Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge
Chapter 403 The Princess's Maid (7)
Actually, Yulan had already been secretly watching Qi Ning while she was helping her wash up and change.
Qi Ning knew what she was looking at. Last night, when the original owner and Yun Jing entered the palace, Yu Lan saw the original owner's face. She must have been confirming her identity.
Especially in situations like these, it's crucial not to feel guilty.
As long as she acts confidently and righteously, she can make the other person question their existence.
Qi Ning suddenly looked up at Yu Lan and asked her, "Why are you always staring at me? Is there something on my face?"
Yulan was startled and quickly lowered her head: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, this servant didn't see anything."
She thought to herself that she must be overthinking things.
It was dark last night, so she couldn't see very clearly.
The mistress before us could only be the princess of Chu. Just look at her temper just now. She dared not drink the contraceptive soup bestowed by His Majesty, and she was not polite to the chief eunuch by His Majesty's side. She even said those offensive words to His Majesty. Such courage is not something an ordinary person can do.
Even His Majesty didn't question her identity, so there can't be any mistake. Surely even His Majesty couldn't have mistaken her for someone else.
Qi Ning put down her chopsticks: "Alright, I'm full. Have someone clean up and leave."
After saying that, Qi Ning got up and went into the inner hall.
"Yes, ma'am."
Yulan thought she had offended her master and dared not say or look any further.
After entering the inner room, Qi Ning suddenly remembered that she hadn't taken any contraceptives yet. She had no intention of secretly getting pregnant. Using her son to climb the social ladder would probably not work with Yue Zeyuan, and might even backfire.
Qi Ning really didn't like the contraceptive soup that Yue Zeyuan had sent over. She had long planned to take the contraceptive medicine provided by the system, which was at least safe and wouldn't harm her body, but she hadn't had time to take it yet.
Only then did she remember to ask the system for it.
However, when Qi Ning thought of the contraceptive, she suddenly remembered that the original owner's body had also been poisoned by Chu Xiyue.
The poison needs to be treated with the antidote on time to prevent it from taking effect.
Chu Xiyue's plan was to have the original owner keep an eye on Yun Jing at all times, report Yun Jing's news in Yue Kingdom to her regularly, and then have someone send over the antidote.
Qi Ning wouldn't be coerced by Chu Xiyue. She directly asked the system, "Can you provide an antidote to completely cure the poison that Chu Xiyue gave the original owner?"
The system quickly replied, "Sure, host."
The system had stated long ago that it could provide any poison that was beneficial to the mission's progress and not directly fatal.
Qi Ning was very satisfied. She spread her hands and said, "Then give me the antidote and the contraceptive."
"Okay, host."
The next instant, a light flashed in Qi Ning's outstretched palm. After the light disappeared, two pills appeared in her palm: one an antidote and the other a contraceptive.
Qi Ning took the medicine.
Although taking the antidote would free Qi Ning from Chu Xiyue's threats, Qi Ning still didn't want to alert Chu Xiyue and her brother Chu Hanfeng. He had to keep them in the dark about the true situation in Yue Kingdom.
Qi Ning glanced outside and, seeing that no one was in the hall, had the system check again to confirm that the environment was still relatively safe. Only then did she find paper and pen and write a small note.
The note simply read: "Everything goes well."
Then she opened the window, took out the bone whistle that Chu Xiyue had given to the original owner, and blew it.
That whistle was specially made by the Chu royal family. The sound it produced could not be heard by outsiders; only specially trained carrier pigeons could hear it.
This special whistling technique was a royal secret of the Chu Kingdom, unknown to anyone except the Chu royal family. Therefore, the Yue Kingdom was not on guard against it, which is why Chu Xiyue dared to let the original owner of this body use this method to transmit messages.
Not long after, a pigeon flew over and landed by the window.
Qi Ning rolled up the small piece of paper, stuffed it into the bamboo tube on the pigeon's leg, and then released the pigeon.
