I have suffered enough in my previous life, my cousin will never marry me

Chapter 25 Wrong Place
"What are you talking about, big sister?"

Ji Ningxi shook the jade pot in her hand: "Why are you mentioning Yuezhou for no reason? Could it be that Big Sister is still thinking about Prince Yongning?"

Not knowing why she was talking about Prince Yongning for no reason, Ye Wanshu didn't want to comment.

"It's just that an old friend of mine is in Yuezhou, and I want to write a letter to her."

Calmly signaling Chunhong to stand up, Ye Wanshu glanced at the jade pot in her hand and said with a smile, "Second sister, why are you here with me when you're not in the flower hall with Concubine Zhou to greet the guests?"

"Today is my elder sister's wedding day. How can I, as her younger sister, let her be neglected?" Ji Ningxi sat down and said, "Why don't I have a couple of drinks with her?"

"Okay," Ye Wanshu pursed her lips and smiled. "I just happened to bring a pot of good wine from the Duke's Mansion. Let me give it a try."

"Why bother with so much trouble?" Ji Ningxi said, "The wine for today's banquet was all given by His Majesty. Sister, you're so arrogant now, are you not even looking down on the fine wines in the palace?"

"Of course not," Ye Wanshu said indifferently, "I just heard that Your Majesty likes to drink strong liquor, and I'm afraid I can't get used to it. Why don't you try Tongyang's peach blossom wine first? If you don't like it, I can drink something else."

Without giving her another chance to argue, Ye Wanshu immediately ordered Chunhong to clear the table and led Xingtao to the inner room.

She took out the Yin Yang He Huan Powder and took the antidote first. After Xing Tao prepared a pot of wine, she walked out slowly with the wine.

The dishes have been placed on the table in the inner hall.

Ye Wanshu returned to her original seat and poured herself two glasses of wine. Holding one, she gestured to her with a smile, "This wine has a rich aroma, but it won't burn your mouth. Drinking it will make you feel like you're in a fairyland, haunting and captivating. Sister, you might want to try it."

"Sister, you're such a jokester! There's no such magical wine."

Ji Ningxi didn't believe the nonsense she said, but just kept looking at the pot of wine, thinking about how to trick her into drinking it.

Ye Wanshu secretly glanced at the jade pot in her hand, and knew without thinking too much that she had bad intentions.

First, she drank the wine in her hand, and then she asked casually and deliberately: "Sister, why don't you drink? Are you afraid that I, as your elder sister, will harm you?"

"how come."

Ji Ningxi hadn't looked closely enough just now, and didn't know if she had actually drunk the wine. He curled his lips and said, "I've never had Tongyang's peach wine before. I'm afraid it won't suit my taste."

Ye Wanshu poured another glass of wine: "In that case, we can drink our own."

After he finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in front of her, and deliberately tilted the empty glass towards her to see.

Ji Ningxi suddenly choked.

The wine that this bitch drank was obviously fine, but the wine in her hand was drugged. I can't use myself as bait to lure my elder sister into the trap.

She was afraid that her mother would arrange for Prince Qi to come over soon, and she had to confirm the fact that her eldest sister had committed adultery with the servant before Prince Qi arrived.

After thinking hard, Ji Ningxi decided to finish the wine that his elder sister took out first. He could always find a way to let her drink his own pot of wine later.

"After all, it's a kind gesture from my elder sister, how can I let her down?"

Looking at Ye Wanshu with a smile, Ji Ningxi picked up the wine glass with confidence and finally drank the wine.

"How is it? What do you think of the taste?" Ye Wanshu asked with interest.

Ji Ningxi savored the wine carefully, nodded thoughtfully, "It's sweet on the palate, with a unique aroma. It's indeed, as Big Sister said, a fine wine."

"That's good," Ye Wanshu said happily, "If it tastes good, drink more."

Just as he was about to pour her another glass of wine, Ji Ningxi hesitated and refused to take it.

The amount of wine my eldest sister brought was quite a bit. If she finished it but refused to drink my own pot of wine, wouldn’t all my efforts be in vain?

Ye Wanshu silently studied her for a long moment, seemingly not noticing anything unusual. Of all the aphrodisiacs, Yin Yang He Huan San was the most potent. Since she'd taken the antidote beforehand, even if it didn't completely neutralize the drug's effects, it would at least alleviate the symptoms. Ye Wanshu wasn't worried about what else she might be doing with the wine.

