“I will punish you with a cup,” she again filled his cup and handed it to him, speaking tenderly: “Blame you for kicking me off the bed.” It seems the previous cup was not intense enough, unexpectedly not causing the anticipated heat, so she was preparing to administer another strong dose, ensuring he would soon be begging her! A good revenge for her humiliation.
Ming Lenchen gazed at her with tender eyes as she spoke eloquently beside him. Today she was unusually attentive – there must be a trick, but he wanted to surrender, even if it meant getting drunk. He could dive into her gentle embrace; dying under the peony flowers, even as a ghost would be romantic!
Without much thought, he drank it all in one gulp, then put down the cup, about to embrace the beauty beside him. Unexpectedly, she had already fled far away, as if he were a terrifying snake or beast. This action only increased his suspicions – there must be something in this wine. He had always been highly alert, yet this time he had easily fallen into a woman’s trap.
Her avoidance made him understand that he might have been drugged. Otherwise, she, who was usually reserved, would not be so attentive or eager to toast him. He shook his slightly dizzy head, trying to maintain his remaining rationality, and approached her.
His approach terrified her. After all, she knew the reason best. The drug in the wine was not an ordinary sleeping potion, but an aphrodisiac that would make one unable to stop! Imperial Doctor Liu had repeatedly warned her to use it in moderation. She had thought him too verbose, but now she realized the drug’s effects were extraordinarily powerful and shocking.
“Your Majesty, aren’t you feeling unwell? Your face looks like a monkey’s bottom, how interesting,” Mei Siyu knew she was in grave danger but still couldn’t resist teasing him, considering it revenge for being kicked before. Who told him to be so heartless then? Now she was giving him a small lesson!
Thank you for providing the text.
Thank heavens, her appearance was just right! If not for her, chastity might have been lost!
