My Princess and Crown Prince Are Revived
Chapter 401 Finale Part Two

Chapter 401: Chapter 401 Finale Part Two

Upon hearing the sound, Chu Baihan looked up and seemed to only then notice Lu Chen’an was still there.

She feigned surprise and said, "So the State Preceptor is still here. I thought you all found the banquet boring and had left on your own."

With her words, the envoys from Dongli Country, except for Lu Chen’an who still managed to control his emotions, each showed anger on their faces.

"Could it be that the Princess looks down on us? Continuously neglecting us, even though we are here to discuss peace," one thin man slammed the table and exclaimed angrily.

The next moment, a chopstick was thrust directly into his table.

He was so frightened that his face turned pale.

If his reaction had not been quick enough, that chopstick would have pierced his hand.

He looked up and saw that Nan Li was holding another chopstick in his hand.

His expression was both angry and wary.

Unexpectedly, this frail Crown Prince of Nanduan Kingdom also had strong martial arts skills.

"Envoys of Dongli Country, do you need this Crown Prince to remind you that you are here to seek peace, not to negotiate it?" Nan Li said in a low voice.

A powerful aura made many people breathless.

Chu Baihan also spoke indifferently, "Indeed, considering you’ve just arrived in Tongzhou and are not accustomed to the local conditions, I have been somewhat kind to you. But it seems... you have forgotten your place."

"A bandit who has been defanged and thrown into an enemy’s den still trying to act high and mighty, could it be... seeking your own doom?"

The final remark was certainly very meaningful.

The faces of the people from Dongli Country all looked quite unpleasant.

Lu Chen’an took a deep breath and then pretended to be calm as he said, "The Princess and the Crown Prince remind us well. Perhaps after our Second Princess and Eighth Princess finish this dance, we can continue to discuss the matter of seeking peace?"

"With such enthusiasm from Lord Lu and the two princesses, how could I refuse? Bring the music!"

No sooner had she spoken than two graceful figures came in, moving lightly on their feet.

They were dressed in red dance outfits, exposing their navels and slender ankles, which were tied with small bells that tinkled as they walked.

A gust of wind came through the door, and many already smelled a sweet, rich fragrance.

This was a scent unknown in the Nanduan Kingdom, intense yet not too hard to bear.

The two had already removed their veils and bore the traditional features of the Dongli people, looking quite alluring.

Many men in the room seemed entranced, staring straight at the two figures.

But over where Chu Baihan and the others were, none of those men even lifted their eyelids.

Yan Lian, with his head down, was squeezing Jian Yun’s fingers when suddenly, a cup of wine appeared before him.

Looking up, there was Dongli Ling, the Second Princess, who had already approached him, chuckling as she said, "Prince Lian, I toast to you."

"Sorry, I do not care for drinking," Yan Lian replied, pulling at the corner of his mouth indifferently, then quickly drawing closer to Jian Yun.

Seeing Yan Lian not giving her face, Dongli Ling moved on to find others to drink with.

She held the wine jug in her mouth, continuously producing wine cups from her body and handing them over to the men.

Many men were so bewitched that they foolishly drank the offered wine.

"Such debauchery, amen," Yan Lian chanted incessantly.

Chu Baihan diverted her gaze and said to Nan Xing behind her, "Go get a cup of wine."

Nan Xing immediately understood her intention.

She swiftly got a cup from a Deputy General who hadn’t had the chance to drink yet.

After Chu Baihan sniffed it carefully,

there seemed to be nothing amiss.

No, the more normal it appeared, the more suspicious it was.

The people from Dongli Country made such a fuss and insisted on having these two princesses dance; their purpose was definitely not simple.

So, what exactly were they after?

"Does the eldest princess think that the two of us sisters have poisoned someone?"

Just at that moment, Dongli Ya giggled, holding a wine pot and cups, and walked over with shy steps.

Her entire body leaned on the table, her ample collarbone area bouncing up.

"The eighth princess has a good figure," Chu Baihan commented as she took the wine, speaking thoughtfully.

Dongli Ya’s expression stiffened, probably not expecting Chu Baihan, as a woman, to say such a thing.

Yan Lin’s head began to ache.

Now, he had to guard against both men and women.

"Eldest princess, Prince Yan, please," Dongli Ya said.

Dongli Ya poured two cups of wine and handed them to Chu Baihan and Yan Lin.

"Alright," Chu Baihan took the cups without hesitation and drank them all at once.

"The prince is not good with alcohol, so I, the princess, will take his place," Chu Baihan said calmly.

A flicker of annoyance crossed the depths of Dongli Ya’s eyes, but in the end, she smiled and said, "The princess can really hold her liquor."

After saying this, she walked away, swaying her hips.

"How is it? Hanhan, are you alright? You dare to take something from them?"

Yan Lin grasped Chu Baihan’s wrist, his expression filled with worry.

"Don’t worry, how would I know what they are up to if I didn’t drink? However, even though the wine entered my stomach, I didn’t detect anything amiss."

"Could it be that the wine really wasn’t problematic, but something else was?"

Chu Baihan frowned and murmured.

Suddenly, at that moment, Yan Lin’s breath changed sharply, his brow furrowing.

He suddenly felt the Poisonous Insect inside him becoming restless.

Since the last time Hanhan had suppressed the Poisonous Insect Poison for him, it had been a long while since it had flared up. What was happening today?

Seeing Chu Baihan’s earnest expression, Yan Lin suppressed his discomfort using his Inner Strength, not wanting to worry her.

Finally, those two sisters calmed down and sat down beside Lu Chen’an.

"As the eldest princess has seen, our two princesses are not only beauties but also good at singing and dancing. Our emperor plans to propose marriage to Nanduan Kingdom, and our princesses are our sincerity," Lu Chen’an said as he stroked his beard.

"A marriage alliance?" Chu Baihan murmured softly.

She looked up at the two women.

Noticing that their eyes were moist, seemingly very resistant,

She curved her lips into an intriguing smile.

"Very well, this princess thinks this proposal is excellent, promoting friendship between the two countries. Why not?" she said calmly.

Upon hearing this, tears instantly fell from the eyes of Dongli Ya and Dongli Ling, looking utterly devastated.

But when unseen by others, they exchanged a triumphant look.

As long as they could stay, the good days of West Chu were numbered.

But in the next moment, their expressions froze because they actually heard Chu Baihan say —

"Since the Dongli emperor is so sincere, I cannot disregard his kindness. So, are there any Deputy Generals present who are unmarried, or although married, wish to take a concubine? Would these two princesses meet your desires?"

She was actually planning to have them marry these lowly Deputy Generals?

Dongli Ling and Dongli Ya glared at Chu Baihan as if trying to bore holes through her.
