Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife Chapter 71
Yin Hong was still thinking when she returned back into the residence. The moment she entered the door, she was called by Lady Jin. "When you were sending Mu Yunyao out, did she say anything?"
"Replying to Lady, she, without rhyme or reason, reminded me to take good care of you. She also said that you should not eat too much sweet foods.
Lady Jin’s face blackened. She cautiously looked at the food on the table. After a while, she spoke, "Go and get Doctor Chen. Wait, don’t get him. Get a change of clothes and wrap up some of these foods. Go to a more isolated clinic and get them to see if there is anything strange about these foods. "
Yin Hong was flabbergasted, "Lady, do you suspect that there is something unclean in them?"
"I can’t say for sure either. Now go. " Lady Jin’s heart was thumping nervously. Although Mu Yunyao was young, she was very clear-headed. Since she was able to taste out the origin of the water, then she must not be wrong when she mentioned that the snack was a bit bitter. Plus, she had reminded Yin Hong to take care of her. Adding all of this up, it was clear that Mu Yunyao was trying to tell her that there was something wrong with the food.
From a very young age, Lady Jin had always loved to eat sweet foods. After marrying Cao Yunnian, her own family specially sent a few chefs to cook up those sweet foods for her.
A few days ago, the chef that was in charge of the flour and rice fell sick. She gave him some silver for him to return home and get better. The new chef was sent by her own family. At that time, her heart had warmed from their gesture, but if there really is something wrong with that food, then……
After a panicky two hour period, Yin Hong arrived in a hurry. When she saw Lady Jin, she fell to her knees with a ‘thump’. "Lady, Lady……this snack……snack……"
Lady Jin’s hands clenched. "If there is any problem, say it. "
"This servant had gone to many different clinics. At first, no one wanted to say the truth. Then, this servant noticed that they had very weird expressions. Thus, I gave them a huge sum of gold, resulting in one of them answering me. That doctor said that there was Chuan Ceng grass in it. The Chuan Ceng grass is a cooling grass, small amounts of it won’t pose too much of a problem. However, if one eats it for a long period of time, she will……"
"Will what, say it!"
"It will cool the womb, causing women to be unable to become pregnant. " After saying that, Yin Hong immediately knelt even lower, not daring to raise her head.
Lady Jin tried to calm herself for a long time. Then, she spoke, "Get up. Do not say a word about this matter, do you understand?"
"Yes, Lady. "
Chuan Ceng grass, Chuan Ceng grass……
Lady Jin closed her eyes, her lips formed a bitter smile. Being unable to bear children was her life’s greatest regret. Although Cao Yunnian did not say anything about it, but he surely did mind deep in his heart. She figured that this was her fate and helped him get some concubines. She also treated these concubines well.
But she never would have imagined, that the fact that she was unable to birth children was because someone did not want her to!
She opened her eyes with force, a cold light flashed across her eyes. She clenched her fists so tightly that her fingernails were stained with blood. "If I ever find out who the person is……the person who did this to me, I will definitely not show them any mercy!"
When Mu Yunyao returned back to her residence, she told her Mother specifically to keep the box in a safe place. She did not tell the disciples that she had their slave contracts. Although they all seemed like decent people, but people’s true nature will always start to leak out after an extended period of time. Just this short span of time is not enough to know their personalities, leaving some backup for herself is a good choice.
After two days, Yin Hong arrived once again. When she saw Mu Yunyao, she immediately did a greeting, one where she even bent her knees. Her respectful actions shocked the ten disciples. "Miss, Lady has invited you to her residence. "
