Chapter 229: Banquet

After Ruan Wanwan returned that day, his subordinates found something and reported to Wanwan the next day that it turned out that Xiao Luxi had a wound on his body. The wound on his body was the same as the group of female corpses he saw that day, but it had healed a little. The heavy bleeding was also caused by the same person, and it was all done by the eldest prince.

Because the eldest prince was restless, Wanwan asked the prince to discuss how to put some pressure on the eldest prince and let him remain calm for a while.

At the same time, the fifth prince also discovered what the restless eldest prince did, thinking that this was a good opportunity, and began to brew some conspiracies.

Ruan Wanwan's men, while detecting the eldest prince's actions, found the fifth prince's people, and also investigated the eldest prince and told Ruan Wanwan together.

"Your Highness, we can find things, and the fifth prince can definitely find them. If the fifth prince also finds them, we will definitely have some actions. In this way, we will use the fifth prince to stumble on the eldest prince, which will save us the risk of being discovered by ourselves." Wanwan said while discussing countermeasures with Your Highness.

After thinking about it, the Crown Prince found that this matter was feasible, so he said to Ruan Wanwan: "Wanwan is really smart. Thinking of such a clever plan, if we attack the eldest prince, we will only blame the fifth prince in the end. If the father discovers it, we can only punish the fifth prince and will not affect us."

The next day, the prince gave orders and asked his subordinates to closely observe the actions of the fifth prince. Once the fifth prince had any movement, he immediately reported it. The fifth prince did not make any major moves for several days. They originally thought that the fifth prince was calm this time, but they heard the reports from his subordinates.

"Your Highness, Crown Prince, this time, the fifth prince asked the fifth prince to hold a banquet. During the banquet, the main concubine and the side concubine would be invited to go there. It is said that there was something big, and he also said that the main concubine and the side concubine should get along well." An Wu came back to report after discovering the matter.

"Oh? Let the concubine and the concubine go with him? What's the reason for this fifth prince is making trouble again? Knowing that the concubine and the concubine have always been in disagreement, no matter which house is like this, he asked the concubine and the concubine to go with him. Wouldn't this offend many people?" Wanwan pondered.

Bei Liangye sneered: "Ha, no matter what he was trying to do, this time, he will definitely fall. You must know that this concubine and the official concubine represent not only the prince's mansion, but also different adults. It would be fine if they had to offend the prince. After all, they were not from the same camp, so how could they do it? No one could offend anyone."

"Your Highness, I still think this matter is a bit strange. If it is just to fight for the throne, there is no need to be so. No one in the court can tell that you are made the crown prince. It is just because the people in the court are pressing step by step, and the emperor has to make the crown prince." Wanwan said worriedly.

"Wanwan, you just have too much worries. The soldiers come and the generals come and cover the soil. I don't believe that he can still poison the banquet. If we can kill us, Beiliangye looked at Wanwan's worried eyes, and couldn't help but embraced the person in his arms, kissed him on the lips, and then whispered to comfort the anxious person.

Sure enough, a few days later, Wanwan received an invitation from the fifth prince's concubine. The invitation said that the main concubine and the concubine would come over together, and said that they were all sisters and they should gather together well and not have any barriers.

On the day of the banquet, Wanwan happened to meet the Fourth Prince's concubine halfway. Because the Fourth Prince's concubine did not take the carriage, Wanwan invited the Fourth Prince's concubine to take the carriage to the Fifth Prince's Mansion. After the Fourth Prince's concubine got on the carriage, she began to inquire about the news from Wanwan.

"Crown Princess, why did you invite the concubine and the concubine together this time? Is there something big happening? You know, the concubine and the concubine have always been disagreeable. Under normal circumstances, how could it be possible to invite the concubine and the concubine to go there together? This banquet is probably not very simple."

"When is there a simple thing on the road to fighting for the throne? After all, we women are just some chess pieces they sacrificed. They say they love us, just talk, and we just listen to it."

Wanwan warned the Fourth Prince's concubine, "Today's affairs will definitely not be simple. As long as you take good care of yourself, you just need to worry about anything else, otherwise your life may really be out of your hands."

The fourth prince's concubine was shocked and quickly whispered: "I thank you for your confession. I must do my best and not meddle in other people's business."

"Shh, I didn't say anything, and you came here by yourself today, but I just met me halfway through and took my carriage. We didn't say anything in the middle, do you understand?"

"Yes, I understand, I will definitely not speak much."

"Well, sit there with peace of mind. It's all right when you arrive at the Fifth Prince's Mansion." After saying this, Wanwan stopped paying attention to the Fourth Prince's Concubine, and the Fourth Prince's Concubine also quietly took the carriage all the way to the Fifth Prince's Mansion.

"Crown Princess, the fifth prince's mansion has arrived. Do you need me to help you get off the carriage?" Min'er said respectfully outside the carriage. The person in the carriage did not speak, but just stretched out his hand. Min'er immediately understood and helped the person in the carriage out of the carriage.

The slaves of the Fourth Prince's Consort also helped the Fourth Prince's Consort get off the carriage. Then Min'er said to the person driving the carriage: "I'll bother the coachman and the carriage will be returned to the prince's mansion first. When the time comes to Shen, then drive the carriage to the fifth prince's mansion and take the prince's concubine back to the mansion."

After receiving the order, the coachman drove the carriage back to the prince's mansion. The fifth prince's concubine stood outside the door to greet him. After seeing the prince's concubine, he walked forward and gave a blessing to the prince's concubine.

"I have met the Crown Princess, the Fourth Princess, and the two sisters-in-laws. I also ask my followers to enter the house and attend the banquet."

The Crown Princess nodded slightly, "Let's go." Then she walked in front.

A servant led the way ahead. After arriving at the garden where the banquet was held, he retreated sideways.

"Please sit down with the Crown Princess. You have a noble status and should be in the seat."

A little waiter walked up and led Wanwan to sit up. After sitting down, a maid served the dishes. First, the soup was served. Rather than saying it was soup, it was better to rinse the mouth. It was held in the mouth without swallowing. It just passed through the mouth and vomited out again. There was a maid next to it using a small pot and then served the pastry. The first plate was lotus cake, then Yunrong slices, and then sesame cake. In order to indicate that the pastry was not poisonous, a special maid came forward and would eat a piece of each pastry.
