Chu Junyi perceived Shen Ninghua's sight. He curled his lips at her when nobody was looking and tapped the folding fan in his palm.
Shen Ninghua held back her sight. Instead of wondering why Chu Junyi would suddenly help her, she thought quickly trying to figure out the first lady's plan.
This batch of wine was specially brewed by her as gifts, and nothing was added to it.
But just when the first lady and Shen Linghan took out the wine, it suddenly became poisonous. And a maid's death happened to be the evidence. Apart from that maid, no one was poisoned. How calculating this step-by-step plan was! Besides, Shen Linghan had said those words to make time for the first lady to expose the poisoned wine.
Murdering the emperor's son was a capital crime. Even he had doubts in his heart, Shen Dong would follow his personality to make her the scapegoat and take all the blame. After all, she had been away from home for more than half a year
Shen Linghan's eyes were full of satisfaction and happiness. She had to try very hard not to curl her lips too obviously. On the first day when Shen Ninghua came back, she heard comments from the servants in the mansion. The servants said that Shen Ninghua was more beautiful and dignified than her, and that the title of the first beauty in the capital should be awarded to Shen Ninghua... Hum, without life, how could you compete with me again!Shen Dong frowned, deep wrinkles appearing in the center of his brows, "Open it!"Crack! The heavy lid of the box was lifted abruptly.Shen Linghan clenched her fist and her heart pounded. Shen Ninghua, today you must die!"Ah!"A suppressed scream sounded, and Shen Linghan came back to consciousness. She looked at Shen Dong subconsciously, but found that he also had a surprised face."What... what is this?"In the huge box, there was not the body of Nurs
Fanning himself, Chu Junyi walked out of the yard along with the others. He could not help laughing in his heart. Today's drama was really wonderful. He wondered if there would be anything more wonderful. Before he finished thinking over an idea, he heard a scream, followed by a plop."Miss!"Shen Linghan, who was walking by the pond, slipped and fell into it.Madam Zhao was shocked and suddenly realized that the person in the pond was her dear daughter. She hurriedly shouted, "Quickly, quickly go down into the pond to save her!" After those words, she abruptly looked with her sword-like eyes at Shen Ninghua, as if she wanted to bite a piece of flesh off Shen Ninghua.Shen Dong was also shocked. He raised his eyes and glanced at Shen Ninghua, who also looked surprised. He frowned and looked around at the guards. Surely, he couldn't let these guards jump into the pond to get Shen Linghan out. Otherwise, her reputation would be ruine
At this time, Liang Yu didn't know what expression to carry on his face. He shouted "Mother" and threw himself at Nurse Zhou. When his fingers touched her hands, he felt her hands were cold and then he was relieved. Thank God she was dead. So long as she was dead, it would be easy for them to make up the story. If she were not dead, then they would have big trouble.In the middle of the chaos, a servant came to report to Chu Junyi that Doctor Chen had arrived.Chu Junyi's eyes flashed. "Ask Doctor Chen to come here. He could treat the Second Miss Shen as well."Hearing this, Shen Ninghua turned her head and had an idea.Chen Yun came over, and Shen Dong hurriedly welcomed him. "Doctor Chen, my daughter just fell into the water. Please have a look at her. Thank you."Chen Yun nodded and agreed. He expressed his apology and without courtesying the Fifth Prince, he went straight to Shen Linghan.Madam Zhao hu
After Chu Junyi made the request, doctor Chen immediately agreed. He took out silver needles from the medicine box carried by the servant behind him and stuck them in Nurse Zhou’s several acupoints.In no time, Nurse Zhou opened her eyes all of a sudden.Madam Zhao's heart shivered and her mind raced rapidly. She could never, ever let Nurse Zhou tell the truth! She coldly glanced at Liang Yu, who was standing beside her dumbfounded. Cursing "Useless dolt!" in her heart, she had no choice but to say something as a hint to Liang Yu. "Thank God. Liang Yu, what are you in a daze? Didn’t you see your mother has woken up? Have a good look at her and see if she’s well."Liang Yu saw the killing intent in Madam Zhao’s eyes and suddenly realized what to do next. He climbed forward and howled loudly. "Mother, you have finally woken up. Who is so vicious to throw you into the pond? She definitely wanted to kill you. Don't worry. The master and madam will
As soon she finished the words, Shen Ninghua raised the cup and drank the wine!"You... you're committing suicide..." Doctor Qi exclaimed.Shen Ninghua wiped her lips and said in a sad voice, "My self-brewed poisonless wine is framed to be poisonous. My filial piety is trampled on the ground. If I can't prove my innocence, I’d rather be poisoned to death."Madam Su stepped forward and pulled Shen Ninghua. With an angry face, she asked, "Doctor Qi, now you watch carefully. Is there poison in the wine?"Doctor Qi was dumbfounded for a while. Shen Ninghua drank the wine and didn’t die. Was there a better proof that the wine was not poisoned?Madam Su then said to Shen Ninghua, "You silly girl, I know you want to prove that the wine is not poisonous, but you don't have to drink it yourself.Aren’t there any servants in Shen family? Why would the first daughter be forced to test the poison to prove her innocence? You
Shen Ninghua's eyebrows moved slightly. She looked down at Wan Xiang whose eyes were closed with blood running down from the corner of her lips. The girl had killed herself by biting her tongue.Nurse Qin's words were clearly warning Wan Xiang. The first lady must have her family under control, leaving her no other choice but to commit suicide to protect her family. This girl was actually both affectionate and faithful. It was a pity that she died.The death of Wan Xiang made it impossible to either verify or refute Nurse Qin’s words. This meant that whatever the first lady said would be undisputed. What an awesome plan!"This girl took things too hard. If she wanted to marry Liang Yu, she could simply beg my mother. My mother has always been the most kind-hearted person. How could she say no? She died for nothing."Madam Su sneered. She went up, held Shen Ninghua by the hand and retreated by two steps. "You are just too kind-heart
Madam Zhao's face was livid. Her hand wrung the hemlines of her dress, and the gold hairpin on her head was shaking violently, which showed that she was not calm at this time.Shen Linghan hurriedly ran to Madam Zhao and knelt down next to her arm again. Her emerald-like eyes were full of tears. "Father, mother has always been generous to others. This time, she was angry and ignored my sister because she cared too much about you. If it wasn't because she wanted to maintain her image in your heart, she would not have listened to the slaves and lost control of her temper. I’m willing apologize to sister on behalf of mother. Please don't be angry anymore. It’s not good for your health."Shen Dong's expression changed slightly and he finally stepped forward to help Shen Linghan up. "You have always been the most kind-hearted and timid. Well, this time, your mother did something wrong. If Ninghua is willing to forgive her, everything will be OK."Sh
As soon as Bi Zhu was back to Tranquility Courtyard, Hong Ling quickly stepped up and asked, "How was it? How was it? Was the first lady pissed off?"Bai Ruo frowned and coughed. "Hong Ling, where are your manners?" If this girl continued to act recklessly like this, who knew what kind of trouble she would cause for the miss.Hong Ling shuddered and hurriedly retreated. With her head askew, she looked at Shen Ninghua's face. Seeing that Shen Ninghua was smiling at her, she became more embarrassed. She quickly went up to massage Shen Ninghua’s shoulder and stuck her tongue stealthily. "Miss, I was wrong."Shen Ninghua smiled and said, "No more massaging. I have rashes on my shoulders and I can't stand your massaging.""Ah, Miss, I forgot. Are you alright?" Hong Ling flushed with anxiety."Nothing." Shen Ninghua shook her head. Of the four maids, Hong Ling was the liveliest and did not like to be constrained by rules. He
