She said unwillingly: "Your Majesty, this is the real poisonous ice toad!"
Emperor Sheng An waved his hand and said, "I don't recognize it. I'll let Doctor Lin identify it!"
Doctor Lin tried his best to suppress the excitement in his eyes and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, this time it's real, but this black tumor is extremely poisonous. I am worried that if it splashes out, it will hurt innocent people!"
Emperor Sheng An pondered, "Then go to the side hall next door and make the medicine. This is no joke. Who knows if it will jump around everywhere after it comes out!"
After hearing what he said, everyone couldn't help but get goosebumps all over their body.
Some concubines were almost hiding at the door. They felt that the risk of attending the banquet was too great.
At this time, Lin Yiwan spoke up: "Due to the toxicity of the poisonous ice toad, I will go and help Grandfather. This time, after we boil it out, we can also help the old lady test the medicine first!"
After hearing this, Concubine De felt a pang in her heart. She looked up and saw the gloomy face of Emperor Sheng'an, and swallowed her sarcasm.
Emperor Sheng An said, "Madam, you are so thoughtful. This time, you are testing the medicine on Old Madam Du. The Huaiyang Marquisate will surely be very grateful to you. I will ask them for a reward for you when the time comes!"
Marquis Huaiyang's vision went dark and he almost fell to the ground.
What? They have to pay a reward?
It was obvious that his mother had suffered a great crime and was almost taken away by the King of Hell.
Lin Yiwan ignored everyone's strange looks and quickly followed Doctor Lin to the side hall.
She carefully took out the poisonous ice toad and hid it in the mechanism box that had been prepared long ago.
Then she put the antidote in and asked Doctor Lin to make a medicinal soup.
She drank a few sips first, and then asked him to take it to Mrs. Du.
But when she looked up, she saw someone flash by the window.
She curled the corners of her lips and hid the box containing the poisonous ice toad into her sleeve without hesitation.
When she returned to the banquet hall, Sang Qiutang rushed forward and asked anxiously, "Wanwan, I heard from Doctor Lin that the poison in your body has been cured. Is that true? You don't feel unwell anymore, do you?"
Lin Yiwan took her arm and said, "Well, don't worry, I'm fine now!"
She subconsciously looked at Madam Du, whose complexion had improved: "Look, isn't Madam Du sitting up too?"
Sang Qiutang breathed a sigh of relief: "I was really scared to death!"
Lin Yiwan comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'm lucky!"
Wueryun was extremely upset. That was the elixir of immortality that could help her escape successfully, but now it had entered Lin Yiwan's stomach.
So angry!
She curled her lips in annoyance, and then she heard Cui'er whisper in her ear: "My lady, there is a girl who calls herself Cao Aiwen who wants to see you!"
Wueryun blinked. "Cao Aiwen? What is she doing secretly?"
Cui Er reminded: "Your Majesty, do you still remember that she has a deep grudge against Lin Yiwan? I think she wants to plot against her this time!"
Wueryun didn't hesitate and walked out quickly.
After being beaten with a stick in Tingyu Pavilion last time, Cao Aiwen almost lost half his life.
Now that she had finally recovered a little, she rushed to attend the banquet in the palace.
She was determined to take revenge on Lin Yiwan and would make sure she didn't suffer any consequences.
Just now she saw with her own eyes that she hid the poisonous ice toad in her sleeve. She must have deliberately deceived Concubine Yun.
If she were to tell the truth, she would definitely die!
Thinking that she would be beaten to death, a sick and hideous look appeared on Cao Aiwen's face.
Wueryun walked out and saw it, and was shocked.
She said without hesitation: "Why are you like a ghost?"
Cao Aiwen suppressed his discontent and said, "Empress Yun, I just discovered a huge secret. Lin Yiwan didn't use the poisonous ice toad as medicine, but hid it in her sleeve. I'm afraid she has other uses for it!"
Wu Eryun was shocked. She grabbed Cao Aiwen's wrist and asked, "Is it true? Are you sure you saw it clearly?"
Cao Aiwen answered without hesitation, "Of course I saw it clearly from outside the window. She was able to remove the poison because she put the antidote inside. In other words, she was the one who set up the whole situation from beginning to end!"
Wu Eryun cursed angrily, "Poisonous woman, she is indeed a vicious and venomous woman. She actually tried to trick my poisonous ice toad and even dared to falsely accuse me of poisoning her. She is really capable!"
Without any hesitation, she took Cao Aiwen's arm and walked into the hall.
Cao Aiwen struggled hard: "Empress Yunfei, what are you doing?"
Wu Eryun glared, "Of course I want you to testify against her. You have no choice. From the moment you decided to run to me and expose her, you have been fighting her with your life!"
There was a flash of determination in Cao Aiwen's eyes. Yes, either she died, or he died.
After all, the thirty thousand taels of silver were like a mountain pressing down on her head. Her father had given up on her, and even her grandmother no longer liked her and even wanted to use her marriage to exchange for the silver.
She was unwilling to let her life be ruined by Lin Yiwan, so she had to fight for it no matter what.
Thinking of this, she stopped struggling.
When the two of them reached the main hall, Wueryun spoke first, "Your Majesty, please help Yun'er. Someone is deliberately trying to steal Yun'er's sacred object. Their heart is damned!"
Emperor Sheng An was greeting the Saint Maiden, but when he saw her still making a fuss, he couldn't help but frown subconsciously.
He said in a deep voice: "Your sacred objects have already been used as medicine, why are you still obsessed with this matter?"
Wueryun's eyes were red as he spoke, "Is it so difficult for Yun'er to seek justice? If I had known this earlier, even if my father had said that the Emperor of Sheng Dynasty was a wise and benevolent ruler, I would not have agreed to come here for marriage!"
She turned to look at the Saint: "Aunt, I regret it. Please take me back?"
Before the Saint Girl could speak, she was interrupted by Emperor Sheng An: "Tell me, how did she cheat you of the holy object?"
Wueryun then replied, "The poisonous ice toad wasn't used as medicine, but was hidden on Lin Yiwan's body. I have a witness, Miss Cao. She saw it with her own eyes!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and all eyes fell on Cao Aiwen who was standing next to her.
Cao Aiwen's face flushed with excitement. She had never received such attention before.
She felt that she had done the right thing and bravely stood up to expose Lin Yiwan's plot to deceive Concubine Yun.
She mustered up her courage and knelt down to salute: "Your Majesty, I saw with my own eyes the Marquis' wife hide the poisonous ice toad in her sleeve!"
Emperor Sheng An's sharp eyes fell on her, carrying a terrifying chill.
He shouted, "Cao Aiwen, do you know what you are saying? Do you think you can bear the consequences of this?"
Cao Aiwen replied firmly, "I take personal responsibility for my own actions. I only hope that Concubine Yun can get back her poisonous ice toad and that Old Madam Du can understand who is truly harming her!"
