The old imperial consort patted Yun Chujiu’s back and then shouted sternly, “Lowly servant, tell me, who exactly instructed you to poison little jiu to death?”
Xi Hua kept kowtowing and said in grief and indignation, “Old imperial consort, ninth young miss, this servant really did not poison you. Even if this servant was given a hundred guts, this servant would not dare to poison ninth young Miss!”
Zheng Shi coldly snorted from the side, “You might not dare to harm little jiu, but the master behind you would dare! Tell me, who was the one who instructed you?”
Zheng Shi’s back faced the old consort as she inconspicuously stretched out three fingers. She felt that Xi Hua would definitely understand her intentions.
Xi Hua’s heart was filled with monstrous hatred. If she were to climb up and bite the He Shi, the He Shi would not be able to do anything to the Zheng Shi. However, her family would definitely be killed by the he shi to vent their anger. The Zheng Shi was truly too vicious!
Xi Hua suppressed the hatred in her heart and could not help but kowtow to defend herself. “Old Princess Consort, ninth miss, this servant was really wronged! This servant really did not poison you!”
Yun Chujiu’s eyes lit up. “Grandmother, I don’t think Xi Hua is lying. Perhaps she really did not poison you. Maybe that Hong Yuan was mistaken.”
Hong Yuan immediately said, “Ninth miss, it can’t be wrong. I saw her sprinkle the medicinal powder into the soup with my own eyes.”
Xi Hua glared at Hong Yuan angrily. “Since you said you saw me sprinkle the medicinal powder in the soup with your own eyes, then what soup did I get this afternoon?”
Hong Yuan looked at Xi Hua with disdain. “I saw it clearly. It was a bowl of winter melon rib soup.”
“Are you sure that I got the winter melon rib soup?”
“Of course I’m sure. I saw it with my own eyes. How could I Be Wrong? !”Hong Yuan said with certainty. Granny Sun had already told her that it was winter melon rib soup, so it was naturally not wrong.
Xi Hua sneered, then, she looked at Yun Chujiu. “Miss Jiu, you heard everything, right? This Hong Yuan is simply full of nonsense! I had given you bamboo sun chicken soup in the afternoon, but she said that I had winter melon pork ribs soup. She is clearly framing me.”
Zheng Shi almost laughed out loud. Could it be that Xi Hua was trying to act more convincing? So she said that on purpose? Seeing that she was putting in so much effort, she could be rewarded with a good coffin.
The old consort was about to speak when Yun chujiu said with sparkling eyes, “Haha! I knew Xi Hua wouldn’t betray me! Aunt, it seems like there’s something wrong with that red couple of yours!”
Zheng Shi was dumbfounded. “Little Jiu, are you confused? Didn’t Xi Hua bring you winter melon rib soup?”
The old princess looked at Yun Chujiu in confusion. Little Jiu couldn’t be spouting nonsense to absolve xi hua of her crime, right? Although being kind was a good thing, being too kind was stupid.
“Ah! Here’s the thing. Xi Hua did bring me a bowl of bamboo sun chicken soup for lunch. When I came here, I thought the soup was really delicious, so I went to the big kitchen and thought of bringing a few more bowls for dinner.
p-A- n-d-A-n-0-v-e-1、(c)om I didn’t expect that when I arrived at the kitchen, I found that the winter melon spareribs soup smelled even better, so I brought two more bowls. When I arrived here, I heard from my aunt that there was something wrong with the bamboo sun chicken soup, so I brought out the winter melon spareribs soup.
Things were a little complicated. Anyway, Xi Hua brought back the bamboo sun chicken soup for me at noon. If you don’t believe me, I’ll show it to you. ”…”
Hei Xinjiu took out a bowl of bamboo sun chicken soup from her storage ring and drank a few mouthfuls:
“Is it okay to take a look? I Told You Xi Hua wouldn’t harm me! Auntie, that Hong Yuan was obviously ordered by someone to frame Xi Hua. You’d better interrogate her properly!”
