Chapter 633 - 633: Princess Consort Heng Poisoned Noble Consort Xian to Death
“Sister-in-law is so thoughtful.” Noble Consort Xian smiled, and then, according to Madam Dan’s idea, she distributed the rest to the servants around her, “This is sister-in-law’s kind intentions for you all. You all should eat it to avoid similar situations in the future and cause me to be worried.
“Yes…” The palace maids and eunuchs who were close to Noble Consort Xian all came forward and shared the desserts.
When Madam Dan saw this, her heart that had been hanging in the air finally settled down.
Just as Noble Consort Xian was about to ask Madam Dan how Imperial Physician Qin had died, her body trembled and she suddenly started coughing uncontrollably.
“Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough!” Noble Consort Xian’s cough became more and more severe, and she hurriedly asked the maidservant beside her to serve tea. “Hui Xin, quickly give me… some tea.”
Hui Xin was just about to agree, but her body trembled. She opened her mouth, but no sound came out. Instead, she spat out a large pool of blood.
Noble Consort Xian looked at this scene in shock. She saw Hui Xin and the other palace maids and eunuchs all vomit blood and fall to the ground. As they struggled and twitched, they stopped breathing.
Noble Consort Xian’s gaze fell on the plate that was filled with desserts. She looked as if she had been struck by lightning and went straight to Madam Dan.
“It’s
Hui Xin and the others had eaten more snacks than Noble Consort Xian, so it was reasonable for the poison to act up faster.
However, Madam Dan could not figure it out. Gu Lingyue said that they would only make Noble Consort Xian and the others lose their ability to think, right? How did the situation turn around when all these people died?
Suddenly realizing that she had been set up by Gu Lingyue, Madam Dan hurriedly wanted to make Noble Consort Xian spit out the dessert. “Younger sister, it wasn’t me. I was also schemed against! Hurry, spit it out!”
Noble Consort Xian would never have thought that the person she trusted the most would harm her. At this time, the poison had already acted up, and blood was constantly gushing out of her mouth.
However, Noble Consort Xian seemed to be unwilling to give up. She stretched out her hand and grabbed Madam Dan’s arm with force. She spat out the blood in her mouth on Madam Dan’s body and said, “It’s you! You poisoned me!”
Being questioned so loudly, Madam Dan trembled in fear, “No, it wasn’t me. I was also thinking of His Highness and our entire family. It wasn’t my fault!”
Just as Madam Dan’s words reached this point, the tightly shut palace doors were opened. Gu Lingyue was standing outside the door with a group of guards behind her, taking in the bloody scene in the palace.
When Madam Dan saw Gu Lingyue’s sinister smile, she clearly realized that she had been tricked. She subconsciously wanted to shout and resist.
However, before she could say anything, her body seemed to be frozen and she lost the strength to resist. It was as if he had lost control of her body. Madam Dan could not move at all.
Her ear was burning in pain. She thought of the poison that Gu Lingyue had told her about. It could make people lose the ability to resist first, then turn them into idiots!
It turned out that the poison that Gu Lingyue said was prepared for her. This woman had planned to use her as a scapegoat from the beginning!
It was useless for Madam Dan to understand now. She had no strength to resist, and tears of unwillingness rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
And all of this was within Gu Lingyue’s control. She cleared her throat and screamed, “Ah! Princess Consort Heng has poisoned Noble Consort Xian to death.. Quickly, quickly capture Princess Consort Heng and protect the Noble Consort Xian!”
