Chapter 130 The teacup prepared by my brother is poisoned.
The brother and sister took turns hurling insults at each other, making Li Qingya and Li Qingyu regret ever coming along.
They huddled against the door, trembling, ready to flee at any moment.
Just then, Li Qingluo's gaze fell on the teapot beside her.
A calculating glint flashed in Li Kechuan's eyes.
He came to the princess's residence today to deal with her.
Wasn't she on good terms with the princess's household?
If he wants to use the Princess's Mansion as a backer to humiliate Zhu'er, then he will make sure that Zhu'er completely perishes in the Princess's Mansion from now on!
It would be best to turn against the princess's household and become enemies.
Li Kechuan: "Alright! I can let what happened earlier go. But you must drink this pot of tea today!"
Li Qingluo knew there was something fishy about what he said, but she still asked, "What does the eldest young master mean by this?"
Li Kechuan said coldly, "This is a pot of hot tea that the princess just bestowed upon us. She said it was a gift for the young ladies of the Li family. Zhu'er had already drunk a few cups before you arrived. Now that you're here, you should drink some too!"
Li Qingluo feigned hesitation.
"But this..."
Li Kechuan frowned deeply: "What are you still hesitating about? You've seen me like this, do you think I would harm you?"
“I just realized something. That is, I have no way to deal with you now. You win, Li Qingluo.”
"Since we're already at the princess's residence, let's use this pot of tea from the princess to turn hostility into friendship, shall we?"
“From now on, I will let you call me brother, and I will try my best to treat you and Zhu’er equally.”
As Li Kechuan spoke, he poured two cups of tea.
He picked up one of the cups and personally handed it to Li Qingluo.
If it were my past self hearing these words, I would have been overjoyed, wouldn't I?
Without a word, he would pick up the teacup and drink it all in one gulp.
Just because of his words, calling him "brother," he was treated the same as Li Qingzhu.
Li Qinglu couldn't help but laugh to herself.
Who did he think he was?
In this life, she no longer cared about him as her brother.
Who would want his disgusting charity, which he claims is fair to everyone?
May all ghosts die!
Li Qinglu clenched her fist and reached out to take the teacup.
Granny Deng said that he had tampered with the tea.
This pot of tea may not necessarily have been a gift from the princess's residence.
That's why Granny Deng was so certain.
But he said that in order to make her think that even if she drank the tea today and something happened to her, it was a poisonous scheme set up by the princess's mansion.
His goal was to make her an enemy of the princess's residence?
He just wanted to vent his anger on Li Qingzhu.
The Princess's residence did not send Li Qingzhu an invitation. The Princess's residence was on good terms with the Red Maple Pavilion, and Li Qingzhu was wronged in this matter.
He truly is the most devoted brother in the world.
Li Qing almost couldn't help but show a look of disdain.
But she held back in the end and put on a touching expression.
"Is it true? Ah, brother?"
After hearing those words, she seemed to soften.
Their attitude softened, and their eyes darted around.
She even looked up at Li Qingzhu, who was still shivering under the covers.
"Sister Zhu'er, did you hear what my brother just said? Would you be willing to share this cup of tea with us, so that the three of us siblings can turn our hostility into friendship?"
Li Kechuan paused for a moment.
His eyes flickered slightly, and as Li Qingluo turned around, he whispered to coax Li Qingzhu.
“Zhu’er, Zhu’er? Listen to your brother, drink this cup of tea with her.”
Li Qingzhu, her face full of resentment and tears, was forcibly pulled out of bed.
She nestled in Li Kechuan's arms, a cup of tea shoved into her hand.
"No, waaaah... I don't... want to see... them..."
"Get out..."
What hurt Li Qingzhu the most wasn't actually that Li Qingluo and the others saw her in this state.
It was not the punishment she received that impressed Prince Yun, but rather his indifference towards her being flogged.
Moreover, before she lost consciousness, she vaguely seemed to hear some words from Prince Yun, which made her heart ache even more.
Is Your Highness truly so heartless?
Just half an hour before the incident, they were embracing passionately and intimately, but now he hates her so much!
How could Li Qingzhu not feel resentful?
I got slapped so many times again.
From childhood to adulthood, apart from the time she was kidnapped by the Lotus Sect, she had never suffered so much humiliation!
She felt that ever since Li Qingluo returned, her life had become more and more difficult!
All of this is because of her!
Thinking of this, Li Qingzhu looked up and glared at Li Qingluo with resentment.
"I... do not... wish... to... part... with... her..."
Li Kechuan, however, pulled her tightly into his arms and whispered a few words in her ear.
"Brother, I will avenge you today, as long as she drinks that cup of tea."
"Be good, Pearl, don't let her suspect anything."
"My brother has already gone to such lengths; this matter cannot afford any further mishaps..."
This is the best opportunity yet!
In the General's Mansion, not even a mosquito could fly into her Red Maple Pavilion.
Then today, he'll find a place to teach her a lesson!
Make sure she falls heavily from the clouds she's just climbed, smashing into pieces—
Li Qingzhu lowered her eyes as if she had thought for a moment before raising her head, looking aggrieved.
"Brother's advice... Since that's the case... I... will reluctantly agree..."
When Li Qingzhu spoke, her lips were unable to move, and her upper and lower teeth could only collide, making her look quite comical.
Li Qinglu suppressed a laugh and raised the cup in her hand.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, elder sister."
She was eager, as if she couldn't wait to make up with them.
It seems that all her previous interactions with them were merely attempts to gain an advantage and a higher status in their eyes.
However, when Li Qingluo came over and bumped into him, Li Kechuan and Li Qingzhu slightly dodged backward.
Is there anything Li Qingluo doesn't understand?
There's absolutely nothing wrong with the tea.
The problem is just the cup of tea in my hand.
Simply put, the teacup in your hand is the one that's poisoned.
Li Qinglu laughed at him for being too self-righteous.
My fingers loosened, and the water glass suddenly fell to the ground.
"Oops! I didn't mean to!"
Seeing the tea spilled all over the floor, she seemed quite guilty and quickly bent down to pick it up.
Then I quickly poured myself a new cup.
Although Li Kechuan's expression grew increasingly impatient, he ultimately refrained from losing his temper.
Just as Li Qingluo was about to bring the teacup to her lips, a commotion suddenly broke out outside the door.
"Who goes there—"
"How dare you!"
"Get back! Where are you...?"
"I don't care who you are!"
Several shouts came in, and then Que'er pushed the door open and said, "Miss, a lady named Liu has come to the door. She says she is the eldest young lady's aunt and came to visit you after hearing that you were injured!"
Upon hearing this, Li Qingzhu was stunned.
Liu Jinzhi!?
How did she manage to sneak into the princess's residence today?
Is it really that easy to get into the princess's residence?
Thinking of this, Li Qingzhu accidentally rolled the teacup in her hand onto the quilt.
Her mind finally realized that something was wrong.
Liu Jinzhi, Cao Rou'er, and even His Highness Prince Yun.
How could all of this be such a coincidence, happening today?
Could it be that someone is deliberately targeting her and setting a trap for her?
