Chapter 818 Royal Scandal
Prince Liang glanced at Wu Yue'er indifferently, "Are you sure Prince Kang can help find him?"
"King Liang, what do you mean by that?"
"I hope you have some self-awareness."
The King of Liang remained indifferent. He had long known about Wu Yue'er's eccentricities; as a princess, she had no sense of marriage alliance and no basic understanding of her own status.
Anyone with a modicum of self-awareness would know how to maximize their profits, but in the end, they become like a stone in a latrine, despised by everyone.
Song Ruozhen was quietly watching the show from the sidelines, and she couldn't help but be surprised. She didn't expect that the King of Liang's words were so unpleasant to hear.
"You can't find anyone, I just wanted to help, why don't you know your place?"
Wu Yue'er was furious. Although she had some friction with Prince Liang because of Qi Qingyi, it was only a one-time encounter.
She heard that Qi Qingyi was now disfigured, and that it was because of a fight with Tang Xuening. This just proved that Qi Qingyi caused trouble last time, and it had little to do with her.
He's a prince, after all. Surely he doesn't even have this much magnanimity?
"Why don't you go back and ask King Kang?"
Song Ruozhen shook her head with a sigh, already able to imagine how Prince Kang would react after learning about today's events...
Wu Yue'er clenched her fists. Seeing Song Ruozhen's knowing look but not saying anything, as if she were a fool who knew nothing, she felt even more annoyed.
Why does this woman always act so superior?
"Your Highness, since everything is alright, I'll be taking my leave now."
Song Ruozhen stood up. This place was already a den of dragons and tigers, and she didn't intend to stay here for long. It was better to leave as soon as possible.
"Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Wu Yue'er suddenly grabbed Song Ruozhen, "There were some misunderstandings between us before. Now that I'm married, how about I offer you a cup of tea, and from now on you won't hold grudges against me?"
Looking at the tea that Wu Yue'er handed over, Song Ruozhen raised an eyebrow. Was this woman starting to play tricks?
"Why don't you drink it? If you drink it, I'll forgive you," Song Ruozhen said.
"You don't trust me?" Wu Yue'er smiled as she downed her tea in one gulp, then picked up another cup. "Now you can drink it without worry, right?"
"This tea was delivered by Liang Wang's men. I've been right under your noses the whole time. Even if I wanted to poison it, there's nothing I could do, right?"
At this moment, King Liang spoke up as if watching a good show: "What Princess Kang said is also correct. She has already put it this way, so why don't you drink it?"
“Your Highness, Princess Consort Kang has wronged you before. Why don’t you drink this tea?”
Song Ruozhen raised her eyebrows. This guy wanted to watch the show here? There was no way he was going to have such a good time.
Wu Yue'er immediately poured another cup of tea. "Your Highness, Princess Consort Chu is very wary of me. Why don't you drink this cup of tea first?"
King Liang remained silent, scrutinizing Wu Yue'er for a moment before accepting the cup.
"Very well, I will drink this cup of apology tea."
Seeing that the King of Liang had drunk it all in one gulp, Song Ruozhen clicked her tongue in amazement. He must have decided that this place was his territory and had no worries at all.
However... the poison that Wu Yue'er used was not so simple!
"Princess Consort of Chu, now you can drink it without worry."
Wu Yue'er handed over the cup again.
Song Ruozhen took the cup, covered her face with her left hand, and drank the tea in one gulp.
Seeing that the water in the cup was empty, Wu Yue'er felt a surge of joy. Today, she could finally get her revenge!
"Since you've come all this way, I don't think there's any need to rush off. I happen to have something I'd like to ask Princess Chu."
Song Ruozhen looked around the room. From the moment she stepped inside, she noticed that a formation had been set up there, enough to prevent the news from leaking out.
"Then tell me, is there anything you'd like to ask me?"
For a moment, all three harbored ulterior motives.
Everyone knew there was something wrong with the tea, and everyone was waiting for the substance in the tea to take effect.
Song Ruozhen knew very well that she hadn't actually drunk the tea. She had her own little space, and all she needed to do was transfer everything into it when she was drinking tea.
As for the Prince of Liang, she had no idea what method he had used, but the teacup was empty and her sleeves were not wet.
Before long, Song Ruozhen and Wu Yue'er noticed that Liang Wang's face was flushed and something was clearly wrong.
Song Ruozhen was startled. What's going on with this guy?
Knowing there was something wrong with the tea, this guy actually drank it!
Seeing that Liang Wang was starting to reach out to her uncontrollably, Song Ruozhen quickly dodged, only to see Wu Yue'er push her away with a joyful expression.
Fortunately, she was already on guard against this guy, and when he pushed her, she simply flung him back.
"what--"
Wu Yue'er cried out in pain, unable to believe that Song Ruozhen had such great strength.
"Let me go!"
Wu Yue'er was about to pull Song Ruozhen away when she found herself being grabbed by Liang Wang instead. This sickly man, whom she thought was weak and helpless, was surprisingly strong.
She struggled, but found she couldn't break free from his grasp.
"Wu Yue'er, I knew you had ulterior motives. You put poison in this tea?"
Song Ruozhen angrily threw down a sentence and ran out, but as she ran, she couldn't help but be surprised. She didn't expect Wu Yue'er to actually have some skills.
At least this poison... feels unusual!
Qing Teng and Bai Zhi were already waiting outside, worried that their master might encounter danger. Prince Liang was no ordinary man, but the presence of Wu Yue'er put them at ease.
"Is the soundproofing in this house so good? Why can't we hear anything?"
Bai Zhi frowned, her heart filled with worry, but no matter how carefully she listened, she couldn't hear a sound.
"There are three people inside, they can't possibly not say anything, can they?"
Qing Teng felt the same worry, but she was more calm and composed than Bai Zhi.
"Don't worry, the princess is always smart, and the calamity that happened today was already foretold when the carriage had an accident, so there shouldn't be any more trouble."
Moreover, we sent someone to inform the Prince before we came, so he should be arriving soon.
The princess had already made thorough preparations before leaving home, so there shouldn't be any problems.
Just as the two were pondering this, Song Ruozhen came out from inside, her delicate face filled with panic.
"Zhen'er, are you alright?"
When Chu Junting arrived, he saw Song Ruozhen's expression and his heart tightened immediately.
Yunyang felt that his master was like a gust of wind, and in the blink of an eye, he could only see his back.
"I'm fine." Song Ruozhen patted her chest, still shaken, and said with difficulty, "It was them..."
"What's wrong with them?" Chu Junting frowned.
Song Ruozhen's expression was complicated. "This can be considered a royal scandal."
