"How could this be?" Bi Zhu covered her lips as she cried out in alarm and a hint of surprise surfaced on her calm face.
"When this medicine touches the skin, it will enter the body. The Aunt Li placed the medicine on her hand and then deliberately got close to me. An Lingge's black eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, "She knows that I must be on guard against her, so she deliberately took the ointment to attract my attention.
"But if that is the case, wouldn't Aunt Li be poisoned as well?" Bi Zhu did not understand, this person actually hated the young miss to such a degree, she would rather be poisoned than kill the young miss?
Of course the Aunt Li wouldn't be stupid enough to poison him with poison.
An Lingge's gaze fell upon the porcelain bottle, and a meaningful smile appeared on her face, "Aunt Li had first smeared the medicinal paste on his hands, and then she had smeared the poison on them. As long as you wash your hands when you return home, naturally nothing will happen to you."
Fortunately, her previous life had been by a fluke. She had taken Yao Lao as her master and learned how to cure poisons, or else she would really fall for Madam Li's schemes.
"Aunt Li is certain that I won't use the medicine that she sent over, so she directly gave me the antidote. Presumably, she was waiting for me to leave behind a scar and then come over to mock me."
While carefully smearing the medicine on her, Ming Xin observed the ointment and said: "This thing doesn't seem to be extraordinary. Is it actually an antidote?"
The matter regarding the medical knowledge was extremely complicated, it was impossible to explain it clearly in a short period of time, so An Lingge just smiled and did not speak, and did not ask anymore.
The next day, Bi Zhu still needed to go to the Jingdu Academy. Bi Zhu saw a shallow scar on An Lingge's forehead and could not help but frown, "The old mistress is too ruthless.
Even though she was a servant girl, she cared deeply for her own face. The madame's actions towards her own granddaughter were so cruel that it chilled one's heart.
An Lingge sat in front of the copper mirror, looking at Bi Zhu who was helping him with her makeup, her expression did not change, "Grandmother only came back to the ancestral home to live for the sake of her father's safety, not to mention how she only hurt me because of her anger, even if she got beaten up dozens of times for no reason, I cannot say that she is wrong."
When the old king passed away, although An Yingcheng was the eldest son, the people in the second and third branch rooms were all given to him by the old mistress, so how could he not have thoughts about the throne?
He had requested for the empress dowager to send him an imperial decree establishing An Yingcheng as the new King An. He was also afraid that his two youngest sons would not be willing to accept this and would bring their families to the ancestral home to prevent them from causing any more trouble in the capital.
Such kindness, An Yingcheng naturally remembered it in his heart. As the direct descendant of An Yingcheng, how could An Lingge complain to the old lady?
Bi Zhu had already known that the Old Mistress had contributed a lot to the Duke's Mansion, but now that she thought about it, she was still very angry. "Since the Old Mistress favors the Second Young Miss, doesn't that mean that she will have to act mighty in front of the Young Miss in the future?"
She remembered that the moment the Second Miss entered the mansion, she immediately gave the young lady a pouch with a musky scent.
He was such an unscrupulous person, yet he had the old mistress backing him up and was still bullying his young mistress.
"Who can guess the madame's thoughts?" An Lingge said blandly, but suddenly remembered something, and made Bi Zhu stop, "Go and bring the crystal pearl forehead pendant that you bought from the Western Regions over."
Bi Zhu immediately walked over to the jewelry box and put the pendant between her eyebrows into An Lingge's hair. The pendant was hanging down right in front of her forehead, blocking the light wound.
Because he and An Lingxue had quarreled yesterday, An Lingge did not see An Lingxue at the entrance of the residence today. It was likely that she had already sat in a carriage and gone to the academy.
She didn't think much of it. The two of them weren't on the same side anyway, and for the sake of camouflage, they had been on the same side for quite some time.
Now that An Lingxue didn't hide that kind of thought, and no longer hypocritically pulled her up to pretend to be a deep sister, she was happy to be at ease.
An Lingge got off the carriage and walked into the academy. Before she even sat down, she saw someone pointing at her and mumbling something.
She frowned, but didn't say anything as she sat down on her seat.
When the woman pointing at her saw her enter, she did not restrain herself. Instead, she spoke even louder.
"I wonder why the Emperor set up such a Jingdu Academy, causing me to sit with those people who don't know what's going on. It's really annoying."
An Lingxue was seated beside the lady, upon hearing her words, she immediately pulled on her sleeves, "Qin Qin, don't talk anymore, everyone is studying here, it's fate."
Who wants to have that kind of fate with her?" Xu Xin snorted, her already unkind face became even more grim as she sneered, "She was actually the direct descendant of Prince An. To think that she would treat her little cousin like this, without even the slightest bit of grace." If she was not a reincarnated person with a higher status than you, how could she have humiliated you like this?
An Lingge looked over after hearing what she said and saw that she was a unfamiliar woman. She had never met her before, and only yesterday, when Teacher Deng introduced her did she know that this person's surname was Xu.
However, An Lingxue and her relationship seemed to be really close. Even though she was saying some words of dissuasion, her expression was completely different.
Her eyes darted around, the smile on her lips cold without any warmth. "Miss Xu, if I remember correctly, you and I don't have any relationship. Why are you so against me?"
Xu Xin looked at An Lingge as if she was looking at some unforgivable person. Her lips twitched, and when An Lingge's beautiful face entered her eyes, it caused a look of jealousy to flash past her eyes, but on her face, there was a look of righteousness, "Your skin is too thick, I thought you did that kind of thing yesterday, you definitely wouldn't dare come to the academy today. So it turns out some people don't know shame, and won't think of it."
The words "An Lingge on the left" was unclear, "An Lingge on the right" was extremely shameless, causing the people around her to be extremely angry, and their eyes were filled with coldness.
"This early in the morning, Miss Xu already said that I do not know the reason why I feel ashamed. I wonder what I have done to make Miss Xu look at me like this?" She stood up from her seat and walked step by step towards Xu Xin.
An Lingge was taller than the average girl, and standing in front of Xu Xin made her feel even more pressured.
Everyone's gaze turned subtle, as if they were all waiting to watch a good show.
Xu Qin also didn't think that An Lingge would actually go against her.
