Only Meng Fuyao was able to see her expression.

Princess Lotus was actually laughing.

Her laugh was calm and pure, and using a voice only the two of them could hear, she said quietly, "Meng Fuyao, I came to offer you a toast, not for you to shame me."

"You came here to harm me." Meng Fuyao too laughed as she replied lowly, "Of course you wouldn't be so stupid as to add poison to the wine, but, you prepared something over at your ignorant brother's side…" Her laughter turned hostile as she said, "How courteous of you, how persuasive of you, and with so many people supporting you, I would have to drink if I didn't want to lose face. But no matter how much I think, compared with your pride, my life is worth ten thousand times more, so I'll have to disappoint you."
