Female supremacy: The evil woman only wants to ascend the throne
Chapter 4 The poisoner
In addition to working hard on Ye Yuanan, Wan Qingyan is also constantly improving himself.
When Ye Yuanan was not out of the house, she studied hard and practiced swordsmanship.
Although her current body has average talent for martial arts, she was proficient in swordsmanship in her previous life. With her experience, she made rapid progress in sword practice.
Qiu Lian would also come from time to time to report the new instructions given by Wan Qingyu.
Wan Qingyu gave Qiu Lian medicine to relieve the aphrodisiac poison and told him not to poison him for the time being and to act cautiously.
She also knew that poisoning now would be too obvious.
Time flies, and it is time for the court meeting again.
Early in the morning, Wan Qingyan got on a carriage to attend the court meeting.
Before she left the house, she looked up at the sky. It was clear and sunny, without a single cloud.
But she still instructed the butler to put two more umbrellas in the carriage.
Wan Qingyu did not attend today's court meeting due to illness.
The empress was furious. After scolding several ministers who had not performed their duties well, she announced that she would withdraw from the court.
After the court meeting, Wan Qingyu took Wan Qingyan to the restaurant for dinner.
Before the two of them had gone far, the female official came to deliver an oral order.
"Fifth Prince, His Majesty summons you."
"Yes."
Wan Qingyan nodded in agreement, let go of Wan Qingyu's hand, and followed the female official.
Wan Qingyu, who was left alone there, was mentally devastated.
She went to Wan Qingyan's mansion on purpose a few days ago.
I thought of inviting Wan Qingyan to watch a play and have a meal together, but in the end I didn't see him.
After leaving the court, I finally found the person, but I didn't expect that he would be intercepted by the empress again.
She just wanted to spend some time alone with Wan Qingyan, why was it so difficult!
On the other side, Wan Qingyan followed the female official into the empress's bedroom.
"Daughter, I respectfully wish the Queen Mother good health."
"Xiaowu, come here."
The empress kept turning the jade ring on her thumb, with a smile on her face but a hint of anger in her tone.
"Yes, Queen Mother."
Wan Qingyan stood up and walked up to the empress with a grin on his face.
"Xiaowu, you look a lot thinner than a few days ago. How are you feeling now?"
The empress looked Wan Qingyan up and down, a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes, and she reached out and gently touched her cheek.
"My daughter feels much better now. She can eat and sleep well, so there's no need to worry, Queen Mother!"
Wan Qingyan smiled sweetly, tilted her head and rubbed the empress's hand with her face.
"Xiaowu, do you know why you are sick?"
The empress tapped Wan Qingyan's forehead lightly and asked in a serious tone.
"My daughter doesn't know, and the Imperial Hospital's judge didn't explain it clearly. He only said that if my daughter abstains from sex for over a month, her health will improve! Isn't it because of my daughter's excessive indulgence that her health has deteriorated?"
Wan Qingyan pretended to be confused, frowned, and asked back.
"Hey, bring the people up!"
The empress sighed heavily and glared at Wan Qingyan with a look of disappointment.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Lian was brought up, tied up.
Qiu Lian had a gag in her mouth and kept whimpering.
The slap marks on the face and the whip marks on the body are particularly conspicuous.
"Mother Queen, why is this happening? Is it because of him that my body is in trouble?"
Wan Qingyan asked with a confused and incredulous look.
"Xiao Wu, since you can ask this question now, you are not hopelessly stupid. This slave is the source of the poison in your body."
The empress looked at Wan Qingyan's face full of disbelief, her teeth itching with anger and her brows furrowed.
She originally thought that her daughter was just a little lustful and nothing serious would happen.
She never expected that she would be almost poisoned to death by a lowly male lover, and in such an obscene way. It was really shameful and helpless.
Wan Qingyan's face froze, he stared at the empress blankly, and fell to his knees on the ground with a thud.
"Mother, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, but I don't believe Qiu Lian would poison me. There must be something hidden!"
Wan Qingyan's eyes were slightly red, and he kept shaking his head and saying it was impossible, his voice choked and sad.
