Chapter 309 Xiyue's Counterattack; Ping Changzai Yuxi
Xianfu Palace
Gao Xiyue teased Jingshu.
Wei Yingning stepped forward and said, "My Lord, the Empress has sent word that the maid who tried to harm the princess that night was arranged by Concubine Ping."
"Is the information accurate?"
Wei Yingning nodded. "Yes, it was her personal maid Chunxiu who reported it to the Empress, saying she didn't want to see any more princes and princesses get hurt."
Gao Xiyue snorted coldly: "She is quite sensible."
"Then how are we going to deal with this Concubine Ping? She's a favorite of the Emperor."
Gao Xiyue: "So what if she's a famous person? Can her eight ounces of bones be compared to my Jing Shu?"
"If she dares to hurt my family, I will never let her go."
"Go and quietly bring Chunxiu here. I will give him a taste of his own medicine."
In the Imperial Household Department, Chunxiu was waiting to receive her share of the allowance.
As soon as he came out, he was pulled over by Wei Yingning who was hiding in the dark.
"Shh, don't talk." Wei Yingning warned her.
Chunxiu nodded.
The two returned to Xianfu Palace through the back door.
Chunxiu knelt on the ground, and Gao Xiyue asked her, "Do you know why I called you here?"
Chunxiu shook her head: "I don't know."
"I know everything your master has done. Fortunately, you still have a conscience and report her to the Empress."
Chunxiu shuddered: "I...I just hope Ping Chang is around and doesn't hurt the children. I know I was wrong."
"Wrong? I'm not saying you're wrong. On the contrary, I want to reward you, but you have to do something for me."
Chunxiu took a deep breath and said, "I will wait for the orders of Concubine Hui."
"You are familiar with this cinnabar, right? I want you to give it to Ping Changzai."
Chunxiu panicked: "I was really just following Ping Changzai's orders. I had no choice. I..."
"That's enough." Gao Xiyue shouted sternly, "I just want you to do a little thing. Look how scared you are. You can do it if she asks you to, but you can't do it if I ask you to?"
Chunxiu fell to the ground and begged for mercy, but finally agreed.
Gao Xiyue signaled Wei Yingning with her eyes to help her up and send her out.
Mo Xin: "Master, I'm afraid she might do something bad."
"It doesn't matter. It would be better if she knew. Who dared to harm my mother and Jingshu?"
"What if she reports this to the Emperor?"
Gao Xiyue sneered, "That's even better. Will the Emperor believe her? She thinks she's just a dish."
Lunch was prepared and delivered by the imperial kitchen. After Chunxiu tested it for poison, Ping Changzai ate it with peace of mind.
Chunxiu didn't dare to take a large dose at once, and only took a very small dose each time.
Within a few days, Pingchang had many blisters on her mouth.
She looked in the mirror and said, "What's going on? It's obvious that she has been poisoned by cinnabar, Chunxiu, Chunxiu..." Before she could call out twice, Ping Changzai fainted.
Zhu Quan was the only one in the Imperial Hospital now. Chunxiu begged him for a long time before he agreed to go and take a look first.
This pulse diagnosis was nothing special, it was actually a happy pulse.
But she was poisoned by cinnabar, and I'm afraid the child will be born with deformities.
After hearing the news, Hongli thought about it for a long time.
"Li Yu, go tell Zhu Quan to prepare an abortion for Ping Changzai."
Li Yu bowed his head: "Yes, I will go right away."
Ping Chang was extremely happy when she woke up and knew she was pregnant. She also looked forward to the beautiful scene of the baby being born nine months later.
Until Li Yu brought the maids over.
