Chapter 114: Using this despicable method every year
When the ladies of honor entered the palace, the experienced ones would bring a set of spare clothes with them to prevent the food from getting dirty and being disrespectful to others. The warm room at the back of the palace could be used by the ladies of honor to rest before the banquet and change clothes during the banquet.
Jiang Yuyan walked to the warm room accompanied by the eunuch. As soon as she entered, she smelled a strong incense. Jiang Yuyan's heart was alarmed, and she almost subconsciously put out the incense with the tea on the table.
I saw a wisp of white smoke rising, and the fragrance of the tea blended with the charming aroma, which brought out a lingering and soft aroma.
Jiang Yuyan's body, bones and blood had been transformed by Xue Mei, and she had also taken Lingshu Valley's Wanqing Detoxification Pills. Now she was immune to all poisons, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After changing her clothes, Jiang Yuyan wanted to get up and return to the banquet.
But after taking just two steps, she realized something was wrong.
My limbs felt weak and I felt a little restless. The feeling got worse and worse and I could hardly go on.
She stared at the extinguished incense burner in disbelief and cursed for the first time in her life, "Damn it! They use such despicable methods every year!"
Jiang Yuyan pinched her palms, circulated the Lingshu Valley internal energy method that Chen Yi taught her, and slowly suppressed it a little.
"Hurry, take me out of the palace!" Jiang Yuyan opened the door, panting.
The two eunuchs were surprised to see the beauty's flushed face and loose collar.
"Princess, let me go and invite the Second Prince to you!" said one of the older ones.
"No..." Jiang Yuyan reacted immediately. Whether she was embarrassed or not was another matter, but this was probably directed at Xie Yuan.
If a prince loses his chastity before marriage, he will be criticized by his clan members and will have almost no hope of inheriting the throne.
Furthermore, if the prince wants to marry, the other gentlemen will have to serve as his husband's servants. If the two of them really have an affair, I'm afraid they will have a rift with the General's Mansion from then on.
Killing two birds with one stone!
"Send me out of the palace!" Jiang Yuyan said sternly.
The two eunuchs looked at each other, not daring to disobey, and hurriedly helped Jiang Yuyan out.
As the three of them walked out of the warm room, they heard hurried footsteps not far away.
Jiang Yuyan was startled and her steps became more hurried. She was burning with desire, and if she stayed any longer, she might do something she would regret.
Several people stumbled, Jiang Yuyan's hands and feet were weak, her skin was burning, and she knelt down not long after.
She pushed the two eunuchs away and was about to cry.
She really couldn't care less, so she tried her best to concentrate and drive Meng Ling.
Her beautiful eyes were like mist as she stared at the two eunuchs. "Go, secretly go to the Wu Palace to invite Young Master Xie to come."
The two eunuchs stared blankly for a moment, and said involuntarily: "Yes!"
Nearby is the Changle Palace where she originally lived. At that time, the emperor built this palace very close to the outer courtyard in order to make it convenient for her to accompany him in the imperial study.
The moonlight was barely enough to allow for vision, and Jiang Yuyan held onto the wall and moved toward the palace gate.
But the next second, someone grabbed her palm, and a unique masculine scent hit her in the face.
Jiang Yuyan fell on the man in a daze from the fever. She seemed to hear the man asking her why she was here...
Jiang Yuyan didn't want to hear anything, and hurriedly tried to pull his clothes, but he was so stiff that he held on to his collar and wouldn't let go. She sobbed anxiously, and her tears wet her eyelashes.
In the end, the man seemed to have compromised. He carried her and flew into Changle Palace...
Over there, Qin Shangyu found out that Jiang Yuyan hadn't returned for a long time, so he whispered something to Xie Jingyu. It was inconvenient for the two of them to go in and out of the warm room, so Xie Jingyu hurried to find Xie Yuan. After all, Xie Jingyu was his younger cousin, so it was convenient for him to pass on the message.
Xie Yuan was a little surprised. He didn't understand why Xie Jingyu was so concerned about the princess. However, he did not dare to be careless and hurried to the warm room with two eunuchs.
When Xie Yi saw Xie Yuan leave, a narrow and calculating light flashed in his eyes.
Concubine Jia called him over and whispered, "This princess is from Lingshu Valley. Can this ordinary poison work?"
Xie Yi sneered, "This is not poison, but just an ordinary warm fragrance, which is beneficial to people and has no harm. But this princess is smart and cautious. She doesn't know that this fragrance must not be extinguished with water, otherwise the strength of the warm fragrance will increase tenfold in an instant. I guarantee that she will never leave the warm room. Otherwise, she would not have stayed away for so long."
Concubine Jia looked at Xie Yi approvingly and smiled meaningfully, "My son is really smart. Why don't we ask Madam Gu and other ladies to go see the princess together, to make sure nothing happens..."
