Ye Qingqing was thinking about Basha's engagement. If Basha died, the engagement would naturally be null and void. Of course, she would do her best to save Basha, but she could...
But she needs to figure out why Basha wanted to commit suicide first!
"Your Majesty, we should find out where Basha got the medicine. Maybe someone is trying to harm her," Ye Qingqing said deliberately.
"I'll go check right away!"
The Queen gritted her teeth. She was thinking even more deeply because she was in charge of Basha. If something happened to Basha, the King would blame her, and people outside would say that she had not fulfilled her responsibilities as Queen. Over the years, voices questioning her ability to be Queen had never disappeared.
The furious queen went out to interrogate the guards and maids who were taking care of Basha, leaving only Ye Qingqing and Basha in the room.
Basha woke up faster than Ye Qingqing had expected. Not long after the Queen left, Basha blinked and her body temperature gradually rose. After a while, Basha opened her eyes and saw Ye Qingqing. Her eyes reddened, and she tried to speak, but she couldn't make a sound. Her throat hurt, and she felt very uncomfortable.
"Your throat has been damaged by the medicine, so you can't speak for the time being. Take this medicine."
Ye Qingqing took out a throat-soothing pill. She didn't know where Basha got the pill from; it was very potent. If she had arrived a moment later, this silly woman would have been going to meet God.
Basha swallowed the pill. The cool liquid slid down her throat, making her sore throat feel much better, but she still couldn't make a sound.
Ye Qingqing had already given her the antidote. Since Basha had woken up, it meant that the medicine was effective and she would be fine. She just needed to detoxify slowly. However, she had a new idea.
Who gave you your medicine?
Ye Qingqing took out paper and pen, and Basha quickly wrote a few sentences. Although they were written in a very messy hand, Ye Qingqing still understood them.
"Madam Wu wanted to harm you, but she showed mercy and switched the medicine at the last minute. But you managed to get the medicine back?" Ye Qingqing asked.
Basha nodded, somewhat ashamed.
Just now, she vaguely saw a path full of flowers, with birds singing and the sun shining brightly, like paradise. No, she felt that what she saw must be paradise.
Because she saw her mother waving at her, and just as she was about to cross an arched bridge, she was pulled back by a strong force, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Ye Qingqing.
Having narrowly escaped death, Basha was filled with regret. In truth, she didn't want to die at all; life was so much better. Why couldn't she have understood that before?
Ye Qingqing muttered, "Are you out of your mind? It's better to live a wretched life than to die. If I had known you were this spineless, why would I have wasted my energy saving you? I might as well have let you die!"
Basha lowered her head in shame and wrote on the paper: "The man my father betrothed me to is a disgusting pervert who has already killed two wives. I will die if I marry him, so I..."
The series of blows were too much for Basha, whose mental strength was not strong to bear. In the past few days, she became more and more obsessed with her thoughts and felt that life was not worth living. So she took medication and tried to commit suicide.
Bazaar wrote, "I will never be so stupid again. Even if I marry a pervert, I will try my best to live."
She had come to terms with it. There were countless people in this world more miserable than her. She wasn't the worst off. Besides, she had warm-hearted friends. If she died, she would be letting down her friends and her uncle who had always cared for her.
Ye Qingqing leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I have a way to prevent you from marrying a pervert. Just listen to me..."
