Chapter 701 The Tragic Concubine 8
Chengpin dodged Yuanzhu's hand and said with dissatisfaction, "What's wrong with you, servant? Are you afraid that I will harm my sister? Isn't it different to serve you since childhood? I have a close relationship with my sister since childhood. Can you tell me if I will harm my sister?"
Chengpin had known the original owner since she was a child, so she naturally knew that Yuanzhu was not a servant who had served the original owner since she was a child, but had served the original owner before entering the palace.
"Sister," Chengpin looked at Jiang Chunxi and said, "I don't know how my aunt found such a servant for you. The master didn't say anything. She, a servant, took the initiative to make decisions for the master. In my opinion, sister is too kind, which is why such a servant dares to be so arrogant in front of the master."
"I deserve to die." Yuanzhu immediately knelt down on the ground.
"Okay, why are you arguing with Yuanzhu?" Jiang Chunxi said, "Yuanzhu only said a few words for the sake of caution. Is it worth getting angry?"
"Besides, what Yuanzhu said is not wrong! No matter how good the prescription of the pregnancy-preserving medicine is, if it is not suitable for me to take, then even the best prescription may become poison. So, for the sake of caution, Yuanzhu wants to summon the imperial physician to see what is wrong with this."
"I am a little confused by my sister's big reaction. Could it be that there is something wrong with the pregnancy-preserving medicine?"
Chengpin secretly hated Jiang Chunxi in her heart. She couldn't understand why this fool Jiang Chunxi suddenly became smart. She said with a wronged look on her face: "Sister, how can you doubt me like this? We have been sisters since childhood. Even if everyone in the world wants to harm you, I will never do that to you!"
As she spoke, Chengpin began to wipe away her tears and said, "Sister, what you said really hurts my heart. Since you doubt the pregnancy-preserving medicine I brought, I will take it back now and will not bother you in the future, lest you think that I have ill intentions to harm the baby in your belly and always be suspicious of you."
"Although you misunderstood me, I won't blame you. After all, you are pregnant now, so it's always right to be cautious. I will bother you again after you give birth to the baby. I just hope that by then, you won't suspect me of having bad intentions."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chengpin pretended to stand up and leave.
"My dear sister, it's all my fault. I said the wrong thing, isn't that enough?" Jiang Chunxi quickly grabbed Chengpin's hand, "Alright! Give me the pregnancy-preserving medicine in your hand! Just like what you said, anyone in the world may harm me, but you will never do that to me. After all, we are good sisters who grew up together."
Chengpin finally smiled: "Of course, the sisterhood between us has been cultivated since childhood. Although we are not from the same family, I treat you as my own sister, so how could I possibly harm you?"
"This prescription for the pregnancy-preserving medicine was found for you by my sister's family based on your physical condition. I'm not a reckless person. How could I not know this common sense and let you take the pregnancy-preserving medicine without permission?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Chengpin gave Yuanzhu, who was kneeling on the ground, a fierce look, and then handed the pregnancy-preserving medicine in her hand to Jiang Chunxi with a smiling face: "Sister, drink it while it's hot, otherwise if the medicine gets cold, it will affect the efficacy and that will be bad."
Jiang Chunxi took the medicine, and Yuanzhu, who was kneeling on the ground, said anxiously, "Master, no! How can you take this pregnancy-preserving medicine without letting the imperial physician take a look at it?"
"How dare you," Chengpin said angrily, "you lowly maid, you are really lawless, aren't you? If you dare to say anything more, I will have someone slap you in the face."
"Alright, alright," Jiang Chunxi said helplessly, "Why are you so angry at Yuanzhu? Yuanzhu is just being cautious after all. This is not a big deal. Why are you..."
"Alas!" Jiang Chunxi sighed and didn't plan to say anything to Chengpin anymore. Instead, she looked at Yuanzhu who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Yuanzhu, get up quickly! I know you are not wrong to be cautious, but I also believe that Chengpin will never harm me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Chunxi drank the pregnancy-preserving medicine in her hand without hesitation, leaving Yuanzhu no time to stop her.
As soon as Jiang Chunxi drank the medicine, her stomach started to hurt immediately.
In fact, according to the medicine given by the Queen Mother, the effect should not have been so fast. In the original owner's previous life, the original owner's stomach began to hurt not long after Chengpin left.
But Jiang Chunxi had no intention of letting Chengpin leave, so she immediately pretended to have a stomachache.
"You..." Jiang Chunxi covered her aching stomach and looked at Chengpin in disbelief, "You actually poisoned the medicine. You have such a vicious mind! I thought of you as a good sister, but I didn't expect you to hurt me like this."
"Someone, come! Bring Chengpin to me."
Chengpin was dumbfounded. By the time she came to her senses, she had already been controlled by the people in Jiang Chunxi's palace.
"Sister, I am innocent!" Chengpin was forced to kneel on the ground, crying bitterly, "I didn't know the pregnancy-preserving medicine was poisoned. If I had known that someone would use me to harm you, I would never have brought you pregnancy-preserving medicine. Sister, please don't let others' conspiracy and trickery wrongly accuse me, otherwise, won't it make the murderer behind the scenes even more proud?"
"Bring me my dagger," Jiang Chunxi looked at Chengpin with bloodshot eyes, "You bitch, you are still quibbling at this time. I trust you so much, but you take advantage of my trust in you and dare to murder me so blatantly."
Yuanman immediately took the dagger and handed it to Jiang Chunxi, who was now in tears: "Madam Chengpin, you have such a vicious mind. My madam has always treated you as a good sister, but you harmed my madam like this and murdered the prince in her belly. Aren't you afraid that the emperor will exterminate your entire clan?"
"I didn't, I didn't," Chengpin burst into tears. She was really scared at this moment. Jiang Chunxi looked so creepy holding the dagger. "Sister, I really didn't! Don't you think that if I really wanted to hurt you, I wouldn't dare to do it so blatantly!"
"Someone must be using my sister to harm you, and they want to kill two birds with one stone. Not only will they harm the baby in my belly, but they can also get rid of my sister. Sister, don't let your anger cloud your mind and fall for someone else's poisonous plan to kill two birds with one stone!"
"My Lady Concubine, my mistress is really wronged!" Ruyan also cried and begged. She was naturally controlled just like her master at this time. "Even if my mistress really wanted to harm my Lady Concubine, she wouldn't use such a brutal method and put herself in trouble! My Lady Concubine, please calm down and don't wrongly accuse my mistress."
