1039 Chapter 1039 “Betting Status & Life“
This realization made Li Shi Ying blushed a little. The girl hurriedly stood up to picked the teapot and slowly pour it to the small cup on the table outside the circle glass. The cup was located a bit closer to Yan Fenghuang and since Li Shi Ying was in a hurry, she didn't bother to move it to Long Ao Zhen's place.
Nessie and her beasts would keep an eye on Yan Fenghuang anyway, there won't be a problem.
The girl poured the tea slowly and carefully. She didn't see Yan Fenghuang expression at the moment. The b*tch was currently having a celebration in her mind. A smirk formed on her face as she screamed out loud. Of course, in her heart.
'A chance!' The girl thought. She quickly moved her right hand and revealed something hidden under her sleeves. It was an odourless tasteless poison that couldn't even be detected by the silver needle. The girl moved her hand pretty quickly so no one even Li Shi Ying herself didn't realize what Yan Fenghuang was doing.
The girl sprinkles something to the tea that immediately dissolves in the hot water leaving no trace behind. That's right. The one she sprinkled was actually...a poison! Not to mention this wasn't any ordinary poison.
The poison was the exact same poison which almost killed the empress many years ago. The poison made with...Li Shi Ying's parent's recipe!
"Here it is" Li Shi Ying gave the cup to the empress but just as the empress received it, Nessie and her butterfly shouted at the same time. Nessie whispered while the butterfly spoke through telepathy.
[Sissy, that girl do something to the tea! I just saw she hide back something to her sleeve] Nessie spoke in worry. He keeps an eye on this girl but her movement was indeed so fast until he could only realize something was wrong after Yan Fenghuang retracted her hand.
"Mistress, I detect a lethal poison even effective for the dragons inside the tea! I can't detoxify it, please hurry and stop the empress" The butterfly Li Shi Ying has also warned the girl right after Nessie spoke.
The two of them looked extremely worried watching the empress hold the tea calmly not knowing that there was poison inside.
"Damn" Li Shi Ying kicked her feet to the floor feeling like she had walked right to Yan Fenghuang trap. This girl waited until it was time for the empress to drink tea! She made use of the empress habit to drink tea right after having a meal.
If she didn't know there was poison, the empress would surely get poisoned again and since she was the one who prepared the tea, she would be deemed as the culprit right away.
But if she stopped the empress from drinking the tea, what excuse does she had? The tea was too hot? That was weird. Yan Fenghuang could twist her words again. She couldn't move forward and couldn't step back too. Any steps she took would be a dead end.
What should she do? Pretend to slip and make the cup fell to the floor? But her seat was quite far from the empress! She couldn't do so, it would be too unnatural.
As Li Shi Ying bit her lips and thought hard until sweats began to form on her forehead, Yan Fenghuang was waiting for the empress to drink the tea but the woman still hasn't drink it. She was distracted by Long Ao Zhen's grandfather and so the cup was still in her hand.
This gave time for Li Shi Ying to think of a way out. She thought of every possible event once she stopped the empress from drinking. She could say there was a bug but it is winter. What kind of bug would fly around? Not to mention the table was filled with dragons.
Even mosquitoes wouldn't dare to approach. So really there wasn't any way out other than saying that the tea was poisoned! She knew that b*tch Yan Fenghuang would make use of her words to bring up the old case but…
She was already prepared. All she needed was the patience of these people. If they gave her a chance to defend herself, her plan would work but if they didn't...she was done for.
Let's...proceed anyway.
Li Shi Ying saw the empress was subconsciously about to put the cup on her lips. The girl immediately stood up and suddenly shouted making everyone attention were directed to her.
"Mother, stop! There's a poison inside the tea!" Li Shi Ying face was pale and her body was trembling as she said so. The girl looked like a scared rabbit making everyone took her words seriously.
"What? What's going on? Poison?" The empress hastily put down the cup with an ashen face. She had a trauma, a poison trauma so the moment she heard that there was another poison inside her tea, the woman almost fainted on the spot.
"Ying'er what's going on?" Hearing Li Shi Ying's word, Long Ao Zhen face turned stern. He knew that something was wrong for his bunny to say this. The girl had a butterfly beast that could detect poison so whatever she said should be true!
"There's a deadly poison inside the tea. My butterfly detected it" Li Shi Ying scanned her surroundings and saw that the emperor also panicked.
The time finally comes. Yan Fenghuang...this is the last battle...the bet is...her status and her own life!
