Xi Mengyao had already thought of ways out. Other than leaving, she really did not know what else she could do.
The most depressing thing was that even though the Prime Minister didn't know what he had eaten, he still came to her room at lunchtime and said a bunch of nonsense as he watched her.
He told his majesty that if she dared to do anything against his orders, the Emperor would be at the ends of the earth, and he would chase her down and punish her for disobeying his decree.
"Even if you want to ruin your own appearance, you can't. Unless you turn into ashes, there's no way you can escape. Dad would advise you to behave!"
Xi Mengyao fiddled with the food in front of him, but it was a lot more sumptuous.
Seeing her actions, the Prime Minister was somewhat nervous.
When Madame Yun said that she had already drugged the pill, he could not help but want to take a look as well.
At the beginning, Xi Mengyao didn't even know why he had come here. But now that she noticed his fleeting gaze, she instantly understood what had happened, and thoughtfully looked at the dishes in front of her.
However, he didn't move. He just held the chopsticks and walked around in a circle.
As expected, the Prime Minister's gaze had already begun to grow anxious.
Seeing that, Xi Mengyao was certain of it. She thought for a moment, then she put down her chopsticks and laughed: "Do you think you can stop me just by saying those words?"
The Prime Minister was speechless and could not refute what he said. He was so angry that he smiled and said, "Whatever you want to do, whatever you want to do. But you must understand that the prince and the emperor are not people you can deal with. Don't be willful."
"I'm not in the mood to be willful," Xi Mengyao said, but then her gaze fell on the food in front of him, "Don't say anymore, I don't care."
Then, she suddenly raised her head, looking at him with a faint smile: "Besides, I won't be fooled."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and took out a silver hairpin from the makeup table and inserted it into the bowl in front of her.
The Prime Minister's heart skipped a beat as he frowned at her. "What do you mean?"
Xi Mengyao also did not say anything, she only lowered her head to look at the silver hairpin, and it slowly turned black. She raised her eyebrows and took out the silver hairpin, handing it to the prime minister.
"..." This, this thing is actually poisonous! "
The Prime Minister was slightly speechless. He paused for a moment before reacting, wanting to call for help.
However, Xi Mengyao casually threw the silver hairpin on the ground and said, "It's poisonous. Moreover, I guess there's more than one poison in it.
"What!" When the Prime Minister heard this, his expression instantly changed.
"If father doesn't believe me, you can go to any of the doctors and clinics to ask." Xi Mengyao laughed, and her expression had already completely turned cold.
The Prime Minister did not know why, but when he saw Xi Mengyao like this, he felt cold behind his back.
Seeing that she could not finish the meal, Xi Mengyao put on the clothes and went back to sleep.
She didn't know what happened after that either. He only knew that the courtyard in Madame Yun was more lively than hers today.
However, she didn't want to watch the scene and felt annoyed listening to that. She decided to change out of the room and change into a new set of men's clothing. After thinking for a bit, she grabbed an iron mask and climbed over the wall.
Taking advantage of the moonlight, she walked along the street and saw the brightly lit Deyue Restaurant.
Thinking about the legend, Xi Mengyao raised her leg and walked in.
Attendant on the other side was already dozing off on the counter.
"Guest or hotel?"
"Drink." Xi Mengyao glanced at him, then threw the purse in front of him: "Bring me all the best wine you have here."
With that, Xi Mengyao directly went to the second floor.
Only then did the Attendant recognize the speaker, he nodded and weighed the money pouch in his hand, this weight gave him a shock, he immediately opened it to look, only to see there were a few heavy ingots of Origin Treasures inside, causing his eyes to light up, he saw that Xi Mengyao had already gone up there, and quickly shouted.
"One honored guest from the second floor!"
Xi Mengyao went upstairs. She had originally wanted to see the famous storyteller in the capital. Currently, the person sitting in the hall was the best dancers of the Pavilion of Radiance.
A bunch of wealthy young masters appeared on the second floor, calling out to their friends one by one. The place was bustling with noise and excitement.
She looked at the two little girls, but could not muster up any interest. She found a seat by the window and waited for someone to serve the dishes and wine before drinking one cup after another.
Everyone was talking about the important matters of the capital, and right now, the most talked about was only the two marriages next month.
Xi Mengyao was distracted listening, but she could not do anything about it. She couldn't think of any way to get the marriage over with, much less stop the mouth of those people who had nothing better to do than grind their teeth with.
She did not understand, why did Prince Jing have to marry someone like her if they did not want those beautiful ladies?
What marriage gift was he trying to pressure her for!
Why didn't the emperor see him so positive when he mentioned the marriage alliance? That fellow … It couldn't be that he wanted to tease her, right?
The more Xi Mengyao thought about it, the angrier she got, and the more bold she became in drinking.
Unexpectedly, after she drank half a jar of wine, a customer sitting at the table next to her walked over shakily with a wine cup in hand.
Xi Mengyao didn't bother with him and turned around. She only raised her head and downed another cup of wine.
"Yo, where did this servant come from? He's very handsome."
After the man came over, he ignored everything and directly sat next to Xi Mengyao.
After saying that, he reached out to wrap his arm around her waist!
After Xi Mengyao heard this, she stared at him coldly, "Scram!"
The man seemed to be too drunk to hear what Xi Mengyao was saying, and upon seeing Xi Mengyao speak, he walked over and laughed: "Young Noble, what are you saying, speak louder!"
As he spoke, he turned back to his table and gave a presumptuous laugh.
From the looks of it, he treated Xi Mengyao as a servant that came here often to look for wine.
In this golden age, other than a few prostitutes, the good things about Long Yang were also flourishing. Business had always progressed according to the times, so naturally, there was a few shops beside the street that were specially opened to men who were good men and were looking for a place to have fun.
This man was clearly an expert, and as he spoke, he was about to touch Xi Mengyao's face.
Xi Mengyao was also drunk, being treated like that, she was enraged, and without caring about him, she stood up, and fiercely smashed the jar of wine in her hand onto the ground.
With a loud 'bang', that person was stunned. Just then, Xi Mengyao pushed him hard. That person did not seem to expect that he would be pushed to the ground like that.
He immediately became furious and crawled up while pointing at Xi Mengyao's nose: "You bastard, what are you doing!"
"Disgusting." Xi Mengyao cursed coldly, not willing to deal with this kind of drunk person. She had originally come out to relax, not wanting to cause any more trouble, lest she go back and nag again. She took out her mask, put it on her face, and turned to leave.
While muttering, "We can't even find a quiet place to drink!"
She was already feeling a little drunk, and her steps were a little unsteady.
He didn't want the people behind him to see her like this, but they thought he was trying to imitate his lameness. He was completely enraged.
