Chapter 43 It was the young lady who forced us to do this!
Yun Qingqing looked at the prince with an inexplicably dark face:
"What do you want that for? You can't use it."
Xiao Changheng frowned tightly, said nothing, and did not let go of her wrist.
Yun Qingqing: “…”
The visual impact of this man staring at people like this after his eyes recovered was really too strong.
She rubbed her eyebrows:
"Okay, if you really want one, I have a lucky charm here. Here it is."
He took out a talisman and handed it over: "One hundred taels."
Xiao Changheng: ...
"Forget it, no more."
He shook off Yun Qingqing's hand and gestured to Nan Zheng to push him away.
The talisman of Mr. Ye is worth 50,000 taels, but his is only worth 100 taels?
"...One hundred taels is too much?" Yun Qingqing said speechlessly, "Alright, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give you one, right?"
“No need!”
Nan Zheng clearly heard the sound of his prince grinding his teeth and was terrified.
Princess, please shut up!
…
When they arrived outside the emperor's bedroom, Xiao Changheng pulled out a piece of white gauze to cover his eyes.
Yun Qingqing knew that he didn't want others to know that his eyes had healed, so she said nothing and followed him in.
Before he even reached the palace gate, the emperor's chief eunuch, Li Liangui, came over and said:
"Your Highness, the Regent Prince, there's urgent military intelligence from the northwest. The Emperor requests that you go to the study to discuss matters. Your Highness, please follow me to the Queen's residence to wait... What's wrong with your Highness's eyes?"
"I've had some minor problems lately, but they've been treated and they're nothing serious." Xiao Changheng said in a light tone.
The two went their separate ways, and Yun Qingqing followed Li Liangui to another hall.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw the queen sitting in the main seat. The woman sitting below her had her face covered with a veil, but Yun Qingqing knew at a glance that it must be Yun Bailian.
She curled her lips imperceptibly.
There were several women sitting nearby. Yun Qingqing took a quick look and recognized that they were the wives of the second prince, Prince Duan, and the fourth prince, Prince Qi, and the other one was the eldest princess, Xiao Yuejun.
"Mother! You must take charge of this for me!" Yun Bailian said immediately upon seeing her appear. "It was the Regent Princess who poisoned my food, which is why my face looks like this!"
The Queen looked at Yun Qingqing sternly:
"Princess Regent, what explanation do you have for this matter?"
Yun Qingqing looked puzzled:
"What does the Queen want me to explain? I haven't even seen what Yun Bailian's face looks like, so how do you know she's been poisoned? If you want an explanation, shouldn't you at least let everyone see what's happening to her face?"
When she said this, the eldest princess and the two princes' wives looked at Yun Bailian with eyes full of curiosity.
They had just arrived and had only heard the Crown Princess accusing the Regent Princess of poisoning her, but they had never seen her face. They had long wanted to see what her face looked like.
Yun Bailian was so angry that her fingers turned white. Didn't this make her expose her face in front of everyone? This damn Yun Qingqing clearly did it on purpose!
The Queen paused, frowned and said:
"I have personally checked and found that Bai Lian's face is indeed seriously poisoned. Do you doubt my words?"
Yun Qingqing was surprised:
"I can't see what her face looks like, so what's the point of explaining this to me? And if I say that all the money in my purse is lost and that Yun Bailian stole it, but I'm hiding it tightly from anyone, can I still ask Yun Bailian to compensate me?"
Queen: “…”
Although I don't want to admit it, I am speechless.
"Mother, I think what the Regent Princess said makes sense. Since the Crown Princess has accused her of poisoning her face, you can't convict her without even letting anyone take a look." The eldest princess Xiao Yuejun said.
Princess Duan and Princess Qi also echoed:
"Yes, mother, I also think what the Regent Princess said is correct."
"Princess, please let everyone see your face so that they can make a judgment."
The Queen could only nod and say:
"Bai Lian, that's indeed the truth. Then you should let them see it, and then I can make the decision for you."
Yun Bailian gritted her teeth and clenched her palms tightly, not moving.
Yun Qingqing suddenly sneered:
"Could it be that you're completely fine and are deliberately teasing me? If the Empress summoned me here just for this matter, then since Yun Bailian doesn't want to show her face, there's no need for me to play along with her. I'm leaving now!"
With that she turned and was about to leave.
"Stop!" Yun Bailian was anxious, and she pulled back her veil and shouted angrily, "Now you all see clearly? This is the evidence that Yun Qingqing poisoned me! Queen, how can she be worthy of being a princess if she is so vicious! Please help me!"
Xiao Yuejun and the other two princesses finally saw her face clearly and shuddered.
I saw that the face was covered with pustules and pits, even worse than Yun Qingqing's disfigured face. If you saw it at night, it would be scary enough to kill you!
The other half of my life was killed by disgust.
Several people immediately covered their faces and turned their heads away, unable to bear to watch any further.
Even the Queen calmly turned her gaze away, coughed lightly, and said:
"Okay, now everyone can see clearly, so let's put on the veil first."
Yun Qingqing looked at Yun Bailian's twisted, ghostly face, and a lot of the resentment towards the original owner that had been pent up in her heart dissipated.
Ever since her soul entered this body, the fit between her spirit and body has always been unstable, and with every decrease in the original owner's resentment, her soul becomes more stable.
However, although she has vented a lot of anger for the original owner recently and the resentment has decreased, it is still far from being completely purified.
In order for the original owner to truly transcend, the evil that the prince had done must be retaliated for, and the real murderer who killed the original owner must be found and revenged for her!
"Princess Regent, you've seen Bai Lian's face. She said it was because of the poison you gave her. What do you have to say?"
Before Yun Qingqing could speak, Yun Bailian rushed to say:
"Don't try to deny it! The servants in your courtyard have already admitted it. During the last few days I was waiting for my wedding at the Yun Mansion, you sent them to the kitchen every day to poison my tonic soup. That's why I'm in this state now!"
"Oh?" Yun Qingqing glanced at her calmly, "Is there a witness? From what you said, there's more than one person. Do they dare to come out and confront us face to face?"
"Why not?" Yun Bailian was waiting for her to say this, and immediately two people came up.
Yun Qingqing took one look and sneered. These two people were indeed the servants in her yard. She had long seen from their faces that they were villains who would sell out their consciences for petty profits.
The reason why he didn't send him away directly was that he didn't want to let him out to harm others, and secondly, he knew that someone had extended his hand to his own yard.
She was just waiting for this bombshell to happen, and Yun Bailian really lived up to her expectations.
"How did you manage to do that? Tell the truth in front of the Empress. If you dare to tell a lie, you'll be killed!"
Yun Bailian said coldly.
The two men immediately kowtowed and confessed their guilt, shouting:
"Second Miss, calm down! We have no other choice! It was the eldest Miss who forced us to drug you, and she said that if we didn't obey, she would have plenty of ways to kill our entire family! How dare we disobey!"
