Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 939

Just as they two were talking, Chen Miaosi rushed in again. Her face was flushed with heat because she had traveled so many times.

"Master only sent me two herbs. I tried to conserve them when making tea. Now I only have this little," Chen Miaosi said in a low voice and handed the remaining green leaves to Yun Shang. Then she took some chrysanthemums from Qian Zhuo behind her, raised her head and looked around for the tea cup, "Where is the cup?"

Pei Lan quickly took a cup and handed it to her. She quickly dipped the chrysanthemum into the teacup, and passed the cup to Yun Shang. Yun Shang took it and asked Pei Lan to pour hot water into the cup. The chrysanthemum bloomed in the cup. It was golden, and the nameless herb was decorated with a touch of green. It was breathtaking.

However, Chen Miaosi was not in the mood to appreciate such a beauty. She looked around and asked anxiously, "Where is the little mouse? Is it ready?"

Yun Shang finally came to her senses. She was talking to Luo Qingyan and forgot about it. She smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I'll ask Chen Ke to get it right away."

Then she told Qian Zhuo to hurry out of the inner hall to ask Chen Ke for it.

Chen Ke went to look for the mouse, but Chen Miaosi felt uneasy. She stared at the chrysanthemum tea in the cup and bit her lips, with a touch of doubt in her eyes. And she was afraid that Yun Shang might find out something, she then looked away in a hurry.

Soon enough, Chen Ke came in with a mouse cage, "I only caught one mouse. Your majesty, is that enough? If not enough, I'll catch two more."

Yun Shang smiled and waved her hand, "That's quite enough."

Seeing the mouse was brought in, Chen Miaosi quickly stood up, picked up the teacup and walked to the mouse cage. Yun Shang could tell that Chen Miaosi was afraid of the mouse, but she just gritted her teeth, took a spoon from Pei Lan, scooped out a small spoonful of tea from the cup and fed the mouse. The mouse only drank a little and the rest was poured onto the cloth in the cage.

Seeing how anxious she was, Yun Shang hurriedly said, "Don't worry. Qian Zhuo, Go and help Dr. Chen."

Qian Zhuo obeyed and was about to take the cup and spoon from Chen Miaosi, but she dodged and said, "No, I can do it myself."

Yun Shang replied, "Okay, you can feed it by yourself. But I'm afraid it won't take long for you to pour away all of them to feed that way. How about just pour all the tea into the small glass in the mouse cage, just as before we did."

Chen Miaosi said nothing, but did as Yun Shang said. Then she sat quietly aside and watched the mouse drink up the tea bit by bit.

This time, the mouse reacted very quickly and fiercely. It staggered and fell into the cage, with blood in its mouth and nose.

Yun Shang's eyes darkened at once. She looked at Chen Miaosi indifferently. Chen's face was pale and her feet were a little unsteady. She quickly held the table and managed to stand straight. "How could it be? How could it be possible?" she asked.

Yun Shang thought for a while and asked softly, "You are also proficient in medical skills. I heard from the wet nurse that you were drinking chrysanthemum tea and mint tea before. Didn't you notice anything wrong?"

Chen Miaosi's lips turned pale and her body trembled slightly. She opened her mouth for a long time before she said in a trembling voice, "Master said in the letter that this herb can increase the effect and poison a lot. Besides, Master has only sent me two herbs. Thinking that they must be very rare, I let the wet nurse drink them. Besides, didn't your majesty also say that I picked chrysanthemums for you to make tea? A few days ago, I also gave some tea to Qin Yi and asked Qin Yi to make tea for your majesty. Later, I asked Qin Yi about it. Qin Yi said she did make tea with it."

After a long pause, Chen Miaosi went on, "How did I know? How did I know... There is something wrong with that herb. I haven't read about it in books."

Yun Shang felt pity for her because it seemed she was suffering a great blow. She smiled and said, "I know you have a deep relationship with your master, and I couldn't accept it for a moment. You can go downstairs and have a rest. You look pale and don't think about it too much. Go to have a sleep first."

Chen Miaosi nodded she was absentminded. She straightened up and walked towards the door. As soon as she reached the door, she turned around and bit her lips. After struggling for a long time, she said, "Now it's clear that it has nothing to do with the nanny. She is just a victim. I'm an accomplice and I should be more responsible. Can you let go of the wet nurse, your majesty?"
