Chapter 216 Eastern Hazy Moon
In a courtyard of the Dongfang Family, a woman wearing purple clouds was standing in the pavilion, holding a paintbrush and drawing on paper.
The woman's bun is high and her black hair is draped around her waist like a waterfall. Her whole body is as graceful and graceful as a fairy.
At this time, Dongfang Yi, who was standing aside, said, "Yue'er, tell me what you think, Yue'er."
Dongfang Longyue did not stop painting. She asked while painting: "Dad, you should know that he will not be the prince for long."
Dongfang Yi said: "Although he will not be the prince for long, he is still the prince after all. I estimate that it will be at least half a year before Emperor Xia takes action against the Wang family."
The Dongfang family is special. They know some inside information, so they are not optimistic about Lu Shuyun and think that Lu Shuyun is just a temporary success.
After the Wang family is destroyed, the prince Lu Shuyun will definitely be deposed.
Dongfang Longyue said: "The Wang family probably doesn't want to see other aristocratic families marrying their daughters to the prince, but Wang Yong took the initiative to be the prince's lobbyist. This shows that they have vaguely noticed something and want to completely reconcile our family. The Jiangnan family is bound together.”
"Our family has been doing business for generations and controls almost all the economic lifelines of the Great Xia Dynasty. Once our family is completely tied to the Jiangnan family, Emperor Xia will definitely be more afraid of the Jiangnan family."
Dongfang Yi sighed and said: "I also think that the prince's statement that he likes you is just an excuse, but even if it is an excuse, we can't refuse."
"If we refuse directly, it will be easy for them to detect something, which will not be conducive to our transactions with others. Moreover, our family still has its own mission, so we cannot let anything go wrong at this time."
Dongfang Longyue put down the brush in her hand at this time, raised her head and said to Dongfang Yi: "Dad, let's do this. You pretend to agree to the prince first, but find an excuse to delay for a while. My daughter will find a way to leave Sufeng City."
Although the Dongfang family is one of the Jiangnan aristocratic families, they have businesses in all major dynasties. Dongfang Longyue wants to leave Sufeng City and go to other dynasties to hide. He was good at making decisions and didn't want to marry, so he quietly fled to other dynasties.
Seeing what Dongfang Longyue said, Dongfang Yi sighed, and then said: "At present, it seems that this is the only method that can be used."
"Yue'er, I've wronged you."
Dongfang Longyue said lightly: "This is what a daughter should do."
Dongfang Yi then said: "Dad, I won't bother you anymore."
Having said this, Dongfang Yi turned around and left the yard, preparing to find someone to bring a message to Wang Yong.
……
Night falls.
North Palace.
The moonlight tonight is cold and charming.
The moonlight spreads on the ground like water, and the shadows on the ground sway with the breeze, like ripples on the water.
At this moment, in Chu Yuqin's room, Chu Yuqin was kneeling on the mat. In front of her was a jar of wine and some food.
Chu Qingli and Chu Yuqin sat face to face.
Chu Yuqin poured herself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp. Then she said to Chu Qingli: "Qingli, this is the wine newly brewed by the palace. It tastes very good. It is said that the order from the palace has been queued for several months. Later, sister, I finally found Zixuan to get a jar, you can taste it.”
"It is said that this wine can help detoxify and is of great help in practicing Qingli. Qingli, you have been obsessed with it recently and have left so many scars on your body. Those scars are most likely caused by toxins in your body. Why don't you try some? Try it?”
Hearing this, Chu Qingli did not become suspicious of Chu Yuqin. After all, Chu Yuqin also drank just now.
And she did hear that the white wine recently released by Beiwangfu was very popular. Now there are many guards in the palace who want to try the white wine from Beiwangfu. Chu Yuqin then poured a small cup for Chu Qingli.
Chu Qingli then picked up the wine glass and took a gentle sip.
After taking a sip, Chu Qingli found that the wine was very strong. If it weren't for her strong martial arts skills, strong internal strength, and certain resistance to strong alcohol, she might not be able to control the wine.
At this time, Chu Yuqin poured herself another glass. She moved her buttocks slightly, then changed from sitting on her knees to sitting on her buttocks on the ground. After her plump buttocks touched the mat, she pressed the flesh on her buttocks They were all squeezed together.
Chu Yuqin asked at this time: "Qingli, what do you think of this wine?"
Qingli replied expressionlessly: "It's a bit strong, but the aroma of wine is quite strong."
After hearing Chu Qingli's answer, Chu Yuqin poured another drink for Chu Qingli, and then said: "If you like it, just drink more. Maybe you will still smell of alcohol later." Helps remove impurities from your body.”
Chu Yuqin's idea was very simple, that is, to get Chu Qingli drunk. In order to avoid Chu Qingli doubting whether she wanted to get her drunk, Chu Yuqin also drank.
She thought that Lu Chen would come to her room later anyway, and Lu Chen's magic could cure hangover. When Lu Chen came to her room and found that she was drunk, he would definitely take the initiative to help her cure hangover.
By the time she woke up, her sister was already drunk and unconscious, so she could safely serve Lu Chen tonight and fulfill her promise.
Chu Qingli may not be able to discover it until dawn tomorrow.
When Chu Qingli woke up again, she and Lu Chen had finished their work.
Seeing Chu Yuqin pick up the wine glass and take another sip, something suddenly occurred to Chu Qingli's mind.
During this period of time, her sister has become suspicious of her. After all, Lu Chen always appears in her room, and she is obsessed with it every day. This cannot be explained.
In the past few days, she had not traded with Lu Chen, mainly because she was worried about being discovered by Chu Yuqin.
Now that such strong wine suddenly appeared in Beiwang Mansion, wouldn't her chance come? If she could get her sister drunk, her sister would be unconscious by then. If she went to trade with Lu Chen, her sister would not You will find that she no longer has to be as cautious as she used to be, for fear of being tested by her sister.
However, in order to prevent his sister from finding out that he was trying to get her drunk, it was better to drink with her.
Thinking of this, Chu Qingli picked up the wine glass in front of her and took a slow sip.
At this time, the two sisters had a tacit understanding of their own ulterior motives, and both wanted to get the other drunk. Then the two of them chatted about various things while drinking.
At this moment, Lu Chen's study was still brightly lit.
After an unknown amount of time, a group of dark clouds floated in front of the moon, blocking the moonlight.
Lu Chen got up from his seat, stretched and twisted his neck.
He suddenly remembered that Chu Yuqin asked him to go to her room tonight. When he thought of this, the corners of Lu Chen's mouth could not help but raise slightly.
But he soon thought of another trouble.
Chu Qingli lives next door to Chu Yuqin, and Chu Qingli has recently stopped serving as the deputy commander of the palace's guards. She is currently on vacation.
If he went to Chu Yuqin's room now, there would be a high probability that Chu Qingli would see or notice her.
