The Concubine Strikes Back: The Marquis Insists on Me to Be His Wife

Chapter 199: Was someone drugged?

Su Wanyu was no longer clear-headed at this time. When she saw Su Jinqi coming to pull her, she just felt his hands were so cool and wanted to stick to him.

Su Jinqi was already seventeen years old. He was born only three days earlier than Su Qing, and he had already been arranged to marry. They had all gone to the border with their father since they were young, and only discussed marriage when they came back, so all the children got married a little later. But he already had a concubine, so how could he not understand what was going on with Su Wanyu?

"Second sister, please wake up. Have you been drugged?"

Su Wanyu's face flushed and she looked seductive. Su Wanrong also hurried over and together with Su Jinqi, she pulled Su Wanyu away.

Madam Hou walked up to Su Qing and asked, "Su Qing, are you okay?"

Su Qing was helped up by the people around her. "I'm fine, old lady. I don't know what happened to my sister. She was fine just now."

Madam Hou pulled Su Qing and said, "Let's go back to the mansion!"

Su Qing looked at the old lady holding her hand tightly, and knew that the old lady was only calm on the surface, but was extremely angry inside.

"Okay, let's go now."

When they got on the carriage, Madam Hou put on a serious face and asked, "But you did it?"

"What did the old lady say?"

"But you gave Su Wanyu the drug?"

"The old lady doubts me?"

"You know medicine, don't you? Su Wanyu looked like she had been given some cheap medicine. How could you do this?"

Since Madam Hou knew everything, there was no need for me to hide anything.

"What the old lady said is correct. I just switched my wine with Su Wanyu's. The wine with the drug was given to me by Su Wanyu. I just smelled that there was something wrong with the wine, so I switched it with her. She was the one who wanted to harm people, not me."

"Is this true?"

"If the old lady doesn't believe me, I can swear on your Nian'er!"

"Alas~ Wanyu, this child has gone astray! Don't blame her for treating you like this, she is just afraid that you will threaten her position."

What? Are you sure you heard it right? Is it possible that I don't blame her for what she did to me? Absolutely not.

"Maybe the old lady feels sorry for my sister! But I am the victim. If I hadn't found out, I would be the one making a fool of myself today, and the Marquis' Mansion wouldn't tolerate me anymore, right? Today might be the day I die. I can't help but blame her, and I can't possibly forgive her."

Madam Hou is also a woman. How could she not know that even if they are sisters, it is difficult for them to share the same husband without competing for favor, not to mention that they are not born of the same mother!

The two returned to the Marquis' Mansion in silence.

The general's mansion did not dare to invite the imperial physician, but called a doctor to treat Su Wanyu and prescribed some medicine. Su Wanrong sent her maid to boil the medicine for Su Wanyu. After it was boiled, the maid struggled to feed her to drink it, and then let her soak in cold water in the bathtub for an hour before she sobered up a little.

Su Wanrong came in with her maid and helped Su Wanyu put on her clothes.

"Sister, Fifth Brother said that you were drugged, right? Do you know who drugged you? Tell me, I will never let her go. Could it be Su Qing? But she just sat there without moving?"

Su Wanyu knew that she had lost her composure. She was afraid that the Marquis' Mansion would not tolerate her like this today. Others didn't know and thought that she was drugged. In fact, she knew that she was the one who drugged herself and ended up hurting herself. She regretted it deeply...but she couldn't admit that she was the one who drugged herself.

"I don't know, little sister. Who would be so cruel to hurt me? I'm afraid that this incident will affect you, and I won't live any longer!"
