Chapter 953 - 952: Do You Want Me to Just Come Out and Say It?

Chapter 953: Chapter 952: Do You Want Me to Just Come Out and Say It?

Chu Qianli was somewhat stunned.

This was the first time the Empress had inadvertently revealed her inner strength in front of her.

Just now, her step over here, despite her agony, was still as fast as lightning!

The strength with which she gripped Chu Qianli’s wrist, due to the Empress’s pain nearly driving her insane, was also fierce and precise!

Her movements, undoubtedly extraordinary!

Unexpectedly, the Empress turned out to be a hidden master. Did Feng Qihe know this?

Turning back to look at Feng Qihe, to her surprise, there was also a flash of astonishment in his eyes.

Even Prince Qihe had been kept in the dark!

What secrets were still hidden behind the Empress?

"Chu Qianli! I’m asking you a question! Did you poison me? Are those medicines toxic?"

The Empress grimaced in pain.

Her abdominal pain had been present for a long time; it had been a dull ache for many years.

But never had it been as unbearable as these last two days!

The grip on Chu Qianli’s wrist tightened even more.

Chu Qianli’s delicate wrist was almost crushed by her.

But the fact that the girl could still remain composed was also something that surprised the Empress.

Indeed, she was no ordinary woman!

"Empress, if you crush my hand, I’m afraid no one will be able to alleviate your abdominal pain."

At her words, the Empress was startled and quickly released most of her grip, but still did not let go.

"What do you mean by that... Have you indeed poisoned me?"

This time, she had really misplaced her trust in this wretch!

Unexpectedly, under the guise of treating her, she had secretly poisoned her!

"How dare you!"

"Empress, when did I ever say I had poisoned you? If you trust me, I will show you now, but if you don’t trust me..."

Chu Qianli’s eyes darkened as she sneered, "Given your current condition, you might not be able to defeat me."

Feng Qihe, standing behind her, felt suddenly uncomfortable.

This girl... Did she really have to talk to his mother like that? Couldn’t she be more polite?

She was completely disregarding his presence.

"Lili, I am still here," he reminded her, not pleased.

Even if his mother could not defeat her, did she really think she could leave this place unscathed all by herself?

"You wouldn’t want to hurt me, either. If we fought, you’d be hesitant and might not win," Chu Qianli retorted coldly.

Feng Qihe’s face stiffened, he felt angry and wanted to retort, but found himself unable to.

This infuriating girl had him pinned down!

The Empress was almost spitting blood with fury: "You..."

"Empress, the medicine I gave you is indeed just that, not poison. Your current condition is also within my expectations, you are improving."

"Let go..." The Empress, clenching her teeth, struggled to maintain her last bit of dignity, trying not to curse.

But she was in such pain, and this was called improvement?

Only a fool would believe her.

"This happened over a decade ago, if I’m not mistaken, about eighteen or nineteen years back. That’s when the root of the Empress’s illness took hold."

"What?" Upon hearing this, the Empress’s face changed, and she almost forgot her pain.

"How... how dare you... investigate me?"

"I haven’t investigated anything, I simply took your pulse and discovered the root of the illness. If the Empress would like me to continue to diagnose and treat you, it would be best to clear the room first."

Chu Qianli gently shook her hand.

At this point, the Empress was completely taken aback and let her easily break free from her grip.

Still with a rigid expression, she said, "Chu Qianli..."

"How many people do you want to know about this?"

Chu Qianli walked over to the bed and patted the bedstead, "I wonder if Prince Qihe has also been kept in the dark? Do you want me to just come out with it?"
