Chapter 1171
"Father, the Queen Mother was so eager just now. They were all misled by the evil slave Bai Cui! Now the truth has been revealed. It must have been the evil slave Bai Cui who poisoned the Queen Mother because she did not want to serve the Queen Mother!"
Seeing that everyone was silent, King Wei had no choice but to step forward to whitewash Queen Wei.
"Queen Mother, my mother has been filial to you since she entered the palace. She has dedicated herself to you and taken care of every detail. You can see it. Then you should understand that my mother will never want you to die!"
King Wei looked at the Queen Mother pleadingly.
Emperor Wu'an was very filial. As long as the Queen Mother was unwilling to pursue the matter further, that would be the end of the matter for today.
The Queen Mother was helped by Emperor Wu An to sit down. Although she had been "in a coma" these days, her health was better than before thanks to Ling Yu's health pills.
But thinking about how well she treated King Wei and Queen Wei, Queen Wei dared to instruct Bai Cui to poison herself in order to deal with Ling Yu.
The Queen Mother's heart was completely cold. Her eyes fell on the faces of King Wei and Queen Wei, and she said coldly and majesticly.
"The Ai family has eyes and is not stupid. They can see everything clearly!"
"Bai Cui, you speak for yourself. The Ai family can't control others, but they can control you. If you tell the truth, the Ai family will allow you to have your body intact. The crime is not as bad as yours!"
Bai Cui had collapsed on the ground. After hearing the Queen Mother's words, she forced herself to stand up and saw King Wei giving her a warning look.
Bai Cui pursed her lips, lowered her head and began to think.
Queen Wei indeed promised herself glory and wealth, and said that the matter was settled and that she would leave the palace after a while and become a concubine to King Wei in the future.
She had seen glory and wealth in the palace, how could she be willing to go home and live a miserable life as an ordinary person!
She couldn't resist the temptation and betrayed the Queen Mother!
But now that the matter has been exposed, should she bear all the blame alone and let King Wei and Queen Wei escape?
If she admits it, she will die!
If she doesn't admit it, she will still die!
It may even affect your whole family!
"There is no perfect solution in this world!"
The Queen Mother seemed to have seen through Bai Cui's thoughts, and raised her lips sarcastically: "Do you think the Ai family has become too old and has become soft-hearted when reciting the Buddha's name?"
These words immediately frightened Bai Cui, and Bai Cui's body started to tremble.
She has been in the palace since she was a child and followed Nanny Wei to serve the Queen Mother.
The deeds of the Queen Mother when she was young were what Nanny Wei loved to talk about most. How could she not know that this Queen Mother, who looked kind-hearted, was a truly cruel person.
When she was pregnant with Emperor Wu An, she fell off a cliff and had no food or water. She fed the premature Emperor Wu An with her own blood and survived the rescue.
She accompanied the Supreme Emperor to conquer the world and took the lead. Without some means, how could she survive under the encirclement and suppression of thousands of troops.
If they really want to kill themselves, the methods of Queen Wei and King Wei are not enough for the Queen Mother!
"Queen Mother, this slave deserves death!"
Bai Cui trembled on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "It's... Queen Wei ordered the slaves to poison you!"
"Bai Cui, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Queen Wei was so shocked that she could no longer calm down. She was so angry that she was about to rush over and slap Bai Cui in the face, but before she could take two steps, she was stopped by Concubine Shao's two nuns.
Bai Cui didn't dare to look at Queen Wei, so she mustered up the courage to do all the moves.
"Queen Wei promised the slave, and after the completion of the matter, the slave will be allowed to leave the palace and enter the palace of Wei Prince as a concubine!"
"The first poison was given to the slave by Queen Wei's Aunt Zheng. She said that the poison was colorless and odorless. Even Princess Yi and Tang Ti couldn't find out what the poison was! They would never suspect the slave!"
"Yesterday Princess Yi came to the palace to see the Queen Mother. The slave was afraid that she would cure the Queen Mother and testify against the slave, so she quietly went to report to Queen Wei. It was Queen Wei who gave the slave the second poison!"
"Queen Wei said that the Queen Mother has repeatedly favored Princess Yi and will only do bad things if she lives... It would be better to die!"
