Chapter 15 Mystery in the Pot
A sour-sweet taste of greengage lingers on the tip of the tongue. People who don't drink often may not be able to detect that there are other things in the wine.
If it wasn't for Ruan Youqing who often drank with her grandfather at home, maybe even she almost thought it was just ordinary plum wine.
The two drank a pot together, she had an accident, but Rong Yan was intact. At that time, the woman can completely dispel the suspicion and say that she is too strong to drink.
Thinking of this, Ruan Youqing narrowed his eyes and looked at the flagon in the maid's hand again.
I saw that the whole body of the jug was golden, and there were unknown patterns carved on the body of the jug. It looks no different from the jug on other people's desks, but Ruan Youqing knows that this jug has something special.
In her previous life, she had seen a yin-yang jug from the Guzi Kingdom in the Western Regions. The surface of the wine jug looks the same as ordinary wine jugs. In fact, there is a mechanism hidden inside that can divide the jug into two parts. There is a hidden switch outside the jug, as long as you press it, the left half of the wine will be poured out, if you release it, the right half of the wine will be poured out.
Ruan Youqing saw that when Rong Yan poured herself wine, she held the wine jug very naturally. When pouring wine for her, the little finger stuck under the handle of the pot unnaturally.
Presumably, Rong Yan got this jug somewhere, and then she replaced the original jug at the palace banquet with this one.
So... the wine in this jug must be different. If she read it correctly, the right half of the Yin-Yang Pot was indeed filled with ordinary green plum wine. And the left half is filled with... green plum wine with "seasoning".
Oh, this Rong Yan really does not give up.
Didn't succeed in the imperial garden, so I thought about... framing her in a place with more people.
Want to make her… lose face.
Ruan Youqing's eyes flickered coldly, but when he raised his face, he stretched out his hand with a sweet smile and "took" the wine pot in the maid's hand.
Rong Yan was shocked when she saw this, and without thinking, she frowned and said, "Sister Ruan, what is this going to do!"
The little maid had already turned pale with fright, and she had no time to react to the force just now, but in this situation, as a current person, she really didn't dare to say a word.
Ruan Youqing was still smiling, unsteadily filling the jug for himself and Rong Yan.
"Youqing thanked Sister Rong for taking care of her so meticulously. Youqing was very moved. She didn't know how to repay her... So... I can only return a drink to Sister Rong. Sister Rong should not shirk!" Ruan Youqing whispered softly I opened my mouth.
The wine glass in her hand was filled again, Rong Yan's face was as pale as paper.
Rong Yan naturally knew that this jug was not an ordinary jug, but she had bought it from a merchant in the Guz Kingdom after all the hard work. I have tried it many times in private, as long as I operate it properly, there will be absolutely no mistakes!
But she didn't dare to gamble... she went to drink the wine that others poured from this jug...
Because she didn't know if Ruan Youqing had noticed anything, or if she knew about the existence of this jug...
So... she can't drink this wine...
After all... the medicine in the wine is stronger than what she put in the imperial garden before! If the ones in the imperial garden were eaten by ordinary people, nothing serious would happen. But what's in this wine...ordinary people will go crazy after drinking it, let alone those with weak bodies!
Thinking of the possible consequences of drinking the wrong wine, Rong Yan smiled a little stiffly, and her tone was a little blunt: "Sister Ruan's kindness is accepted, but my sister thinks that your health is not very good, so... don't drink this wine..."
Ruan Youqing tilted his head blankly: "Didn't Sister Rong say that this is freshly brewed fruit wine, isn't it intoxicating?"
"Heh... Drunk or not... Sister Ruan should drink less."
Seeing that Rong Yan was already a little panicked, Ruan Youqing covered her lips and smiled, then slowly moved to Rong Yan's ear, and said lightly:
"Sister Rong~ Is it because you are worried about Youqing's body, so...the cakes on the pavilion and the wine are specially added...for Youqing?"
"You..." Rong Yan dropped the wine glass in her hand in shock.
The voice wasn't too loud, but it surprised Li Ange next to him.
Hearing the voice, Li Ange stood up with a look of surprise and asked, "What happened? Why did Sister Yan'er's wine glass fall on the floor?"
Rong Yan still didn't recover from Ruan Youqing's words, but Ruan Youqing opened her mouth with an aggrieved face: "Just now... Sister Rong came to drink with me, I... how can I shirk it. But... when I put Sister Rong's The wine was brought and poured for her, and when she wanted to toast her...but she...threw the wine...on the ground."
After speaking, Ruan Youqing's eyes were already watery.
Li Ange looked at Rong Yan with a frown, and said with some dissatisfaction, "Sister Yan'er, it's your fault. She is weak and wants to toast you a glass of wine. If you don't drink, it will seem unreasonable."
Rong Yan's mind was a little confused by Ruan Youqing's words just now, and she didn't care who the person in front of her was, her voice was a little sharp: "I...I won't drink! She's going to kill me!"
Before Ruan Youqing could speak, Li Ange's face turned ugly: "Sister Yan'er! She is in the palace now! What's more, the queen mother is here too! Who dares to hurt people here after eating a bear's heart! You can't just talk nonsense! "Speaking of this, he turned to Ruan Youqing and asked, "Which one is Sister Yan'er's jug? Pour it for her again!"
Ruan Youqing picked up the wine jug with a look of panic, and then took a new cup to fill Rong Yan with wine.
But in this wine...
Reciprocity is her principle of doing things.
She wants to use this wine to frighten Rong Yan.
Who knows... Li Ange took the wine extremely quickly, first reached out to pinch Rong Yan's chin, and then poured the wine directly into her mouth.
The movements were simple and rough, Ruan Youqing... was also shocked.
She originally just wanted to make the commotion louder, to draw attention to Rong Yan's flagon.
Never expected that Li Ange, a silly girl, would directly drink her down...
Rong Yan really did it on her own.
When she realized that she had been drunk, Rong Yan didn't care about her image at this time, and hurriedly wanted to scratch her throat and retch.
But the wine has been poured directly into the stomach.
Seeing that Rong Yan lost all manners, Li Ange looked surprised: "Didn't you just drink a glass of wine? Why did you look like you drank poison? Sister Yan'er has been a little... stupid recently. If you want to harm her, Xiao Qing, how could you?" Such an aboveboard toast, and... using her own wine jug."
Ruan Youqing was worried at this time: "Her Royal Highness...we...would...make the empress unhappy?"
Speaking of this, Li Ange's expression changed slightly, and he said coldly: "Humph! This princess is the mother's own daughter, how could she be angry because of such a trivial matter? And... who... who and you... are us!"
As if remembering something unpleasant, Li Ange took Rong Yan's hip flask again, and then poured himself a glass.
Ruan Youqing carefully watched the other party's hand with a sullen face, seeing that Li Ange hadn't touched the mechanism of the flagon, so she watched her drink it with peace of mind.
Fortunately, the ingenuity of this jug is that people who don't know anything will basically not pour out another part of the wine hidden in the jug when pouring wine.
Unless that person's hand has some small habit of touching the mechanism.
At this moment, an inappropriate scream suddenly sounded in the bustling hall, and everyone fell silent in fear.
It was Rong Yan who was blushing who screamed.
