Chapter 387 The Last Chance
Five days passed quickly. During these five days, Shangguan Nanfeng stayed in the Second Prince's Mansion and never stepped out of the door once.
It was not until the sixth day that the emperor held a family banquet and summoned Shangguan Nanfeng to the palace.
Since it's a family dinner, Shangguan Nanxing must go.
Shangguan Nanfeng seemed to have thought of something. He walked into the room and took out the things that Fuping had given him in the prison.
A completely emerald green porcelain bottle filled with a highly toxic poison. This was what Fuping gave to Shangguan Nanfeng in the Sky Prison.
She wanted him to poison Su Yue to death as a condition for her to rescue him.
"Haha, Fuping." Shangguan Nanfeng thought of this and forced a smile with a profound meaning on his face.
How naive! Why should this poison be used against Su Yue? Such a good poison should of course be saved for Shangguan Nanxing.
At this time, Shangguan Nanfeng's psychology was completely distorted, and the death of his biological mother, Concubine Hui, became the last straw that broke his inner defenses.
What's more, there was a scene where Concubine Hui threatened Shangguan Nanfeng with death to kill Shangguan Nanxing.
These past few nights, Ye Ye appeared in Shangguan Nanfeng's dreams.
In the past few days, Shangguan Nanfeng collapsed night after night and recovered day after day. Under the constant mental torture, he finally reached the current point of madness.
There were actually not many people at the family dinner in the palace. Although it was called a family dinner, Shangguan Nanxing actually brought Su Yue with him as well.
Before Shangguan Nanfeng arrived, everyone sat at their seats, music played in the air, and dancers danced gracefully on the stage in the middle.
Shangguan Nanxing whispered something in Su Yue's ear, which made Su Yue smile faintly.
Fu Ping on the opposite side was so angry when he saw this that he gritted his teeth.
I clearly went to meet Shangguan Nanxing a few days ago, but when I woke up, he had already returned to the Princess's Mansion.
The servants told her that she was sent back by people from the Prince's Mansion after she fell asleep, but she could not remember anything that had happened before.
She would never believe that she fell asleep at Shangguan Nanxing's place.
She couldn't get enough of looking at Nanxing, so how could she fall asleep?
All this must be Su Yue's plan.
Thinking of this, Fuping looked at the two people who had been talking and laughing in a low voice with resentment. Just wait, she, Fuping, is not so easy to mess with.
"The second prince has arrived." As the eunuch announced loudly, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked towards the door.
Then, Shangguan Nanfeng, dressed in black, appeared from the door.
He looked at everyone present expressionlessly, then walked to his seat and sat down.
The emperor just looked at his second son, making it impossible to tell what he was trying to do.
Even why the emperor held this family banquet was unknown to anyone except the emperor himself.
"It's just a family banquet, so there's no need for so many formalities. Everyone can just be casual." The emperor spoke loudly at this time, looking relaxed.
However, even though the emperor said so, no one dared to be too presumptuous.
Shangguan Nanfeng sat in his seat, looking towards Su Yue and Shangguan Nanxing inconspicuously. He saw their interaction clearly when he came in just now.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Nanfeng stood up and walked to Shangguan Nanxing and Su Yue with a glass of wine.
Shangguan Nanfeng's action made Fu Ping feel nervous.
Could it be that Shangguan Nanfeng wanted to poison Su Yue right now?
"Third brother, I'll toast you a glass." Shangguan Nanfeng said, and drank it in one gulp. Then he turned the glass over and gestured to Shangguan Nanxing.
Shangguan Nanfeng's toast attracted the attention of everyone present. The emperor just watched without saying a word, but in fact his hands had already been clenched nervously.
He specially held this family dinner after he knew that Concubine Hui threatened Shangguan Nanfeng with death.
He was giving his son, Shangguan Nanfeng, one last chance.
