Chapter 218: The Tiger Gets Fierce with Drugs in Wine
In the letter, Lu Qingxue talked about her fake marriage with Li Rui, her feelings for Zhuang Yaner, expressed her apology for not being able to fulfill her filial piety, and also talked about her past pain and struggle.
Finally, she said that she is living a happy life now and hopes her mother can understand her.
Mrs. Anyang Marquis now knows that her daughter is happier to be alive, so she will never blame her for faking her death and leaving without saying goodbye.
She knew that her daughter had been like a tomboy since she was young, but she never expected that her daughter would actually like a girl. As a mother, she knew nothing about it for all these years.
She also felt guilty and sad for her negligence. If she had discovered this earlier, would Lu Qingxue not have left like this?
Later, she found that Lu Qingxue and Zhuang Yaner would never be able to escape their tragic fate as long as they stayed in Tiansheng Kingdom, and she suddenly became more open-minded.
Now that she knows her daughter is alive and well, she feels relieved.
Her son married such a good daughter-in-law, so what could she be dissatisfied with?
"Master's wife, congratulations." Li Rui rarely showed a smile to outsiders.
As soon as the wife of Marquis Anyang saw Li Rui, she felt very close to him, because this former son-in-law was also her husband's favorite student.
Just like she was watching her own son grow up, the Marquis’ wife smiled warmly: “Your Highness Prince Rui and Xi’er are here, please come in.”
"Congratulations, auntie. This is our gift."
Li Rui gave An Muxi a white jade Guanyin statue of fertility. Originally, he told An Muxi not to prepare anything and just treat it as a gift from both of them.
An Muxi felt that the two of them had not yet gotten married, so she still gave him two anti-poison beads. This time she had enough medicinal materials and made a bunch of them.
This thing is worthless to her, but it is in great demand outside, so it can be considered valuable.
The Marquis's wife smiled and said, "I'm sorry to have cost you so much. Please go in and take a seat."
Here, people bring gifts to wedding banquets, and no one brings vulgar things like gold and silver.
Duke Ningguo and his wife had come with Bai Jingchen a long time ago. After An Muxi went in, she had to sit separately from Li Rui temporarily.
After all, they haven't gotten married yet, so it's not appropriate for them to sit together.
Male and female guests were seated separately. This time, An Muxi pulled Gu Anyan to sit next to her. She felt more at ease knowing there were secret guards here.
Mrs. Wu was very happy to see that the relationship between her aunt and sister-in-law was so good.
Emperor Tiansheng did not attend this time, but he specially asked Eunuch Gao to deliver a gift, which was considered a great honor.
The subsequent series of procedures, including welcoming the bride and groom to the bridal chamber, went smoothly.
As expected, An Muxi saw Li Jiawan in the ladies' seat. She looked calm and composed as usual.
She even began to doubt whether she was being too suspicious. Perhaps she had given up after causing Gu Anyan to fail.
Afterwards, she and Gu Anyan went into the bridal chamber to see the bride Jiang Siyu, and the two best friends happily chatted for a while.
When she came out, Qiuyue hurriedly found her and whispered, "Master, a servant put medicine into Master Bai's glass while he was pouring wine."
An Muxi's face darkened. Gu Anyan, who was standing beside him, asked worriedly, "Did you tell him not to drink?"
Qiuyue replied: "We have already alerted the guards of Bai Shizi. Qiu Shuang is watching in front now. Don't worry, I just came here to inform you."
An Muxi wanted to know what kind of medicine was put in the wine. After all, it was not certain that it was Li Jiawan who did it.
"Where is the boy who pours the wine?" This person should be a key figure.
Qiuyue smiled and said, "The men of Bai Shizi have already controlled the man. He is now locked up in the woodshed and someone is watching him."
"Okay, today is the wedding day of Prince Lu and Siyu, don't make a big fuss, and send the person directly to the Jingzhao prefect later!"
An Muxi walked back quickly. When she arrived at the hall, it was inconvenient for her to go directly to the men's side. She whispered to Qiuyue, "Find a way to get me my brother's glass of wine."
Qiuyue took the order and left, and An Muxi returned to her original seat with the worried Gu Anyan.
She looked in the direction of Li Jiawan and saw that she indeed looked a little excited and happy.
Now An Muxi was almost certain that it was she who put the drug in Bai Jingchen's wine.
After a while, Qiuyue came back with a glass of wine. As they drank and exchanged cups, everything was very natural and did not attract anyone's attention.
An Muxi took the wine and sniffed it. The smell of wine suppressed some of the smell of medicine, but it still made her face change drastically.
This vicious woman actually gave her brother a sterilizing drug! This was 100% Li Jiawan.
My brother has always been humble and kind to others, and he has never offended anyone. Only this woman could do such a cruel thing! She wants to make the Ningguo Mansion extinct!
NND, if I don’t show my power, do you really think I’m Hello Kitty?!
"Qiuyue, find a chance to give this medicine to Li Jiawan later." Since she dared to do such a cruel thing, let her suffer the consequences.
Although Li Rui was at the banquet, he kept an eye on An Muxi from time to time. Seeing her face change while holding a glass of wine, Li Rui seemed to have thought of something.
Could it be that Princess Ronghua was really up to something again? He didn't like seeing a little woman worrying.
"Jianying, go help me with something."
Jianying leaned over to listen to Li Rui's instructions, then immediately turned and left.
After a while, Qiu Shuang and Qiu Yue came back. Qiu Shuang said, "Master, the wine has been changed."
For people like them who came from the secret guards, the easiest thing was to cooperate with each other and exchange wine.
An Muxi said bitterly: "Keep staring at her and make sure she drinks the wine!"
It's a pity that her status is not low, and the marriage between the two countries is recently involved, so they can't give her some drastic measures. However, if she drinks the apothecary and gets married, she will not have her own children, and her future life can be imagined.
You deserve it!
An Muxi has always been sincere to her friends and never soft-hearted to her enemies. Moreover, this woman has touched her bottom line.
She would never allow anyone to hurt her family.
After a while, Qiu Shuang came back and said, "Master, she seems to be in a good mood. She drank the glass of wine in a short while."
An Muxi sneered: "She must have thought that my brother drank her sterilizing wine? She was celebrating there! Stupid vicious woman!"
Seeing that Gu Anyan was so worried that she couldn't eat, An Muxi comforted her, "Don't worry, she won't be able to jump up and down again after today."
Gu Anyan knew that An Muxi was very capable and that King Rui was supporting her from behind, so she felt a lot more at ease.
At this time Qiuyue came back and said, "Master, when Li Jiawan saw Bai Shizi go out, she followed him out too!"
"what?!"
An Muxi looked towards Li Jiawan's position, and after a moment she was gone. No, she had to go over and take a look.
"Qiushuang Qiuyue, come with me to take a look. Anyan, you stay here with mother. Don't worry, I'll be watching over her and nothing will happen."
She held Gu Anyan's shoulders to prevent her from going over. It would be bad if she saw something bad and caused some misunderstanding between her and her brother.
Gu Anyan had no choice but to sit down obediently. Wu also noticed that the aunt and sister-in-law looked unhappy and were muttering to each other in an unusual way.
"An Yan, is there something going on between you and Xi'er?"
Gu Anyan forced a smile and said, "No, don't worry, Auntie. Xi'er has gone to the bathroom."
When An Muxi arrived at the backyard, she saw Bai Jingchen being blocked in a corner by Li Jiawan and they seemed to be talking about something.
