"Brother, you don't have to say it. She's lying to you." Shi Shuling said firmly, "She pretended to be me because she likes Qi Luan and is greedy for power. She told you this because she's afraid you'd kill her."
Shi Yu shook his head: "She is not."
"Why are you so sure?" Shi Shuling felt some anger rising in his heart. It was not directed at his brother, but at Shi Wuqing who had deceived his brother!
"Because the third prince of Yu State, Yu Yongning, showed up and saved her." Shi Yu told everything that happened that night, especially emphasizing that even though Shi Wuqing was badly injured by him, he was still very worried about him and begged Yu Yongning not to hurt him.
"Although I don't know why you, Lingling, are hostile to Qingqing, but..." The man lowered his head and glanced at his hands: "Yu Yongning cares deeply about Qingqing. If Qingqing had asked Yu Yongning to kill me, Yu Yongning would not have refused. In fact, Qingqing didn't even need to say it explicitly. As long as she didn't stop him, Yu Yongning would not let me go."
"I'm sorry Qingqing."
"Brother, don't be silly. Even if she protects you, it's for another reason!"
Shi Wuqing personally admitted what he had done!
That day, she was behind the screen and heard it clearly!
"I don't think so... Lingling, I don't think so." Shi Yu and Shi Shuling looked at each other, and he pointed at his eyes:
"I've seen the look in her eyes."
Shi Shuling sneered, and countless rebuttals flashed through her mind, but at the same time, she couldn't help but think of the girl's eyes.
The first time they met again, in Feiyan Pavilion, the girl did not recognize her. The glance she gave her casually was pure, clear, and without any dust.
At that time, she thought the other party was pretending.
The second time at the banquet, after being despised by everyone for pretending to be sick, the girl sat quietly at her seat. When she saw the people who claimed to be from the Valley of Miracle Doctors, they looked at her like everyone else, with a calm expression. There was no hostility towards her for stealing the limelight, nor was there any embarrassment of being exposed for pretending to be sick.
Now, Shi Shuling already knew that she was not pretending to be sick, but was suffering from the effects of the poison, but precisely because of this... that look in her eyes was wrong.
How can a person who is truly in pain, yet has not been diagnosed and is ridiculed by everyone, be so calm?
It was as if... she already knew she was poisoned and calmly accepted the result that there was no diagnosis or treatment.
When Shi Shuling thought of this, he was stunned. Why did he think so?
How could it be possible? If Shi Wuqing knew that he was poisoned, why didn't he bring it up and take the opportunity to have the imperial physician investigate thoroughly?
Instead, Qi Luan didn't tell the other party and asked me to take her pulse, and was framed by her...
— Did Shi Wuqing spill the tea to prevent her from taking his pulse?! Detecting toxins in his system?!
In a flash, a terrifying thought popped up!
Shi Shuling's heart skipped a beat!
This guess is too scary! If it is true, why?!
Did she not want to be treated, or did she not want... the person who poisoned her, Lian Yi, to be found out?!
Is she protecting the jumpsuit?
Shi Shuling's heart was beating like thunder. No, he must have been overthinking it!
——"No! A'Luan, don't, don't kill her!"
—Too anxious to make a fake sound.
——That day, Qi Luan wanted to kill her, but Shi Wuqing stopped Qi Luan!
Shi Shuling's face suddenly turned pale, and his brain felt like a dynamite had exploded, with only a roar and he couldn't think.
She hasn't figured everything out yet, but just the things she thought of are enough to show that there is something hidden!
If, if the truth is really as my brother said...
Then... then what did I do?
Shi Shuling suddenly ran outside!
【I was so anxious, I finally realized something was wrong! 】
I'm already numb (smile) It doesn't matter, it's just a knife (smile)
It's too late.
[I'm not pouring cold water on you, but don't hold out hope. He's already dead and can't die any more.]
[It hurts so much!! I want to fly around the world now!]
[Now I can only see Qingqing for the last time...]
"No? What's wrong with you all? Cheer up! Think about the author's vote! Think about the dramatic twists in novels and movies! Qingqing will be fine!"
[I agree. Maybe Qi Luan's men will arrive and rescue Qingqing!]
[I don’t care, my wife will never die (very loud) (crying while shouting)]
…
In the original novel, there is no part where the heroine rushes over, so the next part does not describe the heroine's side, but Qi Luan stabbing the emperor to death with a sword, ending the power transfer.
But that was not what Shi Wuqing should care about, and she couldn't care about it - at this moment, both of her eyeballs were poked out, and she really couldn't see.
Shi Wuqing felt like crying but had no tears. This time, she really couldn't see where Xiaoyi was hitting her.
"System, please report it." Shi Wuqing asked for help.
Wherever she was hit, she would tremble there to show her respect.
"..." The system took a quick look and said emotionlessly, "She's kicking you in the stomach."
“…” The fog cleared.
My stomach...it's a little bit shaky.
Forget it, just give up. The focus is not on me now anyway.
The effect of the medicine had worn off, Shi Wuqing turned over and lay down directly. Ignoring her miserable condition and peaceful posture, someone who didn't know her would think she was sleeping!
Shi Wuqing suddenly moved, startling Xiaoyi who was standing next to her.
After realizing what was happening, she sneered, "Still trying to make a last-ditch effort? Shi Wuqing, you..."
"Ahem." The girl on the ground cleared her throat: "Don't say anything yet, listen to me."
