Chapter 442 – Killing by Poison

Mo Youyou never thought that Xia Die would offend the emperors of both countries, and now that she was taken away by Yin Seep Shang, although he didn’t interact much with her, Mo Youyou’s sixth sense was very accurate. At the very least, it would not be as obvious as the Cold Moon Pond. Or could it be that Yin Qingzhang had hidden it too deeply? Abandoning his thoughts, Mo Youyou turned and looked at Helian Yi.

She believed in Helian Yi’s ability, and upon seeing his resolute expression, Mo Youyou’s heart that was just hanging in the air instantly calmed down. After Helian Yi instructed Qian Bi to take good care of Mo Youyou, he hid in the shadows to protect Mo Youyou. After all, his current identity was a secret guard that was assigned to Mo Youyou by the Cold Moon Pond.

Qian Bi supported Mo Youyou and slowly walked towards the direction of the Embroidery Palace. Mo Youyou told Qian Bi that they were not in a hurry and that they were walking slowly. Qian Bi understood, and her footsteps slowed down.

In the Queen’s chamber, the maidservant Qingzhu stood behind Shen Qing Yan and helped her tie her hair up. Shen Qing Yan held onto a jade hairpin and stared at it for a long time, when Qingzhu saw this, she asked affectionately: “Empress, this servant will help you put it on.”

Shen Qingyan shook her head and smiled, “No need, Green Bamboo, do you think this jade hairpin looks familiar?”

Upon hearing Shen Qing Yan’s words, the bamboo shoot turned to look at the jade hairpin. The jade hairpin was carved out of white jade with goat fat. Although it was simple, it was meticulously crafted. On it was carved a lifelike phoenix tail, which was especially exquisite. Qing Zhu regained his senses and looked at Shen Qing Yan, feeling that this jade hairpin did not seem to be suitable for his Master.

Seeing the expression on the bamboo in the mirror, Shen Qing Yan’s face changed, and she asked coldly: “If you want to say something, then say it. I will forgive you for your innocence!”

Green Bamboo hesitated for a moment. Under the pressure of Shen Qingyan’s cold gaze, he carefully spoke, “Return to Empress, this hairpin servant can’t remember where I’ve seen it before. It’s just that …”

Seeing the green bamboo stammer, Shen Qingyan lost her patience, “Just what? “Speak!”

When Xiao Lan saw this, she broke out into a cold sweat for Green Bamboo, but Green Bamboo had been by the Empress’s side for so many years and had never committed any grave mistakes. He also had the deep love and trust of the Empress, so the reason why the Queen Empress was so angry today was probably because of the banquet set up by the Emperor for Xia Die!

Thinking of this, Xiao Lan instantly felt relieved. Although the Queen Empress had a bad temper, she still took good care of the two of them. Green Bamboo gave her a look, signalling her not to anger the Queen. Green Bamboo met Xiao Lan’s gaze, pursed her lips, then turned to Shen Qing Yan and said: “Reporting to Empress, I just feel that with your status, this hairpin does not match your temperament.”

After saying that, Qingzhu lowered her head, not daring to look at Shen Qing Yan. After a while, he thought that Shen Qing Yan would get angry, but who knew, he suddenly heard Shen Qing Yan sneering, her mood was exceptionally cheerful, “Good, good, well said! “Reward!”

Green Bamboo raised his head and looked at Shen Qingyan, puzzled. She turned around and looked at the green bamboo that was supporting her. With a hint of fierceness flashed across her eyes, she turned to the green bamboo and said: “This hairpin was specially made by me two days ago with orders from the Emperor to give it to Xia Die.”

After hearing Shen Qingyan’s words, the bamboo shoot came to a realization. No wonder the hairpin looked so familiar. Only, “Empress, please forgive this humble servant’s stupidity, I don’t understand what you mean.”

Shen Qingyan passed the hairpin to the bamboo and said indifferently: “This hairpin can poison an ox to death!”

Just as she said that, her hand trembled, and she almost dropped the hairpin to the ground. When she saw Shen Qing Yan’s cold gaze, she hurriedly grabbed onto the hairpin, but her entire body was trembling uncontrollably.

Shen Qing Yan snorted lightly, “Don’t worry, the poison won’t kill you!”

When the bamboo heard this, it calmed down. She frowned and looked at Shen Qingyan, “Empress, what do you mean?” Alright, she’s just a servant. I really don’t understand what Empress’s intentions are.

“Take advantage of tonight’s banquet, order someone to infiltrate the Glass Palace, and exchange Xia Die’s hairpin for it!”

Only then did the green bamboo understand. She stood still as she stared at the white jade hairpin in her hand. How could such a small thing poison a cow to death? Just thinking about it sent a chill down his spine. Just then, Shen Qing Yan reminded him coldly, “Why are you still in a daze? Xiao Lan, accompany me to the Embroidery Palace! ”

“Yes, Empress.”

When Mo Youyou and Qian Bi arrived not far away from the Embroidery Palace, they saw that it was covered with red lights. Two rows of maids wearing pink palace uniforms leaned forward slightly, as if they had already been waiting for a long time, and greeted Mo Youyou respectfully.

From afar, a group of maidservants cried out in unison, “This servant greets young lady.”

Qian Bi and Mo Youyou looked at each other, and just as they were about to step forward, a familiar seductive voice came from behind, “Yo, isn’t this little sister?!”

Qian Bi looked at Mo Youyou, seeing the killing intent in Mo Youyou’s eyes, she knew that the woman behind her would not hold back tonight. With a faint smile in her eyes, Qian Bi slightly smiled and stood behind Mo Youyou. Mo Youyou then slowly turned and walked in the direction of Shen Qing Yan, indifferently speaking, her emotions did not fluctuate at all.

“Xia Die greets elder sister.”

At the very least, in Mo Youyou’s eyes, Shen Qing Yan was the same as the aunty next door. She clearly had a face that no one could see, but there was a gentle smile on her face, a smile that made people want to puke but pretend to like her. Mo Youyou could not help but admire Shen Qing Yan’s acting skills. Her harem was like a stage, she entered the stage instantly!

“Quickly get up. Sister is pregnant, so there is no need to be so formal when meeting sister. “Oh yeah, how is little sister’s body these two days?”

Mo Youyou caressed her lower abdomen and pursed her lips with a smile, “Very good, big sister is worried about you. “It’s all thanks to the few sets of medicine that Sister ordered Doctor Zhang to prescribe that day. Otherwise, this child would probably be dead by now.” With that said, Mo Youyou looked at Shen Qing Yan with her sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.

Mo Youyou was only reminding Shen Qing Yan not to use such a messed up royal medicine to prescribe medicine to frame her. She did not touch a single bit of Zhang Yu’s medicine, Shen Qing Yan had definitely investigated thoroughly into this matter, if she had really touched a single piece of imperial medicine at that time, she would have lost her child long ago.

After Shen Qing Yan heard Mo Youyou’s words, she was startled for a moment, then suddenly covered her mouth and laughed: “What are you saying, sister will naturally always keep you in her heart. After all, you are the woman that our Emperor dotes on the most, and the child within your womb is the only flesh and blood of His Majesty.
