After a while, they woke up slowly.
Concubine De was also given an antidote. She ate it with a sorrowful look on her face and said in a serious tone, "Madam Hou, I will take good care of these beggars!"
Lin Yiwan raised her eyes and looked at her: "Before settling these beggars, shouldn't Concubine De first interrogate why your good nanny poisoned you?"
Concubine De subconsciously frowned. Lin Yiwan was really too difficult to deal with.
She suppressed her anger and said, "Madame Leng is my servant. She doesn't need to explain to you why she poisoned me!"
Lin Yiwan interrupted without hesitation: "Your Highness, Concubine De doesn't need to explain to me, but don't you care about the lives of those innocent people?"
Defei was greatly shocked. Seeing the resentment in the beggars' eyes, she clenched her fists tightly.
She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Come here, take Madam Leng down!"
Nanny Leng was forced to kneel at Concubine De's feet. She pleaded tearfully, "Your Majesty, please spare me. I didn't mean to harm them!"
Concubine De gritted her teeth and said, "Whether you did it intentionally or not, I can escape the death penalty, but I can't escape the punishment of life. Do you have any objection to beating you with fifty sticks?"
Nanny Leng widened her eyes in disbelief, then lowered them sadly after a moment.
She lay on the ground and murmured, "This servant has no objection!"
Concubine De shouted sternly, "Drag her away and beat her severely!"
Soon, Nanny Leng's heartbreaking screams were heard outside.
Concubine De closed her eyes sadly, but she still felt a little bit reluctant.
That was the personal nanny who had taken care of her since she was a child, even closer to her than her mother.
She stared at Lin Yiwan intently: "Madam Hou, are you satisfied now?"
Lin Yiwan said indifferently, "I don't understand what your Majesty means. It was clearly your nanny who poisoned people, and I helped you find out. You should be grateful, but why are you blaming me?"
After a moment, she suddenly realized: "Could it be that she was instructed by you to deliberately poison you and trick my grandfather into coming here?"
Concubine De hurriedly denied: "That's ridiculous! Why would I poison myself and put myself in danger?"
Lin Yiwan leaned closer to her and said, "Only you know what Empress Defei is thinking!"
Concubine De was forced to take a half step back by her, her beautiful eyes filled with anxiety and uneasiness.
Lin Yiwan bowed and said, "Since the queen is fine, I will take my grandfather with me and take my leave!"
After saying that, she turned and left quickly.
Looking at her back, Concubine De's face was full of ferocious anger.
She murmured softly, "Lin Yiwan, I will make you suffer sooner or later, just wait and see!"
On the way back in the carriage, Doctor Lin was still feeling frightened.
He sighed, "Wanwan, thank goodness you found out it was Nanny Leng who poisoned me, otherwise, Grandfather would have been blamed!"
Lin Yiwan comforted her softly, "I'm here, I won't let you fall into danger!"
Doctor Lin spoke with concern, "Wanwan, the Marquis is heading to Lingnan City to suppress the bandits. Will City Lord Ye make things difficult for him?"
Lin Yiwan thought to herself, this is not just a problem, they also want his life!
However, she didn't want to worry her grandfather.
She immediately replied, "He's on guard. Grandfather, don't worry about him. What we need to do now is to quickly heal my uncle's leg!"
Doctor Lin sighed helplessly: "Your uncle's condition is getting worse. In a few days, I'm afraid he won't even be able to sit in a wheelchair!"
Lin Yiwan nodded: "I know, I have found someone who can detoxify him!"
Doctor Lin's eyes lit up instantly, and he asked in surprise, "Really? Wanwan, did you really find it?"
Lin Yiwan held his trembling hands and said, "Yes, it's the Poison King. He said he wants to cure my uncle's leg, but he's still short of the poisonous ice toad!"
Doctor Lin gasped. "A poisonous ice toad?" That's an extremely rare find.
Legend has it that it grows deep in the ice, and its body is covered with horrific tumors, making it impossible for ordinary people to touch it.
He gritted his teeth and said, "After returning to the palace, I will ask for your leave from the emperor. I will personally go to the frigid ice layer to find the poisonous ice toad. No matter what, I will heal your uncle's leg!"
Lin Yiwan guessed that her grandfather would say this, and he was willing to help her uncle and her do anything.
Even though they knew it was very dangerous, they still chose to go.
She spoke without hesitation: "Grandfather, you don't need to go to the extremely cold place. I have found the whereabouts of the poisonous ice toad. It is included in the dowry of Princess Li!"
Doctor Lin froze. He gave a wry smile and said, "You and her have a deep grudge. She will definitely not give it to you, right?"
Lin Yiwan nodded: "So I need Grandfather to cooperate with me to replace her poisonous ice toad with something else!"
As night fell, a carriage headed straight for Marquis Zhan Yi's mansion.
The next day, Princess Wueryun of Li State got married.
As the most virtuous lady of the highest rank in the dynasty, Lin Yiwan naturally needed to attend the ceremony.
She stood with Sang Qiutang and saw Wueryun, wearing a gorgeous pink palace dress, sitting on a colorful float.
Sang Qiutang lowered his voice and said, "I heard that this float was very expensive. It almost cost us all the flowers in our Sheng Dynasty!"
Lin Yiwan said calmly, "No matter how grand the ceremony is, she can't surpass the Queen!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
She didn't want to see Wueryun's smug look, he really deserved a beating!
Sang Qiutang caught up with her and asked, "Wanwan, has your Marquis sent any news back? Has he arrived in Lingnan City?"
Lin Yiwan nodded: "We're here, but we haven't found any trace of the bandits yet. We should have to wait two days!"
Sang Qiutang sighed, "I heard those bandits are too rampant. They rob caravans in broad daylight and take all the women and children away to the mountains. How despicable!"
Lin Yiwan said without hesitation, "Don't worry, they won't be able to keep going for long. My Lord is the God of War. It will be easy for him to wipe out the bandits!"
Sang Qiutang's eyes narrowed with a smile: "That's right, we are waiting for your Lord, the God of War, to return triumphantly!"
As soon as the two finished speaking, they saw a young palace maid hurried over and said, "Madam Hou, Miss Sang, the Queen invites you to the Spring and Autumn Palace to take your seats!"
Lin Yiwan subconsciously frowned. What was wrong with the Emperor? He had someone else in his harem, and why did he even bother with the pregnant Empress?
Don’t you know that when there are too many people around, things can easily get out of hand?
Without hesitation, she grabbed Sang Qiutang's wrist and walked quickly towards the Spring and Autumn Palace.
After not seeing her for many days, the queen has become plump and white.
Especially the waist is slightly raised, which makes it look more elegant and luxurious.
She was talking to *** at this moment, smiling, with a look of pampered freedom between her brows.
Seeing Lin Yiwan, she waved, "Wanwan, come over here!"
Passing everyone's envious gazes, Lin Yiwan brought Sang Qiutang and walked in front of the queen.
The two bowed respectfully and said, "Your servants, your servants pay their respects to the Empress, Your Majesty!"
The Queen and the Empress reached out and pulled the two of them up, saying, "No need to be so polite. There are too many people here. Let's go sit over in the pavilion!"
