A Journey Against the World

A Journey Against the World
Chapter 134


The music chanted beautifully, making the listeners could not help but enjoy happiness. Amidst the huge banquet crowd, a group of women danced with gurgles, luring some mischievous eyes there.


Among the many souls enjoying happiness, one of them seemed to be quiet, not looking like he was enjoying the banquet. One chose to quietly watch the conversation of the Emperor with the other guests.


Recollecting back when he was in one room with the guests, there was a debate but fortunately he was able to neutralize it. In the end he asked the guests to be ordinary, thinking of himself as if he had never been to a meeting a while ago. Although his request was rejected considering that he could be said to be the most influential person in the meeting.


Long he fell silent without even touching a bit of food on the table, inviting one of his brothers to ask him.


"Sister, why don't you eat the food at the table?" The girl in quite a fancy dress with the lady's jewelry almost filling her head asked in a slightly astonished tone.


The girl's gaze was instantly fixed on the figure of the woman in front of her, who was none other than her older brother, Wang Xinian. The girl was silent for a moment like she was in confusion, but when she saw Wang Xinian staring at the food on his desk, the girl instantly regained her senses.


"I'll eat it, but later," the girl replied calmly.


Wang Xinian's eyebrows rose next door, slightly puzzled at his sister's reply, "Why? Don't you like the food?" Thinking that his younger brother did not like the food served, it would definitely make Emperor Feng Kim feel unappreciated.


The girl smiled faintly as she shook her head, "It's not that, it's just that I'm still full. Is not forcing the stomach the same as making the body sick," he replied still in a calm tone.


Wang Xinian felt a little displeased at his sister's reply. Either way he wants his sister to touch one of the diners at the table. Thinking of setting up one of the diners at the table, Wang Xinian's gaze was fixed on the glass of wine. Along with that a sly smile was painted on his face.


"In that case, I won't force Brother." Wang Xinian put aside the hairdresser who covered his gaze behind his ears, while putting on a plain look, "But, to appreciate the guests. At least Sister must drink wine to show courtesy to the big guests of Dad. Isn't that right, sister?" Wang Xinian touched his lips, his look was plain and his demeanor looked extremely full of innocence that was not contrived.


The girl in front of Wang Xinian smiled, "If it really had to be like that, I would." The girl had no intention of resisting, realizing that she refused just as much as she did not appreciate her royal guests. In order to avoid unwanted whispers, the girl must indeed drink the wine. The girl grabbed the wine glass, making Shan Qiayu's eyes round in delight, but at once the excitement stopped when she saw her sister split the water in the wine in half. Then giving one glass to Wang Xinian, made his older brother slightly surprised, "But I can't spend it on my own, I'm very weak on wine. I'm sure Big Brother would want to help me spend it on Dad's guests" he said in a very gentle tone full of innocence.


Wang Xinian's expression turned bad, his eyes were not separated from the glass in his sister's hand. Where the glass was supposed to be used his sister drank, not himself. But whether intentionally or not, his sister gave the poisoned glass to Wang Xinian, while his sister got a glass that had no poison.


Shan Qiayu turned to look at his sister while giving an awkward smile, "Ah ... Little sister. I can't help you."


"Why?" The girl directly asked, making Wang Xinian become a little nervous.


Shan Qiayu's gaze glanced at the other while thinking what a good reason to refuse his sister's request, "I, I, I, I have drunk quite a lot of wine. If I drink it again, I'm afraid I won't be strong enough to drink it," Wang Xinian replied in a slightly nervous tone.


His sister tilted her head slightly, looking like a flurry, "If I don't get it wrong, Big Brother just sipped a glass of wine once Brother. Can that say a lot?" It was very clear it was not if Wang Xinian lied to his sister. The girl had been watching Wang Xinian for quite a while and saw Wang Xinian only sip once a glass of wine then waste a little time telling stories with some of the people around him.


"Ah, that, I-"


Uncompleted Wang Xinian reasoned, the girl directly gave the glass in her hand to Wang Xinian's hand, making her brother was shocked to death. Not only did she get there, the girl also immediately shouted out loud enough to make all eyes on her, "All of you ladies, dear guests, sorry to interrupt your time for a while." The girl gave off a sweet smile, making the few men who looked at her become a little charmed.


"Shua Xie what do you want to do?" w.a.n.g Xinian asked while acting increasingly stiff. Wang Xinian felt a bad feeling seeing Shua Xie yell calling all the guests to look at him.


The girl who was none other than Shua Xie was still smiling, for a moment her gaze returned to Shan Qiayu again, "The Prime Princess wants to help me drink this wine for you guys. Cross for the honored guests." Shua Xie raised the glass in his hand then quickly drank the wine in the glass.


"Yes, cross for cooperation." General Feng Xian supported Shua Xie's respect for the guests.


