Zhao Shiqing was born with a unique gift: she could understand animal speech. When her entire family was murdered in her childhood, she miraculously survived and was adopted by King Liang.

Chapter 193 Who is the bitch talking about (two chapters in one)
There are many people in the manor, including guards, but Madam Wei is a person who abides by the rules.
Of course, Mrs. Wei's rules do not include her son and grandson.
Except for these two, everyone in Baoqing Marquis Mansion and Zhuangzi must abide by her rules unconditionally.
Even though this is a manor, the place where she lives belongs to the inner house. According to the rules, servants over the age of thirteen are not allowed to enter or leave the inner house, and as for guards, it is even more forbidden.
Therefore, at this moment, there were no guards in the inner house, not even adult men.
Women have a natural fear of snakes.
Two brave old women rushed into the inner room and tried to use sticks to push away the snake that was crawling on Madam Wei's body. However, as soon as they approached, a snake spewed its tongue and pounced towards their hands. Fortunately, they dodged quickly, otherwise they would have been bitten.
The two were so frightened that they lost their souls. Fu Jiao could no longer make a sound and she collapsed to the ground.
Countless snakes crawled past her and onto Madam Wei's bed. Fu Jiao had heard that not all snakes were poisonous, but there were very few snakes in the capital, and she had grown up in the Marquis' Mansion since she was a child. This was the first time she had seen a real snake. Before this, she had only seen bamboo snakes played by children. How could she tell whether they were poisonous or not?
Mrs. Wei's bed was already crawling densely with snakes. They crawled onto her body and face and crawled into her quilt. Mrs. Wei finally woke up. She drank the tranquilizing soup and slept very soundly. If it weren't for the snakes biting her, she would not have woken up.
She opened her eyes, took a quick look, and then fainted.
The strong and unyielding old lady Wei was actually frightened to death.
The guards finally came after hearing the news. Fu Jiao ignored the old lady's rules and let the guards into the old lady's inner room. Some of them were familiar with snakes and were frightened by the snakes on the bed at first, but after a closer look, they were relieved because these snakes were not poisonous.
There are rarely any poisonous snakes around the capital, most of them are non-venomous snakes like this.
Knowing that these snakes were not poisonous, everyone became bolder. Someone was about to kill them with a knife, but a slightly older leader stopped him.
"No, this is Liu Xian. You can't kill her. Don't you think today's events are a little strange? When have you ever seen so many snakes? This must be Liu Xian appearing. These snakes cannot be killed."
Everyone thought the same and looked at Madam Wei who was still unconscious.
The old lady was not a good person. Perhaps she had done something to offend Liu Xian. In anger, Liu Xian called all his descendants over.
No one wants to open their eyes to find a bed full of snakes, so it’s better not to provoke them.
The guards carefully put the snakes into sacks and then carefully took them to the mountain to release them.
While the doctor was treating Madam Wei, several distinguished maids asked the maid to prepare incense, candles and fruits, and asked Master Liu Xian to show leniency and stop scaring people.
Mrs. Wei didn't wake up until almost dawn.
Unfortunately, she did not forget the scene before she fell into a coma, and she would remember it until her death.
As for the maids saying that it was Liu Xian who was causing trouble, Mrs. Wei didn't believe it.
"It's all weird and supernatural!"
There was something that Madam Wei kept in her heart and didn't say out loud. If gods really existed, wouldn't those people who died at her hands turn into evil ghosts and come to her every night to seek revenge?
No, never.
So these snakes were not the manifestation of Liu Xian at all, but someone was warning her!
Yes, warn her, not kill her!
If you want to kill her, not all snakes will be non-venomous. If you want to kill her, one venomous snake will be enough.
The person behind the scenes wanted to scare her and warn her.
What is the warning?
And who could this person be?
Old Madam Wei gritted her teeth. That bitch, Concubine Li, must be her, it must be her!
Why hadn't she been warned before, but now?
Need I ask?
Because those four people are missing!
This shows that Concubine Li has always known about the existence of those four people. She didn't take action because she was worried that those four people would stand in front of people. Now that she is sure that those four people are gone, she shows her claws.
If it were someone else, they might not think so, but Madam Wei was different. She was a person holding a big secret. Let alone a bed of snakes, even if it was just one snake, she would think it was a conspiracy against her and would expand this conspiracy tenfold or a hundredfold.
"Bitch, bitch, you forced me to do this, you forced me to do this!"
