The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 161 Mei Niang uses poisonous moves

Everyone was shocked. After a while, Qionghua Palace was surrounded by Yulin guards. Empress Cao ordered people to arrest the attendant who delivered the wine, but it was reported that the attendant had committed suicide by taking poison. The most important person involved was killed.

After that, the death of Concubine Wei and her unborn child became a mystery.

This Mid-Autumn Palace banquet broke up unhappy in such horror.

Until she left the Qionghua Palace, Jingshu's heart was still beating "bang bang".

Xu Wanning was so frightened that her legs went weak, and she muttered in a low voice: "In the forbidden area of ​​the palace, in full view of everyone, who is so bold as to dare to murder the emperor's heir?"

Li Xian glared at his wife and scolded her sternly: "Shut up. This is a place where you can talk nonsense. Be careful of trouble coming from your mouth."

Xu Wanning stroked her chest, sighed, and closed her mouth angrily.

As everyone in the Li family was following their attendants out of the palace, a female official rushed up and called out, "Everyone in the Duke's mansion, stay here. The Ninth Princess has come to see you."

Everyone stopped when they heard the female officer's call. After a while, they saw Qingluan rushing up with three or five female officers and maids. When she saw the Li family, she couldn't help crying.

The old lady quickly supported her granddaughter and said distressedly: "Good boy, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Qingluan glanced at his grandmother, turned to Li Ling and said, "You have seen how terrifying this place is."

Li Ling kept a calm face and did not answer, but subconsciously protected Jing Shu behind him.

The old lady patted her granddaughter's hand and replied in a low voice with tears in her eyes: "You are just a princess. It has nothing to do with it. Don't be afraid. Just pay more attention to yourself."

After Qingluan listened to the old lady's words, she turned to look at Li Ling and called pitifully softly: "Cousin--"

Li Ling replied: "Go back, it is against the rules to stay here for a long time."

Qingluan was still willful and refused to leave. She cried and said to Li Ling: "Cousin, you must think of a way to take me out of this place that eats people without spitting out their bones as soon as possible."

Li Ling's face was sullen, but he didn't know how to respond to such words. Although the Duke's mansion had the ability to protect the only flesh and blood left by his little aunt, they had no power to influence her fate. He could only decide where Qingluan would go in the future.

Try your best, but the decision-making power still lies in the hands of Emperor Ming.

Li Ling looked at the old lady: "Grandma, something like this happened in the palace tonight. It's better to send my cousin back to the palace as soon as possible. We shouldn't stay here for a long time."

The old lady persuaded her granddaughter again with gentle words, and then she was supported by Xu Wanning, who endured the sadness and continued to walk out.

However, Qingluan stood there for a long time and refused to leave. When she disappeared, she could only hear her heartbreakingly shouting at the Li family: "Grandma, cousin, you can't ignore me.

"

After hearing what her granddaughter said, the old lady burst into tears again. When she got into the carriage, she was still so sad that she couldn't help herself.

It was already midnight when we returned to Zhenguo Palace. Several people sent the old lady back to Anxi Hall before heading towards her residence.

Li Ling and Li Xian walked in front, whispering about today's events. Jing Shu and Xu Wanning followed behind, also whispering about the thrilling events in the palace tonight.

Xu Wanning said: "I think this matter was probably done by Concubine Meng. Emperor Ming had three sons in total. Apart from her Prince Jin and the crown prince of the Queen, there was only one silly son of Concubine Shu. Why are there so many princes?

Died young? I heard it was all done by Meng."

Jing Shu whispered back: "How can she be so bold? To poison a pregnant princess in public like this?"

Xu Wanning sneered and said: "There is nothing I dare not do to win favor. Concubine Wei is young and beautiful. If she gives birth to a prince, wouldn't it be a threat to her? In full view of the public, it will be difficult to find out the truth."

Jingshu thought for a moment and replied: "Maybe someone else did it and framed it for Meng."

Xu Wanning nodded: "What you said makes sense. The Holy One has always intended to appoint Prince Jin as the crown prince. It is not impossible for someone to use this matter to frame the Meng family."

Xu Wanning sighed: "Where there are many women, there are many disputes and unclear lawsuits."

What Xu Wanning said was absolutely true. At this moment, in a room in her Xiyuan, a certain woman was planning a shocking conspiracy.

Mei Niang leaned on the couch, holding a packet of medicine in her hand, stroking her bulging belly with one hand, and whispered to herself: "Poor child, it's not that I don't want you because I don't want you, but I don't want you as a mother either.

The solution is, you take a step first, and when my mother has established a firm foothold in this town, you can reincarnate again, okay?"

Xiaohong sat aside and cried: "Auntie, is there really no other way?"

Mei Niang smiled bitterly: "If there is another way, how can I let go of my child who has been pregnant for more than seven months? If I don't get rid of the Xu family, there will be no place for me in this mansion."

She narrowed her eyes slightly, gritted her teeth and said bitterly: "Ms. Xu! My child's life is in your hands. If I don't let you become my wife, I won't give up."

He handed the medicine package to Xiaohong and said: "You dissolve this medicine and sprinkle it on the mooncakes distributed early in the morning. Remember, after the baby is born, you will insist that I ate the mooncakes to cause the miscarriage."

Do you understand?"

Xiao Hong took the medicine bag tremblingly and said fearfully: "Auntie, the baby in your belly is more than seven months old. I will abort the baby this month just in case you..."

Mei Niang sighed and said: "I also know that there are risks in this matter, but the greater the risk, the greater the chance of winning. Now that the child is about to give birth, if he is beaten like this, it will naturally make the uncle feel more distressed and he will be more able to express his anger.

Mrs. Xu, if it doesn’t hurt or itch, how can we shake Mrs. Xu?”

She patted Xiaohong's hand: "Just remember what I say. After the child is born, you will insist that it was because of the moon cake. My cousin will take care of the rest."

Xiaohong was particularly worried. She looked at the medicine bag in her hand and said hesitantly: "I'm just afraid that this medicine will hurt you."

Mei Niang replied: "My cousin quietly brought this medicine in from outside. The doctor said that after taking it for an hour or two, the baby will come out of the womb. The mother's body will inevitably suffer some damage, but it will never be life-threatening.

Don't worry, my cousin hates Mrs. Xu more than I do. We are like grasshoppers on a vine, and she won't trick us."

Xiaohong then took away the medicine bag, dissolved it in warm water, and sprinkled every bit of it on the mooncakes distributed today.

Mei Niang picked up the mooncake with the flower and full moon printed on it, showing a bitter smile at the corner of her mouth, and said lightly: "If you want to spend the full moon, you have to pay the price. All good things in this world need to be fought for and snatched. If you don't fight for it, then

I can only work for people, but I can work for fish and meat."
