Chapter 1 A Bowl of Poisoned Wine
"Someone, bring the Crown Princess some fine wine sent as tribute from the Western Regions." The woman in gorgeous clothes gave the order, and the servants beside her immediately came over and held down the woman who had already lost all her strength due to hunger.
The woman was wearing an old white dress that was a few years old, and there was no decoration on her hair. If no one explained, no one would have thought that she was the Crown Prince's Consort of the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion.
Liu Mingyue had no strength to resist. The people who were holding her down held her down. One of them pried open her mouth, took a bowl of wine, and forced it down her throat.
She was fed too quickly and she didn't want to drink, so the alcohol went straight into her nose, choking her and making her cough.
After drinking a bowl of wine, even though she struggled hard, some of the wine still went down her throat.
She knew that this couldn't be ordinary wine. They came today definitely because they wanted her dead!
The person who was holding her down let go of her hands, and she immediately put her hand down her throat, trying to induce vomiting. However, the poison took effect very quickly, and she felt a dull pain in her heart.
She raised her eyes, looked at the gorgeously dressed woman in front of her, and asked, "Why...why do you treat me like this? Haven't I been tolerant of you enough over the years? You poisoned me and ruined my appearance. You didn't want to marry a cripple, so I married for you. Your family fell into poverty, and I gave your family so much money."
"Now, you are with him, and I agree to divorce you as long as you return my dowry to me. You want to kill me just to take my money?"
"Hehe, since you have married into the Marquis' Mansion, your dowry naturally belongs to the Marquis' Mansion." The man's cold voice came.
Liu Mingyue looked at the handsome man striding towards her in disbelief. Her eyes fell on his legs. When did these legs get better?
Qin Zhuoyan saw her gaze and sneered, "Liu Mingyue, you didn't expect that my legs have been cured. It's all thanks to your friend who is a genius doctor. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to leave the wheelchair."
"It's a pity that he made an unreliable friend like you. If I were healthy, wouldn't I have consummated my marriage with you? No man can bring himself to do that to your ugly face. Naturally, he can only continue to pretend to be a cripple. Then, he who knows the truth can only die."
Liu Mingyue only felt a sharp pain in her heart. She couldn't believe that Bai Ziyu died because of him!
Zhou Baili snuggled happily in Qin Zhuoyan's arms and said, "You are going to die anyway, so before you die, I will tell you one more thing. The reason why your father who died long ago died was actually because my father did it in order to occupy his military merits and take away his wife. In fact, this cannot be blamed on my father. If you want to blame someone, blame your slutty mother. She is a pair of slutty shoes, and she seduced my father. Your father deserves to die."
"By the way, isn't your mother unaware of her life experience? Didn't she have a jade pendant with her since she was a child? That jade pendant was taken away by Aunt Zhao, who took your mother's place as the daughter of the Prime Minister. It's a pity that my mother is the legitimate daughter of the Zhao family and there is no way she could be wrong, otherwise it would be my mother who would become the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister. But thank you mother for letting Aunt Zhao enter the Prime Minister's Mansion. Otherwise, with the current situation of the Zhou family, it would be a bit difficult for me to become the Crown Prince's Consort."
"That's all, Sister Mingyue. I hope you can be born into a good family in your next life and marry a man of your dreams. But with your looks, it won't be easy."
