In order to avoid spilling the wine, Cheng Rui was so scared that he quickly put the wine glass on the table.

He finally managed to steady himself, and said with a look of displeasure on his face, "Prince Li, why are you so unkind? You almost knocked me to the ground. You have to drink a glass of wine as punishment!"

Li Wang pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Okay, I owe you this. Please drink with me!"

After saying that, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all.

Seeing his actions, Cheng Rui was shocked.

Don’t drink the wrong one!

Seeing that the cup he drank was the one he had secretly drugged before, he finally felt relieved.

He didn't hesitate any longer and said immediately: "Prince Li, my stomach suddenly feels uncomfortable. I have to go to the toilet first. We can continue drinking when we come back!"

Prince Li nodded: "Okay, there are guards outside, they will take you there!"

Cheng Rui didn't really go to the toilet. He wanted to quickly send a message to his daughter, asking her to take advantage of the opportunity and rush in. The effect of the medicine on King Li would soon take effect.

However, he did not expect that he would be taken into a guest room.

Then he saw Cheng Feifei. He was about to say that Prince Li was alone now and asked her to go see him in the name of looking for her father, when she felt a surge of evil fire in her body for no reason.

He gritted his teeth and his eyes turned blood red in an instant.

Cheng Feifei was startled. She subconsciously stepped forward to support Cheng Rui and asked, "Father, what's wrong with you?"

It would have been better if she didn't help him, but when she got close to him, Cheng Rui's remaining sanity completely collapsed.

He couldn't help himself any longer and reached out to grab her arm.

This was a terrible thing. Cheng Feifei screamed in shock: "Father, what are you doing?"

Cheng Rui turned a deaf ear and continued to attack her.

Cheng Feifei turned around and ran away, and he chased her.

Now, the figures of the father and daughter chasing each other soon caused a sensation. Li Wang and Lin Yiwan rushed over and saw that Cheng Rui looked like he wanted to eat Cheng Feifei.

Lin Yiwan was stunned. She murmured, "Miss Cheng, are you and Prince Rui biologically father and daughter?"

Cheng Feifei wished she could find a hole to crawl into at this moment. It was so embarrassing.

She said anxiously, "Madam Hou, please take a look at my father. He has suddenly gone mad. I don't know what's going on!"

At this time, Cheng Rui's eyes were glued to Cheng Feifei, and his saliva kept dripping out.

He was mumbling something incoherently, as if he had dementia.

The noble ladies who rushed over after hearing the noise were all stunned. No one had expected that Cheng Feifei and her daughter would actually perform such a big drama?

To avoid misunderstandings, Cheng Feifei quickly shouted, "My father must have drunk something to become like this. Someone is trying to harm him!"

Prince Li's face immediately darkened. "Why? Do you think I deliberately made your father behave like this? Fine, I'll give you justice!"

He looked at Lin Yiwan: "Investigate, make sure to find out why Cheng Rui has become like this!"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "Yes!"

She quickly took a silver needle and knocked Cheng Rui unconscious, then took his pulse.

After a moment, she said with a complicated expression: "King Rui took a heavy dose of the drug, which is why he became like this. However, his body has suffered great damage before. Even if he wants to do this, he doesn't have the strength!"

Cheng Feifei's eyes widened in disbelief. "How could this happen? Why would my father take this medicine when he's fine?"

Lin Yiwan helplessly spread her hands and said, "I don't know either. You don't think my father gave him the poison, do you? I just checked his nails, and the powder was stuck in the cracks. That means he did it himself!"

Cheng Feifei felt guilty, ashamed and angry at the same time.

My father is so stupid. How come all the medicine that was supposed to be given to Prince Li ended up in his own mouth?

Now, the father and daughter have lost face in Liwang Mansion. How can they stay in Shengjing City?

She didn't dare to say anything more and quickly ordered Cheng Rui to be taken away in a dejected manner.

Even though King Li repeatedly warned everyone not to spread rumors about the barbarian King Rui and his daughter, their scandals were still spread among the people of Sheng Dynasty.

After Cheng Rui woke up, he heard all the gossip and almost vomited blood.

He clenched his fists tightly and said with anger on his face, "Prince Li has deceived me like this, I will never give up!"

Cheng Feifei walked in and said, "What else can you do? We've become the laughing stock of Shengjing City. How on earth did you manage to drink all that powder?"

I get angry when I mention Cheng Rui, he doesn’t know!

He clearly placed the wine glass in front of King Li, so when did he replace it?

He said with a frustrated look on his face: "Can it be saved?"

Cheng Feifei said disappointedly, "The Li Palace is now on guard, and our reputation as father and daughter has been ruined. Naturally, we can't stay in Shengjing City any longer!"

A flicker of resentment flashed across Cheng Rui's gloomy face. He said angrily, "Are we going to leave Shengjing City in disgrace? Not only will I lose my crossbow team, but even my brother will laugh at me, and I won't be able to hold my head up among the barbarians!"

Cheng Feifei was silent for a moment before she slowly spoke, "Father, Lin Yiwan took your pulse earlier and said you have a hidden illness. You have the will but not the strength. Do you understand what she meant?"

Cheng Rui retorted almost subconsciously: "She's talking nonsense!"

Cheng Feifei mused, "Whether she's talking nonsense or not, you can find a doctor to check her pulse and see for yourself!"

Cheng Rui immediately ordered someone to call a doctor. After taking his pulse, he hurriedly asked, "How is my health?"

The doctor said solemnly, "Your Highness's meridians are weak, and it will be difficult for him to have children in the future. He must also remain calm, otherwise, evil wind will enter his body and he will not live long!"

After hearing this, Cheng Rui was so shocked that he fell into a coma.

The doctor quickly gave him acupuncture and finally brought him back to consciousness.

He murmured sadly, "I never thought I, Cheng Rui, would come to Shengjing City to seek justice for my son Cheng Xun. Who would have thought that I would lose not only my son but also my soldiers!"

Cheng Feifei was also extremely angry. How could she not guess that all this was caused by the Marquis's wife, Lin Yiwan?

She took a deep breath and said through gritted teeth, "Father, we must not swallow this loss!"

Cheng Rui sighed helplessly: "What other hope can there be?"

Cheng Feifei did not answer, but quickly sent the doctor away.

She ordered someone to write a farewell letter to the Emperor of Sheng Dynasty, and did not go to the palace to say goodbye. She took Cheng Rui directly on her journey home.

The crossbow team naturally stayed in Sheng Dynasty. Even though Cheng Rui was reluctant, he had no choice.

He is now immersed in the pessimistic idea that he is no longer capable of doing anything, and he finds everything unpleasant.

He stared at Cheng Feifei, who had remained silent the entire time, with discontent. "Ever since leaving Shengjing City, you've been acting like this. What on earth do you want to do? Do you think anything good will happen to us father and daughter if we return to the barbaric land?"
