USWHC -Chapter 506 Alliance (Part 6)

Lanyi couldn’t help but take a step back, her whole body trembling slightly. “Listen to what you’re saying, Sister… Ah, right, my mother is still waiting for me in the palace. I won’t keep you company admiring the flowers here!”

Zhu Jie saw that Lanyi was about to be scared off and couldn’t help but reveal a smug smile. But just then, there came another “ugh” from beneath her, followed by a wave of nauseating alcohol stench.

Zhu Jie nearly fainted on the spot—why again?!

Lanyi had already taken a step to leave, but upon hearing the noise, she suddenly turned back with a mischievous grin and looked at Zhu Jie. “Sister, this stool even has a smell to it!”

“It’s not the stool—it’s me!” Zhu Jie said, tears welling in her eyes. Ji Yi, when you wake up, you’d better remember how much I’ve sacrificed for you today! “I had sweet fermented rice dumplings today!” she added, covering her mouth as if to hide it.

“That strong?” Lanyi clearly didn’t believe her. Step by step, she walked closer, ignoring the smell, her eyes fixed on beneath Zhu Jie. “Then Sister, don’t just sit there. You should get up and walk around—don’t let the food sit!”

“Yes, yes, I should walk…” Zhu Jie replied awkwardly, yet she still refused to move.

Lanyi had no interest in her excuses anymore. She leaned in directly—like playing a game of musical chairs. With a playful giggle, she said, “Sister, let me sit for a bit!”

She spoke as if joking, even acting coy, but her movements were anything but gentle. She plopped herself down forcefully. The moment she sat, she froze in surprise. “Sister, this stool is soft?”

“Hehe… that’s why I said it’s my new invention!” Zhu Jie said awkwardly, stubbornly refusing to budge.

Lanyi sneered inwardly, now even more determined to see the truth. She pressed down harder, unlike Zhu Jie’s cautious half-sitting—Lanyi sat fully and restlessly on top.

This completely ruined things. Ji Yi was a tall man—over six feet—now with two women sitting on his head. How could that feel good? And he was drunk, buried under a woman’s skirts—ugh, let him throw up first!

Sure enough, a rapid series of retching sounds followed, faster than a rooster crowing at dawn. Lanyi suddenly felt the wide “stool” beneath her shaking. She immediately screamed at the top of her lungs, “Ah! There’s something underneath!”

“Where? No—nothing!” Zhu Jie clung tightly, refusing to move away.

Lanyi, feigning terror, said, “Sister, could it be someone hiding underneath? Hurry, get up!”

Can I tell you the truth? Zhu Jie felt as if struck by lightning. Her legs began to tremble—sneaking into the inner palace in broad daylight… even ten heads wouldn’t be enough to save him from execution!

“Guards!” Lanyi shouted excitedly, unable to hide the thrill in her eyes—she clearly realized something.

But this time, things didn’t go as smoothly as before. Before she could finish shouting, there was a sudden bang—something beneath her abruptly arched upward. Losing her balance, she was sent headfirst into the flower bushes ahead.

Zhu Jie looked and thought—well, that’s that! Lanyi had plunged straight into the flowers, her whole head buried in a peony bush, looking like an octopus with branches sticking out all around and large blossoms trembling wildly. At that moment, Zhu Jie finally understood why Ji Yi had been acting like that earlier—he had been stuck in the flowers too!

“Princess! Princess!” A shrill cry rang out as Zhu Jie saw Liu Rong and the others rushing over. Now things were truly in chaos.

Zhu Jie also cried out, “Sister!” and threw herself forward. At first, muffled groans and frantic struggling could still be heard from within the flower bushes, but the moment Zhu Jie pounced, everything suddenly went still.

Then Zhu Jie called out even more anxiously to Liu Rong, “Oh no, your princess has fainted!”

Yes—after being firmly pressed down by Zhu Jie, Lanyi finally went completely still… and fainted.
