Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 259
Chapter 259 Datura Flower
A dangerous light flashed through Yun Xiao’s eyes!
Damn it! Yun Yao actually used poison on herself!
That elegant fragrance was the fragrance of Datura.
Datura’s entire body was filled with poison, and it also contained a large amount of musk in its branches and leaves. Not only could it cause people to faint, it could also cause people to hallucinate.
“Fourth sister, what’s wrong with you?” Seeing Yun Xiao push her away, Yun Yao’s expression changed slightly. She quietly put away the handkerchief in her hand and looked at Yun Xiao worriedly.
Yun Xiao covered up the shock and anger in her eyes and said, “I just remembered something, so I’m a little anxious.”
“Oh? What’s the matter? Why don’t you tell me, Fourth Sister? Maybe I can help Fourth Sister solve it.” Yun Yao looked at Yun Xiao with a gentle expression, as if she was really thinking about Yun Xiao.
If she didn’t know who Yun Yao was, Yun Xiao would have believed that Yun Yao was really doing it for her own good, but she couldn’t help but praise in her heart. She didn’t expect that Yun Yao’s acting skills would become even more perfect after a while.
He clearly wanted to devour her alive, but he still had to endure her disposition.
Since that was the case, Yun Xiao wanted to see who could act better.
Yun Xiao’s eyes flickered as she chuckled and said, “When Third Sister wiped my sweat just now, the smell of that handkerchief made me feel familiar. To make Third Sister laugh, it was precisely because of this fragrance that I almost lost my nature and ruined my reputation last time.”
Hearing Yun Xiao’s words, Yun Yao’s face suddenly turned pale, green and white. She was constantly afraid that Yun Xiao would discover the secret in the handkerchief. She unconsciously grabbed the handkerchief. “What happened afterwards?”
Yun Xiao pretended not to recognize the nervousness in Yun Yao’s words and smiled softly. “Later, who knew that this medicine would not work on me? I woke up in less than a cup of tea when I was unconscious. It seems that the medicinal properties of this medicine were too bad. After I was rescued, I was doubtful and lacked medical skills. Do you know what the medical book said?”
When Yun Yao heard this, her heart became even more nervous. Moreover, she also had a bad feeling in her heart, “What did you say? Fourth sister, hurry up and say it.”
Yun Xiao pretended to think for a moment and did not look at Yun Yao. She frowned and continued, “The medical book says that this Datura is indeed poisoned all over. It is very difficult to cure after meeting it. However, Datura does not have much effect on ordinary people. It only makes people unconscious for a while. However, this Datura is very harmful to pregnant women. If you smell it more, the child will be gone.”
After she finished speaking, the corner of her eyes glanced at Yun Yao. He said softly, “But, Very few people know about such a thing, Third sister still remembered, “The flower that was planted in the imperial palace was the flower that was attacked by the vassal states. Because it was too gorgeous, it was liked by the most favored Xian Concubine in the harem. At that time, the Xian Concubine’s Saint Family was strong, and the Jin Emperor gave the Mandala to Xian Concubine. Who knew that within two days, the Xian Concubine had miscarried like this? I heard that Xian Concubine’s baby was still a brother after it was born!”
Observing Yun Yao quietly, he saw that Yun Yao’s body couldn’t help but tremble. Especially the hand holding the handkerchief trembled the most.
Yun Xiao said coldly, “This is not the most important thing. I heard that because of this small birth, Concubine Xian’s body was damaged and she will no longer be able to have children. As a result, she lost her holy pet. How pitiful. In order to remedy this, Concubine Xian raised the Third Prince beside her, but she no longer has the glory of the past.” “His Highness the Ninth Prince told me about this matter. It is absolutely true. However, Third Sister must promise not to tell anyone about this matter. Otherwise, everyone who made trouble in the end will know about it. My face will definitely not come down.”
After hearing this, Yun Yao could not help but throw out the brocade handkerchief in her hand. Her face was filled with fear. She remembered that she had been holding the handkerchief that had provoked the Datura Flower for a long time. Even if she screamed, how could she still listen to what Yun Xiao said behind her?
Regardless of the fact that Yun Xiao was right beside him, she hurriedly got up from the bed and ran to the side of the wooden bucket. She dipped her hand into the wooden bucket and scrubbed it hard.
A faint smile flashed across the corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth. She also chased after him and said worriedly, “Third sister, what happened to you? Your face was still fine just now. Why is your face so embarrassed?”
Yun Yao’s lips trembled slightly twice. She looked at the handkerchief that she had thrown on the ground in horror and quickly stabilized her mind. “I’m fine, I’m just a little dizzy.”
Yun Xiao stepped forward and took out a handkerchief from her sleeve. She took out Yun Yao’s hand that was soaked in the wooden bucket and carefully wiped it clean. Then she smiled and said, “Third sister is going to be a mother. Why is she still so impatient? A pregnant woman cannot use cold water to clean her hands.”
Only then did Yun Yao feel her palms turn cold. Not only was it her palms, drops of sweat were rising from her back. However, she did not dare to wipe them off easily. She only smiled lightly and said, “Yes, I actually forgot. Thanks to fourth sister’s reminder.”
As she spoke, she pretended to be innocent and walked to the bedside. When she passed by the abandoned handkerchief, she turned around and laid down on the bed with Yun Xiao’s help.
Yun Xiao tucked the corner of Yun Yao’s bed. She slowly walked to the handkerchief that had been thrown away and gently picked it up. Then, she walked back to the bedside. “Third sister, this handkerchief is so exquisite. How could you be willing to throw it away like this? What a pity!”
