Li Yu looked at Chu Yanyu in a speechless manner.
These tea cups in the room, because of his body size, Chu Yanyu didn't think it was inappropriate?
In fact, it was not Chu Yanyu's fault. Li Yu's fish form mostly jumped around in King Jing's house, and rarely did so outside. However, King Jing still ordered tea cups to be prepared, which led to misunderstandings. Chu Yanyu thought that King Jing was used to using these cups that were several circles larger than usual.
The brown powder was put into the water and melted away immediately without leaving any trace. Li Yu was worried, wondering what medicine Chu Yanyu had put in.
It shouldn't be arsenic. After all, Chu Yanyu had touched it with his hand, and he intuitively felt that it would not be arsenic.
Even if it was the wrong place, it shouldn't be a problem...
Li Yu tried to convince himself not to worry, but Chu Yanyu had already straightened up and found that tea cups of similar styles were placed all over the room.
Chu Yanyu: "..."
Chu Yanyu finally broke into the room, how could he tolerate any flaws in his plan, and then he put the powder in every tea cup.
Li Yu thought embarrassedly, how much medicine did the little concubine bring?
On the table of King Jing was a huge red lotus tea cup, which was as big as a bowl. Chu Yanyu did not leave it behind, and there was also a glass cup several inches smaller next to the red lotus cup...
Li Yu did not dare to make any noise. Although the concubine did not know, he knew that only the glass cup was used by King Jing. The concubine still used this method.
Chu Yanyu put the medicine in the cup and looked at the last packet of medicine powder in his hand with some fear. There were frequent noises outside the door. Someone was coming. Chu Yanyu no longer hesitated and quickly swallowed the last packet of medicine powder.
Li Yu: !!!
Li Yu was sure that Chu Yanyu did not use poison. If it was poison, there was no need for him to eat it.
What kind of medicine could this be that Chu Yanyu had to take as well...
Li Yu was embarrassed. Gong Tingwen was either poison or aphrodisiac, right?
In the original book, the little concubine who was indifferent to King Jing was actually rushing to give King Jing aphrodisiac, and was even caught by a fish. It was really... shocking!
Chu Yanyu coughed softly a few times, quickly wiped off the remaining powder from the corners of his mouth, smoothed out the wrinkles on his body, grabbed a handful of fish food again, stood in front of the fish tank, and pretended to feed.
King Jing was alone and pushed the door open.
Chu Yanyu pretended to be suddenly aware, put down the fish food, and bowed respectfully, saying, "Your Highness."
Li Yu was in the crystal fish tank behind Chu Yanyu, watching the tall figure approaching step by step.
When thinking about this guy shamelessly confessing to him, Li Yu's heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, and he stepped back unconsciously, clinging to the rockery.
King Jing did not even look at Chu Yanyu who knelt down to pay his respects, but walked straight to the fish tank.
Li Yu: Ah ah ah, the big bastard is really coming!
Li Yu subconsciously wanted to drill into the rockery cave, but suddenly remembered that King Jing did not know that Yu was Master Li, and Master Li was Yu, so what was he afraid of?
Li Yu: No, I can't hide, Yu has nothing to do with it!
By the way, there is also the medicine that Chu Yanyu just gave...
Although Yu has nothing to do with it, should I remind King Jing?
But when King Jing came in, he only looked at Yu, and his dark and deep eyes seemed to see through his layer of fish skin and see through his human heart.
Li Yu felt a chill on his spine when he was stared at. He felt guilty and dodged behind a waterweed near the rockery.
"Your Highness..." Chu Yanyu felt a little aggrieved after kneeling for so long. He was kneeling in front of King Jing, but why did King Jing only look at the fish and not at him?
But at least he knew that he had no status in front of this fish. This also showed that putting his strength on the fish was the right direction.
Chu Yanyu took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I was passing by unintentionally and found that this fish has been hungry for a long time and no one has fed it... I came here rashly, please forgive me."
Chu Yanyu thought that he was beaten last time because he did not understand King Jing's feelings. King Jing should not like others to make their own decisions. So he took a step back and admitted his mistakes to King Jing. In fact, he also pointed out that he was doing it for this fish. As long as he followed King Jing's preferences, King Jing would definitely notice him.
Sure enough, because he mentioned the fish, King Jing glanced at him, just a glance.
But Chu Yanyu knew that King Jing did not chase him out of the house, which meant that he could stay - he felt that he was getting closer and closer to Master Li's position!
King Jing did not let Chu Yanyu out, and Li Yu felt a little awkward, because King Jing usually would not let outsiders in when he was in the house. Was he finally treating the little concubine differently?
... Big bastard!
Li Yu angrily swung his tail and accidentally broke the water grass he used to hide.
Li Yu: "..."
King Jing had very good hearing and even noticed that the water grass was broken. His cold eyes immediately turned to him.
Li Yu immediately rolled up his tail: Oh, if you like, you can do whatever you want!
