Chapter 25 Xiaoju is poisoned
"Miss, Miss, she swallowed it!" Caiyue said excitedly.
Yu Mengqing withdrew her foot from her body and clapped her hands gently.
"If she had the ability to not swallow it, I could have spared her life today. It's a pity that she gave up this opportunity herself!" Yu Mengqing said with regret.
"Princess, Princess, please spare my life. Please give me another chance. Please..."
"What? Give you another chance? You mean, you want to take poison again?"
Xiaoju: “…”
Caiyue: “…”
"If that's the case, then this princess is not such a stingy person. I can still afford to give you a poison pill."
After saying that, Yu Mengqing actually took out another pill from her arms and handed it to Xiaoju.
"This is another kind of poison. It tastes much sweeter than the previous one. Do you still want to try it?"
At this time, Xiaoju had already staggered to her feet. When she heard what Yu Mengqing said, she quickly shook her head.
"Princess, I don't want it anymore, I don't want it anymore..." After saying that, she hurriedly walked towards the direction of Bihuayuan...
"Miss, are you just going to let her go like this? Hasn't she taken the antidote yet?" Caiyue asked puzzledly.
Yu Mengqing curled the corners of her lips, "She probably thinks she can get rid of the poison by finding a doctor when she gets home!"
Having said that, Yu Mengqing revealed a sarcastic smile and continued, "Don't worry, if she has the ability to walk to Bihua Courtyard, I can spare her this time. After all, she is a man."
"Ah, miss, are you being too kind to her? Have you forgotten how she treated us before?"
During this period of time, the young lady seemed like a different person. Her previous cowardice disappeared and she became confident and calm.
He was also very skilled in both medicine and martial arts, which made Caiyue very envious.
But she still didn't like the young lady being so kind. She always felt that if she was too kind, she would be bullied.
Just like they were before, if the young lady had been like this from the beginning, they would definitely not have had such a hard time in these years.
"Do you look down on me, your lady, so much? Do you think my poison is so deceptive?" Yu Mengqing patted Caiyue's head and said viciously.
If she guessed correctly, Xiaoju should be in excruciating pain halfway through the journey.
This poison will not kill her, but it will make her feel that living is more terrifying than death.
Caiyue thought so too. The young lady now was completely different from the young lady before, so she had nothing to worry about.
"But, Miss, when did you start practicing martial arts? How come I didn't know? And your medical skills are amazing!"
Yu Mengqing: “…” This maid’s thinking is a little slow. She has been traveling here for several days, and she is only asking this question now.
Yu Mengqing didn't answer Caiyue's words. Instead, she said sarcastically, "Get ready. We are welcoming a distinguished guest tonight!"
"Distinguished guest? Is the prince coming over?" Caiyue asked.
Yu Mengqing: "..."
Chu Shiheng from Jianyu Pavilion sneezed for no apparent reason.
"Your Majesty, do you need to ask the princess to come and take her pulse again?"
"No problem!"
"What do you think about today's epidemic?"
"Your Highness, I suspect the enemy is poisoning our country in retaliation for the previous incident."
Chu Shiheng nodded and said, "Send someone to investigate thoroughly. This matter needs to be reported to the Emperor immediately!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Bihuayuan.
"Xiaolan, go and see what's going on over there."
For some reason, Luo Lijuan felt a little uneasy tonight, as if something was about to happen.
Originally, she had found a few people who knew martial arts to guard the Liuli Courtyard.
I planned to teach the people in Liuliyuan a lesson this time, but I didn't expect that half a day would pass and there was no news at all.
"Yes, Miss!" After saying that, Xiaolan walked towards the Liuliyuan.
Xiaolan and Xiaoju were both maids who came with Luo Lijuan as a dowry. They had been with Luo Lijuan since they were in the Shangshu Mansion, and they knew her personality very well.
Knowing that she no longer had much patience.
Bihuayuan and Liuliyuan are neither far nor close, but it takes at least a quarter of an hour to walk there.
In order to save time, Xiaolan took a shortcut.
But Xiaoju took the main road. At this time, the poison had taken effect on her and she was being tortured by Yu Mengqing's poison, causing her to be in excruciating pain.
She wanted to find a doctor, but when the poison took effect, she didn't even have the strength to stand up, let alone go back to Bihuayuan to find a doctor.
I rolled on the ground, feeling pain all over my body, but I couldn't tell where it hurt.
She even felt as if every bone in her body was being drilled by bugs.
When Xiaolan arrived at Liuliyuan, it was still quiet.
There was absolutely no sign of a fight, nor did it look like anyone was causing trouble.
At the same time, I didn’t see the men in black sent by the young lady tonight, nor did I see Xiaoju.
If she hadn't known about the young lady's actions, she would even have suspected that nothing happened in Liuliyuan tonight.
Xiaolan is not like Xiaoju. She is more cautious and sees this situation.
At that moment, she did not go in to cause trouble for the two of them, but instead guessed that she must have missed Xiaoju.
She also knew that there were only two ways to get to Liuliyuan. She took the shortcut, so Xiaoju might have taken the main road.
So she guessed that Xiaoju should have gone back now, maybe just missed her and had returned to Bihuayuan.
So I immediately quickened my pace and took the main road back to see if I could catch up with Xiaoju.
However, before they had reached halfway, Xiaolan heard a painful groan from a long distance away.
When I got closer, I found that the moaning sound came from Xiaoju's mouth.
At this time, Xiaoju was lying on the ground, looking dazed, sweating profusely, and her face was pale.
If she hadn't recognized that voice, she would have doubted whether the person in front of her was Xiaoju.
Xiaoju is an expert in martial arts, and she has never been in such a mess before.
She has never liked using her mouth. If someone disobeys her, she will just use her hands to beat him until he kowtows and begs for mercy.
This is the first time I see her in such a miserable state.
"Xiaoju, Xiaoju, what's wrong with you?" Xiaolan patted Xiaoju's cheek, trying to wake her up.
"Ah... uh..." Xiaoju was not fainted at all, she was very awake.
She wanted to faint so as to relieve the pain, but the pain never stopped. How could she faint?
Seeing Xiaolan now is like seeing a savior.
