After the two royal physicians bowed in greeting, they proceeded to rigorously and repeatedly examine the two jasper begonia blossoms inside Queen Zhao’s case for poison.
The result was naturally something Yi’an found difficult to accept!
Not only were these blossoms not poisoned, the two royal physicians even lavished profuse praise on the unsurpassed efficacy of these begonia blossoms. They were even curious as to which medicine master had treated them. This medicine was only beneficial to humans and would not cause any harm to them at all.
Yi’an was stupefied at what she heard. She only felt that these royal physicians had no choice but to say such bootlicking words due to the crown prince consort’s status.
“Eat them!” The young crown prince consort barked gruffly at Yi’an.
Yet who knew that Queen Zhao would hastily stuff the case into her inner world and calmly wave her hand while saying, “How could we have her eat such good flower accessories? It would be better to pick two other flowers for her to eat.”
Xiao Mi: …
Yi’an turned to look at Queen Zhao in disbelief, simply unable to believe her ears.
Just now, Queen Zhao’s words meant that? That… even Queen Zhao was not standing on her side?
But she was merely worrying for Her Majesty the Queen’s health, afraid that she would be tricked by the crown prince consort!
“You don’t mean what you say! Big fat liar!” She clearly said that she would eat flowers, yet she’s not eating them now? She was lying to Qiaoqiao!
The young crown prince consort stood up in a huff and did not care to say anything as she pattered out of the gazebo with her short legs.
Queen Zhao suddenly had the impression that she had bullied a little kid. What the heck was with that?
Meanwhile, Xiao Mi twitched her mouth before standing up with a light cough. “Apologies, Your Majesty the Queen. I will take my leave first along with the crown prince consort.”
Just as the young crown prince consort stepped out of the gazebo, she suddenly turned around and stared at Commandery Princess Yi’an with an incisive gaze. “You were the one who placed the Sumeru seed inside Grandmother’s pot of jasper begonia, right.”
Commandery Princess Yi’an’s entire body gave a jolt, and she automatically voiced with a shake of her head, “What, what Sumeru seed. I-I don’t know what you are talking about.”
However, the young crown prince consort merely swept a cold glance at her. Yi’an’s guilty expression had already explained everything, so she did not need to keep interrogating.
After all, the jasper begonia was such a rare variety that the queen dowager was the only one who had a pot of them in the entire Mo Kingdom capital.
It was normal for Yi’an to mistake these blossoms for ones that had been snipped from the queen dowager’s abandoned pot of jasper begonia.
Yet only the person who tampered with Grandmother’s pot of jasper begonia would know that it was poisoned.
Unfortunately, Yi’an did not know that there was a large sea of jasper begonia blossoms inside the young crown prince consort’s paradise right now.
Xiao Mi twitched her mouth as she caught up to Qiao Mu, who had run off in anger. She then placated with a smile, “Alright, alright, Qiaoqiao, rest assured. Since she isn’t going to eat flowers today, tomorrow I’ll make her eat ten liters of grass as a tonic!”
Qiao Mu’s eyes brightened when she heard this. “You have to dig up the stinkiest grass for her to eat.”
“Fine! I’ll have my subordinates specially seek out the grass growing next to the manure pit!”
Qiao Mu was satisfied with this plan. This was the consequence of tricking Qiaoqiao!
“Ah!” Not long after they left, they heard Commandery Princess Yi’an’s scream coming from the mountain gazebo.
Qiao Mu’s heart jolted, and when she turned around, she saw two gigantic nightcaw birds swooping down on the island in the middle of the lake in broad daylight. At this time, they were grabbing at the people inside the mountain gazebo.
“The queen.” Without even thinking, Qiao Mu turned around to run toward the mountain gazebo.
While following behind closely, Xiao Mi nervously took out a sword. However, they had not run far when she lost her grip on the sword and dropped it to the ground.
