The palace is quiet, and the empress of the cold palace is acting as a demon

Chapter 52

Qin Wan coughed lightly: "Girls, did you two miss the point? Isn't it the question of why that pot is poisonous that we should care about?"

Liuying's face turned pale instantly: "You mean Mrs. Jin Yu wants to harm you?"

Yuan Ying's complexion also changed: "Your Majesty, this subordinate should go and tell His Highness King Ning."

"Wait," Qin Wan called to Yuan Ying who got up and was about to leave, "This is just our unfounded guess, we can't make a decision based on a few words of information. Even if the tea set is really poisonous, Jin Yu just needs to say that she Without knowing it, there is no way to be sure whether she really intends to harm me. Moreover, the goldsmith was poisoned during the melting of gold, and I can't be idle and bored to melt the pot by myself, so I want to poison me to death , should not use this method.”

Liu Ying said: "Your Majesty, what should we do then?"

Qin Wan looked at Yuan Ying: "Go and find out the truth of the matter first? Find out how the goldsmith got poisoned, what are the symptoms, and it's best to find out what kind of poison he got."

"Yes." Yuan Ying got up and quickly left the cold palace.

Qin Wan stood by the window with her arms folded, thinking about this matter carefully.

Liuying frowned and asked: "Madam, are you really not going to tell His Highness King Ning about this?"

Qin Wan shook his head: "He is now planning to attack Nanliang and needs the wealth of the Jin family, you can tell from his attitude towards Jin Yu and Jin Xibao, no matter whether he really likes Xibao or not, at least on the surface he still tries his best Act like a father. If there is a gap between him and the Jin family because of such a set of golden teapots, no matter what the result is, once the trust is shaken, it will be very detrimental to the later cooperation. So wait for Yuan Yingcha first Let’s figure out what to do next.”

Liu Ying bit her lip and said bitterly: "Anyway, it's true that Mrs. Jin gave you a set of poisonous tea sets. We still have to guard against her in the future."

Qin Wan took a deep breath: "I'm also drunk, do they all have to push hard at me? Why do women make things difficult for women..."

Just when Qin Wan was secretly worrying, there was a light knock on the door outside the cold palace.

"Sister? Sister?" A childish and cute voice came into the cold palace through the crack of the door.

Liu Ying went to open the door, and Xi Bao, who was wearing a small velvet hat, appeared outside the door with a smile on his face holding a bag of fried chestnuts.

He grabbed a handful of chestnuts in his little hand and happily ran to Qin Wan, "Sister, I'll give you some chestnuts."

Qin Wan knelt down, and did not vent his anger on Xi Bao because of the golden pot, but calmly took the chestnuts from him: "Wow, where did you get the chestnuts?"

Xi Bao grinned happily, showing his cute little canine teeth: "Uncle Bai said that Daddy brought it to me from outside the palace. Ah, no, mother said that I can't call him Daddy, but Father Wang."

Liu Ying frowned dissatisfied: "This kid changed his words too quickly."

Qin Wan patted Xi Bao's head and said to Liu Ying, "Go get him some pastries and snacks."

"Niang Niang," Liu Ying showed dissatisfaction, "You are too kind."

Qin Wan shook her head: "Children don't understand anything between adults. He gives me chestnuts, and I give him cakes. It's just reciprocity."

Qin Wan took Xi Bao's hand and walked into the house, poured him a cup of warm water, and put it in front of him: "Eating chestnuts will make your mouth dry, drink some water. Sister Liuying will bring you pastries to eat later."

Xi Bao looked at the water glass in front of him, scratched his head and said with a smile: "Last time I ate the candy given by Sister Liuying. When I went back, I was scolded terribly by my mother. My mother told me not to let me eat what others gave me outside. food, and cannot drink water given by others.”

Qin Wan was stunned for a moment, then picked up the cup and poured himself a cup, then drank it down: "Look, am I okay after drinking?"

