1046 Chapter 1046 “Want To Frame Her? Bah!“
The way Li Shi Ying threw shade at Yan Fenghuang while still looked cute and adorable successfully made the guests laughed.
The atmosphere got lighter than before.
"Hahaha! This lady is amusing" an old man laughed at Li Shi Ying action. The girl had been passive-aggressive toward Yan Fenghuang yet she still only sounded like a curious and naive child.
What the girl said was all in the form of a question so there's no definite answer to it but the guests knew the real answer. The girl doesn't need an answer as...it was already obvious!
Now the guests slowly sided to Li Shi Ying. One by one used their brain once for a while and finally suspected Yan Fenghuang more than Li Shi Ying. That girl also could be counted as a suspect according to what Li Shi Ying said!
Realizing that the public opinion had begun to waver with just a few speeches from Li Shi Ying, Yan Fenghuang hurriedly spoke to defend herself. "Then what about this. You immediately know that there's a poison inside the tea. I don't believe your beast can do it, it's just a divine beast! It means you know there's poison because it's actually you who put it in!"
Yan Fenghuang caught on her breath as she spoke quite fast and loud. The girl seemed shaken that she was accused as the culprit too.
Hearing Yan Fenghuang argument, the guests fell into a deep silence. At this point, they didn't care whether the beast actually could detect poison or not. It was clear that Li Shi Ying question before was more logical.
What if the beast really could detect poison? Lower realm too had a lot of unknown and unique beast just like what that intelligent young man said before. For Li Shi Ying to expose her own plan by telling the empress there was poison inside the tea…
Wasn't that dumb? If her purpose was to act as the hero she still had so many ways to do it, not by using a risky method like now. Because Li Shi Ying stopped the empress from drinking the tea, she was now accused as the culprit.
If she really did the culprit she won't tell the empress anything about the poisoned tea. She would just watch as the empress died from the poison and escape in the middle of the chaos. That girl was rumoured to be the second type of translator, she should be able to teleport away quickly.
A lot of guests had known that Li Shi Ying was a translator. How could they didn't check her background before? Of course, they did but, no one found out about the girl's family background. It turned out the emperor had sealed it making no one was able to found the fact.
Except for Yan Fenghuang. This girl acted faster than the emperor so she could still get her hand on the information.
"So Lady Yan doubted my beast ability. How about this senior Zhu become the judge? Please put any kind of poison inside several teas served here." Li Shi Ying walked toward the table and began to pour tea to every cup available on the table. There were 7 cups left excluding the empress' teacup.
Li Shi Ying's action startled Old Zhu. The old man hurriedly asked. "Young lady, what do you mean by this? I can't possibly put poison in royal family's tea and...me become a judge of what? I..." Old Zhu wiped his forehead again while trembling like a scared rat. This girl wanted him to poison one of the teas belonging to the royal family?
What if he was accused of poisoning attempt?? No, he didn't want to!
"Just use non-lethal poison" Li Shi Ying laughed seeing the old man trembled in fear. The girl seemed to know what the old man thought about.
"....Alright but please explain more about what I should do" The old man glanced at the emperor and when he saw the emperor nodded, he agreed. The Emperor allowed him after all!
"Senior Zhu picks any tea to put poison into, I will not look at senior Zhu and my butterfly won't see it too. She will be watched by others. I'll put her inside a cage and cover the cage with a black cloth"
Li Shi Ying began to explain the experiment she was going to do. The girl scanned the surrounding before she continued.
"If my butterfly landed on the tea with poison it means she indeed can detect poison, if she landed on the wrong tea then her ability is all fraud and I can be accused as the culprit, how is it? "
The girl had a confident smile on her face making everyone subconsciously wanted to support and believe in her. What an interesting test! This human was challenging Lady Yan to prove her words which said that the beast couldn't detect poison.
To make it fair, Li Shi Ying even offered herself to be blindfolded. That way she won't know which tea had poison and thus won't be able to tell her beast by using telepathy.
The offer sounds very fair but actually, since Li Shi Ying had so many other beasts that could tell her even when she was blindfolded, the test wasn't that far. Still, the girl won't let her beasts spoil her plan.
Her butterfly can indeed detect poison! Want to frame her? Bah! Learn for 1000 years more before challenging her in a battle of wits.
