Su Qianji exerted force in an instant, and the almond roll in his hand disappeared into thin air.
Lang Qi was shocked and whispered, "Master, there are so many people here, we can't expose our spiritual power."
The man's gloomy eyes carried a bone-chilling chill.
"Kill her now, immediately."
Lang Qi asked, "Kill now?"
Su Qianji didn't say anything, but his expression showed that he didn't want to see the living Jiang Yao again.
Jiang Yao, who was unaware of this, was still savoring the snack in his mouth. The snack was really good and delicious.
At first I thought it tasted like dog shit and didn’t want to eat it, but I didn’t expect it to taste so good.
When she swallowed the third one, she felt a chill down her spine.
She looked back with confused eyes, but before she could see anything clearly, a young man ran towards her.
Jiang Yao was surprised for a moment, then quickly picked up the plate on the table and moved it aside.
Lang Qi, who was about to take action, did not expect this sudden change and quickly retreated behind Su Qianji.
——Is he throwing himself into my arms because I’m beautiful?
Jiang Yao thought so and took another look at the young man who rushed over. He looked good, but if he stood next to Zhao Ce, he would be inferior.
——Sorry, brother, I like good-looking guys, and I’m not interested in someone like you.
So she stood aside quietly and ate the snacks on the plate quietly.
In Su Qianji's eyes, the expression went from anger to surprise in just a moment.
"What a mess, what a mess."
Zhao Ce scolded in a low voice. The boy scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.
"Brother, I didn't mean it."
This is Zhao Ye, the seventh prince of the State of Zhao. He is a notorious dandy. He is the same age as Jiang Yao, but he is a well-known playboy in Jincheng.
Jiang Yao took another look at him. He looked quite nice when he smiled. He was a very sunny big boy.
It was this glance of hers that caught Zhao Ye's attention.
The young man walked towards Jiang Yao with a sly smile on his face.
"I don't know if this is the girl from the He family. I've offended you just now. I apologize to you."
Jiang Yao was in a daze, with a piece of almond roll still in his mouth.
—Is he hitting on me?
"girl?"
Jiang Yao blinked and pointed at himself: "Are you talking to me?"
Zhao Ye was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he saw such a silly girl.
Zhao Ce spoke a few words to someone and then disappeared from Zhao Ye's sight. When he saw him talking to Jiang Yao, his face instantly darkened.
"Ye'er."
"Brother, whose family is this girl from?"
"Could you please restrain yourself? Today is the day to select the four holy maidens. Don't cause trouble for me at this time."
"Oh, big brother, I know. I won't make things more complicated. Just tell me who this girl belongs to."
Jiang Yao swallowed the almond roll in his mouth hastily, but because he was too anxious, he choked on the big bite.
She held her throat and looked around for water.
——Why don’t you add some water to such a dry shit roll? I don’t want to choke to death. It will look ugly when I die.
The man in the wheelchair twitched his sword-like eyebrows and looked sideways with a cold look in his eyes.
To be honest, he was really looking forward to seeing someone choking to death and how ugly their death would be.
"Girl, are you looking for water?"
A pair of slender hands came into her sight, holding a large cup of tea.
Jiang Yao looked up and saw Zhao Ye with the sunny smile.
“The almond rolls are a bit dry and you can easily choke on them if you’re not careful.”
The tone of his voice is definitely that of a warm-hearted neighbor.
Jiang Yao smiled gratefully, took the teacup, and suddenly stopped when he was about to drink.
A chill spread from her fingertips to her entire body.
Because I was too scared, I swallowed subconsciously. I did swallow the almond roll, but it made my throat sore.
But Jiang Yao didn't feel any pain at all, and looked up at Zhao Ye blankly.
"Why don't you drink anymore? Drink it now."
"Brother, do I have any grudge against you? Bring me a cup of poisoned water."
Suddenly, she was startled. Could it be intentional? Was he displeased with her and wanted to poison her?
Looking at Zhao Ye's harmless smile, Jiang Yao felt that it was very likely.
The man in the wheelchair raised his eyebrows and moved his fingers to let Langqi come forward.
"Go check today's tea. Someone added something to it."
Langqi quickly retreated.
Because the banquet had not started yet, the tea had not been served yet. Zhao Ye had asked for the cup on his own initiative, so Jiang Yao was the only one holding the tea.
"Seventh Prince." The wheelchair slowly slid over, and Su Qianji said indifferently: "Are you free?"
Zhao Ye's body froze, and his smile froze on his lips: "No. Not idle."
Then he immediately followed Zhao Ce to greet people.
Su Qianji glanced at the girl holding the teacup and felt suspicious.
If someone knows that a teacup contains poison just by picking it up, it either means he has a particularly deep understanding of poison or he has encountered it before.
The Jiang Yao in front of him seemed completely different from what he had found.
It should be said that the Jiang Yao in front of him is the same as the one he found out, but the Jiang Yao in his heart is different.
After Zhao Ye left, Jiang Yao carefully placed the cup on the table.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to her, she sprinkled a little on the table and quietly took out a silver needle from her sleeve.
——It’s not a deadly poison, but after drinking it, your whole body will twitch and your pulse will become like an epileptic seizure.
Lang Qi came back soon and leaned over to whisper in Su Qianji's ear: "Master, there is indeed something put in one of the pots of water."
"Who is that pot of water for?"
"It's not certain who it was given to, but the medicine was given by the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, and a special palace maid was assigned to watch over it. But another palace maid took it by mistake, so it was handed to the Seventh Prince."
Now we know the reason without having to check. The positions of these four saints are extremely important in Zhao State. Jiang Shu wants to be chosen, but is afraid of being eliminated, so she prepared a backup plan.
Su Qianji didn't care about this. He was curious about Jiang Yao in the corner.
"What kind of person is Jiang Yao?"
"He is illiterate, arrogant, willful, conceited, disrespectful to his elders, and acts recklessly."
Su Qianji raised his hand to interrupt him, the corners of his mouth twitching. He really had a lot of bad deeds and no good points at all.
"Does she know medicine?"
Lang Qi was surprised: "I checked and didn't find that she knows medicine?"
That was very interesting. The inner voice of the girl in front of him was actually giving him detailed information about the poison in the cup of tea.
If Jiang Yao doesn't know medicine and doesn't understand poison, then what are these thoughts about?
"Chisai."
With the sudden sound, the voice in his heart stopped abruptly.
Zhao Ce leaned over again.
Su Qianji was sitting in a wheelchair, and Zhao Ce felt it was disrespectful for him to talk to him while standing, so he walked closer and slowly leaned his upper body.
——Oh my God, is it so exciting?
Jiang Yao stared with his eyes wide open, not even blinking.
——It’s time to kiss, it’s time to kiss. The arrogant prince couldn’t help missing his innocent little husband, and wanted to kiss her in public without caring about the public. Wow, can you see this without paying?
Su Qianji gritted his teeth, and the armrest of the wheelchair in his hand finally couldn't withstand the pressure and broke with a snap.
He picked up one of the pieces and threw it directly at Zhao Ce's shoulder as he was about to bend down.
Zhao Ce's body stiffened, and he slowly took two steps back, looking at the man in the wheelchair in disbelief.
"Thousand Festivals."
"Prince, please keep your distance from me."
