The Empress Behind the Veil
Chapter 944
“Do not be afraid, this is a colorless and odorless powder poison, it looks white but the poison will quickly dissolve when sprinkled on this cake. The person who eats it will not respond at first, but after 7 days his senses will bleed to death. Not even the Palace Physician could investigate the details.”
Oi! I am an article!
After hearing this remark, Consort Zhen did not dare to believe it. For so long he stared at the poison powder that had indeed melted on the cake, finally he regained his senses and said: “Gosh, where did you get this thing?”
“This poison of western region is famous all over the world. It's easy to get it.”
Oi! I am an article!
“Then....”.
“Don't hesitate anymore, Consort Zhen, we will hand this thing to you now. Don't disappoint us.”
Finished speaking, Ye Wushuang directly handed the thing in Yangui's hands to Consort Zhen's hand.
Then Ye Wushuang and Yangui patted their clothes and left.
Oi! I am an article!
Concubine Zhen froze in place for so long, after seeing the two walking away, Consort Zhen just commented on the strange smile at the corner of his lips.
Ye Wushuang, it was unexpected that you were so cruel. Initially still wanting to defend your life and torture you slowly, it is unexpected that you even seek your own death path.
Alright then, let's see, later let the Emperor see your cruel true face.
On the other side…
Ye Wushuang and Yangui looked around while speaking carefully.
“Concubine Ye, sprinkled earlier is sugar powder. Do you think Consort Zhen will notice?”
“No going!”
“Why? During the try it will know.” immediately
“Then do you think he will present it to Consort Zhao?”
“Therefore I am testing it. Actually he is helping me or secretly wants to harm me, we will know soon.”
“Yes, Concubine Ye is indeed smart, not only can she protect herself, but can also make the other party have no way to retreat.”
“Yangui, later you should remember to watch Concubine Zhen secretly, lest he replace it, just in case nothing happens.”
“Just calm down, I will keep a good eye, will not let Consort Zhen act of sorts.”
“Ya, beware.”
The banquet is almost over.
Zhao Xueyan then ordered people to serve fruits as well as snacks after dinner.
Among the snacks was her favorite cake, so Zhao Xueyan asked the waiter by her side to place the cake in front of her.
Ye Wushuang lowered her gaze with a relaxed look, slowly stirring up the lotus seed soup that was in her hands.
Concubine Zhen raised her gaze and happened to be looking at Her Majesty Consort Zhao, both of them stroking strange smiles on their lips and embarking on their next plan.
Yangui stood behind Ye Wushuang all pouring tea for her, but Yangui instead deliberately spilled it a little. Ye Wushuang glanced at Yangui at a glance, but she instead signaled that Her Highness Consort Zhao already had a move.
Sure enough, Consort Zhao looked at the cake in front of him, smiled as he picked up a piece of cake then said softly and generously: “Today this cake looks good, really appetizing, I've always liked this cake, so I'll try it first.”
But when His Majesty Consort Zhao had just raised a piece and was about to open her little mouth, Red-clothed Consort Zhen rushed over to her in a panic and directly put away the snack cake in her hand, his expression was filled with guilt and he said: “Her Majesty's concubine, don't eat..”.
This action caused the atmosphere in the hall to suddenly freeze.
The few Concubines widened their eyes, they were all shocked by Consort Zhen's actions.
Only Ye Wushuang and Yangui alone clenched their lips. It turned out that Consort Zhen was really troubled.
