Chapter 68 Lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot
Xie Yunyu said, "Seventh Sister, you seem perfectly normal now, why are you going to cause trouble for her?"
If Lady Wei starts crying and making a scene again, everyone will think you've bullied her.
Then you'll suffer a loss in silence, and you won't be able to explain yourself even if you're in the right.
Qin Yingying thought about it and agreed, so she subconsciously said:
"Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Seventh Lady, please forgive me. The reason I've been keeping an eye on Wei Ningyan today is because I received information that she and the First Prince have joined forces to plot against Xue Jiu Niangzi."
But at the banquet, I noticed her strange expression, as if there was something else going on.
I followed you two to the backyard and rescued you there.
I then realized that she had killed two birds with one stone, intending to eliminate both the First Prince and Lady Xue at today's banquet.
"And I'll take care of you while I'm at it."
Qin Yingying was stunned, then stammered:
"Then... what do we do now?"
Xie Yunyu said calmly, "Then let's play along."
"She doesn't want to marry the eldest prince, does she? Then let's take this opportunity to solidify the matter and leave her with no way to defend herself."
Qin Yingying became interested upon hearing this, and her eyes lit up.
"Go ahead and say it, I'll listen to you."
Xie Yunyu beckoned to Qin Yingying and said, "Come closer."
Qin Yingying came over, and Xie Yunyu and the other two plotted something by the bushes.
Finally, Qin Yingying was very excited and volunteered to personally escort Wei Ningyan into the room.
No sooner had he finished speaking than he saw his maid walking towards him from a distance.
So she beckoned to her, and the maid followed her to the back.
The two arrived at the place where they had just argued and, sure enough, saw Wei Ningyan and her maid still unconscious on the ground.
He then instructed his maids to each take one person and drag them into a room not far ahead, where the door was carved with twin flowers.
Qin Yingying threw Wei Ningyan onto the couch.
He then undressed her, leaving her only in a bra and panties, before draping the blanket halfway over her waist, revealing a large expanse of her fair skin.
He covered his nose again, took out the sleeping pills from Wei Ningyan's body, and placed them under her nose.
He then put the small bottle away and stuffed it into Wei Ningyan's clothes.
Then, he came out with his maid and hid in the bushes not far away, keeping a close eye on the door of Wei Ningyan's room.
After Xie Yunyu made arrangements for Qin Yingying, she took Shan Xi and headed towards Xue Weiyang's side.
Halfway there, Wu Yumin came back with Xue Weiyang, who looked dazed and dull.
Wu Yumin was sweating profusely with anxiety, and she was almost in tears when she saw Xie Yunyu.
"Sister Xie, I don't know what happened to Weiyang, she suddenly became like this, and I can't wake her up no matter what I do."
Xie Yunyu went over to take a look and found that her condition was exactly the same as Qin Yingying's.
Shan Xi also stepped forward to help her young mistress up, and after checking her over, said:
"It's nothing, just a common drug used in the underworld to seduce people. Just wash your face with some water and you'll be fine."
Wu Yumin felt relieved after hearing this.
"Tell me what happened quickly?" Xie Yunyu urged.
Wu Yumin quickly said, "I followed and saw the maid leading Weiyang toward the back."
Just as she was about to chase after her, the maid suddenly stopped and said something to Wei Yang. Wei Yang then turned around and was about to come back.
The maid followed from behind, patted Wei Yang on the shoulder, and then waved her handkerchief under Wei Yang's nose.
Then Wei Yang stood still, and the maid came forward, took her hand, and led her to the back.
Seeing that something was wrong, I quickly stepped forward to catch up with them.
Upon seeing us, the maid quickly let go and prepared to slip away.
Remembering your instructions, I had Feng Qi seize the maid.
After speaking, she pointed to Feng Qi, another of Xue Weiyang's maids behind her. Sure enough, Feng Qi was carrying an unconscious person in her hand.
It was none other than the maid who had just come to invite Xue Weiyang to see the princess.
"Use her handkerchief to knock her unconscious, tie her up, and throw her into the artificial cave over there," Xie Yunyu ordered.
Feng Qi obeyed the order and dragged the maid away.
