Chapter 449 Qin Beihuang was tricked
Jiang Ningwan nodded, raised an eyebrow and said, "No."
The three light words choked Qin Beihuang.
Jiang Ningwan took great pains to find a way to detoxify him, and he saw how much weight he lost in just a few days.
How could he believe what Jiang Ningwan said at this moment, that he didn't want the extremely cold ice silkworm anymore!
"Have you thought about it? Are you not going to save the King of Chu's life?"
Jiang Ningwan raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Who said we won't save him?"
Qin Beihuang was stunned. "Could it be that you have found another way?"
In an instant, he recalled many things. The poison that King Chu was poisoned with had no other antidote except the extremely cold ice silkworm!
Why is Jiang Ningwan so confident that he can go back on his word just like that?
At this moment, a figure appeared outside the hall. He was wearing a black robe, stained by wind and snow, and came under the moonlight.
It immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone was shocked.
Everyone in Kyoto had heard that the King of Chu was ill. He had been poisoned, a fatal poison.
Even Dr. Qiu couldn't cure it.
You should be in bed right now.
But suddenly appeared in the hall.
Qin Beihuang followed the gaze of the crowd and saw the King of Chu walking towards him unharmed. In an instant, Qin Beihuang felt as if struck by lightning.
How can it be!
"How did you save him without the Extremely Cold Ice Silkworm?" Qin Beihuang's face turned pale.
I just can't figure it out.
Jiang Ningwan raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Secret."
She raised her eyes and looked at the newcomer. "Your Highness is late. The palace banquet is almost over."
Qin Shuangchi coughed twice, his body still a little weak, "I'm here to pick you up, it's not too late."
After saying that, he looked at Qin Beihuang next to him.
"General Qin, do you have something to ask my princess?"
Jiang Ningwan quickly took over the conversation: "He is no longer General Qin. General Qin has resigned from his post and should now be called Prince Yi."
She looked at Qin Beihuang meaningfully, her eyes full of sarcasm.
At that moment, Qin Beihuang felt a chill on his back and realized that he seemed to have been fooled.
Qin Shuangchi looked at Qin Beihuang in surprise, "General Qin actually gave up his official position. It's really a pity."
"But everyone has their own aspirations, so congratulations on getting what you wanted."
After saying that, he took Jiang Ningwan away.
Qin Beihuang gritted his teeth, clenching his fists so tightly that his knuckles crackled.
What you wish for comes true!
Isn't this a mockery of him?
He resigned from his official position in order to get Jiang Ningwan!
Jiang Ningwan could still feel the sinister gaze behind her until she walked out of Taiming Palace.
But I couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
Trying to plot against her? Serves you right.
It was late at night and the air was very cold, causing Qin Shuangchi to start coughing.
Jiang Ningwan was startled and quickly gathered his cloak tightly to prevent the wind from blowing in. "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to rest at home?"
"I'm worried."
Thinking about what Jiang Ningwan told him last night about Qin Beihuang's plan, and wanting her to hold a banquet in the palace tonight to invite him to a divorce, how could he rest at home with peace of mind?
I’m afraid something unexpected will happen. What if we really get divorced?
After they left the palace and boarded the carriage, Qin Shuangchi asked, "Have both of Xie Chenyuan's extremely cold ice silkworms ended up on the black market?"
Jiang Ningwan smiled and shook her head, "No, just one."
Qin Shuangchi was a little confused when he heard this. He took out a brocade box from his arms and opened it. Inside was an extremely cold ice silkworm.
"You have one, so how come Qin Beihuang has another one?"
A sly look crossed Jiang Ningwan's lips. "This one is his."
"That's a fake one in his hand."
Hearing this, Qin Shuangchi was shocked, "Fake?"
Jiang Ningwan nodded. "He came to me to discuss business, sold me a bunch of stuff, and then asked me to lend him 100,000 taels. A total of 300,000 taels, that's not a small amount."