Xie Yuan came to the warm room and naturally saw no one. The clothes he had changed out of were still piled messily on the couch, and it looked like he had left in a hurry. He couldn't help but frowned, secretly worried.
Sui immediately ordered the eunuchs to search along the road towards the palace gate.
As soon as he came out of the warm room, he saw from afar Concubine Jia leading a group of ladies walking towards this place in a mighty procession.
First the princess, then himself. Although the palace of Dayue Kingdom is less secretive, it is not unheard of. Since the princess is not here, he will avoid it first.
Xie Yuan understood it almost immediately.
As soon as he arrived, he was chased after.
He snorted coldly and simply returned to the warm room, sitting upright. But he wanted to see what tricks these people were up to.
Sure enough, Concubine Jia yelled to the warm room, "Princess, are you okay? You haven't been back for so long, your mother-in-law must be worried!"
No one responded.
A group of ladies could not help but whisper to each other.
"His Royal Highness Prince Jing also came over just now. They wouldn't..."
Concubine Jia almost laughed out loud. Seeing that beautiful woman throwing herself at him, could Xie Yuan still control herself?
Mrs. Gu was a little sober now, and she couldn't help but worry when she heard this. She knocked on the door and asked, "Princess?"
Concubine Jia was afraid that the man would make some excuses after putting on his clothes, so she quickly said to the two eunuchs, "Open the door quickly, don't let anything happen..."
The two eunuchs responded and pushed open the door of the warm room together, and saw Xie Yuan sitting at the table with neat clothes and a cold face.
Concubine Jia was shocked for a moment, and felt that the development of the matter seemed to be beyond her imagination. "Why are you......"
Xie Yuan snorted coldly, "Is Concubine Jia trying to ask me why I'm not with the princess?"
Concubine Jia laughed awkwardly and said, "No way. The princess hasn't come back yet, so her mother-in-law is anxious!" After saying that, she walked behind the screen. The bedding on the bed was tidy, but there was no trace of that woman.
Madam Gu was not a fool. She also noticed something was wrong and asked hurriedly, "Your Highness, where is the princess?"
"The princess was not able to hold her liquor, so she may have gone back first. I have sent someone to look for her, so Madam Gu, don't worry." Xie Yuan looked at Concubine Jia again, and said with an ambiguous tone, "Your Majesty, I am sorry that you were disappointed that you didn't get to watch the fun this time..."
Mrs. Gu frowned, almost understanding what was going on, and gave Concubine Jia a bad look.
Concubine Jia's plan failed, and she was both unwilling and angry. At this moment, her face twisted and she said, "What are you talking about, Second Prince? What excitement can I see? You should go find the princess quickly, so as not to make the general's mansion anxious."
After saying that, he twisted his waist and walked out of the warm room with the help of the eunuch.
The ladies looked at each other and then dispersed one after another.
Besides, the two eunuchs returned to the banquet and found Xie Jingyu. They were dazed and kept repeating in a low voice: "The princess asked you to go find her secretly."
Xie Jingyu couldn't sit still any longer, so he lowered his voice and asked the eunuch, "Princess, where can I go to find her?"
The two eunuchs seemed to be possessed by demons and kept repeating, "The princess asked you to go find her secretly..."
Xie Jingyu was so angry that smoke came out of his forehead.
The palace is so big, where can he find it?
Qin Shangyu thought about it and reminded him that when Jiang Yuyan was a guest in the palace, she lived in Changle Palace not far from here.
Xie Jingyu asked Qin Shangyu to stay behind to provide cover, and used his Qinggong skills to sneak around to avoid being seen. Finally, he found Jiang Yuyan before Xie Yuan and others found her.
There was no one in Changle Palace, but there was an unusual smell in the inner room. Xie Jingyu's heart tightened, but when he saw her ruddy face, as if she was sleeping, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wanwan~" Xie Jingyu called her softly.
The aphrodisiac fragrance was too exhausting, and it took Jiang Yuyan a long time to wake up.
The memory is broken into pieces and cannot be put together into a complete fragment.
"When did you arrive?" Jiang Yuyan asked with a frown.
Xie Jingyu seemed to realize something, choked, and told the truth: "I just arrived."
Now it was Jiang Yuyan's turn to be so frightened that smoke came out of her forehead.
Without thinking too much, Jiang Yuyan straightened her hair and hurried back to the sedan chair in the general's mansion.
(Da Yue women are noble, and women of the first rank can ride in sedan chairs when entering the palace, and Madam Gu happens to have one.)
Not long after, a eunuch came to report that the princess had drunk too much and had been waiting in the sedan chair. Xie Yuan and Madam Gu breathed a sigh of relief...
