Chun He certainly wouldn't go. She pushed Cui Mixue away with all her might, "Miss Cui, it's not too late to teach you about etiquette another day."
"Who's the master?" Cui Mixue scolded, "It seems Consort Su really hasn't disciplined you well. You don't understand the rules at all!"
Chun He was so anxious that she was about to cry, and she almost knelt down before her. "Miss Cui, the young lady's life is in danger, please let me go."
"What a joke! Concubine Su is right here in the Eastern Palace. It's heavily guarded. How could there be any danger?" Cui Mixue looked even angrier. "You did something wrong and broke the rules, yet you're using your master to excuse yourself. You deserve to be punished!"
"The young lady was taken away by the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine wanted to kill her." Chun He told the truth. She thought Cui Mixue would show mercy to her and let her go to rescue others because of their previous friendship.
Who knew that Cui Mixue was just stunned for a moment, then sneered, "She lied without thinking. The Imperial Concubine is of noble status, how could she bother with a concubine?"
"Come with me." Cui Mixue reached out to pull her, but Chunhe's strength became very strong at that moment, and she pushed her far away. When she fell, she turned around and ran away.
"Miss, are you alright?" Bi Wu quickly helped her up. Cui Mixue brushed off the dust on her dress. "Find someone to go to Luanfeng Palace and warn the Imperial Concubine. Don't let her know it was my order."
"Yes." Biwu responded and left.
Cui Mixue walked back slowly. She had tried her best to kill Su Mengyan before but failed. Now with Concubine Bai here, and her secretly fanning the flames, she didn't believe Su Mengyan could still survive!
Thinking that she would never have to see Su Mengyan again, Cui Mixue was extremely happy. She walked briskly with a smile on her face.
The palace where Yunfu lived was not far from the East Palace, but when Chunhe ran there, she went to the Imperial Garden, so they were delayed for a long time.
The people sent by Biwu have already returned from Luanfeng Palace.
Su Mengyan used some methods that Situ Yao had taught her before to break free from Chunhua and Qiushi's restraints, and she didn't drink a single drop of the poisoned tea.
Concubine Bai saw that she was out of breath from running and sneered, "I wonder how long you can keep running!"
"Instead of making us all so tired, you might as well drink it obediently. Maybe if I'm happy, I can give you a proper burial and won't let you be thrown into a mass grave after your death." Concubine Bai came over with the poison, and she walked towards her step by step with great grace.
When Su Mengyan approached her, she suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed her. Concubine Bai couldn't prevent her little movement and fell backwards. She didn't hold the teacup firmly in her hand and it fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Chunhua and Qiushi were afraid that their master would get hurt, so they didn't care about Su Mengyan at all and ran over to check on Concubine Bai.
Su Mengyan took this opportunity to open the door and ran out. She underestimated Concubine Bai's determination to kill her, and when she opened the door, she was thrown back by the palace maid who knew martial arts.
Concubine Bai had already cleaned up. She looked at her slowly and said, "Don't waste your energy. Even if you run your legs off, you won't be able to escape from this Luanfeng Palace."
"You conspired with the Crown Prince to betray me. Do you think you can survive in the palace?" Su Mengyan smashed the teacup. Concubine Bai sent someone to bring another bottle of poisoned wine. "That was poison. After drinking it, you won't feel any pain. It's a pity you broke it."
"In that case, the only thing left is this Heartbreaking Powder. Within an hour, you will bleed from all seven orifices and die. It will be an extremely ugly death." Concubine Bai gave a detailed description. This time she learned from the previous lesson and tied Su Mengyan's hands directly.
Just when he was about to force her to drink it, the palace maid outside the door rushed in hurriedly and whispered a few words into Concubine Bai's ear.
After a while, Concubine Bai sneered condescendingly, "You've been trying so hard to deal with me for so long, are you sure that loser Yunfu will come to save you?"
Su Mengyan was slightly startled. It seemed that Yunfu had also been blocked out by this vicious woman. Was she really going to die here today? She thought sadly.
Seeing that she was silent, Concubine Bai thought she was afraid and said even more complacently, "Let alone Yunfu, even if the prince came, he couldn't save you."
Now that she knew the result, Su Mengyan stopped struggling and said nothing, becoming a completely different person from before.
Concubine Bai felt strange, but this was for the better. She handed the poisoned wine to Chunhua and said, "Let her drink it."
When the poisoned wine was brought to her lips, Su Mengyan suddenly opened her eyes and asked, "Your Highness, don't you want to know whether Prince Rui can finally ascend to the throne?"
"How dare you!" Concubine Bai was extremely angry. "Let her drink it! Block her mouth!"
Su Mengyan smiled calmly, "It's a pity that you and your son have planned your whole lives, but in the end, it's all in vain."
"You are about to die. Who can predict what will happen in the future?" Concubine Bai did not take her words seriously and was determined to make Su Mengyan drink the poisoned wine.
Outside the Luanfeng Palace, the palace maids received orders from Concubine Bai and were not afraid of Yun Fu at all. No matter how she threatened, she still stopped him from entering.
Chun He's eyes were red, tears about to flow from the corners of her eyes, "What should we do now? The young lady is definitely in danger."
"Let me think of a solution." Yun Fu was also pacing back and forth. She angrily rushed to the maid guarding the palace gate and said, "Get out of my way!"
"Princess, please forgive me." The maid kept her head down. "This is the Queen's order. Princess, please return."
Relying on the support of Concubine Bai, even Yun Fu, who is a princess, has no way out.
"Go find the Crown Prince. He's about to leave court," Yunfu whispered to Chunhe. "This place isn't far from the Qiankun Hall where they're holding meetings. Stop him on the road and bring the Crown Prince here."
"Hurry up." Yun Fu saw Chun He didn't leave and shouted, "Why don't you hurry up? I'm here to watch over her. Yan'er will be fine."
Chun He left in a hurry. She calculated the time and waited on the road that had to be taken when leaving the court. After a long time, after the ministers came and went, she finally saw Situ Yao coming out.
"Your Highness, please save the young lady." Chun He's voice was filled with tears. "She has been taken to Luanfeng Palace by the Imperial Concubine."
Situ Yao's face turned gloomy in an instant, and he walked towards the Luanfeng Palace like a gust of wind.
They had guessed before that Concubine Bai would not let Su Mengyan go, so Situ Yao increased the guards in the East Palace, fearing that she would attack secretly.
However, no one expected that Concubine Bai would be so blatant and directly detain the person in Luanfeng Palace.
When Situ Yao arrived, Yun Fu was bargaining with the palace maid. Seeing him coming, as if he had found his backbone, he ran over quickly, "Brother Crown Prince, Yan'er has been locked up by Concubine Bai."
