Chapter 256 Poisoning



The first time Bai Yan faced Bai Jinjin, he was at a loss.

The bedroom was filled with awkwardness, and Bai Yan had no choice but to leave first.

Bai Jinjin revealed her true form only after seeing Bai Yan leave. "Oh my god, this is really too cold."

Bai Jinjin didn't breathe a sigh of relief until she changed into clean clothes, and then hurriedly drank a cup of hot water to warm herself.

"We can go watch the fireworks now." Bai Jinjin cleared her slightly blocked nose.

Zi Ling walked in in a panic, "Your Highness, something's wrong."

"How do you know I'm not well?" Bai Jinjin looked at Zi Ling blankly.

"No, it was the Sixth Princess." Zi Ling took a breath, calmed her breathing and said, "It was the Sixth Princess who wanted to harm the Third Prince."

Bai Jinjin was stunned when she heard this, "When?"

"The dinner hasn't started yet, it should be around that time." Zi Ling said after a moment of hesitation.

"Then why are you so nervous? Come with me to watch the fireworks." Bai Jinjin waved her hand and took Zi Ling's hand and was about to go out.

The three people who had already reached the city wall did not see Bai Jinjin, and thought something had happened, so they turned around and wanted to look for her.

"Where are you going?" Bai Jinjin just went up to the city wall and saw three people trying to rush down in a hurry.

Bai Jing heaved a sigh of relief when he saw her. "Where have you been all this time? We didn't see you when we came here."

"I went back and changed into another set of clothes that I like." Bai Jinjin turned around in front of them and said with a smile.

"I'm glad you're alright. Take a look at your New Year's gift. Do you like it?" Ye Jiuge touched her slightly damp hair and his eyes darkened. "If you don't like it, you'll have to accept it."

Bai Jinjin was amused, "How can you give gifts like this?"

"Don't just look at him, we two have prepared something for you too." Bai Yu curled his lips and gave Ye Jiuge a look.

The girl held out her hand, "Where are your two gifts, second brother?"

"I left it in your bedroom. Didn't you see it when you returned to the palace?"

"I was in a hurry to go back and change clothes, so I didn't even look at the table." Bai Jinjin spread her hands and said.

Bai Jing chuckled, "The fireworks are about to start, so you two should stop worrying about this."

The stars twinkled and the fireworks exploded in the sky, unexpectedly taking on the appearance of wisteria flowers.

"Have you two updated the fireworks again?" Bai Jinjin looked at the two of them happily.

Bai Yu looked at Bai Jinjin proudly and said, "Actually, my brother and I had this idea originally, but I didn't implement it because I went to the border."

Bai Jinjin held Ye Jiuge's hand, her eyes full of stars. "This is the first New Year I've spent with you, and it won't be the last."

"I believe you." Ye Jiuge can't say sweet words, but everything he does says he loves you.

"These two people are so annoying." Bai Yu looked at Ye Jiuge with a look of dissatisfaction.

Bai Jing shook his head. "Then why don't you try hard and let them eat your dog food for once?"

After hearing this, Bai Yu waved his hands awkwardly and said, "Forget it, let them show off."

Fireworks are beautiful, but short-lived.

Half an hour passed, the fireworks ended, but the folk fireworks had just begun.

Thousands of houses are brightly lit and children are playing and chasing each other.

A peaceful scene.

"I really like the Qin State now. There is no suffering, no war, and no natural disasters."

Bai Jinjin looked at the scenery on the city wall with longing.

"I didn't expect Jinjin to have such lofty ambitions." Bai Jing said with a gentle smile.

Then he stepped forward and took Bai Jinjin's hand, "But the palace banquet is about to begin, let's go quickly."

Bai Lingling ordered Qinglian to help the imperial kitchen and put drugs in the third prince's meals.

"As long as he dies, all of this will have nothing to do with me. There will be no evidence." Bai Lingling sneered at the thought.

At the palace banquet, Bai Jinjin sat in her own seat, but Bai Yan's seat was rarely arranged next to her.

Even if Bai Jinjin used her toes to think, she knew that this matter was the Queen Mother's suggestion.

"Jinjin. If you feel uncomfortable, you can change seats with me." Bai Yu said quietly from the side.

Bai Jinjin knew that he was thinking about himself, but she still wanted to find out who had poisoned her. "No need, second brother. I believe the Third Prince won't do anything to me."

Seeing that Bai Yu was staring at him warily, Bai Yan clenched his fists and said nothing.

What right did he have to say that? After all, he had been bullying Bai Jinjin from the beginning to the end, and even allowed Bai Lingling to bully her.

"Third brother." Bai Lingling struggled to move her seat next to him.

The dog slave who ate money without spitting out bones asked for ten taels from me before he agreed to it.

"Yeah." Bai Yan nodded without even looking at Bai Lingling.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yan's attitude towards her was so cold. Bai Lingling calmed down when she thought about what happened in the koi pond.

The fact that he didn't say it proves that he still cares about me.

Bai Lingling was overthinking it. Compared to her, Bai Yan was more worried about whether Bai Jinjin had caught a cold.

"Have you drunk ginger soup?" Bai Yan hesitated and said to Bai Jinjin.

Finally speaking, Bai Jinjin looked at Bai Yan with a smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"Today is a new year again. I hope there will be no intrigues in the imperial palace." Bai Jun looked at Bai Lingling with sincerity.

The latter also frowned to hide his emotions.

"Your Highness, why don't you stop her?" Zi Ling became anxious when she saw Bai Jinjin eating calmly.

Although the Third Prince is annoying, Your Highness the Princess cannot let the Sixth Princess succeed.

Bai Jinjin glanced at Bai Yan and saw that he was staring at her. Bai Jinjin looked at him and said, "Don't eat your meal."

Bai Lingling, who was standing next to her, froze in laughter when she heard this. Could it be that her plan had been discovered?

Qinglian behind was also staring at the ground with a pale face.

"Why?" Bai Yan looked at Bai Jinjin in confusion but still put down his chopsticks.

Bai Jinjin patted the corner of her desk and said, "Come and eat with me."

Bai Yan, who didn't expect to receive an invitation, looked at Bai Jinjin in a daze.

"Come here." Seeing that he didn't move for a long time, Bai Jinjin signaled the servant behind him to move another thing and put it next to him.

Only then did Bai Yan sit down next to Bai Jinjin's desk.

Fortunately, Bai Jinjin wanted to eat so much that the table was bigger than any other princess's, just enough to accommodate two people.

The Queen Mother was very happy to see this scene. She smiled at Nanny Zhu behind her. It seemed that everything was developing in a good direction.

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured." Nanny Zhu whispered in the Queen Mother's ear.

Bai Jing and Bai Yu looked at each other, completely unaware of what had happened.
