Chapter 160: Juan Niang Poisoned
The 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the Little New Year.
The weather is still cold. Every family is busy steaming cakes, and there are almost no pedestrians on the street.
Prince Jinlan's carriage was parked in the backyard of the Second Prince's mansion. He walked out of the carriage wearing a black fox cloak. Rouxin, who was wearing a white fox jacket, also got out of the carriage and walked down.
Feng Yan and Rouxin walked side by side behind Gongzi Jinlan. The second prince stood at the door of the study and looked at the arrogance. The cold young master Jinlan walked slowly, and a hint of chill passed in his heart.
There are many capable people in the Ji family, but the only one with outstanding courage and strategy is Gongzi Jinlan.
The second prince needs the support of Prince Jinlan, but he is also afraid of the Ji family forces behind him. Prince Jinlan does spare no effort to plan for himself, but it is also for the Ji family!
"I have seen the second prince!" Young Master Jinlan bowed and bowed.
"Please!" The second prince turned around and entered the study.
Young Master Jinlan followed in. Rouxin and Feng Yan stood under the porch.
"Drink a cup of hot tea first to warm your body." The second prince and the young master Jinlan sat at the tea table.
The carbon fire was very strong, reflecting half of the cheeks of Young Master Jinlan. He picked up the teacup and didn't drink it.
"Are you worried that he won't make trouble today?" The second prince sipped a sip of tea.
"You only invited him and the third prince, aren't you afraid that he will be suspicious?" Young Master Jinlan expressed his doubts.
"The fifth brother is not feeling well; the eighth brother goes to his mother's place! He won't know." The second prince gently put down the teacup and looked at the young master Jinlan.
"Is there any movement over his side?" Young Master Jinlan was still afraid of a change.
"No! He may have the same thoughts as us, but just waiting for us to do it!" The second prince drank all the tea in the cup.
"He is also your pawn today?" The second prince stared at Gongzi Jinlan's eyes without blinking, but he could not see anything. There was no emotional fluctuation in Gongzi Jinlan's eyes, and it was as cold as a pool of ice.
"Young Master! The Fourth Prince's car has arrived!" The second prince's guard came to report.
"Let's go!" The second prince and the young master Jinlan got up and went to the banquet hall.
As soon as they sat down, the fourth prince brought the Long Guard to the hall.
"Fourth brother, please sit down!" the second prince said softly.
"Thank you, Second Brother!" The fourth prince sat in the right chief. His two accompanying dragon guards sat left and right in the back seat.
"The Third Prince is here!" A news broke out from the porch. The Third Prince and Gongzi Qingqian walked in one after another with leisurely steps.
"I've seen my second brother!" The third prince said politely. Young Master Qingqian also politely.
"Sit!" The second prince looked at the young master Qingqian behind the third prince with expressionless expression.
Gongzi Qingqian never looked up, but just sat with the third prince in the guest seat. His seat was facing Gongzi Jinlan's seat.
"Come on a banquet!" As a result, the music sounded. The girls who served the food walked in in color uniforms.
The second prince picked up the wine glass. Then he whispered loudly: "At the end of the year, we will gather for our three brothers and have three drinks for the prosperity of Youjing!"
The people present had to drink three glasses of wine. Rouxin filled the fourth cup for Gongzi Jinlan. Then she picked up the chopsticks and picked up the vegetables for Gongzi Jinlan and put them on his food plate.
The music became louder. The dancers began their meticulous performance. The three princes respected each other and drank happily.
For a moment, Rouxin felt that there was a friendship between them. She even felt that something could not happen today.
"Second brother! You only invited the third brother and me today. I don't know why?" The fourth prince seemed a little drunk.
"If you two of you are willing to let You brother win tomorrow, I will agree to you with a condition!"
"Second brother is drunk too much! I can't bear to drink, so I'll take it off first!" The third prince stood up and left the seat shakingly.
"Second brother! You were scared away by you before you even finished drinking! It doesn't matter! He doesn't let me, I'll let me go! But you have to give me that soft heart!" The fourth prince pointed at the soft heart beside Gongzi Jinlan and said.
Rouxin was shocked and couldn't help but look up at the second prince. She saw the wandering expression in the second prince's eyes.
The second prince raised his wine glass and looked at Gongzi Jinlan. He was indeed hesitant.
The fourth prince was obviously hinting that if he gave him soft heart, he would not compete with him for the throne.
Young Master Jinlan slowly raised his head and looked at the second prince. He pursed his lips tightly and said nothing.
"She is already the one of the young master Jinlan! They are in love, how can they break up for their brother?" The second prince stood up and wanted to pour wine for the fourth prince sitting in the lower right head.
"You don't need to pour it! Let that dancing girl pour wine for me!" The fourth prince pushed away the second prince's wine pot.
"Juan Niang?" The second prince looked at the dancer wearing a blue shirt and covered with a veil. How did the fourth brother recognize this woman? The second prince's eyes swept over the face of Gongzi Jinlan.
Young Master Jinlan looked cold and he didn't seem to see the second prince's eyes.
"Miss Juan has met the second prince! The fourth prince!"
"My grandma Juan! Pour wine!" the second prince ordered.
"Yes!" Juanniang walked to Roxin's table and picked up the wine pot.
"My grandma Juan! Be careful!" Rouxin raised her head and whispered. Her eyes were filled with a look of worry.
"I can do it!" Juanniang smiled, her eyebrows and eyes were filled with spring.
Juanniang walked to the fourth prince's table. She filled the fourth prince's wine glass, and then she put down the wine pot and saluted.
"Go and pour it for everyone! Let's congratulate the second brother on his victory tomorrow!" The fourth prince stood up. Juanniang walked towards the second prince's seat with the wine pot on the fourth prince's table.
The second prince stood up with a smile. Juanniang served the filled wine glasses with her hands. Then she poured wine for everyone one by one.
The second prince drank all the wine in the glass. Everyone drank it too.
"It's a pity that my third brother is gone! But maybe it's his life that shouldn't be lost!" The fourth prince crushed the wine glass in his hand.
"Why did the fourth brother say that?" The second prince looked surprised.
"Second brother! I just want one woman and give up fighting with you. But you don't even want to give me a woman! If you sit on the dragon throne in the future, I'm afraid I'll have to go to jail!" The fourth prince said gritting his teeth.
"Fourth brother! Brother is definitely not that kind of person!" The second prince explained in a hurry.
"It's too late! All the wine you drink was poisoned by Juan's mother!" The fourth prince smiled.
"My grandma Juan! You are still..." Rouxin was shocked.
"Yes! She is my person! Aren't you in love with Prince Jinlan? Then you go to the underworld to be a pair of desperate mandarin ducks!" The fourth prince walked down the steps and walked towards Prince Jinlan's seat.
"And you! You dare to compete with me for women! Let me ask you the southwest border, who doesn't know the reputation of my fourth prince! You are just an aide under my second prince! Aren't you scheming? But you can't imagine! I've already installed an insider in your mansion! No matter how smart you are, I can't imagine that Juan Niang is a chess piece I put in your mansion!" The fourth prince pointed at Prince Jinlan and said contemptuously.
Young Master Jinlan looked down at his teacup without saying a word. Rouxin felt that she was about to breathe.
"Don't hold on! Although the medicinal properties of this poison occur slowly, it will slowly invade your internal organs. Even if you take the medicine in advance, it will be useless! Hahaha!" The fourth prince laughed to the sky.
