I don't want to be the favorite concubine of this palace anymore

Zhao Yuling's expression finally changed, but she still pretended to be very aggrieved and looked at An Muxi: "What are you doing? Don't you believe me? You and I have never had any conflicts, how could I hurt you?"

An Muxi rolled her eyes in her heart. Who knows? I am innocent too, okay? This Bai Lian sister wants to harm me for no apparent reason.

Seeing that she was still trying to deny it, An Muxi was too lazy to talk nonsense with her and said directly: "Don't you dare to eat? It doesn't matter. I added something to the tea you drank just now. You should have felt that you are a little flustered and short of breath, and have difficulty breathing, right?"

Zhao Yuling's face turned pale, and the maid beside her looked at An Muxi in panic and said, "My Lady An, if you harm others like this, the prince will not let you go if he finds out."

An Muxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've already told the prince."

Zhao Yuling and the maid were dumbfounded. Zhao Yuling was still in a better state of mind, but she still said in a panic, "Sister An, you must have misunderstood. I didn't mean to harm you. What kind of drug did you give me?"

An Muxi crossed her legs proudly and said sinisterly, "I don't have as much patience as you. I've given you the Seven Steps Powder, which means that if you don't take seven steps, you will bleed from all seven orifices and die."

Zhao Yuling was so scared that she sat there and dared not move. Her face turned pale and she asked in a tearful voice, "Sister An, what on earth do you want to do?"

An Muxi said: "Sister Zhao, I just want to know the truth. You gave me drugs to make me addicted. Who was behind this?"

"Now that you have been poisoned by my Seven Steps Powder, don't even think about fooling me. I didn't eat any of your poisonous cakes. You can't control me."

Zhao Yuling struggled in her heart. Although she had her own difficulties, if she didn't want to, that person couldn't do anything to her. After all, one wrong step leads to another.

But she didn't want to betray him, he was the light of her life.

Suddenly she remembered that in order to avoid being discovered, she had bribed Fang Yao's maid to help her contact people, so she could put the blame on that maid and Fang Yao.

Zhao Yuling finally spoke: "Actually, it was Fang Yao who asked me to do this. I just believed the gossip. She asked me to put the medicine in the pastries I made and send them to you. I had no idea what it was."

An Muxi was stunned. Zhao Yuling was really good at shifting the blame. She couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

"Since you said Fang Yao asked you to do it, then I will invite her to confront you as well."

Zhao Yuling felt uneasy, but she thought that as long as she refused to admit it, they would be able to find out that those things were indeed brought back by Fang Yao's maid.

Everything would be fine by then, so he nodded without showing any objection.

An Muxi was a little curious. Could it be that Fang Yao really asked Zhao Yuling to do this because she was dissatisfied with her?

She didn't want to worry about it anymore, so she said directly, "Jianying, come out, and have your people bring Fang Yao and her maid."

Jianying walked out directly with a few guards, and then looked at Zhao Yuling coldly. This woman was really eloquent and she put the blame on others with just a few words.

Zhao Yuling was surprised to find that there were several guards in the side hall. When she saw that the one leading the guards was Jian Ying, she felt a chill on her back and her heart was filled with uneasiness. Could it be that the prince already knew about her affairs?

Jianying ordered his men to bring Fang Yao over, and soon Fang Yao and the maid were brought over.

Fang Yao was confused and didn't know what was going on. She didn't notice that her maid was pale and covered in sweat.

After entering the main hall, Fang Yao saw Zhao Yuling with an unhappy look on her face, while An Muxi was sitting at the top with her legs crossed.

She said dissatisfiedly: "An Muxi, why did you ask the guards to bring me here? What's wrong with you, Sister Zhao? Did she bully you again?"

Zhao Yuling didn't look at her or say anything. Fang Yao asked doubtfully, "Sister Zhao, are you saying something? If she bullies you, we'll ask the prince to seek justice! I don't believe there is no justice in the Rui Palace."

An Muxi laughed out loud: "Fang Yao, you are still speaking up for your sister Zhao, but she has exposed you."

Fang Yao was stunned for a moment, then looked at An Muxi and said, "What do you mean by giving me away?"

The maidservant beside her was so frightened that she was trembling with fear and could hardly stand. When she saw those guards, she felt something was wrong, but she still had a hope.

But when she saw Zhao Yuling was also here, she knew that her act of helping Zhao Yuling carry things had been exposed.

An Muxi said directly: "Zhao Yuling said that you asked her to put drugs in the cakes she gave me. This drug is addictive. How do you explain it?"

Fang Yao felt like her CPU was about to burn out before she understood what was meant. She looked at Zhao Yuling in disbelief, "Sister Zhao, what do you mean by this? When did I ask you to drug her?"

Zhao Yuling bit her lip, raised her head and looked at Fang Yao, saying with grievance: "Sister Fang, you asked me to do this, why don't you admit it? Otherwise, why would I drug Sister An when I have no grudge against her?"

She knew the difference between the mastermind and the accomplice. Now, in order to protect herself, she could only sacrifice her friend's life rather than herself.

Fang Yao was also angry. She looked at Zhao Yuling with a flushed face and said angrily, "Zhao Yuling, I have always regarded you as my best sister and wanted to help you out everywhere. Is this how you frame me?"

Zhao Yuling was not to be outdone: "It's the medicine your maid has been sending me. If you don't believe me, you can ask her!"

Now Fang Yao finally looked at her maid. Seeing that her face was pale, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her body was shaky, she finally realized that something was wrong.

He went up and slapped her: "You slut, what on earth did you do behind my back?"

This maid was a servant girl she brought from home. She never expected that she would betray her. She was extremely angry.

The maid trembled and said, "Master, it was Concubine Zhao who asked me to contact the servant who delivered the garbage truck to the palace. I don't know what's inside."

Fang Yao was stunned after hearing this. This maid actually helped to get the medicine! Now she couldn't explain it clearly.

An Muxi had almost finished watching the show, and then asked the maid: "How many times did Concubine Zhao ask you to contact that servant? What did you do or what did you pass on? Tell me in detail."

Zhao Yuling was still unconvinced: "Sister An really wasn't ordered by me. She is Fang Yao's maid, how could she possibly listen to my orders?"

The little maid looked at Zhao Yuling with a bit of annoyance and said angrily: "The 50 taels of silver note you gave me is still under my bed. If you don't believe me, go and find it."

When Fang Yao heard this, she was so angry that she slapped the maid a few more times and cursed her for betraying her master and saying that she must die a horrible death.

Jianying winked at a guard, and the guard walked out. Jianying felt a little helpless now, as he was the leader of the prince's personal guards, and he was here to help a concubine judge a case.

It's just a small matter, but they have already investigated it clearly, but they still pretend not to know. No wonder people say three women make a drama, and there are many things to deal with when there are too many women.

After a while, the guard who went out came back with a fifty-tael silver note in his hand and nodded to Jianying.

An Muxi looked at Zhao Yuling: "Do you have anything else to say now?"
