A trace of panic flashed across Old Lady Wang's eyes. She lowered her head and trembled, "It's because... the princess is kind-hearted. She drank a few mouthfuls of my milk when she was young, and she remembers my kindness. When she learned that my grandson had a strange disease, she said... since so many people wanted this medicine, it would be better to give it to me instead of giving it to someone who doesn't want it, as a way of repaying my kindness..."
Lin sneered. Princess Chengqian was indeed very hypocritical. The person she kept saying she didn't want to give it to was Princess Huaian, wasn't she?
Who doesn't know that Zhao Ziyin needs this medicine to save his life? She would rather give it to a slave than to Zhao Ziyin, ha!
Beside them, Madam Zhou's eyes lit up, and she whispered in Lin's ear, "Madam, why don't we present this elixir to Princess Huai'an? If we can save Prince Mingyin, it will be a great achievement!"
In fact, even without Zhou's mother saying anything, Lin thought the same.
Since such a precious elixir has passed through her hands, it means that God is giving her the opportunity to make a contribution!
Mrs. Wang also heard these words. She was immediately terrified and banged her head loudly. That was her grandson's life!
She raised her head, blood spreading from her forehead to her mouth, which looked a little scary in the dark night.
"Madam, please have mercy on me and return the medicine to me!"
"That's my grandson's life! Without this medicine, he won't survive!"
Lin smiled contemptuously, "Mrs. Wang, you should be thankful that this medicine can save a noble man. He is much more useful alive than your grandson."
"I don't want your money for nothing, Mother Zhou, give her one thousand taels!"
"This one thousand taels is enough for your retirement..."
"I don't want old age care. If my grandson dies, I won't live anymore! Madam, please be kind! You can't take the medicine away!"
Mrs. Wang crawled towards Lin like crazy, hugged her thighs and cried.
Lin was impatient and wanted to shake her off, but how could a noble lady like her compare to the strength of an old woman?
Seeing this, Mother Zhou wanted to pull Wang Po away, but Wang Po was really desperate. She wiped Lin's leg with her snot and tears. Lin gritted her teeth and called the servant, forcibly pulled Wang Po away, and then threw her out of the house.
By the way, a silver note was lost on her.
Mrs. Wang looked at the banknotes in her hand, paused for a while, then tore the banknotes into pieces like crazy, and then screamed at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"The Prime Minister's wife is taking human life lightly!"
Lin had no choice but to have Wang Po brought in again and locked up in the woodshed. After the matter was settled, she would find an opportunity to knock Wang Po unconscious and drown her in a pond to prevent future troubles!
In order to avoid any more trouble, Lin was anxious to show her achievements to Zhao Yao and entered the palace overnight.
Then he presented the life-saving golden elixir to Zhao Yao.
Zhao Yao couldn't believe it for a moment, until Lin told him the whole story of how she got the medicine. Zhao Yao called the imperial physician with doubt, and after the imperial physician examined the medicine, he gave it to Zhao Ziyin.
Several people looked at Zhao Ziyin with sharp eyes, waiting for him to wake up.
About two hours later, the sky began to brighten and Zhao Ziyan slowly woke up.
"mother……"
Zhao Yao hadn't heard Zhao Ziyan call her mother for a long time. She was so excited that tears streamed down her face. She hugged Zhao Ziyan for a long time until Zhao Ziyan said he was tired and about to fall asleep due to exhaustion. Only then did Zhao Yao come to her senses.
Realizing that her Ziyin was really fine.
Sure enough, God treated her well.
Zhao Ying tried her best to kill her Ziyin, and even lied and refused to give her the medicine, but who would have thought that the medicine would still fall into her hands!
God is truly merciful!
Zhao Yao's long-accumulated anger finally dissipated. She looked at Lin and said slowly, "You are the benefactor of me and Ziyin. As long as I am here, I will ensure that you will live a life of wealth and glory!"
Upon hearing this, Lin knelt down to express her gratitude, overjoyed.
In order to further show her courtesy to Zhao Yao, Lin stood up and said, "Princess Chengqian has really shot herself in the foot this time. She keeps saying that she ate that little mute. Your Highness, if the Crown Prince knew the truth..."
"Princess Chengqian is always pretending to be kind and benevolent in order to win the heart of the Crown Prince. If the Crown Prince knew her true face..."
Lin looked at Zhao Yao complacently, wanting to get Zhao Yao's approval, but Zhao Yao showed no expression and was not very interested in this idea.
No one knows Shangguan Shu's feelings for Zhao Ying better than her!
The system said that he had fallen in love with Zhao Ying.
What kind of person is Shangguan Shu? When he loves someone, he tolerates his mistakes in every way and doesn't care what the other person does. The incident when she put a curse on Zhao Ying was just like that!
She no longer expected to use Zhao Ying's mistakes to make Shangguan Shu change his mind.
She had thought of a better way.
Eh? Something's wrong...
No matter how soft-hearted Zhao Ying is, he can never give such a precious elixir to a slave!
Originally, she didn't think the medicine was real, so she didn't listen much to Lin's words. Now that Ziyin has taken it and recovered from the illness, it proves that the medicine is really real!
Is Zhao Ying crazy? Giving such a precious elixir to a woman who only fed her a few sips of milk?
Zhao Yao suddenly asked Lin, "Did you see with your own eyes that Nanny Li give the medicine to Granny Wang?"
"I didn't see it. It was my subordinate, Mrs. Zhou, who saw it."
Zhao Yao thought for a moment, "Did Nanny Li say anything?"
Lin frowned, as if reminiscing. After a while, she said, "I remember now. Madam Zhou said that Madam Li's expression was quite fierce. It didn't look like sympathy, but more like... being threatened..."
Lin suddenly thought of something and widened her eyes, "Could it be..."
Zhao Yao also reacted.
"That old woman Wang has been in the palace for over ten years. Before she left, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was a close confidant of Empress Xiaomin... If she knew any secrets, she could use them to blackmail Princess Chengqian..."
"It must be! That's why Princess Chengqian gave such precious medicine to Mrs. Wang!"
Lin repeatedly confirmed her guess, her heart beating faster, and she looked at Zhao Yao excitedly.
Zhao Yao's eyebrows darkened, and she asked coldly, "Where is Mrs. Wang now?"
"I've locked up Mrs. Wang in my house!"
"Bring her here now, I want to interrogate her!"
…
Wang Po was brought into the palace.
Zhao Yao dismissed all the palace maids and left only Lin.
Looking at Wang Po at the steps below, Zhao Yao stretched out her voice, "Are you Wang, the former midwife in the palace?"
Mrs. Wang raised her head fearfully, then lowered it suddenly, her voice as soft as a mosquito, "This servant... is Mrs. Wang..."
Zhao Yao fiddled with her armor and sneered, "Do you know who I am?"
"Slave...I don't know!"
Lin said in a domineering tone, "This is the Second Prince, the honorable Princess Huai'an!"
Mrs. Wang kowtowed quickly, "Your servant pays homage to Princess Huai'an! May the princess live a thousand years!"
"He's a man who knows the rules!"
"Since you understand the rules, you should know that I am holding your life in my hands right now. If I want you to live, you will live. If I want you to live a life worse than death, you will have no choice but to live a life worse than death!"
