Liu Fangfei was a very capable person, and she never thought that she would be targeted. She had always been confident in her own methods, so she asked Xiangyun to buy the poisonous snake that day.
Her hatred for Mrs. Gao was no less than her hatred for Jiang Yushu. Ever since she learned that the prince often went to the side courtyard to look for Mr. Gao, Concubine Liu knew that Mr. Gao would come out sooner or later.
She would not give Gao this chance.
Xiangyun did a good job this time, but a few hours later, Viper quickly returned from the purchase. That night, he found out clearly that the Gao family lived in Meixiangju, the prince went to Yalanju for meals, and tonight he stayed in Concubine Lin's house. inside.
That night, venomous snakes were released. Although there were not many in number, they were all extremely poisonous and aggressive snakes. The purpose was naturally to ensure Gao's death tonight.
But she didn't expect that Jinxin's people would see her people passing through the backyard when they went out to buy these things. They even followed them to the market and found out which boss sold them to her.
Jin Xin was sewing small clothes for the child at this time, and she was not sleepy. Seeing that it was getting late, Aunt Xiu urged, "Concubine, you'd better go to bed early. It's good for the child."
"There is only one more pattern left to embroider." Jin Xin said without raising her head.
There was still a good show to watch, couldn't she keep her spirits up and watch it?
Aunt Xiu responded and did not continue to urge.
After several months of getting along, Aunt Xiu still likes this concubine. She understands etiquette, knows how to advance and retreat, is sensible, fights for what should be done, and lets go of what should be done. She will not make trouble unreasonably, and she also knows how to win a man's heart. The servants are also tolerant. See how she does things flawlessly. She is not sour or jealous, nor does she fight for anything. She is also emotionally stable.
In the opinion of Aunt Xiu, such a person is more suitable to be the main wife and can treat all the concubines equally.
But she was the queen's person, so she realized this and quickly suppressed the idea. Don't tell her true thoughts in front of the queen to avoid being slapped.
When he finished embroidering the last pattern, Jin Xin calculated the time and found that it was almost the same. Not long after, there was a sudden commotion outside. Lian Rong immediately went to the door and came back to tell Jin Xin, "It's the prince and Concubine Lin, something seems to have happened." ”
Jin Xin pretended to be surprised, "What happened?"
"It seems to be the West Courtyard. The guards around the prince said that there are venomous snakes in the West Courtyard and they bit several people. The Gao family, Concubine Chen and Concubine Yang were all bitten."
Jin Xin groaned and covered her mouth, as if she was scared. If there weren't outsiders in the room, Jin Xin would not have to act with Lian Rong. She wanted to beat gongs and drums in her heart to celebrate Concubine Liu's wonderful move.
It was no small matter to bite three people at once. This poisonous snake came by such a coincidence, and Concubine Liu was too anxious.
Jin Xin almost couldn't hold her mouth shut, so she covered her mouth with a handkerchief. She wanted to watch the excitement, but Aunt Xiu caught her.
"Concubine, you're pregnant. It's best not to go to such a dangerous place and go back to rest quickly."
Jin Xin was very sorry. Although she wanted to go, she could only suppress the urge and reluctantly returned to the house.
"Lianrong, go and see what's going on. Don't let Concubine Lin get hurt." Jin Xin deliberately said to Lianrong, and the last sentence was for Aunt Xiu.
Lianrong got the words and ran so fast that even Aunt Xiu couldn't stop her.
At this time, King Rui rushed to the North Courtyard without even being fully dressed. He saw women outside the yard crying, and several people who had been bitten had been sent to the back room for treatment.
When Concubine Liu saw the prince coming, she stepped forward with an anxious expression and looked at Prince Rui nervously, "Your Majesty, why are there suddenly venomous snakes in this mansion? Could it be that the venomous snakes thrown by the former princess were not caught?"
Prince Rui frowned as he listened, but said nothing. He passed Concubine Liu and rushed into the house.
Concubine Lin came a little late to put on her clothes. Seeing Concubine Liu's pretentious look, she snorted, slowly stepped forward and looked at Concubine Liu, "Concubine Liu, it's so late, and you don't even have it." Go to bed, fully dressed, as if you expected something to happen tonight.”
Concubine Liu frowned when she heard this, and her face turned pale for a moment, but her psychological quality was not so easily frightened.
"Concubine Lin's words are a bit framed. I am just used to going to bed late, but to be framed like this is a bit hurtful."
Concubine Lin snorted sarcastically, "I have seen conspiracies since I was a child, and I also know which of the women in this mansion have this ability and which don't. Prince Rui's mansion is not a nest of snakes, rats, and worms, so why did we just catch poison this morning?" , there are venomous snakes at night, don’t you think it’s against common sense?”
After Concubine Liu heard this, she felt a chill go down her spine. It was too unusual, but it had to be done. Even if she was suspicious, wasn't there no evidence?
"So what? What does it have to do with me? You are in charge of the middle feed now. Who has the ability to get these things one after another to harm people? Do I have the ability?"
These words made Concubine Lin speechless and became anxious. She wanted to argue, but Concubine Liu pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth again, looking at Concubine Lin, "Or do you doubt Concubine Jiang? She is eating now The food and drinks are all provided by special personnel, and the steward in our house is not even qualified to inspect them. Do you think this is her fault?"
Concubine Lin gritted her teeth and glared at Concubine Liu with anger, unable to speak for a long time.
Jin Xin's things were specially purchased by people from the Duke's Mansion and the Palace, and she also specifically told the stewards not to open them midway, otherwise they would be blamed for any trouble.
Who in the whole house doesn't know that Concubine Jiang's belly is the most valuable, so who dares to take responsibility.
Concubine Liu pulled her and Jin Xin down at once. Concubine Lin snorted, "As long as someone does it, there will always be traces to follow."
After saying that, she walked into the house.
All three women were bitten, but the other two were okay. Chen Shiconcubine was bitten on the arm, and Yang Shiconcubine was bitten on the ankle. But the poison was so strong that the wounds were all black, and the black energy was still there. diffuse.
Gao was even more serious. He was bitten three times, one on his neck, two on his hands, the back of his left hand, and the mouth of his right hand. He fell into a coma, the wounds were severely swollen, his lips were black, and the circles under his eyes were also black. , the toxicity has entered the lungs.
When King Rui saw this scene, he was stunned in place. Even though the doctor was bleeding and applying medicine, it had no effect.
"Yun Wan!" Prince Rui stepped forward excitedly, picked her up, and slapped her face, but there was no reaction from her.
The imperial doctor was frightened and said hurriedly, "My lord, please put it down. This poison is very powerful and has a corrosive effect. Once it is contaminated, it will spread into the skin."
But this time Prince Rui was really sad and shouted her name.
"You can't die! If you die, how can I have the motivation to fight for that position again!"
Concubine Lin heard the prince's roar and rushed in. She saw that the prince ignored her and insisted on hugging Mrs. Gao, crying and saying this.
Concubine Lin was shocked, and then sad. She had never seen Prince Rui look like this before, even when Jin Xin pretended to be poisoned. Even though he was anxious and worried, he had never been so sad before.
Could it be that the person the prince actually loves is Gao?
