Chapter 548: He Was A Madman
A faint light flashed through Fiennes’ blue eyes. His gaze fell on the tray without leaving a trace. His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.
Of the three glasses of wine, one of them had some “seasoning” added to it…
Sometimes, Fiennes was amazed at his sister’s boldness.
How many people in all the major galaxies dared to scheme against the God’s Palace’s emperor like this?
Fiennes restrained his expression and waved at Diya with a smile.
“I was talking about you with His Highness. Diya, your dance was so beautiful. You must have spent a lot of effort, right?”
Hearing Fiennes’ words, Diya’s beautiful amber eyes lit up. She naturally misunderstood what he meant.
His Highness really liked her graceful dance, right?
She had spent such a long time just so that one day she could surprise her highness with a single glance!
Today, she had finally succeeded!
The corners of Diya’s lips curled up sweetly. She passed the tray with three glasses of red wine to the waitress. She picked up one of the glasses and walked slowly towards Fiennes and the emperor.
“Your Highness, brother, Diya cheers to the two of you. Today is my birthday. The two of you are not allowed to reject it!”
The target of this sentence was obviously not Fiennes.
Before she could finish her sentence, Fiennes took the initiative to pick up the glass of red wine on his right and took a sip.
“Good wine!”
Diya glanced at Fiennes with a half-true and half-false look. Her face was full of resentment.
“Brother, why did you drink first?”
Fiennes smiled and did not say anything. Meanwhile, Diya turned her head. Her amber eyes were wide open as she looked at the man in front of her with a pitiful expression.
“Your Highness? Are you not going to give me face again?”
Diya deliberately emphasized the word “again.” Obviously, she was referring to the fact that the emperor did not cut the cake for her earlier.
As soon as she said this, Diya did not believe that he would decline!
The emperor indifferently glanced at the girl in front of him. His expression was cold and clear. He did not say anything.
The hand under Diya’s sleeve silently tightened. She bit the corner of her lips with a pitiful expression.
She stretched out her slender fingers and pointed at the glass of red wine that was still on the tray. The meaning of her pleading was self-evident.
“Your Highness, can’t you…”
Just as Diya was feeling apprehensive, she suddenly saw a slender hand crossing in front of her and taking away the glass of red wine on the tray!
Diya’s pupils contracted slightly. She clenched her teeth tightly and tried her best to suppress the ecstasy in her heart!
Was the plan that she had been planning for a long time finally about to take the first step?!
Whether it was to say that she was extremely audacious or that she did not want to live anymore, she was willing to give it a try!
The glass of wine was mixed with powerful hallucinogenic drugs, and there were also some stimulants.
That’s right. As a girl, it was indeed shocking for her to do such a thing. However, if she didn’t do so, she really didn’t know how to improve her relationship with the emperor.
Diya had already calculated that these few days would be the time for her to become pregnant. If she could become pregnant with the emperor’s son…
No matter how angry his highness was, the people of the God’s Palace would definitely protect her. After all, this was a matter related to the inheritance of the bloodline!
If she wasn’t that lucky, she wouldn’t care. When the time came, she would leave a few photos so that they could be used as a bargaining chip.
So what if she destroyed her reputation?
The emperor would also be dragged down by her!
She didn’t believe that the emperor would disregard the dignity of himself and the God’s Palace, and disregard the power of the Siswell family!
When she first brought up this plan, her brother and father didn’t agree. However, they were slowly convinced by her.
Diya knew that her brother was trying to accommodate her and make her happy. On the other hand, her father had other plans!
Over the years, although the Siswell family had gradually become the leader of the four great families, the God’s Palace was still above them!
This was akin to a ticking time bomb that was heavily planted in her father’s heart!
Regardless of whether they submitted or rebelled, they were all trembling in fear, as though they were treading on thin ice.
If the Siswell family was able to form a marriage alliance with the God’s Palace, then their situation would be much better!
If emperor became the son-in-law of their family, then the God’s Palace would no longer be a true superior in the sense of the word, much less a sword dangling above their heads. Instead, they would become good friends who would help and benefit each other overnight!
Diya was clear about her father’s ambitions. As long as she married the emperor, she would not only be able to avoid the situation of bloodshed, but she would also be able to reap the happiness of the rest of her life. Why not?
Come to think of it, she still felt that she was great!
…
Seeing that cold man pick up the red wine, Diya looked at Fiennes without a trace and gave him a look.
Fiennes immediately understood and smiled at the emperor.
“Your Highness, today is Diya’s birthday. How about we drink all the wine in the glass as a sign of sincerity to celebrate her birthday?”
Hearing Fiennes’ words, the emperor glanced at him indifferently.
Facing that deep and cold gaze, Fiennes almost suspected that he had been completely seen through!
Cold sweat oozed out from Fiennes’ back. The corners of his lips curved slightly as he raised his eyebrows at Fiennes, trying his best to maintain the calm on the surface.
Just as Fiennes was hesitating, he suddenly heard a voice that was as calm as the spring breeze.
“Very well.”
When Fiennes heard this, his hand that was holding the wine glass tightened slightly. If it was not for his excellent psychological quality, he would have spilled the wine that was as bright as rouge out of the wine glass.
“Then let’s compete to see who can drink faster!”
Fiennes laughed out loud. In order not to arouse the emperor’s suspicion, he immediately put the wine glass into his mouth and poured it down in one go.
He drank quickly and anxiously, as if he really wanted to compete for this ranking.
Diya’s heart instantly hung in her throat. She gulped, afraid that the emperor would not take the bait.
Fortunately, the emperor finally raised his hand and put the exquisite glass to his lips, drinking it in one gulp.
In an instant, Diya looked straight at the wine disappearing. Her heart slowly fell back, and intense ecstasy surged through her limbs and bones.
That kind of excitement was indescribable!
The wine that the emperor had just drunk had been laced with something heavy!
The contents of this glass would cause an ordinary person to lose consciousness after drinking a few drops!
Although the emperor had a unique constitution, she did not believe that the emperor would not react after drinking a full glass of wine!
…
Su Wan returned to the second floor with the staff and returned the Guqin.
Su Wan thought for a moment and decided to sneak into the hall downstairs to see if she could talk to Jiang Xuecheng.
However, just as she entered the hall, she saw a familiar figure.
The figure was dressed in the uniform of a waiter and held a cutlery in his hand. He was tall and looked like Jiang Xuecheng from afar.
Was it Ming Ye…
Didn’t this man have a grudge with the God’s Palace?! Why was he here?!
He dared to come to such an occasion. He was a madman!
Su Wan looked at him in bewilderment. In the end, she quickly chased after him.
