"Tell me, have you hidden the Fourth Princess away?!"
Jiang Jiaojiao had never been so angry before; her heart was filled with rage.
Jiang Jingtian was filled with murderous intent, his eyes bloodshot as he stared intently at the Seventh Princess, as if he wanted to devour her alive: "What are you going to do to her!"
The Seventh Princess was taken aback by the two's questioning, but quickly recovered and looked at Jiang Jingtian and Jiang Jiaojiao with disdain, "You won't find her! Even if you do... it'll be too late, hahahaha..."
After saying that, she laughed triumphantly, her voice filled with malice.
Jiang Jiaojiao's eyes flashed with anger: "What exactly do you want?!"
The seventh princess still wore a smug smile on her face.
She glanced at Jiang Jingtian and said disdainfully, "I said, she's a cursed star who brings misfortune to heaven and earth, only fit for a political marriage! Commander Jiang can only be my consort!"
Jiang Jiaojiao glared at the Seventh Princess through gritted teeth: "So vicious at such a young age!"
"Who does she think she is? She's not even worth a finger of mine! Someone like her, a jinx who brings misfortune to heaven and earth, should be killed on the spot!"
The Seventh Princess's face was filled with disgust and hatred, and she revealed a cruel smile.
At that moment, Jiang Jiaojiao realized that she had really misjudged the situation.
Okay, okay!
She had just been saying that the Seventh Princess was young and not very bright, but now it seems she is both stupid and vicious, so she can't be blamed.
Just when everyone thought Jiang Jiaojiao was about to back down, she suddenly made her move.
With lightning speed, he grabbed the Seventh Princess's chin and quickly stuffed a pill into her mouth. The pill melted instantly in her mouth, and the Seventh Princess was terrified.
What did you give me to eat?
The seventh princess tried to vomit in terror, but nothing came out.
"Hehe, this is a deadly poison. Tell me where Fourth Sister is, or... you'll die from the poison and abdominal pain."
Jiang Jiaojiao had lost her patience.
"You—you dare!"
The Seventh Princess stared wide-eyed at Jiang Jiaojiao in disbelief.
"Whether you dare or not, I've already done it. If you want to live, confess now!"
Jiang Jiaojiao's tone was full of threat. She had no intention of dealing with the Seventh Princess and only wanted to find her Fourth Sister as soon as possible.
Jiang Jingtian was quite startled by Jiang Jiaojiao's sudden action, but at this moment, his biggest concern was the safety of the Fourth Princess.
Although the Fourth Princess is a princess, she has always been gentle and kind. Consort Mei is timid and cowardly, so how could she possibly offend other concubines for her sake?
Thinking of this, Jiang Jingtian became increasingly anxious.
"ah--"
"This princess is going to kill you—"
The seventh princess was furious.
None of the eunuchs and maids around him could protect him; Jiang Jiaojiao had actually fed him poison.
Suddenly, I felt a sharp, excruciating pain in my abdomen.
The pain made her kneel down abruptly, rolling on the ground, crying out, "Ah—it hurts so much!"
"You wretch! I want to kill—ah! Give me the antidote!"
Jiang Jiaojiao watched as the Seventh Princess writhed on the ground in pain, but remained unmoved.
The palace maids and eunuchs were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their bodies trembled.
"Whoever tells me the whereabouts of the Fourth Princess, I will spare his life and request permission from the Imperial Concubine to take her away from the Seventh Princess!"
"If no one speaks up, we can only watch the Seventh Princess die in agony. Heh, I wonder how Consort Li will deal with you after the Seventh Princess's accident?"
Jiang Jiaojiao looked at the trembling palace maids and eunuchs. Given how much Consort Li cared about the Seventh Princess, they only had one way out: death!
really……
These words were spoken.
The eunuchs and palace maids were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground, their faces filled with despair, their bodies trembling, and they didn't even dare to look up at Jiang Jiaojiao.
suddenly--
A frail, thin palace maid suddenly stood up, her voice trembling, "This servant knows, they locked the Fourth Princess in the back courtyard, and also..."
The palace maid gritted her teeth and stared at Jiang Jiaojiao, her face deathly pale. She knew in her heart that this was her only chance!
Jiang Jiaojiao said coldly, "I keep my word!"
The Seventh Princess flew into a rage, "You lowly servant—you're not allowed to speak!"
"ah--"
The tearing abdominal pain made her clutch her stomach in agony, letting out heart-wrenching cries of pain. She felt as if a thousand ants were gnawing at her stomach, and the pain almost made her vomit blood.
Her eyes flashed with anger and fear as she stared intently at Jiang Jiaojiao, her heart filled with unbelievable horror.
She never imagined that Jiang Jiaojiao would actually dare to poison her!
However, her long-standing pride and arrogance made her unwilling to submit easily. Moreover, although she was young, she knew that if this matter were taken to her father, the emperor, she would be in trouble.
Her father will not forgive her easily.
The young palace maid trembled, but with a resolute air, she said, "They also sent several...several eunuchs to inform Her Majesty the Empress to catch them...catching them in the act of adultery!"
"I overheard it by accident..."
These words were spoken.
Jiang Jiaojiao's face instantly turned extremely gloomy. She had really underestimated the treacherous schemes of the harem. Jiang Jingtian, on the other hand, was completely stunned, as if he had been struck by lightning.
I can't believe it.
That's the fourth princess...
How dare Consort Li and the Seventh Princess?
Upon hearing the maid's words, the Seventh Princess panicked, never expecting that their scheme had been overheard by a mere maid.
The seventh princess clutched her stomach tightly with both hands, letting out a piercing scream: "Drag this wretched servant out and beat her to death—"
"Come with me! Lead the way!"
Jiang Jiaojiao glanced at the Seventh Princess expressionlessly. She really shouldn't have given this woman any stomach pain powder; she should have just given her a real poison that would kill her intestines!
At that moment, she finally understood that there really are some people in the world who are born evil!
A born evil being reborn into the belly of an evil person!
The young palace maid hurriedly got up from the ground and led the way, her body trembling.
She knew in her heart that since she had decided to betray the Seventh Princess, she could only save her life by relying on Jiang Jiaojiao. Neither the Seventh Princess nor Consort Li would let her go.
But she had no choice; her sister Qing'er was beaten to death right before her eyes.
Will she be next?
Thinking of this, the little palace maid trembled involuntarily; this was her only chance!
Jiang Jiaojiao's gaze was icy as she swept her eyes over the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs: "The only way for you to save your lives now is to atone for your crimes by doing good deeds. Think carefully about the bad things that the Seventh Princess and Consort Li have done."
"Ah—I'm going to kill you!"
"I'll kill you!"
The seventh princess screamed.
Jiang Jiaojiao heard the Seventh Princess screaming, which was too noisy, so she quickly went over, unfolded the handkerchief hidden in her sleeve, and covered the princess's mouth and nose. With just one breath, the Seventh Princess collapsed to the ground and fainted.
The palace maids and eunuchs had no time to react and were filled with despair.
Jiang Jiaojiao pointed at the ugliest-looking father-in-law in the crowd: "You, carry her and come with me!"
Having said that, he instructed the young palace maid to lead the way.
Carrying Jiang Jingtian and the eunuch who had unhesitatingly carried the Fourth Princess, they stormed straight towards the Golden Branch Pavilion where Consort Li was located.
