On Our Wedding Night, I Discovered the Crown Prince's Hidden Illness

Chapter 99: Chapter 99 Overthrowing the Nation and the City

Lai Manting, adorned in the Flower Goddess Dress, twirled in front of the copper mirror and, feeling quite satisfied, smiled at the eunuchs, “Let’s go now.”

The lead eunuch nodded, “All the Consorts and Princesses are already there, just waiting for the Flower God and Flower Fairy to take the stage so the Flower Festival can officially begin.”

Xu Yaxiang covered her mouth and asked, “What about the Princes?”

The eunuch looked at her meaningfully and then said, “They are all here.”

“Then let’s hurry and set off!” Xu Yaxiang, suppressing a smile, turned to her team and said.

By the time they reached the stage, the Ninth Princess furrowed her brows and asked loudly, “Why are you going on stage?”

...

Cao Shu immediately approached the Ninth Princess’s seat and bent down to explain.

The more the Ninth Princess listened, the more impatient she became, “Nonsense!”

Cao Shu said, “It’s true that the designated Crown Prince Consort felt itchy wearing the Flower Goddess Dress and couldn’t bear it, so they had to replace her. Please forgive us, Ninth Princess!”

The Ninth Princess waved her hand dismissively, “Forget it, forget it. Don’t miss the auspicious time.”

Cao Shu quickly signaled to Lai Manting and Xu Yaxiang.

The six people on the stage nodded and began to pose.

Just as Lai Manting raised her hand to pose, her skin began to itch unbearably and she felt an intense heat inside.

She was shocked. The dress was clearly altered, not the one meant for the ‘little girl,’ so why was it reacting on her body?

She wanted to endure it, but really couldn’t, and stopped moving.

The five people beside her immediately came over to ask, “Man Ting, what’s wrong?”

Unexpectedly, as the five moved, the bottom half of their skirts came off automatically, revealing everything in an instant.

The screams from the women in the audience sounded all at once.

“Shameless!”

“How embarrassing!”

Suddenly, the scene descended into chaos.

Consort Xian had not expected that her first time overseeing the Flower Festival would encounter such a huge problem, so she sharply ordered, “Someone get a blanket to wrap her up quickly!”

Just then, Leng Yu Yan appeared with Lai Jiajia, Mi Xinmei, and others in tow.

You Yuxia and Wan Zhenzhen seemed transformed, strikingly more gorgeous, but what was even more stunning was Mi Xinmei’s clear face which showed no signs of her previous acne.

And then there was Luo Meng’er…

When had she become so slender and delicate?

Her waistline was noticeably slimmer by two full sizes!

But the most shocking was undoubtedly Leng Yu Yan.

Today, she wore no veil, instead having a golden tassel curtain hanging over half of her face, fully revealing her features to everyone present.

Although people knew she had blemishes on her face, few had seen her full features.

Today, they actually saw her face!

One had to admit, her features were incredibly beautiful!

Her eyes were like painted pictures, her skin as smooth as jade.

Her brilliant, starry eyes shone with radiant light with each turn, and beneath her small, upright nose were lips as tender as cherry blossoms.

It must be acknowledged, the combination of her features was exquisitely divine, belonging only to a fairy.

If not for the blemishes on her face, this woman would be the number one beauty in the world!

Looking at her figure, her curves were captivating, her waist hardly more than a handful.

Truly as if boneless when grasped, her dress fluttering like dancing butterflies when the wind blew.

Looking at the garments she wore, the skirt was of the finest embroidery, trailing on the ground for three feet, shimmering with every step she took. @@novelbin@@

It seemed as though moonlight flowed with movement, much like entrancing, shimmering wavelets.

From the unblemished side of her face, she seemed like a fairy who had mistakenly descended to the mortal realm, with a grace and beauty that captivated all, leading the men present to suddenly lose their souls.

The ladies present were shocked by her perfect facial features and even more envious of the luxurious garment she wore.

