Aya then stood up and whispered in Yaolan's ear, "Princess, it's done."
Yao Lan, her eyes red-rimmed, said, "Very well, Su Ruojin, let's see how long you can remain so arrogant!"
When they saw Xiao Yanchu enter holding Su Ruojin's hand, many people at the banquet pretended not to see it, but the three members of the Su family glared at Xiao Yanchu with eyes like knives.
Consort Jiang felt a headache coming on and gave Su Ruojin a stern look, as if to warn her to be mindful of the occasion.
Su Ruojin was just thinking about something with her head down, and didn't pay attention to these details at all.
When Wei Xuecheng saw Su Ruojin return, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. Hadn't his men already made their move?
How could she possibly come back unharmed?
He waved his hand lightly, and the servant beside him quietly withdrew.
Xiao Yanchu noticed that something was wrong with Su Ruojin: "What are you thinking about, Ruojin?"
Su Ruojin replied, "Do you think Yao Lan is the kind of person who would do such a thing?"
The fragrance powder is fine, and the antidote pill is fine, but the problem lies in whether Yao Lan would really shorten her lifespan for Xiao Yanchu.
As far as Su Ruojin knew, the struggles in the Northern Li Imperial Palace were far more brutal than those in the Great Chu. One could be sleeping at night and have one's own brother burst in and kill them.
Would a princess raised in such an environment be a love-obsessed person who would risk her life for love?
It's possible that the Great Chu would produce a princess like this.
The environment of Beili is unlikely to produce a princess like this.
"Then let's wait and see," Xiao Yanchu said.
Yao Lan, use whatever means you have. If you really hurt A Jin, he will make her wish she were dead.
At this moment, a group of women dressed in Hu clothing walked in barefoot, carrying pipa in their hands.
Ms. Hu waved her hand towards the sky, and countless petals fell, filling the banquet hall with petals and fragrance, creating a beautiful scene.
As the music began, the women from Hu (Hu ethnic groups) played the pipa and danced gracefully.
The woman's alluring figure and graceful dance quickly attracted the attention of everyone at the banquet.
As they watched, some people felt as if they were seeing a hallucination.
The Hu women in front of me began to multiply from one to two, and from two to four...
One by one, the guests at the banquet collapsed onto the tables and the floor.
Su Ruojin and Xiao Yanchu exchanged a glance.
The person they were waiting for has arrived!
As the guests fell, a group of masked men in black rushed into the banquet hall.
At the same time, Hu Qing arrived with the guards from the Prince's Mansion and joined forces with the Su family father and son to fight against the men in black.
A man in black charged directly at Su Ruojin, but Xiao Yanchu drew his sword and stood in front of her, engaging in a fierce battle.
Su Ruojin took a few steps back and out of the corner of her eye saw a man in black rushing towards Consort Jiang and Aunt Sulan with a knife.
Consort Jiang and Aunt Sulan had already fainted on the ground and were completely unable to resist.
Su Ruojin's heart tightened, and she rushed over, simultaneously throwing out the poisoned needles in her hand.
The man in black was hit by the poisoned needle, and his body was instantly paralyzed, but the momentum of his forward lunge caused his knife to slash straight at Consort Jiang.
