Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 344 The Empress, the Hostage from the Neighboring Country Has Returned in Battle (Part 28)

Ji Yu'an understood that drinking a glass of wine first was the best choice at this moment.

Then let the eldest princess and the second princess also taste the wine.

Although Ji Yu'an had never tasted the wine of Wanxiang Kingdom, the wine that his uncle and his family carried with them must not be some kind of adulterated or fake wine.

The taste is always acceptable. It's just that there are slight differences in flavor.

That way, other people will drink together too.

This poison shouldn't be so potent that it would cause immediate poisoning upon ingestion.

There should be enough time to pour a glass of wine for everyone.

When everyone drinks the wine of Vientiane for the first time, whether out of curiosity or other reasons, they all take a sip to taste it.

In this way, he achieved his goal; all he had to do was wait for the poison to take effect.

The bottle was opened.

Jiang He leaned forward, wanting to smell the aroma of the wine up close.

"Hmm, this wine smells quite good."

Jiang He nodded.

When Ji Yu'an saw Jiang He suddenly move, he thought she had discovered something. It turned out she was just smelling the wine. He didn't know that Jiang He was also a drunkard.

"Yes, this wine smells quite good."

"Second Princess, may I pour Yu'an a cup first?"

Ji Yu'an smiled as he looked at the Second Princess.

"Okay, you can try this first cup."

"Someone, pour the wine."

"Wait, why is there white powder in this wine? What is that? Is this wine safe to drink?"

Jiang He stopped the servant pouring the wine and pointed to the white powder on the mouth of the wine jar.

The second princess also looked over.

There was indeed some white powder on the mouth of the wine jar.

You can't tell unless you look closely.

Ji Yu'an was also taken aback by Jiang He's three questions.

No way, was my uncle so careless in poisoning? There was even powder left on the rim of the wine jar.

Ji Yu'an also examined the wine jar carefully and found that there was indeed a little powder on it.

It may have gotten on it when the poison was being administered.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, you may not know this, but I've heard my uncle say that this jar of wine is characterized by the presence of white powder."

This is the characteristic of this wine.

It is these powders that give this wine its unique flavor.

"Second Princess, let Yu'an have a taste first."

Ji Yu'an could only rely on the fact that no one had ever tasted the wine of Wanxiang Kingdom, and even if they had, it was impossible for them to fully understand the wine of Wanxiang Kingdom in order to make up stories.

He had already taken the antidote beforehand, so he wouldn't be in any danger even if he drank this wine.

"So that's how it is. The wine from Vientiane is truly unique."

It's very different from our Phoenix Cry Kingdom.

"We really need to savor it properly and see what's so special about this wine."

Jiang He seemed to believe Ji Yu'an's words.

The second princess gestured to the servants to pour wine for Ji Yu'an.

"Second Princess, may I feed Yu'an a cup?"

The second princess picked up the wine cup and fed Ji Yu'an the wine.

The taste wasn't anything special, just a bit spicier.

At least the taste is fairly mellow.

I wonder if the eldest and second princesses would even consider this wine.

Even if they didn't like it, it wouldn't be a loss to poison the two of them by not letting everyone drink the wine.

If everyone gets to try it, he'll make a fortune today.

"Good wine. Second Princess, Yu'an would like to have another cup."

"You keep drinking one cup after another, is it really that delicious?"

Seeing how much Ji Yu'an liked it, the second princess couldn't help but want to try it too.

If this wine is really that good, she will definitely go to the Kingdom of Vientiane to buy some.

"Yu'an thinks it's pretty good. Why don't you, Second Princess, try some?"

The second princess gestured to the servants to pour her a cup as well.

"Would the First Princess like to have a drink too?"

Ji Yu'an looked at the empty wine glass in front of Jiang He.

"Eldest sister, you should try it too, this wine tastes pretty good."

As they were talking, the second princess had already drunk a cup of wine.

Ji Yu'an looked at the empty wine cup in the Second Princess's hand and began to get excited.

That's it, let him drink, let him drink it all.

The second princess had her servants pour wine for the eldest princess, herself, and Ji Yu'an.

"Come on, Yu'an, let's have a drink."

"Eldest sister, you drink too."

The second princess fed Ji Yu'an the drink, and then drank it herself.

"Second Princess, you can't eat alone."

We're here today to attend a wedding.

Why are you so focused on drinking?

"Give us a glass of this Vientiane wine to try too!"

Some guests, seeing the second princess drinking so happily, became quite curious about the wine from the Kingdom of Wanxiang.

I'm used to the wine from Fengming Kingdom, and I really want to try this one that tastes different.

"Alright, then let's all drink together..."

The second princess raised her wine cup, about to invite everyone to drink together, but after swaying twice, she collapsed.

He lay on the ground, unconscious.

This unexpected turn of events threw everyone into a panic.

What's wrong with the Second Princess?

Hurry and fetch the imperial physician.

Ji Yu'an watched the Second Princess collapse, guessing that the poison had taken effect. The poison had taken effect far too quickly, much faster than he had anticipated.

Was the poison his uncle prepared for him really that potent?

Not to mention that no one had drunk any wine yet, even the cup in front of the eldest princess was still full.

Jiang He had just raised her glass to drink when this unexpected turn of events made her put it down again.

We were so close to taking care of Jiang He as well.

"Something terrible has happened, Second Princess!"

The hall was in complete chaos.

Jiang He told everyone to stay in their places and not to move.

No one is allowed to touch any of the tea, snacks, dishes, or wine pots on the table.

The second princess is clearly poisoned.

Others are also paying attention to their physical condition.

We don't know what caused the poisoning yet, but others might have been poisoned as well.

Suddenly, everyone realized they had been tricked too.

Some felt dizzy, some felt abdominal pain, some felt palpitations, and some felt short of breath.

Ji Yu'an looked at the others, each one of them trembling with fear of death.

He didn't poison them, so how could they all be feeling unwell?

It's a pity that Jiang He wasn't poisoned to death as well.

Given the current situation, Jiang He could no longer drink that glass of wine.

If he weren't paralyzed, he would have risked everything to force Jiang He to drink that cup of wine.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs".

I don't know what kind of poison my uncle used.

Will the imperial physician be able to detect it later?

The powder from the mouth of the wine jar has already dissolved into the wine after I poured it.

This poison was colorless and odorless, and it can no longer be seen now.

If the imperial physicians can't find the cause, I might be able to escape this calamity.

Since he drank the wine and was fine, we can rule out the possibility that the wine was poisoned.

There are still a bunch of people below complaining of feeling unwell, which might confuse the issue.

Ji Yu'an could only hope that the poison would not be detected.

Ji Yu'an felt a sudden abdominal pain and collapsed.

He fell off the wheelchair and landed on the ground.

Unlike the Second Princess, Ji Yu'an did not immediately lose consciousness.

He didn't faint, but he felt a lot of pain.

The pain started in my abdomen and spread throughout my body.

Even my hands and feet, which had been numb for a long time, started to hurt.

The pain was so intense that he wished he could die.

But he couldn't even touch the sore spot; he could only writhe on the ground, letting out painful screams.
