Qin Wang raised his foot and kicked Ze Kun away with a powerful kick.
Zekun lay on the ground, clutching his chest, too afraid to make a sound.
Seeing this, Wei Yingshuang trembled even more violently, her eyes reddening.
"Your Highness, please let me explain. That's not the truth. Someone drugged me, that's why I'm like this. Your Highness, someone is trying to harm me!"
Qin Wang slowly squatted down, lifted Wei Yinshuang's chin, and made her look directly into his eyes.
"Your Highness, you've only been in Bei Li for a few days, and someone is already trying to harm you. It seems I underestimated your abilities. Why don't you tell me who is so bold as to try to harm my princess?"
“It’s Lin Wanqing,” Wei Yingshuang blurted out, as long as Qin Wang believed in her.
Snap!
He slapped Wei Yinshuang across the face.
Qin Wang grabbed Wei Yingshuang's chin again, "Wei Yingshuang, who gave you the audacity to bite the Queen?"
At that moment, a voice rang out from outside the door, "Princess Consort Qin, I wonder how my Queen has harmed you?"
Wanyan Damai stepped into the house, followed by Lin Wanqing.
"She, she...she drugged me with an aphrodisiac."
Given the situation, Wei Yingshuang knew she had no choice but to stick to her guns. She believed Lin Wanqing was not Su Ruojin, and her medical skills could not possibly be as advanced as Su Ruojin's. She only needed to have the physicians of Bei Li investigate to find out.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Lin Wanqing's eyes. This Wei Yingshuang wasn't stupid; she still knew that she was the one who did it.
However, how could she possibly admit it?
"Princess Consort Qin, you say that I gave you the drug, but when did I give you the drug? Do you have any evidence?"
"You invited me to chat in the garden earlier, that must have been when you drugged me. Please, Your Highness, have the physician examine me to see if I have any aphrodisiac in my body."
"Someone, please summon the physician." It was not the Prince of Qin who spoke, but the Prince of Beili.
"Since Princess Qin speaks so confidently, I will have someone investigate thoroughly. If it was the Queen who did it, I will certainly give Princess Qin justice. But if anyone slanders the Queen, I will not let them off lightly!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Yingshuang couldn't help but shudder, but she still firmly believed that Lin Wanqing was the one who harmed her.
As long as the physician arrives, she will be cleared of suspicion.
The physician arrived quickly, took Wei Yingshuang's pulse, and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Prince Qin, Princess Qin does indeed have aphrodisiac in her body."
Upon hearing the physician's words, Wei Yingshuang was filled with excitement. "Am I right? I am innocent. It was Lin Wanqing who wanted to harm me. It was she who wanted to harm me."
The Northern King looked at Lin Wanqing, "Your Majesty, what do you have to say?"
Lin Wanqing bowed to the King of Beili without haste and replied, "Your Majesty, I and Princess Qin were old acquaintances in the Great Chu. Today, I was delighted to see someone from my hometown, so I arranged to meet Princess Qin to reminisce. Afterwards, I returned to Your Majesty's side and did not know where Princess Qin got the aphrodisiac. I beg Your Majesty to investigate."
Indeed, when the Queen met an old friend in a foreign land, no one could find fault with it.
King Bei Li pondered for a moment before speaking: "Guards, investigate for me what is the cause of the drug that Princess Qin was given?"
"Yes!" Just as the guard following behind the Northern King was about to leave, a voice called out, "Wait!"
Then Ze Kun, who was half-lying to the side, knelt down in front of King Bei Li and took out a small white paper packet from his bosom. "Your Majesty, I was the one who administered this aphrodisiac."
Wei Yingshuang looked at the paper package in Ze Kun's hand, her scalp tingling, and she felt that something was wrong.
"I was a little tipsy at the time and wanted to find a side hall to rest for a while. When I came in, I saw a woman lying on the bed. I thought it was one of the palace maids who was waiting for me there, so I went along with it. I had Princess Qin take this medicine, thinking it would add some fun to the relationship."
Everyone present knew Ze Kun's character.
He was fond of women and often carried aphrodisiacs, a fact known to all.
If Ze Kun sets his sights on a woman, he will use his own methods to snatch her away.
