I just want to rob you of your luck
Chapter 249: Plundering the Concubine's Luck 17
"Yuyao, go tell the palace servant who is serving the dishes that I chose grape wine."
Yuyao felt that she had completed most of her task and was in a relaxed mood, so she left without any suspicion.
Lin Jiuer immediately used 500 points to exchange for a bottle of detoxification pill from the space mall.
"Yuling, take this medicine. If I show any symptoms of poisoning later, wait for the imperial physician to examine me, and then find a chance to give me the medicine."
She arranged a retreat in advance just in case, as she values her life very much.
Yuling took the small porcelain bottle in shock and said worriedly, "Master, how do you know that you will be poisoned later?"
"Don't worry about that, just do what I say."
Yuling suddenly thought of something and said in disbelief: "It can't be Yuyao..."
Lin Jiuer didn't say anything else.
After a while, Yuyao came back and stood quietly behind Lin Jiuer.
Yuling was a little uneasy and looked at Yuyao secretly. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with her, she felt relieved.
The guests have almost all arrived. Today, Concubine Zhao and His Majesty sat side by side at the top. She looked at everyone with a dignified smile as they presented their birthday gifts to His Majesty.
Lin Jiuer looked at the gifts from those people, and touched her own gift in her sleeve, a sachet with a crooked dragon pattern embroidered on it.
It's really not presentable, but she doesn't plan to change it.
Anyway, the concubines in the harem don’t need to present gifts in public today.
After the tribute session, Zhu Heng made a brief speech and then ordered the meal to begin.
One after another, exquisite dishes and delicacies were served.
Lin Jiuer ate the food carelessly, but her eyes were always focused on the actions of Concubine Zhao at the top.
When the drinks were served, she glanced in Lin Jiuer's direction.
Then she saw a palace maid bringing her a glass of what seemed to be grape wine.
Concubine Zhao raised the wine glass and clinked it with Zhu Heng's, then prepared to drink it in one gulp.
Lin Jiuer directly used the control talisman on her.
Everyone in the hall was eating quietly when Concubine Zhao said to Zhu Heng:
"Your Majesty, I heard that Concubine Wan likes to drink grape wine, so why not give this glass of wine to Concubine Wan?"
Zhu Heng was stunned, but he always felt that Concubine Zhao had no good intentions, so he planned to refuse on behalf of Lin Jiuer.
"I haven't even heard of this, how did you know?"
Concubine Zhao said proudly: "Yuyao, who is beside Concubine Wan, told me this. How could it be false?"
Everyone in the hall had different expressions, and most of them had heard that Concubine Zhao and Concubine Wan had a disagreement.
Yu Yao, who was standing behind Lin Jiuer, turned pale in an instant. She lowered her head and dared not look at anyone. She did not expect why Concubine Zhao suddenly exposed her.
Revealing one's master's habits to other masters is tantamount to betrayal. Yuling didn't expect that Yuyao would really betray her master, and she glared at Yuyao angrily.
At this time, the palace servant also brought Lin Jiuer a glass of grape wine. Lin Jiuer stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I already have grape wine here. I can only drink one glass of wine, so there is no need to reward me with anything else."
Concubine Zhao called a palace maid over and handed her the wine. "Go, give this cup of wine to Concubine Wan. Can the reward from me be the same as the one given by the palace maid?"
Zhu Heng's expression gradually turned cold, but he still managed to hold back from losing his temper in public.
Not knowing what was wrong with Concubine Zhao, Nanny Cai, who was standing behind her, anxiously pulled her sleeve.
She didn't know what was wrong with Concubine Zhao? This cup of wine was poisoned. Wouldn't it be a bad thing for her to give it to Lin Jiuer?
Not only did Concubine Zhao ignore her, she also turned around and glared at her: "You little slave, you don't need to meddle in my affairs!"
Nanny Zhao was both angry and anxious, but she didn't dare to speak out a word to remind them in public.
Lin Jiuer took the glass of grape wine given by Concubine Zhao and drank it elegantly and calmly.
After drinking, she turned the cup downwards and said to Concubine Zhao: "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your reward."
Yuling and Yuyao behind her were both extremely nervous. Yuling was worried about Lin Jiuer's safety, while Yuyao was afraid that if anything happened to Lin Jiuer, it would definitely be traced back to her.
Zhu Heng also stared at Lin Jiuer quietly. Although he was worried in his heart, he did not show it on his face.
Lin Jiuer sat down with a smile, intending to eat some food to suppress the smell of alcohol, but suddenly her face turned pale, she covered her chest with her hands, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and then fell down.
"master!"
"Jiu'er!"
"Lady Wan!"
Seeing Lin Jiuer fall down, the surroundings suddenly became chaotic.
Yuling supported Lin Jiuer to prevent her from falling to the ground.
Zhu Heng no longer cared about etiquette and rushed to Lin Jiuer and picked her up.
"Quickly call the imperial physician!"
Then, regardless of the guests in the hall, he walked straight towards the side hall at the back.
When he passed by the upper seat, he glanced coldly at Concubine Zhao. There was no affection in his eyes, only disgust and hatred.
At this time, Concubine Zhao had returned to normal. She felt cold all over when Zhu Heng looked at her, and fell to the ground.
Aunt Cai quickly stepped forward to help her stand up, and couldn't help complaining: "My little ancestor, what's wrong with you?! Wasn't that glass of wine prepared for you? It's all over now!"
Concubine Zhao murmured in a daze, "Mammy, I don't know what happened just now. That was not my intention at all. That little bitch must be a demon incarnate!"
Aunt Cai just thought that she was frightened and started talking nonsense.
Duke Zhao and his wife also came to the banquet today, but the male and female guests were seated on separate sides.
The two looked at each other from a distance, and saw worry in each other's eyes.
They knew that their daughter was a little spoiled, but they didn't expect that she hadn't made any progress after so many years of life in the harem.
Even if they wanted to deal with Concubine Wan, there was no need for such a high-profile action. Now everyone can testify that it was Concubine Zhao who forced Concubine Wan to drink the poisoned wine.
Even if she was the queen, she couldn't give poisoned wine to people in public! What's more, she was just a concubine.
How can you claim the throne when you have such a stain on your body!
Duke Zhao is simply so disappointed in his friend!
When they arrived at the side hall, Yuling and Yuyao also followed.
Zhu Heng put Lin Jiuer on the bed and turned around to see Yu Yao.
Killing intent flashed in his eyes:
"Fushun, take this slave away and lock her up for interrogation!"
Fushun immediately had Yuyao taken away. Yuyao was so frightened that she didn't even have time to say a word before she was taken away.
After the imperial physician examined Lin Jiuer, Zhu Heng asked anxiously, "How is Concubine Wan?"
"Your Majesty, Lady Wan has indeed been poisoned. This poison is something I have never seen before. I can only give her some antidote to temporarily suppress the toxicity, and then research the antidote."
Zhu Heng suddenly remembered that the poisoned wine was given by Concubine Zhao, so maybe Concubine Zhao had an antidote.
"Fushun, bring Concubine Zhao to me immediately!"