When Yun Yao saw that Yun Xiao picked up the handkerchief and handed it to her, her body couldn’t help but shrink. She wanted to reach out and throw the handkerchief far away, but she was afraid that if she provoked the Datura branches on the handkerchief, she would be implicated in her small birth.
This child was too difficult to come by, and now, this child was his own life-saving talisman.
With this child by her side, even if the people of the Yun Clan locked themselves up, they would not dare to be rude to her. Moreover, after marrying into the Shen Clan, this child was also a life-saving talisman. She could use this child to fight for the position of wife.
Moreover, Shen Yingfan had already made an appointment with her. If she could design Yun Xiao, she would be able to be the wife of the Shen Family.
However, Yun Yao’s face suddenly became obscure and embarrassed. This handkerchief with Datura juice was given to her by Shen Yingfan, and Shen Yingfan did not tell her that the Datura flower would cause miscarriage.
There was a trace of injury in his eyes. In just a moment, this sadness disappeared. Few people knew that the Datura Flower would cause miscarriage. It was understandable that Shen Yingfan did not know.
Moreover, as long as she handed Yun Xiao over, her good days would arrive bit by bit in the future.
Yes, she still wanted to design Yun Xiao! And he wanted to frame Yun Xiao!
He didn’t expect that he would be led by Yun Xiao’s nose, and his expression immediately changed drastically. “No matter how exquisite this handkerchief is, it would be in vain if the person who gave it didn’t accept it.”
“Third sister, what do you say?” Yun Xiao looked at Yun Yao with curiosity and doubt on her face. However, she still pulled Yun Yao’s hand and placed it in her palm. “Third sister, no matter what, you can’t vent your anger on the handkerchief. Look, this handkerchief is made of good Yun Jin. It’s well-knit. Maybe someone will take it away the next time they give it to her.”
What Yun Yao was most afraid of was this handkerchief. Seeing that Yun Xiao was about to put it in her hand, she quickly shrunk back. She smiled awkwardly and said, “If fourth sister likes it, this handkerchief will be given to you. It can also be considered an apology for her previous mistake. What do you think of fourth sister?”
Yun Xiao looked at the handkerchief with a loving expression. Hearing Yun Yao’s words, the smile on her face immediately became even more joyful. Her well-knit fingers carefully scanned the veins of the handkerchief and finally landed on the body of an oriole. She smiled and said, “Is what Third Sister said true?” “Look at the oriole bird on this handkerchief. It’s embroidered perfectly. It really looks like it can fly. There’s also this pair of bright eyes. It’s no different from a real bird. Since Third Sister wants to give me such a good handkerchief, then I’ll be disrespectful to her.”
When Yun Yao saw that Yun Xiao’s fingers were groping for the threads, her entire heart lifted. The brocade on the handkerchief was fine, but the embroidery thread was soaked in the juice of the Datura flower. The oriole’s eyes, which were pressed down by Yun Xiao’s fingers, were also embedded with a small seed of the Datura flower.
She was deeply afraid that Yun Xiao would discover these strange things, but she saw that Yun Xiao’s face was filled with affection and did not mention anything about the Datura. Thinking about it, Yun Xiao did not know the secrets on the handkerchief, and what she knew should be from the book. She had never seen the Datura flower before.
With this thought, she heaved a sigh of relief, “Sister likes it, so she can keep it well.”
Yun Xiao had touched it for so long, and it shouldn’t be long before something bad happened. She could be considered to have completed her mission.
Yun Xiao happily put the handkerchief away in her arms. She raised her head and saw Yun Yao looking at her expectantly. She smiled and said, “I have already thanked Third Sister. Why is Third Sister looking at me like this?”
“It’s just that I haven’t seen you for a long time. Sister is a little different from before.” Yun Yao’s voice was gentle and slender, like a hypnotic drug.
Yun Xiao unconsciously yawned, She smiled and said, “I haven’t seen you for a long time. How can I have such a big change? However, speaking of which, I’m a little tired today.” After she finished speaking, she rubbed her eyes and said awkwardly, “Speaking of which, my eyes are really tight. I can’t. If Third Sister wants to be happy, I’ll visit Third Sister another day. It’s already late today, so I’ll go back first.”
Yun Yao looked at her with a face full of pity and did not ask for her to stay. She said, “Big sister heard about what happened today. This really made Fourth Sister suffer. Speaking of which, it’s already late today. I shouldn’t have called little sister over. However, I’m really worried about little sister. Seeing that little sister is fine now, I’m also relieved. Since little sister is tired, I’ll go back and rest early.”
Yun Xiao let out a sigh and yawned as she left. However, after turning around the screen, she fell straight down.
“Bang!” A hint of joy flashed through Yun Yao’s eyes. The tenderness on her face was replaced by a ferocious clang. Her exquisite face was filled with a trace of pride. She shouted loudly to the outside, “Come in quickly!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the door was pushed open from the outside.
However, the person who entered this time was not the maidservant who had brought Yun Xiao in. Instead, it was a man dressed in black. The man’s entire body was covered by a black scarf, and only a pair of eyes that flickered with cold light leaked out. Just a single glance would cause one’s entire body to become cold.
Yun Yao was slightly stunned. She had only heard from Shen Yingfan that someone would come to pick her up. However, she did not know who would come to pick her up. She was deeply afraid that someone would take advantage of the chaos and hurriedly said, “Who are you? Did Young Master Shen send you here?”
