Jiang Meilian's slender jade fingers slowly turned two circles in the cup, and she thought she could do it without anyone noticing.
Jiang Meiyu glanced casually at the cup of tea that looked ordinary but contained a hidden secret and was poisoned.
He slowly responded, "I'm not going anywhere. I've just been sitting here for a long time and I feel a little tired. I want to stand up and stretch my muscles."
Jiang Meilian said with concern: "Lian'er, help your sister walk!"
Jiang Meiyu nodded and put her hand on Jiang Meilian's hand.
So, the two of them supported each other and walked slowly in the courtyard.
As she walked, Jiang Meiyu seemed to remember something.
Suddenly turned to look at Jiang Meilian beside him
She asked softly, "Lian'er, your mother left early, and I have been with you all these years growing up. I believe I have never treated you unfairly, let alone bullied you, right?"
Her eyes were deep and complex, as if she wanted to see some clues from Jiang Meilian's face.
Jiang Meilian's heart tightened when she heard this, but she showed an expression of being flattered.
She quickly replied, "Sister, why would you ask that? Of course I am sure! Sister has always been very caring and protective of Lian'er, and mother has also treated Lian'er very well. Lian'er will always remember this kindness in her heart and will never forget it!"
As she spoke, there was always a perfect fake smile on the corner of her mouth, and all she said were flattering and ingratiating words.
But she was filled with hatred.
"Oh, I'm a little thirsty."
Jiang Meiyu said as she walked forward with light steps, gently stroking her throat with her hand.
"Sister, let me help you sit down."
Jiang Meilian hurried forward and carefully helped Jiang Meiyu sit down on the chair.
Jiang Meiyu sat down gracefully, reached out to pick up the cup on the table, and was about to drink the water.
At this moment, Jiang Meilian, who was standing next to him, was extremely nervous.
She clenched her fists tightly, her palms full of sweat
His eyes were fixed on the cup in Jiang Meiyu's hand.
I silently prayed in my heart that Jiang Meiyu could drink the water quickly.
Jiang Meiyu just brought the cup to her lips when she suddenly stopped
Turning to look at Jiang Meilian
She smiled and said, "Lian'er, I have never given you a gift since I became queen! Today, I will give you a gift."
After saying that, Jiang Meiyu raised her voice and shouted, "Someone come!"
I heard footsteps coming
Keqing, Xuanxin and Lucao hurried out of the room.
Several burly guards followed behind him.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Meilian was so frightened that her face turned pale and she became extremely panicked.
Her body began to tremble uncontrollably, like a leaf swaying in the wind.
"Give this cup of tea to my sister." Jiang Meiyu ordered expressionlessly.
Hearing this, Jiang Meilian's legs softened and she knelt on the ground involuntarily.
She pleaded with a trembling voice, "Sister, please don't do that! That's my tea. How dare I go against my superiors? Please forgive me!"
Jiang Meiyu's eyebrows were raised, her eyes were wide open with anger.
The voice was as resounding as a bell: "Oh, you actually know the principle of insubordination! Tell me the truth, what exactly is in this cup?"
Her tone was full of authority and anger.
On the other hand, Jiang Meilian retorted with an innocent look: "How can I know what is hidden in your tea? Sister, please don't wrongly accuse a good person!"
However, the flicker in her eyes betrayed her inner uneasiness.
Jiang Meiyu was not fooled by Jiang Meilian's sophistry.
Then he asked sternly, "Humph, then tell me, why did you go to Deep Water Alley?"
Hearing this, Jiang Meilian's face changed drastically.
He stammered, "What...what, you...how could you..."
Her face was full of disbelief, as if she couldn't believe that her secret had been exposed.
At this time, Ke Qing came forward
He said coldly, "We have known everything for a long time. The Taoist priest has been arrested by Jiazi and has confessed everything!"
Ke Qing's words were like a sharp sword, piercing Jiang Meilian's heart, leaving her no room for rebuttal.
At this moment, Jiang Meilian, who had been lowering her head, suddenly raised her head.
At this moment, his eyes were filled with deep hatred, as if he wanted to devour the person in front of him.
She gnashed her teeth and said, "From childhood to adulthood, you and your hypocritical mother have always acted out the deep affection between mother and daughter in front of me. Do you really think I can't see it? You just want to show off your noble status as the legitimate daughter to me! Why do you have the right to monopolize all the beautiful things in the world? Look at my face now, which has been disfigured beyond recognition. All this is because of you! I hate you to the core!"
Hearing this, Jiang Meiyu couldn't help but sneer.
He retorted without showing any weakness: "Humph, it's obviously you who have committed so many evil things, harming both yourself and others, yet you have the audacity to put all the blame on others. People like you are truly ridiculous!"
After saying that, Jiang Meiyu turned her head slightly and gave a wink to the maid Keqing standing beside her.
Ke Qing immediately understood what his master meant.
She waved her hand gently, and two burly guards came forward.
