After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

Cui Rong had a meaningful smile on her lips, as if she had seen through everything: "It seems that I must find out the truth as soon as possible, otherwise, the relationship between sisters will be overshadowed."

After she finished speaking, she gently placed her hand on Zhao Xianer's delicate wrist. The sudden close movement made Zhao Xianer tremble involuntarily.

"Sister Cui, Sister Cui, what are you doing?" Zhao Xianer's voice was a little uncomfortable and confused.

Cui Rong stepped back slightly, with a faint smile showing her insight into the world on her face: "It turns out that what Sister Zhao was poisoned with was just a common blood-vomiting powder on the market. No wonder just a small sip of tea can cause such a violent reaction."

"Although accidentally ingesting the vomiting blood powder is not life-threatening, it is enough to make you feel weak and dizzy due to a brief period of heavy blood loss. You will recover after a few days of rest."

Cui Rongrong's words were full of professionalism.

Doctor Zhou was surprised when he heard this, and his voice was filled with anxiety: "Ms. Zhao clearly showed symptoms of poisoning, how could it be explained by Qu Tuxue Powder? Miss Cui, please don't jump to conclusions just because your medical skills are not sophisticated enough!"

Cui Rongrong ignored his questioning. Instead, she turned her eyes and focused on the abnormality under the feet of the maid next to Zhao Xianer: "What is hidden under your feet? Why not tell me?"

The maidservant obviously did not expect to be called suddenly. She stood there for a moment, looking very flustered.

Zhao Xian'er's heart instantly rose to her throat, but due to the occasion she dared not make a sound.

How could Cui Rong know the secret under the maid's feet?

Could it be that she had seen everything the moment she handed the poison to the maid?

“I don’t want to ask it a second time.”

Cui Rongrong's voice was cold but majestic.

The maid's eyes were red, and she was obviously overwhelmed by the pressure and was in a dilemma.

He stole a glance at Zhao Xian'er and was met with the warning and threat implied in his master's eyes.

Cui Rong's eyes flashed slightly, then she strode forward and pushed the maid away without any hesitation.

A piece of brown paper folded into a square was revealed on the ground.

She bent down to pick it up, and her eyes inadvertently swept across the maid who was trying to dodge and the doctor who seemed at a loss beside her, and finally stopped on Zhao Xianer's stunned face.

She calmly unfolded the brown paper in her hand and lightly dipped her fingertips into some medicine powder.

He put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and said calmly and firmly: "This is the medicine powder that causes vomiting blood."

This scene made Zhao Xian'er sweat profusely. She didn't even have time to wait for the reactions of the people around her before she shouted at the maid: "You traitor! I usually treat you well, how dare you do this to me!"

The maid's face immediately turned pale. She hurriedly caught the hint in Zhao Xian'er's eyes and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowing like crazy: "Please spare my life, Miss! I was confused for a moment and listened to those rumors in the capital. I felt sorry for Miss and wanted to teach Miss Cui a lesson, but I didn't expect that I ended up hurting her instead!"

"Miss Cui, all the faults are mine alone! I hope Madam, Miss will punish me severely!"

The maid's voice was filled with regret and despair.

Zhao Xian'er was heartbroken, and an indescribable sadness flashed in her eyes.

He stared at the maid in front of him, his voice mixed with disappointment and regret, "You have been by my side for many years, and I have long regarded you as a close family member. How can the friendship between me and Sister Cui be easily shaken by the rumors of the outside world? Your behavior really makes my heart feel like it has fallen into an ice cave, and it is very chilling!"

Tears sparkled in the girl's eyes. She looked at Madam Zhao with a pleading look in her eyes. "Mother, can you allow me to handle this matter myself? Since it was caused by me, I should bear the consequences and resolve it."

There was a flicker in Mrs. Zhao's eyes, as if she was weighing the pros and cons, and finally she nodded slightly.

After all, Zhao Xian'er was her flesh and blood. When she saw a maid kneeling down to admit her mistake, she had already seen through the hidden truth.

Cui Rong, who was watching the development of the situation from the side, had a mind as clear as a mirror.

She saw the undercurrents between Zhao Xian'er and the maid, but she also knew that Zhao Xian'er's quick response this time made it impossible for her to find any clues to incriminate her.

In this war without gunpowder, she chose to remain silent.

If the attack cannot be fatal in one blow, it is better to temporarily restrain the edge and wait for the opportunity.

Seeing that Zhao Xian'er seemed to have severely punished the maid, she then turned around.

With apology and sincerity in his eyes, he said to Cui Rongrong: "Sister Cui, I almost misunderstood you. I really shouldn't have done that. Please be magnanimous and forgive my recklessness and impulsiveness."

She continued to sincerely promise: "From now on, I will strictly monitor the words and actions of the servants in my house to ensure that such incidents will not happen again, so as to avoid causing unnecessary trouble and harm to my sister and other sisters again."

Cui Rongrong was half-believing and half-doubting in her heart, but her face remained calm. She said softly, "Sister Zhao must have been quite frightened by what happened today. I hope you can take good care of yourself and not blame yourself too much."

Zhao Xian'er lowered her head in apology. "Today I did not fulfill my duties as a host and failed to properly entertain Sister Cui and my sisters. I am really ashamed. I hope you can understand..."

Upon hearing this, the guests around offered words of comfort, but Cui Rong just said a few perfunctory words and quietly left with her sister Cui Yunhe.

As soon as he stepped into the carriage, Cui Yunhe seemed to relax and let out a long sigh. "That was a close call just now. Fortunately, my sister was very smart. If it were just me, I would have been blamed for it."

Cui Rongrong did not make a direct response to her sister's praise. She understood in her heart that Zhao Xianer's actions were obviously targeted at someone. How could she easily back down in the face of provocation?

"If you encounter such a thing again in the future, you don't have to intervene. I have my own way and will not let anyone succeed."

Her tone was firm and confident.

Cui Yunhe's eyes were full of admiration, and then he asked curiously: "Sister actually knows medical skills, and it seems that she is more skilled than those specialized doctors. Did you learn these when you were in the frontier?"

After she finished speaking, she looked towards Cui Rong with a look that was not only full of admiration but also a bit of pity.

Cui Rong smiled slightly, "It is indeed what I learned during my time in the frontier. If we talk about the exquisite medical skills, I am afraid there are few people in the whole capital who can match me."

This is not arrogance. In her previous life, her attainments in drug making were unmatched. After she was reborn.

Her abilities are even better than before, and since medicine and poison complement each other, her medical skills are naturally at the pinnacle.

Cui Rongrong smiled warmly, and she said to Cui Yunhe affectionately: "If anyone dares to bully you in the future, just tell me. I will never allow you to suffer the slightest injustice."
