Chapter 205: Adult Games

He said calmly, "Although it's just a rumor, there are people who believe it. As the saying goes, 'the nail that sticks out gets hammered.' Third Imperial Brother led troops in battle and achieved great military exploits. Not only is he a top-tier martial artist, but his skills in arranging troops, deploying formations, and training the army are also outstanding, even striking fear into the distant Xiongnu Kingdom."

"Of course, the ones most afraid aren't people from other countries, but our own people from Dongchen Kingdom."

Luo Feizhou stopped there. He leaned back lazily in his chair, picked up the wine goblet on the table, and downed it in one go.

But his gaze lingered on Ji Yuntang meaningfully.

He was sure Ji Yuntang was smart enough to catch his meaning.

"Prince Qi, are you suggesting that Luo Jingshen, worried my husband's brilliance would steal his thunder as Crown Prince, went out of his way to poison him and turn him into this?" Ji Yuntang laughed.

Admittedly, Luo Jingshen had a motive, but he probably didn't have the nerve then.

Luo Feizhou was obviously trying to pin it on Luo Jingshen, let him take the heat, so he could use Ji Yuntang to deal with the Crown Prince and reap the rewards from the sidelines.

What a clever two-for-one scheme. He sure played it smooth.

Luo Feizhou missed the sarcasm in Ji Yuntang's eyes. Figuring his plan was working, he smiled and praised, "Third Sister-in-law, you're sharp; you catch on fast."

Ji Yuntang suddenly stood up, grabbed the tea cup beside her, and threw it right in Luo Feizhou's face, her voice cold and mocking.

"Without proof, why should I, the Princess, believe you? Just because you flap your mouth?"

"The Crown Prince is already the emperor's appointed successor. What motive does he have to harm my husband? Is he just bored out of his mind?"

Luo Feizhou snapped back from the splash, and his smile slowly vanished.

Just as he was about to argue back, he heard her say again, "Let me guess, Prince Qi, your next line is gonna be that the Crown Prince isn't as good as I think, and he's actually a heartless, shameless, cheap little weasel, right?"

Luo Feizhou froze, his face contorted. "How'd you know?"

Ji Yuntang ignored his question and just looked at him mockingly.

"If you insist the Crown Prince has a motive to harm my husband, then what about you? As Prince Qi, the only son of Consort Chu, whose maternal grandfather is a powerful general with big military clout, and second only to the Crown Prince in rank, did you also participate?"

"After all, you want this position too. My husband's a threat to you. You want him dead too, don't you?"

"Tell me, which hand did you use to hurt him? Let me figure out how to punish you."

"How about I give you a taste of getting your face ruined?"

Luo Feizhou: "..."

Luo Feizhou: "!!!"

He watched in panic as Ji Yuntang whipped out a knife from her waist and started aiming it at his face.

Luo Feizhou's heart instantly panicked, his mind racing with 'WTF' thoughts.

What the hell is this crazy woman Ji Yuntang saying?

Before coming, he'd already schemed to frame Luo Jingshen for harming Luo Junhe.

After all, Prince Ye was too brilliant. The Crown Prince, jealous and afraid of losing his heir spot, wanted him dead, wanting him to suffer a fate worse than death.

In Luo Feizhou's eyes, this reason was airtight.

He wanted to manipulate Ji Yuntang into dealing with Luo Jingshen for him.

In less than a month, he'd already witnessed Ji Yuntang's ability to cause trouble twice.

After causing a big scene at the Dali Temple twice, she got out unscathed, proving she was bold, clever, and sharp.

Even if she went toe-to-toe with Luo Jingshen, he probably wouldn't gain any advantage over her.

The fight itself was minor—Luo Feizhou's real goal was to make a huge public stink.

He figured a few clashes between Ji Yuntang and Luo Jingshen would not only piss him off but also ruin her ties with the Empress.

Then, when the Empress no longer protected her, Ji Yuntang would have no choice but to turn to Consort Chu and join their camp.

Luo Feizhou's plan was beautiful, but Ji Yuntang didn't fall for it.

He couldn't figure out where the problem lay.

Just then, Luo Feizhou felt dizzy, followed by a wave of heat surging through his body.

He suddenly remembered that he had ordered someone to drug Ji Yuntang, and to make things more interesting, he'd sniffed plenty of the aphrodisiac himself.

And now, the drug was clearly taking effect.

His face flushed red, and he looked up at Ji Yuntang, only to find her expression clear and unaffected, with no sign of being drugged.

Luo Feizhou was confused, feeling his brain starting to slow down. He didn't understand what was happening.

He had bought the aphrodisiac at a high price and had seen Qing Feng light it in the incense burner.

They had been in the room for so long. Now that he was affected, why was Ji Yuntang still perfectly fine?

Before Luo Feizhou could voice his doubts, Ji Yuntang walked over, smiling at him.

"Prince Qi, are you feeling uncomfortable now? Do you want to play some adult games with me?"

Luo Feizhou, now burning up, was caught off guard by Ji Yuntang's words. He turned to look at her in surprise, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

Adult games? Was it what he thought?

He didn't expect that his poison plot had failed, but Ji Yuntang was being so proactive.

Sure enough, this woman was just as he had imagined.

She never really loved Luo Junhe; their marriage was just a show for outsiders, and deep down, she was cheap and low.

Now, with just a little gesture from him, Ji Yuntang was eagerly throwing herself at him.

Luo Feizhou sneered inwardly. Since she was offering herself up, he wouldn't be polite.

His eyes darkened, a lewd smile appearing on his face. He reached out and undid his belt, preparing to take off his clothes.

"Alright, since Third Sister-in-law is so eager, I'll grant your wish today."

"You've been married to Third Brother for so long, you probably haven't experienced the pleasure of being a woman, have you? Today, I can satisfy you and let you experience the beauty of the union between man and woman."

Ji Yuntang felt like vomiting. This scumbag had been putting on an act in front of her for so long and had finally revealed his true nature.
