Chapter 266 Bird’s Nest is Poisonous
Chapter 266 Bird’s Nest is Poisonous
Haha... No matter in which world, money makes the world go round.
Xiaolian used words to guide Sun Changzai a little.
The hatred hidden deep in her heart was like a wildly growing vine, completely destroying all her rationality.
When people are angry, they can think of and do anything.
So, Concubine Sun asked the eunuch to make poison and put it in the soup she was drinking. She said she was angry and couldn't drink it, so she gave it to Xiaolian. Xiaolian drank it without hesitation for the sake of the 500 taels of silver, knowing that she would die.
After Xiaolian died, Sun Changzai became her spear to deal with Zhou Lingge.
Unfortunately, this spear is too blunt and not sharp at all!
Zhou Lingge was not hurt at all.
Qin Keqing narrowed her eyes slightly. Now she wanted to personally develop the sharpness of the spear and squeeze out every last bit of its value.
Qin Keqing slowly squatted down, opened the lunch box, and brought out a bowl of hot bird's nest. "Now that things have come to this, it's useless for you to think too much. We are good sisters, and I won't argue with you too much. Seeing you like this, I feel really bad for you."
"It's so late, you haven't eaten yet?"
"Hurry up and drink this bird's nest. I prepared it for you personally. After drinking it, have a good sleep. As long as you are not dead, there is still hope. Don't worry, I will find a way to go to His Majesty and plead for you."
It is easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to help someone in need. Sun Changzai did not expect that even though she had fallen to this point, Qin Keqing would still be so good to her.
She was so moved that she couldn't hold back her tears anymore.
"Sister Qin, you are so kind! You are the only one who treats me so well at this time... Thank you for being so tolerant of me. Don't worry, as long as I can get through this crisis this time, I will definitely repay your kindness in the future."
Qin Keqing's eyes flickered and she sneered in her heart.
Repay? No need to wait until later, she can repay herself today!
Qin Keqing glanced at the bowl of bird's nest.
"I've been saving this bird's nest for quite a while, but I'm reluctant to drink it. Drink it quickly to warm yourself up."
After she said that, she even took a handkerchief and wiped Sun Changzai's tears in a very gentle manner.
This gentle and considerate behavior completely soothed Sun Changzai's panicked heart.
She nodded quickly and took the bird's nest with tears in her eyes.
"Sister Qin, you are so kind to me."
Apart from her mother, no one in the world treats her so well.
Sun Changzai was deeply moved.
Qin Keqing wiped her tears and comforted her.
"Stop crying...it will all pass."
"We sisters entered the palace together, and now there are only a few left who can survive safely. We should unite and face the outside world together."
"Drink quickly, my sister must be starving."
Sun Changzai endured the sourness in her nose, pinched the spoon and drank the bird's nest bit by bit.
Qin Keqing looked at the gradually empty porcelain bowl, and the smile on her lips grew bigger and bigger.
There was even a sense of pleasure in my heart.
In ancient times, killing people, especially in the harem... as long as you have power... you can really do whatever you want.
Yuan Qing watched all this from the side, and her lips turned pale.
Bird's nest is poisonous.
And it is highly poisonous!
They didn't come here to care about Concubine Sun, but to send her to death!
Sun Changzai is probably dead, and she doesn't even know... who is the culprit who secretly harmed her.
Seeing that Sun Changzai had finished drinking the bird's nest, Qin Keqing handed the empty bowl to Yuan Qing.
He winked at her.
Yuan Qing took the empty bowl with trembling hands and silently retreated.
Unexpectedly, just as she stepped out of the cold palace, someone suddenly pressed a sharp weapon against her neck.
Her expression couldn't help but change.
Her eyes were filled with fear as she looked up at the person who had come.
Qiao'er's eyebrows were extremely cold, and she put her lips close to her ear and whispered word by word: "Don't make a sound. If you make even the slightest sound, I will pierce your throat with the hairpin."
Yuan Qing nodded in response quickly.
Qiao'er dragged her out of the main hall of the cold palace.
In a dilapidated side hall nearby, she pushed Yuan Qing to the ground.
She stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with the bowl of bird's nest that Concubine Qin gave Concubine Sun to drink?"
Yuan Qing knelt on the ground, not daring to hide anything. She quickly replied with a choked voice: "Bird's nest...bird's nest is poisonous."
"Noble Qin poisoned the bird's nest."
"Sun Chang can't survive her."
Qiao Er confirmed her suspicions and sneered, "Lady Qin is truly vicious. Is there someone behind all this who is instructing her?"
Yuan Qing quickly shook her head: "I don't know much about this. When Concubine Qin does things, she usually hides it from me..."
Qiao'er's eyes turned slightly, and she asked indirectly: "Did she go to see the queen?"
Yuan Qing's eyes were filled with confusion. "I don't know if she has ever looked for the Queen."
"But Concubine Qin disguised herself as a palace maid and went out several times at night."
"I don't know where she went. She always went out alone and didn't let the servants follow her."
Qiao'er did not doubt that there was any falsehood in Yuan Qing's words.
She knew that she might not be able to get anything more valuable from Yuan Qing.
She warned Yuan Qing in a low voice: "Now I will give you a chance to serve the imperial concubine. I wonder if you are willing?"
"If you are willing, perhaps you can have a chance to survive in the end. If you are not willing, then I can kill you now."
Qiao'er's eyes were full of murderous intent and extremely fierce.
Yuan Qing was naturally frightened.
She knew that Concubine Qin's affair had been exposed, and the imperial concubine had discovered Concubine Qin's conspiracy, and Concubine Qin would not be able to escape for much longer.
If she continues to be ungrateful and dares to go against the imperial concubine, then she would be truly stupid.
No matter how scheming Qin Guiren was, she was not as favored as the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine not only had the emperor's favor, but also was pregnant with the royal heir.
Any smart person knows how to choose.
Yuan Qing quickly prostrated herself: "This servant is willing to serve the Imperial Concubine."
Qiao'er did not believe Yuan Qing's loyalty, so she stuffed the poison she had prepared in advance into Yuan Qing's mouth.
"If you don't obey, you will die..."
Yuan Qing dared not have any other frivolous thoughts, "This servant will never betray the Imperial Concubine."
"Very good...pretend nothing happened and go back. If there is anything unusual with Concubine Qin, find a way to inform me immediately." Qiao'er smiled and patted Yuan Qing's cheek.
Yuan Qing nodded in response quickly.
Qiaoer waved her hand and let her leave.
Yuan Qing quickly got up from the ground. She returned to the gate of the cold palace in fear. The sound of Sun Changzai's screams of pain came from the inner hall.
She bit her lip and looked inside through the gap in the palace door.
Qin Keqing sat on the paint-peeled armchair, her face full of indifference, no longer the gentle and considerate look she had before.
Sun Changzai covered his stomach and fell to the ground in pain, with black blood oozing from the corners of his mouth.
"Ugh, it hurts. My stomach hurts."
