The Reborn Princess Has Turned Evil

After all that had happened, Consort Li had come to trust Jing Anle completely, and she immediately said to Qingyu, "Go and invite Imperial Physician Liu over!"

"Yes."

Since the last time someone sent medicine to Consort Li under the guise of Jing Anle, Imperial Physician Liu has been in charge of taking care of Consort Li.

At this moment, Consort Li felt a chill run down her spine just looking at the medicine packet. She gently stroked her belly, knowing that she could no longer withstand any more storms.

……

Jiying Palace.

Jing Anle left without a word, but the class still had to continue.

Luo Wei and Xia Tingfu naturally headed to the classroom, leaving only Qi Zhi and Jing Rou behind.

"Princess, are you injured?" Qi Zhi asked with concern.

Jing Rou shook her head, her eyes glistening with tears from her recent crying, making her look like a delicate little rabbit, which aroused Qi Zhi's desire.

"Thank you for your help earlier, Prince Qi. Actually, Princess Anle did not mean it."

Although Xiao Heng was on the roof, he was completely blocked by a large tree. Although Qi Zhi and Jing Rou could not see him clearly, he could see Qi Zhi and Jing Rou very clearly.

Qi Zhi smiled and said, "You have a kind heart, but such a personality makes you easy to be bullied." He looked into Jing Rou's eyes, and the greed in them seemed to want to devour her.

"after……"

"Hmm?" Qi Zhi finished speaking, and Jing Rou looked at him in confusion.

Qi Zhi was already tall, so he simply lowered himself, making Jing Rou look petite and delicate. He whispered in Jing Rou's ear, "If you ever need me in the future, just ask."

Can'er wisely lowered her head and turned her back.

The way these two were so intimate that anyone unaware of the situation would think they were a couple, whispering sweet nothings to each other.

"Prince Qi..." Jing Rou blushed at his warm breath and uttered a few words in an intimate tone.

Xiao Heng, watching from the rooftop, shook his head. These two were truly unscrupulous.

……

Rong'en Palace.

"Imperial Physician Liu, how is it? Is there anything bad in this medicine packet?" Consort Li asked anxiously, eager to know the answer, while Jing Anle beside her was also waiting for the result.

Physician Liu paused in his hand holding the medicine packet, then cupped his hands and said, “Your Majesty, although this medicine has a strong fragrance, upon careful examination, I found a musk in it. It would have been difficult to detect without a thorough examination.”

"What, musk?" Consort Li exclaimed in surprise.

Even though Jing Anle and Consort Li were not knowledgeable about pharmacology, they knew the harmful effects of musk on women. At best, it could damage a woman's body; at worst, it could make it difficult for her to conceive or even cause a miscarriage.

Consort Li almost lost control and threw the remaining two medicine packets far away. Who is the culprit behind this?

Seeing that things were not going well, Jing Anle waved his hand at Physician Liu and said, "You may leave now!"

"Yes."

Qingyu quickly helped Consort Li sit down and said, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. You should take good care of the prince in your womb."

Yes, she couldn't act so impulsively. Consort Li took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

"This time, we owe you a great debt to the princess again. But the gifts were sent by Consort Lin. If it's not Consort Lin who wants to harm me, then who is it?"

As Jing Anle said before, putting aside Consort Lin's personality, she wouldn't be so foolish as to directly give the things to Consort Li. After all, although Consort Li is not favored, she still has a family. She wouldn't risk her family's lives alone.

“Your Majesty, the Emperor has few children. Now that you are carrying the Emperor’s child, there are many people who envy and are jealous of you, except for Consort Lin,” Jing Anle said.

Yes, Consort Lin wouldn't be that stupid. If Consort Li hadn't discovered the problem with the medicine packet, then if the imperial fetus couldn't be saved, Consort Lin would naturally be implicated, while the real culprit could remain uninvolved and reap the benefits.

"What a brilliant two birds with one stone!" Consort Li said indignantly.

With so many concubines in the palace, Consort Li was indeed undecided. "Who could it be?"

Jing Anle smiled faintly and said, "Since this matter originated in Consort Lin's palace, it should naturally be investigated from there!"

"If Your Majesty wants to know the real culprit, then you should pretend that today's events never happened. As for those medicine packets, have the palace servants make a few more identical ones, filled with some common herbs."

Consort Li understood Jing Anle's meaning almost instantly: this was a case of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!

……

Jing Anle was riding in a sedan chair towards Yunqing Palace.

Jing Anle felt that this road was getting more and more remote and further and further away from her destination.

"Princess?" Afang asked.

"what's up?"

"Why did the princess hit Can'er this morning? The princess already knows she's one of ours!"

Jing Anle leaned back in his chair and said, "Only in this way will Jing Rou not suspect Can'er if something happens in the future."

"I see, Princess. You are truly amazing."

Although Jing Rou is hateful, she is not stupid. If there is any disturbance, she will first suspect the people around her.

Last time I came, there were many palace servants here to collect medicine packets, so it was still quite lively. Today, it feels extremely deserted, and there isn't even a gatekeeper.

Jing Anle and Afang did not head towards the main hall, but instead went to the pharmacy they had visited before.

Sunlight streamed in through the windowpane, falling on Consort Lin's skirt. She was busy organizing medicinal herbs and didn't notice anyone behind her. As she moved, the sunlight fell on her shoes.

"Your Majesty?" Jing Anle paused for a moment before calling out.

Upon hearing the sound, Consort Lin paused, then turned around and saw Jing Anle.

"Princess?" she asked, puzzled at first, then quickly bowed. "Greetings, Princess."

Jing Anle stepped forward to help Consort Lin up, saying, "Your Majesty, there's no need for such formalities."

"Dongqing?"

At Lin Fei's call, Dong Qing came out from the inner room. She was also taken aback when she saw Jing Anle. "Greetings, Princess."

Jing Anle nodded. "Get up!"

Seeing Jing Anle's sudden visit, Dong Qing was also puzzled. She had gone to Rong'en Palace today, where the princess was, but now the princess had come to their Yunqing Palace. This was really hard to figure out.

"Prepare some tea and snacks in the main hall," Consort Lin instructed.

"Yes."

Consort Lin looked at Jing Anle and said, "Please sit in the main hall for a moment, Princess. I will change my clothes and come immediately."

She was dressed simply today, which was fine, but there were some stains on her clothes, so it wouldn't look good to meet guests.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to rush. Please sit comfortably for a while."

After they finished speaking, they smiled at each other, and Jing Anle followed Dong Qing to the main hall to wait.
