Chapter 517 Full of Delusions

Ning Bao felt a bit disgusted. She glanced silently at Leng Bing in the shadows. Leng Bing, receiving a signal from her master, quickly flicked a few grains of powder towards the Third Prince...

The Third Prince, who was lost in his own thoughts, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his eyes and had to rub them to look away.

The third prince rubbed his eyes and looked around at the people. Who had ambushed him?

Unfortunately, he searched for a long time but couldn't find the person who attacked him.

Having grown up in the royal family, he was still very suspicious.

People like them are always the target of attempts to harm them.

Therefore, being careful is the key to longevity.

Consort Liu, who was in a high position, noticed her beloved son's unusual behavior and quietly gave a message to the maid behind her.

The palace maid nodded slightly and came up behind the Third Prince. The Third Prince shook his head and said softly.

"I'm fine. Just tell my mother to be careful; I have a feeling something's off today."

The expected surprise did not occur, which surprised Ning Bao. Just when she thought the wedding banquet was over, Liu Xiulan walked towards her with a wine pot in her hand.

It's here!

Ning Bao raised an eyebrow and quietly took out an antidote pill from her storage talisman and swallowed it.

Ning Bao had just taken the antidote pill when Liu Xiulan walked up to her.

"Princess Ning, Xiu Lan was deeply impressed by your performance today. Would you do me the honor of having a drink with me...?"

“Ningbao..................”

Su Jingshu, Gu Yunrou, Su Yuting, and their group, who were sitting near Ning Bao, looked at Ning Bao with great concern.

They wanted Ningbao not to drink the wine Liu Xiuting offered, but in public, it was just a toast.

If Ning Bao refuses, it won't be long before rumors spread throughout the capital that Princess Ning of the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion doesn't take the Liu family seriously.

Liu Xiulan handed her the wine. Ning Bao wouldn't refuse, but she wouldn't indulge her either. Ning Bao raised an eyebrow.

"If I don't do her the honor, will Miss Liu refuse to drink this glass?"

Of course not!

Liu Xiulan silently replied in her heart.

This glass of wine is the most important step in my aunt and father's plan. If Zhou Wanning doesn't drink this spiked wine, the rest of the show can't proceed.

Before Liu Xiulan could speak, the group of women around her who were flattering her started to speak.

"Zhou Wanning, Xiu Lan is showing you respect by toasting you, don't be ungrateful."

"Ha!" Ning Bao sneered.

“This princess is the proper Princess Ning of the Zhenbei Prince’s Mansion. Does she need Liu Xiulan’s respect?”

Since you think so highly of Liu Xiulan, then you should drink this cup of wine.

The woman was merely the daughter of a fourth-rank official, who usually maintained her position among the noble ladies of the capital by currying favor with Liu Xiulan.

Liu Xiulan had never poured her any wine before, but when she heard Ning Bao say that, she actually considered drinking the wine.

Her eyes flickered, and she was about to reach for the wine glass when she was startled into stopping by a sharp look from Liu Xiulan.

Liu Xiulan suppressed her anger and gave Ning Bao a weak smile.

"Princess Ning, I only wish to befriend you. If you don't want to drink this wine..."

"I'll drink. Miss Liu is toasting me, how can I refuse?" Ning Bao raised her glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Liu Xiulan walked back to her seat with satisfaction.

Ning Bao handed the empty wine glass to Leng Bing, who was invisible. Leng Bing picked up the glass and smelled it.

"Aphrodisiac plus love potion."
