Chapter 53 The Grand Wedding (4) (The King of Jiangnan's Scheme)
After the Empress Dowager was escorted away.
"Listen up, everyone! Today is my wedding day. If you have come to congratulate me, you are welcome."
"If anyone dares to cause trouble at my wedding banquet, you will surely not want to bear the consequences, nor can you afford to."
Qin Wu glanced around.
Warning to everyone.
He didn't want anyone to ruin his wedding.
"On the occasion of Your Highness's wedding, we have come to sincerely congratulate Your Highness and Your Highness's wife."
"Yes! We have come here sincerely to congratulate the Prince and Princess on their wedding."
"..."
The guests offered their congratulations.
What a joke! The Empress Dowager just fainted from anger, how dare they provoke this evil star?
Otherwise, they'd be afraid of incurring this wrath of the evil star!
If even the Empress Dowager dared to take action, then they would certainly be no match for them.
"That's good. Then everyone, have a good meal, drink well, and have fun today."
"I have prepared many recreational activities in the Royal Garden. Everyone is welcome to participate. Those who rank high will be able to participate in the evening banquet performance."
"The first prize at the banquet will be awarded by the King."
Seeing that everyone was sensible, Qin Wu said no more.
The noble ladies were all excited when they heard Qin Wu speak.
These kinds of banquet performances are all prepared for ladies from respectable families.
If you win first place at the banquet, you'll truly become famous throughout the capital.
It will be much easier to find a good marriage then.
It's not impossible for her to even marry into the royal family.
What's more, they would also receive a reward from the Divine Martial King.
After returning to the capital, the Divine Martial King did not bestow any rewards upon anyone.
This was the first reward bestowed by the Divine Martial King upon his return to the capital, and its significance was different.
"Then thank you very much, Divine Martial King."
"Everyone, go and have some fun!"
Qin Wu waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse.
The matter of the Empress Dowager had passed, and there was no more excitement to be had, so they dispersed.
The Empress Dowager returned to the palace.
"As expected of a bastard's offspring, they dared to disrespect me. I will make them pay the price."
The Empress Dowager smashed an unknown number of things in a fit of rage.
"Mother, why are you so angry? He's just a little scoundrel. We'll settle the score with him sooner or later."
A voice sounded.
A middle-aged man walked into the hall.
This man is the Empress Dowager's biological son, the current Prince of Jiangnan.
"My son, I must avenge this humiliation. What are your plans?"
The Empress Dowager saw that it was the Prince of Jiangnan who had arrived.
That's why he didn't hold back his temper.
There was no further vandalism or looting.
"If Qin Wu wants to marry, then I will not grant his wish. What would he do if he knew that on his wedding night, his queen was defiled?"
"The King of Jiangnan said sinisterly."
He was determined to make Qin Wu pay the price today, to let everyone know that he had married a slut who had lost her virginity.
He has no idea how smug he is now, or how pathetic he will be next.
"Good, good, my son has the best ideas."
After hearing the King of Jiangnan's plan, the Empress Dowager burst into laughter.
She also wanted to see what Qin Wu's expression would be when he found out that his queen had been played with by lowly people.
In the wedding room.
"Elder sister, something's not right. The incense in this room is not right."
Sitting in the bridal chamber, Jiang Pingle suddenly felt a little dizzy.
She was already an expert in medicine and poisons, and immediately noticed something was wrong.
Just by smelling the incense in front of the burner, you can tell there's something wrong with the incense.
"Little sister, what's going on?"
Jiang Pingxin also sensed something was wrong.
However, she was ignorant of medicine and poisons and did not know the situation, so she thought that she was just feeling unwell.
Unexpectedly, the problem was with the incense in the room.
"Someone is plotting against us."
"Yuqin".
Jiang Pingle called out to the door.
"princess."
Yuqin entered the room.
"Yuqin, someone has tampered with the incense burner. I'm afraid someone is plotting against me."
Jiang Pingle said.
Yuqin immediately stepped forward to check.
Sure enough, they discovered that there was something wrong with the incense in the incense burner; someone had put an aphrodisiac in it.
"Your Highness, we can't stay in this room any longer."
"This servant will immediately arrange a new bridal chamber for the Princess."
After Yuqin finished speaking, she led the Jiang sisters away from the bridal chamber.
After leaving the bridal chamber, Jiang Pingle whispered instructions to Yuqin.
"Your Highness, rest assured, Yuqin understands. She will definitely arrange this matter properly. Anyone who dares to lay a hand on Your Highness is courting death."
As Yuqin spoke, a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
As Qin Wu's personal maid, she was no pushover either.
Many people have died at her hands.
It's fair to say that no one in the entire Divine Martial Prince's Mansion is easy to deal with.
Everyone's hands are stained with blood.
The willingness to kill is the most basic quality of the people in the Divine Martial King's Mansion.
After Yuqin rearranged the wedding room for Jiang Pingle and Jiang Pingxin, she sent people to be on high alert.
Of course, all of this was done in secret.
Didn't alarm anyone.
They also arranged for two women to be in the room, wanting to see who dared to plot against their queen.
Once they find out who's behind this, they'll show them what happens when someone dares to scheme against their Divine Martial Royal Palace.
Sure enough, not long after it got dark, someone sneaked out of the bridal chamber and quietly slipped inside.
The secret guards of the Divine Martial Prince's Mansion saw all of this clearly.
However, they did not alert anyone and even locked the door.
"Your Highness, someone has already infiltrated the former bridal chamber."
Yu Shu came to Qin Wu's side and whispered her report.
"Keep an eye on them. I want to see who dares to scheme against my queen and my Divine Martial Royal Palace."
Qin Wu still maintained a lazy expression.
Outsiders have no idea what major event is about to happen.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Yu Shu accepted the order and left.
"Little Jiu, come here and have a few drinks with me."
The Emperor of Eastern Qin had been keeping an eye on Qin Wu's situation, and upon seeing what had just happened, he guessed what had likely occurred.
Qin Wu, holding a wine cup, approached the Emperor of Eastern Qin.
"Has something happened?"
The Emperor of Eastern Qin inquired.
"Hmm, someone has added aphrodisiac to the incense in my bridal chamber, and now they've even sent someone into my bridal chamber."
Qin Wu sneered.
"What? Can you find out who it is?"
The Emperor of Eastern Qin never expected that someone would dare to plot against his daughter-in-law in the palace.
"The investigation is still ongoing, but it should be completed soon."
"However, Father, don't blame me for being ruthless once I find out."
Qin Wu said.
He was also giving the Emperor of Eastern Qin a warning in advance.
Anyone who dares to take action in the palace must be a member of the royal family; otherwise, it would be impossible to do so within the palace grounds.
"What are your plans? Do you have any suspects?"
The Emperor of Eastern Qin inquired.
"With suspicions, my brothers would absolutely not dare to act recklessly regarding my wedding."
"But that doesn't mean anyone wouldn't dare. The Empress Dowager's sudden return to the palace was definitely not just a coincidence."
Qin Wu already had a guess in his mind.
This is very likely the work of the Empress Dowager.
Only the Empress Dowager could mobilize so many people in the palace to cooperate without being discovered.
"I understand. If it really is her, you may do whatever you wish."
The Emperor of Eastern Qin remained silent for a moment before speaking.
