"Thank you, sir."

Wei Ya took the cake with a smile.

Ever since Wei Ya came to Gu Yunru, the emperor's eyes have been on her. When Gu Yunru met the emperor's eyes, the emperor's face inevitably turned red. It seemed that the emperor was really moved this time.

This night was destined to be another extraordinary night. The emperor favored Wei Ya and named her a noble lady, instantly making her equal to Gu Junyao. However, after three days, Gu Junyao was obviously neglected and waited for the emperor to come every day, but he never came.

"Miss, don't wait any longer. The Emperor went to that vixen again today."

Lan'er watched as it was getting dark and walked in with cakes. The young lady was so sad that she didn't eat her meal today and her face looked thinner. Lan'er felt very distressed.

"Lan'er, at this rate, when can I become the queen? Concubine Shu is already dead, but why do I still have so many opponents? Why can't I kill all these women?"

Gu Junyao yelled at her hysterically. She had been in the harem for more than half a year, but she had not yet caught the emperor's eye. There were more and more young women around her. If she wanted to become the queen, she had to get the support of the empress dowager. However, the empress dowager turned a blind eye to her and now she had set her eyes on the princess.

"Miss, please don't get angry. It's not worth it to hurt your body for that vixen."

Lan'er was frightened by her appearance, her face turned pale, and she walked forward and supported her back.

"It's not worth it. What is not worth it and what is worth it?"

Gu Junyao took a deep breath, and suddenly a vicious idea popped up in her mind. She looked at Lan'er in front of her and said, "Call Ah Chou over here."

"Miss...you won't want it again." Lan'er knew that once she summoned Ah Chou, someone would die. She had killed so many women in the harem over the years. Although it had not been made public, one day the investigation would lead to their deaths.

"Why are you taking so long when I told you to go?!"

"yes……"

Lan'er held her breath and had to leave the house with her head down.

Ah Chou came up to Gu Junyao and was about to salute when she helped him up.

"A Chou, you and I are from the same lineage, so you don't need to bow to me. And this time I called you over to help me deal with another person."

"My queen ordered."

"Viya."

Gu Junyao narrowed her beautiful eyes fiercely.

The next morning, Gu Yunru was summoned to the palace by the Queen Mother.

"Yun Ru, how did you make your cake?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Gu Yunru arrived, the Queen Mother asked about the cake. Gu Yunru smiled flattered and said, "Queen Mother, are you a little greedy, so you want Yunru to make another cake?"

"It's not me who is greedy, but Wei Ya who is greedy."

The Queen Mother smiled, and a woman in green gauze came out from behind the beaded curtain with a sweet smile on her face.

"It's me, Princess Sister. You wouldn't forget me, would you?" Wei Ya looked innocent, romantic and charming as a girl of her age.

"Yunru, Weiya has already told me about what happened last time. She didn't know that the cake was your birthday gift to me, so ignorance is not a crime. You should stop blaming her." The Queen Mother wanted to see the two of them become a pair of good sisters. Weiya hadn't made any friends in the palace, and this was the first time she had a woman she liked so much.

"How dare I? I don't mean to blame the princess. Oh, no, you should call her your Excellency now." Gu Yunru quickly changed her words. This Wei Ya won the favor of the emperor as soon as she appeared.

I heard that he stays in her palace every night, and Wei Ya's eyes have a hint of charm. Although she is a virgin, she is still so innocent and naughty, which makes people feel precious.

"I'm glad you don't blame me. Then, sister Princess, can you make it again for Wei Ya? Wei Ya has been craving it for many days."

Wei Ya's pitiful little eyes are so adorable. No wonder the Queen Mother personally summoned Gu Yunru to the palace for her and nodded in agreement reluctantly.

The scene changed, and Gu Yunru and Qingxing came from the imperial kitchen, made a whole mousse cake, placed it in front of her, and smiled at her, "I have just told the steps to your people in the palace. If you are craving for it again in the future, you can ask them to make it for you."

"Sister Princess, you are so kind!"

Wei Ya couldn't wait to take the spoon and scoop a spoonful of cake into her mouth.

Aunt Hua gave a piece of cake to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was delighted and was about to take a bite, but she saw the cake in Wei Ya's hand suddenly fall to the ground. She seemed to be choked by something and was pinching her neck, with blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.

“Ah!”

Qing Xing looked at her gradually dilating pupils and screamed in fear. Wei Ya fell to the ground after spitting out blood. Gu Yunru had no idea what was going on and quickly came to her side to take her pulse.

The Queen Mother stared at the cake in her hands, her hands shaking. She threw the cake aside and called the imperial physician, but it was too late when he arrived.

"Your Majesty, there is a lot of arsenic and frost in this cake."

The imperial physician took the silver needle and tried it, but he didn't expect that it had already turned black. The toxicity of arsenic and frost is well known, and the amount of arsenic and frost in the cake is enough to be fatal.

"How could this happen?" The empress dowager's frosty white lips trembled slightly. Wei Ya, lying on the ground, had no signs of life. Gu Yunru's pupils widened, and her face was also full of disbelief. This cake was made by her and Qingxing together, and there was no chance for outsiders to take over.

"Empress Dowager... I... I really don't know why it turned out like this." Gu Yunru explained to her anxiously, but when the Empress Dowager saw the scene in front of her, she was so shocked that she was speechless.

"Princess Zhao, on the day of the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, only you and the princess had an argument, so whether this incident was caused by the princess remains to be discussed."

Aunt Hua looked at the horrified scene and gave her conclusion. Gu Yunru immediately shook her head and explained, "Although I had a quarrel with Wei Ya that day, I didn't make a cake to poison her again, and in front of the Queen Mother...

How could I do such a thing? Someone must have put arsenic and frost in my cake."

The imperial physician wiped the sweat from his forehead and had the body carried out of the Queen Mother's palace. The Queen Mother was frightened. Nanny Hua looked at the Queen Mother's eyes, walked up to Gu Yunru and said, "Princess, please stay in the palace for a while.

Don't worry, the Queen Mother will definitely give you justice, but it's best for you not to go anywhere these days."

"Your Highness, this must not have been done by the princess. Qingxing and the princess have always been together, and you, Your Highness, know best what kind of person the princess is."
