How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 622: Some People Aren’t Even Worth Being Dogs

Chapter 622: Chapter 622: Some People Aren’t Even Worth Being Dogs

But those guards had already made their move, showing no mercy, each strike with full force, and the cries of her subordinates soon reached her ears.

Pei Lingling’s face turned even more unsightly.

Her expression was a bit cold: "Princess Consort, acting like this, you’re truly not giving me any face."

Pei Shu’er chuckled: "Sister, what are you talking about? If I truly didn’t give you any face, Aunt Xiang Hui would have disappeared back then, and when she returned, she was carrying you."

"This matter, perhaps no one has ever told you, right?"

Pei Lingling’s face looked bad, and she couldn’t help but look at Pei Yu.

"Father, look at Sister, can such things be talked about in jest?"

Pei Shu’er chuckled softly: "So sister, is this a case of only allowing the magistrate to set fires while the common people can’t light a lamp? It was sister who brought up this topic, wasn’t it?"

Pei Lingling gritted her teeth and endured, now she was counting on Pei Yu to stand up for her.

Yet Pei Yu merely glanced at them indifferently, not speaking. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Pei Lingling felt extremely awkward, and she also realized that Pei Yu’s attitude towards her had suddenly turned cold.

Clearly before, she was the daughter Pei Yu liked the most in the Pei Mansion.

There’s no reason for her status to decline now that she became an Imperial Concubine.

Pei Shu’er laughed: "Let’s go to the front hall and have a cup of tea, so a kind person like sister doesn’t have to feel upset."

Upon reaching the front hall, Pei Shu’er brought up a cup of tea.

They both sat at the main seat, one on the left, the other on the right, with the tea placed on the same table.

Taking advantage of Pei Shu’er’s inattention, Pei Lingling put poison into Pei Shu’er’s cup.

Just as Pei Shu’er dared to strike those servants before, she dared to poison Pei Shu’er.

This poison wasn’t anything exotic, it just caused unbearable pain when it took effect.

She could already envision Pei Shu’er crawling at her feet, bowing and scraping.

She watched as Pei Shu’er smilingly picked up the teacup and turned to smile at her.

That demeanor, as if wholeheartedly trusting her.

She watched as Pei Shu’er brought the cup to her lips, drinking the tea little by little.

Pei Lingling wore an intense smile, taking a sip of her own tea.

Pei Shu’er’s lips curled slightly: "Has sister remembered something, why are you smiling so happily?"

Pei Lingling looked into Pei Shu’er’s eyes, with a hint of malice and more mockery.

"Because sister thought of her enemy, about to become a dog at my feet. Sister, tell me, isn’t that worth celebrating?"

After she said that, Pei Shu’er also laughed.

"Of course it’s worth celebrating, but sister, you must also consider the person. Some people don’t even qualify to become a dog."

Once these words were spoken, the smile on Pei Lingling’s face deepened.

"Sister is indeed right."

Then she silently started counting the time in her heart.

She had heard from Lin Shiyao that this poison would take effect in a quarter of an hour.

She just sat beside Pei Shu’er, quietly waiting for her reaction.

As the time for the poison to take effect drew near, her palms were slick with excitement.

Since Pei Shu’er entered the capital, she had always been overshadowed by her, but now was finally her chance to rise.

Seeing Pei Shu’er drink a few more sips of tea, Pei Lingling could hardly hold back her laughter; the more tea Pei Shu’er drank now, the worse it would be for her later.

She also drank a few sips, quietly waiting for Pei Shu’er to display symptoms of being poisoned.

As the time drew near, she gradually noticed something wrong with herself.

No, why was her abdomen starting to hurt faintly?

Why was this happening?

Could it be that her monthly cycle was coming?

As the pain intensified, she broke out in a sweat on her forehead, and the abdominal pain grew more severe.

She bent over, while Pei Shu’er seemingly ignored it, focusing on eating pastries, teasing Tang Chong.

Her little monkey was so happy that it cackled with laughter.

It wasn’t until Pei Lingling was in such pain that she slid off her chair that Pei Shu’er finally looked at her.

She let out a soft "Ah", as if she had just realized.

"Sister, what’s the matter?"

Pei Lingling couldn’t utter a word; she now knew that she was the one poisoned, not Pei Shu’er.

Where did it go wrong, why did it turn out this way?

She had been watching that cup of tea the whole time and didn’t see Pei Shu’er switch the tea.

Pei Lingling still didn’t know what had happened?

Why was it that the cup of tea clearly drunk by Pei Shu’er ended up causing her the pain?

Then, she saw the concerned look on Pei Shu’er’s face.

"Sister, what’s wrong? Is there any discomfort?"

Pei Lingling lowered her head, her forehead visibly perspiring.

Pei Shu’er said: "Someone, hurry and invite Divine Doctor Xue over, and say my sister, Imperial Concubine, has been poisoned."

"No, call several more doctors, one might not be enough."

Listening to Pei Shu’er’s urgent tone, anyone who didn’t know their history might have thought Pei Lingling was her most beloved sister.

Pei Shu’er’s face was full of vexation.

"Sister, think carefully, did you eat anything you shouldn’t have?"

Pei Lingling almost wished to scratch Pei Shu’er’s face.

Moreover, her poisoning scheme absolutely could not be known by others.

If that happened, she would truly lose all face and dignity.

She wanted to call for Xianghua, but right now Xianghua, having just been beaten, was summoned to the backyard to recuperate.

In name, it was for rest, but who knows what tricks Pei Shu’er was playing again.

She could only hope for the doctor to come quickly.

She saw that the doctors had lined up in a long queue, and Pei Lingling now had been placed on the Imperial Concubine Couch.

The order of entry was by the sequence of arrival.

The younger doctors were quicker on their feet, so they stood in the front.

They lined up to examine Pei Lingling, but none could diagnose anything.

Pei Lingling fainted from pain several times, but each time was painfully awakened, watching as these doctors stood by, handling her as if she were livestock.

It wasn’t until Divine Doctor Xue came along that he actually discerned something.

"Your Highness, this poison is unique to the Southern Border, used specifically to control people."

Pei Lingling raged: "Divine Doctor Xue, quickly treat me!"

Divine Doctor Xue, however, shook his head: "Your Highness, even I can’t help with this. The recipes of this poison vary, and so do the antidotes."

Pei Lingling now loathed Lin Shiyao deeply and of course, hated Pei Shu’er even more.

Just at this moment, Xianghua finally recuperated, quickly coming out, pointing at the people of Prince Zhan Mansion and cursing.

"Who gave you dogs the gall to poison our Imperial Concubine?"

Pei Shu’er put down the tea cup, looking calmly at Yinxing.

"Yinxing, slap her mouth; does our Prince Zhan Mansion allow a mere servant to act so impudently?"

Xianghua, having just been beaten, was immediately slapped again.

By the time Yinxing released Xianghua, her face was swollen like a pig’s head.