Mrs. Wei's soul-stirring cry frightened the two cats eavesdropping on the roof so much that their whiskers stood up.
Meow, the cat is scared to death!
As for why these snakes rushed around and ran onto Madam Wei's bed?
Everyone has their own answer.
Madam Wei: The bitch warned me!
Everyone: The old lady is so wicked, the Willow Fairy appears!
After hearing about this, Ruanruan ate some melon seeds, then suddenly hugged her stomach and yelled to the maid standing next to her, "I want some bird's nest porridge. Tell the kitchen to make it!"
The maid rolled her eyes and was about to say something sarcastic, but then she glared at me softly: "You haven't finished accusing me of cheating yet."
The maid was feeling miserable. She had clearly seen a man enter the room, but no one believed her.
She could only drag her injured leg and limp to the kitchen.
Seeing her leave, Ruanruan showed a smug smile on her face.
Yesterday, the androgynous man told her that as long as she sprinkled the powder on Madam Wei, he would give her a prescription to remove freckles.
Women will develop spots on their faces to a greater or lesser extent when they are pregnant, and even the concubines in the palace will have them. However, most women turn into yellow-faced women after giving birth, and the spots on their faces will not only not fade away, but will become more severe year by year.
But the ladies in the palace had faces like peeled eggs, and they looked like they were in their prime even when they were in their forties or fifties.
Why?
Because there is a secret recipe for removing freckles in the palace. If you use this recipe, even if you turn into a salt-free yaksha, you will regain your beauty.
For Ruanruan, her appearance is her confidence. If her face is ruined, it will be useless to give birth to a son. Not only will Lord Zhu feel disgusted when he sees her, but she herself will also feel disgusted.
What?
You say it's not worth taking risks for a recipe?
The person who said this is either a man or an ordinary-looking person who has no idea what beauty is. He has never been a beauty and has never enjoyed the benefits of beauty, so he does not understand how important beauty is to a woman like her.
The pink embroidered shoes hung on her toes, swaying, just like Ruanruan's current mood, relaxed yet expectant.
Meow~
A cat's meow was heard outside the window. Runrun's eyes lit up and she quickly opened the window. The orange cat from yesterday was standing on the windowsill with a sachet hanging around its neck.
Ruanruan's heart was beating like a deer with excitement, and she looked at the orange cat as if she was looking at a generous benefactor.
"Are you here? Are you tired? Ouch, your little neck is so thin from being squeezed. Let me rub it for you."
She untied the sachet from Dapang's neck softly and deftly, and did not forget to offer her cherry lips and kiss Dapang on the nose.
Big Fatty: Sister Yao is going to dislike Wo again.
Ruanruan opened the sachet and found a prescription inside. She opened the prescription and it really was a prescription!
Ruanruan only took one look and could confirm that the recipe was real because all the things written on it were good things.
Her face is saved!
Ruanruan has good taste, this recipe is absolutely true.
For this prescription, Xiao Zhen went home in person and asked the princess for it.
This was the first time he returned home after returning to the capital. The last time they met was at Su Ji Tea Shop.
That time, the princess and her husband disguised themselves and sneaked in to see their son...
This time Xiao Zhen came back in person, and the princess's mother and the prince consort were flattered. Not to mention a beauty recipe, even if Xiao Zhen asked for half of the family property now, they would agree.
In short, although Xiao Zhen returned home secretly this time, he felt good and he also met his little sister by the way.
It’s just that Princess Jiayi wanted him to hug her sister, but he was reluctant to move.
It smells so good and is so soft, he dares not hug it.
"Why not hug me? I want to hug you just because you said that."
In Ruyi Boat, after hearing Xiao Zhen talk about that little sister, Zhao Shiqing felt sorry for him.
Unfortunately, she has no younger sister, not even the legendary annoying younger brother.
She has always been the little sister, always the little one in the eyes of her family, and she really wants to be a big sister.
"Who does your sister look like, the eldest princess or Prince Consort Xiao?"
No matter who they look like, they will be a beauty. Both of them are very good-looking.
Xiao Zhen shook his head: "I can't tell who she looks like, she's just very white, so white that it's transparent, and looks like it will break if touched."
Having said that, his eyes fell on Zhao Shiqing's face.
When I first saw her, her face and body were very dirty because she was dug out from a corpse pit by wild dogs. But in fact, she must have been very white and fragrant at that time, like a jade doll.
Why didn't he take a closer look at that time?
He was so stupid when he was a child!