This astonishing garment featured the Moon Embroidery, renowned as the finest in the land.

The noblewomen present had heard of it but had never seen it.

This embroidery could make the clothes shine like moonlight, radiantly beautiful even in the darkest night.

At this moment, upon seeing it, the noblewomen were amazed.

The princesses of the harem, however, were quite familiar with this embroidery.

They had seen it several times among the tributes and had fiercely competed for a piece of the Moon Embroidery handkerchief but had never acquired one.

And here Leng Yu Yan was, wearing an entire set of such garments.

Such precious Moon Embroidery, and she had actually made it into a garment she wore on her body!

At this moment, Leng Yu Yan’s appearance dazzled everyone present, and for a time, many forgot about the five people on stage whose clothes did not cover their bodies and the unbearably itchy Lai Manting.

Lai Manting, enduring the unbearable itch and heat, glared furiously at Leng Yu Yan.

This girl hadn’t worn the Flower Goddess Dress and had said she couldn’t go on stage, so what was she doing out now?

Suddenly, Lai Manting realized she had been trapped by the schemes of this little girl.

Could it be that she found out the dress had been drugged?

Impossible, impossible, how could she possibly have known it was drugged?

But how else to explain this unbearable itching and heat on her own body?

Just as Lai Manting was about to go mad with rage, with a point of her toe, Leng Yu Yan leapt onto the stage.

“Third sister, make sure you watch our dance carefully on stage!”

Lai Manting clenched her fingers tightly in her palm to keep alert: “What do you mean?”

“Don’t you want to play the Flower God the most? The stage is yours, so you can clearly see the difference between us and you!”

With that, Leng Yu Yan twirled and soared, pulling down the five colorful silk ribbons tied on the stage and distributing them to the five flower fairies in her team.

Lai Jiajia, Luo Meng’er, and three others each grabbed a ribbon and spun up with the force of the ribbons.

Their hands scattered petals in various dance poses, just as if heavenly maidens were scattering flowers.

The stark contrast between the six disheveled people on stage and the six in the air playing the Flower God and flower fairies!

In an instant, thunderous applause erupted from below.

Lai Manting was so shocked her eyeballs nearly popped out, the ones flying and dancing were fairies, and they on stage were like mud.

Moreover, their current disgrace had reached rock bottom.

Xu Yaxiang, Li Lu, and the other three were bare-legged, huddling together shivering.

The palace maids, captivated by Leng Yu Yan and her companions, forgot to hand blankets to Xu Yaxiang and the others.

Once Leng Yu Yan and her companions finished the dance and landed smoothly, Lai Manting could no longer hold back and shouted, “It was Leng Yu Yan who drugged my dress!”

At this, Xu Yaxiang also loudly said, “Yes, our dresses’ waistlines were definitely sabotaged by them!”

Leng Yu Yan smiled subtly: “If I had taken action, your body would be ruined. Do you believe it, sister? Are you not familiar with the drug on your body now?”

Lai Manting looked at her in disbelief.

At this moment, Consort Xian came to her senses and demanded, “What exactly is going on? Why are there two groups of performers?”

Only then did the palace maids come to the stage to wrap Xu Yaxiang and the others in blankets.

Leng Yu Yan bowed: “Consort Xian, I have something to say!”

Consort Xian’s eyes flashed with malice, which then dissipated: “Speak!”

Leng Yu Yan clapped her hands, and Ji Qingyu helped bring up a brocade box.

With a flick of her toe, she opened the box: “Here lies the original Flower Goddess Dress that was intended for me. Unfortunately, someone tampered with it. Please, Imperial Physician, inspect it to know!”

The crowd below exclaimed.

Lai Manting, seeing that she could not hide the truth, immediately fled the stage.

As she moved, the effects of the drug grew stronger; she closed her eyes and happened to lean on Prince Liang before fainting with a sense of relief.
