Chapter 440 Biyue Confesses
Biyue patted her aching forehead. Yes, she remembered. She had been kicked by Biyun, and then... then she felt dizzy, her whole body convulsed and ached, and then she fainted.
Biyue suddenly turned her gaze to Biyun. It was Biyun. She felt as if she had been pricked by something when she was kicked. She remembered that Biyun was poisonous.
Biyun was arranged by Consort De for the Fourth Princess. Before entering the palace, she had learned some medical skills from her father.
It was Biyun who wanted to kill him—no, it was the princess, the princess who wanted to silence him.
Why? She had already taken the blame for the princess, so why would the princess still want to kill her? Did she not trust her?
Biyue was deeply saddened. She knew she was just a servant girl, her life and death in the hands of her master. So when the princess wanted her to take the blame, she did not object.
But wouldn't the princess even give her a little bit of time at the very end? She thought that since she had been with the princess since she was a child, the princess would have some feelings for her, but now she realized that she had been thinking too much.
Biyue slowly raised her head, her gaze falling once again on the Fourth Princess's beautiful yet indifferent face. The Fourth Princess's eyes, which should have been bright and captivating, were now coldly fixed on her, devoid of any emotion, only burning with intense rage.
This rage seemed to devour Biyue completely, causing her to shiver involuntarily. Could it be... that the Fourth Princess so desperately wanted her dead? Yes, what was she thinking? It was the Fourth Princess who wanted to kill her. Thinking of this, a trace of hatred rose in Biyue's heart.
She couldn't understand why her fate was so tragic. Was it because of her lowly status that even her right to survive was so insignificant? Why could the Fourth Princess be so high and mighty, arbitrarily deciding the life and death of others? And she, Biyue, was destined to be trampled on like an ant?
The more she thought about it, the more wronged and resentful she felt. Biyue bit her lip tightly, trying hard not to let the tears in her eyes fall. However, that trace of hatred spread wildly in her heart like weeds, and she couldn't suppress it at all.
Xiao Siyue observed Biyue's series of reactions and expressions. It seemed that Biyue harbored hatred towards the Fourth Princess, so she decided to add fuel to the fire.
"Biyue, do you know how you fainted?"
Upon hearing the sound, Biyue turned her gaze to Xiao Siyue.
"You've been poisoned with aconite powder. Do you know what aconite powder is? If you're poisoned with aconite powder, you'll experience dizziness, numbness and convulsions, difficulty breathing, and then fainting, dying within half an hour."
Looking at Biyue's trembling body and terrified expression, Xiao Siyue continued, "But don't worry, you're alright now, the poison has been neutralized."
"Oh, by the way, do you know how you were poisoned? Who wanted to kill you? Is it someone behind it all?"
Upon hearing Xiao Siyue's string of words, the Fourth Princess angrily rebuked her, "You audacious and shameless wench! You ignorant fool, how dare you plot against Princess Zhaoning! Now that you have committed such a grave crime, not only do you not repent, but you even dare to attempt suicide out of guilt! Don't you care about your own brother at all? Such a selfish, heartless, and ungrateful person is simply unforgivable! If it weren't for your past diligence, I would have torn you to pieces long ago!"
Biyue suddenly laughed, a wild laugh: "Hahaha..."
Is the Fourth Princess trying to threaten her with her younger brother? Too bad, she dislikes him terribly; she wishes he were dead. She entered the palace as a maid at such a young age all thanks to this brother.
The Fourth Princess glared angrily: "Biyue, why aren't you confessing your crime yet? What are you laughing at?"
"Hahaha, I think the Fourth Princess has threatened the wrong person. My brother's life is not important to me at all. Kill him if you want. If you do, I will thank the princess."
"What did you say?" The Fourth Princess was startled and somewhat panicked when she saw Biyue's crazed smile, feeling that Biyue was about to say something she shouldn't.
"Haha! Your Highness, look at yourself now. Are you feeling fear? As a noble and high-ranking princess, you are usually so arrogant and proud! Who would have thought that someone as noble as you would ever feel fear?"
"Biyue, how dare you! How could you be so disrespectful to the princess?" Biyun thought Biyue had gone mad; how could she dare to mock the princess in public?
Biyue stared intently at Biyun, who was still defending the Fourth Princess. A mocking sneer appeared on her lips: "Biyun, look at my miserable state now! Did you ever think that one day you would end up like me? We two sisters are nothing more than sharp blades in the Fourth Princess's hands. She will pick them up and swing them around when she needs them. Once they lose their usefulness, they will be discarded like scrap metal."
Looking at Biyue's current state, Biyun suddenly froze, feeling a chill run down his spine. He glanced timidly at the Fourth Princess, only to be terrified by her sinister gaze.
No, the Fourth Princess wouldn't treat her like that. Biyue was like that because she was too stupid. She couldn't even do this simple thing right. She deserved to die.
"Biyue, shut up! If you dare to talk nonsense again, do you believe I'll rip out your tongue?" The Fourth Princess narrowed her eyes, her gaze full of threat.
Biyue looked up at the Fourth Princess and smiled, "Heh, of course I believe you. Why wouldn't I believe you? But before that, I want everyone to know how ruthless and vicious you, the dignified Fourth Princess, are."
"Biyue, what are you going to do?" The Fourth Princess was anxious, afraid that Biyue would say something that would be detrimental to her.
"The Fourth Princess will find out soon."
After speaking, Biyue ignored the Fourth Princess, who was seething with hatred for her, and instead kowtowed to Xiao Siyue.
"Princess Zhaoning, I'm so sorry. It was my fault that you almost got into trouble." Biyue's apology was very sincere; she truly felt sorry for Princess Zhaoning.
Xiao Siyue accepted her apology, but that didn't mean she would forgive her. If she hadn't been prepared, she would have fallen into her trap.
Although she knew that Biyue was just someone who followed orders, Biyue had indeed taken action.
"I will not forgive you. When the time comes, I will send you to the Jingzhao Prefecture, where you will be punished for whatever crime you are guilty of."
Biyue smiled and said, "Thank you, Princess Zhaoning. I have no face to ask for your forgiveness. I admit that I did it, but I want to tell you that I did it because the Fourth Princess ordered me to do so."
