Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 378
Chapter 378 Isolation Meter
“What’s the matter?” Su Wanwan asked.
“This matter … let’s talk about it in the room.” Qi Chengfeng frowned slightly. He held Su Wanwan’s hand and returned to the room. He closed the window and closed the door. Only then did he hand the letter to Su Wanwan. Su Wanwan looked at it and was immediately shocked. Her expression became surprised, “This …”
The contents of the letter were sent by Beichuan Fengliu and Old Monster Huang. The letter was written about the discussion between Beichuan Fengliu and Old Monster Huang about the matters of the Xia Dynasty and their weaknesses in the Xia Dynasty.
Why did they care so much about Xia Chao? Although the Xia Dynasty and the Yan Kingdom were peaceful now, they were actually surging with dark waves. Beichuan Fengliu was the crown prince of the Yan Kingdom, if anyone had to think that he coveted Xia Chao!
Su Wanwan sat in front of the dressing table, her eyebrows slightly knitted together. Looking at the haggard face in the bronze mirror, she felt disappointed. Although Qi Sheng was a loser, as a person of the Xia Dynasty, Su Wanwan felt like she was luring a snake into her nest.
Qi Chengfeng opened his red lips, seemingly wanting to say something, but stopped.
Suddenly, the servant’s voice came from the door, “Third Prince, Third Princess, and the Crown Prince invite the two of you over for dinner.”
“Yes.”
“Alright.” Su Wanwan nodded and exchanged glances with Qi Chengfeng. The two of them tacitly put down the matter and did not mention it for the time being.
The two of them went out and headed towards the lobby.
Just as Su Wanwan did not know how to face Beichuan Fengliu, an audible system notification suddenly sounded in her space, “Dear host, your mission is about to fail. Please fulfill Zhao Ziyan’s wish within a week.”
Su Wanwan was stunned. She almost forgot about this!
Zhao Ziyan’s wish was to return to Yan Country! Sending Zhao Ziyan to the Yan Kingdom from here was impossible even after seven days of endless travel!
The Spatial Audio System said, “You have to be satisfied. Otherwise, your points will be deducted tenfold as punishment for failing the mission.”
“…”
Su Wanwan felt very helpless in her heart. This system that cheated her father! Too annoying! The reward was only 100,000 points! If she didn’t complete the mission, she would have to deduct a million points from her! This Su Wanwan thought to herself, “This system is too inhuman!”
The voice system said, “I am not a human being, what can you do to me?”
“…”
Well, she really can’t do anything!
Su Wanwan was very helpless. Her stomach suddenly moved, and she immediately felt that her stomach was empty. Thinking that she had gone out too hastily this morning and hadn’t eaten yet, Su Wanwan no longer thought about this matter. She decided to ask Beichuan Fengliu about how to solve the problem of Zhao Ziyan after dinner.
When they arrived at the dining table, Su Wanwan and Qi Chengfeng sat down when they saw that everyone had already taken their seats.
Beichuan Fengliu patted a jar on the side and smiled, “If you two were slower, we would not have any treasures!”
Beichuan’s romantic smile was shallow, warm, and intoxicating. He did not look like a scheming person, but … as the old saying goes, a person cannot be judged by appearance.
Su Wanwan did not know what was true and what was false. She pondered for a moment and planned to put down the matter of Beichuan Fengliu coveting the throne of Xia Dynasty first. She smiled and said, “Senior Brother, what is in the jar? It is actually worth your concealment!”
“Guess what?” Beichuan Fengliu smiled complacently. Her long and narrow phoenix eyes narrowed gently. Her eyes were like a crescent moon in the sky, and her charm carried traces of moving light.
“Is this wine?” Su Wanwan thought for a moment as she smelled the fragrance of the wine.
“My junior sister is smart!” Beichuan Fengliu smiled and opened the wooden cork of the wine jar. A fragrance of grapes immediately sprayed out. This fragrance was intoxicating, and the liquid poured down was silky and rosy.
The white porcelain cup was filled with red wine. It looked good, but a mouthful of wine was not enough. Su Wanwan said, “Senior Brother, you are too stingy. How about a different bowl?”
Zhao shi said, “Little wine delights the heart, big wine hurts the body!”
Zhao Ziyan smiled and said, “Little sister, this wine won’t be intoxicating. It’s just fruit wine. Just let them drink it at will.”
As the two of them spoke, Old Monster Huang also said, “Yes, this wine is not intoxicating, but it is better to drink less.”
“Humph! How dare you advise us to drink less!” Beichuan Fengliu rolled his eyes at Old Monster Huang and said, “At least I’ll address you as Master. Look at what you’ve done! I only brought back three jars of fine wine and two jars were taken away by you! With great difficulty, I snatched a jar of wine and drank it with my junior sister and the others. You actually advised us to drink less!”
“Humph! You actually said that about me! I really don’t know how to respect my teacher!” Old Monster Huang snorted coldly. However, there was no trace of blame between his eyebrows. Suddenly, his body stopped and his chest suddenly moved. A “ga” sound came from his mouth. He actually burped, and then a strong wine fragrance floated out of his mouth.
Su Wanwan was amused by the two disciples and said, “Senior Brother, Master has secretly drunk so much. Next time, you can bring another jar and mix it with Daughter Nation before giving it to him.”
“That makes sense.” Beichuan Fengliu smugly smiled at Old Monster Huang.
Zhao shi saw everyone say this and became interested in the wine. She asked the maidservant to pour herself a glass of wine and drink it, saying, “It’s really good wine. No wonder you guys are so excited. I think this wine …”
However, before she could finish her sentence, Zhao shi’s face turned red, and her head fell on the table. Everyone was stunned.
“This” Old Monster Huang stretched out his hand to probe Madam Zhao’s breath and said, “Someone, quickly bring some water over!”
Su Wanwan looked into the wine glass and felt that there was nothing unusual about it. Then, she stretched out her finger to dip it in the glass and put it in front of her eyes for careful observation. She was stunned when she saw this.
This wine was actually poisonous!
Thinking back to the letter she had read, Su Wanwan’s expression sank. She poured the spiritual water that Madam Zhao had received to pick up the space and then vomited. It took more than half an hour for Madam Zhao’s face to calm down.
Beichuan Fengliu said, “Investigate this palace thoroughly! Who exactly touched this wine! This palace needs to know who exactly touched it!”
“So what if I know?” The smile on Su Wanwan’s face became cold. “Senior Brother, my husband is just an unfavored prince of the Xia Dynasty, and my status is as a princess. Do you need to kill us all? Do you want to start killing us now?”
“What do you mean?” Beichuan Fengliu’s expression also sank. “Tell me more clearly, when will I kill you?”
“You really don’t know?” Su Wanwan looked at Beichuan Fengliu, her eyes filled with disappointment. Seeing Old Monster Huang lying on the table, Su Wanwan was even more disappointed. In her heart, she believed that Beichuan Fengliu had planned to do this. She did not want to stay in many houses. She said, “Come, prepare a carriage and move to the inn!”
The servants left behind by the Third Prince’s Mansion immediately came out to help. Su Wanwan left with Madam Zhao, so Qi Chengfeng and Zhao Ziyan naturally followed.
There was only Beichuan Fengliu left at the dining table. Beichuan Fengliu checked the wine jar and found no poison, but Su Wanwan, Qi Chengfeng, Zhao shi, and Zhao Ziyan’s wine jars all had strange powder!
Looks like someone was deliberately trying to alienate them!
Beichuan Fengliu’s gaze became deep. Who was it that was deliberately targeting them?