"I'm talking about your sister. Why are you looking at me? If you keep looking, I'll charge you money!"
Zhao Shiqing put his hands on his hips and threatened with a stern face.
Xiao Zhen smiled and shook his head. He really wanted to tell her that he just liked looking at her.
But he knew that now was not the time.
Just as Zhen Wuduo said, he doesn't deserve it!
He is still a person who dares not even show his true face.
He changed the subject: "Concubine Li is having a hard time."
Madam Wei is cruel, not stupid.
Knowing that Concubine Li was threatening her, she would not fight back.
On the contrary, she would pretend to be sick, making Concubine Li think that she would not live long and was no longer able to cause trouble.
But secretly, she will never stop.
Zhao Shiqing was a little anxious: "I hope she won't make me wait too long."
And Madam Wei did not disappoint Zhao Shiqing. Just as Xiao Zhen said, within two days, the news that Madam Wei was about to die spread from Zhuangzi to the capital.
It is said that Madam Wei was frightened and suffered another stroke. This time, she could not even speak.
The news reached the palace, and Emperor Yongjia sent the imperial physician to Zhuangzi. After the imperial physician came back, Concubine Li summoned him personally.
"How is my cousin?" Concubine Li asked with concern.
The imperial physician sighed, "The old lady is not in good condition. Although she seems to be conscious, she can no longer speak. No matter what she wants to say, the only word she can say is 'sit down'."
Yes, when the imperial physician saw Madam Wei, she was yelling at the maid: "Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit!"
The maidservant didn't understand, so Madam Wei shouted even louder, like a madman.
Later, they smelled something wrong and realized that it was because Mrs. Wei had urinated.
The imperial physician recounted everything he had seen and heard from the maids. Concubine Li's eyes became brighter and brighter. Was the huge rock pressing on her heart finally going to collapse on its own?
Very good!
If she wanted to kill Madam Wei, she would have done it long ago.
But she didn't dare.
No one knows better than her who Madam Wei is.
She could imagine that as soon as she killed Madam Wei, the secret of that year would be exposed to the public.
That old bitch will definitely have a backup plan.
So over the years, she respected and flattered the old bitch, turning all of her children and grandchildren into good-for-nothings, leaving the old bitch without even a single useful descendant in the end.
She doesn't even need to do anything, the old bitch's sons and grandsons will be able to anger her to death.
And now, this old bitch is finally about to die. No, even if she doesn't die, she will be a useless person.
Concubine Li is not a smart person. All her intelligence in this life has been used to get along with Old Madam Wei.
They are the best and closest sisters, the best sisters in the world, hahahaha!
Concubine Li laughed out loud. This was the most hearty laugh she had ever had in all these years.
No one knows how she managed to survive all these years of anxiety. No one knows.
She would keep that secret to herself and take it to the grave.
As for the one sitting on the dragon throne, she would never reveal a single word until her death.
As long as she doesn't speak, even if she can't be the empress dowager when she is alive, as long as she dies in front of the empress dowager, she will be posthumously named empress dowager even after her death.
Of course, the prerequisite is that she must live a healthy life and must die in front of the Empress Dowager.
"That old bastard, he's eaten so many pills, why hasn't he died yet?"
Thinking of the retired emperor in Changshou Palace, Concubine Li gritted her teeth.
Old Madam Wei could no longer pose a threat to her. In Concubine Li's heart, she was as good as dead. From now on, she was too lazy to even think about her.
Therefore, the person that Concubine Li hates the most now is only one person, and that is the retired emperor.
This old man not only made her sacrifice her youth, but also her own flesh and blood, but in the end he refused to even give her the position of queen.
Her son had already become the emperor, but that old man still refused to let her be the empress dowager.
Concubine Li clenched her fists. That old immortal was an immortal cultivator. If she was not afraid of backlash, she would have written down his birth date and stabbed him in the heart day and night, causing him to die of pain!
That old immortal hasn't done many good things in his life. He must be afraid of being cursed to death, so he goes to practice Taoism, hoping that the ancestors will bless him. Bah!
Concubine Li closed the door and cursed bitterly. At this time, the eunuch said outside: "Concubine, Concubine Qiao is here to pay her respects to you."
There was a hint of disgust in Concubine Li's eyes. What was that bitch doing here?
That’s right, in the eyes of Concubine Li, all the women in the palace are bitches.
The old concubine left by the retired emperor was a bitch, and the women in Emperor Yongjia's harem were also bitches.
