Chapter 780 - 780 Change in att.i.tude
780 Change in att.i.tude
Liu’er Yuanyuan’s words were reasonable. Everyone around her felt that what she said made sense. They all looked at Liang Sisi and Jiang Ming.
It was obvious from their eyes that Liang Sisi and Jiang Ming had poisoned them.
Liang Sisi was rendered speechless when she saw these people like this. Jiang Ming was also rendered speechless.
This group of people obviously favored whoever had the upper hand.
“Say that again.” Liu’er Yuanyuan looked Jiang Ming up and down and could not help but laugh. “Lord Ning Caichen, are you really saying that you have more wealth than the Fengyu Kingdom?”
As soon as she said this, everyone laughed out loud. Those who were embarra.s.sed to laugh pit loud held back their laughter, and the corners of their mouths were obviously filled with mockery.
“Is that so? What will you do if I leave this place?”
Jiang Ming had lost his patience. He stared at Liu’er Yuanyuan.
Although he was just staring at her, Liu’er Yuanyuan felt her heart tremble. Her mouth moved but she did not say anything.
“What’s wrong? Cat got your tongue?”
Liang Sisi felt that they had regained their composure and shouted at Liu’er Yuanyuan.
However, Liu’er Yuanyuan did not get angry. Instead, she laughed. “You’re really acting like a couple of thugs. It really suits your temperament. If it were me, I would be embarra.s.sed to act like this.”
Liang Sisi could not hold it in anymore. She went forward to grab Liu’er Yuanyuan, but Jiang Ming pulled her back again.
Jiang Ming knew that there was no benefit in being rough with Liu’er Yuanyuan now. He said to Liu’er Yuanyuan, “How about this? You go directly to the king, and we will come with you to reason with him.”
Liu’er Yuanyuan was a little stunned. She did not expect Jiang Ming to look for the king directly. However, she still followed Jiang Ming’s instructions and immediately said, “I’ll go see him, but I still have to find a doctor. I can only tell you what happens next after I determine if the pastry is poisonous.”
Seeing that Liu’er Yuanyuan was still hung up on this, Jiang Ming looked around and walked to a lady. “Miss, I want to borrow your silver hairpin.”
He was using his divine will.
Seeing Jiang Ming’s handsome face, the young lady immediately blushed. She nodded slightly and gave the silver hairpin to Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming took the silver hairpin and inserted it into the pastry just now. The silver needle immediately turned black.
Liu’er Yuanyuan said casually, “What’s the big deal? Just now, your silver needles had already poisoned this pastry, so this silver hairpin will naturally be affected by the remainder of that poison.”
Hearing Liu’er Yuanyuan’s words, everyone agreed.
“That’s right, that’s right. Hurry up and think of how to atone for your sins. This is not a small matter. How dare you harm the young masters and young ladies of the Fengyu Kingdom like this?”
“You’re really shameless! You’re still stubborn. You’re clearly the person who did something wrong, yet you still dare to continue talking. Hurry up and get out of the Fengyu Kingdom!”
In the end, the negative comments were directed at Liang Sisi and Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming and Liang Sisi were furious, but they did not attack the others.
Seeing that the other pastries were still poisoned, Jiang Ming tested another pastry. The black color on the silver hairpin was obviously darker.
With this, Liu’er Yuanyuan’s excuse was rendered useless.
Jiang Ming said with a faint smile, “Didn’t you say that my silver needles were the ones with the poison? How could the pastries be poisoned now? My silver needles didn’t touch this pastry.”
Liu’er Yuanyuan was speechless, but she had other reasons. “Who knows if you didn’t secretly poison the pastry?”
Seeing that Liu’er Yuanyuan had a hundred excuses, Jiang Ming said directly, “Alright, just go to the king now. I don’t have the patience to talk to you here. There’s no need to find a doctor. This pastry is obviously poisoned.”
He felt that there was something wrong with Liu’er Yuanyuan’s brain.
Just now, it was said that this pastry was poisonous. Why did she still want to see a doctor?
He still had to test the other pastries and let Liu’er Yuanyuan see that the other pastries were also poisoned. What a waste of his time.
Liang Sisi also began to complain softly, “The way you look on the surface is completely different from the way you inside. You’re such a cunning little brat! You’re despicable.”
Liu’er Yuanyuan heard it clearly, but the others at the tea party could not hear anything.
Liu’er Yuanyuan was furious, but she still had to maintain her image in front of the guests, so she said to Jiang Ming, “Alright, let’s make this suggestion. I think it’s fine. Let’s go to the king now.”
As she spoke, Liu’er Yuanyuan asked the servant to prepare the carriage.
In a short while, the carriage arrived at the palace.
King Fengyu was still playing chess. He was so bored. When he heard that his wife had brought a group of people over, he could not help but be pleasantly surprised.
Earlier, his wife had argued with him. Now that his wife had taken the initiative to step forward, it was simply in line with his wishes.
Before his wife could come over, King Fengyu hurriedly ran over to Liu’er Yuanyuan.
However, as he ran, he saw Jiang Ming and could not help but panic. “Lord Ning Caichen, why are you here?”
This sudden change in att.i.tude stunned everyone at the tea party, and they all looked at Jiang Ming.
What kind of person was Ning Caichen? How could he let King Fengyu treat him like this?
They really could not figure it out.
Liu’er Yuanyuan was even more confused. She raised her voice and shouted at King Fengyu, “Your Majesty, what did you just say? Did you mean Lord Ning Caichen? Did I hear wrongly?”
“Madam, of course you didn’t mishear. This is an esteemed guest of the Fengyu Kingdom, Lord Ning Caichen.”
King Fengyu quickly introduced the two to Liu’er Yuanyuan excitedly.
Liu’er Yuanyuan opened her mouth, but the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat, unable to come out.
King Fengyu felt strange when he saw Liu’er Yuanyuan’s expression. “Honey, did something happen to you?”
Then, he thought of something and looked at Jiang Ming curiously. “Why did you come with my wife?”
Jiang Ming was about to tell him everything, but he was stopped by Liu’er Yuanyuan. “Isn’t this a coincidence? I don’t know why I ended up coming here with Ning Caichen.”
She was well aware of the personality of King Fengyu. He hardly cared about her as well.
Although she was the king’s wife that everyone respected and envied, she was the only one who knew the true sadness in her heart.
Liang Sisi sneered when she saw Liu’er Yuanyuan’s sudden change in att.i.tude. “Didn’t you say that we poisoned the pastries at your tea party? Why? Now you’re saying it’s a coincidence?”
Madam Zhenguo could tell how important Jiang Ming was to King Fengyu. She quickly added, “This is a misunderstanding. It’s a small matter. Let’s talk it out.”
