried with them and used them to unblock his meridians.

Wei Yan regained consciousness after the acupuncture treatment was completed.

"Thanks."

What just happened?

Xiao Qingyin asked.

Just as Wei Yan was about to answer, a pale yellow figure suddenly darted out and rushed towards the lake.

The eunuch who had just rescued Wei Yan reacted quickly and pulled him back.

"Waaaaah!"

The sound of crying rang out.

Everyone was filled with surprise and doubt.

"What's going on? First, the Marquis of Jing'an fell into the water, and now someone is trying to jump into the lake?"

"What's all the fuss about on such a fine day?"

"This seems to be Miss Chang?"

"..."

Amidst the murmurs of the crowd, Wei Teng stepped forward.

"Isn't this my third cousin? What's wrong with you?"

He had a gut feeling that Chang Yu'e's jumping into the lake was related to Wei Yan, and he couldn't wait to see Wei Yan make a fool of himself, so he spoke up without thinking.

Chang Yu'e covered her face and cried, but didn't say a word.

Wei Teng grew anxious and pointed at the maid beside her, saying, "You tell me, what exactly happened? Did someone bully my third cousin?"
