Silver needles shot out.

Xiao Yue couldn't believe that Song Qingning would actually dare to press the mechanism.

She was Princess Nanlin, and she came to Dajing as an envoy. How could Song Qingning dare to harm an envoy?

Song Qingning's actions just now were merely meant to scare her.

So she was completely unprepared until she saw Song Qingning press the mechanism.

Xiao Yue's mind went blank for a moment. She was very close to Song Qingning. When she came to her senses, she didn't even have a chance to dodge. The silver needle pierced her right arm without missing a beat.

"Hmm," Xiao Yue groaned softly.

The silver needle was coated with poison.

To prevent the poison on the silver needles from being immediately detected, she added datura juice to the needles, so that after a brief pain, no one would feel anything.

However, the poison will spread throughout the body and will take effect after an hour.

And that poison...

Thinking about the effects of the poison, Xiao Yue's face turned slightly pale.

Fortunately, it won't take effect immediately!

Xiao Yue glared angrily at Song Qingning, "How dare you hurt this princess!"

"Injury?" Song Qingning looked up at Xiao Yue.

He glanced at it once, then lowered his eyes again to continue "studying" the hidden weapon, his finger about to press the mechanism.

Xiao Yue's expression changed drastically, "Song..."

She only had time to utter one word before another silver needle shot out and pierced her other arm.

Just like before, it was only a momentary pain, and then there were no other sensations.

"Song Qingning!" Xiao Yue gritted her teeth.

Song Qingning ignored her and said nothing more. She pressed the mechanism twice more, and two more silver needles were inserted into Xiao Yue's legs.

If you keep pressing, not a single silver needle will be left in the hidden weapon.

Song Qingning frowned, still unsatisfied.

Xiao Yue's face was already as black as could be. Looking at Song Qingning, her eyes burned with hatred, as if she wanted to tear her apart. "Song Qingning, how dare you hurt me?!"

"I hurt you? Princess Xiao Yue, you've wronged me. Is the princess injured?" Song Qingning said.

She had seen the silver needle.

The silver needles were so fine that they penetrated deep into the flesh, and the needle holes were not even noticeable.

There is no evidence; these are all fabricated accusations.

As for poison.

Song Qingning glanced back at Liu Shi, who was not far away and dared not approach.

A silver needle was just inserted into Liu's body, and quite some time has passed, but Liu has not shown any signs of poisoning.

She guessed that the poison on the silver needles wouldn't take effect immediately.

Xiao Yue did not intend to kill her, nor did she need her life.

She just wanted to let Xiao Yue know that she, Song Qingning, was not someone to be trifled with, and that the capital of Dajing was not a place where Xiao Yue could act recklessly.

Song Qingning returned her words to him, "I was just joking with the princess. Does the princess of Nanlin not even appreciate a joke?"

"You..." Xiao Yue's voice trembled with anger.

The next moment, Song Qingning suddenly took a step closer to her.

Caught off guard, Xiao Yue instinctively stepped back and nearly fell, but Song Qingning "kindly" grabbed her wrist.

Xiao Yue steadied herself and then caught a glimpse of a smile on Song Qingning's face.

That smile was not friendly.

Then Song Qingning leaned close to her ear and said, "Princess Nanlin came to Dajing with the intention of a marriage alliance, which is a gesture of goodwill. But to bring goodwill along with hidden weapons, could Princess Xiaoyue's 'goodwill' be a lie?"

Song Qingning glanced at the ring in her hand again.

"You can deny shooting me with a hidden weapon just now, saying it was a joke, but this ring is clearly from Nanlin. The princess can't very well say it's mine, can she?"

Xiao Yue: "..."

She dared to threaten her!

No one ever dared to threaten her!

Xiao Yue's anger grew even stronger, and she was about to lash out when she saw Song Qingning's smile widen.

The voice slowly drifted over:

"How long will it take for the princess's poison to take effect?"

"..."

Xiao Yue's anger faltered, and she could not hide her shock.

Song Qingning, she actually knew the silver needles were poisonous?!

And that poison...

She was poisoned; the amount of medicine on one silver needle would take effect in an hour, but just now Song Qingning shot four silver needles at her, all of which penetrated her body.

The onset time may be faster.

"Here you go, Princess. Please keep this safe. If you enjoy playing with this, I'll keep you company next time!" Song Qingning handed the ring to Xiao Yue with a sly smile.

Xiao Yue gritted her teeth, glared fiercely at Song Qingning, and then turned and ran away.

Only after the figure disappeared did Song Qingning turn her gaze to the artificial hill beside her, her eyes sharp as knives.

Song Qingyan flinched and quickly pulled her exposed half of her head back inside.

She thought Princess Nanlin would make Song Qingning suffer.

Unexpectedly, it was Princess Nanlin herself who suffered the consequences.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly and hid behind the artificial hill when Song Qingning rushed over, otherwise she would have been implicated as well.

Unable to see Song Qingning suffer, Song Qingyan felt resentful. When she peeked out again, Song Qingning was nowhere to be seen.

Not long after Song Qingning left, Madam Liu caught up with her.

"Song Qingning, come with me!" Madam Liu grabbed Song Qingning's wrist and, without saying a word, pulled her away.

But her strength was no match for Song Qingning.

Song Qingning simply stopped walking; Liu Shi couldn't pull her away.

When Liu turned around and saw the smile on Song Qingning's face, she felt a chill run down her spine.

"What are you laughing at?" Liu asked, displeased.

The way Song Qingning looked at her was as if she were about to face a terrible disaster.

Song Qingning glanced at Liu's arm, wondering what kind of poison Xiao Yue had used on the silver needles.

She observed Liu.

His complexion and mental state are normal, and there are no signs of poisoning at first glance.

When will the poison take effect?

Liu felt even more uneasy as she was being scrutinized by her.

But remembering her purpose in coming to find Song Qingning, she immediately put everything aside and grabbed Song Qingning's wrist again, "Come with me!"

This time, Song Qingning shook her off.

Liu stumbled, looked up, and only saw Song Qingning's departing figure.

Liu was so angry that her face turned ashen. She wanted to chase after Song Qingning again, but then she heard a few more bells ring.

The welcome banquet is about to begin.

Liu had met Madam Yang, who was the mother of one of the纨绔子弟 (playboys) she had previously chosen for Song Qingning.

The matchmaker had previously conveyed a message that Madam Yang had no immediate plans to arrange a marriage for her son.

When the two met earlier, Madam Liu thought that if she brought it up again, perhaps Madam Yang would change her mind.

The young master of the Yang family was lecherous and addicted to gambling. In his early years, he had taken in several concubines and had a son before he was even married.

Anyone who jumps into this pit of fire will be burned half to death.

She was determined to push Song Qingning in no matter what.

When she mentioned it to Madam Yang, Madam Yang surprisingly suggested meeting Song Qingning.

This clearly indicates a change of mind.

So Lady Liu took Song Qingning to see Madam Yang.

The welcoming banquet is about to begin, and we can have Madam Yang choose a match at the banquet later, which is the same thing.

Liu gave a cold laugh.

Perhaps it was the force of being thrown away by Song Qingning that strained his muscles and bones, causing a slight discomfort in his arm.

Liu frowned, but didn't pay much attention.

Seeing that the noblewomen and ladies of high rank were heading to the welcoming banquet one after another, Lady Liu followed them.
