Female supremacy: The evil woman only wants to ascend the throne
Chapter 78: Poisoning in the Kitchen
Wan Qingyan already had a plan in mind. She wanted to praise the empress highly. For a ruler, who would refuse a good reputation for being wise and brave and caring for the people?
Once these praise articles spread widely, the Empress will win over the people and consolidate her rule, while Wan Qingyan can also use this opportunity to consolidate and improve his position in the Empress' heart! A win-win situation for both parties!
"Fifth sister, how about writing some articles about the princess and third sister?"
Wan Qingyu raised her eyebrows and smiled, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes. She didn't say it directly but hinted at it, wanting to see if Wan Qingyan had any ideas in this regard!
"Of course I have to write about this, but not now! Also, I can't write about Wan Qingyu either. Just writing about the princess is enough!"
Wan Qingyan heard the hidden meaning in Wan Qingyu's words and couldn't help but chuckle. When answering, he deliberately said that he usually hid half of it, letting her guess why!
"Fifth sister, why did you only write about the princess? Why not Third sister? It's obvious that Third sister is the most vicious person!"
As expected, Wan Qingyu immediately asked back. In her opinion, the person who should be written about the most is the villain Wan Qingyu!
Wan Qingyan wanted to tease Wan Qingyu, so he supported his chin with one hand and pretended to be in deep thought.
"Eighth sister, since you asked sincerely, let me say a few words. What are they specifically? Well, I'll just say a few words first! These two sentences are not simple! You must listen carefully to them..."
Wan Qingyan laughed secretly in his heart, deliberately went around in circles and said a lot of irrelevant nonsense.
At this time, Wan Qingyu was looking at Wan Qingyan in confusion, not knowing what she was up to. Although he was confused, he was still looking forward to her answer.
When Wan Qingyan saw Wan Qingyu's expectant yet confused expression, he burst out laughing.
This smile made Wan Qingyu realize that she had been fooled, and she immediately shouted angrily: "Fifth sister, you know that I am not as smart as you, but you still deliberately play tricks on me. This is too much, hum~~"
"Eighth sister, don't be angry, I'm just teasing you, don't take it seriously! I'll tell you now why I only wrote about the princess instead of Wan Qingyu!
Because I have asked Li Guoan to write a letter to inform the princess, letting her know that all the dirty things Wan Qingyu did in Qingzhou were put on her head!
How could a narrow-minded person like the Princess let Wan Qingyu go? We just need to add fuel to the fire. The more we target the Princess, the more ruthless Wan Qingyu will be retaliated against by her! If they fight among themselves, I will be under less pressure!
Wan Qingyan explained in a gentle voice and patted Wan Qingyu's shoulder to comfort him.
Wan Qingyu listened with great interest, nodded repeatedly, understood the twists and turns, and then made a surprise attack and threw himself into Wan Qingyan's arms.
"Fifth sister, if you let me hug you for a while, I won't be angry..."
Wan Qingyu showed an unconcealable joy on her face, her eyes sparkling. She finally found a reason to stick to Wan Qingyan.
"Okay, okay, as long as you're happy!"
Wan Qingyan smiled helplessly and dotingly. At this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little confused. She wondered if there was a magnet in her body, otherwise why did so many people like to jump into her arms?
"Alright! Stop being so annoying. My legs are numb from standing. Let's get to work!"
After a long time, Wan Qingyan couldn't stand being hugged anymore, so he quickly pushed Wan Qingyu away and sent her to do something!
After finally getting rid of Wan Qingyu, Teng Li came over again with square steps.
"Teng Li, what's wrong?"
Wan Qingyan sat down on the chair, chuckled and asked a question, pointing to the chair next to him, indicating Teng Li to sit down and talk!
"Your Highness, I discovered someone poisoned the food in the government office!"
As soon as Teng Li opened her mouth, she revealed some bombshell news. Wan Qingyan was shocked and asked hurriedly.
"Who?"
"It was a kitchen helper. I went to the kitchen to get some steamed buns and happened to see him poisoning the food. I didn't alert him. Your Highness, please decide how to deal with him!"
Teng Li reported the situation concisely, described the man's appearance, and waited for Wan Qingyan's next instructions.
"Bring that man here, I want to see who he is!"
Wan Qingyan suppressed her anger and replied with a gloomy face, the cruelty in her eyes was not concealed at all. She probably guessed who was the mastermind behind this!
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Teng Li bowed and accepted the order, then walked out quickly.
A moment later, Teng Li walked in with a thin man tied up.
"So it's you! You're so heartless! I helped you escape your evil wife, gave you money and a job, and this is how you repay me?"
Wan Qingyan's face was as gloomy as water and he smiled coldly. This man was actually the husband of the woman who had caused trouble and prevented the burning of the corpse!
She had done her best for this man, but she never expected that she would end up nurturing a tiger and bring disaster upon herself by becoming a spy.
"Your Highness, they threatened me with poisoning my family. If I didn't do it, they would kill my whole family. I have no choice, but I swear today is the first time I've poisoned someone. Please, Your Highness, spare my life..."
The man knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, crying with tears in his eyes, his face full of regret and self-blame, as if he really had a huge hardship and had to do these things.
"Who are they?"
Wan Qingyan asked in a cold voice, staring at the man with eyes as sharp as knives.
"They... I don't know either. Every time we meet, they cover their faces and don't let me ask any more questions."
The man answered haltingly, his eyes avoiding Wan Qingyan, as if he was hiding some secret.
"Teng Li, drag this man away and behead him!"
Seeing that she could not get any useful information out of this man, Wan Qingyan impatiently ordered Teng Li to execute him. She really didn't want to see this man; it made her sick just looking at him!
"As you command, Your Highness!"
Teng Li responded and dragged the man out the door, but the man still did not give up hope of survival. He shouted for mercy at the top of his voice, trying to arouse Wan Qingyan's sympathy and ask her to spare his life.
"If you dare to scream again, I will not only kill you, but also your family. I have already shown mercy to you, so don't test my patience!"
Wan Qingyan shouted angrily, murderous intent in his eyes almost overflowing, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
When the man heard this, he immediately shut up, knowing that if he continued talking, his entire family would be wiped out. He believed that Wan Qingyan would do what he said!
Through this incident, Wan Qingyan also understood a truth: while she was calculating others, others were also calculating her, so she couldn't let her guard down inside! She decided to reorganize the small kitchen and hand it over to Teng Li to take care of it.
As the sky gradually darkened, it was like a huge black curtain slowly descending. Wan Qingyan had no appetite for dinner. He hurriedly changed into his night clothes and went to find Cui Shici!
