Chapter 128: Testing the Poison on Herself

Su Qingwen felt her mind was in a complete mess and couldn't think of anything.

"System, please help me quickly. What should I do now?" She was already extremely desperate. Now being interrogated by that annoying Fat Concubine made her feel so pitiful.

[System: Dear, I'm really sorry. I can't give a correct answer to this problem because you're still in a state where you can't use any functions.]

Su Qingwen was truly desperate this time. She clenched her fists, not knowing what to do.

"Hey, Concubine Xian, say something! Why are you silent now? Do you know in your heart that you're in the wrong?" The Fat Concubine squinted her eyes and put her hands on her hips.

"No." Su Qingwen raised her eyes, sneered and said, "What did you just say? You said there was something wrong with this porridge. I tell you, I did make this porridge with my own hands, and I added all kinds of seasonings to it myself. I'm clear about every step, so there must be nothing wrong with it. I'll drink it right now to show you."

After saying that, Su Qingwen strode over, quickly picked up the bowl and was about to drink the porridge.

The Fat Concubine widened her eyes. She thought this woman was really brave.

Hua Yueye quickly stepped forward and grabbed Su Qingwen's arm, saying seriously, "Qingwen, calm down. I believe you didn't poison it. Don't be so impulsive. What if there really is something in it?"

"No!" Su Qingwen snorted coldly. Now everyone suspected her. How could she keep silent? She had to fight for her dignity. As she said this, it seemed that an inexplicable strength burst out from her body. Even Hua Yueye couldn't stop her. She pushed the person away abruptly and quickly took a sip of the porridge.

"How could you?" Hua Yueye was also startled by her strength. What was wrong with this girl today? How could she have so much strength?

Su Qingwen took a sip of the porridge. She thought the taste was okay. She squinted her eyes, sneered and threw the bowl on the ground. Then she looked back at the Fat Concubine.

Didn't they want proof? Fine, she would prove to everyone that she wasn't a bad person who would poison others.

The Fat Concubine widened her eyes and frowned tightly. This Su Qingwen really had some nerve. Now she even dared to throw things in front of so many people.

"Now you've all seen. I'm fine." Su Qingwen raised her chin and looked at Hua Yueye firmly.

"Sister - in - law?" Hua Xue'er rushed in quickly. She looked at everyone anxiously, breathing nervously, "You mustn't let Brother Emperor drink that preserved - egg and lean - meat porridge."

"What?" Su Qingwen looked at Hua Xue'er in disbelief. What was going on today? Everything seemed to go wrong. Why did everyone think she had poisoned the porridge?

"What's wrong with all of you? I've already said that I didn't poison it. Why does everyone come to wrong me?" Su Qingwen felt a breath of anger welling up in her chest. Her head was buzzing and she had a splitting headache.

Hua Xue'er shook her head and patted her chest. "I don't mean that. I just want to say that there really is something wrong with this preserved - egg and lean - meat porridge."

"Hmm?" The Fat Concubine seemed to have grasped some handle. Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Your Majesty, listen. Even the princess saw that woman Su Qingwen poison it."

"Pah!" The drug in Hua Xue'er's body had worn off a lot, and her consciousness had become much clearer.

"Don't talk nonsense here. I didn't say that. What I just wanted to say was that I saw with my own eyes the personal eunuch beside Gao Quan run into the imperial kitchen. Judging from his furtive appearance, he must have had bad intentions. So there really is something unclean in this porridge."

Hua Xue'er took a deep breath and said.

Hearing this, Su Qingwen felt her head was about to explode. What a mess! If the porridge really had poison in it, wasn't she going to die soon?

Despair welled up wave after wave. She suddenly wanted to ask if she could quit this game. She really didn't want to play anymore.

"Qingwen, how do you feel now?" Hua Yueye quickly stepped forward and supported her shoulders.

"I..." She really wanted to find a place quickly to vomit out this damned preserved - egg and lean - meat porridge, but it seemed a bit late.

Suddenly, a sharp pain came from her stomach. Su Qingwen squinted her eyes. Tears welled up and her body began to tremble.

"Qingwen?" Hua Yueye quickly carried her to the bed and looked at her with concern. "Are you not feeling well?"

Maybe it was really poison. Su Qingwen felt her stomach was in a complete turmoil. Moreover, she had a feeling of nausea. "You..."

She opened her mouth with difficulty, but for some reason, there was a smell of blood in her mouth. When she lowered her head, a large amount of blood gushed out of her mouth, staining the clothes on her chest red.

At that moment, Hua Yueye seemed to be stabbed in the eyes by that streak of red. He opened his eyes wide and shouted sternly, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and call the imperial doctor!"

Hearing Hua Yueye's words, those people finally reacted and rushed out one by one to find the imperial doctor.

The Fat Concubine watched this scene. A smug and satisfied smile appeared on her lips. Su Qingwen was really a fool. She actually drank that porridge. Now she was poisoned. Serves her right. Let her show off. It would be best if she died!

Thinking of this, the Fat Concubine spat on the ground to express her dissatisfaction.

Hua Xue'er quickly stepped forward. She was so anxious that tears were about to fall. "Sister - in - law, how could you be so stupid? You actually drank this preserved - egg porridge directly."

Su Qingwen really wanted to explain, but her stomach hurt so much that she couldn't stop spitting out blood. In her whole life, she never thought she could spit out so much blood.

She smiled helplessly and sighed. She waved her hand, signaling Hua Xue'er not to say anymore.

"Hua Yueye." She grabbed the man's clothes with difficulty. Her eyes were a bit red. Today, she might not be able to hold on anymore. But anyway, she and Hua Yueye had known each other. She really didn't want to leave a bad impression on him.

"Don't talk first. The imperial doctor will come soon. Hold on a little longer." Hua Yueye reached out and held her cold little hand. He looked at her with grief in his eyes.

"I... may... not be able to hold on until then." Su Qingwen's eyes were red. She said with difficulty, "Isn't there a saying that 'a man's words are good when he is about to die'? Just listen to me carefully."

"Okay." Grief welled up in his heart. Hua Yueye never wanted to shed tears in his life, but now, a sour feeling welled up in his nose.
