Chapter 114: Human Life is Worthless (Part )
Jiang Wanyue waved her hand and asked them to leave.
Mier came forward eagerly.
"Master, do you want me to find someone to keep an eye on them?"
"No need."
"What if they don't do their job well and resort to fraud to deceive others, wouldn't that delay your work, master?" Mi'er thought a lot.
She said it with a serious look on her face.
Jiang Wanyue couldn't help laughing.
Xiuchun also shook her head and laughed, explaining for Jiang Wanyue.
"That's not important. What's important is their attitude and approach. The master wants to see if they are capable enough to be used."
Jiang Wanyue gave Xiuchun an approving look and continued.
"If they can really find out the details of everyone in the East Palace within half a month, they are definitely talents and can be reused. But if they really have such ability, they would not be so anxious to join me. Don't the ladies in the palace have vision? Gold will shine wherever it goes."
Mi'er clasped her fingers in front of her chest, her eyes sparkling.
"Then master, do you think that this servant is also gold?"
Jiang Wanyue laughed again and pinched her face.
"Yes! Our Mi'er is very capable and is also gold."
Mier cheered, turned around happily, and smiled from ear to ear.
After Mi'er went out, Xiuchun shook her head and sighed.
"This Mi'er is too unstable."
"You can stay true to yourself when you are with me. Doesn't that mean I treat you well? I hope you, Xiuchun, can be as happy as Mier."
Jiang Wanyue pushed the pillow back, leaned sideways, looked at the pots of flowers and plants on the windowsill, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
These pots are not daffodils, but mint.
I'm afraid no one would grow mint in winter.
Just now, the gardener looked over here frequently, wanting to say something, but did not dare to.
Maybe it's because I'm wondering why Jiang Liangdi likes such ordinary green plants.
Jiang Wanyue plucked a mint leaf, put it to her nose and smelled it, then asked casually.
"Have those two pots of daffodils been sent to Cheng'en Palace?"
Xiuchun nodded slightly.
"It was delivered yesterday, but it was broken by the Crown Princess."
Jiang Wanyue was not surprised at all.
"Have someone send a few pots of lilac over in a couple of days. If she fights again, replace them with other flowers, such as lilies, osmanthus fragrans, or night-blooming orchids. The more fragrant, the better."
Xiuchun tensed up, replied "yes", and went out to make arrangements.
Jiang Wanyue lowered her eyes and played with the mint leaves in her hand.
If you smell flowers with strong fragrance too much, you will feel more or less uncomfortable, such as chest tightness and shortness of breath, or headache and sore throat. But as long as you ventilate regularly, it will not be a big deal.
But now it is winter, and the doors and windows are closed most of the time. The Crown Princess is under house arrest under the pretext of "recuperating", and cannot leave her room. As time goes by, she becomes depressed and becomes more sensitive to various smells.
Lu Qingshuang, how long can you hold on?
Two days later.
Although Cheng'en Hall is just a "hall", its space is no smaller than Yichun Palace and Yiqiu Palace.
The palace servants brought several pots of blooming lilacs into the inner room.
Lu Qingshuang's pale face had an unnatural sallowness as she stared at the eunuch in the lead.
The eunuch was unaware of the situation and just followed the instructions in a serious manner.
"Jiang Liang Di was worried that you, the Crown Princess, might be unhappy because of your illness, so she specially ordered us to bring some flowers and trees here. These lilacs are the best blooming in the greenhouse, and only the Crown Princess has them, not anywhere else!"
Lu Qingshuang glanced across the two rows of flower pots, her eyes filled with doubt and surprise.
The prince even dislikes her, so how can Jiang Wanyue still be so kind?
After delivering the flowers, the eunuch led the palace maids out.
Lu Qingshuang held on to the chair and walked step by step to the floor-standing cover, looking outside through the window frame.
She is really sick.
These days she was anxious, worried, panicked and afraid. All kinds of emotions surged up in her heart. She couldn't sleep at night, couldn't eat during the day, and she felt a little dazed.
She wanted to go out and see her son and daughter, but she was surrounded by people sent by the prince, who stared at her and would not allow her to step out of the palace.
Not to mention seeing her son and daughter, she couldn't even send a letter to the Lu family.
No news from outside could be brought in.
She wasn't even aware of the situation in the Eastern Palace.
Without manpower, even if she is the Crown Princess, she can only be a blind and deaf puppet.
At the mercy of others.
Lu Qingshuang pressed her chest and suddenly felt a little tight. Her heart was beating very fast, making her feel a little breathless.
She was terrified and shouted outside.
"Tui Er! Tui Er!"
A little maid with a green headband ran in.
"My Lady Crown Princess, are you feeling unwell?"
Lu Qingshuang took several deep breaths and nodded.
Cui'er hurried forward, took out a small sachet from her purse and handed it to Lu Qingshuang.
"You smell this, maybe it will make you feel better."
Lu Qingshuang took a deep breath, almost stuffing the sachet into her chest.
After a while, her expression finally relaxed a little.
Cui'er poured her a cup of tea. When she turned around, she saw the extra lilac flowers in the room and couldn't help but scream.
"Huh? Why are there so many lilac flowers?"
Lu Qingshuang's heart, which had just calmed down, suddenly became tense again.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with this lilac?"
Cui'er explained hesitantly.
"This flower looks harmless, but I've seen lilacs, lily of the valley, and daffodils put together in the greenhouse before. Not long after, the lily of the valley and daffodils withered! I heard from the greenhouse manager that lilacs and tulips are very poisonous when taken together."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Qingshuang screamed.
"Move away! Move away!"
She shouted a few times, grabbed the teapot on the table and threw it at a pot of flowers, then pushed another pot to the ground.
With a loud clang, all the flower pots were broken into pieces.
Lu Qingshuang stepped on the mud and held Cui'er's hand tightly.
"Someone wants to harm me! Jiang Wanyue...she wants to poison me! Go and report to His Highness!"
Cui'er looked embarrassed.
"But His Highness will never see me! He won't believe me."
"Then find Yeer!"
"The eldest son went to the Imperial College..."
"And Yu'er! Yu'er is still here! Find a way to find Yu'er and ask her to ask Ye'er to come back. With Ye'er here, I don't think anyone will dare to harm me!"
Lu Qingshuang's eyes were captivatingly bright.
Cui'er bent her knees.
"I will go and deliver the letter to the princess right away."
Under Lu Qingshuang's hopeful gaze, she walked out.
As soon as she walked out of the hall, Cui'er immediately lifted up her sleeves and saw several scarlet scratches. She hissed twice and looked back into the hall with cold eyes.
Sister, your revenge will be taken soon.