"So I had someone keep an eye on him. He used the three hundred thousand taels to bid for the Extremely Frost Ice Silkworm."
"The day he left the black market, I had someone replace the Arctic Ice Silkworm."
"That's just an ordinary ice silkworm in his hand. Although it's not as valuable as the extremely cold ice silkworm, it's not cheap either."
Ordinary ice silkworms naturally do not have such a strong detoxification effect.
It was also when she got the information out of Qin Beihuang that day that the extremely cold ice silkworm could detoxify that she remembered this thing.
Since Qin Beihuang wanted to coerce her, she took advantage of the situation and made Qin Beihuang resign from his official position in public.
Now Qin Beihuang has no bargaining chips in her hand, even the title deed of Prince Yi's Mansion is in her hands.
If Qin Beihuang fails to pay back the 100,000 taels he owes her within three years, the mansion will belong to her.
Qin Shuangchi raised a smile on his lips, "I see."
He held Jiang Ningwan's hand and said, "You saved my life again."
He has already been able to repay this kindness.
Jiang Ningwan leaned on his shoulder and said, "Didn't you save me the day Mo Xuzi blew himself up?"
"God has been kind to us, helping us escape danger time and time again."
Jiang Ningwan felt particularly relaxed at this moment. Recalling the day when Qin Shuangchi had the accident, she felt a surge of fear and only hoped that such a thing would never happen again.
As soon as the two of them returned to the mansion, Qin Wenli arrived.
"I was taking care of Lianyi tonight and didn't attend the palace banquet. I heard that King Chu was fine, so I rushed to see him."
When Qin Wenli saw that the King of Chu was indeed safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Seeing it with my own eyes, I'm relieved! I can now explain this to Mother!"
The King of Chu was fine, and everyone in the palace felt much more relaxed. There was finally some liveliness and joy in the atmosphere.
Several people sat in the pavilion and warmed a pot of wine.
After Jiang Ningwan gave a brief explanation, Qin Wenli sighed, "You two are truly blessed with good fortune."
"This Qin Beihuang's plot against you failed, and he even lost his official position. Be careful of him, he might do something desperate."
Qin Shuangchi's eyes flashed with coldness, and he took over the conversation: "He won't have this opportunity."
Jiang Ningwan also nodded, "Don't worry, I will be careful."
Thinking of the recent situation, she asked again, "The Queen didn't attend the palace banquet tonight. Has her illness gotten worse? How much longer can she live?"
Qin Wenli said solemnly, "He is too sick to leave Fengqi Palace, but it is only a headache. With the imperial physician's care, he won't die in a short time."
Jiang Ningwan frowned, it seemed that the emperor didn't want to kill the queen for the time being.
After all, if the queen died, the maternal clan could not be appeased.
But the queen must die!
Jiang Ningwan's eyes flashed with a cold light, "Cousin, before Qin Chengqian returns from the imperial mausoleum, the queen must die."
Qin Wenli was slightly stunned.
Feeling a bit of a headache, "I understand your concerns, but she is the queen after all. It's not easy to let her die without anyone knowing."
"Ripple is currently in the pregnancy stage, and my mother is also in charge of the six harems. I'm afraid that if I make a mistake, everything will be ruined."
It is not easy to get to this point, so he is extremely cautious.
Jiang Ningwan said meaningfully, "I have a way."
She returned to the room and took out a bottle of medicine for him.
"Just a tiny bit, added to the Queen's daily diet, and no poison will be detected."
"In less than three months, he died of natural causes."
Hearing this, Qin Wenli was startled and took the medicine bottle, "Okay."
This poison is the one the Queen is currently poisoned with, and it is also the poison the Emperor gave the Queen.
So just adding a little more would make the queen's illness worsen faster and she die faster.
Nothing was found.
Besides, the emperor won't investigate further.
At most, the dosage of the poison was not controlled properly, and the queen's body could not bear it, so she died accidentally.
As long as you do it covertly enough, you can get away with it.