Xie Yunyu stepped forward to support Xue Weiyang, her gaze slightly cold as she spoke to Shan Xi:
"Go, follow the plan, and lead the people over there."
Shan Xi nodded and turned to walk towards the back.
Xie Yunyu and Wu Yumin, one on each side, brought Xue Weiyang back to the main hall and fetched a basin of water for Xue Weiyang to wash her face.
When she woke up and heard their description, she was furious.
Despite all precautions, no one expected Wei Ningyan to resort to such despicable methods.
"So what do we do now?" Xue Weiyang asked.
"Of course, I'm going to join the main group to watch the show," Xie Yunyu said sarcastically.
Then, looking at Wu Yumin's maid, Hua Ling, he said:
"Go find Zhang Jin's maid and loudly tell her that you saw Qin Qiniangzi bullying Wei Niangzi. Tell her to bring more people to take a look."
Hua Ling laughed when she heard this; she loved doing this kind of work the most.
She turned around and ran to Zhang Jin's maid with a panicked expression:
"Oh no! Oh no! Qin Qin Niangzi is fighting with Wei Niangzi in the back!"
Qin Qiniangzi had already pushed Wei Niangzi to the ground.
Lady Wei sent me to fetch some people; you...you all should go and take a look.
As he spoke, he pointed to the path leading towards the bamboo forest.
Sure enough, Zhang Jin said indignantly, "Seventh Sister Qin has really gone too far."
Then he called to the people around him, "Let's go take a look."
Xie Yunyu, Wu Yumin, and Xue Weiyang saw a large group of people heading towards the backyard.
He then followed from behind at a leisurely pace.
When Shanxi walked to the back, she indeed saw the First Prince's men looking around.
She walked over and said directly, "This servant is Wei Erniangzi's maid."
My wife said that the man was on guard today and wouldn't come this way.
My wife had no choice but to arrange for him to stay in the house in the west courtyard, the one facing the garden.
The doorway to the room is carved with twin flowers; it's very eye-catching, you'll see it when you get there.
The guard at the door nodded, turned around and went inside to relay the message to the eldest prince.
Upon hearing this, the eldest prince did not suspect anything. Thinking that the other side was the backyard, he went alone to the west courtyard.
Qin Yingying spotted the Crown Prince from afar and quickly pulled her maid into the flower bushes.
They watched as the eldest prince entered the room.
Just then, Qin Yingying heard a large group of people coming from another direction.
Once the person approached, he revealed himself, ran towards the room, and pushed the door open.
After seeing the eldest prince clearly inside, he let out a thunderous scream.
"ah……"
Just then, a group of noble ladies arrived at the door. Hearing the screams from inside, Zhang Jin rushed in.
Then, a large group of people blocked the entrance.
After seeing the eldest prince inside and the woman on the bed clearly, everyone was astonished.
"Who...who is that woman?" someone asked in a low voice.
The eldest prince had just entered when he saw a person lying on the bed, with their back to the door, exposing a large expanse of smooth back, and black hair spread like clouds on the pillow.
She walked slowly to the bedside, and just as she placed her hand on the smooth shoulder, before she could even see the person's face clearly, the door was kicked open from the outside.
Then Qin Yingying appeared and let out a piercing scream.
He was about to put down the blanket to cover the person on the bed, but then he remembered that he had to make things clear today, so he took the opportunity to completely pull the blanket off.
At this moment, everyone could see the person lying on the bed, her beautiful, fair back exposed to the air, with a pink rope loosely tied in the middle.
The scene was alluring and enchanting; it was obvious what they were doing.
Upon hearing the question, the eldest prince awkwardly placed his hand under his nose and said tactfully:
"My feelings for Ninth Sister Xue are genuine, please forgive my foolishness."
Upon hearing that the person on the bed was Xue Weiyang, everyone exclaimed in surprise.
At this moment, a clear voice came from outside:
"If the person inside is Xue Jiu Niangzi, then who am I?"
Everyone turned to look when they heard the sound.
"Oh? Isn't this Lady Xue Jiu?"
Who is that on the couch?
"Is the Crown Prince mistaken?"
Puzzled, the crowd parted to make way for Xue Weiyang to enter.
The eldest prince was stunned when he saw Xue Weiyang standing at the door.