I have to say it three times, he is just a fish, King Jing can keep whoever he wants, the fish has nothing to do with him!
King Jing looked at the fish for a while and saw that the fish did not swim over, and King Jing did not reach out to annoy the fish.
King Jing walked to the table and sat down. Chu Yanyu estimated that the medicine he had taken was about to take effect, and said to King Jing softly: "Your Highness, let me pour you a cup of tea to moisten your throat."
Li Yu: "..."
Li Yu couldn't help but swim to the wall of the crystal tank. The little concubine was so proactive. In the original book, the main characters,
the top and the bottom, were finally going to have sparks? He should be happy. Maybe King Jing would not think of him when he was with Chu Yanyu...
But knowing that Chu Yanyu had put medicine in all the teacups, should he pretend not to know?
Li Yu hesitated and wavered.
On one side, it was good for him, and on the other side, it was... a big bastard who gave him a headache.
He is not a saint. He can just take care of himself and make choices that are beneficial to him. King Jing and Chu Yanyu are a couple in the original book. He did not give the drug. At most, he just stood by and watched. If he felt guilty, he could reset the system. In this way, he would not feel any guilt and could be a truly happy fish...
There is really no need to be so entangled.
"Your Highness, I don't know which teacup you are using."
Chu Yanyu's obedient voice sounded again.
This Chu Yanyu is very different from the arrogant young man with his back straight at the banquet.
Li Yu's heart sank. Chu Yanyu was asking this deliberately to reduce King Jing's suspicion. He knew Chu Yanyu was about to take action.
King Jing tilted his head slightly, as if to respond.
Big bastard, ignore him!
Li Yu thought in panic in a hurry.
But King Jing would not know the inner thoughts of a fish. His alienated eyes glanced at the glass cup next to the lotus cup.
Chu Yanyu understood, held up the glass cup with both hands, and presented it to King Jing.
He thought about it, and still knelt down obediently. From King Jing's angle, he should be able to see his figure.
Chu Yanyu's face began to heat up. He thought it was because of the effect of the medicine. He had never been so bold to seduce anyone before, so he couldn't help but feel flustered. This was very different from flirting with the guards.
Soon, he will conquer the man in front of him.
"Your Highness, please have some tea."
Chu Yanyu calmed down and advised softly.
King Jing took the cup and stroked the edge with his slender fingers.
Li Yu knew that this was King Jing's habit and he might drink it in the next moment.
Why is King Jing so unvigilant? It was agreed that the tea that the king would drink would be tested with silver needles - well, silver needles might not be able to test aphrodisiacs, but why didn't the eunuch who was supposed to taste the tea for the master in advance show up?
He didn't have time to think about it, King Jing was about to pick up the teacup. At this critical moment, Li Yu felt that he had to do something!
Regardless of who King Jing likes and who he ends up with, he cannot accept using drugs on King Jing. Li Yu's logic is that if Chu Yanyu can make King Jing really like her, he will never stop it, but using drugs - what is the difference between this despicable method and coercion!
He does not accept either!
Chu Yanyu has put drugs in every teacup prepared for the fish. It is impossible for him to jump over with his fish body and knock the cups out of King Jing's hands. If a person touches aphrodisiac, he will be burning with desire. If a fish touches it, it may become a grilled fish.
There is no one else to rely on at the moment, only himself. He can change into a human form and remind King Jing.
Although he is still angry, at this important moment, he still has to distinguish between the important and the urgent and put his temper aside.
Li Yu stole the fish pillow from his personal space, threw it into the crystal fish tank, casually posed, and then chose an angle that Chu Yanyu and King Jing could not see, swam to the edge of the crystal fish tank, and then jumped out.
King Jing seemed to be listening to Chu Yanyu, but in fact he was following the fish out of the corner of his eye. He found that the fish jumped out and landed with a crisp sound. Chu Yanyu was about to look back at the sound, but King Jing, in a hurry, lightly flicked the edge of the cup with his fingertips.
Chu Yanyu was immediately attracted.
"Is there something wrong, Your Highness?"
Chu Yanyu was anxious as to why King Jing didn't drink the water with added ingredients.
King Jing smiled, picked up the cup, and unhurriedly brought it to his lips. Chu Yanyu looked at him expectantly. King Jing looked past Chu Yanyu and saw that the fish immediately propped up the ground with its tail after landing, circled a graceful arc, and slipped behind the cabinet.
King Jing discovered for the first time that the carp spirit's tail could be used in this way: "..."
King Jing was distracted for a moment, and then glanced at the fish tank secretly. He was worried that Chu Yanyu would find that the fish in the fish tank was gone. Just as he was about to distract Chu Yanyu, he saw a silver fish in the huge crystal fish tank, with its head facing down, knocking on the stone bed in a weird way, motionless.
King Jing: "…………"
King Jing had seen fake fish that looked exactly like the carp spirit before, and he was sure that this was also fake, because the real one had just jumped out.
