C23 Scald

By the time kitchen had brewed the Eight Treasures Tea and brought it over, Jia Biruo's charming face had long since lost all color.

Gu Qingli lowered his head and brewed his tea Gu, as if there was something special inside that was worth studying.

With great difficulty, Jia Biruo placed the old tea on the tray brought over by the maidservant. He forcefully carried a new tea and smiled: "Bi Ruo greets Sister lateral concubine.

Only then did Xin Ziyao pretend to go and receive the tea Gu.

At this time, Jia Biruo's hand was shaking extremely badly, but who knew that Xin Ziyao actually caught it without using any force. That Gu tea immediately overturned in Xin Ziyao's hand, and a small half of it fell onto Xin Ziyao's hands and legs, as the two people screamed at the same time.

Xin Ziyao was actually not burned to the ground, the angle of her fall was extremely clever, no one could tell what she did, only Gu Qingli realised that when she was receiving the tea Gu, her pinky had pointed towards the bottom of the tea Gu, thus the Gu was flipped towards Jia Biruo's hand.

In the end, Xin Ziyao complained first and cried out, "My prince, I don't dare to drink this tea anymore. How is this a toast to tea?

She first got up and half-knelt beside Xiao Yixiu's knees to cry and plead. Xiao Yixiu stroked her shoulders and comforted her a little, while Jia Biruo who was crying till his eyes were full of tears, had a bunch of blisters on his red and swollen hands.

"Alright, alright, what's going on?" Gu Qingli finally regained his senses, got up and used the kernel to wipe Jia Biruo's hands. As he blew, he said coldly: "Since the ancient times, aside from the orders from the parents and the words from the matchmaker, only the main chamber has been opened. This wangfei has already drunk the tea, so Cinnamomum is being too fussy, so it's fine if you don't drink this cup of tea. Madame Jia was clearly unintentional, why do you need to make such a big fuss over nothing? "

Just as Xin Ziyao was crying excitedly, she suddenly choked. She stopped crying and glanced at venomously, then lowered her head.

Gu Qingli knew that she had already hated the matter of her abortion, so he was not afraid of her glance. He replied slowly, "Please wait on the Duke, you can't let this small matter leave all the guests in the hall alone.

With Gu Qingli's support, Jia Biruo entered the room and clenched his teeth tightly. His eyes were filled with hatred.

Gu Qingli took out a box of ointment and slowly applied it to her, then coldly said: "Now you know that it's not easy to enter the Duke Palace? Endure it, you have not yet endured this suffering to the end. "

"This concubine understands. I'll listen to what wangfei says."

"If you want to gain a foothold, you have to first get rid of all the people who are blocking your way. Remember, you have to connect the roots ?"

Madame Jia took a deep breath, revealing a resentful expression, he took the ointment and bit his lower lip: "I will remember this firmly."

Jia Biruo staggered in while holding on to his sore leg, but Xin Ziyao had already returned to his seat and was sitting down, looking at her arrogantly.

Gu Qingli said, "Once Bi Ruo enters the gates of the Duke Palace, no matter who is willing or not, she will be the Duke's wife." She looked around and conveniently swept her eyes over the few wives standing beside Xin Ziyao. At least two or three places where her eyes were cold and harsh, they all shivered.

"Go get a cup of tea."

Jia Biruo poured a cup of Eight Treasures Tea, and heard Gu Qingli say coldly: "Cinnamomum, if you want to accept this cup of tea, I'll continue to pass it to you. If you don't like it, she can pass it to Madam Ling."

Below Cinnamomum were his wives, Ling Yueer, Yue Gu He, Qin Caisang and Ji Jiang Shi Yu. At this moment, they were all sitting there and watching, not daring to say a word.

According to Xin Ziyao's instructions, they had planned to add insult to injury after lesson with Jia Biruo, but with Gu Qingli's imposing manner, they were scared to death.

