It's actually a game, but it's just a group of people trying to push themselves away from each other. For example, my fifth sister isn't good at interacting with others, so everyone should cooperate and let her have a good time. Or maybe my fifth sister just came back from the countryside and hasn't participated in such a big scene before, so everyone should take care of her and the like.
Although this way of thinking was very refined, this was the only way Sheng Yan could describe it.
They were all Sheng Jia s, especially Sheng Yi Qiu who was a candidate for Grand Imperial Consort.
"What game, is it interesting?"
"Of course, those who are eliminated will be punished by a cup of wine. Of course, those who are eliminated won't just sit on the sidelines and choose to support others. If the one who supports loses, then you can drink a cup for her."
F * ck, it's actually such a game. However, even in the worst case scenario, he wouldn't be able to drink a single jar of wine.
"Alright, this game is a bit interesting. How many of us are going to play?"
"Thirty people, no one from the royal family will participate. There are also a few merchant Miss s who have already gone back because they are not feeling well, so thirty people will participate, how about it?"
"Mhmm, alright, I'll see you then."
Sheng Yan sat quietly at the side, opting not to let the people of the imperial family participate as she didn't want the Xuanyuan Linlang to come up and cause trouble or as the special care of the Xuanyuan Li.
Lan Qin sat behind Sheng Yan, carrying an item with him, without taking a step away from him, since these were all common objects, it would be hard to deal with them if they were drugged, and the clothes that were placed in the tent were just clothes, at most, she would throw them away.
"Miss, are you ready?"
"Don't worry, I'm already prepared. You just need to cooperate with me later."
Sheng Yan gave Lan Qin a Calming Pellet, but she was still unsure of what kind of appearance she was going to pretend to have. After all, she did not get the wine, and did not know what kind of medicine she would use.
Fortunately, he had concocted the kind that could cure hundreds of pills. Otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
After a while, all the members of the royal family arrived and watched the fight from the side.
These people were obviously up to no good, and all of them were holding hands with one another. Sheng Yan naturally could not join them, but she was already prepared to be eliminated in the first round.
As expected, Sheng Yan was the only one who did not sit on the cushion in the first round.
Sheng Yan picked up the cup first and finished it in one gulp. However, she looked straight at Sheng Si En, as if giving her some kind of hint.
In the second round, Sheng Yan bet on Sheng Si En. In the end, Sheng Si En was pushed down, and after that, no matter who Sheng Yan bet on, they would lose.
But it was still only five rounds. Sheng Yan had already smelled the wine before and it was only simple bewitching medicine.
Not even reaching the last round, Sheng Yan stood up dizzily.
"I don't have enough alcohol. I'll be going back first. You guys continue playing."
"Fifth Sister, are you alright?"
"No problem, you guys continue to play. Don't ruin the mood because of me."
Sheng Yan left immediately with Lan Qin's support.
Sheng Yi Qiu saw that the plan had already begun, so the next thing she needed to do was to sing by the bonfire. Taking this opportunity, she sent a message to First Prince, saying that he wanted to see him.
Like this, the First Prince saw that Sheng Yan had eaten seductive medicine, what kind of thoughts would she have? Furthermore, the seductive fragrance had already been prepared in the tent of the First Prince.
After preparing everything, Sheng Yi Qiu returned to the campfire to avoid any suspicions from others. However, she realized that Sheng Si En had also disappeared.
Before Sheng Yan could even enter the tent, she was stopped by two palace maids.
"Fifth Miss, First Prince invites you."
"Oh? It's not convenient for me to go. "
"It's fine, First Prince said that he has something to discuss with Fifth Miss of the Sheng Family."
Sheng Yan nodded, and told Lan Qin to wait here for him.
Actually, Sheng Yan wanted to find Sheng Si En, but these two palace maids were really troublesome.
The two palace maids immediately saw Sheng Yan as someone else and left. The two of them then left the place as if Sheng Yan was someone else.
Sheng Yan sneered, and saw that there were shadows of people moving around Xuan Yuan Nuo's tent, so it was likely that he had already returned.
After finding Sheng Si En, Sheng Yan was slightly drunk.
"Elder sister, I saw First Prince returning to the tent just now. He said that he wanted to see you."
"What? Meet me?"
"That's right, and he even said to have the two palace maids come over to look for elder sister. I wonder if elder sister saw them?"
"No, why would he look for me?"
"He didn't say anything, but from the looks of it, he seemed to be in a hurry. It seems like he did it for the day."
After she tidied up her makeup and clothes, she followed Sheng Yan.
Arriving outside the tent, Sheng Yan said in a low voice: "That's right, it seems that First Prince doesn't want others to know that you two are meeting. Big sister should go inside and extinguish the lights."
Actually, extinguishing the light was a secret signal, as long as Sheng Yi Qiu saw this scene, she would be sure that Xuan Yuan Nuo and Sheng Yan were together inside, and would be at ease while waiting for tomorrow's scandal.
After arranging everything, and hearing the warm sounds coming from inside the tent, Sheng Yan walked back proudly.
However, he was pulled aside by the Xuanyuan Li.
The dense forest shrouded their bodies.
Sheng Yan's body was locked by the Xuanyuan Li. Behind him was a huge tree.
"Prince, what are you doing?"
"I didn't expect you to have designs on the First Prince."
"Me? Ha, you're wrong, Sheng Yi Qiu asked for it, who do you blame? "
The Xuanyuan Li frowned, "Is this the reason why you saved Sheng Si En in the day?"
Sheng Yan nodded his head, "Seems like you are not stupid. Originally, First Prince was already interested in Sheng Si En, but I was just playing along with the flow. Even if Sheng Yi Qiu was the candidate, no one said anything about someone with a higher status being more favored."
Xuanyuan Li pulled back her arm and hugged it. She was surprised to see that the woman in front of her had become a schemer.
"What surprises do you have to show?"
"A lot. What? Are you interested?"
"Nope."
The two simple words were like cold water poured over Sheng Yan's head, but she did not mind, after all, they were currently being obstructed by the illusory figure of the Small Five, but Sheng Yan was not anxious at all. After all, in her impression, the Xuanyuan Li was already hers.
"Then Prince can let me go now?"
"No, you are too suspicious."
"Then, what happened after you stripped me naked and interrogated me?"
The corner of the Xuanyuan Li's mouth twitched, she never expected the woman to speak so boldly.
"Isn't that the way to interrogate criminals?"
"Ahem, there's still no need to take off your clothes."
"Oh, then what do we need to do?"
The Xuanyuan Li looked at Sheng Yan from head to toe using the moonlight. Her beauty seemed to be born, there was actually a hint of charm about her, and it was impossible for her to reject him.