It could be the clone technique... Prince Jing, who had some knowledge of
cultivating immortals, rubbed his eyebrows. This way, he didn't have to worry about Chu Yanyu finding out. Prince Jing picked up the cup again, estimating the speed of the humanoid fish. The fish was faster than he thought, and soon jumped out, shouting: "Your Highness, you can't drink this water!"
It finally came. Prince Jing pursed his lips and put the cup aside.
Chu Yanyu was startled by the boy who suddenly appeared, and his fingernails dug deeply into his palm.
The young man who was doing trouble was dressed in green, with white teeth and bright eyes, and a slender figure. He was the young master Li who was said to have run away from the mansion.
Chu Yanyu frowned, feeling annoyed. Young master Li had already left, so why did he come back? Was he unhappy that his status was threatened and wanted to tear him down?
Could it be that Master Li had discovered that he had put drugs in the tea?
This was impossible. Chu Yanyu knew very well that he was the only one in the room when the drugs were put in.
"What do you mean? Why can't you drink it?"
Chu Yanyu questioned angrily. Anyway, the drugs had been put in. If he hesitated for a moment, King Jing would be suspicious!
Li Yu didn't care too much. He walked forward, grabbed King Jing's sleeve and said loudly: "Your Highness, you can't drink this water. The water is drugged!"
Chu Yanyu looked at Li Yu in surprise. As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xi led a group of guards in.
Li Yu was stunned, and in a moment, King Jing held his hand tightly. King Jing nodded to Wang Xi, and Wang Xi immediately ordered the guards to come forward and grab Chu Yanyu.
Chu Yanyu still held on to a glimmer of hope, and kept struggling, "Your Highness, I didn't, you can't just listen to Master Li's one-sided words!"
Chu Yanyu tried to calm down, but when he found that Wang Xi had taken away all the teacups in the room, he realized something was wrong. How did Eunuch Wang know that he had tampered with all the teacups?
And the medicine he had taken in advance, Chu Yanyu looked at his legs that couldn't control the trembling, this was what made him most desperate.
What will be waiting for him?
Anyway, it is definitely not what he wants, the trust and favor of King Jing.
Wang Xi took the demonic Chu Yanyu away like a gust of wind, leaving King Jing and Li Yu in the room. Eunuch Wang knew that His Highness must have a lot of things in his mind that he wanted to let Master Li know, so he considerately even closed the door for the two of them.
Mr. Li is angry. These days, His Highness and him are having a hard time. Wang Xi sincerely hopes that Mr. Li can change his mind as soon as possible.
The door closed again, and the room returned to calm. Li Yu looked at King Jing coldly.
King Jing's joy was beyond words and he immediately came to hug him. Li Yu raised his palm to knock off King Jing's outstretched hand and said coldly: "Did His Highness already know that Chu Yanyu would drug him?"
All the situations just now were very strange. He was confused because of his concern. He should have guessed it a long time ago.
King Jing hesitated and nodded.
Chu Yanyu had been on King Jing's special alert list since he misunderstood King Jing last time. King Jing knew about it when he got into trouble this time, otherwise how could it be so easy for an outsider to sneak into the inner courtyard?
The aphrodisiac that Chu Yanyu had used all his skills to get was replaced by bean powder by King Jing. He had also confirmed that Chu Yanyu did not have any sharp weapons and would not do anything to Yu, otherwise King Jing would not let Chu Yanyu into the house so easily. He did not care who was behind Chu Yanyu, he just wanted to use Chu Yanyu's hand to force the human-shaped Xiaoyu out.
The ancients said that a day without seeing is like three years apart. He did not believe it before, but now he knows the taste of it. Xiaoyu has not been close to him and has been avoiding him these days. King Jing has a dark feeling in his heart, and he may do something crazy, let alone just using an unnecessary pawn.
He wrote on the wall what he wanted to say to Xiaoyu, but Xiaoyu still didn't show up. He was afraid that Xiaoyu would hide from him for the rest of her life, so he had to resort to this last resort.
Chu Yanyu was scheming in front of Xiaoyu. He bet that Xiaoyu still couldn't bear to leave him and would definitely show up to see him. Then... he would be able to let Xiaoyu know his feelings in person.
This plan was indeed very risky, but he had an almost blind trust in Xiaoyu. Fortunately, he won the bet and finally saw Xiaoyu in human form as he wished. King Jing was very happy and his anger had mostly disappeared.
But when Xiaoyu confirmed that he had known about it, her face turned pale and white. King Jing intuitively felt that Xiaoyu was not very happy again.
The young man in front of him lowered his head, wiped his face, and said bitterly: "You are lying to me again..."
Li Yu had to transform in order to save King Jing, and he didn't want King Jing to be hurt, but he knew that this was all King Jing's plan, probably to force him to show up. After being humiliated and deceived one after another, Li Yu's reason has not yet recovered. At this time, his anger reached its peak because of King Jing's deception.
"I hate it most when people lie to me!"
