I died tragically in my previous life, and I want to be an empress in my next life
Chapter 208 Let’s see if anyone will believe in the dream that Pei Zhixuan told us!
When they returned to Yimei Garden, Yinping came up to them immediately, holding a cup of steaming hot tea in her hand. Pei Zhiyan was restless at the moment and needed to calm down, so she took the teacup without saying much.
She picked up the teacup and drank it in big gulps, as if she wanted to swallow all her anxiety and uneasiness along with the tea. This cup of Longjing tea was fragrant and mellow, flowing in her mouth, bringing a hint of warmth and tranquility.
Pei Zhiyan's mood calmed down a little, and she felt her breathing became more stable.
Putting down the teacup, Pei Zhiyan took a deep breath and tried to sort out the confusion in her mind. Pei Zhixuan's words were like an invisible sword hanging over her head, making her feel uneasy. She knew that she had to find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Yin Liu quietly observed Pei Zhiyan from the side, with a trace of worry in her eyes, and asked softly, "Miss, what did Concubine Xuan mean by her nonsense just now?"
Pei Zhiyan looked up at Yin Liu and couldn't help but smile. That's right, nonsense! As long as it can be proved that everything Pei Zhixuan said was nonsense, then her so-called dream would be nothing more than her imagination.
In this way, Xuanyuan Ping would also doubt her words and relax his vigilance.
"Spread the word that Concubine Xuan has been suffering from hysteria recently. Tell the people in Yuxiangxie to keep an eye on her and not to hurt the prince!" Pei Zhiyan ordered calmly.
Yinliu was confused, but did as she was told.
Pei Zhiyan was thinking about her next plan. She knew that more evidence and strategies would be needed to make Xuanyuan Ping completely believe Pei Zhixuan's delusion.
Rumors always spread quickly. Within a day, the servants in Prince Jing's mansion were already discussing Concubine Xuan's hypochondria.
On the second day, Pei Zhiyan cooked a bird's nest herself. She carefully selected the best bird's nest and stewed it slowly over low heat until it became soft and smooth.
After the cooking was completed, she took Yinliu to Yuxiangxie again.
There was an old woman guarding the gate of Yuxiangxie. When she saw Pei Zhiyan coming, she quickly stood up and saluted. Pei Zhiyan nodded lightly and stepped into the courtyard.
Since someone helped Pei Zhixuan deliver a letter to Xuanyuan Ping last time, Yuxiangxie's servants have been replaced. However, because Pei Zhixuan has fallen out of favor, Yuxiangxie itself has few servants, so it is convenient to replace them.
When Pei Zhiyan walked into the room, Pei Zhixuan was sitting at the table eating lunch. There was only a bowl of porridge, half a steamed bun and a plate of pickles on the table, which looked quite shabby.
"Is this all you eat for lunch, sister? It's so light." Pei Zhiyan said sarcastically.
Pei Zhixuan paused for a second when she heard Pei Zhiyan's words, then lowered her head and continued to drink her porridge silently. She knew that Pei Zhiyan came here just to laugh at her.
Pei Zhiyan motioned Yin Liu to put the bird's nest on the table, "Sister, you are weak, you should nourish yourself. This is the bird's nest porridge I made myself, please try it."
When Pei Zhixuan heard what Pei Zhiyan said, she couldn't help but glance at the bowl of bird's nest porridge. It was carefully cooked with the best blood swallows, the porridge was crystal clear and exuded a faint fragrance.
"Sister, you haven't eaten such delicious bird's nest porridge for a long time." Pei Zhiyan continued.
Pei Zhixuan now eats porridge every day. She hasn't had such food for a long time. However, she doesn't believe that Pei Zhiyan would be so kind as to come all the way to bring her bird's nest porridge. She sneered in her heart, thinking that Pei Zhiyan's sudden show of goodwill must be a fraud.
"I appreciate your kindness, sister, but I am not worthy of it." Pei Zhixuan said coldly.
"This was made by the princess herself." Yin Liu stepped forward and said.
Pei Zhixuan sneered and looked up at Pei Zhiyan. As soon as she left Yuxiangxie yesterday, there was a rumor in the mansion that she was suffering from hypochondria. How could she be kind to herself? Who knows what medicine was put in this bird's nest porridge.
"Oh? Does my sister suspect that this porridge is poisonous?" Pei Zhiyan's tone revealed a hint of playfulness and provocation.
Pei Zhixuan said nothing, just looked at her coldly.
At this moment, Pei Zhiyan suddenly chuckled. She walked to Pei Zhixuan's side and whispered, "Sister, there is no poison in this porridge. It only shows my concern for you. Since you are not worthy of it, I will give it to Yin Liu."
"Thank you very much, Princess." Yin Liu said with a smile, walked forward, picked up the bowl of bird's nest porridge, and started eating it in big mouthfuls, finishing it up in a moment.
She wiped her mouth with satisfaction and said to Pei Zhiyan, "It tastes so good. The princess's cooking skills are getting better and better."
Pei Zhixuan glanced at them in surprise. Could it be that there was really nothing wrong with this bowl of bird's nest? If there was a problem, they wouldn't have let Yin Liu drink it in front of her.
Yinliu is Pei Zhiyan's confidante. She grew up with her and they have a deep relationship as master and servant. Pei Zhixuan is well aware of this.
"You are in for a treat. Let's go. Your kindness will be wasted if you stay here." Pei Zhiyan smiled and said to Yin Liu.
After saying that, the two turned and left.
After leaving Yuxiangxie, Pei Zhiyan went straight back to Yimeyuan, but Yinliu pulled the gatekeeper aside.
She took out a delicate little paper bag from her bosom and handed it to the old woman, with a sly look in her eyes, "You know what to do, right?"
The old woman took the paper bag with a flattering smile on her face, "Miss Yinliu, don't worry, I know what's going on."
Yinliu snorted coldly and turned back to Yime Garden.
Back at Yime Garden, Pei Zhiyan sat in the exquisite flower hall, playing with an exquisite jade cup in her hand, with a barely perceptible sneer on her face.
Yin Liu walked quickly into the flower hall, bowed and said, "Miss, everything has been arranged."
Pei Zhiyan put down the jade cup in her hand, nodded slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.
There was indeed nothing wrong with today's bowl of bird's nest porridge. She also knew that Pei Zhixuan would be on guard against her, so she brought this bowl of food deliberately to provoke her. She was really not worthy of enjoying such a good thing.
However, everyone in Yuxiangxie is his now, so it would be a piece of cake to add some ingredients to Pei Zhixuan's food. Those are the good things he carefully developed for her.
After taking it for a few days, one will gradually fall into a trance-like state, unable to extricate oneself, as if one is really suffering from hypochondria.
Pei Zhiyan curled up the corner of her mouth in a sneer. By then, let's see if anyone will believe in the dream that Pei Zhixuan told her!