Xi Bao still shook his head and said: "My mother said that the poisoned people have antidote, so it's fine."

Qin Wan: "...what else did your mother tell you?"

Xi Bao rolled his eyes and said: "My mother said that in this world, I can only trust my mother, and I can't listen to or believe what other people say."

Qin Wan smiled and asked, "Then why do you still come to my place?"

Xi Bao smiled and said: "Although mother said that, but I think sister, you are very good, I like you, because of you I found daddy, ah no, it is the father, so I think sister, you are a good person."

Qin Wan put on a straight face on purpose: "Little friend, you are too simple to judge whether I am a good person or not just because of this incident. Maybe I am a big villain?"

Xi Bao thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter if my sister is a big villain, then I will be a little villain, and we will be bad together, isn't that all right?"

Qin Wan was amused by his words, and stretched out her hands to rub his little cheeks: "Okay, then we've made a deal, I'll be the big villain, you'll be the little villain, and we'll destroy the world together and do all kinds of bad things in the world, how about that?" ?”

"Okay!" Xi Bao felt that Qin Wan's idea was really great, and danced happily.

"How can you teach children like this?" Ning Yi's voice suddenly came from the door.

Before Qin Wan could react, Xi Bao dropped the chestnut and rushed towards Ning Yi's arms: "Daddy!"

"From now on, I will be called Father King." Ning Yi corrected him.

"Father King Daddy!" Xi Bao put his arms around Ning Yi's neck, kissing him very dearly.

Qin Wan folded his arms beside him, raised his eyebrows, and said with a cocked mouth, "I didn't expect you to be very popular with children."

Ning Yi put down Xibao and asked Liuying to take him to play in the yard, and smiled at Qin Wan: "If Xibao is your child, I will love him even more."

Ning Yi didn't say "we" or "me and you", but only said "your", which made Qin Wan slightly startled.

"Liar, who will believe it?" Qin Wan rolled his eyes.

Ning Yi didn't say much, just smiled: "I'm going to Liyang again in a few days, do you want to go with me?"

"Why are you going again?" Qin Wan didn't understand.

Ning Yi said: "The Liyang Jin family has some matters that I need to come forward to assist Jin Yu to deal with. It just so happens that I also want to know the actual situation of the Jin family's property."

Qin Wan folded her arms and said, "You and Jin Yu take your son back to your mother's house. It would be an eyesore for me to follow, so I won't go."

Ning Yi saw that she was unhappy, and took out a golden nine-petal hairpin from the sleeve with a smile: "It's been a while since I made this, and I wanted to give it to you as a New Year's gift when I was in Linglong Pavilion." You didn't expect it to take so long."

Qin Wan squinted at the golden hairpin in Ning Yi's hand, and suddenly heard the sound of chin, chin's cash register, and she took it from Ning Yi's hand without any politeness, her eyes were as bright as stars in the sky: "I didn't expect you Know how to do this skill! This is too beautiful!"

Ning Yi introduced: "There is a thin sheath on the tip of the hairpin, which is worn on weekdays. When in danger, take off the thin sheath. Inside is a thin needle that has been quenched with poison. You can use it to defend yourself."

Qin Wan was taken aback, and moved his hands away from the hairpin: "Poison? If it doesn't work well, it's dangerous for me, what if I get stabbed?"

Ning Yi said: "It's not a deadly poison, it just paralyzes the enemy instantly. Look carefully at that Suzaku's eyes, it's the antidote."

"Brother, isn't your design very reasonable?" Qin Wan pouted and said, "If I stab myself, people will be paralyzed, how can I pick out the antidote and eat it?"

Ning Yi frowned for a while, and then had to admit: "You are right, if you pay me back, I will improve."

When Qin Wan heard that he wanted to take it away, she immediately protected it with both hands, and refused with her whole body: "No need, it's good."

Ning Yi smiled: "Since you have accepted the gift, come with me to Liyang."
