"Don't talk anymore."
“…”
"I hate it when you talk the most." She wrinkled her face, showing her sincerity.
His eyebrows twitched wildly, his back teeth nearly breaking as he lowered his voice to warn, "Xu Wanruo!"
She muttered, "I wish you were mute."
“…”
Not only do you despise him, you also curse him to be dumb?!
His face turned black, but in the end, because they were outside and it was difficult to deal with her, he swallowed his breath.
She asked for her leave from the emperor, and the empress helped her back.
After they walked out of the hall, he planned to pick her up, but she became angry again and pushed him away, refusing to let him hold her.
"I can walk on my own! Don't take advantage of me!"
“…”
Xie Xianyu's temples were throbbing, and his patience was almost exhausted. With only a trace of it left, he gritted his teeth and asked her, "Are you sure you can walk?"
She snorted, opened her eyes, and staggered forward on her own.
Xie Xianyu took another deep breath and followed her.
Unexpectedly, after she took two steps, she bumped into a palace maid who had just hurriedly retreated from the hall. The palace maid was holding a wine tray in her hand, which she immediately dropped to the ground.
Xie Xianyu's expression changed and he hurried forward to support her.
The little maid was so frightened that she fell to her knees with a thud: "Damn this servant! I have offended you, my Lord."
"Are you okay?" Xie Xianyu asked her with a serious face.
She frowned, and he thought she was hurt somewhere, but after checking, there was nothing wrong. The wine jug and wine glass on the plate were empty, and the cup was a golden one, so it didn't break or scratch her.
Wanruo suddenly picked up a wine glass, put it to her nose and sniffed it: "This wine glass seems to be wrong."
"What's wrong?" he asked.
She lowered her voice and whispered in his ear, "It seems to be an aphrodisiac."
His expression changed slightly. This was a celebration banquet hosted by the emperor himself, and someone dared to put drugs in the wine given by the emperor?!
He glanced at the young palace maid kneeling on the ground and kowtowed, and asked sternly, "Which palace are you serving in, you servant? How dare you be so reckless!"
The young maid was still confused and only tried to excuse herself and beg for mercy: "It was my fault. I am a maid serving the Princess Xuan. Please forgive me, my Lord!"
Wanruo shuddered, suddenly sobering up. She stared at Xie Xianyu with wide eyes, "It's bad."
Xie Xianyu turned to look at Qing'an: "Go find Su Yan and tell him that something happened to Chen Qinghan."
The Queen pulled Wanruo past the little palace maid who was still kowtowing and begging for mercy, and strode towards the camp.
Wanruo was very anxious: "What do you want to do with Su Yan?!"
"Then who should we look for? Who do you think would dare to put drugs in the wine given by the emperor?"
Wanruo's face froze, she only had the queen.
It’s not that the queen is really that powerful, but she is the only one in the palace who can easily control Chen Qinghan’s fate and make her speechless even in death.
She came to her senses and stopped walking: "Then we can't ask Su Yan to do it. She was drugged, and he's a man..."
"Stop meddling in other people's business."
"Su Yan is not someone else?!"
"He's not."
-
When Qing'an found Su Yan, he was lying on the grass, counting stars out of boredom.
If he had been promoted, he could have attended the palace banquet that day, but it had nothing to do with him. It would have been the same with or without him, and he was too lazy to join in the fun.
Moreover, he didn't want to see Chen Qinghan. He thought that seeing her in such a miserable state would make him happy and avenge himself, but the situation was even more uncomfortable than seeing her in such a glorious state.
He took a deep breath and closed his eyes, not wanting to think about it anymore.
"Lord Su!" Qing'an came hurriedly.
Su Yan opened his eyelids and glanced at him: "What's the big deal with your master? He is not alone, why would he bother to talk to me?"
"My son said something happened to Princess Xuan."
Su Yan sat up straight from the grass: "What did you say?!"
"The young lady accidentally discovered that there was something wrong with the wine glass that Princess Xuan had passed through. It looked like someone had drugged it..."
Su Yan's face suddenly changed.
At this time, Chen Qinghan was supported by Shaoyao and walked towards his tent.
"Princess, we're almost there."
She was exhausted and her steps were weak. She forced herself to open her eyes, but found that the tent in front of her did not seem to be hers.
"Did we take the wrong way?" She spoke, but her voice was soft.
Shaoyao paused, then smiled and said, "You're not in the wrong place. The princess is drunk and doesn't know the way."
Chen Qinghan wanted to identify it again, but her vision was becoming increasingly blurry. Her body was so weak that she could not stand at all, so she could only let Shaoyao support her and walk inside.
Shaoyao placed her on the couch and said, "Princess, you can't handle the wine, so take a rest and have a good sleep. My daughter will be well this morning, so I'll take my leave now."
Chen Qinghan frowned, his breathing became disordered, and he opened his mouth: "Don't go."