When the empress heard this, her face instantly turned gloomy and her eyes became more and more angry.
She also knew in her heart that a lowly male slave could not have such a sophisticated aphrodisiac. There must be someone behind the scenes directing this matter. It was not a simple matter.
Her spies also found out the person behind the scenes, but this person made it very difficult for her to deal with him!
"Xiao Wu, since you don't want to believe it, then ask clearly."
The empress waved her hand, and the maids who were holding Qiu Lian let go.
Wan Qingyan rushed to Qiu Lian, their eyes met, and they exchanged a tacit look, and he blinked.
Wan Qingyan nodded imperceptibly and pulled the gag out of his mouth.
"Qiu Lian, is it really you who harmed me?"
Wan Qingyan gathered his emotions, his eyes slightly red with tears in them, and he asked with a choked sob.
Qiu Lian lowered her head silently, not daring to look into Wan Qingyan's eyes.
"Your Highness, it's me who harmed you. I have the Western Regions' aphrodisiac poison in my body. Every time you make love with me, your body will be poisoned more deeply until you die."
Qiu Lian choked and stammered, her head lowering with every word.
"For you, I dismissed all my male favorites and only favored you. Your food, clothing, and daily necessities are all top-notch. How could I ever treat you unfairly? And this is how you repay me?"
Wan Qingyan reached out and pinched Qiu Lian's chin hard, forcing him to look up, and questioned him loudly and angrily.
Her eyes were filled with resentment and indignation, tears streaming down her cheeks and dripping between his brows.
Looking at Wan Qingyan's crying and angry appearance, the system couldn't help but admire him.
"Host, your acting is really good. You can cry as soon as you say you want to, and it looks like the real thing!"
"Shut up! Don't affect my performance!"
Wan Qingyan angrily retorted to the system, and the emotions that had been brewing were almost disrupted by it.
Qiu Lian's body trembled as she was stimulated by the tears dripping from her brows.
Looking at her angry and sad eyes, a strange emotion flashed through my heart, and I subconsciously avoided her gaze.
At this moment, he really couldn't tell whether Wan Qingyan's words and emotions were true or false!!!
"Your Highness treats me very well, but I have no choice. If I don't do this, someone will die!"
Qiu Lian's tone was desperate and sad, and the life in his eyes gradually disappeared.
"Qiu Lian, who told you to harm me? Who ordered you to do this?"
Wan Qingyan pressed Qiu Lian's shoulders and squeezed them three times, then winked at him.
Qiu Lian looked into her eyes, her body tensed up unconsciously, and she nodded subtly.
"Third Prince! It was the Third Prince who sent me to the Fifth Prince. My little sister is in the Third Prince's hands, and there's nothing I can do!"
As soon as Qiu Lian finished speaking, the empress suddenly clenched her fists and murderous intent flashed in her eyes.
She looked at Qiu Lian as if she was looking at a dead person. Regardless of whether the matter was true or not, he was doomed to die if he dared to get involved in this matter and reveal such palace secrets.
After hearing this, Wan Qingyan felt like he was petrified. He covered his chest with one hand, his face full of disbelief.
After being stunned for a few seconds, she slapped Qiu Lian twice.
"You're talking nonsense! Third Sister always treats me kindly, and I've never argued with her. She has no reason to kill me!"
Wan Qingyan was terrified and stumbled and fell to the ground. Then he turned around and looked at the empress pitifully.
"Xiaowu, come here."
The empress waved to Wan Qingyan and sighed softly.
Looking at Wan Qingyan's uneasy eyes, the empress felt a rare surge of maternal love and heartache in her heart.
Wan Qingyan didn't have time to throw himself into the empress's arms and act coquettishly to enhance their relationship.
Wan Qingyu's annoying voice was heard outside the hall.
Wan Qingyu arrived just in time. Speak of the devil and he will appear.
"My daughter Wan Qingyu respectfully wishes the Queen Mother good health!"
There was no trace of panic in Wan Qingyu's voice, and he remained so cold and calm.