The pigeon flew out, circled once above the Yue Kingdom's palace, and then flew towards the Chu Kingdom.
Qi Ning watched the pigeon disappear and then casually closed the window.
Since that day, Yue Zeyuan has never come to Yaohua Palace to look for Qi Ning.
According to the system, Yue Zeyuan's men have been searching the capital recently, and Shen Yixiao and Yun Jing are unable to leave and can only hide in the city.
Judging from this, it's only a matter of time before they get caught.
Qi Ning felt she couldn't just sit and wait for her fate. Since Yue Zeyuan wasn't coming to find her, she would go and show herself in front of him.
So, on this day, Qi Ning had the system check Yue Zeyuan's whereabouts, and then said to Yulan, "The weather is nice today, why don't you take me out for a walk?"
Qi Ning had been staying in the palace for the past few days, and suddenly suggested going out for a walk, which caught Yulan off guard.
"What, is it that I cannot visit your Yue Kingdom's royal palace? Is there something shameful about it?"
“Of course not,” Yulan quickly said. “Your Majesty is certainly free to move around the palace.”
"Then let's go, what are you waiting for?"
Having said that, Qi Ning walked out first.
Upon seeing this, Yulan immediately followed.
Yue Zeyuan has been quite busy lately, and he hasn't gotten used to going to the harem yet, so he hasn't gone to Yaohua Palace.
Today, he and several ministers rode horses at the palace's horse farm and discussed some official business.
After the matter was concluded, the ministers left the palace, while Yue Zeyuan returned to the palace in the imperial carriage.
Unexpectedly, on his way back to the palace, he happened to see two people in the pavilion in the Imperial Garden.
Eunuch Xu also saw the two people in the pavilion ahead. He turned around and reported, "Your Majesty, it is Consort Ning and her maid Yulan."
Yue Zeyuan nodded slightly: "Stop."
Upon hearing this, Eunuch Xu immediately raised his hand to signal the eunuchs carrying the imperial carriage to stop.
Yue Zeyuan looked at the two people not far away and asked, "What has she been doing these past few days? Has she made any unusual moves?"
Eunuch Xu replied, "Your Majesty, according to Yulan's report, Consort Ning has been staying in the palace these past few days, only interacting with the palace servants we arranged. She has not come out to walk around and there has been nothing unusual. Today should be the first time she has come out since entering the palace."
Yue Zeyuan responded, his gaze fixed on the figure. He saw Qi Ning sitting in the pavilion, her slender waist curving gracefully.
Yulan stood to the side and introduced to Qi Ning: "Your Majesty, this pavilion is called Shangxin Pavilion, and the lake in front of it is called Bibo Lake. In the summer, sitting in this pavilion and enjoying the cool lake breeze is the best thing to do."
Qi Ning nodded slightly: "The scenery is indeed quite nice."
Yulan said with a smile, "Your Majesty, you should go out more often. Don't stay cooped up in the palace all day. Come out and enjoy the flowers, or take a walk around."
Qi Ning hummed in agreement: "You're right."
She stood up, holding onto the railing, took two steps forward, and then turned her head to look around.
As she turned around, she happened to meet Yue Zeyuan's gaze directly in the distance.
When Yue Zeyuan saw that Qi Ning had noticed him, before he could react, she suddenly turned around as if she hadn't seen him, and pulled Yulan away.
"Let's go and explore somewhere else."
"Huh? Your Majesty?" Yulan asked, puzzled.
"stop!"
They hadn't taken more than a few steps when Yue Zeyuan called out to them.
Yulan turned around in alarm and hurriedly knelt down to greet Yue Zeyuan: "Greetings, Your Majesty."
She lowered her voice again to remind Qi Ning, "Your Majesty, His Majesty is here."
Yue Zeyuan had already dismounted from the imperial carriage and was walking towards them.
"What, why are you hiding?"
Qi Ning then turned around. Without bowing, she simply said, "Who's hiding? Can't I just say I didn't see you?"
