Luo Lan moved inwards, shaking her head and refusing the medicine she offered.
"Don't marry someone else? Who do you want the emperor to marry? Do you want him to marry Princess Xingnan? Were you the one who tried to harm me in the hunting grounds?"
"You know too much."
Yongning frowned, then stepped forward and tightly grasped her mouth. At this moment, Ah Cai rushed out from nowhere. She stepped forward, tightly grasped Yongning's wrist, snatched the medicine bowl from her hand, and then shouted:
"You are so bold to want to harm the Queen."
As she said this, she kicked Yongning hard on the waist with her right foot. Yongning had no time to react and fell to his knees on the ground.
But she didn't intend to give up, she shouted to the people outside,
"Someone come here!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Leng Yu, Ayu, Ahong, Xiao Ningzi and the palace guards rushed in aggressively.
Seeing this scene, Yongning was a little scared. She tried to go forward and explain to Leng Yu, but was pinned to the ground by Acai.
"Your Majesty, please listen to my second sister's explanation. She came to deliver medicine to the Empress. This girl came up and knocked her to the ground without asking any questions. You must stand up for her."
When she said this, she knew she was in the wrong, so she kept her voice low.
Ah Cai directly scolded:
"Princess Yongning is such a liar! I saw you force-feed the Empress Dowager the medicine without her consent. That medicine was definitely poisonous. You wanted to kill the Empress Dowager, and now you're claiming you're innocent. You're truly eloquent and persuasive!"
"You damned girl, how dare you frame this princess? How audacious! Your Majesty, quickly take this girl away and give her a slap in the face."
Seeing the two people arguing here, Luo Lan immediately sneered contemptuously.
"Your Majesty, since the Second Princess is here to bring me medicine, and Ah Cai insists that the medicine is poisonous, why not test it in front of everyone and find out."
At this moment, Princess Yongping also hurried over. As soon as she entered the room, she accused Leng Yu:
"Your Majesty, didn't you say you were going to see Princess Xingnan? She's been waiting for you for a long time. How could you go back on your word?"
When she came in front of the crowd and saw Yongning kneeling on the ground, she knew that she had messed up.
She immediately asked in confusion:
"Yongning, what's going on? What happened?"
The moment Yongning saw her, he begged for help from her as if he was grabbing a life-saving straw.
"Big sister, you have to save me. They wrongly accused me and insisted that I poisoned the Queen's medicine. You have to help me."
Yongping frowned and looked at Leng Yu.
"Your Majesty, what's going on? Why are you framing your second sister?"
"snort!"
Leng Yu snorted coldly and pointed at the bowl of medicine on the table.
"A Cai said this bowl of medicine was poisonous, but Second Sister said she was wrongly accused. Now, we will follow the Queen's wishes and test for the poison on the spot."
Hearing this, Yongping walked quickly towards the bowl of medicine. Ayu, who was standing behind Lengyu, walked over quickly. When Lengyu was about to pick up the bowl of medicine, he took the first step to pick it up. Yongping looked at him with a sullen face.
"Master Ayu, can you let me see this bowl of medicine?"
A Yu hurriedly shook his head.
"That won't do. This is evidence. If Princess Yongping's hand shakes and she knocks the medicine bowl over, there will be no evidence."
this……
Yongping's face turned ashen at this moment. Leng Yu suddenly turned cold and shouted,
"Someone, bring me the silver needle."
Hearing this, Ah Hong came to the table, took out a silver needle from a small box, and handed it to Leng Yu.
Leng Yu took the silver needle and put it into the medicine bowl with a serious expression. Sure enough, the silver needle quickly turned black.
When everyone was sighing, Yongning suddenly shook his head vigorously.
"No, this is not my fault. Someone must be trying to frame me. Big sister, you have to take charge of this for me, big sister."
Yongping's face had turned pale at this time. Now that there were witnesses and evidence, it was almost impossible to get Yongning to distance himself from this matter.
Since I can't get rid of her relationship, I'd better clear myself first!
Thinking of this, she quickly came to Yongning, aimed at her face, and hit her with a "slap". Then she glared at her and winked at her.
"Yongning, oh Yongning, you are so foolish! How dare you frame the queen? You deserve to die."
"Sister, what are you talking about? Sister, you have to save me!"
"Shut up."
Yongning immediately scolded her, then lifted his skirt and knelt in front of Leng Yu.
"Your Majesty, although Yongning is at fault, I know there's something else going on. Please dismiss everyone here and allow the eldest sister to explain everything to you."
Leng Yu glanced at him, then waved to everyone.
"Everyone, step back!"
After receiving Leng Yu's order, everyone retreated. When only Luo Lan, Leng Yu, Yong Ning and Yong Ping were left, Yong Ping sighed and said through gritted teeth:
"Your Majesty, Yongning desperately wants to kill the Queen. In fact, she wants Princess Xingnan to marry you. This is also out of desperation. She wants to avoid war between the two countries. Please understand this matter clearly."
Seeing Yongping elevate the matter to the relationship between the two countries, Leng Yu immediately snorted coldly.
"Even though Nanping Kingdom is vast and populous, my Great Ning Kingdom is not to be trifled with. If you really want to fight, I will fight with both hands."
Yongping shook his head vigorously.
"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant. I didn't want to tell you about this, but now I have to. Princess Xingnan has been sick these past few days, but it's not a cold. She's...she's pregnant."