If Xin Ziyao did not accept the cup of tea, he would not be able to stop the Madame Jia from entering the room, and would instead admit that he was neglected by the Madame Jia. But if he did receive the cup, the Madame Jia would not even be able to stand in front of her and drink the tea.

Xiao Yixiu lightly coughed, and said: "How could I not be magnanimous to Cinnamomum? "It's just that your appearance doesn't seem like it's the custom to toast tea."

Jia Biruo then half squatted down and offered the tea to them with no lack of courtesy at all.

Xin Ziyao bitterly accepted the tea, and she then smoothly poured tea for every single lady. Only then did Jiang Shiyu, who had a lower position than her, also pour tea for her, and then forget about it.

Someone laughed during the banquet: "Prince Mo's wangfei's rules are really big!"

After the nanny helped the newbie into the bridal room, Xiao Yixiu took a seat and toasted. The person who had spoken previously stood up and gave a low laugh, "My prince, this Chief Imperial Concubine of yours is truly a formidable person!"

Xiao Yixiu smiled without batting an eyelid. This person was General Ling Yun, who had once served as his deputy general and was on friendly terms with him, hence he dared to speak in such a manner.

After the round of toast, Xiao Yixiu pushed open the door to the bridal room. Seeing that both of Jia Biruo's hands were starting to foam, and that she was no longer able to hold the wine cup, Xiao Yixiu made her maidservant carry it for her and drink a cup of wine.

"How can it be like this? Tomorrow, I'll get Yanyu to prescribe some medicine for you."

"Thank you, Prince."

"Don't hate Ziyao, she didn't do it on purpose."

"Yes."

Xiao Yixiu saw her lower her head and flash a venomous smile. The more he said that, the more Jia Biruo hated him in his heart, which was why it was making such a ruckus, right?

After the cup of wine entered his stomach, Jia Biruo gradually fainted. A misconception appeared in his eyes, he felt that Xiao Yixiu was gently hugging him and going to the wedding bed with him. He could not help but reveal a gentle smile.

"Let her rest well." Xiao Yixiu's face did not reveal a single trace of a smile, as he watched Yun Er help her up onto the bed before turning around and leaving.

As Jia Biruo applied the medicine, he looked at his hands that were already beginning to rot and gritted his teeth to bear the pain.

When she returned on the third day of her wedding, her hands were like this. She didn't know how to feel sorry for her mother.

Xiao Yixiu entered the door, and upon seeing her in such a state, he was startled: "How did it turn out like this?"

Jia Biruo immediately lifted his sleeves to test his tears, as though he wanted to hide his hands, and forcefully smiled: "I'm fine."

"Didn't I tell you to get the medicine from Yanyu?"

Yes, the Liu Gongzi said that they did not have anything ready, and when they finished smearing it, they sent it over to us. After smearing it for two days, it became worse, maybe because the injury was too severe, or maybe it would be better if they smeared it more.

Xiao Yixiu said: "Where is the ointment? Let this king see it."

Jia Biruo pointed to the box of ointment on the table, he took it and smelled it, then frowned: "Yun Er, go and invite Miss Li Yue to come and see."

In the blink of an eye, Gu Qingli had already arrived. Before she even took out the medicine, she only looked at Jia Biruo's hands and asked: "What did you put on your hands to make it look like this?"

"It's the medicine that the Liu Gongzi sent."

Gu Qingli took the medicine in the box in Xiao Yixiu's hands and smelled it: "The medicine here is made from Corrosive Bone Corrosive Muscles. Not only is it slightly poisonous, it can also cause infection and after being smeared for another two days, Madame Jia's hands will be crippled."

Jia Biruo turned pale with fright, he took two steps back and his eyes became watery in an instant, with a pitiful look on his face: "This ? How was this possible? Liu Gongzi and I have never known each other, and the doctor was kind, how could he have poisoned me? "

"Unfortunately, Liu Yanyu is also waiting outside. Let him in." Gu Qingli looked outside. She had come prepared, how could she not invite Liu Yanyu to follow her.
