Chapter 176: Poisoning Yourself
Mama Sun led the way, Bai Suxin followed, and the two walked towards the gate of the palace.
Bai Suxin quietly crushed the poison pill in his sleeve and carefully covered his wrist.
This poison pill can penetrate into the bloodstream, so the effect is extremely fast, but it does not do much harm to the human body, and it does not have much effect.
At most, it makes people pale, sweaty on their foreheads, and unsteady on their feet.
The reason why Bai Suxin wanted to use it was just to let Grandma Sun see her poor health.
Whether it is entering the palace or being assigned to marry a royal nobleman, he will not choose a sick man.
"Bai girl, the slave and maid are sent here, you go slowly, ......" Grandma Sun said as she turned around, and was shocked when she saw Bai Suxin's appearance.
What's wrong with the White Girl?
"There's Grandma Lao." Bai Suxin gasped with difficulty, leaning against the wall and standing trembling.
Qianqiu, who was guarding the palace gate, hurriedly ran over, held Bai Suxin's hand, and said anxiously: "Girl, are you okay?" β
Although she knew that the girl had only used the poison pill, when she saw the girl's uncomfortable appearance at this time, she began to feel sorry for the girl again.
Tears rolled out of Qianqiu's eyes, and he hurriedly took out the small porcelain bottle in his sleeve and took out two pills to feed Bai Suxin.
Grandma Sun was naturally confused, isn't the white girl still fine, is this a sudden illness?
Under Mama Sun's speculation, Bai Suxin's face gradually regained its bloody color.
"Grandma Sun, if there is nothing else, I will go back first." Bai Suxin bit her lip and said weakly.
Worried that Bai Suxin would suddenly faint, Mama Sun hurriedly bowed down and said, "Miss Bai, go slowly." β
Then, Qianqiu supported Bai Suxin and walked towards his carriage.
It wasn't until she got into the carriage that Qianqiu couldn't bear to ask, "Girl, are you uncomfortable?" β
Bai Suxin still couldn't lift his head, shook his head reluctantly, and then closed his eyes slightly, closing his eyes to recuperate.
Qianqiu collected her sadness and instructed the coachman: "Go home." β
The carriage moved slowly, and it was not until it was far away from the palace that Bai Suxin really breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Queen Mother didn't say anything, she could still understand that the Queen Mother definitely didn't summon her just to make kites.
When he arrived at the front of the mansion, Bai Suxin's complexion had almost recovered.
Qianqiu's brows tightened, and she couldn't bear to ask, "Girl, is it worth it?" β
In order to avoid the queen mother's marriage, the girl hurt her body like this.
For others to ask for something that is unwanted, the girl is so uncommon.
Bai Suxin smiled and did not answer.
Of course it's worth it for her, she doesn't care what others think, because what others think has nothing to do with her.
She lives her life.
In front of the White House.
Bai Suxin raised her head and found that Qi Tong was waiting in front of the door.
"Auntie-" Bai Su was shocked, she didn't expect her stepmother to be here.
Besides, no one knows when she will return, and the weather is still a little cold.
Seeing Bai Suxin walking down from the carriage, Qi Tong hurriedly greeted him and said with concern: "Is Xin'er okay?" Get on in. β
Bai Suxin nodded with emotion, she didn't expect her stepmother to wait for her here.
It wasn't until she walked back to the courtyard that Bai Suxin spoke: "Auntie, don't worry, I'm fine." β
Qi Tong smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay." β
Only then did Bai Suxin think that in fact, when she entered the palace to see the Queen Mother, not only would she be afraid, but her aunt and father would also be worried about her.
Father and eldest mother have now agreed to stop urging her to get married, but they didn't expect the queen mother to kill her.
Qi Tong sent Bai Suxin to the door of the Tassel Garden, and explained: "After Xin'er rests for a while, let's go to the front yard for lunch." Today the family got together for a meal. β
Bai Su was shocked and said in surprise: "Is today an important day?" β
You must know that the Bai family has always disliked getting together, even if they eat together, it is a festival or something important, and there is no reason to gather like today.
Qi Tong shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "It's nothing, just thinking about everyone having a meal together." β
She didn't ask Bai Suxin a word about the summons of the Queen Mother, but every sentence was for Bai Suxin's sake.
As an elder, Qi Tong understands that he can't casually mention unhappy things in front of his juniors.
Besides, her status is limited, even if Bai Suxin sees that something unpleasant really happened to the Queen Mother, she can't even help Bai Suxin get ahead.
All she can do is gather the family together and make Bai Suxin feel that her family is always there.
Even if the Queen Mother really decreed marriage, the Bai family would always stand on Bai Suxin's side.
After a brief tidying, Bai Suxin took Qianqiu to the front yard.
On the way, I met Li Jia, who was also going to the front yard.
"Third cousin." Li Jia greeted with a fake smile.
Bai Suxin smiled lightly, nodded slightly, and then opened his eyes.
She was in a bad mood at this time, and Li Jia had better not provoke her, otherwise she wasn't sure what she would do.
After Li Jia knew that she could only marry into the Zhennan Mansion as a concubine by relying on her own ability, she was indeed much more honest.
If nothing else, at least it has returned to its former humility and courtesy, rather than being arrogant.
Li Jia and Bai Suxin walked to the front yard left and right, and neither of them said a word along the way.
Li Jia's face was traceless, and she didn't seem to be happy or angry on the surface.
"Third girl, cousin, please come inβ" Chaolu, the maid in the front yard, hurriedly led the two to the front hall.
In the front hall, everyone in the Bai family was already seated.
After Bai Suxin and Li Jia found a place to sit down, lunch officially began.
"Today is just a light meal for the family, so don't be too restrained." Bai Yitian said with a smile.
Bai Suxin lowered her eyes and was silent, always recalling the words and deeds of the Empress Dowager Tong today.
What does Empress Dowager Tong mean, why can't she understand it?
"Xin'er, how does it feel to enter the palace today?" Bai Haozhi asked with a smile on his eyebrows.
Bai Suxin raised her head and glanced at him, although she was not very happy, she still replied: "It's nothing, the Queen Mother heard that I did a good kite and asked me to make a kite for Princess Hexi." β
Everyone was stunned, and the Queen Mother summoned the three girls just to make kites?
Bai Haozhi couldn't help laughing and exclaimed: "It seems that the third sister's craftsmanship is really incomparable to the palace maids in the palace." β
Bai Suxin gave him a fierce look this time, which made Bai Haozhi tremble.
Why is the third sister's eyes so sharp, did he say something wrong?
Bai Suxin couldn't help but sigh, it seems that he still has to find something to do for his eldest brother, it's not good to be too idle.
Speaking of which, although the eldest brother has been at home for a short time, he has already begun to talk boringly.
Bai Suxin gave Xie Fengqing a look, Xie Fengqing was about to open his mouth to play a round, but Li Jia took the lead and asked: "Cousin-in-law, I don't know about Jia'er, did my cousin-in-law go to the palace to ask?" β
