The lady escaped marriage and became addicted

Chapter 457 Princess Ping and Princess An (3)
Wu naturally understood the threat in An Ran's words.If Princess Ping's reputation is ruined, can King Ping let it go?

Mrs. Wu is not really stupid, she immediately wanted to understand the seriousness of it, stood up and knelt down to An Ran, and said, "My concubine is right, I was short-sighted at the beginning, thinking that my concubine grew up in the countryside and was not worthy of my son, so secretly Supporting him to pretend to be sick and ruin the reputation of the princess in order to achieve the goal of retiring. Who knows that although the princess grew up in the country, she is both talented and beautiful. When we learn the truth, it is too late to regret it, but it is too late... There are so many mistakes It's all my concubine's fault, I implore Wangfei to forgive me..."

An Ran smiled and raised her hand, motioning for her aunt to help Wu up, and said with a gentle smile, "Aunt He is serious. The matter is over and it's over. I don't care about it. I really want to say Wake up, Your Highness and I still want to thank Aunt He and the second elder brother of the He family, if the He family is not willing to retire, how would I have the opportunity to know my Highness again? How can I have the happiness and glory I have today?"

Wu took a cautious look at An Ran, and saw that she seemed to be satisfied, so she got up and bowed, and then took Dugu Xiangyi to leave.Today's Prince An's Mansion is really too dangerous. Concubine An and Concubine An are fighting each other. It is very dangerous. No matter who wins and who loses, the people watching the fun will inevitably be angered. It is better to leave early!

Wu hoped that she had helped Princess Ping just now, that she could remember a little affection, and would not trouble the He family again.I heard that King Ping is in charge of the official department now, and the master is going back to Beijing to report on his duties soon. The evaluation of the official department and the distribution next year will all depend on the mood of His Highness King Ping.

Dugu Xiangyu watched Wu Shi and Dugu Xiangyi leave, and secretly hated them for defecting temporarily, so she had to find another way.

Seeing that it was getting late, the dinner party was coming soon, and Princess Ping could leave after the dinner party, Dugu Xiangyu became more and more anxious, and there was not much time left for her.If things are not done well, the prince will definitely blame her for being useless.what to do?
At this time, a group of maids came in with food boxes, but they came to exchange refreshments. Dugu Xiangyu suddenly had an idea, and ordered: "Come here, prepare a small stove, let's warm the wine!"

As she said that, she smiled brightly and generously at everyone, and said: "The weather is getting colder and colder, and it may snow soon. Why don't we warm up a few pots of wine and drink to warm up our bodies."

Persuade people to drink before the banquet?What's the point?But since Princess An said so, even if it doesn't make sense, it makes sense.Immediately, several ladies responded.

An Ran secretly guessed that if she was persuaded to drink now, she would either poison her with some kind of medicine, such as a child-killing drug or something; or she would want her to get drunk and ruin her reputation at the banquet later.

So, the key is the wine.Although she brought secret medicines such as Jiejiu pills, but the medicines are three-point poisonous, so it's better not to use them if you can.Besides, who knows what Princess An will do in the wine?
Be careful and prevent problems before they happen, An Ran immediately smiled and said, "Second Sister-in-law is really thoughtful. It's a pity that I am taking medicine, and the imperial doctor said to avoid alcohol. It seems that I am not lucky enough to taste the second imperial wife's house. It’s good wine. You ladies are so lucky, you must drink more later.”

When Dugu Xiangyu heard the words, his expression suddenly became ugly.How could Princess Ping be so vigilant and react so quickly?I just mentioned drinking to keep warm, how could she come up with such an excuse to refuse her, and let myself be unable to say anything to persuade her to drink.

"Why, brother and sister are not in good health?" Dugu Xiangyu has already lost before he made a move this time, and the anger and depression in his heart can be imagined.Even though she was used to pretending, her voice at the moment was a bit gnashing of teeth.

An Ran shyly covered her mouth with a smile, and said: "Didn't the father send the imperial doctor to Ping Wang's mansion every day? The left is just medicine for recuperating the body. Didn't the second emperor's wife say just now that my highness has no heirs? In a hurry!"

Well, when it comes to the important matter of King Ping's heirs, who dares to persuade her to drink again?If she really persuaded her to drink a sip of wine today, she might blame Prince An's Mansion for not giving birth to a child in the future.

"In this case, the brothers and sisters can only watch us drink." Dugu Xiangyu had spoken, so naturally he couldn't cancel the proposal just because of An Ran's refusal. "Let's drink tea, younger siblings! I don't know what kind of tea younger siblings like to drink? Let them make it for younger siblings."

An Ran said with a slight smile: "I'm not afraid that the Second Emperor's Sister-in-law and all the wives will laugh at me. I have been poor since I was a child, and I have never drank any good tea. In fact, it is not good. If the Second Emperor's Wife asks me what I like, it is better to ask someone to prepare a glass of boiled water That’s good, I’ve been drinking this since I was thirsty.”

Plain boiled water, if there is anything in it, it will be easy to find out.An Ran believes that in this era, there should not be many colorless and odorless poisons.Besides, even plain boiled water, she may not really know how to drink it, but it is just to remind Princess An not to tamper with her diet.

Dugu Xiangyu is not an idiot either, An Ran made it so clear that she stopped thinking about playing tricks on her food, and said with a bit of sarcasm: "My brother and sister are not born well, why always bring it up, this is not self-exposed Is it short? You don’t have to embarrass King Ping.”

An Ran didn't agree with these words.She immediately retorted: "I came from a poor family. This is the truth. It's not that I hide it from others so they don't know. I am innocent and upright. I support myself and my mother with my own hands, and I support my brother's study and scientific examination. I think It's nothing to be ashamed of, it's my pride! Besides, my Highness's reputation is based on his own real talents and learning, as well as the exchange of blood, sweat and youth when guarding the border. How could it be possible because he married a wife from a poor family? Just lose face?"

These words not only made Dugu Xiangyu speechless, but also made the other wives applaud secretly.This Princess Ping is indeed extraordinary!She is firm, brave, witty, and confident. No wonder King Ping didn't care about her background and married her as his concubine.Apart from her background, her talent and appearance are really worthy of His Royal Highness King Ping!
At this time, the stove was delivered and placed in the corner by the door against the wall. A few maids added charcoal and warmed four pots of wine.

Princess An's food official came forward and reported that she had prepared four kinds of wine, Qumi wine, Lanling wine, red wine and green plum osmanthus wine, which were served in different cups, and asked the princess and various wives to choose the wine they liked.