Seeing the Great General Feng raising a glass and drinking wine, the other guests also did the same. The storm of cheers for success reverberated loudly, accompanied by a laugh.


After Shua Xie drank his wine, he turned to look at Wang Xinian, he could see that the girl still had not drunk her wine. Making Shua Xie laugh cynically in the heart. But, of course Shua Xie would not let his sister not drink the wine.


"Sister, why haven't you drunk it. As the future Grand Princess, doesn't Big Brother want to salute the big guests?" shua Xie asked still with the innocent drama he made. One finger of Shua Xie touched her lips, "Could it be that Big Brother doesn't want to?" Shua Xie's last statement invited many glances to Wang Xinian, even Emperor Feng Kim also looked at him quite sharply. Waiting for her daughter to drink the wine so as not to humiliate the Xuilin kingdom in front of her four guests.


Wang Xinian became misbehaved, the situation had already cornered him, never did Wang Xinian expect the trap he had set for Shua Xie to now turn to attack him, "I, I ... can I change the wine?" w.a.n.g Xinian asked in a soft voice while looking at Shua Xie nanar, looking like he was pleading there.


Hoping that Shua Xie would agree to her request, but in fact Shua Xie refused in a subtle way, "Why Brother? Didn't you like that wine. Isn't it the same as the wine that guests drink?"


"That's ...." Wang Xinian became increasingly nervous, not feeling the sweat pouring out quite profusely on his face and neck. His attitude was increasingly inviting Shua Xie to corner him


"Didn't that brother ask me to drink wine for a big guest? Why does it seem like you don't want to drink it now? Does Brother want to embarrass Dad?" said Shua Xie, the tone of innocence he made increasingly looks real.


On the other hand, Emperor Feng Kim looked at Wang Xinian more and more sharply as he said, "As the future Grand Princess, don't you want to give your own face?" quite clearly Feng Kim forced Wang Xinian to drink the wine.


Sweat was getting more and more flowing, and even now it was wetting his palms. Wang Xinian looked at Emperor Feng Kim furiously, "Your Majesty, I ...." Wang Xinian looked again at the surroundings, the gaze of many people towards him was like he was insulting him, Wang Xinian did not want to see such a gaze. His gaze turned again to the glass he was holding, 'This glass is poisonous, if I drink it I will die. But if I don't drink it, Dad will definitely scold me and revoke my title ... The Shua Xie. Basic Jal*ng! Just wait for my vengeance.' There was no other choice Wang Xinian forced to gulp down the wine in the glass with a face of difficulty. After he finished gulping down, he raised the tall glass and said, "For a big guest."


The cheers of applause went back, cheering Wang Xinian as if giving pride to the girl. Things went back to normal, busy with their own jokes.


Along with the calm return, Wang Xinian moved away from the crowd while holding his head that began to feel dizzy, just at that time one of the girls came to approach him, the girl was Mielan, Wang Xinian's close friend. Mielan grabbed Wang Xinian's body which slowly squeezed.


"Wang Xinian, you've done well, I didn't think you'd be this close for your title" Mielan said in a soft voice.


As Wang Xinian's gaze fell on Mielan, there was clearly a look of confusion there, "What do you mean, Mielan? Quickly give me the antidote, you proposed the poison and you should have the antidote, right?" w.a.n.g Xinian asked in a weak voice.


While Mielan was silent, making Wang Xinian even more confused, he should have given him the antidote, but his best friend was silent. Before long Mielan fell silent, she carved a smile, a cunning smile there, "Wang Xinian, sorry I had to use you to avenge my father. Shua Xie has imprisoned my father, and I need someone to avenge him." What was definitely someone Mielan needed was definitely Wang Xinian. Since Wang Xinian's hatred for Shua Xie was so great, Mielan used that hatred into her chance of revenge.


Wang Xinian's eyes were round, he looked at Mielan with a look of disbelief, his best friend had taken advantage of him from the start, "Mielan! You, I'm not gonna let you, uhuk." A mouthful of fresh blood came out from Wang Xinian's mouth making his remark cut off. Wang Xinian looked at the blood on his hands, his eyes were round big as well as his body was increasingly trembling looking at that much blood, Wang Xinian started to get scared, "Uhuk! Uhuk!"


"Sorry, Wang Xinian. You have to sacrifice your life in order to retaliate with me," whispered Mielan slowly making Wang Xinian's eyes more rounded.


"Mielan, you, uhuk! Uhuk! Uhuk!"


Wang Xinian's coughing voice invited many of his gaze towards him, and when he saw the figure of the future Grand Princess coughing up blood, some people shouted in surprise.


"Major Princess, poisoning!" cry Mielan hard. He was the first to voice his shock with an extremely frightened expression.
