Xie Qingyao had a kind smile on her face and handed the glass of fruit wine with added ingredients to Xie Qingman.

Xie Qingman lowered her head slightly, her breathing was rapid, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her palms. She had just secretly seen Xie Qingyao put her hands on the table and fiddled with it for a while, and then brought out the glass of wine. There must be something fishy about this glass of wine, and she didn't want to accept it.

Seeing that Xie Qingman didn't extend her hand, Xie Qingyao felt slightly annoyed. She leaned closer to Xie Qingman and whispered, "Sister Man'er, there's a misunderstanding between me and Sister Li'er. She doesn't like me, so I asked Sister Man'er to pass it on."

Xie Qingman lowered her head even lower and even put her hands behind her back. Although she was young, she knew that it was not appropriate to offend Xie Qingli.

Xie Qingyao's eyes turned cold. She leaned closer to Xie Qingman and said softly, "Sister Man'er, don't you want Concubine Luo to live a good life? I just need to mention it to grandma, and she will..."

Xie Qingman suddenly looked up and looked at Xie Qingyao in shock. She took the glass of fruit wine tremblingly, with pleading eyes.

Xie Qingyao curled her lips slightly and whispered, "That's right, don't say it was given by me, go!"

Xie Qingman turned around, interrupting the conversation between Xie Qingli and Xie Qingrong, and said tremblingly, "Big sister, please have some fruit wine." She avoided his gaze, and her hand holding the wine glass was shaking slightly.

Xie Qingli looked at Xie Qingman suspiciously. Her guilty look proved that this glass of wine must be extraordinary. So he said calmly, "I'm not thirsty. Sister Man'er, keep it for yourself!"

Xie Qingman was anxious, with cold sweat on her forehead. She hesitated and said, "I..."

"I'm thirsty, Sister Maner, please give me this glass of wine!" Xie Qingrong looked at the wine glass in Xie Qingman's hand. The wine was bright in color, like a red glow, and had a mellow fruity aroma. She couldn't help but want to take a sip.

Xie Qingman hurriedly withdrew her hand and whispered, "Sister Rong'er and I are still young and can't drink."

She looked at Xie Qingli pleadingly and said in a trembling voice, "This glass of wine is Yao..." She couldn't help but want to reveal Xie Qingyao, but she felt someone quietly tugging at her clothes, so she quickly changed her words and said, "It's for big sister to drink. It's sweet and delicious. Big sister, you should try it!"

Xie Qingli glanced at Xie Qingman coldly, reached out to take the wine glass, raised it to his lips and was about to drink it, but seemed to suddenly change his mind. He put the wine glass on the table and said lightly: "Sister Man'er, are you sure you want me to drink this glass of wine?"

There was a knockout drug added to the wine, and the dosage was not small. It seemed that the eldest princess's revenge had begun, but I didn't know why it was Xie Qingman.

Xie Qingli looked past Xie Qingman and looked suspiciously at Xie Qingyao and Xie Qingqi. Both of them could force Xie Qingman, but they were talking intimately at the moment and didn't seem to notice what was happening here.

Xie Qingman didn't dare to look directly into Xie Qingli's eyes. She lowered her head and nodded slightly, whispering, "Yeah."

Xie Qingli's eyes turned cold. There must be something hateful about pitiful people. Xie Qingman knew clearly that there was something wrong with the wine, but she still dared to do this. Was she thinking that she could not beat Xie Qingyao?

She picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then took a handkerchief to wipe the corner of her mouth, and swallowed an antidote pill under the cover of her sleeve.

Xie Qingyao glanced at Xie Qingli and saw that he had finished the wine, and she smiled triumphantly. From then on, the eldest princess would be her backer!

Xie Qingli kept glancing at Xie Qingyao and Xie Qingqi out of the corner of his eyes. Xie Qingyao showed that smile, and it was obvious who was behind Xie Qingman.

Just at this moment, Princess Roujia came over with Feng Yingying and several noble ladies, chatting and laughing. Feng Yingying seemed to suddenly see Xie Qingyao and stopped.

Xie Qingyao hurriedly stood up and said respectfully, "Miss Feng..."

Feng Yingying seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness before the banquet. She held Xie Qingyao's hand and called her affectionately, "Yao'er..." The two talked awkwardly and intimately for a long time.

Princess Roujia stood impatiently at the door of the banquet hall, watching Feng Yingying and Xie Qingyao chatting awkwardly.

The other girls of the Xie family had already stood up in a hurry and were just standing there. Only Xie Qingli was still sitting behind the desk, doing her own thing.

A maid brought a plate of chrysanthemum cakes and respectfully placed them on Xie Qingli's table. However, as she bowed and retreated, she accidentally stepped on the hem of Princess Roujia's skirt. Princess Roujia angrily pushed her, and she rushed straight towards Xie Qingli's table.

When the maid was pushed, Xie Qingli quickly stood up and took two steps back. The maid fell on the table, and soup splashed everywhere, but it had no effect on Xie Qingli.

Seeing that she had caused a big disaster, the little maidservant scrambled to her feet in a hurry. In an instant, several maidservants came over to clean up the mess, and Xie Qingli was surrounded by them.

In just a few breaths, everything was packed up, and the maids retreated in an instant. Princess Roujia and the others had also left long ago.

Xie Qingli's previous seat was already wet, and the maids moved her desk towards Xie Qingrong. Xie Qingrong happily pulled Xie Qingli to sit down, so that the two of them could talk more conveniently.

Xie Qingli's lips curled slightly, she touched her cuff quietly, and sure enough, she felt a warm and delicate object. A maid had just stuffed something in there during the chaos. She lowered her head slightly to check, and it was the beautiful jade on Princess Roujia's necklace!

Xie Qingli couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He originally thought that she had taken a knockout drug and then changed clothes to catch the adulterer, but he didn't expect it to be a frame-up! However, there was no need to knockout drug to frame her. Could it be a chain of tricks?

She frowned slightly, quietly called Leng Shuang, took out an antidote pill, and whispered: "Find a way to give this pill to Nong Ying, and ask Princess Fu'an to take it, just in case!" Leng Shuang took the order and quietly retreated.

Xie Qingli's gaze lightly swept towards Xie Qingyao. Xie Qingyao's face was still flushed with excitement because of Feng Yingying's initiative to show goodwill. She looked closely in the direction of Princess Roujia and Feng Yingying, hesitating whether she should also take the initiative to talk to Feng Yingying!

A group of Hu girls walked slowly onto the stage. They stood in the center and posed. When the sound of stringed instruments started, they began to dance passionately and unrestrainedly.

Xie Qingli looked at Xie Qingrong and said softly, "Sister Rong'er, it's a bit noisy here, let's go out and get some fresh air!"

Xie Qingrong had already stayed in the banquet hall long enough. She stood up happily and took Xie Qingli's hand and walked quickly through the aisle between Xie Qingyao and Xie Qingman.

As the two passed by, Xie Qingli's wide and flowing sleeves brushed past Xie Qingyao, but Xie Qingyao was so lost in hesitation that she didn't notice anything unusual.

After half a cup of tea, Xie Qingyao finally stopped worrying. She mustered up her courage and prepared to look for Feng Yingying. However, when she was tidying up her clothes, she found a beautiful jade in her arms. She picked it up and examined it carefully, and it turned out to be the one on Princess Roujia's necklace!

Her head pounded with a bang, and a surge of anger surged from her heart. That bitch Feng Yingying had just come to talk to her not to show her kindness, but to frame her...