Prince Qi is strong and healthy. If he doesn't induce Ji Ningxi to drink more to release the effects of the medicine as soon as possible, so that she can hold Prince Qi tightly, it will be difficult for him to escape.

Thinking of this, Ye Wanshu grabbed the wine from Ji Ningxi's hand without hesitation and said cheerfully, "If you're worried that there won't be enough peach wine for the two of us sisters, how about we take turns drinking it?"

After saying that, he poured a glass of wine given by the emperor in the palace and drank it.

Ji Ningxi smiled secretly, what a fool, she was so stupid and yet she wanted to marry into Prince Qi’s Mansion, she was simply overestimating her own abilities.

Completely without any worries, she took the pot of wine and drank it unscrupulously. In her mind, there appeared a stimulating scene: her elder sister was burning with desire, and she was rolling around with the servants in the mansion.

But after she drank several glasses of wine, she found that her elder sister was still as steady as a rock, with no expression on her face. Instead, she felt that something was increasingly wrong.

"Big sister, aren't you hot? I'm so hot." She asked in some confusion.

Ye Wanshu shook her head calmly: "It's not hot. How can it be hot on such a cool day?"

"But I'm really hot."

Ji Ningxi couldn't help but start tearing her clothes. Seeing this, Ye Wanshu signaled Chunhong and Xingtao to escape quickly.

After the two of them left, Ye Wanshu stepped forward to support her, "If you're hot, take off your coat. There's no one around anyway."

Ji Ningxi took off her clothes very obediently, but she hugged her and kept acting coquettishly: "I'm still hot, big sister, please help me, my chest is so stuffy and uncomfortable."

"It's good to be hot," Ye Wanshu murmured silently in her heart.

Just at this moment, the door was gently pushed open. Ye Wanshu looked up and saw Prince Qi walking in quietly.

"What do you mean, Your Highness? How can a member of a noble clan trespass into a girl's bedroom?" She pretended to be ignorant and rebuked.

Seeing that she was unusually calm, which was completely different from what Aunt Zhou had described, Prince Qi was slightly stunned for a moment, unable to hide his surprise and quickly evaded the question.

"It's Wanwan. This prince didn't mean to do that. I just came out to change clothes and was led the wrong way by a servant. It was an unintentional mistake. Please forgive me, Wanwan."

She apologized as he approached her step by step, "Wanwan, you and I will be married sooner or later, and I will never go back on my word today. How about..."

Before she finished speaking, Ye Wanshu pushed Ji Ningxi into his arms and said, "Your Highness, please be careful with your words. You have condescended to come here to congratulate me today. I am only following my father's wishes to offer you a toast and express my gratitude. I have no other intentions."

Seeing that Prince Qi had been entangled by Ji Ningxi, biting and kissing him fiercely on the neck, and repeatedly shouting "Your Highness, help me", Ye Wanshu hurriedly said, "My sister has admired Your Highness for a long time. She is very unwell now. Your Highness, please find a way to save her."

After saying this, he quickly slipped out the door.

"Wanwan." Prince Qi wanted to chase after her, but he was too tightly entangled by the woman in his arms. In the blink of an eye, his clothes were torn into several pieces by Ji Ningxi.

Although Prince Qi was somewhat annoyed, he was completely unable to withstand the woman's fierce attack. The drug took effect, and her petite body burst out with overwhelming strength, and she threw Prince Qi onto the bed like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.

"Someone come, someone come quickly." Prince Qi shouted a few times at the top of his voice, but his lips were suddenly bitten tightly by the woman, and he was suffocated and had no room to resist.

Hearing the faint shouts in the courtyard, Ye Wanshu searched for her belongings and quickly ran out of Mu Cang Zhai.

But not long after, she began to feel hot and uncomfortable all over. Thinking of Xingtao's advice, she gradually realized the strong medicinal properties of Yin Yang He Huan San.

This thing really can't be used too much.

However, it was worth it to let Ji Ningxi be deceived and save himself from the predicament, even if the body was injured a little. As long as Ji Ningxi entered the Prince Qi's Mansion, no matter what her status was, Zhou would never plot to marry her to Prince Qi for the sake of her precious daughter. On the contrary, she would try to stop it.

Thinking of this, Ye Wanshu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she was about to run to the east side door, she ran into the sneaky servant from before.
