After rebirth, she became the prince's favorite

Chapter 58: Losing Control, Going Crazy, Poisoning

Yao Mingjin was very sweet and immediately said, "Please rest assured, Queen Mother. I will definitely treat Fei'er very well and will never let her suffer any grievances in my presence."

The Queen Mother was even happier. "Please keep the jade pendant. This is your token of love."

The queen said with a smile, "Mother, so many young men and young ladies are here. Do you want to watch them play the piano or paint, or listen to them sing music or dance with swords?"

"Then let's just paint, sing and dance. I like something more lively."

The Queen said loudly, "Everyone, please come forward and show your talents. Those who can satisfy the Queen Mother will be rewarded handsomely."

Immediately, those who wanted to get the reward came out to perform.

Those who sang, danced, painted, and wrote poems all racked their brains to please the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother felt much better after watching the performances by young and energetic men and women.

Li Hexiong glanced at the crowd and saw an inconspicuous eunuch nodded and walked towards the empress dowager. A subtle and fragrant smell reached the empress dowager's nose.

The Queen Mother's eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, the veins on her forehead bulged, and she frantically grabbed Yang Yufei beside her, pulled out the hairpin on her head, and stabbed Yang Yufei's heart viciously.

Yao Mingjin was so scared that his heart almost jumped out of his chest, "Fei'er."

He quickly protected Yang Yufei behind him.

"All of you, die." The Queen Mother spoke in a sharp voice with astonishing strength.

Yao Mingjin was unexpectedly pushed away by him. The Queen Mother opened her mouth and bit Yang Yufei's shoulder hard, refusing to let go.

"Empress Dowager, please let go." Yao Mingjin felt extremely distressed when he saw his beloved girl's shoulder was covered in blood. He didn't dare to do anything to the Empress Dowager in public, so he felt very aggrieved.

Yang Yufei howled in agony, forcing her to use her trump card. The silver needle hidden in her fingernails quickly scratched the empress dowager's arm.

A numbing feeling came over her, and all the strength in her body seemed to be drained away. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted completely.

Yang Yufei felt like a piece of flesh on her shoulder had been bitten off.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and help the Queen Mother to Ningshou Palace, and call the imperial physician over immediately." The Queen said in a deep voice.

The palace maids around the empress dowager immediately hurriedly helped the person onto a soft stool and carried her back to Ningshou Palace.

Yao Mingjin asked worriedly, "Fei'er, how do you feel?"

"It hurts a lot." Who could have thought that the Queen Mother would suddenly go crazy without any signs? She was sober and kind before, but suddenly she seemed like a different person.

"Let's find a place to apply the medicine later." Yao Mingjin felt very distressed, but in the palace, it was not easy for him to show that he cared too much about her.

"There are more traps waiting for me. Just wait and see, my prince. Today is going to be a tough day for me."

Yang Yufei hated those people who did not regard her life as a human being, but in this place where imperial power was supreme, she could do nothing.

When they arrived at Ningshou Palace, the imperial physician took the empress dowager's pulse and examined her condition as quickly as possible.

"How is the Queen Mother?" the Queen asked with concern.

"Replying to the Queen, the Queen Mother's old illness has recurred. Her pulse is turbulent and there are signs of poisoning." The imperial physician answered truthfully.

Li Qingyun shouted in a shrill voice, "How could the Empress Dowager be poisoned for no reason? She must have been poisoned and framed."

Her hostile gaze fell on Yang Yufei, "Did you deliberately poison the Imperial Grandmother? You want to kill the Imperial Grandmother."

Yao Mingjin's face turned ugly. "Please be careful with your words, Sixth Princess. The truth of the matter has not been found out yet. You can't put all the blame on Miss Yang."

"Who else could it be besides her? Because the Crown Prince cancelled the engagement, she was resentful and deliberately poisoned Yang Yufei. She has a vicious mind."

"Prince Zhennan, you can't protect Yang Yufei just because she's your fiancée. This princess absolutely doesn't believe in coincidences. This woman is very powerful and vicious."

Yao Mingjin raised his voice, "Sixth Princess, please pay attention to your manners. Slandering others casually will damage the princess's reputation."

Li Qingyun snorted coldly and continued to persist.

"Mother, the Royal Grandmother is in a very bad condition now. Her face is all black and blue. You must not let this vicious woman go."

Yang Yufei was holding back her anger, but she was forcing herself to hold it back. "I didn't poison the Queen Mother, and the Sixth Princess doesn't have any evidence. We can't just accuse someone else."

"What more evidence do you need? The Empress Dowager was enjoying the singing and dancing, but she became ill and poisoned after sitting next to Yang Yufei. You are a troublemaker. No one will get good if they get close to you."

Li Qingyun looked at her fiercely, "If anything goes wrong, Grandmother, I will kill you."

"I said, I did not poison the Queen Mother. Queen, please send someone to investigate this matter thoroughly and find out who poisoned her."

Yang Yufei straightened her back. If they wanted to pin the blame on her, it would depend on whether she was willing or not!

At this moment, a majestic voice sounded from outside the door, "What happened to the Queen Mother?"

Li Qingyun cried very sadly, "Grandmother is ill, and the imperial physician found that she is poisoned. Father, it's all because of that vicious woman Yang Yufei. She holds a grudge against the Crown Prince for what he did, and is taking revenge on Grandmother."

Yang Yufei clenched her fists under her sleeves. "The Sixth Princess doesn't care about the Queen Mother's condition, but instead insists that I poisoned the Queen Mother. I don't understand what the princess's intentions are."

Li Qingyun's face froze, and she felt a little guilty. She stiffened her neck and continued, "I was just too worried about my grandmother's health, so I got so excited."

The emperor said in a deep voice, "Alright, stop arguing and see what the imperial physician says."

"What kind of poison did the Queen Mother take? Is her life in danger?"

The imperial physician said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has taken a small amount of arsenic. I have already prescribed a medicine. Her life will not be in danger."

"It was Yang Yufei who brought poison to murder the Royal Grandmother. The Royal Grandmother hasn't been ill for a long time. She is very clear-headed and in good spirits. Father, there must be something wrong with Yang Yufei."

Li Qingyun was aggressive and she was determined to kill Yang Yufei.

Li Yinhua frowned beside her, "Sixth Sister is so sure, as if she saw Yang Yufei poisoning me with her own eyes. Are you planning to pin the blame on Yang Yufei?"

"Why are you speaking for outsiders? Now the Royal Grandmother is sick and lying in bed unconscious. It's the Royal Grandmother who is suffering. Don't you care?"

Li Qingyun vented her anger on Li Yinhua. This woman was crazy for wanting to ruin her good deeds.

"I just don't want the real murderer who poisoned her to go unpunished. Yang Yufei is not that stupid. She has no reason to harm the Imperial Grandmother."

Li Qingyun's eyes widened in anger. "Why not? The Crown Prince and her brother broke off their engagement, so she holds a grudge, doesn't she?"

Li Yinhua directly hit Li Qingyun in the heart, "Then she should find a way to make the poison drink by the Crown Prince instead of poisoning the Empress Dowager."

"Even if Yang Yufei really wanted to poison the Empress Dowager, she shouldn't have chosen arsenic, or arsenic trioxide or ascension. Wouldn't these two poisons be more effective?"

Li Qingyun couldn't argue with Li Yinhua, his face turned blue and purple, "You just side with outsiders and don't care about the Royal Grandmother."

"Li Yinhua, you are a cold-blooded and heartless person."
