Poison

Su Ruoxi felt extremely amused while looking at Su Ruoqi's hypocritical and cautious behavior. Hence, she took a very long time to finish his breakfast…

"Xi-er, where is your handmaiden?" Su Ruoqi asked after glancing around and noticing the absence of Mo Lian.

"I have sent Mo Lian back to look after Baby. Baby is only five years old and is still a little child. My Master is an old man, so he won't be as attentive when looking after someone!" Su Ruoxi spouted nonsense in all seriousness.

"Ohh, and I was wondering why I don't see her!" Su Ruoqi stared into Su Ruoxi's eyes for a long while, and it did not seem like she was lying, which put Su Ruoqi's heart at rest.

"Hurry up and eat, Xi-er! When you are done, I'll bring you for a tour around the lake!" Su Ruoqi hurried upon seeing the dishes placed in front of Su Ruoxi.

"Mm, alright. Eldest Sister, do eat too! These dishes are really…" Su Ruoxi felt her vision blurring as she trailed off.

"Thud…" She collapsed onto the table.

"Xi-er. Xi-er, what's wrong? Wake up?" Su Ruoqi exclaimed as she stood up, walked over, and shook Su Ruoxi's body.

After ascertaining that Su Ruoxi had fainted, a sinister smile appeared on Su Ruoqi's face as she ordered: "Someone come over and carry her into the Second Miss' room!"

After giving her commands, she turned around and left the Jade Garden…

The unconscious Su Ruoxi was carried into Su Ruolin's room, where there were already servant girls waiting.

"Eldest Sister, how was it? What about that servant girl?" Su Ruolin inquired anxiously upon seeing Su Ruoqi.

"That servant girl has left long ago to accompany the little child born out of wedlock, so the good-for-nothing is here alone! This is even better. Once she marries the Crown Prince, there will be no one standing in our way anymore!" Su Ruoqi said with a cold smile.

"Alright. Hurry up and change her clothes! Be quick!" Su Ruolin looked at the few servant girls and commanded immediately.

The unconscious Su Ruoxi had to restrain herself from killing the servant girls who were touching and manhandling her body. If not, her efforts would have gone down the drain…

Heaven knew that as an assassin, she hated having people near her the most. In her past life, those near her were already drinking tea with Hades…

Finally, a bright red wedding gown was adorned on her body by the few servant girls. Her face was slightly touched up with heavy makeup as well. They had to admit that even with such heavy makeup, Su Ruoxi was still flawlessly beautiful…

She was so beautiful that Su Ruoqi and Su Ruolin's eyes burned with much jealousy upon seeing her. The two sisters glanced at each other and reached a consensus. Su Ruolin looked at the servant girls and commanded, "The rest of you can wait outside, and escort the bride out later. I have something to tell my sister!"

"Understood!" The few servant girls exited the room with no qualms.

"Little Sister, what are these?" Su Ruoqi asked in confusion upon seeing the two—one white and one red—small porcelain bottles that her sister, Su Ruolin, took out.

"This white one is called Madam Ghost! As long as it is applied to one's face or skin, after 12 hours, one's skin will start shedding bit by bit. Then, one's flesh will also begin to scatter layer by layer until there's nothing left but bones. The entire process took about an hour, and most importantly, Madam Ghost did not have an antidote!

"This one was called ecstasy. Once consumed, even a woman of virtue would become a loose woman. One would have to have intercourse with men for three days and three nights before the poison can be detoxified, or she will have to await death from ecstasy!" Su Ruolin explained with a somewhat twisted expression. "

Hearing what Su Ruolin had said, Su Ruoqi asked in shock, "Ruolin, where did you get these poisons from? If there are no antidotes, what should we do if this good-for-nothing dies?"

"Eldest Sister, do you actually think Mother will let her live? Not only that, but this good-for-nothing is no longer foolish. Do you think she won't get back at us after waking up and realizing that she has married a fool? When that happens, her first target for revenge will most likely be you, who had drugged her!" Su Ruolin persuaded good-naturedly, even though she secretly held Su Ruoqi in contempt upon seeing her fear.

Hearing that, Su Ruoqi became stunned. Then, she observed Su Ruoxi's stunning appearance and remembered the astuteness she had when she spoke. At the moment, Su Ruoqi's worries were instantly forgotten…

"Alright, let's hurry up and apply this poison on her face! Hmph, she was born with the face of a vixen! No wonder she has a child born out of wedlock, even though it has only been a few years since we last met! She is really shameless…" Su Ruoqi remarked snidely.

"Quick, feed her the poison. When she consumes it, it will take effect by nighttime!" Su Ruolin instructed with an evil smirk.

"Alright."

Su Ruoqi took the porcelain bottle Su Ruolin handed her. One of them fed Su Ruoxi the elixir, while the other moistened a handkerchief with the poisonous solution and applied it on Su Ruoxi's face…

They were soon looking at Su Ruoxi - whom they had poisoned in satisfaction with smug smiles…

"Someone come over and escort the bride out, and prepare for her to board the bridal sedan chair!" Su Ruoqi faced the door and shouted.

The few servant girls standing outside the door entered immediately and supported the unconscious Su Ruoxi—who had been sitting on a chair—as they escorted her out…

"Ruolin, I will be leaving first! You should not leave in case someone sees you!" Su Ruoqi glanced at her sister and advised.

"Alright, I got it!" Su Ruolin replied.

Su Ruoqi nodded before turning around and exiting the room, while Su Ruolin—who was just about to get up and change her clothes—suddenly fainted…

Mo Lian's figure appeared beside her. She glanced coldly at the unconscious Su Ruolin. If it wasn't because Master already had plans for this woman, she really wanted to kill this shameless woman with one tight slap for actually giving Master such vicious poisons…

Outside the Prince's mansion…

The bridal sedan chair the Crown Prince had sent to escort the bride had already been stationed outside for a long time. Since the Crown Prince was a fool, the Second Prince, Su Nan, handled the wedding ceremony in place of the Crown Prince…

The unconscious Su Ruoxi was directly placed inside the bridal sedan chair under the support of the few servant girls while the matchmaker muttered her blessings. Following the procession sent to escort the bride, Su Ruoxi arrived at the Crown Prince's mansion…

Then, when the simple ceremony ended, the bride was sent to the bridal chamber to await the groom…

The Second Prince changed his clothes and greeted the guests in place of the Crown Prince…

Although he was the Crown Prince of this country, it was not a secret that Su Feng was a fool from a very young age. Hence, the wedding was not that important. After all, there were not many people who were concerned about the dimwitted Crown Prince…

Upon Su Ruoqi's return, she told Lin Yue that everything was progressing well before excusing herself…

Now, they were only waiting for tomorrow to come. They would deal with whatever came their way when the Crown Prince's mansion realized what happened and began to reason with them. Once the Crown Prince's estate decided not to pursue the matter anymore, they could also be at ease…

Meanwhile, Su Ruoqi—who had just returned to her room—was knocked unconscious from behind the moment she had entered.

Su Su dusted her hands, looked at the woman on the floor, and commented, "You really like to poison people, huh? Well, I will let you have a wholesome experience of being poisoned yourself later!"

Right after that, she signaled with her hands, and a man dressed in black appeared from behind her. He carried Su Ruoqi—who was lying on the ground—and they instantly disappeared…
